ObjectiveTo explore the academic characteristics of contemporary renowned Chinese medicine masters in treating diabetic kidney disease （DKD） from the perspectives of principles， methods， formulas， and medications. MethodsIn strict accordance with the Systematic Review of Text and Opinion （SrTO） process developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute （JBI）， an Australian evidence-based healthcare center， the databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure （CNKI）， VIP Database， Wanfang Data， and China Biomedical Literature Service System （SinoMed） were searched. Based on predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria， text information extraction， quality evaluation， and text information synthesis were conducted sequentially. The data were analyzed and presented in the form of text and figures. ResultsA total of 215 articles related to 43 contemporary renowned experts in the fields of Chinese medicine nephrology and endocrinology were included. The study found that the academic thoughts of these masters in the treatment of DKD are extensive， involving multiple levels such as disease understanding， therapeutic strategies， formula application， and medication use. In terms of disease understanding， the primary pathogenesis is characterized by deficiency in the root and excess in the manifestation. It is emphasized that internal factors， such as congenital endowment deficiency， interact with external factors such as improper diet， emotional disturbances， invasion of exogenous pathogens， and delayed or inappropriate treatment， to jointly induce the disease. This further gives rise to various pathogenetic theories， including obstruction of renal collaterals by blood stasis， toxin-induced damage to renal collaterals， latent wind disturbing the kidney， and internal heat leading to mass formation. In terms of therapeutic strategies and medication use， the principal treatment method is to replenish Qi and nourish Yin. Stage-based and syndrome-differentiated treatments are advocated. Flexible use of insect-derived drugs and wind-dispelling drugs is emphasized， along with proficiency in applying classical formulas and drug pairs. Integrated internal and external treatments， as well as the combined application of multiple therapeutic approaches， are commonly employed for comprehensive management. Meanwhile， the concept of "preventive treatment of disease" is upheld， and individualized long-term management of patients is advocated. ConclusionThrough the SrTO process， the academic thoughts of contemporary renowned Chinese medicine masters in the treatment of DKD have been systematically and standardly synthesized， providing a scientific and standardized basis for future theoretical exploration.

Objective: To analyze the association between poor sleep characteristics and the coexistence of negative emotions and overweight/obesity among college students, so as to provide a scientific basis for improving their physical and mental health. Methods: From November to December 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to survey 6 600 college students from nine universities in Jiangxi, Hunan, and Hubei provinces. The Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21), Insomnia Severity Index (ISI), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and physical examinations were employed to assess negative emotions, poor sleep characteristics, and overweight/obesity. Chi square test and Logistic regression were used to analyze the impact of poor sleep characteristics on the coexistence of negative emotions and overweight/obesity. Results: The coexistence rates of different categories of negative emotions (depression, anxiety, stress) and overweight/obesity were 6.1% ( n= 405), 8.0% ( n =529), and 3.3% ( n =217), respectively. Gender, grade level, major, maternal education level, annual family income, physical activity level, only child status, and carbonated beverage consumption were statistically associated with the coexistence rates of different categories of negative emotions and overweight/obesity ( χ 2=4.01-35.18, all P <0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for gender, grade level, major, only child status, maternal education level, annual family income, physical activity level, and carbonated beverage consumption, poor sleep characteristics were significantly associated with an increased risk of the coexistence of negative emotions and overweight/obesity ( OR =1.41-6.65); moderate and poor sleep quality levels were significantly associated with an increased risk of the coexistence of different categories of negative emotions and overweight/obesity among female students ( OR =1.99-4.71) (all P <0.05). Conclusions Poor sleep characteristics are associated with the coexistence of negative emotions and overweight/obesity among college students. Greater attention should be paid to sleep issues in this population, and sleep education should be actively promoted to reduce the risk of comorbid negative emotions and overweight/obesity.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of Jiedu Xiaoying Patch in rats with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT).Methods:Totally 32 rats were randomly divided into a blank group of 8 rats and a model group of 24 rats. The HT rat model was prepared by freely drinking 0.064% sodium iodide solution in the modeling module. 24 successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model group, selenium yeast group, and patch group, with 8 rats in each group. Starting from the 9th week, the application group applied Jiedu Xiaoying Patch to the surface projection area of the thyroid gland in the neck of rats for 6 hours, once a day, for a total of 6 weeks; the selenium yeast group was orally administered with 21 μg/ml selenium yeast solution at a dose of 0.5 ml/100 g, while the blank group, model group, and patch group were orally administered with equal volumes of physiological saline solution once a day for a total of 6 weeks. The levels of TGAb,TPOAb, Sema 5A, and IL-17A in rat serum were detected by ELISA. The changes of thyroid tissue was observed with HE staining. The relative expression levels of plexin-A1 and plexin-B3 were determined through RT-PCR.Results:Compared with the model group, the levels of TPOAb, TGAb, Sema 5A, and IL-17A decreased ( P<0.05), and the expressions of plexin-A1 and plexin-B3 decreased in the selenium yeast group and the patch group ( P<0.05). The thyroid follicles in the model group were severely damaged, with a large number of lymphocytes infiltrating the interstices; the thyroid follicular structure of the selenium yeast group was relatively intact, and lymphocyte infiltration was reduced compared to the model group. The thyroid follicular structure of the patch group was basically intact, with a small amount of lymphocyte infiltration observed. Conclusion:Jiedu Xiaoying Patch can significantly reduce the levels of TPOAb and TGAb in HT rats. The mechanism may be related to reducing the content of Sema 5A, inhibiting the expressions of receptors plexin-A1 and plexin-B3, reducing the production of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-17A, and inhibiting immune and inflammatory responses.

