OBJECTIVE:
To observe the effects of Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture (acupuncture for unblocking the obstruction in the governor vessel and regulating the spirit) on the depression-like behavior and the hippocampal neuronal ferroptosis mediated by solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11)/glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) pathway in depression rats, and explore the mechanism of this therapy for depression.
METHODS:
Of 30 male SD rats of SPF grade, 24 rats were selected. According to the random number table, they were divided into a normal group (n=8) and a modeling group (n=16). The rats in the modeling group were subjected to chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) for 28 consecutive days to establish depression model. After modeling, 16 successfully-modeled rats were randomly divided into a model group and an acupuncture group, 8 rats in each one. In the acupuncture group, Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture was applied to "Dazhui"(GV14), "Shuigou" (GV26), "Baihui" (GV20) and "Shenting" (GV24). This intervention measure was deliveredonce a day, continuously for 6 days. The intervention discontinued on day 7, and was completed in 4 weeks. Before and after modeling, and after intervention completion, the behavioristics detection was performed using sucrose preference experiment and open field experiment. After intervention, using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Nissl staining, the morphology of hippocampal neurons was observed; with Western blot method, the protein expression of GPX4, SLC7A11, Ferritin and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family 4 (ACSL4) in hippocampal tissues was detected; with the real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR adopted, the mRNA expression of GPX4, SLC7A11, Ferritin and ACSL4 was detected; and using colorimetry, the hippocampal iron content was determined.
RESULTS:
After modeling, the sucrose preference rates, the total distance of movement, the standing times and the boxes of horizontal crossing in the model group and the acupuncture group were lower than those in the normal group (P<0.01). After the intervention, the sucrose preference rates, the total distance of movement, the standing times and the boxes of horizontal crossing in the acupuncture group were higher than those in the model group (P<0.01, P<0.05). Compared with the normal group, the number of necrotic cells increased and the number of Nissl bodies decreased in the model group; and when compared with the model group, the neuronal pyknosis and necrosis were ameliorated, the cells were arranged more regularly, the neuronal structure was clear, the matrix was dense, the blood vessels were enriched and the number of Nissl bodies increased in the acupuncture group. In comparison with the normal group, the relative expression of protein and mRNA of hippocampal GPX4, SLC7A11 decreased (P<0.01), it increased in the expression of hippocampal Ferritin and ACSL4 (P<0.01) in the model group. When compared with the model group, in the acupuncture group, the relative expression of protein and mRNA of hippocampal GPX4, SLC7A11 was elevated (P<0.01, P<0.05), it was dropped for hippocampal Ferritin and ACSL4 (P<0.01). In the model group, the hippocampal iron content was elevated when compared with that in the normal group (P<0.01); and it was reduced in the acupuncture group when compared with that in the model group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Tongdu Tiaoshen acupuncture attenuates depression-like behaviors in the depression rats, which may be related to regulating SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway and inhibiting neuronal ferroptosis in the hippocampus.

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 drug resistance of Enterobacter cloacae isolated from blood samples in 75 member units of the Bacterial Drug Resistance Monitoring Network in Hebei, 2016- 2021, so as to provide a basis for rational drug use in clinic. Methods WHONET 5.6 software was used to retrospectively analyze drug susceptibility of Enterobacter cloacae isolated from 32 secondary hospitals and 43 tertiary hospitals. SPSS19.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results After removing the duplicate strains, 1 225 strains of E. cloacae were isolated from blood samples of 75 hospitals during 6 years, including 157 strains from secondary hospitals and 1 068 strains from tertiary hospitals. In this study, the resistance of Enterobacter cloacae to 16 kinds of antibiotics was analyzed. The drug resistance rates to cefuroxime (52.4%-67.8%), piperacillin (27.4%-31.2%), ceftazidime (27.8%-35.5%), ceftriaxone (29.5%-45.0%), aztreonam (22.2%-32.3%), cotrimoxazole (21.6%-28.7%) were higher; the resistance rates to amikacin and tobramycin were lower than 15.0%. The resistance rates to imipenem and meropenem were 3.6%-12.3% and 5.1%-11.4%, respectively. The resistance rate to ciprofloxacin in tertiary hospitals was 22.4%, and the resistance rate to cotrimoxazole was 23.9%. Except for these two antimicrobials, the resistance rates to other antimicrobial drugs in tertiary hospitals were higher than that in secondary hospitals. A total of 121 carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae strains were detected in the past 6 years, with an increasing detection rate (χ2trend=6.305, P=0.012). Conclusions Enterobacter cloacae has great differences in antimicrobial resistance to different antibiotics, and is sensitive to carbapenems. The drug resistance in tertiary hospitals is generally higher than that in secondary hospitals. Drug resistance monitoring and drug resistance mechanism research should be strengthened to better guide clinical drug use and curb the rise of drug resistance.
