ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of jatrorrhizine on endogenous metabolites and metabolic pathways in the mouse model of ulcerative colitis. MethodsThirty male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into the normal group， the model group， the low-dose and high-dose jatrorrhizine groups （0.04， 0.16 g·kg^-1）， and the mesalazine group （0.52 g·kg^-1）The mouse model of ulcerative colitis was established with 3% dextran sulfate sodium （DSS） and treated with different doses of jatrorrhizine by gavage. The changes in body weight， colon length， disease activity index （DAI）， and colonic histopathology were analyzed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of jatrorrhizine. UPLC-Q-TOF/MS was employed to determine the serum and fecal levels of metabolites in mice. Metabolomics methods were used to screen the differential metabolites， on the basis of which the potential therapeutic mechanism of jatrorrhizine on DSS-induced ulcerative colitis in mice was investigated. ResultsAfter intervention with jatrorrhizine， the model mice showed significantly decreased DAI（P<0.05，P<0.01）， recovered colon length，（P<0.05，P<0.01） and alleviated histopathology of the colon. The metabolomics study screened out 13 differential metabolites in the serum and 8 differential metabolites in the feces. The pathway enrichment analysis predicted three potential metabolic pathways： Biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids， phenylalanine， tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis， and phenylalanine metabolism. ConclusionJatrorrhizine may treat ulcerative colitis by regulating the biosynthesis and metabolism of amino acids and the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） is a chronic respiratory disease that poses a significant threat to global health， exhibiting high morbidity， disability and mortality rate， with its prevention and treatment situation becoming increasingly critical. The pathogenesis of COPD is complex， and the underlying cellular and molecular biological mechanisms remain incompletely elucidated. Programmed cell death （PCD） is the process wherein cells actively undergo demise to maintain internal environmental stability in response to certain signals or specific stimuli. Contemporary medical research indicates that the dysregulation of PCD patterns such as apoptosis， necroptosis， pyroptosis， autophagy， and ferroptosis is closely related to the onset and progression of COPD. Clarifying the molecular mechanisms of PCD in COPD may provide novel perspectives for in-depth understanding and prevention of the disease. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is characterized by holistic regulation. In recent years， extensive research has been conducted in the TCM field focusing on modulating apoptosis， necroptosis， pyroptosis， autophagy， and ferroptosis for the treatment of COPD， yielding remarkable achievements. Therefore， this study systematically explored the molecular mechanism of PCD in COPD and reviewed the potential mechanisms and intervention status of TCM targeting PCD in COPD， aiming to provide insights and references for the clinical prevention， treatment and in-depth research of COPD.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignancy. Approximately 50% to 60% of patients with OSCC are diagnosed at a locally advanced stage (clinical staging III-IVa). Even with comprehensive and sequential treatment primarily based on surgery, the 5-year overall survival rate remains below 50%, and patients often suffer from postoperative functional impairments such as difficulties with speaking and swallowing. Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC and have shown encouraging efficacy. However, clinical practice still faces key challenges, including the definition of indications, optimization of combination regimens, and standards for efficacy evaluation. Based on the latest research advances worldwide and the clinical experience of the expert group, this expert consensus systematically evaluates the application of PD-1 inhibitors in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC, covering combination strategies, treatment cycles and surgical timing, efficacy assessment, use of biomarkers, management of special populations and immune related adverse events, principles for immunotherapy rechallenge, and function preservation strategies. After multiple rounds of panel discussion and through anonymous voting using the Delphi method, the following consensus statements have been formulated: 1) Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors can be used preoperatively in patients with locally advanced OSCC. The preferred regimen is a PD-1 inhibitor combined with platinum based chemotherapy, administered for 2-3 cycles. 2) During the efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy, radiographic assessment should follow the dual criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and immune RECIST (iRECIST). After surgery, systematic pathological evaluation of both the primary lesion and regional lymph nodes is required. For combination chemotherapy regimens, PD-L1 expression and combined positive score need not be used as mandatory inclusion or exclusion criteria. 3) For special populations such as the elderly (≥ 70 years), individuals with stable HIV viral load, and carriers of chronic HBV/HCV, PD-1 inhibitors may be used cautiously under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), with close monitoring for adverse events. 4) For patients with a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy, continuation of the original treatment regimen is not recommended; the subsequent treatment plan should be adjusted promptly after MDT assessment. Organ transplant recipients and patients with active autoimmune diseases are not recommended to receive neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy due to the high risk of immune related activation. Rechallenge is generally not advised for patients who have experienced high risk immune related adverse events such as immune mediated myocarditis, neurotoxicity, or pneumonitis. 5) For patients with a good pathological response, individualized de escalation surgery and function preservation strategies can be explored. This consensus aims to promote the standardized, safe, and precise application of neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor strategies in the management of locally advanced OSCC patients.

