ObjectiveThis study aims to analyze animal models of anxiety disorder based on the clinical characteristics of anxiety disorder in traditional Chinese and Western medicine， systematically assess the clinical compatibility， and provide suggestions for the construction of animal models with a high degree of clinical compatibility between traditional Chinese and Western medicine. MethodsRelevant literature on animal models of anxiety disorder was retrieved from global databases. Scoring scales were developed according to the etiology， pathogenesis， and diagnostic criteria of anxiety disorder in both traditional Chinese and Western medicine. The animal models of anxiety disorder in the literature were analyzed， and their clinical compatibility was systematically assessed to identify reference-worthy models. ResultsThe average clinical compatibility of existing animal models of anxiety disorder was 42.13% for traditional Chinese medicine and 50.94% for Western medicine. Among these， the chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS） model had the highest compatibility with both traditional Chinese and Western medicine. However， current models rarely reflect the clinical syndromes of traditional Chinese medicine in depth， and show limitations in syndrome differentiation. ConclusionThe existing animal models of anxiety disorder are mostly established using single-factor approaches， which fail to comprehensively simulate the onset process and physiopathological characteristics of anxiety disorder. These models also neglect the syndrome-based indicators emphasized in traditional Chinese medicine. In the future， the model development should incorporate the clinical characteristics of syndromes in both traditional Chinese and Western medicine， establish standardized evaluation criteria for anxiety disorder models， and utilize multifactorial approaches to enhance the representativeness of animal models in traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of immunomodulatory effects of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(UC-MSCs)modified by miR-125b-5p on systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE).Methods:The expression level of miR-125b-5p was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR in UC-MSCs and peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)from SLE patients and health checkers.Annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis detection kit was used to detect the effect of miR-125b-5p on apoptosis of UC-MSCs.MRL/lpr mice in each group were injected with UC-MSCs via tail vein,and T-lymphocyte subsets in the spleen of the MRL/lpr mice were detected by flow cytometry after 5 weeks.The expression levels of interleukin(IL)-4 and IL-17A in serum of MRL/lpr mice were detected by ELISA.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological manifestations of the lungs and kidneys of the MRL/lpr mice.Results:miR-125b-5p was significantly down-regulated in PBMCs of SLE patients compared with healthy controls(P＜0.01).Compared with the UC-MSCs group,the expression of miR-125b-5p in UC-MSCs modified by miR-125b-5p group was increased(P＜0.01).The survival rate of UC-MSCs was significantly increased by miR-125b-5p(P＜0.01).Compared with the untreated group of MRL/lpr mice,the expression level of IL-4 in serum was increased(P＜0.05);the expression level of IL-17A was decreased(P＜0.05);the proportion of Th17 cells in the spleen of MRL/lpr mice was decreased(P＜0.05);the inflammatory cells infiltration and micro-thrombosis of lungs and kidneys of MRL/lpr mice were significantly reduced in the UC-MSCs modified by miR-125b-5p treatment group.Conclusion:UC-MSCs modified by miR-125b-5p have immunomodulatory effects on systemic lupus erythematosus.

