ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of action of Jiedu Huayu granules in improving liver injury in mice with acute liver failure （ALF） by observing its effect on a mouse model of ALF after prophylactic administration， and to provide a basis for clinical medication. MethodsA total of 60 specific pathogen-free male C57BL/6J mice were divided into normal group， model group， Jiedu Huayu granules group （JDHY group）， and farnesoid X receptor （FXR） agonist （GW4064） group using a random number table， with 15 mice in each group. The model of ALF was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of D-galactosamine combined with lipopolysaccharide. The mice in the JDHY group were given prophylactic administration of 0.3 g/mL drug solution of Jiedu Huayu granules by gavage for 3 days before modeling， those in the normal group and the model group were given 0.9% NaCl solution by gavage， and those in the GW4064 group were given intraperitoneal injection of GW4064 for 3 consecutive days before modeling. The mice were sacrificed after modeling， and serum and liver tissue samples were collected. A veterinary automatic biochemical analyzer was used to measure the serum levels of total bilirubin （TBil）， total bile acids （TBA）， gamma-glutamyl transferase （GGT）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） in mice from each group； HE staining was used to observe liver pathological changes； RT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of FXR， fibroblast growth factor 15 （FGF15）， fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 （FGFR4）， small heterodimer partner （SHP）， and bile salt export pump （BSEP） in mice， and Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of FXR， FGF15， FGFR4， SHP， and BSEP. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups， and the Dunett method was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group had significant increases in the serum levels of TBil， ALT， AST， TBA， and GGT （all P<0.01）， and compared with the model group， the JDHY group and the GW4064 group had significant reductions in the serum levels of TBil， ALT， AST， TBA， and GGT （all P <0.01）. HE staining showed that compared with the model group， the JDHY group and the GW4064 group had milder pathological injury， a reduction in the area of hepatocyte necrosis， and alleviation of cellular swelling and edema. Compared with the normal group， the model group had significant reductions in the mRNA and protein expression levels of FXR， FGF15， FGFR4， SHP， and BSEP in liver tissue （all P <0.01）， and compared with the model group， the JDHY group and the GW4064 group had significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression levels of FXR， FGF15， FGFR4， SHP， and BSEP in liver tissue （all P <0.05）. ConclusionJiedu Huayu granules may alleviate liver injury in mice with ALF through the FXR/SHP axis.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl- diethy-lenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA) enhanced MRI features in the preoperative prediction of tertiary lymphoid structures (TLS) within hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) lesions.Methods:This retrospective cross-sectional study included clinical and pathological data from 297 HCC patients treated at the Southwest Hospital, Army Medical University between June 2021 and November 2022. Based on postoperative pathology, patients were categorized into TLS-negative ( n=93) and TLS-positive ( n=204) groups. MRI features of HCC lesions using Gd-EOB-DTPA enhancement and relevant clinical data were analyzed. Intergroup comparisons of imaging features and laboratory findings were performed using independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, or Fisher exact test, as appropriate. The logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify independent predictors of TLS positivity. A predictive model was constructed and visualized using a nomogram. The model′s predictive performance and clinical utility were assessed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was compared using the DeLong test. Results:Significant differences were observed between the TLS-negative and TLS-positive groups in alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels, intratumoral hemorrhage, and peritumoral satellite nodules in the hepatobiliary phase ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression identified intratumoral hemorrhage ( OR=0.123, 95% CI 0.070-0.216, P<0.001) and peritumoral satellite nodules in the hepatobiliary phase ( OR=0.236, 95% CI 0.093-0.596, P=0.002) as independent predictive factors for TLS-positivity. The imaging model based on these two features yielded an AUC of 0.764 (95% CI 0.709-0.809) for predicting TLS-positivity. When combined with AFP levels, the resulting clinical-imaging model achieved a superior AUC of 0.784 (95% CI 0.732-0.829), which was significantly higher than that of the imaging model alone ( Z=2.20, P=0.028). A nomogram was constructed based on the clinical-imaging model. The calibration curve demonstrated good predictive performance of the nomogram, and the DCA showed that the curve remained above the default line across a range of reasonable threshold probabilities, indicating that patients could derive clinical benefit. Conclusion:A nomogram model based on Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI features combined with AFP levels can effectively predict the presence of TLS in HCC.