AIM: To analyze the influencing factors of capsular constriction syndrome(CCS)in cataract patients after phacoemulsification(Phaco)combined with intraocular lens(IOL)implantation.METHODS: Retrospective study. The data of 2 900 cataract patients(2 900 eyes)in our hospital's information system from January 2021 to January 2024 were collected. All patients were treated with Phaco combined with IOL implantation, and the incidence of CCS within 30 wk after surgery was recorded. Patients were categorized into CCS(116 cases, 116 eyes)and N-CCS group(2 784 cases, 2 784 eyes)based on the occurrence of CCS. The basic data of the two groups were compared, and the influencing factors of CCS within 30 wk after Phaco combined with IOL implantation in cataract patients were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.RESULTS: Among 2 900 patients(2 900 eyes)included, 116 cataract patients(116 eyes)developed CCS within 30 wk after Phaco combined with IOL implantation, with an incidence rate of 4.00%. The single factor and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis showed that the complicated diabetes, high myopia, complicated glaucoma, and axial length(AL)>30 mm were the risk factors for the occurrence of CCS after Phaco IOL implantation in cataract patients(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Attention should be paid to cataract patients with diabetes, high myopia, glaucoma and AL>30 mm, which will increase the risk of CCS within 30 wk after Phaco combined with IOL implantation in cataract patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of different concentrations of Shaoyaotang-containing serum on lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced inflammation of human colorectal adenocarcinoma （Caco-2） cells by inhibiting apoptosis via activating the tumor necrosis factor （TNF） receptor superfamily member 6 （Fas）/Fas ligand （FasL） pathway. MethodsCaco-2 cells were allocated into blank， model （LPS， 10 mg·L^-1）， Shaoyaotang-containing serum （5%， 10%， 15%， 20%）， and Fas inhibitor （KR-33493， 20 mmol·L^-1） groups. Except the blank group， the other groups were stimulated with 10 mg·L^-1 LPS for 24 h for the modeling of inflammation. After successful modeling， the blank， Fas inhibitor， and model groups were treated with blank serum， and the Shaoyaotang-containing serum groups were treated with the serum samples at corresponding concentrations for 24 h. The Fas inhibitor group was subjected to KR-33493 pretreatment for 1 h. Cell proliferation and viability were examined by the cell-counting kit-8 （CCK-8） method. The levels of interleukin （IL）-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The protein and mRNA levels of Fas， FasL， cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase （Caspase）-3， Caspase-9， B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， and Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax） were determined by Western blot and Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）， respectively. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group presented a decrease in cell survival rate （P<0.01）. Compared with that in the model group， the cell survival rate showed no significant change in the 5% Shaoyaotang-containing serum group but increased in the 10%， 15%， and 20% Shaoyaotang-containing serum groups （P<0.01）. Since there was no statistical difference between the 5% Shaoyaotang-containing serum group and the model group， 10%， 15%， and 20% Shaoyaotang-containing sera were selected for the follow-up study. Compared with the blank group， the model group showed risen levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.01）， an increased apoptosis rate （P<0.01）， up-regulated protein and mRNA levels of Fas， FasL， Caspase-3， Caspase-9， and Bax （P<0.01）， and down-regulated protein and mRNA levels of Bcl-2 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the Fas inhibitor group and the 10%， 15%， and 20% Shaoyaotang-containing serum groups showed declined levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.01）， decreased apoptosis rates （P<0.01）， down-regulated protein and mRNA levels of Fas， FasL， Caspase-3， Caspase-9， and Bax （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated protein and mRNA levels of Bcl-2 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In addition， the 15% and 20% Shaoyaotang-containing serum groups had lower levels of IL-6， IL-1β， and TNF-α （P<0.05， P<0.01）， lower apoptosis rates （P<0.05， P<0.01）， lower protein and mRNA levels of Fas， FasL， Caspase-3， Caspase-9， and Bax （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and higher protein and mRNA levels of Bcl-2 （P<0.05， P<0.01） than the 10% Shaoyaotang-containing serum group. ConclusionThe Shaoyaotang-containing serum can reduce the content of inflammatory factors in Caco-2 cells， down-regulate the protein and mRNA levels of Fas， FasL， Caspase-3， Caspase-9， and Bax， and up-regulate the protein and mRNA levels of Bcl-2 under the intervention of LPS by regulating the Fas/FasL pathway and inhibiting the apoptosis of intestinal epithelial cells in ulcerative colitis.

