Abstract:
Caloric restriction (CR) and intermittent fasting (IF) are two dietary intervention strategies that have garnered increasing attention for their potential role in regulating inflammation and metabolic disorders. With the widespread adoption of high-calorie diets and sedentary lifestyles, the incidence of metabolic diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases has risen significantly, posing major public health challenges. This review explores how CR and IF impact inflammation reduction and metabolic health improvement through mechanisms such as metabolic reprogramming, autophagy activation, and inhibition of inflammatory pathways. Notably, both strategies have shown promising intervention effects in inflammatory diseases like multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus erythematosus. Additionally, CR and IF demonstrate positive effects in the metabolic regulation of obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Despite their clinical potential, long-term adherence and safety remain key challenges for widespread implementation. Future research should focus on personalized interventions and the integration of multiple therapeutic approaches to further validate the clinical value of CR and IF. In summary, CR and IF offer novel, non-pharmacological strategies for managing chronic diseases, presenting significant potential for future clinical application.

Abstract:
      Objective      To study the therapeutic effect and mechanism of geraniin on experimental osteoporotic fracture (OPF) in rabbits.      Methods      Rabbits were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, different doses of geraniin groups ( 20, 10, 5 mg/kg ) and simvastatin group ( 5 mg/kg ). OPF model of rabbits was constructed by ovariectomy and bone defect in the middle radius. The changes of bone mineral density in rabbits were detected by bone densitometer. X-ray imaging and Micro CT were used to detect the healing of osteoporotic fractures in rabbits. Bone biomechanical changes were detected by bone strength instrument. The pathological changes of bone tissue were detected by HE staining. Automatic biochemical analyzer and Elisa were used to detect the changes of serum bone turnover biochemical markers and calcium salt and phosphorus salt content in ash composition.      Results      Geraniin significantly increased the bone mineral density of femur, spine and the whole body of OPF rabbits ( P < 0.01 ), improved the patency of bone marrow cavity and the continuity of bone cortex, increased the bone volume / total volume of OPF rabbits, reduced the bone surface area / bone volume, improved the integrity of trabecular structure, increased the number of trabecular bone and the thickness of trabecular bone, and reduced the spacing of trabecular bone. In addition, geraniin improved biomechanical indexes such as maximum load, structural stiffness and maximum displacement of OPF rabbits, and improved bone microstructure. In addition, geraniin significantly increased the levels of calcium ( Ca2+ ) and phosphorus ( P ) in serum of OPF rabbits, decreased the levels of alkaline phosphatase ( ALP ), tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase ( TRACP ), type I collagen cross-linked carboxyl terminal peptide ( CTX-1 ) and urinary deoxypyridinoline ( DPD ) ( P < 0.01 ), and increased the contents of calcium and phosphorus in bone ash ( P < 0.01 ).      Conclusion      Geraniin can effectively promote the healing of osteoporotic fractures and improve bone microstructure and biomechanical properties. The mechanism may be related to the increase of bone mineral content and the regulation of bone metabolism.