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of action and potential biomarkers of Jiangzhi Qingshen capsules in the treatment of dyslipidaemia based on clinical lipid metabolomics.Methods 30 patients with dyslipidaemia from Zhengzhou Hospital of Chinese Medicine were collected as the test group,and their lipid levels before and after taking Jiang Zhi Qing Shen capsule for 12 weeks were compared.Another 30 healthy patients were enrolled in the physical examination department of Zhengzhou Hospital of Chinese Medicine,and metabolomics investigation was carried out on plasma samples of the test group before and after the treatment as well as those of the healthy patients by LC-MS/MS technology.The differences between the groups were compared by multivariate statistical analysis,and the potential biomarkers were identified by HMDB and lipidblast databases,so as to clarify the possible pathways and targets for the treatment of mild dyslipidaemia by Jiangzhi Qingshen capsules.Results Jiangzhi Qingshen capsules could improve patients' blood lipid level,BMI and abdominal circumference significantly(P<0.05).And metabolomics results showed that 29 lipid metabolites in the plasma of the treated patients were dialled back,which involved cholesterol metabolism,fat digestion and absorption,glycerol-phospholipid metabolism and other biological processes.Conclusion The efficacy of Jiangzhi Qingshen capsules in treating dyslipidaemia was confirmed,and its mechanism of action might be related to the regulation of lipid metabolism.Metabolites such as acylcarnitine(Acar),phosphatidylethanolamine(PE)and phosphatidylcholine(PC)were expected to be used as the biomarkers of dyslipidaemia,so as to provide objective scientific basis for the lipid-lowering capsule,and to facilitate the promotion of its application.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of mood state of common rheumatic (rheumatoid arthritis; systemic lupus erythematosus; ankylosing spondylitis) patients and find out the common characteristics of patients with negative emotions, so as to identify and treat rheumatic patients with anxiety and depression in clinical practice.Methods:A total of 205 patients with rheumatism (83 with rheumatoid arthritis, 74 with systemic lupus erythematosus, 48 with ankylosing spondylitis) admitted to the Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University from April to May 2023 were included. The general condition and POMS of patients were collected. All patients were divided into 3 groups of low-TMD/ middle-TMD/ high-TMD(TMD≤90 scores; 90 scores105 scores). The χ2 test was used for categorical variables, and the continuous variables were tested for normal distribution. If they followed a normal distribution, the independent sample t test (for homogeneous variance) or the Welch′s t test (for unequal variance) was used for comparison between the two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups; if they did not follow a normal distribution, the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison between groups. Patients with TMD>90 scores were defined as the negative emotion group. Gender, age, education level, economic income status, and TMD were included in the two-step cluster analysis (TCA) to obtain three cluster groups and analyze the differences between the groups. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors. Results:The study found that patients with rheumatic diseases with low serum albumin levels ( F=6.26, P=0.003), low education level ( χ2=8.36, P=0.015), low economic level ( χ2=15.59, P<0.001), short disease course ( H=28.01, P<0.001), and high disease activity ( χ2=56.93, P<0.001) had higher TMD scores, which was not related to the type of disease ( χ2=4.81, P=0.090). The negative mood group had a higher proportion of females (57.6% vs. 73.4%, χ2=5.16, P=0.023), a shorter course of disease [24(12, 48) months vs. 48(24, 93) months, Z=13.58, P<0.001], and a lower serum albumin [(42.2±4.0) g/L vs. (44.0±3.4)g/L, t=-14.09, P=0.002], low level of education ( χ2=9.04, P=0.029), low level of income ( χ2=10.29, P=0.036), high disease activity ( χ2=61.91, P<0.001). The results of cluster analysis indicated that the above factors were significantly different among the three cluster groups except the course of disease. It is noteworthy that age ( F=19.25, P<0.001) and serum albumin ( F=5.64, P=0.004) had the lowest value and the highest TMD score ( F=5.64, P<0.001). Regression analysis showed that gender, disease course and disease activity were related factors to the occurrence of negative emotions, and high disease activity was a risk factor [ OR(95% CI) =26.58(4.53, 156.09), P<0.001]. Men [ OR(95% CI)=0.20 (0.08, 0.50), P=0.001) and the course of [ OR(95% CI)=0.99 (0.98, 1.00), P=0.007) as the protective factors. Conclusion:Male, serum albumin level, education level, income level, disease course and disease activity were the main factors affecting the mood state of patients with rheumatism, in which high disease activity was the risk factor, male and long disease course were the protective factors.