BACKGROUND:Macrophages play a key role in the occurrence and progression of lung diseases,and autophagy plays an important role in maintaining environmental homeostasis and functional stability in macrophages.It has been suggested that macrophage autophagic activity has two sides in lung inflammatory diseases.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the relationship between macrophage autophagy and lung diseases,thereby providing reference for exploring the prevention and treatment strategies of lung inflammatory diseases by targeting macrophage autophagy.METHODS:Literature retrieval was performed in CNKI and PubMed for relevant literature published from database inception to September 2024.The search terms were"macrophage autophagy,efferocytosis,macrophage polarization,acute lung injury,pneumonia,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,pulmonary fibrosis,asthma"in Chinese and English,respectively.The search results were included or excluded based on the selection criteria,and 100 papers that met the criteria were finally included in the review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The obstruction of autophagy flow will induce the polarization imbalance of macrophages and impair their efferocytosis,resulting in the increase of M1 macrophages and aggravating inflammation.(2)The judgment of autophagic activity should be based on whether the autophagy flow is smooth or not,and it is essential to evaluate the degradation ability of autophagy.Some studies failed to comprehensively detect the degradation ability of autophagy lysosomes to assess whether the autophagy flow is unobtrusive.As a result,the so-called two-sided view of pulmonary macrophage autophagy in pulmonary inflammatory diseases in such studies is actually related to the one-sided judgment of autophagy activity.(3)The pathological manifestations vary across different pulmonary diseases and even at different stages of the same disease.Activation of macrophage autophagy plays a positive role in regulating pulmonary inflammatory homeostasis in conditions such as acute lung injury,infectious pneumonia,mild chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,early-stage pulmonary fibrosis,and secondary asthma.However,in the severe fibrotic stage of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and the progressive stage of pulmonary fibrosis,the activation of pulmonary macrophage autophagy aggravates pulmonary fibrosis,reflecting the dual nature of macrophage autophagy.In allergic asthma,autophagy is activated in lung-resident macrophages but suppressed in infiltrating monocyte-derived macrophages from circulation.The former is closely related to airway stenosis,and the latter aggravates pneumonia disorders.Therefore,identifying the types and progression stages of lung diseases,along with accurately assessing autophagic activity,is crucial for future investigations into the relationship between macrophage autophagy and disease pathogenesis,thereby facilitating the development of therapeutic strategies in the future.

Endothelial dysfunction induced by inflammation and oxidative stress represents a critical pathological mechanism in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including sepsis and atherosclerosis. Although crebanine has been reported to possess antiinflammatory and analgesic properties, its effects on inflammation and oxidative stress in endothelial cells remain unknown. In this study, we assessed cell viability, apoptosis, and migration using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), flow cytometry, and a wound healing assay, respectively. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the expression of inflammatory and oxidative stress markers were determined by qRT-PCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Western blotting analysis. Our results demonstrated that crebanine alleviated lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced apoptosis and dysfunction in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Crebanine treatment inhibited the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β), ROS, and malondialdehyde (MDA), while it enhanced the activity of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD). Mechanistically, crebanine suppressed LPS-induced activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway in HUVECs. Furthermore, the improvement effect of crebanine on the inflammation and dysfunction in LPS-treated HUVECs was reversed by diprovocim, an NF-κB activator.These findings suggest that crebanine ameliorates LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative stress in HUVECs by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway, indicating its potential therapeutic value for treating vascular endothelial dysfunction-related diseases.

OBJECTIVE To study the quality standard of the ethnic medicine Diplazium lanceum， and to provide reference for its quality control.METHODS The medicinal material of D. lanceum was identified by properties， microscopy， and thin-layer chromatography（TLC）， and its moisture， ash， and extract contents were determined. The contents of chlorogenic acid and rutin in 10 batches of D. lanceum were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography . RESULTS The rhizome of D. lanceum is slender and creeping， the leaf is leathery and shriveled， and yellow sporangia are borne on the abaxial surface of the leaf. The transverse section of the leaf shows inclusions， sclerenchyma， phloem cells， etc.； the transverse section of the petiole shows ground tissue， sclerenchyma， endodermis， etc.； the transverse section of the rhizome shows ground tissue， tracheids， vascular bundles， etc.； and the powder shows spiral vessels and brown inclusions. The TLC identification results showed that the chromatogram of the test sample exhibited spots of the same color at the corresponding positions as the chromatogram of the chlorogenic acid reference substance. The content ranges of moisture， total ash， acid-insoluble ash， extract， chlorogenic acid， and rutin in the 10 batches of samples were 10.18%-12.43%， 7.08%-19.12%， 0.95%-10.62%， 14.13%-26.05%， 0.113 1-1.015 9 mg/g， and 0.009 9-0.208 9 mg/g， respectively. CONCLUSIONS In the quality standard of D. lanceum， the moisture content should be ≤12.5%， total ash content should be ≤20.0%， acid-insoluble ash content should be ≤11.0%， extract content should be ≥14.0%， and chlorogenic acid content should be ≥0.11 mg/g. The established method is simple， specific， and reproducible， and can provide a scientific basis for the quality control of D. lanceum.

