ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of 1，25（OH）₂D₃ on the level of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ （PPAR-γ） in the liver， the phenotype of hepatic macrophages， and liver inflammation in a rat model of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis （NASH）， as well as the mechanism of 1，25（OH）₂D₃ improving liver inflammation. MethodsAfter 1 week of adaptive feeding， 24 specific pathogen-free Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group ［choline-supplemented L-amino acid-defined （CSAA） diet］， normal+1，25（OH）₂D₃ group ［CSAA diet+1，25（OH）₂D₃］， model group ［choline-deficient L-amino acid-defined diet （CDAA） diet］， and model+1，25（OH）₂D₃ group ［CDAA diet+1，25（OH）₂D₃］， with 6 rats in each group. The dose of 1，25（OH）₂D₃ was 5 μg/kg for intraperitoneal injection twice a week for 12 weeks. The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST） and alanine aminotransferase （ALT） were measured， liver histopathology was observed， and SAF score was assessed. M1 hepatic macrophages and M2 hepatic macrophages were measured to analyze in the change in the phenotype of hepatic macrophages， and ELISA was used to measure the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-4 （IL-4）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10） in liver tissue， and qPCR was used to measure the mRNA level of PPAR-γ. The two-factor analysis of variance was use for comparison between groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison； the Pearson method was used for correlation analysis. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model rats with CDAA diet-induced NASH had significant increases in the serum levels of AST and ALT （P=0.019 and P<0.001）， the SAF score of liver histopathology （P<0.001）， the level of M1 hepatic macrophages （P<0.001）， and the ratio of M1 and M2 hepatic macrophages （P<0.001）， as well as a significant increase in the level of TNF-α （P<0.001） and a significant reduction in the level of IL-4 in liver tissue （P=0.025）. The 1，25（OH）₂D₃ group had significant reductions in the serum levels of ALT （P<0.001）， the SAF score of liver histopathology （P<0.001）， the level of M1 hepatic macrophages （P<0.001）， and the ratio of M1 and M2 hepatic macrophages （P=0.001）， the level of IL-1β （P<0.001） and a significant increase in the level of M2 hepatic macrophages （P=0.017）， the level of IL-10 （P=0.039）， the level of IL-4 （P<0.001）， the level of PPAR-γ （P=0.016）. There were significant interactions between CDAA diet-induced NASH model and 1，25（OH）₂D₃ in serum the levels of AST and ALT （P=0.007 and P=0.008）， the SAF scores of liver histopathology （P<0.001）， the level of M1 hepatic macrophages （P<0.001）， the level of M2 hepatic macrophages （P=0.008）， the ratio of M1 and M2 of hepatic macrophages （P=0.005）， the level of TNF-α （P<0.001）， the level of IL-10 （P=0.038）， the level of IL-4 （P<0.001） and the level of PPAR-γ （P=0.009）. The correlation analysis showed that PPAR-γ was negatively correlated with the ratio of M1 and M2 hepatic macrophages （r=-0.415， P=0.044） and was positively correlated with M2 hepatic macrophages （r=0.435， P=0.033）， IL-10 （r=0.433， P=0.035）， and IL-4 （r=0.532， P=0.007）. ConclusionThis study shows that 1，25（OH）₂D₃ improves liver inflammation in NASH by activating PPAR-γ to regulate the phenotypic transformation of hepatic macrophages.

Recently, there has been an increasing risk of importation of tropical diseases into China and the resultant re-transmission in the country with the in-depth implementation of the “Belt and Road” Initiative, which poses a serious threat to the national public health security. To effectively respond to the cross-border transmission risk of tropical diseases and facilitate the process towards tropical disease control and elimination in China and the countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative, this article analyzes the current status and governance risks of major imported tropical diseases, cross-border joint prevention and control polices implemented for tropical diseases and challenges in the establishment of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in China, and discusses the establishment and implementation path of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative. This path covers the establishment of cross-border cooperation mechanisms, research and development and pilot production of Chinese public health products, and implementation of key cross-border tropical disease prevention and control projects. The establishment of this system will further improve Chinese prevention and control capabilities for key cross-border tropical diseases, build a demonstrative prevention and control model for tropical diseases, and promote international technical exchanges and cooperation of tropical diseases.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate medication risk prediction models for hospitalized adult patients and provide references for their development and clinical application. METHODS Databases including PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang data， VIP and CBM were searched for studies on medication risk prediction models from their inception to May 2024. After screening the literature， extracting data， and evaluating the quality of the literature， descriptive analysis was performed on the results of the included studies. RESULTS A total of 13 studies were included， involving 12 models. Nine studies used Logistic regression algorithm for modeling， and the number of included predictive factors ranged from 3 to 11； the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ranged from 0.65 to 0.865. The literature quality evaluation results showed that 10 studies had high risk of bias； 10 studies had high applicability risk. A total of 31 predictive factors were extracted， including 15 items of basic patient information， 3 test indicators， and 5 items of medication information， and 8 others. CONCLUSIONS The existing medication risk prediction models for hospitalized adult inpatients are mainly Logistic regression algorithm， with predictive factors mainly focusing on basic indicators such as demographics. The overall prediction performance of the models needs to be improved， and the overall risk of bias is relatively high.