Abstract:
  Objective  To explore the role and mechanism of crocin in pituitary adenoma (PA) through clinical samples and related molecular biology experiments of HP75 cells.   Methods  From June 2022 to May 2023, 16 PA samples were collected from the Second Department of Neurology and Otolaryngology skull base surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University. Three normal control samples were from the human anatomy of the Forensic College of Kunming Medical University. The expression of IRF7 mRNA in clinical samples was detected, and the proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of HP75 cells were detected by knocking down the expression of IRF7; the expression of NF-κB was regulated by IRF7 in HP75 cells, and crocin regulated the growth of PA cells and its regulatory effect on IRF7/NF-κB signaling pathway.   Results  RT-qPCR and immunohisto-chemistry showed that compared with the normal control group, the expression of IRF7 mRNA in PA was significantly increased (P < 0.001); the expression of IRF7 protein in si-IRF7 group was significantly decreased (P < 0.001); CCK-8, Transwell and flow cytometry results showed that compared with the control group, knockdown of IRF7 significantly decreased the cell viability of HP75 cells (P < 0.001), inhibited the migration and invasion (P < 0.001), and promoted the apoptosis of HP75 cells (P < 0.001). In addition, knockdown of IRF7 could inhibit the expression of p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 (P < 0.001) and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 (P < 0.001). Overexpression of IRF7 partially reversed the effect of crocin (P < 0.001) and restored the expression of p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 (P < 0.01). Finally, the biological behavior of HP75 cells showed that compared with crocin group, overexpression of IRF7 could improve the cell viability of HP75 cells, promote their migration and invasion, and inhibit cell apoptosis (P < 0.001).   Conclusion  Crocin treatment can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of PA cells, promote cell apoptosis, and alleviate the development of PA. In the mechanism, IRF7 is significantly overexpressed in PA, and knockdown of IRF7 can inhibit the malignant growth of PA. Crocin can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of PA cells, and promote apoptosis by inhibiting IRF7/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate the expression of spalt like transcription factor 4 (Sall4) in pancreatic cancer tissues and its clinical significance, as well as the impact of inhibiting its gene expression on the migration and invasion of pancreatic cancer cells.   Methods  This study involved 64 patients with pancreatic cancer treated at the 2nd Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2014 to January 2018. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of Sall4 protein in adjacent non-tumor tissues and pancreatic cancer tissues, respectively. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of Sall4 in the cancerous and adjacent non-tumor tissues, respectively. The relationship between the clinicopathological data of these patients and the expression of Sall4 protein was also analyzed. The cells of high Sall4 expression were screened from the human pancreatic cancer cell lines PANC-1, Capan-1, SW 1990, HPAC, and HPAF-II. The pancreatic cancer cells of high Sall4 expression were divided into three groups: control group, shRNA-1 group, and shRNA-2 group. The shRNA-1 and shRNA-2 groups were transfected with the corresponding Sall4 lentiviral inhibitory gene sequences, while the control group was transfected with the reagent without an interference sequence. Western blotting was used to measure the expression of Sall4, and cells with significantly reduced expression were selected for subsequent experiments. The transfected cells were then assessed for their invasive and migratory abilities.   Results  Among the 64 samples of pancreatic cancer tissues, 28 cases (43.8%) were positive for Sall4 expression, a rate significantly higher than 5 cases (7.8%) in adjacent non-tumor tissues. Furthermore, 16 cases exhibited strong positivity, while 12 cases showed moderate or weak positivity. Recurrence occurred in 11 pancreatic cancer patients. The difference was statistically significant. The expression of Sall4 was correlated with tumor differentiation, staging, and lymph node metastasis, suggesting that Sall4 positivity might be an independent risk factor affecting the prognosis of pancreatic cancer. Among the five cell lines, PANC-1 had the highest relative expression of Sall4 and was selected for further experiments. The shRNA-1 and shRNA-2 groups successfully suppressed the expression of Sall4, with the shRNA-1 group showing a more pronounced effect. Compared to the control group, the invasive and migratory abilities of SW480 cells were significantly reduced in the shRNA-1 group (P < 0.05).   Conclusion   Sall4 is highly expressed in pancreatic cancer tissues, and higher expression is associated with a greater likelihood of postoperative recurrence. Inhibiting the expression of Sall4 can significantly suppress the invasion and migration abilities of human pancreatic cancer cells.