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the measurement content, psychometric properties and quality of evidence of patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) for adolescents with spinal dysfunction based on International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health-Children and Youth (ICF-CY) framework, Consensus-based Standards for the Selection of Health Measurement Instruments (COSMIN) and modified GRADE approach. MethodsDatabases including CNKI, Wanfang Data, PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were systematically searched for studies assessing psychometric properties of PROMs targeting adolescents with spinal dysfunction. The methodological quality of included studies was evaluated using COSMIN Risk of Bias checklist, the psychometric properties were rated according to COSMIN criteria, and evidence quality was graded using modified GRADE approach. Item content of each PROM was coded following the ICF-CY linking rules. ResultsA total of 23 studies involving eight PROMs were included. Brace Questionnaire (BrQ), Italian Spine Youth Quality of Life Questionnaire (ISYQOL), Quality of Life Profile for Spinal Deformities (QLPSD), Spinal Appearance Questionnaire (SAQ), Scoliosis Japanese Questionnaire-27 (SJ-27) and Scoliosis Research Society-22 Revised Questionnaire (SRS-22r) were rated as grade B, while EuroQol Five-Dimension Youth Five-Level Questionnaire (EQ-5D-Y-5L) and Young Spine Questionnaire (YSQ) were rated as grade C. The eight PROMs were linked to six to 24 ICF-CY categories. BrQ covered the largest number of categories (n = 24), followed by SJ-27 (n = 19) and SRS-22r (n = 16). Except for SAQ which mainly focused on dimension of body functions and structures, all other PROMs covered both dimension of body functions and structures, and activities and participation, while BrQ, ISYQOL, SRS-22r and YSQ also covered dimension of environmental factors. Major methodological limitations included insufficient evidence for content validity, inappropriate factor-analysis approaches, incomplete reporting for test-retest reliability, and overall scarcity of evidence concerning measurement error, minimal important change (MIC) and responsiveness. ConclusionThe quality of PROMs in adolescents with spinal dysfunction varies. BrQ, ISYQOL, QLPSD, SAQ, SJ-27 and SRS-22r show application potential, yet further high-quality studies are required to supplement their psychometric evidence. EQ-5D-Y-5L and YSQ exist high-quality insufficient evidence. Selection of PROMs should comprehensively consider target population, measurement purpose, content coverage and quality of evidence. Further researches are needed to improve reporting quality.

