ObjectiveTo investigate the influence of histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) on the occurrence, development of psoriasis-like inflammation in mice, and the relative immune mechanisms. MethodsHealthy C57BL/6 mice aged 6-8 weeks were selected and randomly divided into 3 groups: control group (Control), psoriasis model group (IMQ), and HDAC3 inhibitor RGFP966-treated psoriasis model group (IMQ+RGFP966). One day prior to the experiment, the back hair of the mice was shaved. After a one-day stabilization period, the mice in Control group was treated with an equal amount of vaseline, while the mice in IMQ group was treated with imiquimod (62.5 mg/d) applied topically on the back to establish a psoriasis-like inflammation model. The mice in IMQ+RGFP966 group received intervention with a high dose of the HDAC3-selective inhibitor RGFP966 (30 mg/kg) based on the psoriasis-like model. All groups were treated continuously for 5 d, during which psoriasis-like inflammation symptoms (scaling, erythema, skin thickness), body weight, and mental status were observed and recorded, with photographs taken for documentation. After euthanasia, hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to assess the effect of RGFP966 on the skin tissue structure of the mice, and skin thickness was measured. The mRNA and protein expression levels of HDAC3 in skin tissues were detected using reverse transcription real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) and Western blot (WB), respectively. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze neutrophils in peripheral blood and lymph nodes, CD4⁺ T lymphocytes, CD8⁺ T lymphocytes in peripheral blood, and IL-17A secretion by peripheral blood CD4⁺ T lymphocytes. Additionally, spleen CD4⁺ T lymphocyte expression of HDAC3, CCR6, CCR8, and IL-17A secretion levels were analyzed. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the localization and expression levels of HDAC3, IL-17A, and IL-10 in skin tissues. ResultsCompared with the Control group, the IMQ group exhibited significant psoriasis-like inflammation, characterized by erythema, scaling, and skin wrinkling. Compared with the IMQ group, RGFP966 exacerbated psoriasis-like inflammatory symptoms, leading to increased hyperkeratosis. The psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) skin symptom scores were higher in the IMQ group than those in the Control group, and the scores were further elevated in the IMQ+RGFP966 group compared to the IMQ group. Skin thickness measurements showed a trend of IMQ+RGFP966>IMQ>Control. The numbers of neutrophils in the blood and lymph nodes increased sequentially in the Control, IMQ, and IMQ+RGFP966 groups, with a similar trend observed for CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T lymphocytes in the blood. In skin tissues, compared with the Control group, the mRNA and protein levels of HDAC3 decreased in the IMQ group, but RGFP966 did not further reduce these expressions. HDAC3 was primarily located in the nucleus. Compared with the Control group, the nuclear HDAC3 content decreased in the skin tissues of the IMQ group, and RGFP966 further reduced nuclear HDAC3. Compared with the Control and IMQ groups, RGFP966 treatment decreased HDAC3 expression in splenic CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells. RGFP966 treatment increased the expression of CCR6 and CCR8 in splenic CD4⁺ T cells and enhanced IL-17A secretion by peripheral blood and splenic CD4⁺ T lymphocytes. Additionally, compared with the IMQ group, RGFP966 reduced IL-10 protein levels and upregulated IL-17A expression in skin tissues. ConclusionRGFP966 exacerbates psoriatic-like inflammatory responses by inhibiting HDAC3, increasing the secretion of the cytokine IL-17A, and upregulating the expression of chemokines CCR8 and CCR6.

