OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of CYP2C19 gene polymorphism on platelet function and inflammatory cytokines in elderly patients with ischemic stroke， and to analyze potential factors associated with poor prognosis. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on elderly patients with ischemic stroke admitted to our hospital from June 2024 to June 2025， wh o underwent CYP2C19 genotype testing and received antiplatelet therapy with clopidogrel. The levels of platelet function indicators and inflammatory cytokines before and after treatment were compared among patients with different metabolic phenotypes. Based on the prognosis at 6 months post-treatment， patients were divided into poor prognosis group and good prognosis group. Univariate analysis was performed on general data， metabolic phenotype， the levels of platelet function indicators and inflammatory cytokines. Variables with P ＜0.05 and the levels of inflammatory cytokines before treatment were included in a multivariate Logistic regression analysis to identify independent risk factors for poor prognosis. Multiple linear regression was used to further analyze the relationship between metabolic phenotypes and inflammatory cytokines. RESULTS A total of 448 elderly patients with ischemic stroke were included； among them， 162 cases were normal metabolic phenotype， 218 were intermediate metabolic phenotype， and 68 were poor metabolic phenotype. No rapid or ultrarapid metabolic phenotypes were observed. After treatment， platelet aggregation rate， the levels of P-selectin and platelet activated complex-1 （PAC-1）， high-sensitivity C-reactive Protein （hs-CRP）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the normal metabolic phenotype group， intermediate metabolic phenotype group， and poor metabolic phenotype group （except for platelet aggregation rate， and the levels of P-selectin and PAC-1 in the poor metabolic phenotype group） were significantly lower than those before treatment in the same group. Moreover， the above indicators in the normal metabolic phenotype group were significantly lower than those in the intermediate and poor metabolic phenotype groups at the corresponding time， and the levels of platelet function indicators in the intermediate metabolic phenotype group were significantly lower than those in the poor metabol ic phenotype group at the corresponding time （ P ＜0.05）. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses showed that combined with hypertension， combined with diabetes mellitus， and intermediate or poor metabolic genotypes were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in elderly patients with ischemic stroke （ P ＜0.05）. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that serum levels of hs-CRP， IL-1β， IL-6 and TNF-α before treatment were significantly higher in patients with intermediate and poor metabolic genotypes compared to those with normal metabolic genotype （ P ＜0.05）， with a greater magnitude of increase in inflammatory cytokines observed in the patients with poor metabolic genotype. CONCLUSIONS The elderly ischemic stroke patients with CYP2C19 intermediate and poor metabolic genotypes have poor inhibition effect on platelet and higher levels of inflammatory cytokines than normal metabolic genotype； CYP2C19 gene polymorphism， and in combination with hypertension and diabetes， can be used as independent predictors of poor prognosis.

ObjectiveTo clarify the expression of TRIM28 in non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia （AML） and its correlation with clinical indicators and prognosis， and to further explore the effect of TRIM28 expression levels on the proliferation and apoptosis of AML cells using small interfering RNA. MethodsThe GSE34577 dataset was analyzed using R software to compare TRIM28 expression between healthy controls and non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia （AML） patients. Clinical samples from non-M3 AML patients were collected， with TRIM28 expression levels measured using real-time quantitative PCR （qPCR）. The analysis focused on correlations between TRIM28 expression and various clinical indicators， treatment efficacy， and patient prognosis. Furthermore， small interfering RNA （siRNA） technology was employed to downregulate TRIM28 expression in human primary AML cells （HL60 cell line）. The effects on cell proliferation and apoptosis were then assessed through CCK-8 assays and flow cytometry， respectively. ResultsThe results showed that TRIM28 was up-regulated in non-M3 AML of both online database GSE34577 and clinical samples （P<0.000 1）， TRIM28 expression of new diagnosis group and relapsed refractory group was higher than iron deficiency anemia group （P<0.01）， and there was no significance between different French-American-British classification systems subtype. TRIM28 expression was higher in non-M3 AML patients with a poor genetic prognosis stratified as moderate than in the good prognosis group， and TRIM28 expression was associated with NPM1 combined with the FLT3-ITD mutation， positively correlated with age， bone marrow blast， peripheral blood blast and white blood cell， negatively correlated with hemoglobin. In addition， interference TRIM28 greatly inhibited cell proliferation and promoted cell apoptosis. ConclusionThis study reveals that TRIM28 is highly expressed in non-M3 AML and associated with prognosis， and plays a key role in the proliferation and apoptosis of AML cells， suggesting that TRIM28 may serve as a novel therapeutic target for non-M3 AML.