Objective To explore the sex differences in drug metabolism of sufentanil in Chinese patients based on the mutation classification of cytochrome P450 3A(CYP3A)enzymes.Methods According to the possible effects of combined cytochrome P450 3A4 gene*1G locus(CYP3A4*1G)and cytochrome P450 3A5 gene*3 locus(CYP3A5*3)mutation groups on Chinese population,we added different weights to CYP3A4*1G and CYP3A5*3 polymorphisms and classified patients into 3 groups:GroupⅠ,patients carried either the CYP3A4*1G/*1G allele or both CYP3A4*1/*1G allele and CYP3A5*3/*3 allele;Group Ⅱ,patients with both CYP3A4*1/*1G allele and CYP3A5*1/*3 allele;Group Ⅲ,patients with either the CYP3A4*1/*1 allele or both CYP3A4*1/*1G allele and CYP3A5*1/*1 allele.A single-dose,double-blind,stratified random sampling was performed,and 255 patients undergoing endoscopic surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University were finally subjected.According to the results of genetic testing,an independent statistician,before operation,randomly selected 30 patients from each stratified group to form a study cohort(male-female ratio of 1∶1)and named each group A,B or C.Clinical investigators and subjects kept double-blind to the results of grouping and genetic testing.After entering the operating room,the subjected 90 patients received a single dose of sufentanil followed by collection of blood samples at 10 time points including 2 min before and from 2 to 120 min after administration.After the surgery,we determined the plasma drug concentration,calculated the pharmacokinetic parameters,and compared the metabolic differences between different genders in each group and unblinded the study.Results The cohort best fitted the two-compartment pharmacokinetic model,and groups A,B and C corresponded to group Ⅰ,Ⅱand Ⅲ,respectively.In different patient groups based on mutatron types of CYP3A enzymes the females had lower plasma drug concentration-time curves at each time point,higher systemic clearance(P≤0.01)and smaller area under the plasma concentration-time curve from zero to infinity(P＜0.05)when compared with the males.In addition,in group Ⅰ,the elimination rate of central compartment and movement rate of drug from central compartment to peripheral compartment were obviously greater in the females than the males(P＜0.05),while the distribution half-life(P＜0.05)and elimination half-life(P＜0.01)were notably longer in the males than the females.In both group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ,the males obtained larger total area under the plasma concentration-time curve than the females(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are sex differences in the drug metabolism of sufentanil in Chinese patients.Women show faster distribution and higher clearance of sufentanil while men present greater drug exposure.Preoperative CYP3A genotyping and intraoperative personalized medication are of great significance to ensure the safety in clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the resuscitation efficacy of novel lyophilized platelets(LP,thrombin-stimulated platelets)combined with lactated Ringer's(LR)solution in rabbits with hemorrhagic shock and seawater immersion.Methods Fifty rabbits were randomly assigned to 5 groups(Groups A,B,C,D and E,n=10).After all rabbits were anesthetized with 3%pentobarbital sodium at a dose of 1 mL/kg,soft tissue injury was inflicted in the left lower limb.The blood loss from the soft tissue injury was quantified after gauze hemostasis.The right lower limb was subjected to femoral artery catheterization,followed by blood withdrawal equivalent to 26%of the total blood volume of the rabbit.The rabbits were then vertically immersed in 3%artificial seawater,with the water level reaching above the xiphoid process,and were retrieved in 15 min later.Resuscitation strategies were applied to the rabbits from different group:Group A(no resuscitation),Group B(resuscitation with LR solution),Group C(resuscitation with LR solution and fresh platelets),Group D(resuscitation with LR solution and LP),and Group E(resuscitation with LR solution and novel LP).Coagulation function test,routine blood test,blood gas analysis,and thromboelastography were conducted at baseline and at 1,2 and 4 h after injury.Results The LP and rabbit model of hemorrhagic shock and seawater immersion were successfully prepared.At 1 h after injury,the mean arterial pressure(MAP)of Groups C,D and E(infused with platelet preparations)was significantly higher than that of Group A(without resuscitation,P<0.05);the lactate(Lac)content of Group C was obviously lower than that of Groups A and B(P<0.05);the base excess(BE)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)levels of Groups C,D and E were notably lower than those of Groups A and B(P<0.05);and the prothrombin time(PT)of Group A was significantly longer than that of before injury(P<0.05).At 2 h after injury,the MAP of Groups C and D was significantly higher than that of Groups A and B,and that of Group E was notably higher than that of Group A(P<0.05);the Lac content of Groups C and E was obviously lower than that of Groups A and B,while that of Group D was also lower than that of Group A(P<0.05);the BE and BUN levels of Groups C,D and E were remarkably lower than those of Groups A and B(P<0.05);the maximum amplitude(MA)value of Group C was higher than that of Group A,while the value of Groups A and D at this time was significantly lower than the corresponding value before injury(P<0.05);and the activated partial clotting time(APTT)of Groups A and D was statistically longer than the corresponding baseline time(P<0.05).At 4 h after injury,the MAP of Groups C,D,and E was higher than that of Groups A and B,and that of Group B was higher than that of Group A(P<0.05);the Lac and BUN levels of Groups C,D,and E were lower than those of Groups A and B(P<0.05);the BE level of Groups C and D were lower than those of Groups A and B(P<0.05);the MA value of Groups B,C,and E were higher than those of Group A(P<0.05),while the MA value and APTT value of Groups A and D were significantly lower than their corresponding baseline values(P<0.05).Conclusion For rabbits with hemorrhagic shock and seawater immersion,the novel LP combined with LR solution can significantly increase the MAP level,reduce Lac content,and sustainably maintain blood clot firmness and coagulation function.