Premature ejaculation refers to a sexual dysfunction in which men experience a short intravaginal ejaculation latency and a lack of control over ejaculation during sexual activity. The onset of this condition is often accompanied by anxiety and depression, which can seriously affect the quality of the patient′s sexual life and the relationship between partners. Based on the "integration of body and spirit" theory in traditional Chinese medicine, our team believes that this condition is a comorbidity of physical and spiritual factors. We propose that the core pathogenesis of this disease lies in the "loss of form and essence, impairment of spirit, and depression of the mind, "while the primary treatment principle involves "nourishing form and regulating spirit." As a result, a new diagnosis and treatment approach of "four-dimensional integration" is summarized in this study. The disease is treated through the four dimensions of shape, body, spirit, and emotion. Traditional Chinese medicine is used to adjust the shape in cases where the physical form is damaged. For individuals with depression of heart and liver qi, the treatment focuses on soothing the heart and smoothing liver qi, and the modified Wangyou Powder and Xuanzhi Decoction is used. In cases where the heart and kidney function are compromised, the treatment involves nourishing both the heart and kidney while restoring interaction between the heart and the kidney, and modified Jihuo Yansi Elixir is used. To reduce the sensitivity of the glans penis, the patient′s body is washed with a traditional Chinese medicine formula, and a delicate fumigation formula is decocted for external washing. For those who are not in tune with their god, psychological counseling can be used to regulate their spirit and advocate "self-partner" and psychotherapy. If there are issues with intimacy, partners should focus on cooperating during foreplay, sexual intercourse, and post-coital interactions. Overall, the treatment aims to harmonize the body and spirit, addressing both physical and psychological factors through a comprehensive, multi-dimensional approach. This method provides new perspectives and ideas for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of this condition.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of blue light on emmetropization in guinea pigs， explore the potential mechanisms and assess its application in myopia prevention and control. MethodsThree-week-old male guinea pigs （n=20） were randomly assigned to the white light group and the blue light group. Refraction and ocular biological parameters were measured every 2 weeks until the experiment ended at week 8. And the 4D-data-independent acquisition （4D-DIA） proteomics technology was used to analyze retina from both the blue light and white light groups， exploring protein composition， expression differences， and biological functions. ResultsAfter 2 weeks， Guinea pigs exposed to white light gradually tended towards emmetropia， showing a statistically significant difference in refractive error compared to the blue light group （P<0.001）. From week 4， the axial length of the blue light group was significantly shorter than that of the white light group （P<0.05）. Meanwhile， the vitreous chamber length in the blue light group was significantly smaller than that of the white light group from week 2 （P<0.05）. A total of 161 differentially expressed proteins were identified by proteomics technology in the retina， with 98 proteins upregulated and 63 proteins downregulated. These proteins were primarily enriched in biosynthetic pathways such as vesicle transport， redox reaction， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism and NAD+ metabolism. ConclusionsGuinea pigs raised under blue light exhibit hyperopic drift and slowed axial elongation， which slows the procession of emmetropization. Based on the 4D-DIA technology， the differentially expressed proteins between the blue light and white light groups are primarily involved in NAD+ metabolism， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism. Especially in NAD+ salvage synthesis， nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase （NAMPT） is upregulated， while sirtuin 2 （SIRT2） is downregulated. It provides new insights into the mechanism of blue light in emmetropization and a theoretical basis for myopia prevention and control.

Objective To systematically evaluate the risk factors for persistent cough after lung resection, providing a theoretical basis for preventing persistent postoperative cough. Methods The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, EMbase, PubMed, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang, CNKI, and VIP databases were searched for studies related to risk factors for persistent cough after lung resection. The search period was from database inception to March 30, 2023. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and performed quality assessment. RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 17 articles with 3 698 patients were included. Meta-analysis results showed that females [OR=3.10, 95%CI (1.99, 4.81), P<0.001], age [OR=1.72, 95%CI (1.33, 2.21), P<0.001], right-sided lung surgery [OR=2.36, 95%CI (1.80, 3.10), P<0.001], lobectomy [OR=3.40, 95%CI (2.47, 4.68), P<0.001], upper lobectomy [OR=8.19, 95%CI (3.87, 17.36), P<0.001], lymph node dissection [OR=3.59, 95%CI (2.72, 4.72), P<0.001], bronchial stump closure method [OR=5.19, 95%CI (1.79, 16.07), P=0.002], and postoperative gastric acid reflux [OR=6.24, 95%CI (3.27, 11.91), P<0.001] were risk factors for persistent cough after lung resection, while smoking history was a protective factor against postoperative cough [OR=0.59, 95%CI (0.45, 0.77), P<0.001]. In addition, the quality of life score of patients with postoperative cough decreased compared with that before surgery [MD=1.50, 95%CI (0.14, 2.86), P=0.03]. Conclusion Current evidence suggests that females, age, right-sided lung surgery, lobectomy, upper lobectomy, lymph node dissection, bronchial stump closure method (stapler closure), and postoperative gastric acid reflux are independent risk factors for persistent postoperative cough in lung resection patients, while smoking history may be a protective factor against postoperative cough. This provides evidence-based information for clinical medical staff on how to prevent and reduce persistent postoperative cough in patients and improve their quality of life in the future.