As a commonly used traditional Chinese medicine in clinical practice， Tripterygium wilfordii has the functions of dispelling wind and removing dampness， detoxicating and destroying parasites， detumescence， pain relief， promoting blood circulation， and dredging collateral. Modern pharmacological studies show that it also has other functions such as anticancer， anti-inflammation， and immunosuppression. It has been widely used to treat autoimmune diseases， renal diseases， and tumors. T. wilfordii contains a variety of chemical components， among which triptolide （TP） can cause varying degrees of damage to human digestive， circulatory， reproductive， and other systems， with liver injury being the most common one， which greatly limits the development of TP in new drug research and industrial application. Therefore， the authors focused on the research hotspot of TP-induced liver injury and summarized relevant Chinese and international literature regarding the clinical manifestations， injury mechanisms， and detoxification strategies of TP-induced liver injury. This helps to provide a scientific basis for the clinical drug safety and scientific drug supervision of TP. The clinical manifestations of TP-induced liver injury are mostly abnormal transaminases， loss of appetite， nausea and vomiting， anorexia， yellow staining of skin and sclera， and yellow urine. The mechanisms of the above clinical manifestations involve apoptosis， oxidative stress， influence on cytochrome P450 superfamily， macrophage polarization， regulation of biological clock gene Clock， etc. Among them， cell apoptosis is related to neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 1 （Notch1）， dynamin-related protein 1 （Drp1）-cytochrome C （Cyt C）， phosphatidylinositide 3-kinases （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， tumor suppressor protein 53 （p53）， Fas cell surface death receptor （Fas）/Caspase-8， and other signaling pathways. Oxidative stress is related to inhibition of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 （NRF2） signaling pathway， promotion of cytochrome P450 2E1 （CYP2E1） expression， and excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen （ROS）. The influence of the cytochrome P450 superfamily is manifested as reducing the substrate affinity， activity， and expression of cytochrome P450 3A （CYP3A）， cytochrome P450 2C9 （CYP2C9）， cytochrome P450 2C19 （CYP2C19）， and cytochrome P450 1A2 （CYP1A2）. Promoting the transformation of macrophages into the M1 type is related to the secretion of inflammatory factors and the accumulation of endotoxin， and the internal rhythmic regulation of the biological clock gene Clock， is related to the expression of cytochrome P450 3A11 （CYP3A11） metabolic enzyme. The detoxification strategies in the clinical application include herbs-processing detoxification strategy and drug-pairing detoxification. The traditional Chinese medicines and monomers that are helpful for detoxification include Glycyrrhiza uralensis， Paeonia lactiflora， Lysimachia christinae， Rehmannia glutinosa， saffron， and paeoniflorin. The reviews and discussion about these topics can help to provide more references for related research and clinical application of TP.

Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are immune system disorders caused by genetic mutations, often presenting with varying degrees of infection, immune dysregulation, lymphoproliferation, and tumor susceptibility. Initially, IEIs were typically diagnosed in patients with recurrent and unusual infections. However increasing research has shown that noninfectious manifestations can also be the initial or even primary presentation of IEI. Over the past ten years, more and more IEIs associated with autoinflammatory symptoms have been identified. Although these diseases are rare, relevant research suggests that immune deficiency and autoinflammation are not opposing conditions but rather interconnected aspects of the immune system, influencing each other in a complementary and inseparable manner. This article reviews the mechanisms involved in IEI with autoinflammation, and proposes some clues for identifying IEI manifested as autoinflammation. It also summarizes the current progress in the diagnosis and treatment of IEI manifested as autoinflammation, and presents prospects for future research on IEI.

