Objective: To investigate allelic and haplotypic polymorphisms of human leukocyte antigen(HLA) genes at A, B and DRB1 loci in Yantai and Weihai Han population and analyze the genetic relationship between Yantai, Weihai Han population and other populations.
Methods: A total of 4062 unrelated Han ethnic individual from Yantai and Weihai regions were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific olignucleotide probe(PCR-SSOP) for HLA-A, B and DRB1 loci. Allelic and haplotypic frequencies were estimated by maximum likelihood estimation method using Arlequin 3.5 software. Genetic distances were computed, and phylogenetic tree was constructed using Mega5.0 software.
Results: Respectively 18, 33 and 13 alleles were observed at HLA-A, B and DRB1 loci. The most frequent alleles were HLA-A*02(0.2935), HLA-B*15(0.1485) and HLA-DRB1*15(0.1621). And the most common three loci haplotype was A*30-B*13-DRB1*07(0.0649). A*33-B*58, A*66-DRB1*13 and B*08-DRB1*03 showed the strongest linkage disequilibrium. Yantai and Weihai Han population has the shortest genetic distance with Jilin Han population (0.0034).
Conclusion: The HLA-A, B and DRB1 loci are highly polymorphic in Han population from Yantai and Weihai, and this population has closest relationship with Han population from Jilin province.

Genetic dissection of foxtail millet bristles using combined QTL mapping and RNA-seq.
Theor Appl Genet

College of Agriculture, State Key Laboratory of Crop Stress Biology in Arid Areas, Northwest A&F University, Yangling, 712100, China.
QTL mapping of two RIL populations in multiple environments revealed a consistent QTL for bristle length, and combined with RNA-seq, a potential candidate gene influencing bristle length was identified. Foxtail millet bristles play a vital role in increasing yields and preventing bird damage. However, there is currently limited research on the molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying foxtail millet bristle formation, which constrains the genetic improvement and breeding of new foxtail millet varieties.

Aims: Limited studies have been conducted on juvenile conjunctival nevus (JCN) in Asian populations. This study aims to investigate the clinical and pathologic characteristics of JCN cases among the Han ethnicity in northwest China, providing insights for pathologists and ophthalmologists in diagnosing this condition.
Methods: A subset of conjunctival nevi in children and adolescents, characterized by a confluent growth pattern and lack of maturation, was identified and defined as JCN.
Spirometric pattern and cardiovascular risk: a prospective study of 0.3 million Chinese never-smokers.

Department of Epidemiology & Biostatistics, School of Public Health, Peking University, Beijing 100191, China.
Background: Existing studies have not provided robust evidence about the CVD risk of non-smoking patients with restrictive spirometric pattern (RSP) or airflow obstruction (AFO), and how the risk is modified by body shape. We aimed to bridge the gap.
Methods: We used never-smokers' data from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) and performed Cox models by sex (278,953 females and 50,845 males).
Comparison of autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation, matched sibling donor hematopoietic cell transplantation, and chemotherapy in patients with favorable- and intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia.

Introduction: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and chemotherapy are considered potentially curative options for post-remission therapy in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the comparative effectiveness of these approaches in favorable- and intermediate-risk AML remains unclear and requires further investigation.
Methods: In this retrospective study, 111 patients diagnosed with de novo favorable- and intermediate-risk AML, categorized according to the ELN 2022 guidelines, were investigated to compare outcomes following autologous HSCT (auto-HSCT), matched sibling donor HSCT (MSD-HSCT), and chemotherapy.
A positive relationship between weight-adjusted waist index and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a study on US adolescents.

Department of Infectious Diseases, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, China.
Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver condition in children, underscoring the urgent need for non-invasive markers for early detection in this population.
Methods: We utilized survey data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017-2020 regarding liver ultrasound transient elastography (LUTE) for the diagnosis of NAFLD (dependent variable), and used multiple logistic regression models to explore the association between weight-adjusted waist circumference index (WWI) and the prevalence of NAFLD in US adolescents. Smoothing curves and threshold effect analyses were used to assess the non-linear association between the independent variables and the dependent variable.