Objective To investigate the prognosis and satisfaction of the R2 intervention procedure and develop related predictive models. Methods The clinical data of 64 patients with primary craniofacial hyperhidrosis who underwent R2 intervention surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from November 2018 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. By statistically analyzing the risk factors for compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH) and satisfaction, and conducting feature screening, a relevant prediction model was established. Results Finally, 51 patients were collected, including 43 (84.3%) males and 8 (15.7%) females, with an average age of (30.27±7.22) years. Overall postoperative satisfaction was high, with only 5.9% of patients expressing regret about the surgery. However, 92.2% of patients experienced CH. The onset of postoperative CH was most prominent within the first 3 months postoperatively, with the incidence rate stabilizing thereafter. Preoperative heart rate and R2 sympathetic nerve clipping were identified as independent risk factors for severe CH. The preoperative body mass index, the degree of sweating in the chest and abdomen, are significantly correlated with postoperative satisfaction. Conclusion The R2 intervention surgery effectively alleviates the symptoms of primary craniofacial hyperhidrosis, and patient satisfaction is high.

Aim To investigate the effects of L-argi-nine on spontaneous contraction of rat colon and the relative mechanisms.Methods An organ bath system was use to measure the spontaneous contraction of both longitudinal smooth muscle strips(LMS)and circular muscle strips(CMS).Whole-cell voltage-clamp tech-niques were applied to observe the alterations in cur-rents of L-type voltage-dependent Ca2+channels(VD-CCs),and voltage-gated K+channel(Kv)in single smooth muscle cells(SMCs)from rat colon.Results L-Arginine(1 mmol·L-1)significantly enhanced the spontaneous contraction of both LMS and CMS.The excitatory response to L-arginine was remarkably attenuated by tetrodotoxin(1 mmol·L-1)and atro-pine(1 mmol·L-1),antagonist of muscarinic ACh receptor(mAChR).However,the inhibitor of nitric oxide(NO)synthesis L-NNA(1 mmol·L-1)failed to block the action of L-Arginine.Furthermore,whole-cell patch-clamp recordings showed that L-arginine ac-tivated VDCCs and inhibited Kv channels on SMCs.Conclusions L-Arginine exerts an excitatory effect on colonic motility in a nitric oxide(NO)-independent manner and the stimulatory action of L-arginine is part-ly mediated by mAChR.In addition,VDCCs and Kv channels are both involved in L-arginine-induced exci-tation.