Objective To explore the pharmacokinetic characteristics of sufentanil in individuals with normal body mass index(BMI),overweight BMI,and different CYP3A4/5 enzyme genotypes.Methods The patients receiving laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia in the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from November 2020 to September 2021 were prospectively recruited in this study.Before the operation,the oral swabs were collected from all the patients for genotyping using the human CYP3A4/5 gene kit.Based on the potential impact of combination of their polymorphisms on sufentanil metabolism and the proportion of different genotype combinations of CYP3A4/5 enzymes,the patients were divided into groups I(3A4 homozygous mutation or 3A4 heterozygous mutation+3A5 homozygous mutation),II(3A4 heterozygous mutation+3A5 heterozygous mutation),and III(3A4 wild type or 3A4 heterozygous mutation+3A5 wild type).According to their BMI,they were also assigned into a normal body weight group(18.5～24.0 kg/m2)and an overweight group(24～<28 kg/m2),and the differences in drug metabolism parameters were statistically analyze between the 2 groups.After routine general anesthesia induction(sufentanil 0.5 μg/kg),venous blood samples were collected to detect the changes in its concentration using high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS).The pharmacokinetic data of sufentanil were calculated between the normal BMI group and overweight group in all participants and between the 2 body weight groups among those with different genotype combinations.Results Among the 90 participants completing the blood drug concentration test,8 patients had their blood samples contaminated(including 1 case with an anesthesia duration of<2 h),and 3 were excluded due to low weight or overweight.Eventually,79 participants were included in the pharmacokinetic analysis on the normal body weight group and the overweight group.Compared with the normal body weight group,the central compartment volume of distribution in the overweight group was significantly reduced(P<0.05),while no obvious differences were observed between the 2 groups in terms of peripheral compartment volume of distribution,total clearance rate,peripheral compartment clearance rate,distribution half-life,clearance half-life,and area under the blood concentration-time curve.In group Ⅰ(n=26),the overweight patients(n=13)had significantly reduced central compartment volume of distribution,peripheral compartment volume of distribution,and peripheral compartment clearance rate when compared with the normal body weight patients(n=13)(P<0.05),while no differences were observed in other pharmacokinetic parameters.In groups Ⅱ(n=25)and Ⅲ(n=28),the overweight patients and normal body weight patients had no statistical differences in all pharmacokinetic parameters.Conclusion Among the patients with the same genotype combination of CYP3A4/5 mutations,there was no difference in the metabolism of sufentanil between the overweight and normal weight patients.Additionally,in the population of 3A4 homozygous mutation or 3A4 heterozygous mutation+3A5 homozygous mutation,the overweight patients have smaller peripheral distribution range of sufentanil,and weakened metabolic process.

To meet the demand of national governance modernization and high-quality development of public hospitals,it constructed a three-dimensional analysis framework of"synergy,technology empowerment and proactive governance"in response to the outstanding problems of insufficient synergy in the supervision network,weak monitoring and early warning capability,and passive response to supervision.The purpose is to:at the level of synergy and linkage,from the definition of the subject's function,the sharing of supervisory information,and the linkage of rectification and improvement to jointly build a multi-subject co-governance supervisory network,form a common supervisory pattern,break down the barriers to synergy,and make a closed-loop governance;at the level of technological empowerment,through the use of tools such as blockchain technology,AI auditing models,and data decision support platforms,to realize a full chain traceability,intelligent risk early warning,and intelligent driven penetrating supervision with data decision support.At the level of active governance,the aim is to expand the key indicators in auditing and assessment,and give play to the guiding role of economic responsibility auditing and the driving effect of national-level comprehensive assessment,so as to promote the behavioral mode of the supervisory body from"passive compliance"to"active governance".It provides a systematic solution with both theoretical innovation and practical applicability for the modernization of the financial and accounting supervision system of public hospitals.

Objective To analyze the research hotspots and trends of invasive fungal infections(IFIs)in China over the past 24 years,and provide references and suggestions for future research.Methods Literatures on IFIs re-search in China from 2000 to 2024 were retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI)and Web of Science(WOS).CiteSpace software was employed to conduct collaboration network analysis on authors' institu-tions,and co-occurrence,clustering,and burst analyses were conducted on key words.Results A total of 2 479 li-teratures retrieved from CNKI and 1 149 from WOS were included in the analysis,involving 295 research institu-tions,with no core research team identified having a intermediary centrality＞0.1.Institutions with intermediary centrality＞0.1 included Chinese Academy of Sciences,Peking University,Fudan University,Sun Yat-sen Univer-sity and Zhejiang University.Key words with high centrality included"diagnosis""risk factor""voriconazole"and"Candida albicans".Clustering analysis grouped the co-occurrence network of key words into 6 clusters,mainly covering fungal diagnosis,treatment,and susceptible factors.Since 2020,focuses on the safety of antifungal treat-ment agents and primary prevention have emerged,with hot topics including pharmacokinetics,children,clinical features,and risk factors.Conclusion Currently,research teams are dispersed with insufficient interdisciplinary collaboration.Research topics are relatively simple.It is necessary to strengthen research on fungal resistance and healthcare-associated infection prevention and control.Risk factors and prevention measures for IFIs may be the fo-cus of future research.
