Objective:To explore the related prognostic factors in patients with aortic dissection (AD) after surgery or interventional therapy, and to construct a multi-factor Cox regression analysis nomogram prediction model.Methods:The clinical data of patients diagnosed with AD in the emergency department of Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University of Shandong Province from January 2019 to December 2021 were collected to analyze retrospectively. The survival time was followed up, the survival curve was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method, the difference of survival rate among different Stanford types was tested by Log-Rank test, and Cox regression univariate and multivariate survival analysis was used to screen the prognostic factors. According to the results of multivariate analysis, the death risk nomogram model after AD was established, the differentiation of the model was evaluated by C-index, the accuracy of the model was evaluated by calibration curve, and the clinical benefit of the model was evaluated by decision curve analysis (DCA).Results:A total of 256 patients with AD were included, the mortality rate was 4.45% (37/256), and the overall survival rates at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after operation were 90.23%, 87.50% and 85.55%, respectively. There was no significant difference in postoperative survival rate among AD patients with different Stanford types (χ 2=2.30, P=0.13). Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that history of hypertension ( HR=3.791, 95% CI 1.150-12.501, P=0.029), number of branch vessels involved ( HR=1.210, 95% CI 1.029-1.422, P=0.021), preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ( HR=0.936, 95% CI 0.880-0.996, P=0.038) and perioperative complications ( HR=4.024, 95% CI 1.839-8.807, P<0.001) were independent prognostic factors in patients with AD. Furthermore, the predictive nomogram model of 3-month, 6-month and 12-month survival rate in patients with AD was constructed, and the C-index was 0.778. The calibration curve indicated that the accuracy of the model was good, and the clinical benefit of the DCA model was good. Conclusions:Hypertension history, the number of branch vessels involved, preoperative LVEF and perioperative complications are independent risk factors of postoperative death in patients with AD. The nomogram prediction model based on the above factors can be used to evaluate the postoperative survival of patients with AD.

Transient receptor potential vanilloid-1(TRPV1) channel is a non-selective ligand-gated cationic channel with multiple activation mechanisms in the transient receptor potential subfamily. In recent years, a large number of studies have found that TRPV1 plays an important role in the field of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension and atherosclerosis. With the in-depth study of traditional Chinese medicine, it has been found that Chinese medicine monomers and their active components can activate or inhibit TRPV1 channels, which has certain potential in the study of cardiovascular diseases. In this paper, the role of TRPV1 channel in cardiovascular diseases and the research progress of traditional Chinese medicine prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases based on TRPV1 channel are reviewed, in order to provide new ideas for prevention and treatment of cardiovascular system diseases.

Objective Exploring the mechanism of electroacupuncture's anti anxiety effect through methods such as hippocampal metabolomics and 16S rRNA sequencing.Methods Rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,electroacupuncture group,and diazepam group.A rat model of anxiety disorder was prepared using chronic restraint stress method.During the modeling period of the electroacupuncture group,simultaneous"Zusanli"acupoint electroacupuncture intervention was performed for 30 minutes each time,once a day,for 21 days.The diazepam group received daily gavage of diazepam for a total of 21 days.After the completion of modeling,open field experiments and elevated cross maze experiments were conducted to observe the behavior of rats.Subsequently,pathological staining was performed to observe the pathological changes in the hippocampus and colon of rats.Metabolomics detection of changes in metabolites in the hippocampus of rats.16S rRNA and short chain fatty acid analysis were used to detect changes in gut microbiota and short chain fatty acids in rats.Western blot detection of Occludin in the colon and TLR4,NF-κB P65 and NLRP3 in the hippocampus of rats.Immunofluorescence detection of IBA-1,NLRP3,and IL-1β in the hippocampus Protein expression.Result The results of the open field experiment showed that compared with the normal group,the total activity distance(P<0.001),central area activity distance(P<0.01),and average velocity(P<0.01)of the model group decreased.Compared with the model group,the total activity distance(P<0.05,P<0.001),central area activity distance(P<0.05,P<0.01),and average velocity(P<0.05,P<0.01)of the electroacupuncture group and diazepam group all increased.The results of the elevated cross maze experiment showed that compared with the normal group,the model group had a decrease in OE%(P<0.001)and OT%(P<0.001).Compared with the model group,both the electroacupuncture group and the diazepam group could increase OE%(P<0.05,P<0.001)and OT%(P<0.01,P<0.001).The HE staining results of the hippocampus showed that the CA1 area of the hippocampus in the normal group rats showed clear and hierarchical structures in various regions of the hippocampus.In the hippocampus of the model group,a small amount of neural cell nuclei in the CA1 area were observed to be wrinkled and deeply stained,with unclear cell boundaries and irregular arrangement,and the cytoplasm was vacuolate.The intervention of electroacupuncture and diazepam can alleviate the above pathological phenomena to varying degrees,respectively;The results of hippocampal metabolomics showed that electroacupuncture can improve hippocampal metabolic disorders caused by modeling,mainly involving taurine and low taurine metabolism,cysteine and methionine metabolism,and regulation of glycine,serine,and threonine metabolic pathways;The results of 16S rRNA sequencing and short chain fatty acid detection showed that electroacupuncture can improve the disturbance of intestinal microbiota caused by modeling,and can regulate serum LPS and levels of butyric acid,caproic acid,and valeric acid.HE staining and Western blot results showed that the model group had pathological damage to the intestine,and compared with the normal group,the expression of Occludin in the colon of the model group decreased(P<0.05).However,the intervention of electroacupuncture and diazepam could improve the pathological damage of the colon and upregulate the expression of Occludin(P<0.05,P<0.05).The immunofluorescence results showed that compared with the normal group,the expression levels of IBA-1,NLRP3,and IL-1β in the hippocampus of the model group increased(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.01),while compared with the model group,the electroacupuncture group and diazepam group could reduce the expression levels of IBA-1(P<0.05,P<0.05),NLRP3(P<0.05,P<0.05),and IL-1β(P<0.05,P<0.05).Western blot results showed that compared with the normal group,the expression levels of TLR4,NF-κB P65,and NLRP3 proteins in the hippocampus of the model group increased(P<0.05,P<0.001,P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the electroacupuncture group and diazepam group were able to downregulate the expression levels of NF-κB P65(P<0.01,P<0.001)and NLRP3(P<0.05,P<0.05)proteins.Conclusion The anxiolytic of electroacupuncture involves the regulation of the"microbiota-gut-brain"axis.

Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase(AMPK) is a highly conserved serine/ threonine protein kinase which plays an important role in regulating energy metabolism of the systemic cells. Under stress conditions, such as ischemia and hypoxia, AMPK can be activated.Then it plays a neuroprotective role in regulating mechanisms such as oxidative stress, autophagy, apoptosis and neuroinflammation and so on. Researches have found that chronic cerebral hypoperfusion may be a major cause of vascular cognitive impairment(VCI).AMPK can exert neuroprotective effects on VCI by regulating the aforementioned pathological processes.Therefore, this article reviews the molecular biological characteristics of AMPK and its role and mechanism in VCI, with the aim of promoting further research on AMPK and making it a new target for VCI treatment.
