ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanisms of electroacupuncture at Fengchi （GB 20）， Waiguan （TE 5）， and Yanglingquan （GB 34） in treating chronic migraine from the perspective of nociceptive sensitization. MethodsForty SPF-grade SD rats were randomly divided into blank group， model group， electroacupuncture group， electroacupuncture + agonist group， and inhibitor group， with 8 rats in each group. Except for the blank group， rats were injected intraperitoneally with nitroglycerin to establish a chronic migraine rat model. After successful modeling， the electroacupuncture group received electroacupuncture at bilateral "Fengchi" （GB 20）， "Waiguan" （TE 5）， and "Yanglingquan" （GB 34） for 30 minutes each session. The electroacupuncture + agonist group received the same electroacupuncture treatment and additional injection of protein kinase C （PKC） agonist Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate （1.0 ng/μl， 25 μl） via the infraorbital foramen. The inhibitor group received PKC inhibitor Chelerythrine Chloride （1.0 ng/μl， 10 μl） via the infraorbital foramen. The blank group， model group， and inhibitor group underwent restraint for 30 minutes without other interventions. All groups were continuously intervened for 5 days. After the intervention， the nociceptive thresholds （mechanical and thermal pain） of the periorbital area and hind paw were measured. The expression levels of transient receptor potential vanillic acid subtype 1 （TRPV1）， phosphorylated TRPV1 （p-TRPV1）， PKC proteins， Trpv1， Pkc mRNA， and the average fluorescence intensity of transient receptor potential vanillic acid subtype 1 （TRPV1） and PKC in the trigeminal ganglion were detected using Western Blot， real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR， and immunofluorescence methods. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the mechanical and thermal pain thresholds of the periorbital area and hind paw were reduced in the model group， and the protein levels of TRPV1， PKC， p-TRPV1， as well as the mRNA expression of Trpv1 and Pkc， and the average fluorescence intensity of TRPV1 and PKC in the trigeminal ganglion significantly increased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， the electroacupuncture group exhibited increased mechanical and thermal pain thresholds in the periorbital and hind paw areas， and decreased protein levels of TRPV1， PKC， p-TRPV1， mRNA expression of Trpv1 and Pkc， and average fluorescence intensity of TRPV1. In the electroacupuncture + agonist group， the average fluorescence intensity of TRPV1 in the trigeminal ganglion decreased. The inhibitor group exhibited increased mechanical pain thresholds in the periorbital area and thermal pain thresholds in the hind paw， along with decreased protein levels of TRPV1， PKC， p-TRPV1， and the average fluorescence intensity of TRPV1 and PKC （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the electroacupuncture group， the electroacupuncture + agonist group showed an increase in the protein levels of TRPV1， PKC， p-TRPV1， and the mRNA expression of Trpv1 （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionElectroacupuncture at the "Fengchi" （GB 20）， "Waiguan" （TE 5）， and "Yanglingquan" （GB 34） acupoints can increase the mechanical and thermal pain thresholds in chronic migraine rats and alleviate nociceptive sensitization. The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of PKC/TRPV1 pathway.