Objective To conduct a quantitative risk assessment of Listeria monocytogenes(LM)in prepackaged,non-vacuum sealed,short shelf-life,ready-to-eat meat products in Chengdu using the@Risk software.Methods Based on monitoring data of LM contamination in pre-packaged,non-vacuum sealed,refrigerated ready-to-eat meat products in Chengdu obtained from a previous study,a risk assessment model was established.The risk of LM infection caused by consuming cooked meat products in different groups of people was quantitatively assessed.In addition,the growth of LM in cooked meat products,from retail to consumption,was also taken into consideration in the assessment.Results In Chengdu,the numbers of potential cases of listeriosis caused by consumption of prepackaged,non-vacuum sealed,refrigerated ready-to-eat meat products were 0.01(95％confidence interval[CI]:0-1.71 × 10-2)per year per million in healthy individuals aged 5-＜65 years old,0.22(95％CI:0-2.67 × 10-1)in healthy individuals aged 65 and above,and 2.88(95％CI:3.85 × 10-8-4.35)in pregnant women.According to the results of the sensitivity analysis,the initial pollution level of LM in the retail stage was the most important factor affecting the prevalence(R=0.25),followed by retail temperature(R=0.08),retail time(R=0.07),and amount of consumption per meal(R=0.07).Conclusions For pre-packaged,non-vacuum sealed,cooked meat products,the most important measure to reduce the prevalence of listeriosis is to control the initial contamination level,which requires food processing plants to regularly clean and strictly disinfect the processing environment and equipment to minimize LM contamination at the source.Retail delicatessens should strictly maintain a storage temperature below 5.0℃ and strictly adhere to product shelf-life recommendations.As for consumers,they should consume these meat products as soon as possible after purchase or store them under refrigerated conditions and shorten the storage time.Pregnant women should thoroughly heat the meat products before eating to reduce the risk of listeriosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of intravaginal CO2 fractional laser combined with interferon in treating persistent high-risk HPV infection of the cervix and its impact on vaginal microecology.Methods A total of 211 patients with persistent high-risk HPV infection of the cervix who visited Kunming Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from June 2022 to July 2024 were selected and randomly divided into a follow-up(blank control)group(n=70),an interferon treatment group(n=70),and a combined treatment group(n=71).The follow-up group received regular follow-ups.The interferon treatment group was treated with recombinant human interferon α-2b,and the combined treatment group received a combination of CO2 matrix laser and interferon treatment.The total effective rate,levels of inflammatory factors,and vaginal microecological recovery were compared among the three groups at 3 and 6 months after treatment.Results Overall efficacy:The overall efficacy rates of the combined treatment group at 3 months and 6 months were 73.24%and 81.69%,respectively,significantly higher than those of the interferon group(47.14%and 60.00%)and the blank control group(11.43%and 18.57%)(all P<0.001).Inflammatory factors:Post-treatment levels of IL-1 and TNF-α in the combined treatment group were significantly lower than those in the other two groups(P<0.001).Vaginal microbiota:The combined treatment group had a significantly higher rate of normal PH(84.51%)and normal lactobacillus levels(92.96%)compared to the other two groups(P<0.001).Conclusion CO2 lattice laser combined with interferon can effectively eliminate HPV,improve inflammation and vaginal microenvironment,and demonstrates superior efficacy to monotherapy,with good safety.

