ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Huangqi Gegentang （HGT） in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM） through the application of proteomic techniques. MethodsThe rat model of T2DM was established by streptozotocin combined with a high-fat， high-sugar diet. Thirty-two male SD rats were randomized into four groups： blank， model， HGT （8.10 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and positive control （metformin hydrochloride， 76.5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）. After 6 weeks of drug intervention， the fasting blood glucose level was measured， and an oral glucose tolerance test （OGTT） was performed. The area under the curve （AUC） was calculated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to assess the level of glycated hemoglobin （GHbA1c） in the serum. The limulus amebocyte lysate assay was employed to measure the serum level of lipopolysaccharide （LPS）. Pathological changes in the colon were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines including tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， interleukin （IL）-6， and IL-1β in the colon tissue were quantified via Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. Additionally， the protein and mRNA levels of zonula occludens-1 （ZO-1）， Occludin， and Claudin-1 in the colon tissue were assessed by Western blot and Real-time PCR， respectively. Label-free quantitative proteomics was employed to identify the differentially expressed proteins between the colon tissue samples from the blank， model， and HGT groups. Key proteins identified were subsequently validated by Western blot and Real-time PCR. Finally， bioinformatics analysis was conducted on the differentially expressed proteins. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group exhibited increased fasting blood glucose， AUC， and GHbA1c levels （P<0.01）， damaged colonic mucosal epithelial structure and inflammatory cell infiltration， up-regulated mRNA levels of TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β in the colon and an increase in serum LPS content （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and down-regulated protein and mRNA levels of ZO-1， Occludin， and Claudin-1 in the colon （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the HGT group showed reductions in fasting blood glucose， AUC， and GHbA1c （P<0.01）， alleviated damage to the colonic mucosal epithelium， down-regulated mRNA levels of TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β in the colon， a reduction in serum LPS content （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated protein and mRNA levels of ZO-1， Occludin， and Claudin-1 in the colon （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Proteomics analysis identified 70 differentially expressed proteins that exhibited a downward trend in the model group relative to the blank group and an upward trend in the HGT group relative to the model group. These findings were corroborated by Western blot and Real-time PCR， which confirmed that the protein and mRNA levels of mucin 2 （Muc2） and transforming growth factor （TGF）-beta receptor 1 （Tgfbr1） in the colon tissue were consistent with the proteomic data. Bioinformatics analysis showed that these 70 differentially expressed proteins identified were significantly enriched in multiple signaling pathways， among which the TGF-β and advanced glycation endproduct （AGE）/receptor for advanced glycation endproduct （RAGE） signaling pathways were closely associated with damage to the intestinal mucosal barrier. This suggests that HGT may ameliorate intestinal mucosal barrier damage by regulating these pathways. ConclusionHGT potentially exerts anti-T2DM effects by influencing AGE/RAGE and TGF-β signaling pathways， thereby contributing to the restoration of the intestinal mucosal barrier.

Tuberculosis is still the second leading cause of death from a single source of infection in the world.There is a two-way relationship between tuberculosis and the nutritional status of the body,which affects and causes each other.Vitamin D is an essential micronutrient,most research results show that vitamin D deficiency is common in tuberculosis patients,which is related to lack of sunlight,decreased dietary intake of vitamin D and anti-tuberculosis drug treatment.Low level vitamin D can increase tuberculosis susceptibility to some extent,but the research results are not completely consistent.This paper reviews the nutritional status of vitamin D in tuberculosis patients in recent years,the causes of vitamin D deficiency in tuberculosis patients and the relationship between vitamin D deficiency and susceptibility of tuberculosis,so as to provide references for further study on the role of vitamin D in tuberculosis prevention and treatment.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of hypothermia after extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in prostate cancer patients over 80 years old,so as to improve the effectiveness of treatment.Methods The clinical data of 26 cases of prostate cancer patients over 80 years old who underwent extraperitoneal laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in Shanghai 411 hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were analyzed retrospectively.The incidence of postoperative hypothermia was investigated.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the related factors of postoperative hypothermia in elderly patients.Results The incidence of hypothermia was 61.54%(16/26).Univariate analysis indicated that body mass index(BMI),intraoperative thermal insulation,intraoperative infusion volume,operation time,and anesthesia time were related to the occurrence of postoperative hypothermia in elderly patients(all P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that BMI≤24,intraoperative infusion volume>2 000 ml,anesthesia time>3 h and operation time>2.5 h were high risk factors for postoperative hypothermia in patients over 80 years old.Conclusion The independent influencing factors of hypothermia after extraperitoneal laparoscopic prostatectomy for selected prostate cancer patients over 80 years old are BMI,intraoperative infusion volume,duration of anesthesia,and operation time.These factors should be paid more attention during perioperative period in order to improve clinical safety.