Objective:Bacterial liver abscess is one of the common infectious diseases of the digestive system.Invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess syndrome(IKLAS)refers to cases where,in addition to liver abscess,there are migratory infections foci or other invasive manifestations.The clinical characteristics and risk factors of IKLAS are not fully elucidated,and there is a lack of research on the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of different treatment methods.This study aims to compare the clinical characteristics of patients with IKLAS and non-IKLAS,and explore effective and economical treatment methods. Methods:This retrospective study collected medical records of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae liver abscess treated at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2010 to December 2023.A total of 201 patients were included,dividing into an IKLAS group(n=37)and a non-IKLAS group(n=164).Differences in demographics,symptoms and signs,laboratory indicators,imaging characteristics,comorbidities,treatment methods,treatment outcomes,and direct treatment costs between 2 groups were analyzed.The study also compared the effectiveness and costs of different treatment methods. Results:Compared with the non-IKLAS group,the proportion of patients with diabetes,Quick Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(qSOFA)≥2,immune deficiency,anemia,and thrombocytopenia in the IKLAS group was higher,and the level of procalcitonin at the onset in the IKLAS group was also higher(all P<0.05).In terms of symptoms and signs,the IKLAS group had a higher proportion of visual abnormalities and a lower proportion of complaints of abdominal pain(both P<0.05).In terms of complications,the incidence of combined pleural effusion,pulmonary infection,acute renal failure,respiratory failure,and multiple organ failure was higher in the IKLAS group(all P<0.05).The IKLAS group had a higher proportion of patients treated with antibiotics alone(24.32%vs 11.59%),while the non-IKLAS group had a higher proportion of patients treated with antibiotics combined with puncture and drainage(86.59%vs 64.86%,both P<0.05).The overall effective rate of the IKLAS group(83.78%)was lower than that of the non-IKLAS group(95.73%),and the treatment and drug costs were higher(all P<0.05).The treatment method of antibiotics combined with surgical resection of infectious foci showed a 100%improvement rate,antibiotics combined with abscess puncture and drainage had an 84.9%improvement rate,and in antibiotics alone had an 82.1%improvement rate,with statistical differences among the 3 treatment methods(P<0.05).In terms of treatment costs,antibiotics alone were the most expensive(P<0.05). Conclusion:Patients with IKLAS have poorer prognosis and higher direct medical costs.The combination of abscess puncture and drainage or surgery has a higher improvement rate and lower hospitalization costs compared to antibiotics alone,suggesting that surgical intervention may reduce antibiotic costs and save medical expenses.

Objective:To summarize the best evidence of thirst management in peripheral surgical patients in China, and to provide theoretical basis for clinical thirst management.Methods:According to the PIPOST model, research questions were raised. According to the "6S" model, literature published by various guide websites, evidence-based databases, original research databases and professional association websites at home and abroad from database establishment to January 30, 2022 were systematically retrieved. Two researchers independently evaluated the quality of the literature and extracted and integrated the evidence of the literature that met the quality standards. The research team graded the evidence and determined the recommendation level.Results:A total of 15 literatures were selected, including 2 systematic reviews, 3 clinical decisions and 10 randomized controlled trials (RCTS) . A total of 23 evidences were sorted out, including 8 aspects such as drug factors affecting thirst, thirst assessment tools, preoperative thirst intervention strategy, postoperative safe drinking water assessment, postoperative thirst intervention strategy, nursing observation, health education and precautions.Conclusions:In the absence of uniform standards for perioperative thirst management, the evidence summarized in this study can provide evidence-based evidence for clinical nursing work.

Objective:To investigate the effects of placenta previa on the surgical and pregnancy outcomes in patients with total/subtotal or segmental hysterectomy attributed to placenta accreta spectrum disorders (PAS).Methods:This study retrospectively enrolled 510 patients who gave birth and underwent total/subtotal hysterectomy or segmental hysterectomy (local implantation site) due to PAS at the third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from January 1, 2017, to December 31, 2022. These subjects were divided into the placenta previa group (427 cases) and non-placenta previa group (83 cases). According to the type of hysterectomy, they were further divided into the total/subtotal hysterectomy and placenta previa subgroup (221 cases), total/subtotal hysterectomy and non-placenta previa subgroup (23 cases), segmental hysterectomy and placenta previa subgroup (206 cases), and segmental hysterectomy and non-placenta previa subgroup (60 cases). Nonparametric test or Chi-square test were used to compare the differences in the clinical features, surgical and pregnancy outcomes between different groups. