ObjectiveTo compare the hepatic bile acid profile between a mouse model of metabolic-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) induced by a high-fat, high-sugar, and high-cholesterol diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of 10% carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and MASH cases in clinical practice, and to investigate the feasibility of this model in studying drug interventions on bile acid profile in MASH. MethodsA total of 30 male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group and model group, with 15 mice in each group. The mice in the control group were given normal diet and drinking water and weekly injections of olive oil, and those in the model group were given a high-fat, high-sugar, and high-cholesterol diet, high-sugar drinking water, and weekly injections of CCl4+olive oil. At the end of weeks 8, 12, and 16, 5 mice were selected from each group to collect samples. Behavioral assessments were performed, and body weight and liver wet weight were measured; liver pathology and lipid deposition were evaluated by HE staining, SAF scoring, oil Red O staining, the semi-quantitative analysis of stained area, the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and liver triglyceride (TG) content; Sirius Red staining was performed for liver tissue to assess liver fibrosis; ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and targeted metabolomics were used to measure the hepatic bile acid profile, including cholic acid (CA), glycocholic acid (GCA), chenodeoxycholic acid (CDCA), glycochenodeoxycholic acid (GCDCA), ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA), hyodeoxycholic acid (HDCA), and glycodeoxycholic acid (GDCA). The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups. ResultsCompared with the control group at the same time point, the model group had disheveled and dull fur, reduced activity, and relatively slow reactions at weeks 8, 12, and 16, as well as significant increases in liver wet weight (P<0.05), the serum level of ALT (P<0.05), the content of TG in the liver (P<0.05), and SAF score (P<0.05). As for the differentially expressed bile acids in liver tissue, compared with the control group at week 8, the model group had significantly higher levels of CA and CDCA and significantly lower levels of UDCA, TUDCA, HDCA, and GDCA (all P<0.05); compared with the control group at week 12, the model group had significantly higher levels of CA, GCA, CDCA, and GCDCA and significantly lower levels of UDCA and HDCA (all P<0.05); compared with the control group at week 16, the model group had significantly higher levels of CA, GCA, CDCA, GCDCA, and TUDCA and significantly lower levels of UDCA, HDCA, and GDCA (all P<0.05). As for the differentially expressed bile acids in the bile acid pool of liver tissue, compared with the control group at week 8, the model group had significantly higher levels of CA and CDCA and significantly lower levels of UDCA, TUDCA, GDCA, and HDCA (all P<0.05); compared with the control group at weeks 12 and 16, the model group had significantly higher levels of GCA and GCDCA and significantly lower levels of UDCA, GDCA, and HDCA (all P<0.05). ConclusionThere are significant changes in the hepatic bile acid profile in a mouse model of MASH induced by a high-fat, high-sugar, and high-cholesterol diet combined with CCl4, which are similar to the changes in bile acids in MASH cases in clinical practice, suggesting that this model can be used to explore the interventional effect of drugs on the bile acid profile in MASH.

Objective:To explore the role of cathepsin S(CTSS) in diabetic vascular injury-induced restenosis.Methods:(1) Dendritic cells(DCs) were stimulated with different concentrations of glucose, and CTSS was either knocked down or upregulated in dendritic cells using adenovirus transfection. The mRNA and protein expression levels of CTSS were detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot, and the changes of interleukin(IL)-6 levels were assessed using RT-qPCR and ELISA in response to CTSS. (2) The extent of Th17 cell differentiation was evaluated with Flow cytometry when CTSS was downregulated or overexpressed. Levels of ROR-γt, IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and IL-23 were measured. (3) Streptozomycin(STZ, 60 mg/kg) was injected into the intraperitoneal cavity of rats fasted for 12 h to obtain a diabetic rat model, and the restenosis model was obtained by balloon catheter and carotid guidewire injury, and the differentiation degree of Th17 cells in different groups of rats was compared when CTSS was up-regulated and down-regulated.Results:(1) DC viability decreased when stimulated with 35 mmol/L glucose for 48 hours. Compared to the control group, glucose treatment led to a concentration-dependent increase in CTSS and IL-6 levels in DCs( P<0.05). Inhibition of CTSS reduced IL-6 protein levels, while its overexpression increased IL-6 protein levels( P<0.05). (2) Compared with the control group, CTSS inhibition in DC decreased the percentage of Th17 cells in T cells, with decreased protein levels of ROR-γt, IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and IL-23, and vice versa ( P<0.050). (3) After carotid artery injury, CTSS expression was increased in perivascular adipose tissue(PVAT) of rats, and levels of ROR-γt, IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and IL-23 in PVAT were significantly elevated. Down-regulation of CTSS eliminated the glucose-induced enhancement. Conclusion:Inhibition of CTSS in DC reduces Th17 cell differentiation and thereby suppresses restenosis following diabetic vascular injury.

