    Abstract In this study, a new red sorghum variety (Ji Liang No. 1) was investigated for its triacylglycerol (TAG) and fatty acid profiles, carotenoid and tocopherol compositions, total phenolic, total flavonoid and phenolic acid contents, and antioxidant and anti‐inflammatory properties. A total of 17 TAGs were identified in the red sorghum oil. Linoleic and oleic acids were the primary fatty acids, contributing more than 80% of the total fatty acids. β‐Carotene was the primary carotenoid at a level of 26.14 μg/g. α‐, γ‐, and δ‐tocopherols were at levels of 0.19, 4.08, and 0.10 μg/g, respectively. Moreover, acetone–water (60:40, v/v) extract of the red sorghum exhibited the greatest total phenolic content of 2.77 mg GAE/g and total flavonoid content of 5.44 mg RE/g. The extract had scavenging capacities against DPPH, ABTS+, and peroxyl radicals and suppressed LPS stimulated IL‐1β, IL‐6, and COX‐2 mRNA expressions in a dose‐dependent manner. Ferulic, p‐coumaric, isoferulic, and p‐hydroxybenzoic acids were found in the red sorghum, with ferulic acid as the predominant phenolic acid and mostly in an insoluble bound form. These data indicated a potential utilization of the red sorghum in health‐promoting functional food or supplemental products.

    Abstract Smart education is a combination of AI and education, and its benefits are delayed. Existing research lacks an understanding of smart education continuance intention in the context of this delayed benefit. Thus, this study aimed to examine users' continuance intention in a delayed benefit context by integrating sensory stimulus, the extended UTAUT, and flow theory. The study focused on a mobile-based smart education (MBSE) system (Liulishuo) and collected data on 494 MBSE users. The PLS-SEM analysis suggested that the model is largely supported. Identifying MBSE's technical attributes as sensory stimuli, the extended UTAUT as primary information processing, flow as secondary information processing, and continuance intention as a decision, this study verifies the relationships between various constructs and their influence on MBSE continuance intention. The results also indicate that a user's flow state plays a crucial role in strengthening continuance intention and realizing the delayed benefits of smart education. Thus, this study provides a deeper understanding of continuous usage mechanisms as they relate to smart education.

    Abstract Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is the most common cyanotic congenital cardiac defect. The survival rate after primary complete repair is high (98-100%); however, pulmonary artery stenosis (PAS) is not uncommon after TOF repair, and severe PAS aggravates pulmonary regurgitation, resulting in right ventricle dilation, ventricular arrhythmia, and possibly death. PAS in TOF can be congenital due to hypoplasia or coarctation or can be acquired secondary to a surgical procedure. The latter may be caused by an exogenous conduit implant, compression from the adjacent enlarged ascending aorta, or outflow tract dilation after transannular patch repair. PAS can also be caused by the pulmonary artery plasty strategy itself. Here, the intrinsic mechanisms underlying PAS and pulmonary artery plasty techniques and strategies are reviewed to provide guidance for surgeons.

    Abstract BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to identify feature autophagy-related genes (ARGs) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), evaluate their diagnostic value, and further explore DNA methylation and expression levels in the pathogenesis of SLE. MATERIAL AND METHODS WGCNA was used to construct network and selected hub genes based on gene expression dataset GSE81622. ARGS were overlapped with hub genes, and feature ARGs were identified. A diagnostic model was established by these feature ARGs using LASSO. GSE96879 was used to analyze the methylation levels of feature ARGs. The expression and methylation levels of feature ARGs were verified using RT-PCR and methylation-specific PCR. RESULTS We found that 55 hub genes were highly connected to the red module of WGCNA, and ARGs were extracted from the Human Autophagy Database and the GO_AUTOPHAGY gene set. Overlapping of 55 hub gene with ARGs resulted in 18 feature ARGs. S100A8, MyD88, and NCR3 from the 18 feature ARGs showed higher good diagnostic value for SLE. Five differentially methylated positions locating to S100A8, MyD88, and NCR3 genes were identified from GSE96879. After validation tests, RT-PCR showed that gene expressions of MyD88 and S100A8 were increased in the PBMCs samples of SLE patients compared with healthy controls, whereas NCR3 was the opposite. MSP found that cg24898863 (S100A8) was hypomethylated, while cg27490128 (NCR3) was hypermethylated in the SLE group, and S100A8 and NCR3 methylation were positively correlated with their expressions. CONCLUSIONS Our present study identified the potential roles of feature ARGs in SLE diagnosis, and shows correlation among DNA methylation and gene expressions of these feature ARGs in SLE.