To investigate the genomic features and perform cluster analysis of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) to provide an experimental basis for guiding the prevention and treatment of CRKP infections.A retrospective case-cohort study was conducted on 19 non-redundant CRKP strains isolated from the Tenth Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University between January and June 2023. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were performed to compare genomic features and analyze the resistance genes and homology of the strains.The results showed that the 19 CRKP strains were isolated from 8 different clinical departments, mainly from respiratory specimens. The whole genome sequencing revealed that the genomic lengths of CRKP ranged from 4.90 to 5.85 Mbp, with contigs N50 values>20 kb for each genome. The median overall GC content was 57.0% (50.4%-57.1%). Comparative genomic analysis identified three regions with high genomic variability. WGS detected 32 resistance genes across 11 categories. All 19 strains carried carbapenem resistance genes ( blaKPC-2 and blaOXA-48), blaTEM-1B extended-spectrum β-lactamase resistance genes, qnrS1 quinolone resistance gene, and fosA fosfomycin resistance gene, with each strain carrying only one carbapenemase gene. The detection rate of blaKPC-2 was 94.7% (18/19). MLST identified three sequence types: ST11, ST437 and ST147, with ST11 being predominant (89.5%, 17/19). Clustering analysis based on acquired resistance genes revealed three clonal transmission patterns among strains 72 and 90, and strains 88, 84, 66 and 79.In conclusion, CRKP strains carry multiple resistance genes, and clustering analysis indicating that nosocomial clonal transmission is closely related to acquired resistance genes. The ST11- blaKPC-2 type strain is the predominant clone. Strengthened surveillance and effective control strategies are necessary to reduce nosocomial transmission of CRKP.

ObjectiveTo explore the impact of autonomic nerve function on motor function in patients with post-stroke depression (PSD) from the perspective of regional homogeneity (ReHo). MethodsFrom January to December, 2020, a total of 60 inpatients and outpatients with cerebral infarction in the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were divided into control group (n = 30) and PSD group (n = 30). Two groups were assessed using Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), modified Barthel Index (MBI) and Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD). Heart rate variability (HRV) was measured. Ten patients in each group were selected randomly to undergo resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) to calculate ReHo. ResultsAll HRV indices were lower in PSD group than in the control group (|t| > 2.092, P < 0.05). In PSD group, FMA and MBI scores showed positive correlations with 24-hour standard deviation of normal-to-normal R-R intervals (SDNN), the root mean square of successive differences between normal heartbeats over 24 hours (RMSSD), the percentage of differences between adjacent normal R-R intervals over 24 hours that were greater than 50 ms (PNN50), total power (TP), very low frequency power (VLF) and low frequency power (LF) (r > 0.394, P < 0.05), and showed negative correlations with HAMD scores (|r| > 0.919, P < 0.001). HAMD scores in PSD group were negatively correlated with SDNN, RMSSD, PNN50, TP and VLF (|r| > 0.769, P < 0.001). Compared with the control group, the ReHo increased in PSD group in the right rectus gyrus (142 voxels, t = 6.575), the left medial and paracingulate gyri (204 voxels, t = 4.925) (GRF correction, P_-Voxel < 0.005，P_-Cluster < 0.05); and reduced in the right cerebellum (191 voxels, t = -6.487), the left middle temporal gyrus (140 voxels, t = -5.516), and the left precentral gyrus (119 voxels, t = -4.764) (GRF correction, P_-Voxel < 0.005，P_-Cluster < 0.05) in PSD group. ConclusionAutonomic nerve function is related to motor dysfunction in patients with PSD. The modulation of emotional, cognitive and motor brain regions by the autonomic nervous system may play a role in influencing the motor function in patients with PSD.

Pyroptosis,an inflammatory caspase-dependent programmed cell death,plays a vital role in maintaining tissue homeostasis and activating inflammatory responses.Orthodontic tooth movement(OTM)is an aseptic force-induced inflammatory bone remodeling process mediated by the activation of periodontal ligament(PDL)progenitor cells.However,whether and how force induces PDL progenitor cell pyroptosis,thereby influencing OTM and alveolar bone remodeling remains unknown.In this study,we found that mechanical force induced the expression of pyroptosis-related markers in rat OTM and alveolar bone remodeling process.Blocking or enhancing pyroptosis level could suppress or promote OTM and alveolar bone remodeling respectively.Using Caspase-1-/-mice,we further demonstrated that the functional role of the force-induced pyroptosis in PDL progenitor cells depended on Caspase-1.Moreover,mechanical force could also induce pyroptosis in human ex-vivo force-treated PDL progenitor cells and in compressive force-loaded PDL progenitor cells in vitro,which influenced osteoclastogenesis.Mechanistically,transient receptor potential subfamily V member 4 signaling was involved in force-induced Caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in PDL progenitor cells.Overall,this study suggested a novel mechanism contributing to the modulation of osteoclastogenesis and alveolar bone remodeling under mechanical stimuli,indicating a promising approach to accelerate OTM by targeting Caspase-1.
