ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Jianpi Qinghua granules on blood glucose fluctuations in patients with newly diagnosed overweight/obese type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM） and Qi-Yin deficiency syndrome from the perspective of skeletal muscle mass and function， while providing new insights for the treatment of diabetes. MethodsThis study employed a randomized， double-blind， placebo-controlled design. A total of 110 newly diagnosed overweight/obese T2DM patients meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to either the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） group （54 cases） or the control group （56 cases）. Patients in the TCM group received Jianpi Qinghua Granules， while those in the control group received a placebo. Both groups underwent dietary and exercise guidance. After 12 weeks of intervention， blood glucose fluctuations were assessed using the following parameters： time in the target blood glucose range （TIR）， mean daily blood glucose （MBG）， standard deviation of mean daily blood glucose （SDBG）， mean amplitude of glycemic excursions （MAGE）， coefficient of variation of blood glucose （CV）， glycated hemoglobin （HbA1c） achievement rate， fasting plasma glucose （FPG）， and 2 hour postprandial glucose （2 hPG）. Skeletal muscle mass was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry （DXA）， while skeletal muscle function was evaluated using a handheld dynamometer for distal muscle strength and a 5-time sit-to-stand test for lower limb function. Additionally， pancreatic islet function and TCM syndrome scores were analyzed. ResultsNo significant differences were observed in baseline data between the two groups before intervention， ensuring comparability. After treatment， compared to the control group， the TCM group showed a significant increase in TIR （P<0.01）. While the SDBG and CV decreased， and MBG and MAGE increased in the TCM group， these differences were not statistically significant. Notably， the TCM group exhibited significant reductions in 2 hPG （P<0.01） and HbA1c （P<0.05）， though the decrease in FPG was not statistically significant. The HbA1c achievement rate in the TCM group was significantly higher than that in the control group （χ²=45.498， P<0.01）. In terms of skeletal muscle mass and function， the TCM group demonstrated a significant increase in handgrip strength （P<0.01） and a significant reduction in the 5-time sit-to-stand duration （P<0.05）. However， although body fat percentage increased， leading to a decrease in skeletal muscle mass and the ratio of skeletal muscle to fat， these changes were not statistically significant. For pancreatic islet function， the TCM group showed significant reductions in fasting insulin （FINS） and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance （HOMA-IR） （P<0.01）. Additionally， the TCM syndrome score in the TCM group was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. ConclusionJianpi Qinghua granules may reduce blood glucose fluctuations in newly diagnosed overweight/obese T2DM patients with Qi-Yin deficiency syndrome by enhancing skeletal muscle function， improving pancreatic islet function， and ameliorating related TCM syndromes.

MethodsEight C57BL/6J mice were set as the normal group， and 32 ApoE^-/- mice were randomly divided into the model group， the positive drug group（atorvastatin， 5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， HCT low- and high-dose groups（1.95， 3.90 g·kg^-1·d^-1）. ApoE^-/- mice were fed with high-fat and high-cholesterol feed to establish an AS mouse model. After modeling， they were orally administered corresponding dose of drugs for 28 days， while the normal and model groups received an equal volume of physiological saline via oral gavage. Hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to observe the pathological status of the aorta and liver in mice， Biochemical testing and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） were used to detect the levels of total cholesterol（TC）， triglycerides（TG）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol（LDL-C）， alanine aminotransferase（ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase（AST）， C-reactive protein（CRP）， interleukin（IL）-1β， IL-18 in the serum， as well as superoxide dismutase（SOD）， malondialdehyde（MDA）， and reduced glutathione（GSH） in the liver. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR） was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of NLRP3， apoptosis-associated speck-like protein（ASC）， cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1（Caspase-1）， Toll-like receptor 4（TLR4） in the aorta， and fatty acid synthase（FAS）， stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1（SCD1）， PPARα， and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A（CPT1A） in the liver.

ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed a significant increase in lipid plaque deposition in the aorta and lipid accumulation in the liver， the levels of TC， TG， LDL-C， AST， ALT， IL-1β， IL-18 and CRP in the serum were significantly increased（P<0.01）， and the mRNA and protein expressions of aortic TLR4， NLRP3， Caspase-1 and ASC were significantly upregulated（P<0.01）. The levels of SOD and GSH in the liver were significantly reduced， while the level of MDA was significantly increased（P<0.01）. The mRNA expressions of FAS and SCD1 in the liver were significantly downregulated， while the mRNA expressions of PPARα and CPT1A were significantly upregulated. The protein expressions of p-AMPK/AMPK and CPT1A in the liver were significantly reduced， while the expressions of SREBP-1c and FAS proteins were significantly increased（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the low- and high-dose HCT groups showed significant improvements in aortic plaques and hepatic lipid deposition. The levels of TC， LDL-C， AST， IL-1β and IL-18 in the serum of the low-dose HCT group， as well as TC， TG， LDL-C， AST， ALT， IL-1β， IL-18 and CRP in the serum of the high-dose HCT group， were significantly reduced（P<0.01）. The mRNA expressions of TLR4， NLRP3 and Caspase-1 in the aorta of the low-dose HCT group， as well as TLR4， NLRP3， Caspase-1 and ASC in the aorta of the high-dose HCT group， were significantly downregulated（P<0.01）. The protein expressions of Caspase-1 and ASC in the aorta of the low-dose HCT group， as well as NLRP3， Caspase-1 and ASC in the high-dose HCT group， were significantly downregulated（P<0.01）. The levels of SOD and GSH in the liver of the low- and high-dose HCT groups were significantly increased， while the level of MDA in the high-dose HCT group was significantly decreased（P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the HCT-treated group， the mRNA expressions of FAS and SCD1 in the liver were significantly upregulated， while the mRNA expressions of PPARα and CPT1A were significantly downregulated， the protein expressions of p-AMPK/AMPK and CPT1A in the liver were significantly increased， while the protein expressions of SREBP-1c and FAS were significantly decreased（P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionHCT can improve lipid metabolism by activating the AMPK/PPARα pathway and inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated inflammatory responses， thereby reducing hepatic lipid deposition and AS plaque formation.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Yishen Qubi Tongluo Formula （益肾祛痹通络方， YQTF） in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis（RA）. MethodsNetwork pharmacology was employed to retrieve and screen the active components and potential targets of YQTF as well as RA-related targets using databases including TCMSP， BATMAN， ETCM and GEO. The intersection of targets related to active components and RA-related targets was identified， and a protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed. Gene Ontology （GO） functional enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis were performed， and a drug-active component-common target network of YQTF in the treatment of RA was established. The core components of YQTF were molecularly docked with key targets. Human rheumatoid arthritis synovial fibroblast cell line MH7A was divided into blank group， model group， methotrexate group and YQTF group. The blank group was cultured with 10% fetal bovine serum， while the other three groups were stimulated with 10 μg/L of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） for 24 h to establish the RA cell model. On this basis， the methotrexate group was treated with methotrexate suspension at a concentration of 20 μmol/L， and the YQTF group was treated with 10% YQTF-medicated serum. After 48 h of intervention， the levels of TNF-α and interleukin-17A（IL-17A）contents in cell supernatants were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， and mRNA expressions of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase（PI3K）， protein kinase B（AKT） and mammalian target of rapamycin（mTOR） were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （RT-qPCR）. ResultsNetwork pharmacological analysis identified 209 active components and 583 potential target genes of YQTF， as well as 818 RA-related targets. A total of 29 common targets were obtained from the intersection of drug-related targets and RA-related targets. Quercetin，β-sitosterol， kaempferol， stigmasterol and luteolin were the core active components of YQTF for the treatment of RA， while matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP9）， prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 （PTGS2）， Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）， tumor protein p53 （TP53） and transcription factor AP-1 subunit JUN were the key targets. The GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that the involved biological processes and pathways were mainly associated with antioxidant responses， PI3K-AKT signaling pathway and Toll-like receptor （TLR） signaling pathway. Molecular docking results showed that MMP9 and PTGS2 exhibited high binding affinities with quercetin， β-sitosterol， kaempferol， stigmasterol and luteolin； TLR4 exhibited high binding activities with β-sitosterol， stigmasterol and luteolin； and TP53 showed high binding affinity with luteolin. The results of cell experiments showed that compared with the control group， the contents of TNF-α and IL-17A as well as the mRNA expressions of AKT and mTOR in the model group significantly