Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of Jianfu mixture in the treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED） by network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques, and validate its core targets and mechanisms through in vitro experiments. Methods The active components and corresponding molecular targets of Jianfu mixture were searched by searching TCMSP and Batman-TCM databases, and the disease targets of ED were searched by using GeneCards database. Find the intersection of drug ingredient target and disease target. The interaction between intersected targets was described and analyzed by String database, and the analysis results were visualized by Cytoscape software to determine the core target and the corresponding active components. GO functional enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed for intersection targets; the core target within the intersection were found through MCODE plug-in on Cytoscape software and molecular docking was performed with the corresponding active ingredients. An endothelial dysfunction model was established by transfecting HUVECs with si-eNOS. Intervene with different concentrations of the Jianfu mixture for the model cells for 24 h. QPCR was used to detect mRNA expression of core targets （MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1, MAPK8）; Western blot was used to analyze protein expression （eNOS, JUN, p-JUN, MAPK, p-MAPK） and phosphorylation levels. Results 144 effective active components and 168 active components target-disease targe intersection of Jianfu mixture were obtained. GO analysis revealed 200 5 biological processes, 151 molecular functions, and 63 cellular components. KEGG analysis yielded 181 pathways. 5 core targets including MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1 and MAPK8 were screened out. The active components such as β-sitosterol, kaempferol, astapterocarpan had good binding affinity with the core target. In vitro experiments confirmed successful construction of the endothelial dysfunction model （eNOS expression significantly decreased after si-eNOS transfection）. Jianfu mixture dose-dependently inhibited mRNA expression of MAPK1, MAPK3, JUN, ESR1, and MAPK8. Additionally, it reduced phosphorylation levels of JUN and MAPK, indicating inhibition of the JNK/c-Jun and ERK/MAPK signaling pathways to improve endothelial function. Conclusion Jianfu mixture treats ED by suppressing abnormal activation of multi-target signaling pathways （MAPK/JUN/ESR1）, reducing endothelial apoptosis, and promoting NO synthesis. This mechanism aligns with the traditional Chinese medicine principle of “activating blood circulation, resolving stasis, tonifying Qi, and strengthening cardiovascular function.” The study provided molecular-level evidence for the therapeutic efficacy of Jianfu mixture in ED management.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Huatan Quyu formula in treating cerebral small vessel disease （CSVD） with phlegm and blood stasis blocking collateral pattern via randomized controlled trial， and explore its mechanism of improving CSVD by regulating glymphatic system （GS） circulation. MethodsSixty-eight CSVD patients with phlegm and blood stasis blocking collateral pattern in the Department of Encephalopathy， Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine from April to December 2024 were selected and randomly divided into an experimental group （34 cases） and a control group， with 34 cases in each group. Both groups received basic Western medicine treatment， while the experimental group additionally received Huatan Quyu formula. After a course of 12 weeks， the following parameters were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Clinical outcomes were assessed using the Tinetti performance-oriented mobility assessment （POMA）， Montreal Cognitive Assessment （MoCA）， Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease-Autonomic （SCOPA-AUT）， and traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome scores of phlegm and blood stasis blocking collateral pattern. Perivascular space （PVS） in the frontal lobe/basal ganglia and cerebrospinal fluid （CSF） flow parameters in the cerebral aqueduct were evaluated by 3.0T brain MRI， cerebrospinal fluid flow imaging， and phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging （PC-MRI）. Then， safety indicators were monitored， and SPSS 25.0 was used for statistical analysis. ResultsSixty-four patients completed the study （32 in each group）. ①Baseline data： No statistically significant difference was found between the two group. ②Efficacy indicators： After treatment， the experimental group exhibited significantly improved total POMA， SCOPA-AUT， and TCM syndrome scores （P<0.01）， outperforming the control group （P<0.05）. No significant change was observed in MoCA scores between the two groups. ③Imaging indicators： The experimental group showed a reduced PVS area alongside significantly increased CSF flow parameters （including downward flow during the systolic period， and upward flow during the diastolic period） （P<0.01）， which were superior to the control group （P<0.01）. ④Safety： The laboratory indicators were normal in both groups， with no drug-related adverse reactions. ConclusionFor CSVD patients with phlegm and blood stasis blocking collateral pattern， Huatan Quyu formula can safely and effectively improve motor function， autonomic nerve function， and TCM syndromes， with potential mechanisms related to pulsatile CSF flow enhancement and GS circulation efficiency improvement.