Objective To explore the carrier rate of thalassemia in Laibin city,Guangxi Province,and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of thalassemia.Methods From January 2020 to December 2021,88 152 patients were screened for thalassemia in the outpatient department of the Women's and Children's Hospital of 4 counties,1 city and 1 district in Laibin by blood cell detection and hemoglobin electrophoresis.The common and rare genes in initially screened positive individuals were detected by gap polymerase chain reaction(Gap-PCR)and reverse dot blot(RBD),and the results were conducted by statistical analysis.Results ① There were 22 553 positive cases in the preliminary screening and 8 327 positive cases received the diagnosis of thalassemia gene.A total of 4 944 thalassemia carriers of thalassemia genes were detected,deducing that the total thalassemia carrier rate in the population of childbearing age in this region was 15.19%,including 3 200 cases of α-thalassemia carriers(64.73%),1 424 cases of β-thalassemia carriers(28.80%),and 320 cases of were carriers α-thalassemia combined with β-thalassemia(6.47%).② There were 3 168 cases of common thalassemia(99.00%)and 32 cases of rare thalassemia(1.00%)among α-thalassemia gene carriers.A total of 13 mutant genes and 34 genotypes were detected,and genotype SEA/αα was the comes first.③ Among the β-thalassemia gene carriers,there were 1 411 cases of(99.09%)common thalassemia and 13 cases(0.91%)of rare thalassemia.A total of 19 mutant genes and 25 genotypes were detected,with CD41-42(-CTTT)being the most common.④ A total of 53 different genotypes were detected in the carriers of α-thalassemia combined with β-thalassemia,and the top genotype was--SEA/αα βCD41-42M/βN.⑤ The carrier rates of Yao and Han nationality were comparable,and the differences were not significant(χ2=0.300,P=0.584).The differences in carrying rates between Zhuang and Yao(χ2=23.66,P＜0.001),and between Zhuang and Han(χ2=116.98,P＜0.001)were significant.⑥ The carrier rate in Xiangzhou County was the highest(20.04%),while the carrier rate in Heshan City was the lowest(12.38%).⑦ The carrier rate of females was higher than that of males,and the difference was significant(χ2=182.03,P＜0.001).Conclusion The variants genotypes of thalassemia in Laibin were complex.This study was the first to investigate the carrier rate and gene mutation spectrum of thalassemia in Laibin Area,which provides valuable baseline data for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.

