Aim To investigate the mechanism of in-testinal mucosal barrier protective effect of Qingjie Huagong decoction(QJHGD)on rats with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods The SAP rat model was constructed,and the sham-operation group,the model group,the group administered with different dosages of QJHGD,and the positive control group were set up respectively.HE staining was used to observe the histopathological changes.ELISA was employed to detect the serum levels of diamine oxidase(DAO)and D-lactic acid(D-LA)in rats.Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to observe the mitochondria of ileal tissues.qRT-PCR and Western blot were applied to detect the mRNA and protein expression of PGAM5,Drp1,PINK1,Parkin,LC3B in ileal tissues of rats.Results Compared with the sham-operated group,the pancreas and ileum tissues of rats in the model group showed obvious pathological changes,with abnormal mitochondrial structure and reduced number of autoph-agic vesicles in the ileum tissues.The levels of DAO and D-LA in serum increased(P＜0.01),and the mRNA and protein expression of PGAM 5,Drp 1,PINK1,Parkin,and LC3B in the ileum tissues de-creased significantly.Compared with the model group,pancreatic and ileal pathology were improved,mito-chondrial damage in the ileum was reduced,and the number of autophagic vesicles increased in the QJHGD group.The serum levels of DAO and D-LA were re-duced,and the expression of PGAM5,Drp1,PINK1,Parkin,and LC3B mRNA and protein in the ileal tis-sues increased significantly.Conclusions QJHGD may exert a protective effect on the SAP intestinal mu-cosal barrier by regulating the PGAM5/Drp1/PINK1/Parkin axis in order to elevate the level of mitochondri-al autophagy in the intestinal epithelial cells,thereby improving the level of repair of the intestinal epithelial cells.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of micro flow imaging (MFI) supported by Image Pro Plus (IPP) software for BI-RADS classification of breast nodules and the correlation between its parameters and Ki-67 expression level.Methods:A total of 205 cases of breast solid nodules with ultrasound BI-RADS classification of 4 categories were enrolled in this study. BI-RADS classification, CDFI score, MFI score, CDFI-IPP score and MFI-IPP score by IPP software were performed for each nodule. Ki-67 immunohistochemical staining of invasive ductal carcinoma was performed to analyze the correlation between MFI-IPP-VI and Ki-67 expression levels.Results:The combined BI-RADS classification for diagnosis of malignant nodules had the largest area under the ROC curve, which was significantly higher than that of BI-RADS, MFI-IPP-VI, MFI score, CDFI-IPP-VI, and CDFI score (all P<0.05). The combined BI-RADS classification had the best diagnostic efficacy for the diagnosis of malignant nodules with a sensitivity of 96.4%, specificity of 65.6% and accuracy of 82.4%. In addition, the agreement between experienced and inexperienced sonographers applying MFI-IPP-VI was higher than MFI (Kappa=0.780 vs. Kappa=0.743). The mean value of Ki-67 in invasive ductal carcinoma was 21.93%±16.37%, and Spearman's correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between MFI-IPP-VI and Ki-67 expression level ( r=0.815, P<0.05). Conclusions:MFI-IPP can assist sonographers to classify breast nodules by BI-RADS, providing an effective basis for puncture biopsy. MFI-IPP-VI offers the possibility of noninvasively predicting the expression level of Ki-67 in invasive ductal carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the role of Sneathia sanguinegens(S.sanguinegens)in the development of unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion(URSA).Methods A case-control study was conducted to analyze the vaginal flora characteristics of 65 patients with URSA and 18 healthy controls through 16S rRNA gene sequencing.Toxicity profile of S.sanguinegens on human cervical cancer cells(ME-180),human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVEC)and human placental choriocarcinoma cells(JEG-3)was analyzed at the cellular level to assess the mechanism of it in adverse pregnancy outcomes.And S.sanguinegens was used to infect C57BL/6J mice to explore the toxic effect on living organisms.Results The relative abundance of Sneathia was increased in patients with URSA compared with healthy controls.It was positively correlated with the number of miscarriages,and was attributed to S.sanguinegens.We also found that S.sanguinegens damaged ME-180,JEG-3 and HUVEC cells.The degree of cellular damage was related to the level of S.sanguinegens added.Intravenous infection with S.sanguinegens caused inflammatory damage in several organs and extramedullary hematopoiesis in the spleen.Conclusion S.sanguinegens is closely related to URSA and should be emphasized in patients with high vaginal bacterial load.