Objective: To investigate the factors influencing the co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia, so as to provide a data foundation and theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention measures. Methods: In September and October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 139 102 students from 539 schools across 12 leagues/cities and 103 banners/counties in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Participants who were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis by a doctor at least once within one year and had a body mass index ≥ 28 kg/m 2 were considered to have comorbid conditions. Results: The coprevalence rate of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia was 6.4% (8 931 cases). Lasso-Logistic regression revealed that nonboarding status, higher maternal education, consuming high protein foods ≥1 time daily, occasionally or never eating breakfast, engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activity for ≥60 minutes on fewer than half of holidays, and having been exposed to second hand smoke in person within the past seven days were associated with higher odds ratios for co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity( OR = 1.23 , 1.22-1.63, 1.20, 1.19, 1.38, 1.35); being female, higher grade level, residence in flag/county/district areas, non only child status, never having consumed a full glass of alcohol, non hypertensive status, and households without pets were associated with lower co-prevalence risks ( OR =0.65, 0.67-0.77, 0.81, 0.87, 0.73, 0.41, 0.68) (all P <0.05). The ROC curve indicated an area under the curve of 0.64 for the predictive model, demonstrating satisfactory discriminatory ability. The calibration curve showed consistency between predicted and actual occurrence probabilities. Conclusions The co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia is closely associated with demographic characteristics, dietary behaviours, and lifestyle habits. Future prevention and control strategies should prioritize these factors to implement targeted interventions.

Objective To evaluate the value of left ventricular(LV)systolic function impairment in patients with different activity levels of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)by applying automatic myocardial motion quantification(aCMQ)technique,and to explore the correlation between left ventricular strain parameters and clinical laboratory indexes,systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index(SLEDAI).Methods A total of 80 patients diagnosed with SLE from November 2023 to August 2024 in the First Afticiated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University were selected and divided into two groups:40 cases with SLEDAI＜10points were in mild lupus group,34 cases with SLEDAI ≥ 10points were in moderately severe lupus group.Forty healthy volunteers for physical examination at the same time were randomly selected as control group,relevant parameters were obtained by conventional echocardiography and aCMQ technique respectively.Results aCMQ technique related parameters were compared,and the differences in left ventricular global longitudinal strain(LVGLS),apical two-chamber longitudinal strain(AP2LS),apical three-chamber longitudinal strain(AP3LS),and apical four-chamber longitudinal strain(AP4LS)were statistically significant in all three groups(P＜0.05).The differences in left ventricular global circumferential strain(LVGCS)in lupus moderate-severe group were statistically significant when compared with other two groups(P＜0.05),Pearson correlation analysis showed LVGLS,AP2LS,AP3LS,AP4LS and LVGCS were positively correlated with complement 3 and complement 4,and negatively correlated with anticardiolipin antibody(ACA)IgA,IgG,IgM,and sedimentation,and ultrasensitive C-reactive protein,and the SLEDAI was correlated with LVGLS,AP2LS,AP3LS,AP4LS were negatively correlated,and there was no significant correlation with LVGCS.Conclusion aCMQ technique can detect changes in LV systolic function in SLE patients at an early stage,and the impairment of LV systolic function is more severe with higher disease activity.Better correlation between LV strain parameters and clinical laboratory indexes and SLED AI may help to better assess cardiac involvement in SLE patients.