Objective:To investigate the effects of ubiquitin-specific protease (USP) 7/47 inhibitor (Cat. No. 1247825-37-1) on the proliferation and apoptosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells with or without internal tandem duplications of the Flt3 gene (Flt3-ITD). Methods:ATP assay was used to detect the effects of 1247825-37-1 on the cell viability of two AML cell lines (MOLM13 and MV4-11) harboring Flt3-ITD mutation and one AML cell line (THP-1) without Flt3-ITD mutation as well as the primary Flt3-ITD-mutant and non-mutant AML cells from patient samples. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of AML cell lines treated by different concentrations of 1247825-37-1.Results:Compared with the control group, 1247825-37-1 was able to significantly inhibit the proliferation of MOLM13, MV4-11 and THP-1 cells ( P<0.000 1). Besides, the cell viability of primary AML cells was also inhibited by 1247825-37-1, and a stronger inhibitory effect on non-mutant AML cells was observed. The USP7/USP47 inhibitor 1247825-37-1 could inhibit the proliferation of AML cells in a dose-dependent manner and a low dose (2 or 4 μmol/L) of 1247825-37-1 would be effective. Moreover, 1247825-37-1 was also able to efficiently induce the apoptosis of above AML cell lines in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusions:The USP7/USP47 inhibitor 1247825-37-1 significantly inhibits the proliferation of AML cells with or without Flt3-ITD mutation.

ObjectiveBased on non-targeted metabolomics， to analyze the regulation of endogenous differential metabolites in serum of type 2 diabetes mellitus（T2DM） rats by Fuling Yunhua granules， and to clarify the metabolic pathways through which this granules exerted its effect on improving T2DM. MethodSeventy SD rats， half male and half female， were randomly divided into the control group， model group， and high， medium， low dose groups of Fuling Yunhua granules（20.70， 10.35， 5.18 g·kg^-1 in raw drug amount） and the positive drug group（pioglitazone hydrochloride tablets， 8.1 mg·kg^-1）. Except for the control group， other groups were fed with high-sugar and high-fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin（STZ） to establish a T2DM rat model. After successful modeling， the treatment groups were administered the corresponding drugs by gavage， and the control group and model group were treated with an equal volume of saline by gavage， once/d， for 28 d. Fasting blood glucose（FBG） and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c（GHbA1c） levels were measured in all groups of rats during the administration period， and hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to observe the pathomorphological changes in the pancreatic tissues of rats at the end of the administration period. The endogenous metabolite levels in rat serum were detected by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-linear ion trap-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-LTQ-Orbitrap MS）， and the data were processed using principal component analysis（PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）. Differential metabolites were identified by the Human Metabolome Database（HMDB） and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG）， and screened for differential metabolites with variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1， P<0.05， and fold change（FC）<0.6 or FC>1. And the metabolic pathway enrichment analysis of the screened differential metabolites was performed by MetaboAnalyst 5.0， then the screened differential metabolites were diagnosed and evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic（ROC） curves. ResultCompared with the control group， the FBG level of rats in the model group increased significantly（P<0.01）， the GHbA1c content tended to increase， but the difference was not statistically significant， and the pancreatic tissue of rats was obviously damaged， the number of pancreatic islets decreased， and the pancreatic β-cells were obviously reduced， atrophied and enlarged. Compared with the model group， the FBG levels of rats in the high dose group of Fuling Yunhua granules and the positive drug group were significantly reduced after 2 weeks of administration（P<0.05， P<0.01）， the GHbA1c content of rats in the high dose group of Fuling Yunhua granules was significantly reduced（P<0.05）， and the pancreatic tissue lesions of rats in the different dose groups of Fuling Yunhua granules were reduced. The results of non-targeted metabolomics showed that 46 differential metabolites were significantly changed in the model group compared with the blank group. Pathway enrichment analysis found that T2DM mainly affected biological processes including biosynthesis of primary bile acid， D-amino acid metabolism， steroid hormone biosynthesis， and glycerophospholipid metabolism in rats. Compared with the model group， the levels of 8 differential metabolites in the high dose group of Fuling Yunhua granules were significantly adjusted， and the pathway enrichment analysis found that D-amino acid metabolism， retinol metabolism， glycine， serine and threonine metabolism， tryptophan metabolism and other metabolic pathways were mainly involved. ROC curves further analysis revealed that the four characteristic differential markers of 11-cis-retinol， D-piperidinic acid， D-serine， and p-cresol sulfate had high diagnostic value for the treatment of T2DM with Fuling Yunhua granules. ConclusionFuling Yunhua granules can improve the symptoms of T2DM rats by regulating the amino acid metabolic and retinol metabolic pathways through the modulation of endogenous differential metabolites.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of the sedative effect of remimazolam in endoscopy and to compare it with propofol and midazolam. METHODS Search PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Wanfang database, CNKI and other databases to collect the literature of randomized controlled trials of remimazolam for sedation in endoscopy. The search period was from 2018 onwards when remimazolam was approved for clinical trials until April 2022. The search strategy included the following variable keywords: remimazolam, gastroscopy, bronchoscopy, and colonoscopy. The quality of the included literature was assessed and the collected data were subjected to meta-analysis by RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS Ten relevant RCTs involving midazolam and propofol, involving a total of 2 076 patients were included in the analysis. The results showed that the sedative effect of remimazolam was significantly higher than that of midazolam [OR=0.03, 95%CI(0.02, 0.05), I2=0%, P<0.000 01]; but lower than that of propofol [OR=11.32, 95%CI(2.12, 60.56), I2=0%, P=0.005]. The onset time of remimazolam was longer than that of propofol, but shorter than that of midazolam; the recovery time was faster than that of propofol and midazolam. Compared with midazolam, there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions. Compared with propofol, remimazolam was associated with lower rates of hypotension, slowed heart rate, hypoxemia, and injection pain, but higher risk ratio of nausea, with no difference invomiting. CONCLUSION The sedative effect and onset of action of remimazolam are better than midazolam but less than propofol when used for endoscopy. Wake-up time is faster than that of propofol and midazolam. The incidence of respiratory and circulatory depression is lower with remimazolam than with propofol, and there are no significant differences in adverse effects compared with midazolam.