Objective:To study the effects of low-dose dexmedetomidine via nasal spray on preoperative anxiety and tracheal intuba-tion induced stress response in elderly patients with maxillofacial surgery using heart rate variability(HRV).Methods:60 elderly pa-tients underwent maxillofacial surgery were randomly divided into the dexmedetomidine group(group D)and the control group(group C).Patients in the group D were treated with nasal spray of dexmedetomidine at 45 min preoperatively.Those in the group C were giv-en the same dose of normal saline spray at the same time.All patients were given intravenous combined with inhalation general anes-thesia.The hemodynamics,HRV index,sedation score and BIS value of the 2 groups of patients were compared at 3 time points,be-fore operation(T0),entrance(T1)and tracheal intubation(T2)respectively.Results:At T1,the average score of Ramsay in group D and group C was 2.8±0.7 and 1.1±0.39,BIS 87.3±6.1 and 97.4±0.5,SD1 20.9±7.0 and 15.4±5.4,SDNN 30.9±6.6 and 37.1±7.0,LF/HF 1.3±0.3 and 2.6±0.4,respectively(P＜O.01).At T2,the average score of SD1 in group D and group C was 10.4±3.5 and 7.7±3.1,SDNN 59.2±6.5 and 70.1±7.1,LF/HF 5.l±0.5 and 7.5±0.5,respectively(P＜0.01).Conclusion:Low-dose dexmedetomidine nasal spray can effectively relieve the preoperative anxiety of elderly patients in maxillofacial surgery and reduce the stress response of tracheal intubation.

OBJECTIVE To compare the efficacy and safety between the drug winning the bidding for centralized procurement and the original drug of ticagrelor in acute coronary syndrome （ACS） patients one year after percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI）. METHODS Overall 420 ACS patients treated with PCI in our hospital from July 2021 to June 2023 were divided into centralized procurement group （156 cases） and original drug group （264 cases） according to the different varieties of ticagrelor. All patients were given Aspirin enteric-coated tablets 100 mg regularly， once a day； on this basis， patients in the centralized procurement group were given Ticagrelor tablets winning the bidding， while patients in the original drug group were given the original drug of Ticagrelor tablets. The dosage of Ticagrelor tablets taken by both groups of patients was 90 mg， twice a day， and the course of treatment was 12 months. The blood routine indicators were compared before treatment and one week after treatment， while the incidence of net adverse clinical events （NACE）， major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events （MACCE） and bleeding events， and the survival rate without MACCE and bleeding events during a one-year follow-up after PCI were also compared between two groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in blood routine indicators before treatment and one week after treatment， as well as the incidence of NACE， MACCE and bleeding events， survival rate without MACCE and bleeding events during a one-year follow-up after PCI between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS During a one-year follow-up after PCI， the efficacy and safety of the drug winning the bidding for centralized procurement of ticagrelor are comparable to the original drug.