Objective To detect the adverse drug reaction(ADR)signals of tetracycline representative drugs(tetracy-cline,minocycline,tigecycline,and doxycycline)in children,and to provide reference for safe clinical medication.Methods A total of 34 quarters of ADE report data related to four tetracyclines from the first quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2023 in the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)were collected and grouped according to the age of minor children.The re-port odds ratio(ROR)method and the comprehensive standard method(MHRA)were used for signal mining.Results A to-tal of 367 461 reports were retrieved from the FAERS database for all minor children under 18 years old.There were 43,583,40 and 501 reports related to tetracycline,minocycline,tigecycline and doxycycline,respectively.A total of 280 ADE signals were de-tected after deduplication,involving 22 system organ classifications.Tetracycline was concentrated in the gastrointestinal system and various nervous systems.Minocycline was mainly in the hepatobiliary system,endocrine system,and subcutaneous and subcu-taneous tissue diseases.Tigecycline was involved in the gastrointestinal system,systemic diseases and various reactive diseases at the administration site,Doxycycline was concentrated in the gastrointestinal system,mental illness,skin and subcutaneous tissue diseases.And it was found that psychosis was not involved in adverse reactions.Adverse reactions not included in the instructions include blindness and papilledema caused by minocycline,hypertriglyceridemia and acute pancreatitis caused by tigecycline,Bell's palsy,growth retardation,blindness,depression,suicidal thoughts and anxiety caused by doxycycline.Conclusions In different age groups of minor children,there are some differences in ADR among the four tetracycline drugs.ADR should be strictly monitored when using tetracycline drugs in all children.While paying attention to the effects of these drugs on children's teeth and bones,other ADE should also be vigilant,such as Jarisch-Herxheimer reaction,acne,thyroiditis,headache.The newly discovered involvement of systemic organs and AE can provide a reference for improving the adverse reactions of tetracycline-representative drugs to ensure the treatment safety of patients.

Large inter-individual and intra-individual differences in the expression and activity of drug-metabolizing enzymes(DMEs)contribute to unpredictable drug response and toxicity,which is a challenge facing precision medicine.Nuclear receptor-mediated transcriptional regulation and epigenetic mechanisms including histone modifications,non-coding RNAs,and DNA methylation can help to explain the individual variability in DME expressions.However,several questions remain unanswered.Recently,epitranscriptomics,an emerging field,provides new insights into the regulation of gene expression.As the most abundant RNA modification in eukaryotes,N6-methyladenosine(m6A)modifi-cation plays key roles in various physiological and pathological processes.This review summarizes the recent progress in m6A modification-mediated individual variability in DME expression in terms of the role of m6A modification in regulating basal expression of DMEs,crosstalk between m6A modification and nuclear receptors during the ontogeny of DMEs,and the contribution of m6A modification to xenobi-otic exposure-mediated changes in DME expression.This review aims to provide data for the elucida-tion of individual variations in drug metabolism in clinic.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of different sterilization methods on 3D-printed polylactic acid(PLA)guide plates for orthopedic surgery,and to analyze their physical properties,microbial contamination,structural performance and bio compatibility after sterilization.METHODS PLA guide plates for orthopedic surgery were prepared with 3D printing technology and divided into a blank group,a hydrogen peroxide plasma steriliza-tion group,an ethylene oxide sterilization group and a pressure steam sterilization group.Before and after sterili-zation,the changes in volume and weight of the surgical guide plates were measured,microbial detection was con-ducted,structural changes were observed with a laser scanning confocal microscope,and cell co-culture was con-ducted to evaluate biocompatibility,thereby the effects of different sterilization methods were assessed.RESULTS The three sterilization methods had no significant effect on the volume and weight of PLA surgical guide plates.Microbial detection showed that all three sterilization methods were effective in killing bacteria,and bacte-rial cultures were negative.Laser confocal scanning microscopy revealed that sterilization treatment caused certain changes to the microstructure of the surgical guide plates,but high-temperature sterilization had a more pro-nounced effect on the deformation of the guide plate edges.Cell co-culture results indicated that the surgical guide plates treated with the three sterilization methods exhibited acceptable cytotoxicity and had little effect on cell pro-liferation.CONCLUSIONS All three sterilization methods cause microstructural changes to the surgical guide plate.Among them,pressure steam sterilization significantly deforms the structure of the guide plate,directly af-fecting its precise positioning of mutual spatial distances,angular relationships and orientation during surgery.Al-though hydrogen peroxide plasma sterilization does not cause significant deformation,ethylene oxide sterilization has the least impact on material properties and structural stability while ensuring the sterilization effect of PLA surgical guide plates.
