BACKGROUND:The causal relationship between modifiable factors such as lifestyle,metabolic characteristics,and nutritional intake and joint sports injuries has been increasingly recognized in clinical studies.However,the exact causal relationship between these modifiable factors and joint sports injuries remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the causal relationship between modifiable factors and joint sports injuries using Mendelian randomization to provide a basis for sports injury prevention. METHODS:The GWAS dataset of intervening factors and joint sports injuries was obtained from publicly available data.The causal relationships between lifestyle,metabolic characteristics,nutritional intake,and joint sports injuries were explored using the inverse variance weighting method,the MR-Egger method,and the weighted median method.For sensitivity analyses,Cochran's Q test,MR-Egger regression,leave-one-out method,and MR-PRESSO were used to verify the stability and reliability of the results. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In terms of lifestyle,coffee(OR=0.29,95%CI:0.10-0.79,P=0.016),and tea consumption(OR=0.41,95%CI=0.19-0.85,P=0.017)were associated with a decreased risk of ankle and foot joint sports injuries,and coffee consumption(OR=3.31,95%CI=1.02-10.73,P=0.046)was potentially causally associated with an increased risk of shoulder joint sports injuries;and never smoking(OR=0.78,95%CI=0.70-0.87,P=1.49×10-5)was significantly causally associated with a decreased risk of ankle and foot joint sports injuries.(2)In terms of metabolic characteristics,calcium levels(OR=0.88,95%CI=0.79-0.98,P=0.017)were potentially causally associated with a decreased risk of wrist and hand joint sports injuries.(3)In terms of nutritional intake,vitamin A intake(OR=1.08,95%CI:1.02-1.13,P=0.007)was potentially causally associated with increased risk of knee joint sports injury.(4)For the sensitivity analysis,Cochran's Q test showed the existence of heterogeneity(P<0.05),so the random effect model was used for the analysis.MR-Egger regression and MR-PRESSO test did not find evidence of pleiotropy(P>0.05),and the leave-one-out method showed that the results were stable after eliminating single nucleotide polymorphisms one by one.(5)This study preliminarily reveals the effects of modifiable factors,such as lifestyle,metabolic characteristics,and nutritional intake,on the risk of joint sports injuries.It provides valuable research evidence and guidance for the prevention of joint sports injuries.

Metabolic-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) and osteoporosis (OP) are two very common metabolic diseases. A growing body of experimental evidence supports a pathophysiological link between MAFLD and OP. MAFLD is often associated with the development of OP. Rutaecarpine (RUT) is one of the main active components of Chinese medicine Euodiae Fructus. Our previous studies have demonstrated that RUT has lipid-lowering, anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic effects, and can improve the OP of rats. However, whether RUT can improve both fatty liver and OP symptoms of MAFLD mice at the same time remains to be investigated. In this study, we used C57BL/6 mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) for 4 months to construct a MAFLD model, and gave the mice a low dose (5 mg·kg^-1) and a high dose (15 mg·kg^-1) of RUT by gavage for 4 weeks. The effects of RUT on liver steatosis and bone metabolism were then evaluated at the end of the experiment [this experiment was approved by the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of Institute of Medicinal Biotechnology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (approval number: IMB-20190124D₃03)]. The results showed that RUT treatment significantly reduced hepatic steatosis and lipid accumulation, and significantly reduced bone loss and promoted bone formation. In summary, this study shows that RUT has an effect of improving fatty liver and OP in MAFLD mice.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of budesonide combined with pulmonary surfactant(PS)in the treatment of meconium aspiration syndrome(MAS)in neonates.Methods PubMed,Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials(Central),Embase,Web of Science,SinoMed,VIP,WanFang Data and CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of budesonide combined with PS in the treatment of neonatal MAS from inception to September 2,2023.Two researchers independently screened literature,extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies,meta-analyses were performed by using the RevMan 5.4 software.Results A total of 6 RCTs involving 544 patients were included.The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with PS group,budesonide combined with PS group had higher overall effective rate(RR=1.29,95％CI 1.17 to 1.41,P＜0.001),shorter hospital stay(MD=-6.35,95％CI-9.25 to-3.46,P＜0.001)and shorter time of oxygen inhalation(MD=-1.61,95％CI-2.23 to-0.98,P＜0.001),shorter the duration of ventilator use(MD=-26.46,95％CI-35.98 to-16.95,P＜0.001),improved the blood gas analysis indexes at each time after treatment(P＜0.05);In terms of safety,the incidence of total complications and adverse reactions in budesonide combined with PS group was significantly lower(RR=0.35,95％CI 0.25 to 0.47,P＜0.001).Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn(PPHN)in the budesonide combined with PS group was decreased(RR=0.38,95％CI 0.19 to 0.74,P=0.004),and the incidence of pneumorrhagia was decreased(RR=0.26,95％CI 0.10 to 0.69,P=0.007),and the difference was statistically significant;the incidence of heart failure and sepsis was not statistically significant compared with the PS group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Current evidence shows that budesonide combined with PS in the treatment of neonatal meconium aspiration syndrome can improve the symptoms and signs of MAS children,improve the blood gas analysis index,accelerate disease rehabilitation,shorten the course of the disease,can help reduce the risk of complications and PPHN,pneumorrhagia,and doesn't increase the incidence of heart failure,sepsis.Due to the limited quantity of the included studies,more high-quality and large-sample RCTs are needed to further validate the above conclusions.

BACKGROUND:Clinical evidences have suggested a correlation between metabolic factors and sarcopenia.Blood metabolites have been found as biological factors underlying the mechanisms of musculoskeletal disorders.However,the causal relationship between blood metabolites and sarcopenia is unclear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the causal relationship between blood metabolites and sarcopenia-related traits through a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis and to analyze their metabolic pathways. METHODS:A dataset of 486 blood metabolites and sarcopenia-related traits was obtained from public databases.The inverse variance weighting,MR-Egger and weighted median methods were used to assess the causal relationship of blood metabolites with muscle mass and strength across genders.Sensitivity analyses,including heterogeneity and gene pleiotropy,were performed to explore the robustness of the results.Metabolic pathway analysis of potential causal relationships was performed using the Metaboanayst 5.0 tool. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 124 metabolites and sarcopenia-related traits were observed to have potential causal relationships(P<0.05).Mannose and 1-arachidonoylglycerophosphocholine were significantly causally associated with an increased muscle mass in males(P<1.03×10-4).Pentadecanoate and glycine were significantly causally associated with decreased muscle mass and muscle strength in females,respectively(P<1.03×10-4).Metabolic pathway analysis identified eight metabolic pathways associated with altered levels of muscle mass and muscle strength in sarcopenia,including the"glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism"and"Glycine,serine and threonine metabolism."The identified metabolites are considered as useful circulating metabolic biomarkers for screening and prevention of sarcopenia in clinical practice,serving as candidate molecules for future mechanistic exploration and drug target selection.
