Objective To assess the potential role of disulfidptosis-related genes (DRGs) in pan-cancer on prognosis and immunity on the basis of bioinformatics approaches. Methods Pan-cancer RNA-seq data, mutation profiles, clinical information, TMB, MSI, stemness scores, and tumor and immune microenvironment data contained in TCGA and various open-source online databases, and multi-group R-language algorithms were used for comprehensive analysis. The expression levels of DRGs at the cellular level were experimentally validated using qPCR. Results LRPPRC, NCKAP1, NDUFS1, and NUBPL had a better prognosis in renal clear cell carcinoma (P<0.001), whereas SLC7A11, NCKAP1, and SLC3A2 had a worse prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (P<0.001). TME analysis showed that LRPPRC was negatively correlated with immune cells, stromal cells, and estimated scores in all tumor types. TMB analysis revealed the potential research value of DRGs for PD-1/PD-L1 therapy in pan-cancer. Drug sensitivity analysis showed that SLC7A11 (r=0.454), SLC3A2 (r=0.366), and NCKAP1 (r=0.455) were significantly associated with Kahalide F (P<0.01). Experimental validation demonstrated the overall higher expression levels of GYS1 and NCKAP1 than normal cells in lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, esophageal squamous carcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma (P<0.05). Conclusion Pan-cancer analysis of DRGs indicates that DRGs may serve as important biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of renal clear-cell carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of pharmaceutical quality control on the efficiency and outcomes of standardized medication therapy management （MTM） services for patients with coronary heart disease by using Economic， Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes （ECHO） model. METHODS This study collected case data of coronary heart disease patients who received MTM services during January-March 2023 （pre-quality control implementation group， n＝96） and June-August 2023 （post-quality control implementation group， n＝164）. Using propensity score matching analysis， 80 patients were selected from each group. The study subsequently compared the economic， clinical， and humanistic outcome indicators of pharmaceutical services between the two matched groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups after matching （P＞0.05）. Compared with pre-quality control implementation group， the daily treatment cost （16.26 yuan vs. 24.40 yuan， P＜0.001）， cost-effectiveness ratio [23.12 yuan/quality-adjusted life year （QALY） vs. 32.32 yuan/QALY， P＜0.001]， and the incidence of general adverse drug reactions （2.50% vs. 10.00%， P＝0.049） of post-quality control implementation group were decreased significantly； the utility value of the EuroQol Five-Dimensional Questionnaire （0.74± 0.06 vs. 0.71±0.07， P＝0.003）， the reduction in the number of medication related problems （1.0 vs. 0.5， P＜0.001）， the medication adherence score （[ 6.32±0.48） points vs. （6.10±0.37） points， P＝0.001]， and the satisfaction score （[ 92.56±1.52） points vs. （91.95±1.56） points， P＝0.013] all showed significant improvements. Neither group experienced serious adverse drug reactions. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of new adverse reactions between the two groups （1.25% vs. 3.75%， P＝0.310）. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical quality control can improve the quality of pharmaceutical care， and the ECHO model can quantitatively evaluate the effect of MTM services， making pharmaceutical care better priced and more adaptable to social needs， thus being worthy of promotion.

Debates persist regarding the efficacy and safety of azvudine, particularly its real-world outcomes. This study involved patients aged ≥60 years who were admitted to 25 hospitals in mainland China with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection between December 1, 2022, and February 28, 2023. Efficacy outcomes were all-cause mortality during hospitalization, the proportion of patients discharged with recovery, time to nucleic acid-negative conversion (T _NANC), time to symptom improvement (T _SI), and time of hospital stay (T _HS). Safety was also assessed. Among the 5884 participants identified, 1999 received azvudine, and 1999 matched controls were included after exclusion and propensity score matching. Azvudine recipients exhibited lower all-cause mortality compared with controls in the overall population (13.3% vs. 17.1%, RR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.67-0.90; P = 0.001) and in the severe subgroup (25.7% vs. 33.7%; RR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.66-0.88; P < 0.001). A higher proportion of patients discharged with recovery, and a shorter T _NANC were associated with azvudine recipients, especially in the severe subgroup. The incidence of adverse events in azvudine recipients was comparable to that in the control group (2.3% vs. 1.7%, P = 0.170). In conclusion, azvudine showed efficacy and safety in older patients hospitalized with COVID-19 during the SARS-CoV-2 omicron wave in China.

