OBJECTIVE: Left ventricular remodeling induced by myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI) is a common cardiac dysfunction. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that autophagy plays a vital role in protecting against ventricular remodeling. This study aims to investigate the performance of Compound Danshen Tablets (CDT) in rescuing ventricular remodeling and whether autophagy as the potential mechanism. METHODS: The left anterior descending arteries of rats were temporarily ligated for 30 min to construct the MI/RI model. Ventricular remodeling was induced by reperfusion for 28 d, during which the MI/RI rats were administered CDT (300 mg/kg and 600 mg/kg), atorvastatin (2 mg/kg), and diltiazem (16 mg/kg). Cardiac function and structure were examined by echocardiography. Immunohistochemistry, Masson's trichrome staining, and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining were utilized to assess the fibrosis and histological alterations in the heart tissue. The expression of autophagy-related proteins was detected using Western blotting. RESULTS: CDT attenuated the cardiac dysfunction, structural changes, histopathological changes and fibrosis induced by MI/RI. CDT significantly enhanced the level of Beclin1 and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta (LC3β), and reduced p62 levels in MI/RI rats. Moreover, CDT significantly increased the phosphorylation of adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and inhibited mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) phosphorylation. CONCLUSION CDT ameliorated MI/RI-induced ventricular remodeling by activating autophagy and improving autophagic flux via the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of tissue-resident memory T cells(TRM)on imiquimod-induced psoriatic-like skin lesions in mice,and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of TRM involvement in this process.Methods Forty female BALB/c mice were procured and randomly allocated into four groups:ten in the blank control group,and thirty for the establishment of a psoriasis mouse model.Following successful modeling,the thirty mice were further randomized into three groups:the model control group,the methotrexate-treated group,and the imiquimod-treated group,with ten mice in each group.Mice in the blank control group and model control group were uniformly treated with Vaseline for intervention.The methotrexate group and the imiquimod group were treated with 62.5mg of 5％imiquimod cream.The methotrexate group was administered by gavage at a dose of 1 mg/kg,and the gavage volume of each group was 10 mL/kg.The model control group,blank group and imiquimod group were gavaged with the same volume of normal saline.Treatment was conducted over six consecutive days.Subsequently,comparisons were made across groups regarding the psoriasis area and severity index(PASI),histopathological findings,inflammatory cytokine levels,and TRM cell levels.Results(1)The imiquimod group exhibited signifi-cantly lower scores for erythema(2.54±0.32),skin thickening(2.59±0.25),and scaling(2.52±0.29)compared to the methotrexate group,model control group,and blank control group(P<0.05).Additionally,the methotrexate group demonstrated reduced scores for erythema,skin thickening,and scaling compared to the model control group(P<0.05).(2)Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining revealed that the epidermis in the methotrexate group became thin-ner,with fewer parakeratotic cells and increased hair follicles.Conversely,the imiquimod group displayed abnor-mal cell morphology and relatively thicker white skin after modeling.(3)The imiquimod group showed significantly lower levels of TNF-α(51.63±4.39 pg/mL),IL-1β(35.53±4.15 pg/mL),IFN-γ(23.43±3.41 pg/mL),and IL-23(15.24±2.95 pg/mL)compared to the methotrexate and model control groups(P<0.05).Similarly,the methotrexate group exhibited reduced levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IFN-γ,and IL-23 compared to the model control group(P<0.05).(4)The imiquimod group had significantly lower levels of CD8+CD103+cells(15.39±2.31)than the methotrexate and model control groups(P<0.05).Furthermore,the methotrexate group demonstrated lower levels of CD8+CD103+cells compared to the model control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Miquimod induces heavier skin lesions,faster response,and more epidermal thickening in psoriasis like mice.CD8+CD103+TRM cells and inflammatory factors may be involved in the recurrence of psoriasis.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)on the spinal cord in patients with scoliosis and evaluate its buffering effect during gravitational traction surgery and in daily life,so as to provide a theoretical guidance for surgical planning and postoperative rehabilitation of scoliosis.Methods A three-dimensional coupled spinal cord-CSF finite element model was established to simulate the biomechanical responses of the spine under two scenarios:gravitational traction surgery and daily life.Comparative analyses were conducted for conditions with and without CSF,and the buffering effect of CSF was quantitatively assessed.Results During simulated gravitational traction surgery,CSF significantly reduced the stress and deformation of the spinal cord,with the stress in spinal cord white and gray matter decreasing by 65％-90％and deformation decreasing by 70％-95％.In the daily life scenario,CSF provided greater protective effects in lateral flexion and anterior-posterior flexion directions,with stress reductions of 60％-85％.However,in torsion,the buffering effect of CSF was relatively weaker,with stress reductions of only 10％-25％.Conclusions CSF significantly reduces spinal cord stress and deformation during gravitational traction surgery and in daily life,reducing the risk of injury.

