ObjectiveTo verify the therapeutic effect of Yinqi Sanhuang Jiedu decoction （YQSH） on carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）-induced hepatic fibrosis in mice， and to explore whether its effect was related to the inhibition of neutrophil infiltration and the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs）. MethodsThe 36 C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group， model group， positive drug silybin （SF） group （55 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， YQSH-L group， YQSH-M group， and YQSH-H group （8.325， 16.65， 33.3 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively），n=6 in each group. Except for the control group， mice in all other groups were intraperitoneally injected with CCl₄ to induce hepatic fibrosis. After successful modeling， each drug administration group was given the corresponding drugs by gavage for eight weeks. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， Sirius red staining and Masson staining were used to observe the pathological changes of liver tissue. Liver elasticity was detected by a color Doppler ultrasound system. Immunohistochemistry and real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） were performed to detect the protein expression and mRNA levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1 （CXCL1）， CXCL2 and CXCL5. Neutrophil levels were detected by flow cytometry. The expression of neutrophil elastase （NE） and myeloperoxidase （MPO） positive protein was observed by immunofluorescence. The contents of MPO， NE and CitH3 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. ResultsCompared with the control group， the liver of the model group showed obvious inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition， and the liver elasticity， CXCL1， CXCL2， CXCL5 expression， neutrophil level， and MPO， NE and CitH3 levels were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition in the liver tissue of mice were reduced after YQSH treatment. Moreover， the liver elasticity was reduced （P<0.01）. The protein expression （P<0.01） and mRNA level of CXCL1， CXCL2 and CXCL5 were decreased（P<0.05，P<0.01）. The neutrophil level was decreased （P<0.01）， the expression of MPO and NE positive protein was significantly decreased（P<0.05，P<0.01）， and the levels of MPO， NE and CitH3 were decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe anti-hepatic fibrosis effect of YQSH may be related to its inhibition of chemokines （CXCL1， CXCL2， CXCL5）， reduction of neutrophil infiltration， and inhibition of NETs generation.

ObjectiveTo validate the therapeutic effect of Yinqi Sanhuang Jiedu decoction （YQSH） on a mouse model of carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）-induced liver fibrosis and to investigate its correlations with the Piezo-type mechanosensitive ion channel component 1 （Piezo1）-Yes-associated protein （YAP） mechanical signaling axis and macrophage polarization. MethodsFifty-four C57BL/6J mice were randomized into a blank control group， a 4-week model group， a 6-week model group， a 8-week model group， a positive drug （silymarin， 55 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） group， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （8.325， 16.65， 33.3 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） YQSH groups. Except the 6-week model group （n=12）， each of the other groups had 6 mice. Mice in other groups except the blank control group received intraperitoneal injections of 10% CCl₄ twice weekly for the modeling of liver fibrosis. Drug interventions began one week after the initial modeling through gavage， and the blank control and model groups received 0.2 mL of normal saline via gavage. The histopathological changes and collagen deposition in the liver were observed via hematoxylin-eosin （HE）， Masson's trichrome， and Sirius red staining. Serum activities of alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， as well as serum levels of total protein （TP）， albumin （ALB）， total bilirubin （TBIL）， hyaluronic acid （HA）， laminin （LN）， procollagen type Ⅲ （PCⅢ）， and collagen type Ⅳ （Ⅳ-C）， were measured. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and interleukin-1β （IL-1β） in the liver tissue were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The protein and mRNA levels of Piezo1 and YAP1 in the liver tissue were determined by immunohistochemistry （IHC） and Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， respectively. Co-localization of Piezo1 with YAP1， and YAP1 with inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） was observed by the immunofluorescence （IF） assay. The proportions of M1-type （F4/80⁺CD80⁺） and M2-type （F4/80⁺CD206⁺） macrophages in the liver tissue were examined by flow cytometry. Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analyses and gene set enrichment analysis （GSEA） were performed through transcriptomic sequencing. ResultsCompared with the blank control group， the model group exhibited gradually worsened liver fibrosis at the 4^th， 6^th， and 8^th weeks. The 6- and 8-week model groups showcased inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition in the liver （P<0.01） and upregulated protein levels of both Piezo1 and YAP1 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model groups， treatment with YQSH improved the liver function （P<0.05， P<0.01）， alleviated liver fibrosis （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and reduced intrahepatic inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition （P<0.01）. Furthermore， the treatment downregulated the protein and mRNA levels of Piezo1 and YAP1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， lowered the levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-1β （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and decreased the ratio of CD80 （M1-type）/CD206 （M2-type） macrophage proteins （P<0.01）. The IF assay showed co-localization of YAP1 with Piezo1 and iNOS. Compared with the model groups， YQSH treatment downregulated the expression of Piezo1， YAP1， and iNOS （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Transcriptomic analysis suggested that the anti-liver fibrosis effect of YQSH may be related to the Hippo signaling pathway （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe anti-liver fibrosis effect of YQSH may be related to its inhibition of the Piezo1-YAP signaling axis and regulation of macrophage polarization.

