OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy of dydrogesterone combined with estradiol valerate for the prevention of intrauterine adhesion （IUA） and prognosis improvement after induced abortion. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI， Wanfang Data， VIP， CBM， PubMed， Embase and the Cochrane Library， randomized controlled trial （RCT） about conventional treatment combined with dydrogesterone and estradiol valerate （trial group） versus conventional treatment （control group） for the prevention of IUA in patients after induced abortion were collected from the inception to Dec. 2024. After screening the literature， extracting data and evaluating the quality of literature， meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 12 RCTs were included， involving 1 109 patients. Meta-analysis showed that the postoperative incidence of IUA [RR＝0.30， 95%CI （0.22， 0.41）， P＜0.000 01]， postoperative vaginal bleeding time [MD＝－1.69， 95%CI （－2.05， －1.32）， P＜0.000 01]， postoperative vaginal bleeding volume [MD＝－10.78， 95%CI （－12.19， －9.37）， P＜0.000 01]， postoperative menstrual resumption time [MD＝－6.99， 95%CI （－8.27， －5.71）， P＜0.000 01]， and the incidence of postoperative reduced menstrual flow [RR＝0.25， 95%CI （0.12， 0.56）， P＝0.000 7] were significantly lower， less or shorter than control group； postoperative endometrial thickness [MD＝ 1.90， 95%CI （1.68， 2.13）， P＜0.000 01] and the rate of postoperative re-pregnancy [RR＝6.26， 95%CI （1.88， 20.83）， P＝0.003] were significantly higher than control group. CONCLUSIONS Dydrogesterone combined with estradiol valerate may reduce the incidence of IUA after induced abortion patients， decrease postoperative vaginal bleeding volume， shorten postoperative vaginal bleeding time and postoperative menstrual resumption time， and increase postoperative endometrial thickness.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence trends of different types of elevated blood pressure and their association with nutritional status among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia from 2019 to 2024, providing references for targeted prevention strategies. Methods: From September 2019 to 2024, a stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 12 primary and secondary schools from each league city in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. A total of 177 108, 137 758, 190 182, 180 084 , 188 056, 180 351 primary and secondary school students (excluding grades one to three of primary school) were included for physical examination. The correlation between their nutritional status and high blood pressure was analyzed based on the basic situation of 129 821 primary and secondary school students who completed a questionnaire survey at the same time in 2024. Statistical analysis was conducted using a Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression model. Results: From 2019 to 2024, the detection rates of elevated blood pressure were 13.60%, 13.68%, 17.60%, 17.24%, 14.77% and 15.96%, respectively. The rates for isolated systolic hypertension were 4.24%, 5.83%, 7.26%, 7.19%, 6.24% and 6.93%; isolated diastolic hypertension rates were 6.38%, 4.99%, 6.23 %, 6.41%, 5.39% and 5.66%; and combined systolic and diastolic hypertension rates were 2.97%, 2.86%, 4.11%, 3.65%, 3.14 % and 3.36%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that girls, junior high school, senior high school, overweight, and obesity were positively associated with elevated blood pressure risk ( OR =1.27, 1.25, 1.32, 1.66, 3.07, all P <0.05); conversely, county residence, Mongolian ethnicity, and other ethnicities showed negative associations ( OR =0.90, 0.93, 0.90, all P <0.05). Conclusions Overweight and obesity among children and adolescents are closely related to various types of elevated blood pressure. Prevention strategies should prioritize effectively controlling weight issues among children and adolescents, thereby effectively reducing the incidence of elevated blood pressure.