Abstract:
  Objective  To explore the influence of different factors on the safe screw placement of the ulnar coronoid process based on the DR imaging measurement of the ulnar coronoid process.   Methods  During the period from July 2020 to November 2021, 102 normal adult elbow joint DR films were randomly included from Yunnan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Standard elbow joint DR films were selected as the measurement objects, with the apex of the coronoid process as the vertex and two straight lines parallel to the elbow joint space along both sides of the coronoid process. The length of the line segment from the apex of the coronoid process to the intersection of the radius and ulnar cortex of the ulna was the safe distance to place the nail on the coronal surface of the ulna coronoid process; The standard lateral DR film of the elbow joint was selected as the measurement image, and the apex of the coronoid process was used as a point to draw out two safety lines intersecting with the ulnar cortex at the proximal and distal ends. The length of the safety lines at the proximal and distal ends of the coronoid process was the safe nail placement distance on the sagittal plane of the ulnar coronoid process. The differences in safe nail placement distance between different genders, left and right sides, were compared and the correlation between safe nail placement distances on different cross-sections was analyzed.   Results  There was a statistically significant difference in the safe placement distance of the ulnar coronoid process between males and females (P < 0.05); On the coronal plane, there was a correlation between the safe nail placement distance on the radial and ulnar sides in males; On the sagittal plane (P < 0.05), there was a correlation between the safe placement distance of the ulnar coronoid process in women’ s proximal and distal ends (P < 0.05).   Conclusion  Studying the safe screw placement distance of the ulnar coronoid process is beneficial to guide the clinical placement of screws for coronoid process fractures, the design of new steel plates, and the correction of deformity.

Abstract:
  Objective  To identify potential biomarkers associated with LN, with the goal of improving early diagnosis, disease monitoring, and the development of more precise treatment strategies.   Methods  Gene expression data were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database for datasets GSE22221, GSE112943, GSE99967, and GSE32591. Intersecting genes were obtained through the application of weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) and linear models for microarray data (LIMMA). Subsequently, biological function and pathway analyses were conducted on these intersecting genes using Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). Next, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis was performed, and hub genes highly associated with LN were identified using the CytoHubba algorithm, support vector machine (SVM), and random forest (RF) methods. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed, and three potential biomarkers were validated using the GSE72798 dataset.   Results  The green-yellow module (P = 7.4e−40) and the cyan module (P = 1.5e−14) were identified through WGCNA analysis. A total of 193 differentially expressed genes were identified using LIMMA, with 113 intersecting genes related to LN being identified. GO and KEGG analyses indicated that these genes were mainly enriched in viral or bacterial defense, type I interferon signaling pathway, neutrophil-mediated immunity, and Toll-like receptor signaling. MX1, IFI44, and STAT1 were identified as hub genes using CytoHubba, SVM, and RF methods, with AUC values of 0.874, 0.879, and 0.833, respectively. Validation using the GSE72798 dataset demonstrated that the expression of MX1, IFI44, and STAT1 was significantly higher in LN patients compared to healthy individuals (P < 0.001 for all).   Conclusion  MX1, IFI44, and STAT1 play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of LN and may serve as important biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets for LN.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate the correlation between biofilm gene, efflux pump gene, biofilm forming ability and drug resistance of Acinetobacter baumarmii (AB) isolated from the patients of clinical infectious diseases.   Methods  A total of 119 non-repeating Acinetobacter baumannii isolates (74 MDR-AB strains and 45 non-multi-drug resistant strains) were collected. The effector pump genes (adeB, adeJ, adeG, adeS and adeR) and biofilm-related genes (bap, ompA, csuA, csuB, csuC, csuD, csuE, abaI, bfmR, bfmS) were detected by PCR. Bacterial biofilm was constructed in vitro with 24-well cell culture plates, and the formation of biofilm was qualitatively observed by crystal violet staining.   Results  Acinetobacter baumannii was resistant to most of the commonly used antibiotics and sensitive to tigacycline, polymyxin B and minocycline. The overall detection rate of biofilm-related genes was about 80%, and the detection rates of bap, csuB, csuC and csuD genes in multi-drug resistant bacteria were significantly higher than those in non-multi-drug resistant bacteria (P < 0.05). The detection rate of active effector pump genes was less than 70%, and the detection rate of adeB, adeJ, adeS and adeR genes in multidrug-resistant bacteria was significantly higher than that in non-multidrug-resistant bacteria (P < 0.05). The adeG carrying rate was opposite. Three multidrug-resistant strains and five non-multidrug-resistant strains did not carry the above efflux pump related genes, and no abeM gene was detected in all strains. The formation of biofilm was observed in 95.80% of strains.   