Malignant tumors(commonly referred to as cancer)represent a major global public health challenge and contribute significantly to the worldwide disease burden.Early screening plays a critical role in improving detection rates,enabling timely intervention,and enhancing pa-tient survival rates.However,current cancer screening guidelines primarily focus on site-specific screening,which may not fully address the need for comprehensive early detection.A scientifical-ly rational,multi-cancer screening approach offers several advantages:it optimizes the use of bio-logical samples,reduces time costs for participants,enhances the efficiency and comprehensive-ness of screening,and minimizes overall expenses.Such an approach also facilitates the rational allocation of healthcare resources,ultimately helping to reduce the societal burden of cancer.To address this need,the Cancer Epidemiology Committee of the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association has developed the Expert Consensus on Combined Screening for Common Cancers in China.This consensus integrates multidisciplinary expertise and synthesizes the latest domestic and interna-tional researches on cancer screening,early detection,and treatment for prevalent malignancies.Drawing upon China's unique demographic and healthcare context,as well as practical screening experiences,the consensus provides evidence-based recommendations on target populations,screening technologies,and procedural workflows for multi-cancer screening.These guidelines align with the principles and methodologies established by the World Health Organization(WHO),aiming to:enhance the effectiveness of combined cancer screening in China,improve early detec-tion rates,and provide a scientific foundation for national cancer prevention and control strategies.

In China,lung cancer ranks first in the incidence and death of malignant tumors.Early diagnosis and timely treatment can significantly improve the survival rate of lung cancer.However,75％of patients are already in the advanced stage at the time of initial diagnosis,missing the best treatment opportunity.Lung nodules are the manifestations of early lung cancer.How to accurately distinguish benign and malignant pul-monary nodules and avoid missing diagnosis of malignant lung nodules and over-treatment of benign lung nod-ules are important clinical problems.Liquid biopsy has the advantages of non-invasiveness,high reproducibili-ty,operability,easy dynamic monitoring and overcoming tumor heterogeneity,which can realize early detection and diagnosis of malignant tumors.Besides,it is the most potential precision tumor detection technology,which is expected to become a breakthrough in the diagnosis of benign and malignant lung nodules.This arti-cle reviews the research and application of liquid biopsy in the diagnosis of lung nodules in recent years,in or-der to provide ideas for clinical application and future research.