Aim To study the effect of salidroside combined with rosavin on ischemic stroke in rats.Methods The model of MCAO was established by u-sing thread-embolic method.The rats were divided into the sham group,MCAO group,salidroside combined with rosavin group,positive control group,and the drug was given continuously for seven days.The infarct volume was measured by MRI and neurological deficit score was evaluated by Zea-Longa.The levels of Ne-uN,BDNF,TGF-β1,p-Smad were observed by West-ern blot and immunofluorescence staining.The expres-sions of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 were performed by RT-qPCR/ELISA.The primary cortical neurons were isolated,OGD/R inducted,divided into the normal group,OGD/R group,salidroside combined with rosa-vin group,and TGF-β1 inhibitor+salidroside com-bined with rosavin group,the drug was given for 24 hours,and the expressions of NeuN,BDNF,IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 were measured.Results Salidroside combined with rosavin could decrease the infarct vol-ume,improve the neurological function,promote the levels of Neun,BDNF,TGF-β1,p-Smad,and inhibit the expressions of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6.Salidroside combined with rosavin could promote NeuN,BDNF,inhibit IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6 in primary nerve cells in-duced by OGD/R,and these effects were blocked by TGF-β1 inhibitor.Conclusions Salidroside combined with rosavin has neuroprotective effects on MCAO rats,and primary neurons are induced by OGD/R,and these effects are closely related to the TGF-β pathway.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of oblique lumbar interbody fusion(OLIF)combined with poste-rior percutaneous internal fixation in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis with or without redundant nerve roots(RNRs).Meth-ods A retrospective analysis of 92 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis treated by oblique lateral lumbar interbody fusion com-bined with posterior percutaneous internal fixation from June 2019 to June 2022 was performed.There were 32 males and 60 females,aged from 44 to 82 years old with an average of(63.67±9.93)years old.All patients were divided into RNRs positive group and RNRs negative group according to redundancy or not before operation.There were 38 patients in RNRs positive group,including 15 males and 23 females.The age ranged from 45 to 82 years old with an average of(65.45±10.37)years old.The disease duration was 24.00(12.00,72.00)months.There were 54 patients in RNRs negative group,including 17 males and 37 females.The age ranged from 44 to 77 years old with an average of(62.42±9.51)years old.The disease duration was 13.50(9.00,36.00)months.The general data of patients were recorded,including operation time,intraoperative blood loss and complications.The imaging parameters before and after operation were observed,including the number of stenosis segments,intervertebral space height,lumbar lordosis angle and dural sac area.The visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to evaluate the back and lower extremity pain,and the Oswestry disability index(ODI)was used to evaluate the activities of daily living.Results All patients were followed up for 8 to 18 months with an average of(11.04±3.61)months,and no complications were found during the follow-up period.The number of stenosis segments in RNRs positive group(1.71±0.46)was more than that in RNRs negative group(1.17±0.38).In RNRs positive group,intervertebral space height,dural sac area,low back pain VAS,lower extremity pain VAS,ODI score were(1.11±0.19)cm,(0.46±0.17)cm2,(5.39±1.00)scores,(5.05±1.01)points,(55.74±4.05)points,respectively.RNRs negative groups respectively(0.97±0.23)cm,(0.69±0.26)cm2,(4.50±0.77)scores,(4.00±0.58)scores,(47.33±3.43)％.In RNRs positive group,intervertebral space height,dural sac area,low back pain VAS,leg pain VAS,ODI score were(1.60±0.19)cm,(0.74±0.36)cm2,(3.39±0.72)scores,(3.05±1.01)scores,(46.74±4.82)scores,respectively.RNRs negative groups respectively(1.48±0.25)cm,(1.12±0.35)cm2,(3.00±0.82)scores,(3.00±0.82)scores,(37.67±3.58)％.The postoperative intervertebral space height,dural sac area,low back pain VAS score,lower extremity pain VAS and ODI score of the patients in the RNRs positive group and the negative group were signifi-cantly improved compared with those before operation,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the number of stenosed segments,preoperative intervertebral space height,dural sac area,low back pain VAS,lower extremity pain VAS,and ODI between the two groups(P＜0.05).There were significant differences in postoperative intervertebral space height and postoperative ODI between the two groups(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference in intervertebral space height before and after operation and ODI score before and after operation(P＞0.05).There were significant differences in operation time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative dural sac area,difference of dural sac area before and after operation,postoperative low back pain VAS,difference of low back pain VAS score before and after oper-ation,difference of lower extremity pain VAS before and after operation between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion OLIF combined with posterior percutaneous internal fixation has a good effect on patients with or without RNRs.Multi-segmental lumbar spinal stenosis and decreased dural sac area may lead to the occurrence of RNRs,and LSS patients with RNRs have more severe symptoms.LSS patients with RNRs have worse surgical outcomes than those without RNRs.