Objective: To explore the causal link of cumulative ecological risk and future orientation with health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students, so as to provide reference for reducing and preventing health risk behaviors among higher vocational college students. Methods: A longitudinal follow up study was conducted on 612 students using convenience sampling from 2 vocational colleges in Hunan Province. The Cumulative Ecological Risk Scale, Future Orientation Scale, and Health Risk Behavior Scale were used during three follow up visits (T1: September 2022, T2: June 2023, T3: March 2024), and a cross lagged panel model was constructed to examine the longitudinal causal relationship of cumulative ecological risk, future orientation and health risk behaviors. Analysis of longitudinal intermediary effect between variables by Bootstrap. Results: The cumulative ecological risk scores of T1, T2 and T3 among higher vocational college students were (2.94±1.44,2.99±1.63,3.02±1.54), future orientation scores (40.49±4.71,41.51±5.72,41.06±4.35) and health risk behavior scores (3.73±2.01,3.49±2.00,3.23±2.00). The results of repeated measures ANOVA showed that the future orientation score of T2 was higher than that of T1, and the main effect of measurement time was statistically significant ( F=5.09，P＜0.01,η 2=0.02). The health risk behavior score of T1 was higher than that of T2, and the health risk behavior score of T2 was higher than that of T3, and the main effect of measurement time was statistically significant ( F=10.12，P＜0.01,η 2=0.03).The cross lagged model showed good adaptability, with χ 2/df =7.20 ( P <0.01), relative fitting indicators GFI=0.98, CFI=0.99, TLI=0.96, IFI=0.99, NFI =0.99, and absolute fitting indicator RMSEA =0.06. Among them, the T1, T2 cumulative ecological risk showed negatively predictive effects on T2, T3 future orientation ( β =-0.24, -0.47 ), and T1, T2 cumulative ecological risk positively predicted T2, T3 health risk behavior ( β =0.20, 0.24), while T1, T2 future orientation negatively predicted T2, T3 health risk behavior ( β =-0.25, -0.18) ( P ＜0.01). Bootstrap test analysis found that T2 future orientation had a longitudinal mediating effect ( β=0.04, P ＜0.01) on the T1 cumulative ecological risk and T3 health risk behavior. Conclusions The accumulation of ecological risk among higher vocational college students can positively predict health risk behaviors, while future orientation can negatively predict healthrisk behaviors. Moreover, future orientation plays a longitudinal mediating role between accumulated ecological risks and health risk behaviors.

Objective To preliminarily evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a novel non-implantable atrial shunt device based on radiofrequency ablation for the treatment of chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods This was a prospective single-arm study.From January 2023 to December 2023,five eligible CHF patients were consecutively enrolled at Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University,and underwent inter-atrial shunt using Shenzhen Betterway atrial shunt device.Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure(PCWP),right atrial pressure(RAP),pulmonary artery pressure(PAP),total pulmonary resistance(TPR),pulmonary vascular resistance(PVR),and pulmonary/systemic blood flow ratio(Qp/Qs)were measured using right heart catheterization before and immediately after procedure.Patients were followed up for 90 days,and echocardiography,right heart catheterization,and cardiac functional indicators were evaluated.The primary endpoint was procedural success.Secondary endpoints included clinical success,echocardiographic changes,6-minute walk distance(6MWD)changes,New York Heart Association(NYHA)class changes,Kansas city cardiomyopathy questionnaire(KCCQ)score changes,and amino-terminal probrain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)level changes at 90 days.The safety endpoint was major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events and device-related adverse events.Results All five patients successfully achieved left-to-right atrial shunt.Compared with baseline,PCWP decreased significantly immediately after procedure in all five patients,with a procedural success rate of 100％.There were no significant changes in RAP,PAP,TPR,and PVR before and immediately after procedure.After 90 days follow-up,four patients had persistent left-to-right atrial shunt,and PCWP was significantly lower than baseline,with a clinical success rate of 80％.Compared with baseline,LVEF increased,left ventricular end-diastolic diameter decreased,and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion and right ventricular fractional area change were not impaired in all five patients at 90 days.KCCQ scores and 6MWT improved,NT-proBNP decreased,and NYHA class did not change significantly.There were no deaths,rehospitalizations for heart failure,stroke-related adverse events,or device-related adverse events during the follow-up.Conclusions The novel non-implantable atrial shunt catheter can safely and effectively improve hemodynamic,echocardiographic,and cardiac functional indicators in patients with heart failure.However,larger-scale clinical studies are still needed to validate its long-term clinical effectiveness.

