ObjectiveTo investigate the effect and mechanism of transplantation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell （hUC-MSC） with overexpression of the Numb gene in the treatment of cholestatic liver fibrosis （CLF）. MethodsThe technique of lentiviral transfection was used to induce the overexpression of the Numb gene in hUC-MSC （hUC-MSC^Numb-OE）， and hUC-MSC transfected with empty vector （hUC-MSC^OE-EV） was used as negative control. Bile duct ligation （BDL） was performed to establish a rat model of CLF， and then the rats were randomly divided into BDL group， hUC-MSC group， hUC-MSC^OE-EV group， and hUC-MSC^Numb-OE group， while a sham-operation group was also established. The rats in the intervention groups were given a single splenic injection of the corresponding cells after BDL， and samples were collected at the end of week 4. Related indicators were measured， including serum biochemistry， liver histopathology， the content of hydroxyproline （Hyp） in the liver， hepatic stellate cell activation， ductular reaction， liver regeneration， and the expression levels of key molecules in the Numb-p53 signaling axis. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the BDL group， the hUC-MSC group and the hUC-MSC^OE-EV group had significant reductions in the levels of serum biochemical parameters （aspartate aminotransferase， gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase， total bile acid， total bilirubin， and direct bilirubin）， liver fibrosis markers （the content of Hyp and the expression levels of alpha-smooth muscle actin， tumor necrosis factor-α， and transforming growth factor-beta 1）， and ductular reaction markers （the expression levels of CK7 and CK19） （all P <0.05）， and compared with the hUC-MSC^OE-EV group， the hUC-MSC^Numb-OE group had significantly greater improvements in the above indicators （all P <0.05）. In addition， compared with the hUC-MSC^OE-EV group， the hUC-MSC^Numb-OE group had significant improvements in the expression levels of liver regeneration-related markers （albumin and hepatocyte nuclear factor 4α） and the molecules associated with the Numb-p53 signaling axis （Numb， pNumb， Mdm2， and p53） （all P <0.05）. ConclusionOverexpression of the Numb gene can enhance the therapeutic effect of hUC-MSC on CLF， possibly by activating the Numb-PTB^L-p53-HNF4α axis， promoting the hepatic differentiation of hUC-MSCs and subsequently enhancing liver regeneration.

Objective:To investigate the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of brucellosis in Heilongjiang Province, Jilin Province and Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (hereafter referred to as the Hei-Ji-Meng province and region), and study the influencing factors of brucellosis incidence.Methods:Using a retrospective analysis method, the data of brucellosis incidence in 22 prefecture-level cities in the Hei-Ji-Meng province and region from 2014 to 2018, as well as the data of natural environmental factors (precipitation, temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, wind speed, vegetation index) and social environmental factors (livestock breeding, livestock and poultry meat production, cultivated land area) were collected and integrated. The spatial autocorrelation model and spatial Dubin model were used to analyze the spatial and temporal distribution rule of brucellosis and the impact of environmental factors on the incidence of brucellosis in prefecture-level cities.Results:From 2014 to 2018, the incidence of brucellosis in the Hei-Ji-Meng province and region was 18.77/100 000, among which the incidence in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region was 33.45/100 000, followed by Heilongjiang Province (13.67/100 000) and Jilin Province (6.57/100 000). Among all prefecture-level cities, the brucellosis incidence was relatively higher in Hinggan League of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (69.10/100 000). Except 2016, the brucellosis incidence in other years had a positive spatial correlation (global Moran's I > 0, P < 0.05). The high-high concentration aggregation pattern was mainly concentrated in Ulanqab City, Xilingol League, Chifeng City, Tongliao City, Hinggan League, Hohhot City, and Hulunbuir City of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Among the environmental factors related to brucellosis, cultivated land area and sheep breeding density had a positive effect on brucellosis incidence in the local area, with the effect intensity of 0.39 and 0.32, respectively ( P < 0.001). The average humidity from April to July had a negative effect on the brucellosis incidence in the local area, with the effect intensity of - 0.22 ( P = 0.023). The indirect effect of the number of pigs slaughtered on the brucellosis incidence in adjacent areas was the most significant, and the effect intensity was 2.15 ( P < 0.001). Conclusions:Among the Hei-Ji-Meng province and region, the annual average incidence rate of brucellosis in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region is relatively higher, and the high-high concentration areas are mainly concentrated in this region. Among the environmental factors, the cultivated land area, sheep breeding density, the average humidity from April to July and the number of pigs slaughtered have an impact on brucellosis incidence.

