Objective To investigate the status quo of drug resistance and influencing factors of tuberculosis in In-ner Mongolia,and to provide reference for accurate prevention and control of drug-resistant tuberculosis.Methods Random sampling was used in this study.TB patients from Tuberculosis designated hospital in Inner Mongolia were included,according to the rules and drug-resistant strains were identified and tested according to relevant norms.Composition ratio or rate was calculated for statistical description,and Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of drug resistance in TB patients.Results Among 1 321 patients,there were 936 males and 385 females,with an average age of(52.65±18.09)years.The rates of mono-resistant,multidrug-resistant(MDR),extensively drug-resistant(XDR)and total drug resistance were 19.00%,11.58%,11.66%and 42.24%,respectively.The highest resistance rates were observed for streptomycin(7.27%),isoniazid(4.69%),and isoniazid+streptomycin(4.47%).The drug resistance spectrum presented diversity and com-plexity.Compared to females,males had a higher proportion of drug resistance,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).The proportion of patients who were sensitive to anti-tuberculosis drugs increased with age(P<0.05).Among different age groups,the proportion of drug-resistant patients was higher in the 20-40 age group,40-60 age group,and 60 and above age group compared to the 0-20 age group(P<0.05).Addi-tionally,the proportion of drug-resistant patients was higher in the 20-40 age group and 40-60 age group com-pared to the 60 and above age group(P<0.05).Moreover,the proportion of drug-resistant and multi-drug re-sistant patients was higher among patients undergoing retreatment compared to those undergoing initial treatment(P<0.001).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male gender(OR=1.48,95%CI:1.02-2.14),age 20-40 years(OR=2.64,95%CI:1.05-6.60),retreatment(OR=2.34,95%CI:1.70-3.22),and outpatient follow-up(OR=1.56,95%CI:1.05-2.33)were independent risk factors for drug-resistant tuber-culosis.Conclusion Inner Mongolia has a high prevalence of MDR and overall drug-resistant tuberculosis among patients.The drug resistance profile exhibits diversity and complexity.Risk factors that contribute to drug resist-ance include being male,aged between 20 and 40,undergoing retreatment,and receiving outpatient follow-up.Therefore,it is necessary to further improve clinical diagnosis and treatment,promote rational use of first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs,prioritize individualized treatment,enhance health education,improve the medical insurance system,and optimize patient management approaches in order to enhance patient compliance.

Objective To investigate the nutritional status and dietary structure of tuberculosis patients among dif-ferent populations, analyze the factors influencing the nutritional status of tuberculosis patients, and provide theo-retical basis for improving clinical nutrition and related issues in tuberculosis patients.Methods Tuberculosis pa-tients, non-tuberculosis patients, and healthy individuals were randomly selected for a questionnaire survey.De-scriptive analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0 software.Statistical description was performed using rates and composition ratios, and qualitative data were described using relative numbers.Chi-square test was used to compare overall rates and composition ratios among different health conditions groups, with a significance level of α=0.05.Independent factors analysis of nutritional status body mass index (BMI) was conducted using multiple Logistic re-gression analysis for variables with statistically significant differences in the univariate analysis.Results There were differences in the nutritional status (x2 =62.184, P<0.05) and dietary diversity score (x2 =64.049, P<0.05) among tuberculosis patients, non-tuberculosis patients, and healthy individuals.Univariate analysis of nutri-tional status BMI showed statistically significant differences in gender, smoking, meat-based diet, vegetable-based diet, moderate diet diversity score, and 6 other variables for tuberculosis patients (P <0.05) , and in gender, age, ethnicity, marital status, occupation, education level, smoking, drinking white wine, drinking beer, meat-based diet, moderate diet, and 11 other variables for healthy individuals (P<0.05) .The variables with statisti-cally significant differences in the univariate analysis were included in the multiple ordinal logistic regression analy-sis model for both tuberculosis patients and healthy individuals.The results showed that the level of education, veg-etable intake, moderate food diversity score (DDS) of 4-6 were independent influencing factors of nutritional sta-tus BMI among tuberculosis patients (P<0.05);marital status was an independent influencing factor of nutritional status BMI among non-tuberculosis patients (P<0.05);while gender and occupation were independent influencing factors of nutritional status BMI among healthy individuals (P<0.05).Conclusion The dietary nutritional status of the three population groups varied.Targeted health education should be conducted, especially for tuberculosis patients, to address the issue of uneven dietary intake and promote good dietary habits among local tuberculosis pa-tients.