Objective:To analyze the status quo and influencing factors of post-traumatic growth of parents of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) .Methods:The convenient sampling method was used to select parents of children with T1DM who were admitted to the diabetes care consultation clinic of Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University from March 2022 to March 2023 as the research objects. The parents of children were investigated by general information questionnaire, Posttramnatic Growth Inventory, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire and Perceived Social Support Scale.Results:A total of 200 questionnaires were sent out in this study, and 187 were effectively collected, with an effective recovery rate of 93.5% (187/200). The total score of Posttramnatic Growth Inventory for parents of T1DM children was (60.28±18.37). The positive coping score in Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire was (22.40±6.94) and the negative coping score was (8.94±4.58). The total score of Perceived Social Support Scale was (57.39±14.57). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that HbA1c, monthly family income, educational level, positive coping strategies and perceived social support were the influencing factors for the post-traumatic growth of parents of T1DM children, explaining 33.8% of the variation in post-traumatic growth of parents of T1DM children.Conclusions:The post-traumatic growth of parents of T1DM children is at a moderate level. Medical staff should pay more attention to parents of children with poor blood sugar control, low educational level and low monthly family income, guide them from the perspective of positive psychology, encourage parents to adopt positive and effective coping strategies and emphasize the importance of social support, so as to improve the level of post-traumatic growth of parents of children with T1DM.

Cases of high-temperature requirement A serine peptidase 1(HTRA1)gene heterozygous mutation associated cerebral small vessel disease are relatively rare.Early and timely diagnosis and treatment can improve prognosis.The authors reported a 37 years old male patient admitted in Department of Neurology,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University,whose initial symptom was transient right limb weakness,imaging suggested white matter lesions and the gene screening showed HTRA1(c.854 C＞T/p.Pro285Leu)heterozygous mutation.A family survey has been conducted and the characteristics of patients in this family are as follows:they present with ischemic cerebrovascular disease,coexist with cervical or lumbar disc herniation,male patients have hair loss,some patients have cognitive dysfunction,men tend to develop the disease at an earlier age than women,and the onset age is progressively earlier from generation to generation.Therefore,for young ischemic cerebrovascular disease patients with hair loss,cognitive dysfunction,cervical or lumbar disc herniation,and obvious white matter lesions on imaging,especially those without common risk factors for cerebrovascular disease,a family history should be inquired and genetic testing should be performed to screen for HTRA1 mutations.

Confirmed cases of Lyme disease(LD)in Ji'an City,Jiangxi Province and the clinical manifestations and region-al distribution were assessed to provide a basis for timely diagnosis and treatment.In total,133 serum samples were collected from patients with suspected LD in Ji'an Central People's Hospital from December 2021 to August 2022.Serum antibodies a-gainst Borrelia burgdorferi were detected with a two-step testing process.In addition,a specific gene of B.burgdorferi in samples was identified by nested PCR.Sequencing analysis was conducted to confirm the positive samples.Overall,25(18.80％)serum samples were positive for B.burgdorferi nucleic acid and antibodies,which included 20(15.04％)positive for antibodies and 6(4.51％)positive for nucleic acids.The sequences of the 5S-23S rRNA gene spacer of 6 samples were con-sistent with the corresponding sequences of Borrelia yangtzensis and one of the six samples was also positive for antibodies.The 25 positive samples were collected from 9 counties in Ji'an City,with the majority in Jizhou District(44％).All positive patients may experience symptoms related to LD,including joint disorders,neurological disorders,infectious fever,der-matitis,and/or chest pain.The most common symptom was joint disorders(72％).Six cases positive for B.yangtzensis nucleic acids were mainly collected in the Jizhou District,of which four had joint lesions and two had infectious fever.This study confirms the existence of LD in Jiangxi Province,which may be the first confirmation of human infection with B.yan-gtzensis in southern China.Hence,doctors in this region should consider the possibility of LD for cases presenting with related symptoms.Although LD may occur in this region,further investigations and monitoring are warranted.

