To develop a guideline terminology system and promote its standardization, thereby enhancing medical staff's accurate understanding and correct application of guidelines.

Biomolecular condensates are formed through phase separation of biomacromolecules such as proteins and RNAs. These condensates exhibit liquid-like properties that can futher transition into more stable material states. They form complex internal structures via multivalent weak interactions, enabling precise spatiotemporal regulations. However, the use of inconsistent and non-standardized terminology has become increasingly problematic, hindering academic exchange and the dissemination of scientific knowledge. Therefore, it is necessary to discuss the terminology related to biomolecular condensates in order to clarify concepts, promote interdisciplinary cooperation, enhance research efficiency, and support the healthy development of this field.

The growth and development of children is an important stage for health, and its monitoringand intervention are related to the long-term development of individuals. The construction of a standardized and multi-dimensional database of pediatric growth and development-related diseases is an important basis for realizing precise diagnosis and treatment and health management. Based on the needs of clinical practice, this study proposes to establish a specialized database of pediatric growth and development-related diseases that integrates facial phenotypes and clinical diagnosis and treatment information. This study elaborates on the construction process, including data sources, data collection content, and the operation and management of the database; and proposes key points for quality control, including the establishment of quality control nodes, database construction standards, and a full-process quality control framework. The above ensure the integrity, logic and effectiveness of the data, so that the database can provide an objective basis for the screening and diagnosis of pediatric growth and development-related diseases. On the basis of scientific data management and strict quality control, the database will help reveal the patterns of children's growth and development, and promote the level of children's health management.

Background: and Purpose This study aimed to investigate the association between residual inflammatory risk (RIR) and vulnerable plaques using high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HRMRI) in symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS). Methods: This retrospective study included 70%–99% symptomatic ICAS patients hospitalized from January 2016 to December 2022. Patients were classified into four groups based on high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C): residual cholesterol inflammatory risk (RCIR, hs-CRP ≥3 mg/L and LDL-C ≥2.6 mmol/L), RIR (hs-CRP ≥3 mg/L and LDL-C <2.6 mmol/L), residual cholesterol risk (RCR, hs-CRP <3 mg/L and LDL-C ≥2.6 mmol/L), and no residual risk (NRR, hs-CRP <3 mg/L and LDL-C <2.6 mmol/L). Vulnerable plaque features on HRMRI included positive remodeling, diffuse distribution, intraplaque hemorrhage, and strong enhancement. Results: Among 336 included patients, 21, 60, 58, and 197 were assigned to the RCIR, RIR, RCR, and NRR groups, respectively. Patients with RCIR (adjusted odds ratio [aOR], 3.606; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.346–9.662; P=0.011) and RIR (aOR, 3.361; 95% CI, 1.774–6.368, P<0.001) had higher risks of strong enhancement than those with NRR. Additionally, patients with RCIR (aOR, 2.965; 95% CI, 1.060–8.297; P=0.038) were more likely to have intraplaque hemorrhage compared with those with NRR. In the sensitivity analysis, RCR (aOR, 2.595; 95% CI, 1.201–5.608; P=0.015) exhibited an additional correlation with an increased risk of intraplaque hemorrhage. Conclusion In patients with symptomatic ICAS, RIR is associated with a higher risk of intraplaque hemorrhage and strong enhancement, indicating an increased vulnerability to atherosclerotic plaques.

In this study, we designed and synthesized 12 novel aloperine derivatives with different core structures. Among them, compound 3 with a ten-membered ring core was obtained through a special ring expansion reaction after γ-H Huffman elimination of quaternary ammonium salt, and the structure was verified by X-single crystal diffraction. Furthermore, their antiviral activity against human β-coronavirus HCoV-OC43 was evaluated by CCK-8 assay. Quaternary ammonium salt 2a and 3 had a good inhibitory effect against HCoV-OC43, and 2a had the highest anti-HCoV-OC43 activity with an EC₅₀ values of 3.77 μmol·L^-1 and a SI value of over 53.1. Schrӧdinger molecular docking results showed that both 2a and 3 might display their anti-HCoV-OC43 activity by directly acting on host TMPRSS2 and SR-B1. The results expanded the structural types of endocyclic aloperine and the function against coronavirus, and provided useful scientific data for the development of pharmaceutical applications of these compounds.

Objective·To investigate the effect of ceria nanoparticles-polyethylene glycol(CeNP-PEG)on scavenging reactive oxygen species(ROS)and alleviating disease activity in dextran sulphate sodium(DSS)-induced colitis mice.Methods·CeNP was synthesized with the hydrates of cerium acetate,oleamine,and xylene,which was modified with polyethylene glycol-stearyl phosphatidylethanolamine(mPEG-DPSE)to obtain CeNP-PEG.Then CeNP-PEG was purified.The particle size and zeta potential of CeNP-PEG were measured by using transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and dynamic light scattering(DLS).Mouse macrophages(Raw264.7)were cultured in vitro and induced to a pro-inflammatory phenotype(M1 phenotype).M1 macrophages were treated with 0.5 μg/mL and 1.0 μg/mL CeNP-PEG,respectively,and then Western blotting was used to detect the expression changes of the proteins related with nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)signaling pathway.DSS-induced colitis mice models were constructed,and CeNP-PEG(1.0 mg/mL)was intravenously administrated for 3 times via tail vein during the modeling period.Meanwhile,the body weight,fecal characteristics,and frequency of rectal bleeding in mice were monitored in the normal control group(Normal group),the model group(DSS group),and the CeNP-PEG treatment group.The disease activity index(DAI)was calculated to evaluate the intestinal inflammation.The level of ROS in mouse intestinal tissues was detected by dihydroethidine(DHE)staining and the mRNA expression levels of inflammatory cytokines interferon-γ(Ifn-γ),interleukin-6(Il-6),Il-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α(Tnf-α)were detected by real-time quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR).Results·The hydrated particle size of synthesized CeNP-PEG was(6.96±0.27)nm,and the average zeta potential was(-6.02±1.31)mV.Western blotting results showed that the expression of p-P65 increased in the pro-inflammatory macrophages compared with the control group.The expression of NF-κB inhibitor-α(IκB-α)decreased,and their expressions tended to recover after the intervention of different concentrations of CeNP-PEG.In the DSS-induced colitis models,mice in the CeNP-PEG treatment group lost less weight than those in the DSS group(P= 0.000)and had lower DAI scores(P=0.000).The RT-qPCR results of intestinal tissues showed that the mRNA levels of Ifn-γ,Il-1β,Il-6 and Tnf-α in the DSS group were significantly up-regulated compared with those in the Normal group(P=0.000),and all of them significantly decreased in the CeNP-PEG treatment group.The results of DHE staining showed that the fluorescence intensity of intestinal tissues in the DSS group was significantly enhanced than that in the Normal group,and the fluorescence intensity decreased in the CeNP-PEG treatment group.Conclusion·CeNP-PEG can inhibit the expression of intestinal inflammatory factors and the activation of NF-κB-related inflammatory pathway of pro-inflammatory macrophages,eliminate intestinal ROS,improve the intestinal inflammatory microenvironment,and alleviate the disease activity of DSS-induced colitis in mice.