Objective:To explore the effects of peripheral nerve injury(PNI)on neuropathic pain(NP)and memo-ry function in mice,as well as the activation of neurons in the paraventricular nucleus(PVT)of the thalamus,so as to provide a basis for studying the relationship between NP and memory impairment.Methods:Twenty one 8-week-old male C57 BL/6J mice were randomly divided into sham group and experimental group,and the routine spared nerve inju-ry(SNI)was constructed in the mice of experimental group.The pain behavior and memory impairment of mice after SNI were evaluated with hot plate and eight-arm maze behavioral tests.Pearson correlation analysis was performed to an-alyze the correlation between pain behavior and memory impairment.The c-FOS expression in PVT was detected with immuno-staining.Results:Compared with the sham group,the heat pain threshold of mice in the experimental group was significantly reduced(P＜0.001).The results of the eight-arm maze test showed that the total rest time was signifi-cantly increased(P＜0.001),and the working memory error was increased from 1 to 4 days after SNI(P＜0.01).Correlation analysis indicated that early working memory errors were negatively correlated with heat pain threshold after SNI(P＜0.001).The immunofluorescence revealed that the number of c-FOS positive cells in PVT increased signifi-cantly(P＜0.001).Conclusion:SNI can cause abnormal pain behavior and memory impairment in mice,and cause neuronal activation in PVT.This study provides a basis for neurons in PVT to participate in the regulation of memory impairment in the context of NP.

Abstract The accelerated development of digital technology has brought new opportunities for the innovation of adolescent mental health service models. Through international case analysis, the paper finds that developed countries have established adolescent mental health service systems with significant digitalempowerment characteristics. For example, the Crisis Text Line of US realizes riskgraded responses by relying on language processing technology, the Kooth platform of UK develops an Artificial Intelligence (AI) counseling system using cognitivebehavioral therapy, ReachOut of Australia has established a digital mental health resource library, SPARX of New Zealand reshapes the treatment experience with a gamified interface, and "Annie Advisor" of Finland pioneers the application of affective computing technology. The above innovative practices present six characteristics: precision service supply based on big data, intervention systems integrated with artificial intelligence, anonymous mechanisms to ensure privacy and security, highly accessible services that break through time and space limitations, human-machine collaborative dual track support models, and interdisciplinary service systems, providing many references and implications for China to continuously and deeply explore digital technologyempowered youth mental health services.

BACKGROUND:The repair process of myocardial injury involves complex cellular and molecular mechanisms,especially mitochondrial calcium homeostasis,macrophage autophagy and pyroptosis pathways.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)has shown significant clinical efficacy in improving myocardial injury,but its mechanism of action needs to be thoroughly investigated. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the role of mitochondrial calcium homeostasis-mediated macrophage autophagy and pyroptosis pathways in myocardial injury,and to summarize the progress of TCM in this field. METHODS:A computerized search was performed for relevant literature from the database inception to March 2024 in the Web of Science,PubMed and CNKI.The search terms were"mitochondrial calcium homeostasis,macrophage autophagy,macrophage pyroptosis,traditional Chinese medicine,myocardial injury,myocardial injury reperfusion"in Chinese and English.Through literature review,we analyzed the relationship between mitochondrial calcium homeostasis and macrophage autophagy and pyroptosis,explored the mechanism of their roles in myocardial injury,and summarized the pathways of multi-targeted,multi-pathway effects of TCM. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The maintenance of mitochondrial calcium homeostasis has been found to be closely related to the normal function of cardiomyocytes.Macrophages can participate in the repair process of myocardial injury through autophagy and pyroptosis pathways.Autophagy contributes to cell clearance and regulation of inflammatory response,while pyroptosis affects myocardial repair by releasing inflammatory factors.TCM regulates mitochondrial calcium homeostasis and macrophage function through multiple mechanisms.For example,astragalosid regulates calcium homeostasis by lowering mitochondrial membrane potential and inhibiting cytochrome C,and epimedium glycoside plays a role in reducing β-amyloid deposition.In addition,herbal compounds and single drugs promote myocardial repair by activating or inhibiting specific signaling pathways,such as PI3K/AKT and nuclear factor-κB signaling pathways.Future studies should focus on the interactions between mitochondrial calcium homeostasis,autophagy and pyroptosis pathways,as well as how TCM can exert therapeutic effects through these pathways to provide new strategies and drugs for the treatment of myocardial injury.
