Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

Incretin-based drugs have demonstrated significant clinical value in weight management and the treatment of metabolic diseases by mimicking or enhancing endogenous incretin signaling. These agents primarily target multiple receptors including glucagon-like peptide-1， glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide， and glucagon， exerting weight-reducing effects through multiple mechanisms such as central appetite regulation， gastrointestinal function modulation， and peripheral metabolic improvement， while further ameliorating blood glucose， blood lipids， fatty liver， and cardiorenal metabolic risks. This review focuses on incretin-based drugs， systematically summarizing the key clinical application points and relevant research progress of domestically marketed and investigational candidate drugs in the field of weight reduction. Available evidence indicates that semaglutide and tirzepatide demonstrate substantial weight reduction with multiple metabolic benefits； domestic innovative drugs represented by mazdutide and ecnoglutide also exhibit favorable weight-reducing effects and safety profiles. Regarding safety， these agents are generally well-tolerated， with the most common adverse reactions being mild-to-moderate gastrointestinal events， while potential risks including gallbladder events， pancreatitis， and mood changes require attention. In special populations， individualized assessment is warranted for use in children， elderly people， and pregnant women. Future research should focus on the screening of predictive biomarkers for efficacy， the development of long-acting oral formulations， and the accumulation of long-term safety follow-up data.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for in-hospital malignant ventricular arrhythmia (MVA) in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and to construct and validate a risk prediction model.Methods:This study was a retrospective cohort study. Patients aged≥18 years who were admitted to Qilu Hospital of Shandong University with a diagnosis of AMI and underwent coronary angiography (CAG) from May 2016 to March 2023 were selected, and the patients' clinical routine test indicators and CAG results were collected. Univariate and bidirectional stepwise logistic regression were used to screen out the risk factors for constructing the best prediction model. The prediction model was constructed by combining the results of multivariate logistic regression. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test and ROC curve, calibration curve, and decision curve were drawn to evaluate the model. The nomogram was drawn to visualize the model, and the Bootstrap self-sampling method was used for internal validation. The ROC curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive performance of each risk factor and prediction model. Finally, a multicollinearity test was performed.Results:Among the 4 205 patients finally included in the study, 115 patients (2.735%) developed MVA during hospitalization. The predictive factors screened out included age (X1), diastolic blood pressure (X2), respiratory rate (X3), blood glucose (X4), serum potassium (X5), logarithmic NT-proBNP (X6), myocardial infarction type (NSTEMI=X7, unclassified=X8), J wave (X9), Killip grade (Ⅱ=X10, Ⅲ=X11, Ⅳ=X12), and the regression equation was ln(p/1-p)=-4.699+0.029×X1-0.012×X2+0.059×X3+0.148×X4-1.175×X5+0.866×X6-1.427×X7-0.475×X8+0.758×X9+0.294×X10+0.902×X11+1.815×X12. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the model was 0.855 (95% CI: 0.816-0.894), and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test ( χ2=14.178, P=0.077) and the calibration curve showed that the predicted probability was consistent with the actual probability. The probability threshold of 0% to 65% had a better clinical net benefit. The area under the internal validation ROC curve (AUC) was 0.855, 95% CI: 0.813-0.891. The prediction performance of the nine variables was stronger than that of any single variable. There was no multicollinearity between the variables. Conclusions:Age, diastolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, blood glucose, serum potassium, NT-proBNP, type of AMI, J wave, and Killip class are forecasting indicator for in-hospital MVA in AMI. The risk prediction model based on the above factors has good predictive performance.