Objective:Melanoma is highly malignant and heterogeneous.It is essential to develop a specific prognostic model for improving the patients'survival and treatment strategies.Recent studies have shown that ferroptosis results from the overproduction of lipid peroxidation and is an iron-dependent form of programmed cell death.Despite this,ferroptosis-related genes(FRGs)and their clinical significances remain unknown in malignant melanoma.This study aims to assess the role of FRGs in melanoma,with the goal of developing a novel prognostic model that provides new insights into personalized treatment and improvement of therapeutic outcomes for melanoma. Methods:We systematically characterized the genetic alterations and mRNA expression of 73 FRGs in The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)-skin cutaneous melanoma(SKCM)dataset in this study.The results were validated with real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting.Subsequently,a multi-gene feature model was constructed using the TCGA-SKCM cohort.Melanoma patients were classified into a high-risk group and a low-risk group based on the feature model.As a final step,correlations between ferroptosis-related signatures and immune features,immunotherapy efficacy,or drug response were analyzed. Results:By analyzing melanoma samples from TCGA-SKCM dataset,FRGs exhibited a high frequency of genetic mutations and copy number variations(CNVs),significantly impacting gene expression.Additionally,compared with normal skin tissue,30 genes with significantly differential expression were identified in melanoma tissues.A prognostic model related to FRGs,constructed using the LASSO Cox regression method,identified 13 FRGs associated with overall survival prognosis in patients and was validated with external datasets.Finally,functional enrichment and immune response analysis further indicated significant differences in immune cell infiltration,mutation burden,and hypoxia status between the high-risk group and the low-risk group,and the model was effective in predicting responses to immunotherapy and drug sensitivity. Conclusion:This study develops a strong ferroptosis-related prognostic signature model which could put forward new insights into target therapy and immunotherapy for patients with melanoma.

Calcium-activated chloride channels(CaCCs)are a class of channel proteins that trans-port chloride ions activated by intracellular calcium,which play a crucial role in regulating membrane potential,intracellular calcium balance,and cell excitability,particularly in neurons and muscle cells.In the Anoctamin(Ano)family,Ano1 is the most classic CaCC.Targeted modulators of Ano1 have poten-tial therapeutic effects against such diseases as cancer,cystic fibrosis,hypertension,diarrhea,and asthma.Since the discovery of Ano1 in 2008,several methods for screening CaCC-specific modulators have emerged including high-throughput primary screening of fluorescent proteins,electrophysiological patch clamp technique and virtual screening,and identification of small molecule modulators with diverse pharmacological effects.This paper summarizes the principles,advantages and disadvantages of the mainstream screening methods,and reviews the chemical structures and potential applications of Ano1-specific modulators discovered to date.

Objective To investigate the effects of Yuye Decoction(YYD)on diabetic nephropathy(DN)rats with Qi and Yin deficiency based on intestinal flora and intestinal mucosal barrier.Methods The content of the active ingredients puerarin,mangiferin and calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside in YYD freeze dried powder was tested by HPLC to control the quality of YYD freeze dried powder.Forty-five Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group(NC group),Qi-Yin deficiency DN group(M group)and YYD administration group(YYD group;5.03 g·kg-1)according to body weight.Intraperitoneal injections of streptozotocin(STZ)at a dose of 25 mg·kg-1 were administered,accompanied by oral gavage of adix Aconiti Lateralis,Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium Viride and Aurantii Fructus for 8 weeks to establish a Qi-Yin deficiency DN model in rats.During this period,rats in the YYD group were also treated with YYD extract.Weekly body weight and blood glucose levels were monitored for each group,along with observations of physical signs,food and water consumption,swimming time,and urine output in the rats.After 8 weeks,serum levels of cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),low-density lipoprotein(LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein(HDL-C),serum creatinine(SCr)and urinary nitrogen(BUN)were analyzed in rats using automatic biochemical analysis.Hematoxylin-eosin staining(HE)was used to observe the pathological changes in the kidney and colon tissues.