ObjectiveBased on the quality evaluation experience of "it is better to have a fragrant and strong aroma" summarized by materia medica of past dynasties， the chemical components of Sojae Semen Nigrum（SSN） and Sojae Semen Praeparatum（SSP） were systematically compared and analyzed， and the main fermentation products in different fermentation time were quantitatively analyzed， so as to clarify the transformation law of internal components in the processing process and provide scientific basis for the modern quality control of SSP. MethodUltra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole tandem time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） was used for the structural identification of the chemical constituents of SSN and SSP， and with the aid of Progenesis QI v2.3 software， the negative ion mode was employed for principal component analysis（PCA） pattern recognition， and the data were analyzed with the aid of orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA） for two-dimensional data to obtain S-plot， and components with |P|>0.1 were selected as the differential constituents. The contents of isoflavonoids in SSP during fermentation was determined by UPLC， and the samples were taken every 8 h in the pre-fermentation period and every 2 d in the post-fermentation period， and the dynamic changes of isoflavonoid contents in different fermentation stages were analyzed. The contents of amino acids and nucleosides in SSP and SSN from different fermentation stages were quantitatively analyzed by phenyl isothiocyanate（PITC） pre-column derivatization and high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） gradient elution， and the contribution of flavor substances to the "delicious" taste of SSP was discussed by taste intensity value（TAV）. ResultA total of 19 kinds of differential components were screened out， mainly soybean saponins and isoflavones， and their contents decreased significantly or even disappeared after fermentation. In the pre-fermentation process of SSP， glycoside bond hydrolysis mainly occurred， and isoflavone glycosides in SSN were degraded and converted into the corresponding aglycones， the content of flavor substances such as amino acids increased gradually. In the post-fermentation process， protein degradation mainly occurred， after 8 d of post-fermentation， the content of isoflavones was basically stable， while the total content of amino acids increased by 8-40 times on average. Different amino acids form the special flavor of SSP， such as the TAV of glutamate is always ahead of other flavor substances， and sweet substances such as alanine and valine have made relatively great contributions to SSP. ConclusionBased on the law of constituent transformation， combined with the traditional evaluation index of "fragrant and strong"， it is difficult to control the fermentation degree of SSP by the existing standards in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. It is suggested that description of the characteristics of SSP be refined and changed to "fragrant， delicious and slightly sweet"， and at the same time， the post-fermentation index compounds such as glutamic acid， alanine and valine should be added as the quality control indicators of SSP， so as to standardize the production process and improve the quality of SSP.

Objective To investigate whether embolization surgery can improve mid-to-long-term outcomes related to quality of life,anxiety and depression in patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms(UIA).Methods This prospective study included patients diagnosed with UIA within 30 days.Patients were divided into two groups based on treatment:the embolization group and the conservative group.The assessments of quality of life,depression,and anxiety were conducted using the medical outcome study short form-36(SF-36),self-rating depression scale(SDS),and self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)at baseline,3 months,and 5 years after treatment.In the embolization group,psychological trauma was assessed using the impact of event scale-revised(IES-R)at 3 months and 5 years post-surgery.Results A total of 113 patients were involved in the analysis including 76 in the embolization group and 37 in the conservative group.Compared to the conservative group,SF-36 data showed that the embolization group had a lower physical function(80.3±16.4 vs.86.1±12.8,P=0.046)and role-physical(47.37±43.32 vs.67.57±34.29,P=0.015)scores at 3 months,but a higher mental health score(68.16±18.80 vs.61.62±14.62,P=0.048).At 5 years,all dimensions of SF-36 improved significantly compared to baseline(all P<0.05).The SDS and SAS scores in the embolization group were significantly lower at both 3 months and 5 years compared to baseline(both P<0.05).The decrease in SDS(-2.8±10.6 vs.0.5±6.5)and SAS(-2.7±11.8 vs.1.2±5.4)scores in the embolization group at 3 months was greater than in the conservative group(both P<0.05).Subgroup analysis showed that patients with depression or anxiety at baseline in the embolization group experienced a significant decrease in SDS and SAS scores at 3 months and 5 years compared to baseline(both P<0.05).Additionally,in the embolization group,the IES-R score at 3 months was 37.5±13.8,which was significantly higher than the critical threshold(P=0.005),but decreased to 33.8±13.3 at 5 years post-surgery.Conclusions Patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms experienced long-term improvements in quality of life after embolization surgery.Embolization surgery also helped alleviate depression and anxiety.

Objective Exploring the clinical application value of long chain non-coding RNA(lncRNA)H19 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients with osteoporosis(OP).Methods A total of 176 patients with T2DM admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of the First People's Hospital of Lianyungang City from December 2022 to June 2023 were selected.They were divided into OP group(n=100)and simple T2DM group(n=76)according to the results of bone mineral density(BMD)determination by dual-energy X-ray.General data and biochemical indicators were compared between the two groups.The correlation between lncRNA H19 and other clinical indicators was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis and the influencing factors for T2DM with OP were analyzed by logistic regression.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of lncRNA H19 in T2DM with OP.Results Compared with T2DM group,the proportion of females,age,HbA1c,TC and TGF-β1 were higher(P<0.05),while BMI,SUA,BMD and lncRNA H19 were lower in OP group(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that lncRNA H19 expression level was positively correlated with BMI,SUA and BMD(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with age,HbA1c and TGF-β1(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age,BMI,TC,TGF-β1 and lncRNA H19 were the influencing factors for T2DM combined with OP(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of lncRNA H19 in the diagnosis of T2DM with OP was 0.839,the sensitivity was 76.3%,and the specificity was 86.0%.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age,TGF-β1 and OP were the influencing factors for lncRNA H19(P<0.05).Conclusion LncRNA H19 expression decreased in PBMCs in patients with T2DM with OP,which may participate in the occurrence and development of T2DM with OP through glucose metabolism and lncRNA H19/TGF-β1 pathway.

