Through the evaluation of literature evidence, it was found that the stability and concentration accuracy of the powder-liquid double-chamber bag were higher than those of the traditional powder injection, and the domestic supply had been achieved. The double-chamber bag method can reduce the infusion reaction and shorten the preparation time of the liquid medicine. Conclusion Compared with traditional powder injectabler products, powder-liquid double-chamber bags have advantages in the dimensions of effectiveness, safety, economy, suitability and innovation, and the accessibility dimension meets the requirements.

Objective To construct a nomogram prediction model based on anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody(anti-CCP an-tibody)and rheumatoid factor(RF)to predict the probability of cardiovascular disease(CVD)in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods A total of 437 RA patients admitted to Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to February 2024 were selected as the study objects,the clinical data of the patients were collected,and they were divided into RA+CVD group(n=88)and RA group(n=349)according to the follow-up results.The risk factors of CVD in RA patients were screened by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis,and the prediction model of CVD in RA patients was constructed and internally validated.Results Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,course of disease,uric acid,C-reactive protein,hyperten-sion and diabetes,anti-CCP antibody and RF were independent risk factors for CVD in RA patients(P＜0.05).The constructed mod-el was internally validated.The area under the area(AUC)of the training set and the validation set were 0.891(95％CI:0.851-0.930)and 0.867(95％CI:0.790-0.944).Conclusion The prediction model constructed in this paper has good predictive and dis-crimination ability,and has a high predictive value for whether RA patients are complicated with CVD.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between the mechanism of mild hypothermia-induced reduction of neuronal apoptosis during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) and calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase kinase 2 (CaMKK2)/adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway in rats.Methods:Forty SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 200-250 g, were divided into 5 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (Sham group), cerebral I/R group (IR group), hypothermia + cerebral I/R group (HIR group), hypothermia + cerebral ischemia-reperfusion + solvent group (HIR-DMSO group) and hypothermia + ischemia-reperfusion + CaMKK2 inhibitor STO-609 group (HIR-STO609 group). A global cerebral I/R injury model was established using the four-vessel occlusion method. In HIR group, HIR-DMSO group, and HIR-STO609 group, an ice blanket was used to reduce the body temperature immediately after cerebral ischemia, bringing the core body temperature down to 32.5-33.5 ℃, and rewarming was carried out 4 h later. One hour before developing the model, STO-609 solution 4 μl was injected into the lateral ventricle in HIR-STO609 group, and the equal volume of dimethyl sulfoxide solution was given instead in HIR-DMSO group. At the end of reperfusion, the modified neurological severity score (mNSS) was performed. Then the rats were sacrificed under deep anesthesia, and the hippocampal tissues were taken to observe the pathological results of the hippocampal tissues (using HE staining and Nissl staining) and to determine the apoptosis rate of neurons (by TUNEL method) and expression of B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X (Bax), CaMKK2, phosphorylated AMPK (p-AMPK) and AMPK (by Western blot). Results:Compared with Sham group, the mNSS and apoptosis rate of neurons in the hippocampal tissues were significantly increased, the expression of Bax was up-regulated, the expression of Bcl-2, CaMKK2 and p-AMPK was down-regulated, and the ratio of p-AMPK/AMPK was decreased in IR group ( P<0.05). Compared with IR group, the mNSS and apoptosis rate of neurons in the hippocampal tissues were significantly decreased, the expression of Bax was down-regulated, the expression of Bcl-2, CaMKK2 and p-AMPK was up-regulated, and the ratio of p-AMPK/AMPK was increased in HIR group ( P<0.05). Compared with HIR group, the mNSS and apoptosis rate of neurons in the hippocampal tissues were significantly increased, the expression of Bax was up-regulated, the expression of Bcl-2, CaMKK2 and p-AMPK was down-regulated, the ratio of p-AMPK/AMPK was decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the aforementioned parameters in HIR-DMSO group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Mild hypothermia can inhibit neuronal apoptosis by up-regulating the CaMKK2/AMPK signaling pathway, thus reducing cerebral I/R injury in rats.

Psoriasis is an incurable chronic inflammatory disease that requires new interventions. Here, we found that fibroblasts exacerbate psoriasis progression by promoting macrophage recruitment via CCL2 secretion by single-cell multi-omics analysis. The natural small molecule celastrol was screened to interfere with the secretion of CCL2 by fibroblasts and improve the psoriasis-like symptoms in both murine and cynomolgus monkey models. Mechanistically, celastrol directly bound to the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) β-chain and abolished its binding to the transcription factor c-Jun in the nucleus, which in turn inhibited CCL2 production by skin fibroblasts, blocked fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and ameliorated psoriasis progression. Notably, fibroblast-specific LRP1 knockout mice exhibited a significant reduction in psoriasis like inflammation. Taken together, from clinical samples and combined with various mouse models, we revealed the pathogenesis of psoriasis from the perspective of fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and provided a foundation for LRP1 as a novel potential target for psoriasis treatment.

Gelsemium elegans (G. elegans) is an extremely poisonous plant that is widely distributed in southern China and southeastern Asia. G. elegans poisoning events occur frequently in southern China, and are therefore an urgent public health problem requiring multidisciplinary action. However, the toxic components and toxicological mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we describe a systematic investigation on the toxic components of G. elegans, resulting in the isolation and identification of 120 alkaloids. Based on acute toxicity screening, the structure-toxicity relationship of Gelsemium alkaloids was proposed for the first time. Moreover, gelsedine- and humantenine-type alkaloids were detected in the clinical blood sample, and were confirmed to be causative in the poisoning. The most toxic compound, gelsenicine (1), had selective inhibitory effects toward ventral respiratory group (VRG) neurons in the medulla, which is the main brain region controlling respiration in the central nervous system. Gelsenicine (1) strongly inhibited the firing of action potentials in VRG neurons through its ability to stimulate GABA_A receptors, the main receptors involved in inhibitory neurotransmission. Application of GABA_A receptor antagonists successively reversed action potential firing in gelsenicine (1)-treated VRG neurons. Importantly, the GABA_A receptor antagonists securinine and flumazenil significantly increased the survival of poisoned animals. Our findings provide insight into the components and mechanisms of G. elegans toxicity, and should assist the development of effective emergency treatments for G. elegans poisoning.

This study aimed to comprehensively examine the association of gallstones, cholecystectomy, and cancer risk. Multivariable logistic regressions were performed to estimate the observational associations of gallstones and cholecystectomy with cancer risk, using data from a nationwide cohort involving 239 799 participants. General and gender-specific two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was further conducted to assess the causalities of the observed associations. Observationally, a history of gallstones without cholecystectomy was associated with a high risk of stomach cancer (adjusted odds ratio (aOR)=2.54, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.50-4.28), liver and bile duct cancer (aOR=2.46, 95% CI 1.17-5.16), kidney cancer (aOR=2.04, 95% CI 1.05-3.94), and bladder cancer (aOR=2.23, 95% CI 1.01-5.13) in the general population, as well as cervical cancer (aOR=1.69, 95% CI 1.12-2.56) in women. Moreover, cholecystectomy was associated with high odds of stomach cancer (aOR=2.41, 95% CI 1.29-4.49), colorectal cancer (aOR=1.83, 95% CI 1.18-2.85), and cancer of liver and bile duct (aOR=2.58, 95% CI 1.11-6.02). MR analysis only supported the causal effect of gallstones on stomach, liver and bile duct, kidney, and bladder cancer. This study added evidence to the causal effect of gallstones on stomach, liver and bile duct, kidney, and bladder cancer, highlighting the importance of cancer screening in individuals with gallstones.