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to measure urine protein concentration and serum levels of IgG,IgM,cAMP and cGMP.16SrDNA sequencing was used to sequence faecal flora and some flora were validated by quantitative real-time fluorescence PCR(qRT-PCR).Western blot method was used to measure the levels of intestinal barrier proteins and inflammatory factor proteins.Results The yield of YYD freeze-dried powder was 27.36%and the content of the active ingredients in YYD was 0.3496 mg·g-1 for puerarin,0.1851 mg·g-1 for mangiferin and 0.0429 mg·g-1 for calycosin 7-O-β-D-glucopyranoside.The results of animal experiments indicated that compared with Qi and Yin deficiency DN rats,YYD significantly improved the symptoms of lethargy and fatigue,increased swimming time,reduced water intake and increased food intake;increased the abundance of Bacteroidetes and decreased the abundance of Firmicutes in feces.Furthermore,according to measurements of blood lipids,blood glucose,renal function,IgG and IgM,as well as cAMP and cGMP,which are the energy homeostasis factors of the body,YYD could significantly improve the levels of these indicators in the model rats.HE staining showed that compared with model rats,YYD remarkably alleviated kidney and colon damage;inhibited the expression of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6 in the kidney and colon,and markedly raised the expression levels of renal and colonic kinetic proteins CHRM3 and 5-HT3A as well as mucosal barrier proteins Occludin and ZO-1.Conclusion YYD play a role in preventing and treating in rats with Qi-Yin deficiency DN,and this effect may be related to YYD correcting intestinal flora dysbiosis,delaying intestinal mucosal damage and improving renal and colonic inflammation in the model rats.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To explore the current status of lipid-lowering therapy, the distribution of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and the risk assessment of cardiovascular events recurrence in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) complicated by hypertension.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. Patients with CHD combined with hypertension were hospitalized in the Department of Cardiology, General Hospital of Chinese People′s Liberation Army from August 5, 2008 to July 22, 2018 were included, and were divided into standard group and substandard group according to whether LDL-C reached the standard. Study data were obtained from inpatient coronary angiography records and electronic medical records database of Department of Cardiology, General Hospital of Chinese People′s Liberation Army, who used data from the first diagnosis of CHD. Clinical data of the selected patients were collected. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the associated factors of whether LDL-C reached the standard in CHD patients with hypertension.Results:A total of 18 800 patients were selected from 31 provinces/autonomous regions/municipalities directly under the central government in China, with Beijing accounting for the largest proportion (5 692 patients (30.28%)), followed by Hebei (3 621 patients (19.26%)), Henan (1 837 patients (9.77%)), and Shandong (1 618 patients (8.61%)). Among the selected patients, 1 493 had LDL-C<1.4 mmol/L (standard group), and 17 307 had LDL-C≥1.4 mmol/L (substandard group). Only 1 493 patients (7.94%) had LDL-C<1.4 mmol/L. There were 4 518 patients (24.03%), 4 366 patients (23.22%), 6 924 patients (36.83%) and 1 499 patients (7.97%) with LDL-C for 1.4-<2.0, 2.0-<2.5, 2.5-<3.8 and≥3.8 mmol/L levels, respectively. 17 855 patients (95.15%) were treated with statins, but only 1 334 patients (7.10%) were treated with statins and ezetimibe. Of the selected patients, 4 986 patients (26.52%) were at low risk, 6 515 patients (34.65%) were at intermediate risk, and 7 299 patients (38.82%) were at high risk. The combined lipid-lowering treatment rates of statin and ezetimibe in the middle-and high-risk patients were 7.43% (484/6 515) and 7.48% (546/7 299), respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increasing age, male, diabetes mellitus, stroke, and history of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were positively associated with LDL-C standards in patients with CHD and hypertension, whereas obesity and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) were negatively associated with LDL-C standards (all P<0.01). Conclusions:The rate of achieving the standard LDL-C in patients with CHD combined with hypertension was low in China. Although the majority of patients had received moderate-intensity statin therapy, the proportion of statin-treated patients combined with ezetimibe was extremely low. The proportion of high-risk patients with recurrent cardiovascular events was higher in patients with CHD and hypertension in China, whereas the proportion of such patients receiving statin combined with ezetimibe lipid-lowering therapy was lower. This study also found that increasing age, male, diabetes mellitus, stroke, and history of PCI were positively associated with LDL-C standards, while obesity and AMI were negatively associated with LDL-C standards in patients with CHD and hypertension.
