Aim To investigate the effect of KHSRP on the malignant biological behavior of gastric cardia ade-nocarcinoma by targeting JAK1/STAT3 signaling axis.Methods The expression levels of KHSRP in adeno-carcinoma tissues of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma and adjacent tissues were collected and compared.qRT-PCR experiment to detect transfection efficiency in gas-tric cardia adenocarcinoma cell lines(OE-19,TE-7,BIC-1,FLO-1,SK-GT-4,BE-3)and normal gastric mucosal epithelial cell line(GES-1).The knockdown and overexpression of KHSRP were treated by packa-ging lentiviral Vector,and the cells were divided into sh-NC group,sh-KHSRP group,vector group,and KH-SRP group.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)and Tran-swell assay were used to determine the effects of KH-SRP on the proliferation,migration and invasion of ade-nocarcinoma cells of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma.Xenograft tumor models were used to detect the effects of knockdown and overexpression of KHSRP in live an-imals.WB experiments confirmed that KHSRP targeted the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.Results KHSRP was overexpressed in GCA tissues and cell lines(P＜0.05).Cell function assay analysis showed that KH-SRP overexpression significantly promoted GCA cell proliferation,migration and invasion in vitro(P＜0.05).After KHSRP knockdown,the phosphorylation levels of JAK1 and STAT3 in JAK/STAT signaling pathway were significantly decreased,and the situation was opposite after KHSRP overexpression(P＜0.05).Conclusion KHSRP regulates the malignant progres-sion of metastasis of gastric cardia adenocarcinoma by activating JAK1/STAT3 signaling axis.

Endometriosis(EMs)is a common estrogen-depend-ent clinical disease with the pathological characteristics of malig-nant tumors,which has great impact on women's physical and mental health.In recent years,experimental exploration has re-vealed that ectopic foci are in a hypoxic environment outside the uterine cavity,and mitochondria,as the"functional factories"of the cells,play an important role in the process of planting and in-vasion,and the mitochondrial quality control system,which in-cludes mitochondrial oxidative stress,kinetics,autophagy,bio-genesis and calcium homeostasis,is a key mechanism for the e-quilibrium of the mitochondrial function.The mitochondrial quality control system,including mitochondrial oxidative stress kinetics,autophagy,biogenesis and calcium homeostasis,is a key mechanism for mitochondrial functional balance.Therefore,to clarify the role of the mitochondrial quality control system in the development of EMs with the help of rational and rigorous experi-mental and clinical studies can not only help to clarify the patho-genesis of the disease,but also explore the key targets in the prevention and treatment of the disease.Therefore,this article summarizes the research progress of mitochondrial quality control system in endometriosis,with a view to providing reference and theoretical basis for the etiology,pathogenesis and prevention strategies of EMs.

Aim To investigate the intestinal protection and possible mechanism of magnolol(MG)in newborn rats with necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC).Methods The rats were randomly divided into control group(Ctrl group),model group(NEC group)and treatment group(MG group).The NEC model was induced by hypoxia,cold stimulation,deep formula milk and LPS intragastric administration in 7-day-old rats for four days.They were killed after five days of treatment with MG(20 mg·kg-1).HE staining was used to observe the intestinal pathological injury.Western blot was used to detect the expressions of IL-1 β,TNF-α,NL-RP3,ASC,caspase-1 and tight junction protein in the distal ileum of rats.Colon contents were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing to understand the gut microbio-ta.Results MG improved the body mass and intesti-nal injury of NEC neonatal rats.The expressions of in-testinal IL-1β,TNF-α,NLRP3,ASC and caspase-1 proteins were down-regulated,and the expressions of Claudin,Occludin and ZO-1 proteins were up-regula-ted.16S rDNA showed that MG increased the diversity of intestinal flora,and at the phylum level,MG in-creased the abundance of firmicutes and bacteroides in NEC model,and decreased the abundance of pro-teobacteria.At the genus level,MG treatment in-creased the abundance of Lactobacillus,unclassified_Muribaculaceae,Racteroides,but decreased the abun-dance of Escherichia_Shigella,Rodentibacter and Fuso-bacterium.Conclusion MG intervention can protect the intestinal tract of NEC rats by potentially improving barrier function,and regulating the intestinal microbiota through the NLRP3/ASC/caspase-1 signaling pathway.

Objective To propose a novel identification algorithm based on ensemble learning for assessing the severity of acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)to achieve continuous monitoring of the disease severity.Methods Firstly,leve-raging the open-source MIMIC-Ⅳ database,a variety of non-invasive physiological parameters of patients were extracted and subjected to preliminary preprocessing.A multivariate feature selection algorithm was employed to rank these parameters and calculate feature importance scores through weighted computation.Secondly,based on the feature importance scores,a subset search algorithm was utilized to identify the subset of features that could yield optimal performance across four machine learning algorithms:neural networks,logistic regression,AdaBoost and XGBoost.Finally,a soft voting ensemble method was designed using a generalized linear regression model to integrate the results of each single machine learning algorithm,and a multivariate ensemble learning algorithm was proposed by combining the optimal feature subsets.The algorithm proposed when used to identify the severity of ADRS was evaluated with MIMIC-Ⅳ database,and compared with the traditional algorithms.Results The sensitivity,specificity,accuracy and AUC of the algorithm were 87.15％,89.23％,88.34％and 0.923 4,respectively,all of which outperformed those of the traditional algorithms.Conclusion The ARDS severity identification algorithm based on ensemble learning is capable of achieving continuous and real-time monitoring of the severity of ARDS,thereby offering robust support for the early identification and warning of ARDS in patients.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(2):1-9]