Objective:To investigate the host and vector composition of pestis and the epidemic situation of pestis among animals in the border port areas of Longchuan County, Yunnan Province.Methods:In September 2022, a survey was conducted on rodents and their surface parasitic fleas in the border port areas of Longchuan County, according to three habitat types: residential areas, agricultural areas, and forest-shrubbery areas. Samples of murine animals organs and their surface parasitic fleas were collected for isolation and identification of Yersinia pestis. Blood samples of plague indicating animals, such as murine animals, dogs and cats were collected, and serum plague F1 antibody was detected by indirect hemagglutination assay. Meanwhile, a retrospective investigation was conducted on the occurrence of self dead rats, sick rats, and suspected cases in the local area from 2018 to 2022 through interviews with farmers. Results:A total of 168 murine animals belonging to 3 orders, 5 families, 10 genera, and 11 species were captured in three habitats in Longchuan County. Among them, the capture rate in residential areas was 5.00% (30/600), with Rattus tanezumi and Suncus murinus as dominant species, with a composition ratio of 50.00% (15/30). The capture rate in agricultural areas was 9.67% (122/1 262), with Rattus tanezumi and Suncus murinus as dominant species, with a composition ratio of 50.82% (62/122) and 44.26% (54/122), respectively. The capture rate in the forest-shrubbery areas was 6.25% (16/256), with Hylomys suillus and Eothenomys eleusis as dominant species, with a composition ratio of 37.50% (6/16) and 31.25% (5/16), respectively. Among the captured murine animals, 20 individuals carried 52 parasitic fleas, belonging to 2 species of 2 genera and 2 families. The total flea infection rate was 11.90% (20/168), and the total flea index was 0.31 (52/168). The dominant specie was Xenopsylla cheopis (90.38%, 47/52). The flea infection rate in residential areas was 33.33% (10/30), and the flea index was 1.23 (37/30). The flea infection rate in agricultural areas was 7.38% (9/122), and the flea index was 0.11 (14/122). The flea infection rate in the forest-shrubbery areas was 6.25% (1/16), and the flea index was 0.06 (1/16). The samples of murine animals and their parasitic fleas obtained were isolated and cultured by Yersinia pestis, and the results were negative. A total of 144 serum samples from murine animals, dogs and cats were separated, and no F1 antibody against pestis was detected. According to interviews and investigations, no abnormal situations such as a large number of self dead rats, sick rats, and suspected cases were found from 2018 to 2022. Conclusions:No plague epidemic has been found in the border port areas of Longchuan County recently. The main host of plague, Rattus tanezumi, and the main vector, Xenopsylla cheopis, remain the dominant species in this area.

Objective To investigate the role of membrane-associated tyrosine/threonine-protein ki-nase 1(PKMYT1)in glucocorticoid(GC)-induced osteoblast(OB)apoptosis,providing a theoretical basis and potential therapeutic targets for early-stage steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head(SANFH).Methods(1)Mouse calvarial osteoblastic cells(MC3T3-E1)were selected for the study.The control group was cultured in standard medium,while the experimental group was subject-ed to osteogenic induction culture,with osteogenic capacity verified by alkaline phosphatase(ALP)and Alizarin Red S(ARS)staining.Then,mouse osteoblasts(mOB)were treated with different con-centrations of GC.After that,apoptosis was detected by using Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining as-say,while cell proliferation was assessed by using Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK8).Moreover,the expres-sions of anti-apoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2(BCL-2),pro-apoptotic proteins cleaved caspase-3andcleavedcaspase-9(cleavedcaspase 3/9)weredetectedbyusing Westernblotting(WB).Meanwhile,proteomic analysis was employed to identify molecules potentially regulating GC-in-duced apoptosis in mOBs.What's more,quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR)and WB were used to further analyze PKMYT1 expression.(2)mOBs were treated with PKMYT1 inhibitor GSK-1520489A of different concentrations to screen the optimal one,and all subjects were then further divided into a control,a GC,a GSK-1520489A,and a GC+GSK-1520489A group.Later,the expression of PK-MYT1 and apoptosis-related proteins BCL-2 and cleaved caspase 3/9 of all groups were detected us-ing WB,and cell viability and cytotoxicity were evaluated by CCK8 assay,with cell proliferation by using 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine(EDU)assay and apoptosis by cell live/dead staining and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining.(3)mOBs were infected with PKMYT1 overexpression lentiviral vectors,and its efficiency was verified by using immunofluorescence,qPCR,and WB.After successful overexpres-sion of PKMYT1,all cells were divided into the control,GC,PKMYT1 overexpression(OE),and OE+GC groups,whose cell proliferation was detected by EDU assay,and apoptosis was assessed by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining and cell live/dead staining.(4)To verify the changes in PKMYT1 expression in human osteoblasts(hOB),hOBs extracted from human femoral heads of healthy individu-als were chosen into the control group,while those from patients with hormone-induced avascular ne-crosis of the femoral head(hSANFH)were selected into the hSANFH group.Then,PKMYT1 expres-sion in both groups was detected by using qPCR and WB.Results(1)After inducing the differentia-tion of mouse calvarial osteoblastic cells(MC3T3-E1)into mature osteoblasts,under the action of GC,compared with the control group,with the increase of GC concentration,the experimental group showed increased mOB apoptosis(P<0.01)and expression of cleaved caspase 3/9(P<0.01),but de-creased cell viability(P<0.01)and expressionof apoptosis-relatedprotein BCL-2(P<0.01).More-over,according to the proteomic sequencing,significant decrease was observed in the PKMYT1 expres-sion in mature mOBs treated with GC.