Objective: To investigate the effect of phosphatase and tensin homolog(PTEN) overexpression on autophagy in mouse primary cardiac fibroblasts. Methods: Neonatal mice(1-3 days old) were purchased and subjected to cardiac tissue harvesting. Cardiac fibroblasts were isolated through enzymatic digestion and cultured. After cellular adhesion, rapamycin(Rapa)-treated cardiac fibroblasts were used to establish an autophagy model. Following successful model construction, cells were transfected with eitherPTEN-overexpressing plasmid(PTENoverexpression group) or empty vector(control group), followed by 24-48 h incubation. The molecular expressions of PTEN, autophagy-related proteins [microtubule-associated protein light chain 3(LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ), Beclin1], and fibrotic marker collagen Ⅰ were detected by Western blot and RT-qPCR. Autophagic flux was assessed using mCherry-GFP-LC3 fluorescence staining to evaluate changes in autophagic activity. Transmission electron microscopy(TEM) was employed to observe autophagosome formation in cardiac fibroblasts. Results : In the Rapa-induced cardiac fibroblast autophagy model, compared with the control group, the protein and mRNA levels of PTEN significantly decreased(P<0.05), while the expression of autophagy-related proteins(LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ, Beclin1) and fibrotic marker Collagen Ⅰ was upregulated at both protein and mRNA levels(P<0.05). Additionally, in PTEN-overexpressing cardiac fibroblasts, the expression levels of LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ, Beclin1, and Collagen Ⅰ were markedly reduced compared to the empty vector group(P<0.05). mCherry-GFP-LC3 fluorescence staining demonstrated that autophagic activity was significantly attenuated in thePTENoverexpression group versus the empty vector group(P<0.05). TEM further revealed a decreased number of autophagosomes in PTEN-overexpressing cardiac fibroblasts(P<0.05). Conclusion The overexpression ofPTENsignificantly inhibits autophagy in cardiac fibroblasts, suggesting thatPTENmay be a key gene involved in regulating autophagy in cardiac fibroblasts.

Objective To explore the role of secreted frizzled-related protein 3 (sFRP3), a regulator of the Wnt signaling pathway, in the activation and proliferation of murine cardiac fibroblasts (CFs).Methods Neonatal mice aged 1-3 days were obtained for surgical procedures to collect heart tissues.After digestion, CFs were isola-ted and cultured.Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) stimulation was used to induce activation and prolif-eration in CFs after they adhered to the culture dish.Once the model was confirmed, experimental and control groups were transfected with sFRP3 overexpression plasmids and empty plasmids for 24-48 hours.Expression lev-els of sFRP3, Periostin (POSTN), Type Ⅰ collagen (Collagen Ⅰ), and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PC-NA) were assessed at the molecular level using Western blot and qRT-PCR.Changes in cell proliferation capacity were examined using MTT, CCK-8, and EdU staining methods.Results In the TGF-β1-induced activation and proliferation model of CFs, compared to the control group, the model group exhibited decreased expression of sFRP3 protein and mRNA, while the expression of activation and proliferation-related proteins PCNA, POSTN, and Collagen Ⅰ was upregulated.Furthermore, in CFs overexpressing sFRP3 through plasmid transfection, the protein and mRNA expression of PCNA, POSTN, and Collagen Ⅰ decreased compared to the empty vector group.MTT, CCK-8 , and EdU experiments indicated a significant decrease in the proliferative activity of CFs in the sFRP3 over-expression group compared to the empty vector group.Conclusion Overexpression of sFRP3 markedly inhibits the activation and proliferation of CFs, suggesting that sFRP3 may be a key gene involved in the regulation of CF acti-vation and proliferation.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of the water extract of Morinda officinalis on the expressions of sex hormones and receptors in bisphenol A （BPA）-contaminated mice. METHODS Totally 60 male Kunming mice were randomly divided into control group， model group， and low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups of M. officinalis water extract （20， 40， 60 mg/kg）， with 12 mice in each group. The model group and M. officinalis water extract groups were given BPA intragastrically [50 mg/（kg·d）， once a day， for 4 consecutive weeks] to establish the BPA-contamination model of mice. After modeling， each drug group was gavaged with the corresponding drug solution， once a day， for 4 consecutive weeks. After the last medication， the body weight and testicular weight of the mice in each group were weighed， the histopathological changes in the testis were observed， and the serum sex hormones [luteinizing hormone （LH）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）] contents and the mRNA and protein expressions of LH receptor （LHR） and FSH receptor （FSHR） in the testicular tissues were detected. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the testicular tissues of mice in the model group had structural degeneration， loose connections between spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cells， obvious lacunae and reduced number of spermatogenic cells； the mRNA and protein expressions of LHR and FSHR in testicular tissues were significantly down-regulated （P＜0.01）， but there were no significant changes in their body weights， testicular weights， and serum contents of LH and FSH （P＞0.05）. Compared with the model group， the histopathological changes of testicular tissues of mice in each dose group of M. officinalis water extract were improved to different degrees， and the mRNA and protein expressions of LHR and FSHR in testicular tissues were up-regulated to different degrees （P＜0.05 or P＜ 0.01）， and some indicator levels were similar to those of the control group （P＞0.05）. However， there were no significant changes in their body weights， testicular weights， and serum contents of LH and FSH （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The water extract of M. officinalis has a certain improvement effect on testicular injury in BPA-contaminated mice， which might be related to its increase in the mRNA and protein expressions of LHR and FSHR.

