OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Jiangqi Pingxiao Formula on airway inflammation in mice with acute asthma and explore its possible mechanism.METHODS A total of 36 BALB/c mice were randomly divided into normal group,model group,dexamethasone group,low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups of Jiangqi Pingxiao Formula,with 6 mice in each group.Except for the normal group,the other groups were given ovalbumin to establish the acute asthma attack mouse model.The normal group and the model group were given distilled water by gavage,and the Jiangqi Pingxiao Formula groups were given Jiangqi Pingxiao Formula by gavage at the corresponding dose,once a day,for 5 consecutive days.Whole Body Plethysmography was used to measure the changes of enhanced respiratory interval(Pehn)of bronchial contraction parameters in mice.HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of lung tissue in mice.ELISA method was adopted to detect the expression levels of interleukin 1β(IL-1β),interleukin 18(IL-18)and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)in lung tissue homogenate of mice.Immunohistochemistry method was used to detect the expression level of NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-associated protein 3(NLRP3)in lung tissue of mice.Western blot method was employed to detect the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome activation-associated protein κ gene binding nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB),NOD-like receptor pyrin domain-associated protein 3(NLRP3),NIMA-associated kinase 7(NEK7),Caspase 1(Cleaved-Caspase 1)and apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC)in lung tissue of mice.RESULTS Compared with the normal group,the Penh level of mice in the model group was increased(P<0.001),and the pathological results of lung tissue showed that the number of inflammatory cells around the airway increased,the inflammatory score increased(P<0.001),the expression of IL-1β,IL-18,and TNF-α in lung tissue homogenate increased(P<0.001),and the expression of NF-κB,NLRP3,NEK7,Cleaved-Caspase 1,and ASC proteins in lung tissue increased(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001).Compared with the model group,the Penh level of mice in the Jiangqi Pingxiao Formula groups and the dexamethasone group was reduced(P<0.05,P<0.001),the number of inflammatory cells in lung tissue decreased,and the inflammatory score decreased(P<0.001);the expression of IL-1β,IL-18,and TNF-α in lung tissue homogenate decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001);the expression of NF-κB,NLRP3,NEK7,Cleaved-Caspase 1,and ASC pro-teins in lung tissue decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001).CONCLUSION Jiangqi Pingxiao Formula can improve lung function and airway inflammation in asthma model mice,and its mechanism may be related to regulating NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated IL-1β secretion.

Objective:This study aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1) receptor agonists and multi-target analogs on weight reduction and cardiometabolic outcomes in non-diabetic individuals with obesity, and to compare the efficacy and safety across different GLP-1 receptor agonists.Methods:Randomized controlled trials(RCTs) published between January 2000 and March 2025 were identified through a systematic search of CNKI, Wanfang, Web of Science, PubMed, and Cochrane databases. Two reviewers independently screened the studies, extracted data, and assessed methodological quality. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.1 software. Results:A total of 16 RCTs involving 11 032 non-diabetic individuals with obesity were included. Meta-analysis showed that GLP-1 receptor agonists significantly reduced body weight(ΔWeight=-8.71 kg, 95% CI -10.68 to -6.74, P<0.001) and BMI(ΔBMI=-3.01 kg/m 2, 95% CI -3.77 to -2.25, P<0.001), as well as improved systolic blood pressure(ΔSBP=-4.13 mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, 95% CI -4.87 to -3.39, I2=60%) and diastolic blood pressure(ΔDBP=-1.39 mmHg, 95% CI -2.32 to -0.46, I2=95%). Tirzepatide showed the most pronounced effects on both weight and blood pressure reduction. In addition, GLP-1 receptor agonists significantly lowered LDL-C, TC, and TG, while moderately increasing HDL-C levels. In terms of safety, GLP-1 receptor agonists were associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal adverse events, but did not significantly increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Conclusion:GLP-1 receptor agonists are effective in reducing weight, BMI, and blood pressure, and in improving lipid profiles in non-diabetic individuals with obesity. However, gastrointestinal side effects should be closely monitored. Given the variability in efficacy and safety among various GLP-1 receptor agonists, personalized treatment approaches are recommended.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety profile of antaitasvir phosphate combined with yiqibuvir in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) of various genotypes, without cirrhosis or with compensated cirrhosis.Methods:394 cases with CHC from 22 centers were collected from October 2021 to April 2023. They were randomly assigned to receive either the experimental drugs (antaitasvir phosphate 100 mg+yiqibuvir 600 mg) or placebo treatment in a 3∶1 ratio. The patients were administered drugs once a day for 12 consecutive weeks, and then followed up for 24 weeks after treatment cessation. All subjects were unblinded at the four-week follow-up following drug discontinuation, with the experimental drug group continuing to complete subsequent post-discontinuation follow-up. The placebo group was switched to receive the experimental drugs for a repeated 12-week treatment period and followed up for another 24 weeks after discontinuation of the drug (placebo delayed treatment phase).The sustained virologic response rate (SVR12) was observed for subjects in the double-blind phase and the placebo delayed-treatment phase at 12 weeks after treatment cessation.Virological resistance analysis was performed on subjects who failed treatment. The primary efficacy endpoint was SVR12. The number and percentage of subjects who achieved "HCV RNA