BACKGROUND:The types of acetabular double-column fractures are complex and common.At present,the traditional reconstructed bone plates are used to treat the double-column fractures,and the mismatch between them and the bone surface will increase the difficulty of surgery.Personalized bone plate can realize the adhesion of bone plate and bone surface,but the biomechanical comparison between personalized bone plate and traditional reconstructed bone plate in fixation of acetabular double column fracture is few,and the simulated posture is relatively simple.OBJECTIVE:Three-dimensional finite element method was used to analyze the biomechanical characteristics of different internal fixation methods of complex acetabular double-column fractures in various positions,providing the necessary biomechanical basis for clinical application.METHODS:The most representative two-column fracture model of complex acetabular fractures involving square area was established.A three-dimensional finite element model was established for the fixation of complex acetabular double-column fractures by four different internal fixation methods:special-shaped titanium plate fixation(group A),anterior and posterior column double titanium plate fixation(group B),anterior column reconstruction titanium plate+posterior column lag screw fixation(group C),and anterior column reconstruction titanium plate+subacetabular screw fixation(group D).Four kinds of complicated acetabular double-column fracture models with different internal fixation were simulated in the position of sitting,standing,affected side extension,affected side abduction,and affected side standing on one leg.The biomechanical properties of the four internal fixation methods were compared.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The node displacement and mean displacement on fracture line were presented as group A＜group B＜group C＜group D in all postures.The displacement value in the one-leg standing position on the affected side was the largest compared with other postures,and the maximum displacement of the internal fixation system in group A was the smallest among the four models.There was no significant difference between the four groups in the standing position and the one-legged standing position(P＞0.05).In the position of sitting,affected side extension,and affected side abduction,there was no significant difference between group A and group B,group B and group C,and group C and group D(P＞0.05),but there was significant difference between group A and group C,group A and group D,and group B and group D(P＜0.05).(2)The maximum stress of each fracture block in group A was smaller than that in other groups,and the stress distribution of fracture block was more uniform.The stress of the internal fixator was mainly concentrated in the area near the fracture end of the bone plate.The stress distribution of the internal fixator was more uniform in groups A and B,while the stress concentration of the internal fixator in groups C and D was more obvious,and the maximum stress value of the internal fixator in group A decreased by 4.86％-54.61％compared with the other three groups.(3)In the affected side extension and abduction position,both groups A and B had a large stress shielding rate,and the maximum difference between the two groups was 5.67％.In the one-legged standing position on the affected side,the internal fixed stress shielding rate of group A was the highest,while that of group D was the lowest.(4)It is indicated that shaped personalized titanium plate fixation(group A)has better biomechanical stability than the other three groups of traditional reconstructed bone plate fixation.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of integrating virtual simulation technology with case-based learning(CBL)in the teaching of clinical blood transfusion testing technology.Methods From January to June 2024,99 undergraduate students majoring in medical laboratory science at our university were selected and divided into an observation group(50 students)and a control group(49 students)based on their classes.The control group followed a traditional theoretical teaching model,while the observation group employed virtual simulation technology combined with CBL.Results The study compared as-sessment scores for theory learning,practical skills,case analysis,and comprehensive quality,teaching effects such as coordina-tion and cooperation abilities,self-efficacy measured by the GSES scale,and teaching satisfaction between the two groups.The results indicated that the observation group had significantly higher scores in all assessment categories,teaching effect abilities,and total GSES scores compared to the control group(P＜0.05).The total teaching satisfaction rate in the observation group reached 100%,significantly higher than the 80% in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The integration of virtual simu-lation technology with CBL innovates the teaching model for clinical blood transfusion testing courses,effectively enhancing students'professional skills and comprehensive quality,boosting self-efficacy,and achieving high student satisfaction,demon-strating significant potential for broader application.

Objective:To investigate the safety of the tetravalent meningococcal conjugate vaccine (MPCV-ACYW) in combination with the inactivated poliomyelitis (IPV) vaccine and diphtheria-tetanus-acellular pertussis (DTaP) vaccine for infants aged 3-5 months and provide real-world evidence for the immunization strategy of vaccine combination.Methods:From June to October 2023, a total of 600 3-month-old infants were selected and divided into three groups: control group, mono-vaccination group and combined vaccination group. They were simultaneously or individually vaccinated with MPCV-ACYW, IPV and DTaP vaccines at 3, 4, and 5 months of age, respectively. The incidence rate of adverse reactions within 30 days after each dose was observed.Results:All 600 infants completed at least one vaccination and entered the safety data analysis. The age of the control group (100 infants), the mono-vaccination group (250 infants), and the combination group (250 infants) was (101.20±7.88), (102.26±7.94), and (102.35±7.76) days, respectively. The body lengths were (63.00±3.02), (62.55±3.06), and (63.14±4.02) cm, respectively. The body weights were (6.90±0.77), (6.86±0.94), and (6.99±0.95) kg, respectively. Boys accounted for 49%, 50.4%, and 52.4%, respectively, with no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). The overall incidence rates of adverse reactions in the control group, mono-vaccination group, and combined vaccination group were 4.00%, 2.80%, and 3.20%, respectively, with systemic adverse reaction rates of 3.00%, 2.40%, and 2.00%. The incidence rates of local adverse reactions were 1.00%, 0.40%, and 1.20%, with no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). Adverse reactions were mainly grade 1, with incidence rates of grade 1 adverse reactions of 3.00%, 2.00%, and 1.60% in the three groups, and incidence rates of grade 2 adverse reactions of 1.00%, 0.80%, and 1.60%, respectively. No grade 3 or 4 serious adverse reactions occurred, and the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). The adverse reaction symptoms of the three groups were mainly systemic reactions, among which fever and diarrhea symptoms were reported in individual cases in each group, with no statistically significant differences in the incidence rate (all P>0.05). The symptoms of adverse reactions were mostly transient and self-relieved, all of which were cured. Conclusion:The combination of MPCV-ACYW and IPV or DTaP vaccines is safe for infants aged 3-5 months.