This study investigated the epidemiological and genotypic characteristics of group A rotavirus(RVA)in children under 5 years of age with diarrhea at a viral diarrhea surveillance sentinel hospital in Guangdong Province from 2021 to 2022,to provide a basis for RVA prevention and control.A total of 1 858 fecal samples from children under 5 years of age with diarrhea in 2021-2022 were collected.Rotavirus antigen was detected with ELISA,and positive samples were further sequenced and categorized.Among the 1 858 samples,156 were RVA positive.The positivity rates in boys and girls were 8.76％and 7.87％,respectively.Significant differences were observed in the detection rates of RVA infection among age groups.The rate of RVA infection increased gradually from December to April of the following year.In 2021,the main endemic strains of RVA in the Guangdong region were of the G9P[8]subtype,and the rare G8P[8]subtype increased in China.In 2022,the G8P[8]subtype surpassed the G9P[8]subtype for the first time.In cases of diarrhea in infants younger than 5 years in Guangdong Province from 2021 to 2022,the RVA genotypes were diverse,the G9P[8]genotype significantly decreased,and the G8P[8]subtype became a dominant genotype.Continuous RVA genotype monitoring remains necessary to assess the risk of RVA-related disea-ses.

Objective:To study the epidemiological and genetic characteristics of coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) circulating in Guangdong Province from 2008 to 2021.Methods:This study collected the specimens of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) cases from 2008 to 2021 that were positive for other enteroviruses except for enterovirus 71 (EV71), coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16), and CVA6, as well as the specimens of herpangina and neonatal infection cases from 2020 to 2021. Enteroviruses in these specimens were detected and their types were identified. CVB3 strains were isolated and the entire VP1 sequences of CVB3 strains were amplified and sequenced. The genetic features of CVB3 strains were analyzed using DNAStar 7.1 and MEGA 6.06 software packages.Results:Among 3 484 HFMD cases positive for other enteroviruses from 2008 to 2021, CVB3-positive cases accounted for 1.6% (57/3 484); among 560 cases of herpangina from 2020 to 2021, CVB3-positive cases accounted for 2.1% (12/560); one neonatal infection case in 2021 was positive for CVB3. CVB3-positive cases accounted for 67.1% (47/70) in 2021 and 18.6% (13/70) in 2020, while there were less than five cases in other years. Forty-eight CVB3 strains were isolated and the entire VP1 sequences of 26 CVB3 strains were obtained. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the CVB3 strains could be divided into eight genotypes (A-H) and the strains of genotypes A, D and E were prevalent in the Chinese mainland. The 26 CVB3 strains isolated in Guangdong Province shared 80.2%-100.0% nucleotide homology, and belonged to two genotypes of D and E, with genotype D prevalent from 2008 to 2017 and genotype E prevalent from 2020 to 2021.Conclusions:CVB3 is prevalent sporadically in Guangdong Province from 2008 to 2017, but the epidemic intensity increased during 2020 and 2021. CVB3 strains of genotypes D and E are prevalent in Guangdong Province during 2008 to 2021, with genotype E being the prevalent genotype during 2020 and 2021.

Objective This study aimed to clarify the anti-influenza virus activity of Bingyanqing(BYQ),as well as to explore the mechanism of BYQ in treating influenza through network pharmacology and experimental verification.Methods The impact of BYQ on mortality,lung index,and viral load in an influenza mouse model was detected.We collected the ingredients and targets of BYQ formula by searching databases including TCMSP,Swiss Target Prediction and consulting the literature.The"ingredients-common target"network for anti-influenza effect of BYQ was constructed using Cytoscape software.The protein-protein interaction(PPI)network was constructed using the STRING database and Cytoscape software,and the core targets were screened.Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analyses were performed for common targets.The effect of BYQ on reducing influenza-induced oxidative damage,the expression of antioxidant and pro-oxidant enzyme,P65 phosphorylation and nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)nuclear translocation in vivo were investigated.Results BYQ significantly reduced mortality,lung index,pulmonary viral load and lung injury in a mouse model of influenza.We obtained one hundred and ninety-three of BYQ active compounds,which corresponded to three hundred and thirty-eight targets.There are 180 influenza-related targets among them.Nine targets,including IκBα kinase α(CHUK),IκBα kinase γ(IKBKG),NF-κB p65(RELA),tumor necrosis factor(TNF)and interleukin 6(IL6),were identified as potential core targets.GO analysis indicated that BYQ is involved in several biological functions,including antibacterial and antioxidant stress responses.KEGG analysis revealed the involvement of several viral and immune-related pathways for BYQ in treating influenza,including herpes simplex virus,influenza A virus,TNFα and toll-like receptor pathways.In vivo studies showed that high-dose BYQ significantly reduced pulmonary malondialdehyde(MDA)levels(P＜0.01)and increased total superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity(P＜0.001)in a mouse mode of influenza compared to oseltamivir phosphate.The treatment group with the combination of BYQ&oseltamivir phosphate had lower levels of NADPH oxidase 2(NOX2)and 4(NOX4)(P＜0.001),and higher levels of catalase(CAT)and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)(P＜0.001)in the lungs than oseltamivir phosphate group.The combined treatment group showed more significant Nrf2 nuclear translocation(P＜0.05)than the oseltamivir phosphate group.However,there was no significant difference in P65 phosphorylation levels between the combination treatment group and the oseltamivir phosphate group(P＜0.05),but P65 phosphorylation levels in both groups were lower than in the model group(P＜0.05).Conclusion BYQ exhibits significant anti-influenza virus activity,manifests a dual effect by inhibiting the synthesis of pro-oxidant enzymes and promoting the antioxidant system,thereby alleviates the oxidative stress damage caused by influenza.