(2)As to treatment of mOBs with different concentrations of PKMYT1 inhibitor GSK-1520489A,with the increase of concentration,cell viability decreased and cy-totoxicity increased(P<0.001).Moreover,compared with the control group,mOBs proliferation de-creased(P<0.001)and apoptosis increased(P<0.001)in the GSK-1520489A group.Meanwhile,com-pared with the GC group,mOB proliferation decreased(P<0.05)and apoptosis increased significantly(P<0.01)in the GC+GSK-1520489A group.(3)After overexpression of PKMYT1,in comparison with the control group,mOB proliferation increased(P<0.001)but apoptosis did not increase significantly(P>0.05)in the OE group.Moreover,compared with the GC group,mOB proliferation increased(P<0.001)but apoptosis decreased(P<0.001)significantly in the OE+GC group.(4)In hOBs extracted from human femoral head tissues,qPCR and WB results showed that PKMYT1 expression of the hSANFH group was significantly lower than the control group(P<0.001).Conclusion Down regulation of PKMYT1 expression promotes GC-induced apoptosis of mOBs.Conversely,over expression of PK-MYT1 inhibits GC-induced apoptosis of mOBs.Therefore,PKMYT1 may serve as a potential target for the early treatment of SANFH.

Objective:To investigate the effects of radiofrequency technology combined with electrical stimulation biofeedback training on stress urinary incontinence in female patients.Methods:This is a prospective study that included 360 female patients with stress urinary incontinence who visited the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics at Lianyungang Maternal and Child Health Hospital from June 2021 to June 2023. The patients were divided into three groups using a random number table method: a radiofrequency treatment group ( n = 120, treated with radiofrequency technology), an electrical stimulation treatment group ( n = 120, treated with electrical stimulation biofeedback training), and a combined treatment group ( n = 120, treated with a combination of radiofrequency technology and electrical stimulation biofeedback training). The clinical efficacy of the three groups was evaluated. Before and after treatment, a 1-hour pad test and urine test were conducted. The Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form was used to assess the surface electromyography values of the pelvic floor muscles in patients across the three groups. Results:The effective treatment rate in the combined treatment group was 87.50% (105/120), which was significantly higher than the rates in the radiofrequency treatment group (69.17%, 83/120) and the electrical stimulation treatment group (71.67%, 86/120) ( χ2 = 13.05, P < 0.05). After treatment, the 1-hour pad test showed that the urine leakage amounts and the Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form scores for the combined treatment group were (1.14 ± 0.16) g and (4.15 ± 0.48), respectively. In comparison, the values in the radiofrequency treatment group were (3.04 ± 0.42) g and (8.66 ± 0.89), while in the electrical stimulation treatment group they were (3.01 ± 0.39) g and (8.78 ± 0.91). Differences among the three groups were statistically significant ( F = 1 024.37, 1 354.96, all P < 0.05). After treatment, the surface electromyography values during the rapid contraction, sustained contraction, and endurance contraction phases for the combined treatment group were (31.97 ± 3.24) μV, (27.01 ± 3.02) μV, and (20.05 ± 2.11) μV, respectively. For the radiofrequency treatment group, the values were (27.85 ± 2.72) μV, (21.63 ± 2.39) μV, and (15.14 ± 1.63) μV, while the electrical stimulation treatment group showed values of (27.93 ± 2.75) μV, (22.04 ± 2.41) μV, and (15.39 ± 1.67) μV. Differences among the three groups were also statistically significant ( F = 78.49, 156.43, 278.16, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Radiofrequency technology combined with electrical stimulation biofeedback training can substantially improve pelvic floor muscle strength and reduce urinary incontinence symptoms in female patients with stress urinary incontinence.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of hyperdense artery sign(HAS)in elderly patients with acute anterior LVO in anterior circulation undergoing mechanical thrombectomy.Methods A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted on 109 patients with acute LVO of anterior circulation admitted in our department from January 2019 to December 2022.According to their preoperative plain CT scans,they were divided into HAS positive(39 patients)and HAS negative(70 patients)groups.Baseline features,surgical indicators,complications and outcomes were compared between the two groups.Results The patients with HAS had significantly larger proportions of atrial fibrillation and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage than those without the sign(53.8％vs 31.4％,20.5％vs 5.7％,P＜0.05).The rate of 90-day good prognosis was a little higher in the HAS positive group than the negative group,though no statistical difference(48.7％vs 38.6％,P＞0.05).Male,stroke history,SBP,NIHSS at admission,HAS positivity,revasculiza-tion,and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage were independent influencing factors for favorable prognosis in the patients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion The presence of HAS is a prognostic marker for patients with acute LVO in anterior circulation undergoing mechanical thrombectomy,and it is associated with a higher risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage.