With the rising prevalence of chronic diseases and an aging population,China's traditional segmented health-care delivery model is increasingly inadequate for meeting the growing demand for long-term,systematic health management.In response,the"Physician-Pharmacist Co-management"model has emerged,aiming to enhance the quality and continuity of care through close collaboration between physicians and pharmacists.This paper starts from the concept and origin of"Physician-Phar-macist Co-management"model,focusing on its China-specific advantages shaped by national healthcare policies and clinical real-ities.Unlike the internationally recognized Collaborative Drug Therapy Management(CDTM)model,the Chinese approach re-flects local healthcare structures and needs.Using obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)as a case study,we examine the mod-el's application and value in managing chronic respiratory diseases.Data indicate that,after the implementation of"physician-pharmacist co-management"model in COPD patients,the CAT score decreased by approximately 24％,the annual rate of acute exacerbation-related hospitalizations declined by about 72％,and the proportion of patients with regular pulmonary rehabilitation exercise habits increased by roughly 3.3-fold.Additionally,the percentage of patients without adverse reactions rose from 47.37％to 64.41％,and the vaccination rate increased by about 2.7-fold.These findings demonstrate the model's significant advantages in improving clinical outcomes,enhancing patient adherence,and reducing healthcare costs.Despite benefits,howev-er,the"Physician-Pharmacist Co-management"model in China faces several challenges,including limited public awareness,gaps in pharmacist training,and insufficient policy support.To address these challenges,this study recommends strengthening public education,establishing comprehensive evaluation systems for pharmaceutical professionals,and improving incentive mech-anisms.Overall,the findings suggest that the"Physician-Pharmacist Co-management"model holds considerable promise for im-proving the quality of chronic disease management,enhancing patient adherence,and optimizing healthcare resource utilization in China.

BACKGROUND:Halo gravity traction is a pre-operative traction method recognized by many scholars,but most of them rely on clinical observation and lack finite element analysis. OBJECTIVE:To explore the best traction force of Halo gravity traction on Lenke 3 scoliosis by finite element method and to provide a theoretical basis for clinics from a biomechanical point of view. METHODS:The CT images scanned by patients with scoliosis were processed by reverse modeling,and a finite element model was established.The validity of the model was verified by taking normal segments(T1-T4 vertebral bodies).Five groups of different stress conditions were set on the lumbar-thoracic scoliosis model to simulate the correction of patients under different traction forces.In all five groups,the lower surface of L5 was completely restrained,and different traction forces were applied to the upper surface of T1 along the positive direction of the Z axis(the opposite direction of gravity),which were 50,100,150,200,and 250 N,respectively.The displacement of the scoliosis spine,Cobb angle change of the main bending,elongation of the spine,and Von Mises stress were compared under different traction forces. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When the Halo gravity traction force was 150 N to 200 N,the reduction of the Cobb angle of the main bending was 69.4%to 88.9%of the maximum reduction;the elongation of the Z axis was 69.4%to 85.9%,and the stress was 63.6%to 82.9%of the maximum stress.(2)When the traction force was greater than 200 N,the reduction of the Cobb angle and the elongation of the Z axis did not change obviously,but the stress value increased sharply.At this time,the distance from the centroids of T6,T7,and T8 to the vertical line of L5 was the most obvious.(3)When the Halo gravity traction force was 150 N to 200 N,the correction effect on this type of patient was the best—the reduction of Cobb angle and the elongation of the Z axis were better without the sharp increase in stress.(4)It has certain theoretical support for clinical correction and can ensure the safety of patients when scoliosis is corrected to a large extent.