ObjectiveTo identify the rate， population characteristics， and vaccination history of repeat infections among previously infected people in the current epidemic based on the rate of repeat infection and population characteristics of different mutant strains at different times in Pudong New Area of Shanghai， and to provide reference for the prevention and control strategies of novel coronavirus repeat infections. MethodsA total of 9 250 investigated subjects were randomly selected from the new cases of asymptomatic infection and confirmed cases reported by Pudong New Area from March to May 2022. The investigation mainly focused on demographic characteristics， nucleic acid or antigen test results， and symptoms after infection. The repeat infection rates among different populations were compared， and logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of gender， age， and vaccination status on repeat infections. ResultsThe survey sample of 9 250 people had a response rate of 81.85%. There were 4 043 males （53.40%） and 3 528 females （46.60%）， with a median age of 34 years old （P₂₅， P₇₅： 7， 61）. The overall vaccine uptake rate was 59.44% （4 500/7 571）. In December of 2022， there were 563 cases of repeat infection， with an infection rate of 7.44%. The lowest rate of repeat infection was seen in the 3‒ year-old group （2.86%） and the highest rate in the 30‒ year-old group （12.42%）， with significant differences between different age groups. The repeated infection rate for those who had completed their vaccinations was significantly lower （6.57%） compared to those who had not （7.11%）. The age groups of 3‒ years， 70‒79 years， as well as individuals who completed full vaccination and received booster shots were protective factors against repeat infections. ConclusionThe overall rate of reinfection among the infected in Shanghai during the spring of 2022 was low in the outbreak of the Omicron variant， and the rate of reinfection in the 3‒ year-old group was significantly lower than in other age groups. Completing the full course of vaccination significantly reduces the risk of reinfection. Although the reinfection rate is high in individuals who received booster shots， it remains a mitigating factor compared to those who do not receive the vaccine. It is recommended to continue monitoring reinfections in key populations and further strengthen immunization efforts.

Objective To evaluate the characteristics of dose distribution of neuronal networks in vitro on microelectrode arrays(MEAs)under 2.6 GHz radiofrequency(RF)exposure.Methods The MEAs were coupled with a real-time RF exposure setup,and electromagnetic simulation software was used to calculate the RF dose absorbed in cultured neuronal networks.A fiber-optic temperature probe was used for experimental validation and monitoring of the cell temperature during RF exposure.The MEAs were used to record the electrical activity of neurons.Results For an input power of 1 W,a specific absorption rate(SAR)level of(15.51±2.48)W/kg was calculated,and the variability of the SAR distribution was 16%.In our experimental system,the temperature elevation of neurons was up to 0.15℃for an SAR of 4 W/kg RF exposure.Conclusion The exposure device can provide high SAR efficiency and uniformity in the 2.6 GHz band,which is suitable for studying the real-time effects of RF fields on the electrical activity of neuronal networks in the 5G network band.
