ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Shenqi Yiliu prescription reverses cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer cells by regulating the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway-mediated glycolysis. MethodsThe human ovarian cancer A2780 cell line was intervened with progressively increasing doses of cisplatin （1 g·L^-1） to establish the cisplatin-resistant cell line A2780cisR， and the cell sensitivity to cisplatin was examined by the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay. High， medium， and low （39.9， 19.95， 9.98 g·kg^-1） doses of Shenqi Yiliu prescription-containing sera were used to treat A2780cisR cells for 48 h. Glucose consumption and lactate production were measured by the cuvette assay. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to determine the activities of glucose transporter （GLUT）， phosphofructokinase （PFK）， and pyruvate kinase （PK）. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling （TUNEL） staining was used to detect apoptosis. Western blot was employed to quantify the protein levels of phosphorylated （p）-PI3K， p-Akt， p-mTOR， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2）， B-cell lymphoblastoma-2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X-protein （Bax）， and B-lymphoblastoma-2 gene-related promoter （Bad）. Real-time PCR was conducted to determine the mRNA levels of HK2， PKM2， Bax， Bcl-2， and Bad. ResultsThe median inhibitory concentration （IC₅₀） of cisplatin on A2780cisR cells was nearly 3 times that on A2780P cells. Compared with A2780P cells， A2780cisR cells showed increased glucose consumption， lactate production， GLUT， PFK， and PK activities， and mRNA and protein levels of p-PI3K， Akt， p-mTOR， HK2， PKM2， Bax （P<0.05）， and decreased apoptosis rate and Bcl-2 expression （P<0.05）. Compared with A2780cisR cells， medium- and high-dose Shenqi Yiliu prescription reduced the glucose consumption， lactate production， GLUT， PFK， and PK activities， and mRNA and protein levels of p-PI3K， Akt， p-mTOR， HK2， PKM2， Bax， and Bad （P<0.05）， while increasing the apoptosis rate and Bcl-2 expression （P<0.05）. ConclusionShenqi Yiliu prescription can inhibit glycolysis mediated by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway to promote apoptosis， thereby reversing cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer cells.

Calcitonin-negative medullary thyroid carcinoma(CNMTC)is a rare subtype of medullary thyroid carcinoma,characterized by normal serum calcitonin levels,which often leads to misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis.The pathogenesis of CNMTC remains unclear and may involve impaired secretion mechanisms or assay-related false negatives.Diagnostic approaches include ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration cytology,serum CEA and ProGRP measurements,and RET gene testing.Surgical resection remains the mainstay of treatment,while neoadjuvant therapy may be considered in selected cases.This review summarizes recent advances in the understanding,diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of CNMTC,aiming to provide clinical guidance for better management of this challenging condition.

Aim To investigate the role of miR-130b-3p in regulating the USP47/NLRP3 inflammasome in airway remodeling associated with asthma and to explore its potential therapeutic value in asthma treat-ment.Methods An OVA-induced asthma mouse mod-el was established,and intervention with miR-130b-3p agomir was performed.Histological staining,quantita-tive real-time PCR,Western blot,immunofluorescence and flow cytometry were used to analyze the effects of miR-130b-3p on the expression of USP47,NLRP3,and related inflammatory factors,as well as the inflamma-some activity.Results miR-130b-3p was significantly downregulated in asthmatic mice,and its intervention significantly inhibited airway epithelial damage,inflam-matory cell infiltration,and collagen deposition.Addi-tionally,miR-130b-3p targeted USP47 and indirectly suppressed NLRP3 expression,leading to reduced in-flammasome activity and alleviated asthma-related in-flammatory responses.Conclusion miR-130b-3p re-duces asthma-related inflammatory responses by down-regulating USP47 expression and indirectly inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activity.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To investigate the association of systemic immune-inflammation index(SII)and serum cysta-tin C(CysC)with the severity of acute pulmonary embolism(APE),and their predictive value for prognosis.Meth-ods:A total of 181 patients who were first diagnosed with APE in Cangzhou People's Hospital between January 2018 and January 2023 were retrospectively selected.The severity of APE was determined according to risk stratification criteria for pulmonary embolism,and the patients were divided into low-risk group(n=67),middle-risk group(n=81)and high-risk group(n=33).General clinical data and venous blood neutrophils,platelet and lymphocyte counts,CysC and other indicators were collected,and SII was calculated according to the formula.The relevant in-dicators were compared among three groups,and their correlation with the severity of APE was analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis.According to the prognosis,all APE patients were divided into favorable outcome group(n=129)and unfavorable outcome group(n=52).The general clinical data were compared and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to study the influencing factors of unfavorable outcome in APE patients.The re-ceiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of SII,CysC and their com-bination for the prognosis of APE patients.Nomogram model for prognosis was constructed.Results:Compared with patients in low-risk group,those in the middle-risk group and the high-risk group had significantly higher levels of serum creatinine,CysC and uric acid(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).The SII in the high-risk group was significant-ly higher than those of middle-risk group and low-risk group(P＜0.001 all).Spearman correlation analysis showed that serum creatinine,CysC,uric acid and SII were significant positively correlated with the severity of APE(r=0.356,0.358,0.233,0.353,P＜0.01 all).Compared with patients in the favorable outcome group,those in the unfavorable outcome group had significantly higher levels of D-dimer,serum creatinine,CysC,uric acid and SII(P＜0.01 all).There was a statistically significant difference in the severity of APE between the two groups(P=0.001).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that CysC,SII,and middle or high risk of disease severity were independent risk factors for unfavorable outcome in APE patients(HR=1.001～14.453,P＜0.05 or＜0.01).ROC curve indicated that the AUC of SII,CysC and their combination in predicting unfavorable outcome of APE patients were 0.815(95％CI 0.749～0.881),0.747(95％CI 0.661～0.832)and 0.878(95％CI,0.821～0.936),respectively.The combined AUC of the two was significantly higher than those of SII and CysC alone(Z=-2.234,-3.500,P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Based on the above independent risk factors,the AUC values of the 1-year and 3-year unfavorable outcome nomogram models were 92.9 and 88.2,respectively.The calibration prediction curve and the ideal curve fitted well.The decision curve showed that the model had a good net benefit.Conclusion:SII and CysC are significant positively correlated with the severity of APE and they are independent risk factors for unfavor-able outcome of APE,and the combination of the two indicators has a good predictive value for the prognosis of APE.The nomogram constructed has good accuracy and practicability.

