Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

BACKGROUND:Various proteins,signaling pathways,and inflammatory mediators are involved in the pathophysiological process of osteoarthritis.The development of small molecule drugs targeting these proteins,signaling pathways,and inflammatory mediators can effectively delay the progression of osteoarthritis and ameliorate its clinical manifestations. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of small molecule drugs in the treatment of osteoarthritis based on the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis. METHODS:PubMed,CNKI,and WanFang databases were searched with English search terms"osteoarthritis,arthritis,osteoarthrosis,degenerative,arthritides,deformans,small molecule drugs,small molecule inhibitors,small molecule agents"and Chinese search terms"osteoarthritis,small molecule drugs,small molecule inhibitors."A total of 68 articles were included for review according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Currently,studies concerning the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis remain unclear.The occurrence and development of osteoarthritis are strongly associated with proteins,cytokines,and signal transduction pathways,so its therapeutic mechanism is relatively complex.Currently,targeting proteins,cytokines,and signal transduction pathways related to osteoarthritis with small molecule drugs has become a major research focus.(2)Small molecule drugs frequently possess visible intracellular or extracellular targets and efficacy,containing enhancing cartilage repair,resisting joint degradation,attenuating inflammation,and relieving pain.Other anti-osteoarthritis small molecule drugs have shown promise in promoting stem cell chondrogenic differentiation and cartilage matrix reconstruction.(3)At present,small molecule drugs targeting the pathophysiological process of osteoarthritis to delay the progression of osteoarthritis are still in the experimental stage,but most of these small molecule drugs have shown the expected results in the experimental process,and there are no relevant studies to illustrate the efficacy of small molecule drugs in the treatment of osteoarthritis.(4)Small molecule drugs for the treatment of osteoarthritis have reached the expected experimental results in the basic experimental stage.Numerous studies have exhibited that small molecule drugs can target the suppression of specific proteins,cytokines,and signal transduction pathways that cause osteoarthritis,so as to treat osteoarthritis.Nevertheless,its safety and effectiveness still need to be identified by further basic and clinical studies.This process needs to be investigated and studied by more scholars.(5)At present,many scholars in and outside China have made contributions to the treatment of osteoarthritis.Compared with traditional treatment methods,small molecule drugs reveal better efficacy and safety in the basic experimental stage,and it is expected to become an emerging method for the treatment of osteoarthritis in the future to rid patients of pain.

Objective: To report the clinical data of two patients with prostatic hyperplasia and bladder uric acid stones，so as to provide reference for clinical practice. Methods: Clinical data of two patients successfully undergoing blue laser lithotripsy in Department of Urology，Zhenba County People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed，including clinical manifestations，surgical methods，treatment outcomes and complications. Results: Both patients sought medical care due to progressive dysuria or hematuria.B ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed bladder calculi and prostatic hyperplasia.One patient also had large blood clots in the bladder cavity.Both patients received transurethral blue laser prostate vaporization + transurethral bladder stone holmium laser lithotripsy.The stone surface was dark yellow，with no obvious pores，fine particles or spike protrusion.Blue laser produced an “ablative” phenomenon similar to vaporization，and then stones became smaller and fragmented.The lithotripsy lasted for 11 min and 8 min，respectively.There were multiple bladder mucosal injuries due to constant drift of stones during operation.Stone composition analysis suggested uric acid stones.After 3 months of follow-up，both patients had smooth postoperative urination，good urine control，and no stone recurrence. Conclusion: Blue laser can be applied to crush uric acid stones，and the bladder mucosa should be protected during lithotripsy.

BACKGROUND:Percutaneous vertebroplasty has become the main treatment method for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures due to its advantages of convenient operation and low trauma.However,the optimal bone cement-vertebral volume ratio has not been determined. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of bone cement-vertebral volume ratio on percutaneous vertebroplasty for osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. METHODS:The clinical data of 100 patients with single-stage osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures admitted to Xinjiang Bazhou People's Hospital from July 2019 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients received percutaneous vertebroplasty.According to the bone cement-vertebral volume ratio,they were divided into the low volume group(15%≤ratio≤20%)and the high volume group(20%0.05).The vertebral anterior margin height in the low volume group was lower than that in the high volume group at 3 days and 1 year after surgery(P<0.05).The Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae in the low volume group was higher than that in the high volume group at 3 days and 1 year after surgery(P<0.05).(2)There were 10 H-type and 40 O-type bone cement distributions in the low volume group.There were 36 H-type and 14 O-type bone cement distributions in the high volume group,and there was no significant difference in bone cement distributions between the two groups(P<0.05).The bone cement leakage rate in the high volume group and low volume group was 10%and 6%,respectively.(3)It is indicated that both low and high bone cement-vertebral volume ratios can improve postoperative pain and functional dysfunction,but high bone cement-vertebral volume ratio can improve the morphological recovery of injured vertebral,which may be related to the fact that the distribution of bone cement in this group is more H-type.

Most chemical medicines have polymorphs. The difference of medicine polymorphs in physicochemical properties directly affects the stability, efficacy, and safety of solid medicine products. Polymorphs is incomparably important to pharmaceutical chemistry, manufacturing, and control. Meantime polymorphs is a key factor for the quality of high-end drug and formulations. Polymorph prediction technology can effectively guide screening of trial experiments, and reduce the risk of missing stable crystal form in the traditional experiment. Polymorph prediction technology was firstly based on theoretical calculations such as quantum mechanics and computational chemistry, and then was developed by the key technology of machine learning using the artificial intelligence. Nowadays, the popular trend is to combine the advantages of theoretical calculation and machine learning to jointly predict crystal structure. Recently, predicting medicine polymorphs has still been a challenging problem. It is expected to learn from and integrate existing technologies to predict medicine polymorphs more accurately and efficiently.