increased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， all the above indicators significantly decreased in the YQTF group， while the contents of TNF-α and the mRNA expression of AKT significantly decreased in the methotrexate group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionThe mechanism of YQTF in the treatment of RA may be associated with reducing inflammatory cytokine secretion and inhibiting the activation of the PI3K-AKT-mTOR signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of serum containing Zhenwutang on myocardial mast cell apoptosis induced by angiotensin Ⅱ （AngⅡ） and the mechanism of the correlation between apoptosis and mitochondrial autophagy. MethodsIn this experiment， AngⅡ and serum containing Zhenwutang with different concentrations were used to interfere with H9C2 cardiomyocytes for 24 h， and the survival rate of H9C2 cardiomyocytes was detected by cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） to screen the optimal concentration for the experiment. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the content of B-type natriuretic peptide （BNP） in cell culture supernatant， and immunofluorescence was used to detect the cell surface area to verify the construction of the myocardial mast cell model. Subsequently， the experiment was divided into a blank group （20% blank serum）， a model group （20% blank serum + 5×10^-5 mol·L^-1 AngⅡ）， low-， medium-， and high-dose （5%， 10% and 20%） serum containing Zhenwutang groups， an autophagy inhibitor group （1×10^-4 mol·L^-1 3-MA）， and autophagy inducer group （1×10^-7 mol·L^-1 rapamycin）. The apoptosis level of H9C2 cells and the changes of mitochondrial membrane potential were detected by flow cytometry. The lysosomal probe （Lyso Tracker） and mitochondrial probe （Mito Tracker） co-localization was employed to detect autophagy. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect Caspase-3， Caspase-9， B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-related X protein （Bax）， and cytochrome C （Cyt C） in apoptosis-related pathways and the relative mRNA expression of ubiquitin ligase （Parkin）， phosphatase and tensin homolog （PTEN）-induced kinase 1 （PINK1）， and p62 protein in mitochondrial autophagy-related pathways. Western blot was used to detect cleaved Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-9， Bax， Bcl-2， and Cyt C in apoptosis-related pathways， phosphorylated ubiquitin ligase （p-Parkin）， phosphorylated PTEN-induced kinase 1 （p-PINK1）， p62， and Bcl-2 homology domain protein Beclin1 in mitochondrial autophagy-related pathways， and the change of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3） Ⅱ/Ⅰ ratio. ResultsCCK-8 showed that when the concentration of AngⅡ was 5×10^-5 mol·L^-1， the cell activity was the lowest， and there was no cytotoxicity. At this concentration， the surface area of cardiomyocytes was significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the content of BNP in the supernatant of culture medium was significantly increased （P<0.05）. Therefore， AngⅡ with a concentration of 5×10^-5 mol·L^-1 was selected for the subsequent modeling of myocardial mast cells. Compared with the blank group， the model group and the autophagy inhibitor 3-MA group had a significantly increased apoptosis rate （P<0.01） and significantly decreased mitochondrial membrane potential （P<0.01）. The results of immunofluorescence co-localization showed that compared with the blank group， the model group had a significantly decreased number of red and green fluorescence spots. The results of Real-time PCR showed that compared with that in the blank group， the relative mRNA expression of Bax， Caspase-3， Caspase-9， Cyt C， and p62 in the model group was significantly up-regulated （P<0.01）， while the relative mRNA expression of Bcl-2， Parkin， and PINK1 was significantly down-regulated （P<0.01）. In addition， the relative protein expression of Bax， cleaved Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-9， Cyt C， and p62 was significantly up-regulated （P<0.01）. The LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ was significantly decreased， and the relative protein expression of Bcl-2， p-Parkin， p-PINK1， and Beclin1 was significantly down-regulated （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the serum containing Zhenwutang groups and the autophagy inducer group had significantly decreased apoptosis rate （P<0.01）， and the decrease ratio of mitochondrial membrane potential is significantly lowered （P<0.01） in a dose-dependent manner. Additionally， both red and green fluorescence spots became more in these groups. In the 3-MA group， the number of red and green fluorescence spots decreased significantly. The relative mRNA expression of Bax， Caspase-3， Caspase-9， Cyt C， and p62 was significantly down-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while that of Bcl-2， Parkin， and PINK1 was significantly up-regulated （P<0.01）. In the serum containing Zhenwutang groups， the relative protein expression levels of Bax， cleaved Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-9， Cyt C， and p62 were significantly down-regulated （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ was significantly increased， and the relative protein expression levels of Bcl-2， p-Parkin， p-PINK1， and Beclin1 were significantly up-regulated （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe serum containing Zhenwutang can reduce the apoptosis of myocardial mast cells and increase mitochondrial autophagy. This is related to the inhibition of intracellular Bax/Bcl-2/Caspase-3 apoptosis pathway and regulation of Parkin/PINK1 mitochondrial autophagy pathway.