Background Air pollution is a major public health concern. Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) is a very important air quality risk communication tool. However, AQHI is usually constructed by single-pollutant model, which has obvious disadvantages. Objective To construct an AQHI based on the joint effects of multiple air pollutants (J-AQHI), and to provide a scientific tool for health risk warning and risk communication of air pollution. Methods Data on non-accidental deaths in Yunnan, Guangdong, Hunan, Zhejiang, and Jilin provinces from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2018 were obtained from the corresponding provincial disease surveillance points systems (DSPS), including date of death, age, gender, and cause of death. Daily meteorological (temperature and relative humidity) and air pollution data (SO2, NO2, CO, PM2.5, PM10, and maximum 8 h O3 concentrations) at the same period were respectively derived from China Meteorological Data Sharing Service System and National Urban Air Quality Real-time Publishing Platform. Lasso regression was first applied to select air pollutants, then a time-stratified case-crossover design was applied. Each case was matched to 3 or 4 control days which were selected on the same days of the week in the same calendar month. Then a distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was used to estimate the exposure-response relationship between selected air pollutants and mortality, which was used to construct the AQHI. Finally, AQHI was classified into four levels according to the air pollutant guidance limit values from World Health Organization Global Air Quality Guidelines (AQG 2021), and the excess risks (ERs) were calculated to compare the AQHI based on single-pollutant model and the J-AQHI based on multi-pollutant model. Results PM2.5, NO2, SO2, and O3 were selected by Lasso regression to establish DLNM model. The ERs for an interquartile range (IQR) increase and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for PM2.5, NO2, SO2 and O3 were 0.71% (0.34%–1.09%), 2.46% (1.78%–3.15%), 1.25% (0.9%–1.6%), and 0.27% (−0.11%–0.65%) respectively. The distribution of J-AQHI was right-skewed, and it was divided into four levels, with ranges of 0-1 for low risk, 2-3 for moderate risk, 4-5 for high health risk, and ≥6 for severe risk, and the corresponding proportions were 11.25%, 64.61%, 19.33%, and 4.81%, respectively. The ER (95%CI) of mortality risk increased by 3.61% (2.93–4.29) for each IQR increase of the multi-pollutant based J-AQHI , while it was 3.39% (2.68–4.11) for the single-pollutant based AQHI . Conclusion The J-AQHI generated by multi-pollutant model demonstrates the actual exposure health risk of air pollution in the population and provides new ideas for further improvement of AQHI calculation methods.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of pinhole infection in patients with external fixators, and build a risk prediction model.Methods:From January 2018 to June 2019, the data of patients ( n=300) with external fixators in the Department of Trauma and Orthopedics, South Hospital, South Medical University, were selected by retrospective survey, and were divided into infection group and non-infection group according to whether pinhole infection occurred in the postoperative case records. Single factor analysis and Logistic regression analysis were used to establish the risk factors of pinhole infection and its prediction model. The grade of risk prediction was constructed by the assignment method. Results:Among 300 patients with external fixators, 103 (34.33%) had pinhole infection and 197 (65.67%) had no infection. Logistic regression analysis showed that basic disease [ OR=4.726 (one of diabetes, pulmonary infection), 17.053 (two of diabetes, pulmonary infection, cardiovascular diseases) ], postoperative albumin [ OR=0.082 (<25 g/L) ], postoperative hemoglobin [ OR=3.715 (>90-120 g/L), 9.720 (>60-90 g/L), 7.338 (30~60 g/L) ], intraoperative bleeding volume [ OR=2.196 (200-400 ml), OR=3.256 (>400 ml) ] and the type of disinfectant [ OR=3.897 (chlorhexidine), 3.625 (iodophor + chlorhexidine) ] were risk factors for pinhole infection in patients with external fixators ( P<0.05). The constructed model was divided into high-risk group (≥ 7 points), higher-risk group (5-6 points), medium-risk group (4 points), low-risk group (3 points) and lower-risk group (0-2 points) . Conclusions:The model can well predict the risk of pinhole infection of orthopedic external fixator, provide reference for medical and nursing staff to identify the risk of external fixation infection in time, and prevent the occurrence of infection as soon as possible.