Objective: To understand the social adaptation in the association between attitude towards parents with academic anxiety among middle school students in Chongqing, so as to provide a basis and thinking method for theoretical framework of family education and youth development. Methods: Convenient and clustering sampling method was used to select 34 097 middle school students aged 13-18 years during September to November 2023. All the participants were investigated with self designed questionnaire, Social Adaptability Scale and Mental Health Test. The mediating effect of social adaptability in the relationship between students attitudes towards their parents academic anxiety was evaluated by using Logistic regression analysis and structural equation model. Results: The proportion of high school students in Chongqing with academic anxiety was 48.80%. Academic anxiety differed significantly by sex, academic grade, attitude towards parents, and social adaptability ( χ 2=948.45, 173.92, 537.51, 4 770.04, P < 0.01). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that positive attitudes towards parents were positively correlated with moderate academic anxiety ( OR=1.13, 95%CI =1.08-1.18) and high academic anxiety ( OR=1.14, 95%CI =1.09-1.19) ( P < 0.05 ). The results of the mediation effect analysis showed that positive attitude of middle school students towards their parents negatively predicted academic anxiety ( β= -0.12 , P <0.01), but when social adaptation ability was used as a control variable, the original negative relationship between the positive attitude towards parents and academic anxiety of middle school students changed ( β=0.02, P <0.01), and social adaptation ability played a masking effect in the relationship. The social adaptation ability of middle school students played a mediating role in the relationship between their positive attitudes towards their parents and academic anxiety, with a mediating effect of -0.63. Conclusions The attitude of middle school students towards their parents will directly affect academic anxiety, and also have an indirect impact on academic anxiety through social adaptability, but there is a cover effect. Pay more attention to family education and actively focus on students social adaptability can contribute to improve the mental health level of adolescents.

Background and objective Neoantigen reactive T cell(NRT)has the ability to inhibit the growth of tumors expressing specific neoantigens.However,due to the difficult immune infiltration and the inhibition of tumor micro en-vironment,the therapeutic effect of NRT in solid tumors is limited.In this study,we designed NRT cells(7×19 NRT)that can express both interleukin-7(IL-7)and chemokine C-C motif ligand 19(CCL19)in mouse lung cancer cells,and evaluated the difference in anti-tumor effect between 7×19 NRT cells and conventional NRT cells.Methods We performed next-generation sequencing and neoantigen prediction for mouse Lewis lung carcinoma(LLC),prepared RNA vaccine,cultured NRT cells,constructed retroviral vectors encoding IL-7 and CCL19,transduced NRT cells and IL-7 and CCL19 were successfully ex-pressed,and 7×19 NRT was successfully obtained.The anti-tumor effect was evaluated in vivo and in vitro in mice.Results The 7×19 NRT cells significantly enhanced the proliferation and invasion ability of T cells by secreting IL-7 and CCL19,achieved significant tumor inhibition in the mouse lung cancer and extended the survival period of mice.The T cell infiltration into tumor tissue and the necrosis of tumor tissue increased significantly after 7×19 NRT treatment.In addition,both 7×19 NRT treatment and conventional NRT treatment were safe.Conclusion The anti-solid tumor ability of NRT cells is significantly enhanced by the arming of IL-7 and CCL19,which is a safe and effective genetic modification of NRT.