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of preoperative gadolinium ethoxy-benzyldiethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in predicting microvascular invasion (MVI) and intratumoral tertiary lymphoid structures (TLSs) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 304 HCC patients who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University and 10 HCC patients who were admitted to The Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from June 2021 to June 2023 were collected. There were 272 males and 42 females, aged (56±11)years. Using a random number table method, patients were divided into a training set including 220 cases and a validation set including 94 cases in a 7:3 ratio. Among the 314 patients, 106 cases had MVI and TLSs-positive HCC (MT-HCC), and 208 cases had non-MT-HCC. All patients underwent preoperative Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI and radical resection. Observation indicators: (1) clinicopathological characteristics of MT-HCC and non-MT-HCC patients; (2) imaging characteristics of MT-HCC and non-MT-HCC patients; (3) imaging features associated with MT-HCC diagnosis; (4) nomogram predictive model construction and evaluation for MT-HCC. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was analyzed using the t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was analyzed using the nonpara-meter rank sum test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the logistic regression model. A nomo-gram predictive model was constructed based on results of multivariate analysis, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were plotted to evaluate the model's performance with the area under curve (AUC). Calibration curve and decision curve analyses were used to assess the calibration and clinical validity of nomogram predictive model. Results:(1) Clinicopathological characteristics of MT-HCC and non-MT-HCC patients. In the training set, there were significant differences between MT-HCC and non-MT-HCC patients in terms of age, white blood cell count, and alpha fetoprotein level ( t=2.488, Z=-2.515, χ2=4.014, P<0.05). (2) Imaging characteristics of MT-HCC and non-MT-HCC patients. In the training set, there were significant differences in tumor morphology, intratumoral hemorrhage, peritumoral abnormal enhancement in arterial phase, capsule presence, intratumoral necrosis or ischemia >20%, intratumoral necrosis or ischemia >50%, peritumoral hypointensity in the hepatobiliary phase, intravascular tumor thrombus, arterial phase rim-like hyperenhancement, and mosaic architecture between MT-HCC and non-MT-HCC patients ( χ2=8.811, 5.586, 13.962, 31.616, 10.154, 4.835, 5.111, 14.425, 7.112, 5.526, P<0.05). (3) Imaging features associated with MT-HCC diagnosis. Results of multivariate analysis identified the absence of intratumoral hemorrhage, incom-plete capsule, and mosaic architecture as independent risk factors for diagnosing MT-HCC ( hazard ratio=3.846, 7.827, 2.345, P<0.05). (4) Nomogram predictive model construction and evaluation for MT-HCC. A nomogram predictive model for MT-HCC was constructed based on the independent risk factors (absence of intratumoral hemorrhage, incomplete capsule, and mosaic architecture) iden-tified in the multivariate analysis. The ROC curve analysis showed that AUC of nomogram predictive model was 0.778 (95% confidence interval as 0.714-0.843), with sensitivity and specificity of 0.857 and 0.573 in the training set. In the validation set, the area under the curve, sensitivity, and specifi-city were 0.825 (95% confidence interval as 0.745-0.926), 0.655, and 0.877, respectively. The calibra-tion curves for both the training set and the validation set closely aligned with the standard curve, indicating high calibration accuracy. The decision curve analysis demonstrated net clinical benefits at thresholds of 0.130-0.690 in the training set and 0.060-0.750 in the validation set. Conclusions:The absence of intratumoral hemorrhage, incomplete capsule, and mosaic architecture are independent risk factors for diagnosing MT-HCC. A nomogram model based on imaging features can predict MT-HCC in HCC patients.