This paper Summarizes the experience of national renowned Chinese medical practitioner professor YANG Jun in treating lumbar pain with acupuncture and moxibustion.In the view of professor YANG Jun,the etiology of lumbar pain is various and the pathogensis is complex,of which mainly related to be invaded by external pathogen,meridians obstructing blockage,kidney deficiency due to elderly,less of moistening due to kidney essence deficiency,sprain caused by fall and strike,and blood stasis obstructing meridians,and the syndrome differentiation of lumbar pain usually involves cold-damp obstructing blockage,kidney essence deficiency,and blood stasis blocking collaterals.The waist is the residence of kidney,kidney meridian runs through the spine and connecting it to the kidney,the bladder meridian locates on both sides of the spine and connecting it to the kidney,the circulation of governor vessel(GV)to the kidney,so the pathogensis of lumbar pain is closely related to kidney,bladder meridian,governor vessel.The basic pathogensis of lumbar pain is meridian qiand blood stasis stagnation,or the meridian less of moistening due to kidney essence deficiency,both of which cause pain.The main therapeutic principle for lumbar pain should be focusing on mind-regulating and meridians-dredging,cold-dispersing and damp-removing,kidney-boosting and blood-activating,as well as collateral-unblocking and pain-relieving,combining the lumbosacral spinal tri-needling,regulating the bladder meridian with moxibustion and electro-acupuncture,thus to achieve the optimal quantitative and effective state.

Objective To reveal the development characteristics of fat percentage and muscle mass in three nomadic populations in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu.Methods Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to determine the values of 13 indexes of fat percentage and muscle mass in 263 cases of Gansu Kazakhs,400 cases of Gansu Mongols,and 362 cases of Yugu adults.Results In the three nomadic populations of the Hexi Corridor,visceral fat level of males was significantly positively correlated with age,while total body muscle mass and estimated bone mass were significantly negatively correlated with age.In females,percent body fat,visceral fat grade,percent left and right upper limb fat,percent right lower limb fat and percent trunk fat were all significantly positively correlated with age,while trunk muscle mass was significantly negatively correlated with age.The result of principal component analysis showed that the three nomadic populations in the Hexi Corridor were close to each other in terms of fat percentage and muscle mass characteristics,with high visceral fat grades in males and normal visceral fat grade in females.Among the 13 populations,three nomadic groups in the Hexi Corridor had high fat percentage and muscle mass.Overall,the nomadic population had greater fat percentage and muscle mass than the semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral population,and even more significantly greater than the agrarian population.The long-term integration of the historical Hexi Corridor populations result ed in the relative proximity of the genetic structure of three nomadic populations,which was a genetic factor for the proximity of their fat percentage and muscle mass.Higher per capita disposable income was a socio-economic factor for high fat percentage and muscle mass among Gansu Kazakhs and Gansu Mongolians.Low average annual temperature was an environmental factor for high muscle mass among Gansu Kazakhs and Yugus.Conclusion Gansu Kazakhs,Gansu Mongols,and Yugus have the fat percentage and muscle mass characteristic of northern Chinese populations.

Avian coccidiosis, an acute parasitic disease that mainly harms chicks, is widely prevalent across the world, which poses a serious threat to poultry industry. Because of the single prophylactic formulations, veterinary clinical treatment of coccidiosis mainly relies on chemically synthesized agents, polyether ionophores and Chinese herbal medicines. The introduction of novel anticoccidial drugs is slow for a long period of time, and there is an increasing problem of anticoccidial drug resistance following long-term use, which has become an urgent problem to be solved in poultry industry. This review summarizes the levels of anticoccidial drug resistance across China from 2018 to 2023, and analyzes the resistance to various anticoccidial agents in coccidia. It is indicated that the overall prevalence of anticoccidial drug resistance is high in coccidia, and development of novel anticoccidial agents and products with reduced antibiotics use and alternatives of antibiotics is of an urgent need.