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the effects of placenta previa on the risk of additional surgical procedures and adverse maternal outcomes. Results:(1) Compared with the non-placenta previa group, the hemorrhage volume within 24 h postpartum [1 541 ml (1 036-2 368 ml) vs 1 111 ml (695-2 000 ml), Z=－3.91] and the proportion of women requiring additional surgical procedures [84.8% (362/427) vs 69.9% (58/83), χ2=10.61], with total/subtotal hysterectomy [51.8% (221/427) vs 27.7% (23/83), χ2=16.10], cystoscopy and/or ureteral stenting [60.7% (259/427) vs 31.3% (26/83), χ2=24.25], total adverse pregnancy outcomes [86.9% (371/427) vs 65.1% (54/83), χ2=17.75], hemorrhage volume>1 500 ml within 24 h postpartum [54.1% (231/427) vs 33.7% (28/83), χ2=29.94], transfusion of blood products [75.9% (324/427) vs 47.0% (39/83), χ2=28.27] were all higher in the placenta previa group (all P<0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis found that for PAS patients with hysterectomy, regardless of the hysterectomy type (total/subtotal/segmental), placenta previa was risk factor for requiring additional surgical procedures ( aOR=3.26, 95% CI: 1.85-5.72) and adverse pregnancy outcomes ( aOR=5.59, 95% CI: 2.01-6.42), even if adjusting for the confounding factors such as maternal age, number of previous cesarean sections, parity, gestational weight gain, twin pregnancy, and the use of assisted reproductive technology. (2) In patients with total/subtotal hysterectomy, the proportion of women requiring additional surgical procedures was higher in those with placenta previa [82.8% (183/221) vs 56.5% (13/23), χ2=9.11] than those without placenta previa, especially the proportion of cystoscopy and/or ureteral stenting [67.9% (150/221) vs 34.8% (8/23), χ2=9.99] (both P<0.05). However, no significant difference was found in adverse pregnancy outcomes [89.6% (198/221) vs 87.0% (20/23), χ2<0.01, P=0.972] between the two groups. In patients with segmental hysterectomy, higher proportions of women requiring additional surgery [86.9% (179/206) vs 75.0% (45/60), χ2=4.94], with adverse pregnancy outcomes [84.0% (173/206) vs 56.7% (34/60), χ2=25.31], cystoscopy and/or ureteral stenting [52.9% (109/206) vs 30.0% (18/60), χ2=9.78], vascular occlusion [94.2% (194/206) vs 71.7% (43/60), χ2=24.23], hemorrhage volume>1 500 ml within 24 h postpartum [46.6% (96/206) vs 23.3% (14/60), χ2=10.37], and transfusion of blood products [68.9% (142/206) vs 33.3% (20/60), χ2=24.73] were found in the placenta previa group (all P<0.05). Furthermore, patients with placenta previa had more hemorrhage volume within 24 h postpartum [1 368 ml (970-2 026 ml) vs 995 ml (654-1 352 ml), Z=－3.66, P<0.001] in the segmental hysterectomy subgroup. After adjusting for the confounding factors such as age, number of previous cesarean sections, parity, gestational weight gain, twin pregnancy, and the use of assisted reproductive technology, binary logistic regression analysis found that placenta previa did not increase the risk of additional surgical operations ( aOR=2.71, 95% CI: 0.99-7.42) and adverse pregnancy outcomes ( aOR=2.14, 95% CI: 0.54-8.42) in patients with total/subtotal hysterectomy but were risk factors of the two outcomes for those with segmental hysterectomy ( aOR=4.67, 95% CI: 2.15-10.10; aOR=3.80, 95% CI: 1.86-7.77). Conclusions:Placenta previa increases the risk of additional surgical procedures and adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with total/subtotal or segmental hysterectomy caused by PAS. Appropriate preparation is required after the clinical diagnosis of PAS with placenta previa.

Objective:To investigate whether the number of previous cesarean sections affects the outcomes of patients with placental implantation disease undergoing hysterectomy.Methods:Using a retrospective cohort study design, the study samples were from the obstetric clinical database of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, and the study subjects were patients with placental implantation disease who underwent hysterectomy. Patients were grouped according to different previous cesarean section frequencies, and their clinical characteristics, surgical outcomes, and adverse maternal outcomes were compared in each group; The impact of previous cesarean sections on adverse outcomes in pregnant women was analyzed using multivariate logistic regression.Results:Among the 244 enrolled patients, 26 had no previous history of cesarean section (11%), 132 had a previous cesarean section once (54%), and 86 had a previous cesarean section ≥2 times (35%). There was no statistically significant difference in the usage rates of uterine artery embolization, suture hemostasis, and internal iliac artery embolization among the three groups of patients (all P>0.05). Among the adverse outcomes of pregnant and postpartum women, there was no statistically significant difference in the rates of shock, bladder injury, postpartum hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage >1 500 ml, admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), and transfusion of blood products among the three groups (all P>0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the number of previous cesarean sections did not increase the risk of adverse outcomes, such as shock, postpartum hemorrhage, postpartum hemorrhage ≥1 500 ml, entry into the ICU, and transfusion of blood products. Multivariate logistic regression analysis found that the number of previous cesarean sections did not increase the risk of adverse outcomes in pregnant women. Conclusions:For patients with placental implantation disease undergoing hysterectomy, the number of previous cesarean sections may not be the main factor determining maternal outcomes. It is necessary to consider other possible influencing factors more comprehensively, including previous uterine surgery history, basic health status of pregnant women, comorbidities, and availability of medical resources.