Objective:
To analyze the association between fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure in the air and dyslipidemia among primary school students, in order to provide the evidencebased support for the prevention and control of chronic diseases in children.
Methods:
The random sampling method was used to select 625 students from two primary schools in Anhui Province and Tianjin City from May to June 2024. Based on the home address, the annual average exposure levels of PM2.5 were obtained in 3 years before investigation, 2 years before investigation, and the past year before investigation. Fasting blood samples were collected for the detection of total cholesterol, triglycerides (TG), highdensity lipoprotein cholesterol and lowdensity lipoprotein cholesterol. Linear regression modeling was used to analyze the association between PM2.5 exposure and dyslipidemia among primary school students.
Results:
The rate of dyslipidemia among primary school students was 14.72% in the present study. The results of linear regression analysis showed that the TG increased by 0.019(95%CI=0.012-0.025),0.023(95%CI=0.016-0.030) and 0.021(95%CI=0.014-0.027) mmol/L for every 1 μg/m3 increase of PM2.5 in the past year before investigation, 2 years before investigation and 3 years before investigation respectively (P<0.05). The results of binary Logisitic analysis showed that the risks of dyslipidemia in primary school students were positively correlated with PM2.5 mass concentration in the past year before investigation, 2 years before investigation, and 3 years before investigation [OR(95%CI)=1.06(1.02-1.11), 1.06(1.01-1.12), 1.06(1.01-1.11), P<0.05].
Conclusions
PM2.5 exposure is associated with increased risk of dyslipidemia among primary school students. To protect the health of primary school students, effective measures should be taken to improve air quality.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic intestinal autoimmune disease, with clinical manifestations including abdominal pain, diarrhea, mucus and bloody stools, and its pathogenesis is complex. The classic prescription Xianglian pills (XLP) has been widely used in the clinical treatment of UC in recent years. It has few adverse reactions, good patient tolerance, and shows significant potential for clinical application. However, there is currently no comprehensive integration of evidence on its clinical research and molecular mechanisms. Through a systematic review of the clinical research and molecular mechanisms of XLP in the treatment of UC, it is found that XLP and its modified formulas, when used in combination with chemical drugs, can significantly improve the symptoms of UC patients and reduce intestinal inflammation, with superior efficacy compared to chemical drugs alone. Its mechanism of action involves regulating pan-apoptosis, immune response, signaling pathways (hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, nuclear factor-κB, etc.), intestinal flora, and repairing the intestinal mucosal barrier. Its medicinal materials, monomers and active components can also prevent the differentiation of helper T cells 17 and restore the balance of M1/M2 cells through regulating multiple pathways such as Wnt/β -catenin and Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription, thereby reducing intestinal damage in UC.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between CHA 2DS 2-VASC score and the recurrence risk of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Methods:It was a retrospective cohort study. A total of 150 patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in Xingtai People′s Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were consecutively included in the study. According to the preoperative CHA 2DS 2-VASC score, patients were divided into high score group (≥3 points, n=90) and low score group (<3 points, n=60). Baseline clinical data was collected. All patients underwent circumferential pulmonary vein isolation, and those with atrial flutter before ablation also underwent tricuspid isthmus isolation. Holter and electrocardiogram examinations were performed at 3, 6 months and 1 year after ablation to evaluate whether there was recurrence of atrial fibrillation. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the risk factors for recurrence of atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Results:Among 150 patients 90 were males and 60 were females with a mean age of (64.0±3.6) years. There were no significant differences in age, sex, and proportion of hypertension, diabetes, chronic heart failure and stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA), medication of antiarrhythmic and anticoagulant drugs between the two groups (all P>0.05). The longest duration of atrial fibrillation in the high score group was significantly longer than that in the low score group (26.0±6.1) hours vs. (10.0±2.1) hours, P<0.05). There were no patients with cardiac tamponade, atrial esophageal fistula and severe vascular puncture complications in the two groups. During the follow-up period, the recurrence rate in the high score group was significantly higher than that in the low score group (16.7% (15/90) vs. 8.3% (5/60), P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that CHA 2DS 2-VASC score≥3 was an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation ( HR=3.84, 95% CI: 1.87-7.89, P=0.02). Conclusion:CHA 2DS 2-VASC score≥3 is an independent risk factor for atrial fibrillation recurrence in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation.

Clinical data of 15 primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) children aged ≤18 years admitted to our hospital between May 2013 to May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Our goal was to summarize the clinical features of children and investigate the therapeutic effect of a high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) based chemotherapy regimen on this disease. The male-to-female ratio was 2.7∶1, and the median age was 7.2 (2.3-16.4) years at diagnosis. The initial clinical symptoms were primarily cranial hypertension, with imaging findings revealing multiple lesions. Pediatric PCNSL with normal immune function has a favorable prognosis with HD-MTX-based chemotherapy. Patients with a stable disease can be treated with minimal or no maintenance. HD-MTX-based chemotherapy remains effective when the disease progresses or recurs after an initial course of non-HD-MTX-based chemotherapy.