Objective:To assess the safety and feasibility of selectively preserving the first branch of the right gastro-omental artery using bidirectional dissection in laparoscopic pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (LPPG).Methods:In this retrospective analysis, we studied preoperative, intraoperative, postoperative, and follow-up data of 30 patients with early gastric cancer treated in the Department of Gastric Cancer in Zhejiang Cancer Hospital (28 patients), Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery in Jiaxing Second Hospital (one patient) and Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery in Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital (one patient) who had undergone selective preservation of the first branch of the right gastro-omental artery during LPPG. The main variables studied were as follows: (1) intraoperative preservation of the first branch of the right gastro-omental artery; (2) the overall surgical situation; and (3) postoperative small bowel follow-through and endoscopy findings.Results:LPPG with selective preservation of the right gastro-omental artery vascular branch was achieved in all 30 of the study patients. The mean operation time was (244.3±29.3) minutes and the median intraoperative blood loss 50 (20–200) mL. The median tumor diameter was 1.2 (0.5–3.6) cm and an average of 32.3±11.6 lymph nodes were dissected. The overall median number of positive lymph nodes was 0 (0–6), and of No. 6 lymph nodes 5.1±1.5. Postoperative feeding resumed at an average of 5.2±0.5 days and the postoperative hospital stay averaged 8.4±3.4 days. Pathological stages were as follows: T1a (14 cases), T1b (10 cases), and T2 (6 cases). Small bowel follow-through imaging showed good results in 28 patients 5 days post-surgery, the remaining two exhibiting good results 9 days post-surgery. There were no instances of delayed gastric emptying, and only one patient (3.3%) developed intra-abdominal infection (resolved with conservative treatment).Conclusion:Selective preservation of the right gastro-omental artery during laparoscopic early gastric cancer surgery is a safe and feasible procedure for treating early mid-gastric body cancer with pyloric preservation.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective To compare the lipid-lowering efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combination and free combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe in hypercholesterolemia patients who fail to achieve low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)goal with statin monotherapy.Methods A total of 45 hypercholesterolemia patients who switched from statin monotherapy to fixed-dose combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe after failing to achieve target LDL-C goal admitted at cardiological departments of First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University,Nanhai Fourth People's Hospital,Foshan First People's Hospital,and Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital between March and June 2024 were enrolled and served as the study group.Another 120 hyper-cholesterolemia patients who treated with free combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe were se-lected from Xiamen Regional Health Medical Big Data Platform with propensity score matching and served as control group.The LDL-C level,LDL-C reduction,and changes in TC,HDL-C and TG levels in 4-6 weeks after the medication switch,as well as the safety indicators(AST,ALT,CK,Cre and eGFR)were compared between the two groups.Results In 4-6 weeks after the medication switch,the patients in the study group exhibited a significant decrease in LDL-C level(1.70±0.44 mmol/L vs 2.12±0.87 mmol/L,P＜0.01),obvious LDL-C reduction[(43.17±16.11)％vs(29.14±29.13)％,P＜0.01]when compared to those of the control group.The LDL-C goal attainment rate was significantly higher in the study group than the control group(71.11％vs 45.00％,P=0.003).In addition,there were no statistical differences in the levels of HDL-C and TG and the reductions of HDL-C and TG between the two groups in 4-6 weeks after treatment(P＞0.05).The study group obtained notably lower TC level and TC reduction than the control group in the time(P＜/0.05,P＜0.01).After treatment,no statistical differences were observed between the two groups in terms of AST,ALT,CK,Cre and eGFR(P＞0.05).Conclusion Com-pared to free combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe,fixed-dose combination can further reduce LDL-C level in hypercholesterolemia patients who have not achieved LDL-C goal with statin monotherapy,with higher LDL-C goal attainment rate and good safety.

Objective: To understand the needs of parents of kindergarten children in urban areas for online training on sexuality education, so as to provide a basis for the development of parent training courses. Methods: In May 2023, a multistage cluster random sampling method was used to select 3 516 parents of young children from 12 kindergartens in urban areas of Changshou District, Chongqing. A self designed questionnaire on Knowledge, Attitude and Practice of Early Childhood Sexuality Education (Parents) was used for the survey, and χ 2 test and multi factor Logistic regression model were used for data analysis. Results: The online training demand rate of urban parents for early childhood sexuality education was 57.05%. The results of the multi factor Logistic regression analysis showed that age, education level, occupation, whether or not they were the main caregivers, total score level of the scale, awareness of their own responsibility, communication with family and friends about early childhood sexuality education and young children s participation in kindergarten sexuality education activities were the influencing factors of parents online training demand on sexuality education ( OR =1.18, 1.44, 1.42, 0.83, 1.19, 0.51, 0.75, 0.75, P <0.05). Conclusion Urban parents have a high demand for online training on early childhood sexuality education, and training courses should be developed according to the specific needs and characteristics of parents of young children.