Objective To investigate the effect of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its material basis. Methods In experiment 1 for exploring the effect of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction on mice with NAFLD induced by high-fat diet, 50 healthy male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal group, model group, high- and low-dose Xuefu Zhuyu decoction groups, and obeticholic acid control group, with 10 mice in each group. The mice in the normal group were given control diet, and those in the other groups were given high-fat diet. Gastric administration was started at week 13, and related samples were collected at the end of week 16. Food intake and body weight were recorded, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the serum level of fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose was measured, and insulin resistance index was calculated. HE staining and NAFLD activity score (NAS) were used to observe liver histopathology in mice, oil red O staining was used to observe lipid deposition, and triglyceride (TG) level in liver tissue and serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level were measured. In experiment 2 for exploring the effect of different extracts of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction on mice with NAFLD induced by high-fat diet, the methods of water decocting, water extraction and alcohol precipitation, and petroleum ether extraction were used to obtain the extracts 1, 2, and 3 of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction, and 54 healthy male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into normal group, model group, Xuefu Zhuyu decoction extract 1, 2, and 3 groups, and Xuefu Zhuyu decoction control group, with 9 mice in each group. The mice in the normal group were given control diet, and those in the other groups were given high-fat diet. Gastric administration was started at week 13, and related samples were collected at the end of week 16. Food intake and body weight were recorded, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the serum level of fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose was measured, and insulin resistance index was calculated. HE and NAS were used to observe liver histopathology in mice, oil red O staining was used to observe lipid deposition, and the levels of TG and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) in liver tissue and the serum level of ALT were measured. The t -test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups; a one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t -test was used for further comparison between two groups. The Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between multiple groups and further comparison between two groups. Results In experiment 1, compared with the model group, the high- and low-dose Xuefu Zhuyu decoction groups and the obeticholic acid control group had significant reductions in body weight, insulin resistance index, the distribution of vacuolar lipid droplets in liver tissue, intralobular inflammation, the ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes, NAS score, the level of TG in liver tissue, and the serum level of ALT (all P < 0.05). Compared with obeticholic acid, high- and low-dose Xuefu Zhuyu decoction had a significantly better effect in reducing body weight, insulin resistance index, and total NAS score (all P < 0.05), and low-dose Xuefu Zhuyu decoction had a significantly better effect in improving serum ALT ( P < 0.05). In experiment 2, compared with the model group, the Xuefu Zhuyu decoction extract 1, 2, and 3 groups had significant reductions in fasting blood glucose, insulin resistance index, the distribution of lipid droplets in liver tissue, intralobular inflammation lesions, the ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes, total NAS score, and the level of TG in the liver (all P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the extract 1 group had a significant reduction in body weight ( P < 0.05); the extract 2 and 3 groups had a significant reduction in the serum level of ALT ( P < 0.05); the extract 2 group had a significant reduction in the level of GGT in liver tissue ( P < 0.05). The extract 2 of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction had the closest effect to compound Xuefu Zhuyu decoction. Conclusion Xuefu Zhuyu decoction and its extracts can help to achieve varying degrees of improvement in NAFLD induced by high-fat diet in mice, and the extract 2 of Xuefu Zhuyu decoction might be the main material basis for Xuefu Zhuyu decoction.

Objective:To explore the effects of modified Fired Glycyrrhizae Decoction on hemodynamics and levels of myocardial enzymes in coronary arrhythmia (CA) after bifurcation lesion (BCL) surgery.Methods:According to simple random method, 100 patients with CA after BCL surgery in the hospital who met the inclusion criteria were divided into two groups between May 2019 and May 2021, 50 in each group. The control group was treated with intravenous drip of amiodarone and routine treatment, while the observation group was treated with modified Fired Glycyrrhizae Decoction on basis of control group. Both groups were treated for 2 weeks. Before and after treatment, TCM syndromes were scored. The quality of life was assessed by World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale (WHOOLQ-100). The plasma or serum specific viscosity, fibrinogen and ESR were detected by non-invasive hemodynamic detector. The levels of cardiac troponin (cTnT), creatine kinase (CK) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were detected by ELISA. The disappearance time of symptoms was observed. The adverse reactions were recorded. And the clinical responsive effect was evaluated.Results:The difference in total response rate between observation group and control group was not statistically significant [92.0% (46/50) vs. 90.0% (45/50); χ2=0.12, P=0.727]. After treatment, scores of fluster and shortness of breath, panic and irritability, and mental fatigue in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=7.38, 9.88, 4.87, P<0.01), and scores of physical function, independence and social relations were significantly higher than those in the control group ( t=8.69, 6.32, 5.76, P<0.01). After treatment, levels of plasma specific viscosity, fibrinogen and ESR in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=13.59, 8.30, 8.80, P<0.01). After treatment, levels of serum cTnT [(33.45±3.44) mg/L vs. ( 39.71±4.02) mg/L, t=8.37], CK [(70.49±7.32) U/L vs. (82.15±8.41) U/L, t=7.40] and BNP [(223.41±20.36) ng/L vs. (244.58±20.74) ng/L, t=5.15] in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01). The disappearance time of palpitation, chest tightness and dizziness in the observation group was significantly earlier than those in the control group ( t=10.44, 11.91, 5.75, P<0.01). During treatment, differences in incidence of adverse reactions between observation group and control group was statistically significant [4.0% (2/50) vs. 32.0% (16/50); χ2=4.00, P=0.046]. Conclusion:The modified Fired Glycyrrhizae Decoction combined with routine western medicine can improve clinical symptoms, hemodynamics and levels of myocardial enzymes in CA patients after BCL surgery, and improve the clinical curative effect.