Gag-Pol protein is one of the important structural proteins of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV),comprising the basic scaffold proteins and functional enzymes required during the lifecycle of HIV.Currently,the inhibitors targeting different functional domains on Gag-Pol include capsid(CA)inhibitors,protease inhibitors,reverse transcriptase inhibitors,and integrase inhibitors.The CA inhibitors inhibit the maturation of CA or disrupt the assembly of CA,so as to affect the replication of HIV.The primary mechanism of protease inhibitors is to inhibit the protease from cleaving at the cleavage site CA-spacer peptide 1(SP1).The reverse transcriptase inhibitors block the reverse transcription process of HIV by mimicking the reverse transcription substrates.The integrase inhibitors impact the activity of integrase by targeting the zinc-finger structure at the active center of integrase.This article summarizes the inhibitors targeting HIV Gag-Pol protein and their mechanisms,and reviews the approved dosages and usages of approved patent drugs,so as to provide the references for the future clinical combination therapies and the development of new inhibitors targeting HIV Gag-Pol protein.

Objective:To discuss the effect of Aspergillus fumigatus(Af)on DNA damage and interleukin(IL)-33 expression in the human bronchial epithelial cells,and to clarify its related mechanism.Methods:Different concentrations(1,5,and 10 mg·L-1)of Af were used to stimulate the bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells to select the appropriate stimulation concentration.When the BEAS-2B cells were treated with N-acetylcysteine(NAC)and Af,the cells were divided into control group,Af group,NAC group,and Af+NAC group.When the BEAS-2B cells were treated with DNA double-strand break repair inhibitor NU7441 and Af,the cells were divided into control group,Af group,NU7441 group,and Af+NU7441 group.The comet assay was used to detect the percentages of comet tail DNA of cells in various groups;immunofluorescence method was used to detect the expression levels of DNA damage-related protein phosphorylated H2AX(yH2AX)in the cells in various groups;2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate(DCFH-DA)fluorescence probe was used to detect the levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in the cells in various groups;real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the expression levels of interleukih-33(IL-33),thymic stromal lymphopoietin(TSLP),and interleukih-25(IL-25)mRNA in the cells in various groups;Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of phosphorylated nuclear factor κB(p-NF-κB),phosphorylated ataxia telangiectasia mutated(p-ATM),and γH2AX proteins in the cells in various groups.Results:Compared with control group,the percentage of comet tail DNA and the expression level of γH2AX in the cells in 1 mg·L-1 Af group showed no significant difference(P＞0.05),while the percentage of comet tail DNA and the expression level of γH2AX in the cells in 5 mg·L-1 Af group were significantly increased(P＜0.01);compared with 5 mg·L-1 Af group,the percentage of comet tail DNA and the expression level of γH2AX in the cells in 10 mg·L-1 Af group were significantly increased(P＜0.01).Compared with control group,the ROS levels in the bronchial epithelial cells in 1 mg·L-1 Af group was significantly increased(P＜0.05);compared with 1 mg·L-1 Af group,the ROS level in the cells in 5 mg·L-1 Af group was significantly increased(P＜0.01);compared with 5 mg·L-1 Af group,the ROS level in the cells in 10 mg·L-1 Af group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).After treatment of NAC,compared with Af group,the percentage of comet tail DNA(P＜0.01),the expression level of γH2AX(P＜0.05),and the ROS level(P＜0.01)in the cells in Af+NAC group were significantly decreased;after treatment of NU7441,compared with Af group,the percentage of comet tail DNA and the expression level of yH2AX in the cells in Af+NU7441 group were significantly increased(P＜0.01).The RT-qPCR results showed that after treatment of NAC,compared with control group,the expression level of IL-33 mRNA in the cells in Af group was significantly increased(P＜0.05);compared with Af group,the expression level of IL-33 mRNA in the cells in Af+NAC group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05);after treatment of NU7441,compared with Af group,the expression level of IL-33 mRNA in the cells in Af+NU7441 group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).The Western blotting results showed that after treatment of NAC,compared with control group,the expression levels of p-NF-κB,p-ATM,and γH2AX proteins in the cells in Af group were significantly increased(P＜0.05);after treatment of NU7441,compared with Af group,the expression levels of p-NF-κB,p-ATM,and γH2AX proteins in the cells in Af+NAC group were significantly decreased(P＜0.05);After treat ment of NU7441,compared with Af group,the expression levels of p-NF-κB,p-ATM,and γH2AX proteins in the cells in Af+NU7441 group were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Af promotes the IL-33 expression in the human bronchial epithelial cells by causing DNA damage,and its mechanism may be related to the activation of ATM/NF-κB signaling pathway.