BackgroundMany studies have shown that patients with depressive disorder show impairments in prospective memory， while it is deemed necessary for facilitating their social reintegration， and the current research findings are inconsistent regarding the factors affecting prospective memory of patients with depressive disorder. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of target characteristics （emotional valence and salience） on prospective memory in patients with depressive disorder， so as to provide references for the training and recovery of prospective memory function in these patients. MethodsFrom January to December 2022， 53 patients with depressive disorder were recruited from the outpatient department of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Mental Health Center. Meanwhile， 45 healthy individuals were concurrently recruited from surrounding communities as control group. An experiment with a 2 （participant type： depressive disorder， healthy control） ×2 （target salience： salient， non-salient） ×3 （emotional valence： positive， neutral， negative） factorial design was conducted. The positive/neutral/negative emotional pictures from Chinese Affective Picture System （CAPS） were used for emotional stimulation. A dual-task experimental paradigm was adopted， and the response time and accuracy in prospective memory task and ongoing task were recorded for participants with different target characteristics. Results①In the prospective memory task， the main effect of participant type was statistically significant， with the depressive group showing lower accuracy （F=14.892， P<0.01） and longer response time （F=10.642， P=0.002） compared with control group. ② The main effect of target emotional valence on accuracy （F=7.575， P=0.001） and response time （F=3.196， P=0.044） in the prospective memory task was statistically significant. Simple effect analysis revealed that depressive group yielded a shorter response time and higher accuracy rate under negative conditions compared with positive and neutral conditions （P<0.05 or 0.01）. ③ The main effect of target salience on accuracy （F=6.659， P=0.012） and response time （F=10.106， P=0.002） in the prospective memory task was also statistically significant， with higher accuracy and shorter response time for salient targets compared with non-salient targets. ConclusionPatients with depressive disorder demonstrate preferential attention to and processing of negative stimuli in prospective memory tasks， while increasing target salience may facilitate spontaneous processing of prospective memory task in patients with depressive disorder. ［Funded by Inner Mongolia Health Commission Medical Health Science and Technology Project （number， 202202104）］

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and underlying mechanism of the Wulao Qisun prescription on pathological new bone formation in ankylosing spondylitis （AS）. MethodsSynovial fibroblasts were isolated from the hip joints of AS patients and observed under a microscope to assess cell morphology. The cells were identified using immunofluorescence staining. The isolated AS fibroblasts were divided into blank group， low drug-containing serum group， medium drug-containing serum group， high drug-containing serum group， and positive drug group. After drug intervention， cell proliferation was measured using the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay to observe fibroblast growth and determine the optimal intervention time. Alkaline phosphatase （ALP） activity was measured using the alkaline phosphatase assay. Protein expression of osteocalcin （OCN）， osteopontin （OPN）， and runt-related transcription factor 2 （Runx2） was detected by Western blot. The mRNA expression levels of Wnt5a， β-catenin， and Dickkopf-1 （DKK-1） were measured by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultsCompared with the blank group， each drug-containing serum group of Wulao Qisun prescription and the positive drug group inhibited the proliferation of AS fibroblasts and reduced ALP expression （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the low drug-containing serum group of Wulao Qisun prescription downregulated β-catenin mRNA expression （P<0.05）. The medium and high drug-containing serum groups and the positive drug group significantly downregulated Wnt5a and β-catenin mRNA expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with the positive drug group showing the most pronounced effect （P<0.01）. The high drug-containing serum group and the positive drug group significantly upregulated DKK-1 mRNA expression （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the low drug-containing serum group of Wulao Qisun prescription inhibited the expression of OPN and Runx2 proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while the medium and high drug-containing serum groups and the positive drug group inhibited the expression of OCN， OPN， and Runx2 proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe Wulao Qisun prescription can inhibit the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of AS fibroblasts， thereby delaying the formation of pathological new bone in AS. The possible mechanism involves the regulation of Wnt/β-catenin-related gene expression， further inhibiting the transcription of downstream target genes.

Ankylosing spondylitis （AS） is an inflammatory autoimmune disease with chronic low back pain as the main clinical manifestation， which mainly affects the axial joints， peripheral joints and various organs. In severe cases， the spine is stiff or deformed， which affects the quality of life and health of patients. The pathogenic factors of AS are complex， which are related to heredity， immunity and intestinal flora. The pathogenesis of AS is not clear yet. Among them， inflammatory reaction， bone destruction and heterotopic ossification are the main pathological features of AS， which play an important role in the disease process of AS. Traditional Chinese medicine has multi-target， multi-channel and multi-component pharmacological effects， which can prevent and treat AS by anti-inflammation， inhibiting bone destruction and preventing heterotopic ossification， and the clinical effect is remarkable， but there is no relevant literature report. Therefore， this review expounds the relationship between inflammatory reaction， bone destruction and heterotopic ossification and the occurrence and development of AS， and summarizes the latest research reports of traditional Chinese medicine in treating AS from anti-inflammatory， inhibiting bone destruction and preventing heterotopic ossification， aiming at providing reference and new ideas and directions for further research on the prevention and treatment of AS by traditional Chinese medicine.