Objective To evaluate the modeling characteristics and predictive performance of models for predicting post-stroke neurological deterioration(ND)published in existing literatures.Methods Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses(PRISMA)guidance for scoping reviews,a comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed,CINAHL,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science,Scopus,CNKI,Wanfang Data,and VIP databases from inception to December 15,2024.The search strategy combined Medical Subject Headings(MeSH)and free-text terms,with key words including"Stroke""Ischemic Stroke""Neurological Deterioration""Nomograms""Risk Prediction""Predictive Models""卒中""脑梗死""脑出血""神经功能恶化"and"预测模型".Base on the data extraction checklist and critical appraisal,data extraction covered three domains:(1)basic characteristics,including author,publication year,country,study design(retrospective,prospective,registry-based),sample source(single-center,multicenter),stroke subtypes(acute ischemic stroke[AIS]-conservative therapy,AIS-intravenous thrombolysis[IVT],AIS-endovascular therapy[EVT],intracerebral hemorrhage[ICH]),ND time windows(acute[≤72 h],subacute[≤ 7 d],long-term[≤90 d]),and outcome types(single/composite endpoints);(2)model evaluation metrics,including missing data handling(complete-case analysis,multiple imputation),model development methodologies(multivariate Logistic regression,least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression,machine learning),presentation formats(nomograms,web calculators,risk prediction tool),discrimination(area under the curve,C-index),calibration(Hosmer-Lemeshow test,calibration curve and slope),clinical utility(decision curve analysis[DCA],global metrics Brier score,R2,AIC),sample size(training set,internal validation set,external validation set),sample size requirements(events per variable[EPV]≥10 to mitigate overfitting),and validation(internal/external);(3)predictor features,including selection strategies(prior knowledge-driven,univariate analysis),quantity,and attributes(demographics,medical history,physical examination,treatment intervention information,imaging/laboratory indicators).Predictive models that meet exclusion criteria from prior literature were analyzed by their discrimination,calibration,clinical utility and global metrics.Forest plots were utilized to visualize discrimination(evaluated via difference in area under the curve)of the extracted models.The prediction model risk of bias assessment tool(PROBAST)was applied to assess bias risk and clinical applicability.Occurrence frequencies of the post-stroke neurological deterioration predictors were ranked and the top 6 high-frequency predictors were extracted.Results(1)Among 3 728 screened studies,25 were included based on the inclusion and exclusion criteria.(2)Basic characteristics:retrospective(72％[18/25])and single-center(64％[16/25])designs dominated.With most models targeted on AIS(92％[23/25]),and the rest(8％[2/25])on ICH.ND was primarily defined by neurological scale changes(60％[15/25];e.g.,National Institutes of Health stroke scale[NIHSS]score increase or Glasgow coma scale[GCS]score decrease),with time windows categorized as acute(36％[9/25]),subacute(48％[12/25]),or long-term(16％[4/25]).(3)Model evaluation:multivariate Logistic regression(96％[24/25])and nomograms(88％[22/25])were predominant.Only 24％(6/25)explicitly addressed missing data handling methods,and 52％(13/25)with EPV≥10.The median area under the curve was 0.865(range:0.650-0.981).44％(11/25)of the studies reported calibration curves,and 4％(1/25)reported calibration slopes.All studies utilized DCA to validate their clinical applicability,84％(21/25)of the studies conducted internal validation,while only 32％(8/25)conducted external validation.PROBAST evaluation revealed low overall bias risk in 8％(2/25;no error across participant,predictor,outcome,or analysis domains)and low clinical applicability risk in 44％(11/25;alignment with target populations,accessible predictors,and clinically relevant outcomes)of the studies.(4)Predictors:64％(16/25)of the predictor were screened predominantly through the prior knowledge-driven based strategy.The top 6 high-frequency predictors are NIHSS score(64％[16/25]),age(36％[9/25]),blood glucose/diabetes(36％[9/25]),blood pressure/hypertension(32％[8/25]),the Alberta stroke program early CT score(20％[5/25]),and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(20％[5/25]).AIS-ND predictors emphasized readily available metrics,such as NIHSS(65％[15/23]),age(35％[8/23]),while ICH-ND primarily relied on imaging markers(e.g.,baseline hematoma volume[2/2],location[1/2]).Conclusion Current post-stroke ND predictive models demonstrate satisfactory performance on discrimination and multimodal integration,but their practical application are hindered by insufficient calibration quantification,high bias risk,and limited clinical translatability.

Cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD) is referred to as a special type of cervical spinal cord injury characterized by traumatic spinal cord dysfunction and no significant bony structural abnormalities on imagines. Duo to the high risk of missed diagnosis during the initial consultation, CSCIWFD may lead to progressive neurological deterioration or even complete paralysis, severely impacting patients′ prognosis. Currently, there are no established consensuses over the diagnosis and treatment of CSCIWFD, such as the lack of evidence-based standards for indications of non-surgical treatment and risk of secondary neurological injury, as well as debates over the optimal timing for surgical intervention and indications for different surgical approaches. To address these issues, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts in the relevant fields to formulate Diagnosis and treatment guideline for acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture- dislocation in adults ( version 2025) . Based on evidence-based medicine and the principles of scientific rigor and clinical applicability, the guidelines proposed 11 recommendations covering terminology, diagnosis, evaluation treatment, and rehabilitation, etc., aiming to standardize the management of CSCIWFD.

The small-molecule alkaloid halofuginone(HF)is obtained from febrifugine.Recent studies on HF have aroused widespread attention owing to its universal range of noteworthy biological activities and therapeutic functions,which range from parasite infections and fibrosis to autoimmune diseases.In particular,HF is believed to play an excellent anticancer role by suppressing the proliferation,adhesion,metastasis,and invasion of cancers.This review supports the goal of demonstrating various anticancer effects and molecular mechanisms of HF.In the studies covered in this review,the anticancer molecular mechanisms of HF mainly included transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)/Smad-3/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2),serine/threonine kinase proteins(Akt)/mechanistic target of rapa-mycin complex 1(mTORC1)/wingless/integrated(Wnt)/β-catenin,the exosomal microRNA-31(miR-31)/histone deacetylase 2(HDAC2)signaling pathway,and the interaction of the extracellular matrix(ECM)and immune cells.Notably,HF,as a novel type of adenosine triphosphate(ATP)-dependent inhibitor that is often combined with prolyl transfer RNA synthetase(ProRS)and amino acid starvation therapy(AAS)to suppress the formation of ribosome,further exerts a significant effect on the tumor microenvironment(TME).Additionally,the combination of HF with other drugs or therapies obtained universal attention.Our results showed that HF has significant potential for clinical cancer treatment.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.
