Objective To determine the prognostic biomarkers and new therapeutic targets of the lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), based on which to establish a prediction model for the survival of LUAD patients. Methods An integrative analysis was conducted on gene expression and clinicopathologic data of LUAD, which were obtained from the UCSC database. Subsequently, various methods, including screening of differentially expressed genes (DEGs), Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA), were employed to analyze the data. Cox regression and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression were used to establish an assessment model. Based on this model, we constructed a nomogram to predict the probable survival of LUAD patients at different time points (1-year, 2-year, 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year). Finally, we evaluated the predictive ability of our model using Kaplan-Meier survival curves, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and time-dependent ROC curves. The validation group further verified the prognostic value of the model. Results The different-grade pathological subtypes' DEGs were mainly enriched in biological processes such as metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity, antigen processing and presentation, and regulation of enzyme activity, which were closely related to tumor development. Through Cox regression and LASSO regression, we constructed a reliable prediction model consisting of a five-gene panel (MELTF, MAGEA1, FGF19, DKK4, C14ORF105). The model demonstrated excellent specificity and sensitivity in ROC curves, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.675. The time-dependent ROC analysis revealed AUC values of 0.893, 0.713, and 0.632 for 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival, respectively. The advantage of the model was also verified in the validation group. Additionally, we developed a nomogram that accurately predicted survival, as demonstrated by calibration curves and C-index. Conclusion We have developed a prognostic prediction model for LUAD consisting of five genes. This novel approach offers clinical practitioners a personalized tool for making informed decisions regarding the prognosis of their patients.

Objective To provide technical support for the formulation of scientific and reasonable supervision measures for enterprises engaged in the exploitation and utilization of ores with associated radionuclides in Guangxi Province, China. Methods A radionuclide analysis was performed on solid materials generated during production processes such as zirconium-titanium ore dressing and processing in multiple enterprises in Guangxi Province. The radiation levels of effluents was measured. Measurement and analysis were performed on the environmental air radon concentration levels and environmental γ-radiation dose rates at the factory boundaries of these enterprises and the surrounding environmental protection targets. Results The air absorption dose rate of γ radiation, the concentrations of radon and its daughters, and the radiation levels of surface water and aerosols at the factory boundaries and in the surrounding environment were all at normal levels. The specific activities of nuclides ²³⁸U, ²³²Th, and ²²⁶Ra in the raw ore, zirconium products, rutile products, and monazite products within the factory area were relatively high. The γ radiation air absorption dose rates in the corresponding workshops were also relatively high, with the zirconium-rutile workshop being the area with the highest values. Materials such as zirconium products, rutile, and monazite all showed a certain amount of radon exhalation. Conclusion The radiation level of tailings met the criteria of monitoring exemption, and the enterprises did not generate radioactive solid waste. Attention should be paid to the personal dose of the staff in areas with high radiation dose rates.

Objective: To explore the potential category patterns of risk prevention and control behaviors of HIV infection among young students who have sex with men (MSM) and their impact on HIV infection and late detection, aiming to optimize intervention strategies. Methods: From September 2017 to December 2024, a total of 1 637 MSM young students in Tianjin were recruited through both online and offline channels. Latent class analysis was applied to classify 11 HIV risk prevention and control behaviors [condom use during the most recent anal sex in the past 6 months, consistent condom use, use of water based lubricants, abstinence from recreational drugs, regular on site professional testing, fixed sexual partners, partner testing, awareness of partner s HIV testing results, testing before sexual activity, nucleic acid testing, and use of pre exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or post exposure prophylaxis (PEP)]. Multivariate Logistic regression analyzed associations between demographic characteristics/intervention services factors and latent classes. Differences in HIV infection and late detection across behavior patterns were compared. Results: HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM students were classified into three latent classes:condom dependent group (38.42%), low prevention group (27.73%), and comprehensive prevention group (33.85%). Students who received condom promotion/testing services were more likely to belong to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =5.58), while those who received peer education were less likely to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =0.43) (both P <0.01). Among the MSM student population, the HIV infection rate was 4.83%, with 2.26% of cases detected late. The HIV infection rate (1.45%) and late detection proportion (0.82%) in the comprehensive prevention group were lower than those in the low prevention group (7.89% and 3.83%, respectively) ( χ 2=16.20, 7.31, both P <0.01). Conclusions HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM young students exhibit significant heterogeneity. Comprehensive prevention strategies can effectively reduce HIV infection and late detection risks. It is necessary to optimize peer education content and improve the accessibility of diversified prevention measures such as PrEP/PEP to enhance HIV prevention and control.

ObjectiveTo introduce the basic design， development plan and objectives of a population-based birth cohort in Shanghai， and further present the main data and baseline characteristics of enrolled participants in the cohort， and to provide key information for reproductive health-related studies. MethodsThe Shanghai population-based birth cohort initiated on January 1， 2005， included newborns born in Shanghai every year and their parents， and collected information on reproductive health， reproductive treatment， birth characteristics， growth and development status， as well as the incidence， treatment and death of diseases by employing data linkage technology and investigations. This formed a birth cohort spanning the entire life cycle. ResultsAs of October 2022， a total of 2 978 538 newborns and their parents were included in the cohort. Among them， 2 905 135 （97.54%） were naturally conceived （NC）， and 73 403 （2.46%） were born through assisted reproductive technologies （ART）. The average age of parents was （32.56±4.12） years old for females and （34.62±5.34） years old for males in the ART group， which was higher than （28.02±4.71） years and （30.07±5.54） years for parents in the NC group. Among parents， females and males aged 30 and above accounted for 77.12% and 85.08%， respectively， which were higher than that of parents （35.28% for females and 49.66% for males） in the NC group. Furthermore， the percentage of parents with a college degree or above in the ART group was 73.23% for females and 73.66% for males， which were higher than those in the NC group （49.98% and 50.91%， respectively）. The multiple births rate in the ART group was 33.81%， which was higher than that in the NC group （1.88%）. The incidence of premature birth and low birth weight in the ART group were 24.47% and 19.08%， respectively， which was higher than that in the NC group （5.47% and 3.73%）. ConclusionThe comprehensive collection of reproductive health-related information in the birth cohort in Shanghai can provide essential resources to determine the influence of genetics， environment， reproductive treatment and other related factors on the health of offspring after birth.