    Abstract Background: Myocardial infarction is a high-risk condition prevalent among the elderly population, often leading to adverse clinical manifestations such as reduced cardiopulmonary function, anxiety, and depression post-surgery. Consequently, cardiac rehabilitation holds immense importance in mitigating these complications.
    Aim: To evaluate the effect of individualized cardiac rehabilitation on blood pressure variability (BPV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) in elderly patients with myocardial infarction.
    Methods: A cohort of 74 elderly patients diagnosed with myocardial infarction and admitted to our hospital between January 2021 and January 2022 were subjected to random selection. Subsequently, all patients were divided into two groups, namely the research group (
    Results: Of 24 h diastolic BPV, 24 h systolic BPV, carbon dioxide ventilation equivalent slope of the research group were lower than those of the control group at T1 and T2, BRS, peak heart rate and systolic blood pressure product, 1 min heart rate recovery were higher than those of the control group, and the incidence of adverse events in the research group was lower than that of the control group, the difference was statistically significant (
    Conclusion: In this study, we found that after individualized cardiac rehabilitation in elderly patients with myocardial infarction, BPV and BRS can be effectively improved, cardiac function is significantly enhanced, and a better prognosis is obtained.

    Abstract Fine-mapping in genome-wide association studies attempts to identify causal SNPs from a set of candidate SNPs in a local genomic region of interest and is commonly performed in one genetic ancestry at a time. Here, we present multi-ancestry sum of the single effects model (MESuSiE), a probabilistic multi-ancestry fine-mapping method, to improve the accuracy and resolution of fine-mapping by leveraging association information across ancestries. MESuSiE uses summary statistics as input, accounts for the diverse linkage disequilibrium pattern observed in different ancestries, explicitly models both shared and ancestry-specific causal SNPs, and relies on a variational inference algorithm for scalable computation. We evaluated the performance of MESuSiE through comprehensive simulations and multi-ancestry fine-mapping of four lipid traits with both European and African samples. In the real data, MESuSiE improves fine-mapping resolution by 19.0% to 72.0% compared to existing approaches, is an order of magnitude faster, and captures and categorizes shared and ancestry-specific causal signals with enhanced functional enrichment.

    Abstract Purpose of review: Neurodegenerative diseases are still challenging clinical issues, with no curative interventions available and early, accurate diagnosis remaining difficult. Finding solutions to them is of great importance. In this review, we discuss possible exosomal diagnostic biomarkers and explore current explorations in exosome-targeted therapy for some common neurodegenerative diseases, offering insights into the clinical transformation of exosomes in this field.
    Recent findings: The burgeoning research on exosomes has shed light on their potential applications in disease diagnosis and treatment. As a type of extracellular vesicles, exosomes are capable of crossing the blood - brain barrier and exist in various body fluids, whose components can reflect pathophysiological changes in the brain. In addition, they can deliver specific drugs to brain tissue, and even possess certain therapeutic effects themselves. And the recent advancements in engineering modification technology have further enabled exosomes to selectively target specific sites, facilitating the possibility of targeted therapy for neurodegenerative diseases. The unique properties of exosomes give them great potential in the diagnosis and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, and provide novel ideas for dealing with such diseases.