AIM To evaluate the chemical constituent consistency in formula granules and traditional decoctions of Gouteng Jiangya Formula.METHODS HPLC characteristic chromatograms were established,the analysis was performed on a 30 ℃ thermostatic YMC-Triart C18 column(4.6 mm× 250 mm,5 μm),with the mobile phase comprising of acetonitrile-0.2％phosphoric acid flowing at 1.0 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and the detection wavelength was set at 240 nm.Puerarin was used as an internal standard to calculate the relative correction factors of 3'-methoxy puerarin,puerarin apioside,magnolflorine,paeoniflora,daidzin,baicalin,palmatine,berberine,wogonoside and benzoylpaeoniflorin,after which the content detemination was made by quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker(QAMS).RESULTS The characteristic chromatograms of 9 batches of formula granules and 15 bacthes of traditional decoctions demonstrated the similarities of more than 0.90 at the detection wavelengths of 192,210,240,260,280,300,320,360 nm,along with similar total peak areas.Eleven constituents showed good linear relationships within their own ranges(r＞0.999 0),whose average recoveries were 97.27％-101.64％with the RSDs of 0.36％-1.11％,the result obtained by QAMS and external standard method demonstrated no significant differences(P＞0.05).The contents of various constituents in the formula granules approximated those in the traditional decoctions.CONCLUSION The consistent kinds and contents of various constituents are obversable in formula granules and traditional decoctions of Gouteng Jiangya Formula,which can provide a reference for the reasonable clinical application of this formula.

AIM To investigate the effects of Liangxue Heying Formula-medicated serum(LXHY-MS)on human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)induced by lipopolysaccharide(LPS).METHODS CCK-8,DCFH-DA fluorescence probe and Western blot method were used to screen the LPS concentration in modeling and the serum LXHY concentration for treatment.The HUVECs divided into the normal group,the model group and the LXHY-MS group had their SOD activity detected by automatic biochemical analyzer;their MDA level detected by colorimetry;their protein expressions of ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6,TNF-α,p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 detected by Western blot;and their mROS expression and recruitment effect on THP-1 photographed with high connotation.With the use of JAK2/STAT3 pathway inhibitor(AG490),the HUVECs divided into the normal group,the AG490 group,the LPS group,the LPS+AG490 group,the LPS+LXHY-MS group,and LPS+LXHY-MS+AG490 group were subjected to the corresponding treatment,followed by the detection of their protein expressions of ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6,TNF-α,p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 by Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the normal group,the model group displayed decreased SOD activity(P＜0.01),increased MDA level(P＜0.05),increased ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6,TNF-α,p-JAK2,p-STAT3 protein expressions(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and increased mROS expression and THP-1 cells recruitment.Compared with the model group,the LXHY-MS group shared increased SOD activity(P＜0.05),decreased MDA level(P＜0.01),decreased ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6,TNF-α,p-JAK2,p-STAT3 protein expressions(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),reduced mROS expression and THP-1 cells recruitment.Given the use of AG490,the model group displayed increased protein expressions of ICAM-1,VCAM-1,IL-6,TNF-α,p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 in contrast to the normal group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);each intervened group showed decreased expressions of related proteins in contrast to the model group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION LXHY-MS may protect the injury due to the activation of HUVECs by inhibiting the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.