ObjectiveTo investigate the potential effect of ursodeoxycholic acid （UDCA） in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 in patients with chronic hepatitis B. MethodsClinical data were collected from 324 patients with chronic hepatitis B who were treated in Beijing Ditan Hospital， Capital Medical University， from January to December 2022， and according to whether UDCA was administered， they were divided into UDCA group and control group. The propensity score matching （PSM） method was used to balance the confounding factors such as age， sex， and chronic complications， and the two groups were compared in terms of SARS-CoV-2 infection rate， symptoms， and recovery time after COVID-19. The two groups were also compared in terms of related laboratory markers （white blood cell count ［WBC］， hemoglobin ［Hb］， platelet count ［PLT］， alanine aminotransferase ［ALT］， aspartate aminotransferase ［AST］， albumin ［Alb］， alkaline phosphatase ［ALP］， total bilirubin ［TBil］， triglyceride ［TG］， and total cholesterol ［TC］）， vaccination， and the incidence rate of liver disease symptoms after COVID-19. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups， and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of data with skewed distribution between the two groups； the chi-square test and the continuously corrected chi-square test were used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The binary Logistic regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses to investigate the influencing factors for COVID-19 after matching. ResultsThere were 87 patients in the UDCA group and 237 patients in the control group， and after PSM， there were 78 patients in the UDCA group and 137 patients in the control group， with good balance between the two groups. There was a significant difference in SARS-CoV-2 infection rate between the UDCA group and the control group ［82.1% （64/78） vs 95.6% （131/137）， χ²=10.847， P=0.001］. After COVID-19， compared with the control group， the UDCA group had a significantly lower proportion of the patients with chill （10.9% vs 38.9%， χ²=16.124， P<0.001） and cough （56.3% vs 74.8%， χ²=6.889， P=0.009）. There was a significant difference between the UDCA group and the control group in the proportion of the patients with a recovery time of ≤7 days after COVID-19 （79.7% vs 61.1%， χ²=6.760， P=0.009）. Both univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that UDCA was an independent influencing factor for COVID-19 （odds ratio=0.21 and 0.17， both P<0.05）. ConclusionUDCA is an protective factor against COVID-19 in patients with chronic hepatitis B and can alleviate related symptoms to some extent and shorten the recovery time， and therefore， it has an important value in the prevention and treatment of COVID-19.

ObjectiveTo prepare a rat model of heart failure after myocardial infarction by ligation of the anterior descending branch of the left coronary artery， and to observe the effect of Shenfu Yixin granules on the mitochondrial dynamics of rats with heart failure. MethodFifty SD male rats were randomly taken ten as the sham operation group and the rest as modeling group. The rat model of heart failure after myocardial infarction was prepared by ligation of anterior descending branch of left coronary artery. According to the left ventricular ejection fraction（LVEF） on the 28^th day after operation， the model rats were randomly divided into the model group， Shenfu Yixin granule low-dose and high-dose groups（3.011， 15.055 g·kg^-1） and sacubitril valsartan sodium group（20.83 mg·kg^-1）. Each administration group was gavaged daily with the corresponding dose of drug solution， while the sham operation group and model group were given the same amount of normal saline once a day for 28 days， with 6 rats in each group. Ultrasound was used to detect the cardiac function parameters， rat heart mass and body mass were weighed to calculate the cardiac mass index， enzyme linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） was used to detect serum brain natriuretic peptide（BNP） and soluble growth stimulation expressed gene 2 protein（sST2） levels. Hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to observe the pathological morphology of the myocardium. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of mitochondrial fusion protein 1/2（Mfn1/2）， optic atrophy protein 1（Opa1）， dynamin-related protein 1（Drp1） and fission protein 1（Fis1）. ResultCompared with the sham operation group， the mRNA and protein expression of LVEF， Mfn1， Mfn2， Opal in the model group decreased（P<0.05）， while BNP， sST2， cardiac mass index， Drp1， Fis1 mRNA and protein levels increased（P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the expression of LVEF， Mfn1， Mfn2， Opal mRNA and protein increased in Shenfu Yixin granule high-dose and sacubitril valsartan sodium groups（P<0.05）， while BNP， sST2， cardiac mass index， Drp1， Fis1 mRNA and protein levels decreased（P<0.05）. Pathological observation showed that compared with the sham operation group， the model group had disordered arrangement of myocardial cells， inflammatory cell infiltration and myocardial fibrosis. Compared with the model group， the degree of inflammatory cell infiltration， myocardial or interstitial fibrosis was improved and alleviated in all administered groups. ConclusionShenfu Yixin granules can resist heart failure， reduce cardiac mass index， decrease BNP and sST2 contents， and improve cardiac function. Its mechanism may be related to the adjustment of mitochondrial dynamics.