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, and postoperative radiotherapy remains an essential component of its treatment. In recent years, hypofractionated radiotherapy has gradually become the recommended approach for postoperative breast cancer treatment. Compared with conventional fractionated radiotherapy, hypofractionated regimens shorten the overall treatment duration, enhance patient convenience, and reduce treatment costs, while achieving comparable long-term efficacy and maintaining good quality of life. Based on relevant domestic and international studies and clinical experience, this consensus establishes expert recommendations regarding indications, prescribed doses, dose constraints for organs at risk (OAR), implementation methods, and plan evaluation for hypofractionated radiotherapy after breast cancer surgery, with a particular focus on moderately hypofractionated (MHF) and ultrahypofractionated (UHF) regimens. MHF radiotherapy is applicable to whole-breast irradiation, chest wall irradiation, and regional nodal irradiation, and is suitable for most breast cancer patients. UHF radiotherapy, which employs a higher dose per fraction to further shorten the treatment course, is suitable for patients requiring rapid therapy or prioritizing treatment convenience. Although the short-term efficacy of UHF radiotherapyis similar to that of MHF radiotherapy, its long-term efficacy and safety require further clinical validation. Meanwhile, potential adverse effects of UHF, such as breast induration and atrophy, should be carefully assessed. Therefore, radiotherapy dose and fractionation regimen should be individualized according to patient-specific factors, particularly considering OAR dose constraints. Rational selection of radiotherapy regimens can minimize adverse effects while maintaining therapeutic efficacy, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life. This consensus provides scientific guidance for the clinical and research application of hypofractionated radiotherapy in breast cancer.

Postoperative cognitive dysfunction(POCD)is the common postoperative complications in elderly patients,significantly affects their postoperative recovery and quality of life.With the intensification of population aging,how to effectively prevent and treat POCD has become an important topic in clinical re-search.Esketamine(ISLAT)serves as a new anesthetic drug and its potential in improving postoperative cog-nitive function has gradually attracted people's attention.Previous studies have shown that that esketamine can not only alleviate postoperative pain,but may also protect the neurons and reduce the incidence of POCD in elderly patients by regulating the balance of neurotransmitters and reducing inflammatory responses,and has potential clinical application value.However,the researches on the specific mechanisms of action and relat-ed signaling pathways of esketamine is still limited and requires further exploration.This article aims to inves-tigate the role of esketamine in reducing POCD in elderly patients and its related signaling pathway,clarifies the clinical usage strategy and precautions to provide a theoretical basis for clinical application.

AIM To investigate the effects of Huazhuo Jiedu Shugan Formula(HJSGF)on improving learning and memory impairment in a rat model of vascular dementia(VD)via SIRT1/PGC-1α/PPARγ pathway.METHODS The SD rats were randomly divided into the sham control group,the model group,the donepezil group(0.5 mg/kg),and the low-,medium-and high-dose HJSGF groups(2.7,5.4,10.8 g/kg),with 10 rats in each group.The VD rat models established by bilateral common carotid artery permanent ligation(2-VO)had their neurological behavior assessment using the Longa5-point scale,and their modeling success confirmed by the Morris water maze test and their 3-week corresponding dosing of drugs by gavage afterward.After the drug administration,the rats had their spatial memory ability tested through behavioral experiments;their serum levels of IL-18 and IL-1β measured by ELISA;their histopathological changes and neuronal morphology in the hippocampal CA1 region observed by HE staining and Nissl staining;and their hippocampal protein expressions of SIRT1,PGC-1α and PPARγ detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the sham control group,the model group showed prolonged escape latency(P＜0.01);decreased platform crossing times and target quadrant residence time(P＜0.01);disorganized arrangement of hippocampal CA1 neurons,nuclear condensation,reduced Nissl bodies,increased secretion and protein expressions of IL-1β and IL-18(P＜0.01);and reduced hippocampal protein expressions of SIRT1,PGC-1α and PPARγ(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the groups intervened with donepezil or HJSGF showed shortened escape latency(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);increased platform crossing times and target quadrant residence time(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);alleviated damage of the hippocampal CA1 region,reduced secretion and protein expressions of IL-1β and IL-18(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and