OBJECTIVE To explore the safety， effectiveness， and cost-effectiveness of elderly patients with sarcopenia receiving Shenling baizhu powder combined with nutrition and exercise intervention， providing a reference for rational clinical drug use. METHODS A total of 237 elderly sarcopenia patients were randomly assigned to an observation group （118 cases） and a control group （119 cases）. Both groups of patients received nutrition and exercise intervention； the observation group added Shenling baizhu powder （6 g each time， three times daily） on this basis. The safety， effectiveness， and cost-effectiveness of the two plans were compared after 3 months. RESULTS Both groups of patients completed the follow-up. Before intervention， no significant difference was observed in skeletal muscle index （SMI）， grip strength， and 6-minute walk test （6MWT） speed between the two groups （P＞0.05）. After intervention， the grip strength of the patients in the observation group was significantly greater than that of the control group （25.05 kg vs. 23.18 kg， P＜0.01）； the treatment response rate of sarcopenia， SMI， and 6MWT speed were higher than those of the control group， butthe differences were not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. The adverse reaction/event rate of the patients in the observation group was lower than that of the control group （14.41% vs. 16.81%， P＝0.611）， but the difference was not statistically significant. Compared with the control group’s plan， the cost of the observation group’s plan was higher （981.25 yuan vs. 913.94 yuan）， and the effect was better （effectiveness rate： 0.618 6 vs. 0.563 0）， with an incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of 1 210.61 yuan. The results of the sensitivity analysis were consistent with the cost-effectiveness analysis results. CONCLUSION Elderly patients with sarcopenia who receive Shenling baizhu powder combined with nutrition and exercise intervention can significantly strengthen grip strength without increasing the incidence of adverse reactions/events. Compared with the control group plan， the observation group needs to spend an additional 1 210.61 yuan for each additional effective patient with sarcopenia.

Objective To explore the changes of the thickness of myometrium(MT),apparent diffusion coefficient value of myometrium(ADCM),thickness of junctional zone(JZT)and apparent diffusion coefficient value of junctional zone(ADCJz)in patients with endometrial fibrosis.Methods A total of 59 patients with endometrial fibrosis and 34 healthy women(volunteer)of childbearing age were prospectively included.The JZT,ADCJz,MT and ADCM were measured.Independent samples t-test was used to compare the differences in JZT,ADCJZ,MT,and ADCM between the two groups.A combined prediction model was established using binary logistic regression analysis(combining mean JZT,mean ADCJZ,and mean MT).The efficiency of each parameter's mean value and the combined prediction model in diagnosing endometrial fibrosis was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results JZT(anterior wall,posterior wall,fundus and mean;P=0.007,0.035,0.001 and＜0.001,respectively),ADCJZ(anterior wall,posterior wall,fundus and mean;all P＜0.001)and MT(anterior wall,posterior wall and mean;P=0.003,＜0.001 and 0.003,respectively)were significantly larger in patients with endometrial fibrosis compared to volunteer.Mean ADCJZ[area under the curve(AUC)=0.872]and the combined prediction model(AUC=0.953)had high value for diagnosing endometrial fibrosis.Conclusion MRI can be used for noninvasively assessing the changes of myometrium and JZ in patients with endometrial fibrosis.