Objective To explore the correlation between colorectal cancer tissue Janus kinase 2(JAK2)gene mutations and T cytokine 3(TCF3)protein expression with clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis,and to provide laboratory reference indicators for early evaluation of the illness severity and prognosis of colorectal cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 50 colorectal cancer patients who were admitted from January 2016 to April 2021 and retained colon cancer and adjacent tissue wax blocks.Basic information,clinical and pathological features such as TNM staging,lymph node metastasis,and 3-year survival prognosis of the patients were collected.The wax blocks of colon cancer and adjacent tissues of patients were detected,in which Taqman fluorescence probe method was applied to detect the distribution of JAK2 gene at the rs2230724 locus AA,AG,and GG genotypes in colon cancer tissues,and immunohistochemistry method was applied to detect the positive expression rate of TCF3 protein in colon cancer and adjacent tissues.The basic information,JAK2 rs2230724 gene mutation,and TCF3 protein expression of patients with different clinical and pathological characteristics were compared,and the influencing factors of clinical and pathological characteristics of colon cancer was analyzed by logistic regression model.Kaplan Meier survival curve was applied to compare the survival prognosis of patients with JAK2 gene mutations and TCF3 protein expression in colorectal cancer tissue,and Cox regression model was applied to analyze the risk factors affecting the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients.Results The positive expression rate of TCF3 protein in colon cancer tissues was higher than that in adjacent tissues(P＜0.05).The age,BMI,proportion of GG genotype at rs2230724 locus of JAK2 gene and positive expression rate of TCF3 protein in TNM stage Ⅲ colon cancer patients were higher than those in TNM stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients(P＜0.05);The age,BMI,smoking rate,proportion of GG type at the rs2230724 locus of JAK2 gene in colon cancer tissue,and positive expression rate of TCF3 protein in patients with lymph node metastasis were higher than those without lymph node metastasis(P＜0.05);The results of the logistic regression model analysis showed that the influencing factors of clinical pathological features such as TNM staging and lymph node metastasis in colon cancer were age,mutation of JAK2 gene rs2230724 site in colon cancer tissue,and positive expression rate of TCF3 protein(P＜0.05).The Kaplan Meier survival curve analysis showed that patients with JAK2 gene rs2230724 GG genotype and TCF3 protein positivity in colon cancer tissue had higher cumulative all-cause mortality rates(P＜0.05).The results of univariate and multivariate Cox regression model analysis showed that independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of colorectal cancer patients include JAK2 gene rs2230724 site GG type,TCF3 protein positive expression,TNM stage Ⅲ,lymph node metastasis,and age.Conclusion The proportion of JAK2 gene rs2230724 GG type and TCF3 protein expression in colorectal cancer tissues are related to their clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis,and can be used as reference indicators for evaluating clinical pathological characteristics and predicting prognosis of colorectal cancer.