elevated hippocampal protein expressions of SIRT1,PGC-1α and PPARγ(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION HJSGF may alleviate the inflammatory responses in VD rats and therefore improve their learning and memory impairment by activating the SIRT1/PGC-1α/PPARγ signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the correlation between abnormal vital signs (e.g., heart rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature) and acute exacerbations in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as to evaluate the clinical value of continuous monitoring via wearable devices for the early warning and intervention.Methods:A multicenter cross-sectional study enrolled 335 patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) from 12 community health centers in Beijing and Chengdu between June 2023 and May 2024. General demographic and clinical data were collected, and each participant underwent continuous monitoring of resting heart rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature using wearable devices for 21 days. Based on whether participants had experienced acute exacerbations requiring outpatient, emergency, or inpatient treatment within the previous year, they were categorized into the acute exacerbation group and the non-exacerbation group. Differences in physiological parameters between the acute exacerbation group and non-exacerbation group were analyzed, and contributing factors were assessed using logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 335 patients with stable COPD were enrolled, including 252 cases (75.22%) in the acute exacerbation group and 83 cases (24.78%) in the non-acute exacerbation group. There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex distribution, comorbidities, or baseline lung function between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared with the non-acute exacerbation group, patients in the acute exacerbation group had a faster resting heart rate((76.01 ± 7.78) beats/min vs. (72.72 ± 7.35) beats/min, t=3.126, P=0.002), a higher proportion of patients with decreased oxygen saturation (1.75% (0.97%, 3.03%) vs. 0.86% (0.44%, 1.65%), Z=11.086, P=0.001), and a higher proportion of patients with elevated body temperature (0.60% (0.39%, 1.03%) vs. 0.31% (0.17%, 0.54%), Z=7.314, P=0.007). Logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age ( OR=1.051, 95% CI: 1.023-1.080), increased heart rate ( OR=1.055, 95% CI:1.013-1.098), decreased oxygen saturation ( OR=1.197, 95% CI:1.023-1.400), and elevated body temperature ( OR=1.777, 95% CI:1.148-2.752) were positively associated factors for acute exacerbation of COPD. Conclusions:Abnormalities in physiological indicators such as heart rate, oxygen saturation, and body temperature are associated with acute exacerbations in COPD patients. Continuous monitoring using wearable devices may provide a new method for early warning and timely intervention in COPD exacerbations.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of Jianpi Qinghua granule in improving skeletal muscle insulin resistance induced by long-term low-dose cadmium exposure in rats.Methods:A total of 24 SPF-grade healthy 2-month-old Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to normal control(NC) group, cadmium exposure(Cd) group, and Jianpi Qinghua granule protection(Cd+ JPQHG) group. After 24 weeks, fasting blood glucose and insulin levels were measured, and HOMA-IR was calculated. The intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test and insulin tolerance test were conducted to assess insulin sensitivity. Skeletal muscle tissues were extracted for Western blot analysis to detect levels of insulin signaling pathway-related proteins. Immunofluorescence was used to assess the translocation of glucose transporter 4(GLUT4), and oxidative stress markers were measured.Results:Compared to the NC group, the Cd group showed significant increases in fasting plasma glucose, fasting insulin levels, and HOMA-IR after 24-week exposure. Abnormal glucose and insulin tolerance were also observed in the Cd group. The 12-week intervention with Jianpi Qinghua granule significantly improved glucose metabolism and alleviated the abnormalities in glucose and insulin tolerance. Western blot results indicated that the phosphorylation levels of PI3K and Akt in the skeletal muscle of the Cd group were significantly reduced compared to the NC group, while these levels were significantly elevated in the Cd+ JPQHG group, along with increased translocation of GLUT4 to the cell membrane. Additionally, cadmium exposure significantly increased H 2O 2 and malondialdehyde levels while decreased antioxidant enzyme activity. These oxidative stress indicators improved significantly after Jianpi Qinghua granule intervention( P<0.05). Conclusion:Jianpi Qinghua granule may improve skeletal muscle insulin resistance and glucose metabolism disorders due to long-term low-dose cadmium exposure by reducing oxidative stress, regulating the phosphorylation levels of key proteins in the insulin signaling pathway, and promoting GLUT4 translocation to the cell membrane.