Objective We aimed to investigate the effects of Biejiajian Pills on MHCC-97H hepatoma cells and whether Biejiajian Pills regulate the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway through miR-885-5p.Methods SPF SD rats (n = 10) were randomly divided into the blank group and the Biejiajian Pills (1.1 g/kg) group to prepare blank and Biejiajian Pills-containing serum. MHCC-97H cells in the logarithmic growth phase were divided into the model group, blank serum groups with different concentrations (5％, 10％, 15％, and 20％), the serum containing Biejiajian Pills group, and the blank group without cells. Cell proliferation was detected by the CCK-8 assay, and the optimal intervention time and concentration of drug-containing serum were screened. MHCC-97H cells were divided into the blank control group (no intervention), the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum group (20％ Biejiajian Pills-containing serum), the miR-885-5p mimics group (transfected with miR-885-5p mimics), the miR-NC group (transfected with miR-885-5p NC), and the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum + miR-885-5p mimics group (treated with 20％ Biejiajian Pills-containing serum and transfected with miR-885-5p mimics). Cells in each group were cultured for 72 hours. A dual luciferase reporter assay was conducted to verify the targeting relationship between miR-885-5p and EGFR. Cell proliferation was detected by the CCK-8 assay, cell migration and invasion abilities were detected by the cell scratch assay and the Transwell invasion assay. Annexin V-APC/PI double staining was performed to detect the apoptosis level, and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis was conducted to determine the mRNA expression levels of miR-885-5p, EGFR, MEK, and ERK1/2. The expression levels of EGFR, p-EGFR, MEK, p-MEK, ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2, matrix metalloproteinase 1 (MMP1), and CyclinD1 were determined by Western blotting analysis. The subcutaneous tumor model of MHCC-97H hepatoma cells in nude mice was established by subcutaneous injection to observe the inhibitory effect of Biejiajian Pills of different doses(0.55,1.1,2.2 g/kg).Results The optimal concentration and intervention time of Biejiajian Pills-containing serum were 20％ and 72 hours, respectively. Meanwhile, the dual luciferase reporter assay showed that miR-885-5p could directly target EGFR. No statistical significances between the blank control group and the miR-NC group were observed (P>0.05). Compared with the blank control group, the proliferation rates of MHCC-97H hepatoma cells in the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum group, the miR-885-5p mimics group, and the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum + miR-885-5p mimics group were significantly decreased (P<0.01), and their migration and invasion abilities were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). At the same time, the protein expression levels of CyclinD1 and MMP1, which are closely related to cell proliferation and invasion, were significantly downregulated (P<0.05, P<0.01). The proportions of late apoptotic cells and the proportion of total apoptotic cells were significantly increased (P<0.01). In the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum group, the miR-885-5p mimics group, and the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum + miR-885-5p mimics group, miR-885-5p mRNA was significantly upregulated (P<0.01) and EGFR, MEK, and ERK1/2 were significantly downregulated at the mRNA level (P<0.05, P<0.01). EGFR, MEK, and ERK1/2 phosphorylation was inhibited (P<0.01), and the Biejiajian Pills-containing serum + miR-885-5p mimics group showed the best effect (P<0.05, P<0.01). The subcutaneous liver tumor model in nude mice verified that Biejiajian Pills can inhibit tumor growth in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion Biejiajian Pills can promote apoptosis of MHCC-97H hepatoma cells and inhibit their proliferation, invasion, and migration. The mechanism may be related to the targeted regulation of the EGFR/MAPK/ERK signaling pathway by miR-885-5p.

Objective To summarize and evaluate the characteristics of current recurrent spontaneous abortion(RSA)animal models at home and abroad,and to provide reference and guidance for the standardized preparation of RSA models.Methods"Recurrent spontaneous abortion"and"animal model"were used as co-keywords in CNKI,Wanfang,VIP,PubMed and Web of Science databases to search the RSA animal experimental literature,covering the period up to January 20,2024,and a total of 1 411 articles were collected.The analysis focused on construction methods and essential elements of RSA animal models,the modeling process and result evaluation,as well as the application of these models in pharmacological and pharmacodynamic research.An Excel table was established for systematic analysis and discussion.Results A total of 138 experimental studies were obtained after screening.In constructing RSA animal models,immunological models were the most widely used in Western medicine(96.92％),with the Clark model being the main one(92.31％).In traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)models,70.00％were kidney deficiency-luteal inhibition-syndrome combination models,20.00％were kidney deficiency and blood stasis models,and 10.00％were deficiency-heat syndrome models.Most animals were selected at 6-8 weeks(33.86％)and 8 weeks(32.28％)of age.The majority of animals were paired for mating at 18:00 on the day of cage pairing.In 81.03％of literatures,vaginal plugs were checked once the following morning,with 8:00 being the most common time(17.02％).The most commonly used drug administration cycle was 14 days of continuous gavage after pregnancy.Among the tested drugs,Western drugs were mainly protein-based(29.17％),while TCM drugs were mainly TCM decoction(81.11％).The most frequently used methods for detecting indicators included visual observation of embryos(22.54％),western blot(15.96％),PCR(13.58％),ELISA(12.91％),HE staining(10.80％)and immunohistochemistry(9.39％).Conclusion The etiology of RSA is complex,and corresponding animal models should be established based on different etiologies.Clark model is commonly used in the construction of Western medicine model,while the kidney deficiency-luteal inhibition-syndrome combination model is predominant in TCM.RSA animal model is widely used in related research,but systematic evaluation needs to be strengthened.

Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.