Breast cancer remains a leading cause of mortality in women worldwide.Triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)is a particularly aggressive subtype characterized by rapid progression,poor prognosis,and lack of clear therapeutic targets.In the clinic,delineation of tumor heterogeneity and development of effective drugs continue to pose considerable challenges.Within the scope of our study,high hetero-geneity inherent to breast cancer was uncovered based on the landscape constructed from both tumor and healthy breast tissue samples.Notably,TNBC exhibited significant specificity regarding cell prolif-eration,differentiation,and disease progression.Significant associations between tumor grade,prog-nosis,and TNBC oncogenes were established via pseudotime trajectory analysis.Consequently,we further performed comprehensive characterization of the TNBC microenvironment.A crucial epithelial subcluster,E8,was identified as highly malignant and strongly associated with tumor cell proliferation in TNBC.Additionally,epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)-associated fibroblast and M2 macrophage subclusters exerted an influence on E8 through cellular interactions,contributing to tumor growth.Characteristic genes in these three cluster cells could therefore serve as potential therapeutic targets for TNBC.The collective findings provided valuable insights that assisted in the screening of a series of therapeutic drugs,such as pelitinib.We further confirmed the anti-cancer effect of pelitinib in an orthotopic 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model.Overall,our study sheds light on the unique characteristics of TNBC at single-cell resolution and the crucial cell types associated with tumor cell proliferation that may serve as potent tools in the development of effective anti-cancer drugs.

Objective To explore the biomarkers and potential mechanisms of chronic restraint stress-induced myocardial injury in hyperlipidemia ApoE-/-mice.Methods The hyperlipidemia combined with the chronic stress model was established by restraining the ApoE-/-mice.Proteomics and bioinformatics techniques were used to describe the characteristic molecular changes and related regulatory mechanisms of chronic stress-induced myocardial injury in hyperlipidemia mice and to explore potential diagnostic biomarkers.Results Proteomic analysis showed that there were 43 significantly up-regulated and 58 sig-nificantly down-regulated differentially expressed proteins in hyperlipidemia combined with the restraint stress group compared with the hyperlipidemia group.Among them,GBP2,TAOK3,TFR1 and UCP1 were biomarkers with great diagnostic potential.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis indicated that fer-roptosis was a significant pathway that accelerated the myocardial injury in hyperlipidemia combined with restraint stress-induced model.The mmu_circ_0001567/miR-7a/Tfr-1 and mmu_circ_0001042/miR-7a/Tfr-1 might be important circRNA-miRNA-mRNA regulatory networks related to ferroptosis in this model.Conclusion Chronic restraint stress may aggravate myocardial injury in hyperlipidemia mice via ferrop-tosis.Four potential biomarkers are selected for myocardial injury diagnosis,providing a new direction for sudden cardiac death(SCD)caused by hyperlipidemia combined with the restraint stress.

Objective To investigate the association between the serum creatinine/cystatin C ratio(SCr/Cys C)as a Sarcopenia index(SI)and the incidence of in-hospital adverse events in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Additionally,we evaluate the predictive efficacy of the SI in predicting major adverse cardiovascular events(MACEs)during hospitalization.Methods A total of 306 patients with AMI who underwent emergency PCI in the 904th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force from January 2020 to March 2023 were consecutively included in this retrospective analysis.Patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of MACEs during hospitalization:MACEs group(n=43)and non-MACEs group(n=263).Clinical characteristics and pre-PCI laboratory test results were collected.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for MACEs.The predictive performance of SI was assessed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results The incidence of in-hospital MACEs in AMI patients was 14.1%.The results of the independent samples t-test showed that the SI level in MACEs group was significantly lower than that in non-MACEs group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001).The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that new-onset atrial fibrillation,Killip class 2-4,SI,and TG were independent risk factors for in-hospital adverse events after emergency PCI.The ROC curve results showed that the predictive value of SI(AUC=0.741,95%CI 0.666-0.816)using the SCr/Cys C ratio was superior to that of single Cys C(AUC=0.658,95%CI 0.570-0.746)for predicting post-PCI MACEs,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05),and the optimal cutoff value for SI was 78.14.After stratifying SI based on the cutoff value,the results of the independent samples t-test showed that compared to the higher SI group,the lower SI group had a higher occurrence of specific adverse events such as heart failure(P<0.001),malignant arrhythmias(P=0.009),and strokes(P=0.003),with statistically significant differences.Conclusions The results highlight SI as an independent risk factor for MACEs during hospitalization after emergency PCI in AMI patients.Furthermore,SI has proven to be an effective prognostic index for patient outcomes.