Objective To investigate the effect of Inonotus obliquus extract on Crohn's disease and its mechanism by proteomics technology.Methods Crohn's disease(CD)model was induced by 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid(TNBS).A total of 48 SD male rats were randomized into control,model,Inonotus obliquus low-dose(200 mg/kg),medium-dose(400 mg/kg),high-dose(800 mg/kg)groups,and positive control group(mesalazine,225 mg/kg).The disease activity index(DAI)score and the colonic mucosal injury index(CMDI)score were assessed after one week of drug intervention.HE staining was used to observe the histopathological changes in the colon,and ELISA was used to detect the levels of IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α in the serum.Proteins were extracted from the colonic tissues of the control group,model group,and Inonotus obliquus high-dose group,and bioinformatics analysis was performed for the proteins identified by quantitative proteomics.Finally,Western blot and RT-qPCR were employed to verify the key proteins.Results Compared with the model group,the DAI,CMDI and HE staining scores were significantly decreased in the medium and high dose groups(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),as well as the levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-αin serum(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Proteomic tests showed that there were 199 differentially expressed proteins(DEPs)between the Inonotus obliquus high-dose group and the model group,of which 63 DEPs were related to CD.Bioinformatics analysis showed that these 63 DEPs were mainly involved in NOD-like receptor signaling pathway,calcium signaling pathway,necroptosis,and other pathways.Consistent with proteomic result,expressions of Vdac1 and Trpv2 were confirmed by Western blot and RT-qPCR in colon tissue.Conclusions Inonotus obliquus extract may regulate NOD-like receptor signaling pathway,calcium signaling pathway,and necroptosis by interfering with the expression of Vdac1 and Trpv2,so as to achieve the effect of treating CD.

Objective:To explore the experience of the postoperative adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome from the patients′ angle and to provide references for improving the postoperative comfort of the patients.Methods:The phenomenology research method was adopted in this study. Thirteen postoperative adult patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome from Department of Otolaryngology, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology participated in the in-depth interview with the interview outline. Data were analyzed by using Colaizzi′s phenomenological method.Results:Three level-1 themes and ten level-2 themes were extracted. The physical discomfort included throat discomfort, lacking of enough sleep at night, restricted diet, limitation in speaking. The negative emotion included the sense of worry, helplessness, fidget and regret. The wish of support included the wish of coping strategy and being understanded.Conclusions:The main uncomfortable experience of the patients is the throat discomfort which has the chain reaction and causes the other discomfort. So the nurses should inquire patients initiatively, cooperate with doctors and patients′ family members to relieve patients′ discomfort particularly at night, and then the patients′ quality of life, nurse-patient relationship and patients′ satisfaction may be improved.

Objective:To retrieve, appraise and summarize the evidence for the airway humidification management of the inpatient with laryngectomy and tracheotomy but nonmechanical ventilation and to provide references for the clinical nursing.Methods:The evidence question was raised based on the study objective. The evidence was retrieved from some databases according to the evidence pyramid model during inception to December, 2018. The literature types included clinical practice guideline, evidence summary, best practice information sheet, recommended practice and systematic review. The quality of the literature were evaluated by the suitable evaluated tool based on their types. The level and recommedation grade of the evidence were appraised by the suitable tools of JBI.Results:Thirteen studies were recruited, including one clinical practice guideline, two evidence summaries, one best practice information sheet and nine systematic reviews. Totally thirteen items of best evidence were summarized and generalized to four categories including assessment, method, liquid and operation of airway humidification.Conclusion:The evidences of the studies are scientific and practical, but on the one hand, it is recommended that when applying the evidences in clinic, it is necessary to assess the clinical situation and chose the proper evidence. And on the other hand, there are lacking of some evidences of airway humidification and the level of some evidences is low. So it needs to create more high level evidences.

OBJECTIVETo investigated the curative effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for malignant lymphoma.

METHODSThe clinical data of 81 patients with malignant lymphoma received ASCT from April 1999 to October 2013 were retrospectively analyzed. Of 81 patients, 70 were non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and 11 Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). High dose of etoposide combined with G-CSF was used to mobilize peripheral hematopoietic stem cell. Preconditioning regimen was BEAM (carmustine + cytarabine + etoposide + melphalan).

RESULTSEnough peripheral blood stem cells were collected from all patients. All of the patients after transplantation achieved hematopoietic reconstitution, the median time of the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) recovery to >0.5×10⁹/L time was 10(7-16) d, and the median time of platelet count recovery to >20×10⁹/L was 10(6-17) d. With the follow-up of 23(2-139) months, progression free survival (PFS) was 72.7%, and overall survival (OS) was 88.6%. The median PFS and OS were not reached. Complete remission (CR) before ASCT was an independent prognostic factor of PFS. No transplant related death happened.

CONCLUSIONASCT was a safe and effective method for treatment of malignant lymphoma.