Objective To investigate the effect of esketamine on perioperative pain and depression in patients with thoracoscopic pulmonary nodule resection. Methods A total of 120 patients with selective thoracoscopic pulmonary nodule resection were randomly divided into low-dose esketamine group (group L), high-dose esketamine group (group H) and saline control group (group C), with 40 cases in each group. Before skin incisionafter anesthetic induction, 0.25 mg/kgesketamine, 0.50 mg/kg esketamine and the equivalent amount of saline were separately administered for patients in the three groups. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score for pain and the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) score were compared among the three groups at the time points of one day before surgery (T₀), one day after surgery (T₁), three days after surgery (T₂), and the day of discharge (T₃), and postoperative analgesia within 24 h and perioperative adverse reactions were also recorded. Results The VAS scores for rest and coughing at T₁ were significantly lower in group L and group H than group C (P < 0.05); compared with group C, the total press number of analgesic pump with in 24 h and effective press number were significantly decreased in group L and group H, and the dosage of sufentanil was also significantly decreased(P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in depression scores at different time points among the three groups (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the incidence rates of nausea, vomiting, dizziness, hallucinations, and nightmares among the three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Esketamine can effectively alleviate pain on the first day after operation and reduce the dosage of opioid analgesics without increasing the incidence of adverse reactions in patients with thoracoscopic pulmonary nodule resection; compared with 0.25 mg/kg esketamine, 0.50 mg/kg esketamine doesn't demonstrate better postoperative analgesia or improvement in perioperative depression.

Respiratory syncytial virus(RSV)infection is a potential susceptibility factor for recurrent wheezing,which can affect the occurrence and development of asthma through immune damage,airway epithelial barrier damage,airway inflammatory infiltration,airway hyperresponsiveness,and high expression of induced susceptibility genes.Traditional Chinese medicine believes that asthma caused by RSV infection is mostly caused by the imbalance of the body's qi after infection and the retention of evil qi.By combing the mechanism of RSV infection in the occurrence and development of asthma and the research on traditional Chinese medicine intervention in recent years,it is hoped to provide ideas for the future application of combined Chinese and Western medicine to prevent and treat asthma.

Based on the physiological and pathological characteristics of"spleen is often insufficient"in Children,Professor Jiang Yuren put forward the academic view of"the health of the spleen is not replenished but regulated",and took"spleen regulation meth-od"as the first choice for the treatment of spleen-stomach diseases such as anorexia,diarrhea,infantile malnutrition,iron deficiency anemia.By systematically analyzing the academic connotation,clinical practice,inheritance and development of Professor Jiang Yuren's"spleen regulation method"and combining with the current research progress,this article interprets the internal molecular mechanism of"spleen regulation method"to provide scientific basis for further promoting the clinical application and modern research of Professor Jiang Yuren's"spleen regulation method".

Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disease,and airway inflammation,airway hyper-respon-siveness and airway remodeling are the major pathological alterations in asthma.Numerous studies have demon-strated sphingosine metabolism disorders exist in asthma patients,and sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P)is the end product of sphingolipid metabolism,which has become the focus of research as an important mediator of immune and inflammatory diseases,and is closely related to the development of asthma.In this paper,we summarize the role of S1P in the pathological changes of asthma from the relationship between S1P and asthma as well as its application in the clinical diagnosis,treatment and efficacy assessment of asthma,with a view to exploring more directions in the diagnosis and treatment of asthma.