Conclusion  Acinetobacter baumannii in hospital is mostly multidrug-resistant strains, most of which have strong biofilm forming ability. Multidrug-resistant bacteria have higher biofilm gene and effluent-pump gene carrying rate, which may be involved in the regulation and formation of multidrug resistance.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate the relationship between peripheral blood immunoglobulin, erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), homocysteine (Hcy) and the severity of central nervous system vasculitis (CNSV) in children, as well as its impact on prognosis.   Methods  A total of 103 children with CNSV from February 2018 to February 2023 were selected as the study group, and 103 healthy children as the control group. The peripheral blood levels of immunoglobulin A (IgA), immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin M (IgM), ESR and Hcy were compared between the 2 groups to evaluate the relationship between each index and the degree of CNSV disease [Birmingham vasculitis disease activity score (BVAS)] and its predictive value for prognosis.   Results  The levels of peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy in the study group were higher than those in the control group of healthy children (P < 0.05); the BVAS scores and the levels of peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy in children with active disease were higher than those in children with inactive disease (P < 0.05); the levels of peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy were positively correlated with the BVAS scores in children with CNSV (P < 0.05); two cases were lost to follow-up after 6 months. Among the children with CNSV, 76 had good prognosis and 25 poor prognosis. The levels of peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy in children with poor prognosis were higher than those in children with good prognosis (P < 0.05); before and after correcting for other factors, peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy were all independent factors affecting the prognosis of children with CNSV (P < 0.05); the area under curve (AUC) of peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy for predicting the prognosis of children with CNSV was 0.747, 0.808, 0.841, 0.839, and 0.746, respectively, with optimal cutoff values of 350.58 mg/dL, 1513.06 mg/dL, 124.84 mg/dL, 51.22 mm/h, and 13.66 μmol/L, respectively; the AUC of peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy for jointly predicting the prognosis of children with CNSV was 0.943 (95%CI 0.878-0.979), with a sensitivity of 92.00% and a specificity of 93.42%, which was superior to individual prediction of each indicator.   Conclusion  Peripheral blood IgA, IgG, IgM, ESR and Hcy are positively correlated with the severity of CNSV. Abnormally high expression increases the risk of poor prognosis, and the combined predictive value is reliable.

  Objective   To explore the clinical application of salpingectomy with preserving salpingum mesothelium under single-port laparoscopy and its influence on ovarian reserve function and assisted pregnancy outcome.   Methods   From January 2019 to January 2022, 80 cases of salpingectomy in Shuangyashan Double Mine Hospital were selected and randomly divided into control group (n = 40) and observation group (n = 40) . The control group was treated with multi-hole laparoscopic salpingectomy with salpingum mesothelium preserved, while the observation group treated with single-hole laparoscopic salpingectomy with salpingum mesothelium preserved. The operation conditions (operation time, intraoperative blood loss, exhaust time, etc.), anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) before and one month after operation, ovarian function (basal sinus follicle count), postoperative complications, assisted pregnancy outcome and cosmetic effect were analyzed.   Results   The exhaust time and postoperative hospitalization time in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group, and the operation time was longer than that in the control group (P < 0.05). One month after operation, AMH in both groups decreased, and the number of sinus follicles in observation group A was lower than that in control group. The complication rate was lower than that of the control group (P < 0.05). After a one-year follow-up, there was no significant difference in ovulation rate and pregnancy rate between the two groups (P > 0.05). Follow-up for 3 months showed that the cosmetic effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group(95.00% vs 72.50%) (P < 0.05).   Conclusion   Single-port laparoscopic salpingectomy with salpingum mesothelium preservation is safe, cosmetic and minimally invasive, and has little adverse effect on ovarian reserve function, which is helpful for successful pregnancy assistance and worthy of clinical application and promotion.