Aim To explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Qingjie Huagong decoction in modulating PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway in inflammatory response of acute pancreatitis(AP)mice.Methods Twenty-four mice were randomly divided into Blank group,Model group,Ustekin group,and Qingjie Hua-gong decoction group,with six mice in each group.The AP model was prepared by using rain frogin.Serum α-AMS,PNLP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α lev-els were detected by ELISA;the pancreatic pathology was detected by HE staining;the expressions of PI3K,AKT,and NF-κB-related proteins and mRNAs were de-tected by immunohistochemistry,Western blot,and RT-qPCR.Results Compared with the blank group,the model group showed obvious pathological damage to the pancreas,with significantly higher serum α-AMS,PN-LP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α levels(P＜0.01),and significantly higher levels of PI3K,AKT,and NF-κB-related proteins and mRNA expression(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,both the Qingjie Huagong decoction group and the ustekin group improved the histopathological changes in the pancreas of AP mice,decreased the serum α-AMS,PNLP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α levels,and down-reg-ulated the expression levels of pancreatic PI3K,AKT,NF-κB-related proteins and mRNA(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Qingjie Huagong decoction may inhibit the inflammatory response and protect pancreat-ic tissues by regulating the expression of PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective To study the regulatory effect of Qufeng Xiaodian Formula on serum differential metabolites of allergic purpura,and provide scientific basis for the diagnosis and treatment of allergic purpura in traditional Chinese medicine.Methods Sixty rats were randomly divided into a blank control group(referred to as the blank group),a model group,a compound glycyrrhizin group,a low-dose Qu Feng Xiao Dian Fang group,a medium dose Qu Feng Xiao Dian Fang group,and a high-dose Qu Feng Xiao Dian Fang group according to a random number table method,with 10 rats in each group.The model group was constructed by combining dried ginger,pepper,and long pepper with ovalbumin to create an allergic purpura rat model.After successful modeling,each treatment group was intervened with corresponding drugs for 4 weeks.After 4 weeks,serum was collected and non targeted metabolomics screening of serum differential metabolites was performed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometer(UPLC-QTOF/MS).Subsequently,data extraction and multivariate statistical analysis will be conducted to identify potential metabolic pathways.Results Compared with the control group,there were 91 possible differential metabolites in the serum of the model group rats,corresponding to 20 metabolic pathways;Compared with the model group,there were a total of 43 possible differential metabolites in the serum of rats in the wind dispelling and disease eliminating group,corresponding to 15 metabolic pathways.Among them,there are a total of 12 metabolic pathways.Inflammatory metabolites such as arachidonic acid and ceramide can damage vascular endothelium.Ten biomarkers,including arachidonic acid and ceramide,were significantly abnormal in the serum of the model group rats compared to the normal group.The Qufeng Xiaodian formula can significantly reverse these metabolites and significantly enrich them in arachidonic acid metabolism and sphingolipid metabolism pathways.Conclusion Qufeng Xiaodian Formula has a certain regulatory effect on metabolites such as arachidonic acid and ceramide that affect vascular endothelial injury.

Objective To systematically evaluate the effect of inspiratory muscle training(IMT)on weaning outcomes in patients with weaning failure.Methods Literatures in Chinese and English were retrieved from databases such as PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,Embase,CNKI,VIP,Wanfang data and CBM for researches on the effect of IMT in mechanical ventila-tion weaning failure,from the inception of the databases to October 22,2024.The methodological quality of the researches was evaluated with PEDro scale,and data were extracted for a systematic review.Results Nine randomized controlled trials were included,published between 2011 and 2023,from Brazil,China,the United States,Iran and Australia,with a total of 499 patients.The scores of the PEDro scale ranged five to eight.The population included patients with prolonged weaning,difficult weaning and tracheostomy.The IMT methods included threshold load training and tapered flow resistance training.The training intensity was 30%to 80%of maximal inspiratory pressure(MIP),and some researches did not set the training intensity based on MIP.The pro-gression of intensity varied widely across researches.The intervention frequency ranged from five to 30 breaths per set,with at least one minute rest between sets,two to six sets per session,one to two sessions per day,and five to seven days per week.The duration of the intervention ranged from successful weaning,one week after weaning,extubation,or four days to eight weeks.Regarding the efficacy of the intervention,IMT was not benefi-cial for the duration of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit(ICU)length of stay on weaning failure pa-tients.However,the effect of IMT on weaning successful rates,duration of weaning,MIP and mortality was in-consistent.Conclusion IMT can not improve the duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay for weaning failure pa-tients,and there is still debate regarding its effect on successful rate of weaning,duration of weaning,MIP and mortality.

Objective:The characteristics of D-dimer（D-D），liver enzymes and clinical presentation in pediatric Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia（MPP）complicated by plastic bronchitis（PB）were analyzed,and the predictive value of abnormal D-D and liver enzymes in MPP complicated by PB was discussed.Methods:Patients diagnosed with MPP who underwent bronchoscopy at the Pediatric Department of Shenzhen Baoan Women's and Children's Hospital in Shenzhen between March 2023 and March 2024 were enrolled. The participants were categorized into the PB group and the non-PB group based on the presence or absence of PB complications.The differences in clinical characteristics，treatment characteristics，laboratory results and imaging results between the two groups were compared.The nomogram prediction model of MPP combined with PB was established,and its effectiveness was evaluated.Results:A total of 225 pediatric patients were enrolled,including 52 cases in the PB group and 173 cases in the non-PB group. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in baseline characteristics such as age, gender, and body weight ( P>0.05).The PB group had a higher proportion of respiratory distress, respiratory support, PICU admission, decreased of SpO 2, viral infection and bacterial infection. And neutrophil ratio, C-reactive protein,procalcitonin, coagulation index and liver enzyme index were significantly higher than those in non-PB group.The analysis of binary Logistic analysis showed that increased aspartic transaminase, increased D-D,and the need of respiratory support were independent risk factors for MPP combined with PB.The nomogram predictive model based on binary Logistic analysis showed that the area under curve for predicting MPP combined with PB was 0.800（95% CI 0.724-0.875， P<0.001）.The calibrate curve showed that the predicted probability of the model fit well with actual probability. Conclusion:Children with MPP complicated by PB have higher levels of aspartic transaminase and D-D,along with an increased proportion requiring repiratory support.The prediction model based on these indicators shows good clinical application value.
