Berberine is a kind of isoquinoline alkaloid extracted from the roots and rhizomes of many medicinal plants,such as Coptis chinensis of Ranunculus family,Phellodendron chinensis of rutaceae family,and Berberine Sanacanthus family.In recent years,with the deepening of research,berberine has shown re-markable prevention and treatment effect in a variety of neuro-psychiatric disease models.This paper summarizes the research progress of berberine in neuropsychiatric diseases and provides theoretical support for further clinical prevention and treatment of neuropsychiatric diseases.

Aim To investigate the high expression of LINC00626 in colorectal cancer,and explore the effects of LINC00626 on the proliferation,apoptosis,and drug sensitivity of colorectal cancer SW480 cells,as well as its underlying mechanisms.Methods Flu-orescence in situ hybridization(FISH)was used to de-tect the expression levels of LINC00626 in 38 colorec-tal cancer tissues and their corresponding adjacent nor-mal tissues.The JASPAR database was utilized to pre-dict co-expressed genes and their possible binding sites.Cell transfection technology was employed to knockdown LINC00626.Western blot and qRT-PCR techniques were used to verify the transfection efficien-cy.CCK-8 assay,cell apoptosis and necrosis staining,and Western blot were used to detect the changes in the proliferation,apoptosis,drug sensitivity,and ap-optotic proteins of SW480 cells,respectively.Results The FISH results indicated that LINC00626 was highly expressed in colorectal cancer tissues(P＜0.05).The expression of LINC00626 was not associat-ed with the age or gender of patients,but was related to the TNM stage and the presence of lymph node me-tastasis($ P＜0.05 $).The results of CCK-8 assay and cell apoptosis and necrosis staining showed that af-ter knockdown of LINC00626,the proliferation ability of SW480 cells decreased,the apoptosis level in-creased,and the drug resistance decreased(P＜0.05).Western blot results showed that with the de-crease in the expression level of LINC00626,the ex-pression of caspase-3 protein decreased,the expression of cleaved caspase-3 protein increased,and the expres-sion of Bcl-2 protein decreased(P＜0.05).Conclu-sions LINC00626 is highly expressed in colorectal cancer and is associated with the TNM stage and the presence of lymph node metastasis.LINC00626 can af-fect the proliferation,apoptosis,and drug sensitivity of SW480 cells and alter the expression of apoptotic pro-teins.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of scrub typhus in Liuyang People's Hospital Hunan Province for better diagnosis,treatment,prevention and control of scrub typhus.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 159 confirmed cases of scrub typhus.The demographic data of patients,clinical manifestations of scrub typhus,laboratory tests,and chest CT findings,complications,treatment,and outcomes were analyzed.Results The 159 patients with scrub typhus included 142 males and 17 females.The average age of patients was(53.8±11.9)(18-82)years old.The peak incidence of scrub typhus was in the period from July to September(87.42％).The common clinical manifestations included fever(97.48％),headache(41.51％),and fatigue(23.90％).The most common signs were eschar(92.45％)on the lower limbs(25.16％),scrotum(15.72％),and buttocks(11.32％).Laboratory test results upon admission showed decreased platelet count(64.15％),elevated creatinine(38.36％),elevated AST(90.57％),ALT(80.50％),and LDH(90.57％).Pulmonary imaging study revealed pulmonary inflammation(22.64％),pleural effusion(13.21％),and pericardial effusion(6.29％).The common complications included liver impairment(69.81％)and decreased platelet count(50.94％),as well as other complications such as renal dysfunction,myocardial injury,sepsis,respiratory failure,and disseminated intravascular coagulation(DIC).Doxycycline-based therapies resulted in cure rate of 98.11％(156/159).Three patients died due to severe complications.Conclusions The peak incidence of scrub typhus was in the period from July to September in Hunan Province.Eschar is a key feature for clinical diagnosis.Scrub typhus can affect multiple organ systems,leading to various systemic complications.The cure rate is high with doxycycline treatment,but some patients may die from severe complications due to delayed medical treatment.

Objective:To observe the impact of ultra early neurorehabilitation combined with cognitive intervention training on the psychological state,neurological function,and quality of life of stroke patients.Methods:89 stroke patients who were admitted to our hospital from April 2023 to May 2024 were divided into control group(conventional rehabilitation intervention combined with cognitive intervention training,44 cases)and study group(control group combined with ultra early neurological rehabilitation,45 cases)by using random number table method.The neurological function,daily self-care ability,psychological state,quality of life,and satisfaction between two groups were compared.Results:14 d after intervention,the study group had lower scores on the national institutes of health stroke scale(NIHSS),self rating anxiety scale(SAS),and self rating depression Scale(SDS)compared to the control group,had higher scores of the comprehensive quality of life evaluation questionnaire-74(CQOLI-74)and the modified barthel index(MBI)(P＜0.05).The overall satisfaction rate of the study group was higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Ultra early neurorehabilitation combined with cognitive intervention training can effectively improve the neurological function and daily self-care ability of stroke patients,reduce anxiety and depression,improve their quality of life,and achieve good patient satisfaction.

Cyclic GMP-AMP synthase(cGAS)is a congenital immune sensor that can recognize cytoplasm abnormal dsDNA.By catalyzing the second messenger cyclic GMP-AMP(cGAMP)formation,it activates stimulator of interferon genes(STING),releases type Ⅰ interferon and inflammatory cytokines,activates the host immune response,and participates in cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury(CIRI)cascade reaction.This article reviews the research progress of the mechanism of cGAS-STING signaling pathway participation in CIRI,hoping to provide ideas for its treatment.

Objective To investigate the influence of Liraglutide on carotid intima-media thickness(CIMT)and serum Sirtuin protein 6(SIRT6)in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)complicated with carotid atherosclerosis(CAS).Methods A total of 120 hospitalized patients with T2DM complicated with CAS were enrolled in this study from the Department of Endocrinology of Affiliated Renhe Hospital of China Three Gorges University and Yiling Hospital of Yichang City from July 2022 to January 2024.All the patients were randomly divided into Liraglutide(Lir,n=59)group and control(Con,n=61)group.Lir group was treated with Liraglutide combined with current hypoglycemic regimen.Con group was adjusted based on the original hypoglycemic scheme.The expression of serum SIRT6 and CIMT were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results After 24 weeks treatment,the fasting plasma glucose(FPG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2 hPG),glycatde hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)and high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)levels were all decreased in both groups(P<0.05 or P<0.01).BMI,TC,TG,LDL-C,plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1)and CIMT were significantly lower(P<0.05),while SIRT6 and superoxide dismutase(SOD)was significantly higher in the Lir group after treatment(P<0.05).Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis showed that CIMT was positively correlated with BMI,FPG,2 hPG,HbA1c,TC,TG,LDL-C,hs-CRP,PAI-1,DM duration(r=0.322,0.218,0.202,0.610,0.363,0.238,0.343,0.558,0.183,0.371,P<0.05 or P<0.01),and negatively correlated with SIRT6,SOD and HDL-C(r=-0.525,-0.432,-0.207,P<0.05 or P<0.01).SIRT6 was negatively correlated with BMI,HbA1c,TC,LDL-C,hs-CRP and PAI-1(r=-0.320,-0.550,-0.408,-0.422,-0.769,-0.224,P<0.05 or P<0.01),and positively correlated with SOD(r=0.550,P<0.01).Multiple stepwise regression showed that hs-CRP and SOD were independent influencing factors for SIRT6.HbA1c and SIRT6 were influencing factors for CIMT of T2DM patients.Conclusions Liraglutide could improve glucose and lipid metabolism,increase serum SIRT6 and decrease CIMT.