Abstract:
    Objective   To study the relationship between lipid metabolism and liver function indexes in prediabetic population, and explore the predictive value of these indexes for prediabetes.    Methods   546 patients with prediabetes who underwent physical examination in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University from April 2020 to August 2021 were selected as case group (PreDM group) and 546 patients with normal glucose tolerance as control group (NGT group). There was no significant difference in baseline data between the two groups after tendency matching score. The levels of lipid metabolism and liver function indicators were compared between the two groups; the correlation between lipid metabolism and liver function indicators in the PreDM group was analyzed; the influencing factors of prediabetes were screened by using binary logistic regression analysis; the predictive effect of lipid metabolism and liver function indicators on prediabetes was judged by using the ROC curve.    Results   Glutamic pyruvic transaminase (ALT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase/glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase ratio (ALT/AST), cholinesterase (CHE), gamma glutamyltransferase (GGT), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol/high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TC/HDL-C) and triglyceride/high density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C) in PreDM group were higher than those in NGT group (all P < 0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that TG/HDL-C in PreDM group had the positive correlation with ALT, ALT/AST, CHE and GGT (r = 0.256, 0.256, 0.293, 0.122, all P < 0.05). Multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis showed that ALT/AST, GGT, TC/HDL-C and TG/HDL-C had the greatest effect on prediabetes (OR = 2.124, 1.027, 1.196, 1.260), and the combination of the four had the highest differential diagnostic value (AUC > 0.70).    Conclusion   There are more abnormal indexes of blood lipid and liver zymogram in prediabetic population, and the combination of ALT/AST, GGT, TC/HDL-C and TG/ HDL-C is more effective in predicting prediabetes.

Abstract:
  Objective  To investigate the current demand for extended nursing services for newborns after discharge.  Methods  A survey was conducted on the demand for extended nursing services after discharge of newborns using the "Survey Form for Demand for Extended Nursing Services after Discharge of Newborns", and the results were analyzed.   Results  62.30% of the data for this survey was provided by the father, possibly due to a Chinese tradition where mothers were confined at home during confinement after their child's discharge, making it inconvenient for them to go out. The educational level of parents was mainly undergraduate or above, with an age of 30.55±5.07 years old, mainly middle-aged and young; The top 5 scores for continuity of care content requirements were: reminder for follow-up visits (4.39±0.08) points, discharge medication guidance (4.35±0.92) points, health assessment (4.29±0.94) points, disease-related knowledge education (4.28±0.95) points, specialized nursing (4.17±1.05) points and basic nursing guidance (4.17±1.04) points;The top four scores of parents' demands for extended nursing channels were: telephone follow-up 2673 (85.45%), discharge education 2529 (80.85%), community two-way referral 2390 (76.41%), and health education network platform 2271 (72.60%) (such as WeChat official account, forum, Tiktok live broadcast); Family members hope that 2340 doctors (74.81%) and 1764 hospital nurses (56.39%) were still the main executors of extended services provided by the hospital; After discharge, if necessary due to the condition, medical staff would come to your doorstep to provide corresponding medical care services. Patients agreed to pay 2759 cases (88.20%) according to the price standard, with the majority agreeing to pay 2189 cases (69.98%) for consultation fees, 2057 cases (65.76%) for material fees and 1997 cases (63.84%) for diagnosis, treatment, and nursing fees.  Conclusion  Providing continuous extended care services during and after the discharge of newborns can reduce their readmission rate, promote physical development, and reduce complications. With the development of medical technology and information technology, parents of newborns have an increasing demand for extended care services, and it is imperative to carry out extended care services.