Objective To summarize the reasons and management strategies of reoperation after oblique lateral interbody fusion(OLIF),and put forward preventive measures.Methods From October 2015 to December 2019,23 patients who under-went reoperation after OLIF in four spine surgery centers were retrospectively analyzed.There were 9 males and 14 females with an average age of(61.89±8.80)years old ranging from 44 to 81 years old.The index diagnosis was degenerative lumbar intervertebral dics diseases in 3 cases,discogenie low back pain in 1 case,degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis in 6 cases,lumbar spinal stenosis in 9 cases and degenerative lumbar spinal kyphoscoliosis in 4 cases.Sixteen patients were primarily treated with Stand-alone OLIF procedures and 7 cases were primarily treated with OLIF combined with posterior pedicle screw fixation.There were 17 cases of single fusion segment,2 of 2 fusion segments,4 of 3 fusion segments.All the cases underwent reoperation within 3 months after the initial surgery.The strategies of reoperation included supplementary posterior pedicle screw instrumentation in 16 cases;posterior laminectomy,cage adjustment and neurolysis in 2 cases,arthroplasty and neuroly-sis under endoscope in 1 case,posterior laminectomy and neurolysis in 1 case,pedicle screw adjustment in 1 case,exploration and decompression under percutaneous endoscopic in 1 case,interbody fusion cage and pedicle screw revision in 1 case.Visu-al analogue scale(VAS)and Oswestry disability index(ODI)index were used to evaluate and compare the recovery of low back pain and lumbar function before reoperation and at the last follow-up.During the follow-up process,the phenomenon of fusion cage settlement or re-displacement,as well as the condition of intervertebral fusion,were observed.The changes in in-tervertebral space height before the first operation,after the first operation,before the second operation,3 to 5 days after the second operation,6 months after the second operation,and at the latest follow-up were measured and compared.Results There was no skin necrosis and infection.All patients were followed up from 12 to 48 months with an average of(28.1±7.3)months.Nerve root injury symptoms were relieved within 3 to 6 months.No cage transverse shifting and no dislodgement,loosening or breakage of the instrumentation was observed in any patient during the follow-up period.Though the intervertebral disc height was obviously increased at the first postoperative,there was a rapid loss in the early stage,and still partially lost after reopera-tion.The VAS for back pain recovered from(6.20±1.69)points preoperatively to(1.60±0.71)points postoperatively(P＜0.05).The ODI recovered from(40.60±7.01)％preoperatively to(9.14±2.66)％postoperatively(P＜0.05).Conclusion There is a risk of reoperation due to failure after OLIF surgery.The reasons for reoperation include preoperative bone loss or osteoporosis the initial surgery was performed by Stand-alone,intraoperative endplate injury,significant subsidence of the fusion cage after surgery,postoperative fusion cage displacement,nerve damage,etc.As long as it is discovered in a timely manner and handled properly,further surgery after OLIF surgery can achieve better clinical results,but prevention still needs to be strengthened.

The purpose of this study was to identify the tick species native to Xindi Township,Yumin County,Xinjiang,China.Preliminary morphological identification of parasitic ticks collected from animals in the area was conducted with an ultra-depth of field three-dimensional VHX 600 digital stereo microscope.Total DNA of the ticks was extracted,amplified by PCR based on the COI and ITS2 gene loci,and the posi-tive PCR products were sequenced.The sequence were a-ligned with reference sequences from the NCBI database were aligned with the Basic Local Alignment Search Tool.A genet-ic phylogenetic tree was generated with the neighbor-joining method of MEGA 7.0 software to determine the evolutionary biological characteristics of ticks.Morphological identification showed that the ticks collected from Xindi Township of Yu-min County were consistent with the characteristics of Hya-lomma asiaticum.An evolutionary tree based on the COI and ITS2 gene sequences showed that the ticks collected in this study were clustered with known H.asiaticum sequences.The PCR products of COI and ITS2 were sequenced and compared,which confirmed that the collected tick species were H.asiaticum,in agreement with the morphological and molecular biological results.These findings help to clarify the distribution of ticks in Xindi Township of Xinjiang,and provide basic data for the analysis of tick genetic and evolutionary characteristics,as reference for surveillance and control of ticks in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region.