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical data of Chinese patients with colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R)-related leukoencephalopathy, and clarify the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of Chinese patients.Methods:Medical history of patients with CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy diagnosed from April 1, 2018 to January 31, 2021 in the department of neurology of 22 hospitals in China was collected, and scores of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), magnetic resonance severity scale were evaluated. Group comparison was performed between male and female patients.Results:A total of 62 patients were included, and the male-female ratio was 1∶1.95. The age of onset was (40.35±8.42) years. Cognitive impairment (82.3%, 51/62) and motor symptoms (77.4%,48/62) were the most common symptoms. The MMSE and MoCA scores were 18.79±7.16 and 13.96±7.23, respectively, and the scores of two scales in male patients (22.06±5.31 and 18.08±5.60) were significantly higher than those in females (15.53±7.41 , t=2.954, P=0.006; 10.15±6.26, t=3.328 , P=0.003). The most common radiographic feature was bilateral asymmetric white matter changes (100.0%), and the magnetic resonance imaging severity scale score was 27.42±11.40, while the white matter lesion score of females (22.94±8.39) was significantly higher than that of males (17.62±8.74 , t=-2.221, P<0.05). A total of 36 CSF1R gene mutations were found in this study, among which c.2381T>C/p.I794T was the hotspot mutation that carried by 17.9% (10/56) of the probands. Conclusions:The core phenotypic characteristics of CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy in China are progressive motor and cognitive impairment, with bilateral asymmetrical white matter changes. In addition, there exist gender differences clinically, with severer cognitive impairment and imaging changes in female patients. Thirty-six CSF1R gene mutations were found in this study, and c.2381T>C/p. I794T was the hotspot mutation.

In recent years, PET-CT has an increasing importance in the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer. PET-CT scan can be used as a noninvasive method for molecular subtyping of breast cancer, and prediction of therapeutic effect and prognosis of patients. Studies have revealed that luminal A subtype has a significantly lower maximum standard intake value (SUVmax) than the other subtypes; triple-negative and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) positive tumors have relatively high SUVmax than luminal B subtype, but the specificity and sensitivity of SUVmax in diagnosis of molecular subtypes are very low, so its clinical application is limited. In predicting the effectiveness of the treatment and the prognosis of the patients, the decreased uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) is correlated with better therapeutic effect. In addition, patients with high FDG uptake have worse survival outcomes. New tracers, such asF-fluoroestradiol (F-FES) and[89Zr]trastuzumab play an important role in molecular subtyping of breast cancer.F-FES PET-CT can effectively evaluate the estrogen receptor (ER) status of breast cancer and the response to endocrine therapy.[89Zr]trastuzumab PET-CT can evaluate the expression of HER2 and localization of HER2-overexpressing tumors, but their specificities and sensitivities are also low. In this article, we review the recent advances on the correlation of PET-CT findings with molecular subtypes, treatment response and prognosis of breast cancer.

AIM:To explore the influences of semaphorin 3A (Sema 3A) on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced injury in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).METHODS:Sema 3A over-expression vectors were constructed and transfected into the HUVECs by Lipofectamine 2000, and the over-expression effect was verified by qPCR and Western blot.The HUVECs in different groups were treated with or without 200 μmol/L H2O2 for 4 h.The levels of inflammatory cytokines were measured by qPCR.The levels of lactic dehydrogenase (LDH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected by corresponding colorimetry.The cell viability was measured by MTT assay.The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry.The levels of apoptosis-related proteins cleaved caspase-3 and Bcl-2 were determined by Western blot.RESULTS:H2O2 induced inflammatory cytokine secretion, increased the levels of LDH and MDA, decreased SOD activity and cell viability, and increased cell apoptosis in the HUVECs.Over-expression of Sema 3A enhanced the above processes.No injury effect of Sema 3A over-expression on HUVECs without H2O2 treatment was observed, indicating that the injury effects of Sema 3A on HUVECs depended on H2O2.CONCLUSION:Sema 3A markedly enhances H2O2-induced injury in the HUVECs, which depends on H2O2.Sema 3A may promote oxidative stress-caused endothelial cell injury.