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism by which Qijia Rougan decoction ameliorates liver fibrosis through amino acid/fatty acid metabolic reprogramming and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt） pathway， based on the miRNA-mRNA regulatory network and the interaction between metabolism and signaling pathways. MethodsSprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomized into four groups （n=8）： control， model， and low-dose and high-dose （7.0， 28.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） Qijia Rougan decoction. Liver fibrosis was induced by subcutaneous injection of carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）. From week 9， drug intervention was implemented for 7 weeks. After the final administration， the pathological changes in the liver were evaluated through hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and picrosirius red （PSR） staining. An automated biochemical analyzer was used to measure the serum levels of biochemical indicators， including alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， total bile acid （TBA）， albumin （ALB）， and cholesterol （TC）. High-throughput miRNA sequencing was performed to identify differentially expressed miRNAs （DemiRs） during liver fibrosis. A miRNA-mRNA interaction network was constructed to identify key targets， which were then subjected to GO and KEGG enrichment analyses. The expression levels of selected DemiRs were validated by Real-time PCR. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed marked hepatic lobular necrosis， increased collagen deposition， significant fibrosis， elevated serum levels of ALT， AST， ALP， and TBA （P<0.01）， and declined levels of ALB and TC （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， Qijia Rougan decoction treatment reduced hepatic necrosis， collagen accumulation， and fibrosis， lowered the serum levels of ALT， AST， ALP， and TBA （P<0.01）， and raised the levels of ALB and TC （P<0.01）. Integrated miRNA-seq and RNA-seq analysis identified 31 DemiRs （6 upregulated and 25 downregulated） and 498 targets. The expression trends of four selected DemiRs， including rno-miRNA-376b-3p， were consistent with sequencing results （R²=0.93）. Functional annotation revealed that top 20 upregulated targets were enriched in amino acid and fatty acid metabolism， while top 20 downregulated targets were significantly associated with the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and cancer progression. ConclusionQijia Rougan decoction alleviates liver fibrosis by reconstructing the miRNA-mRNA regulatory network， promoting metabolic reprogramming， and inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. These findings provide mechanism evidence supporting the multi-targeted antifibrotic effects of traditional Chinese medicine compound formulas.

Objective: To evaluate the methodological quality and reporting quality of clinical practice guidelines or expert consensus on blood transfusion and blood use (BTBU) in China (hereinafter referred to as "guidelines/consensus"), providing reference for the development and updating of future BTBU guidelines/consensus. Methods: A systematic search was conducted in Chinese databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, VIP Data-base, relevant guideline release platforms, and professional association websites. BTBU-related guidelines/consensus published between January 2006 and December 2025 were included. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, after completing literature screening and data extraction, three evaluators independently assessed the quality of the included literature using the Scientificity, Transparency, and Applicability of Guidelines Rating Tool (STAR), the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE Ⅱ), and the International Practice Guideline Reporting Standards (RIGHT). Results: A total of 29 documents were included, including 5 guidelines, 22 consensus statements, and 2 protocols. The results of the STAR assessment showed that the total score was (21.7±8.8)%. The domain score ratios for registration, research protocol, funding, working group, conflict of interest, clinical question, evidence, consensus method, recommendation, accessibility and other domains were (2.2±12.1)%, 0, (36.7±25.1)%, (18.3±7.6)%, (19.2±15.3)%, (16.6±23.1)%, (15.1±6.3)%, (9.6±21.2)%, (54.3±18.4)%, (31.7±10.4)% and (10.3±31.0)%, respectively. For the AGREE Ⅱ assessment, the methodological quality of 26 articles was rated Grade B and 3 articles Grade C. The results of the RIGHT assessment indicated that the overall reporting rate of all guidelines/consensuses was (65.3±4.0)%. Conclusion: The methodological and reporting quality of current expert guidelines/consensus on BTBU in China still need improvement, and guidelines and consensus should be strictly formulated and standardized according to the standards of STAR, AGREE II and RIGHT.

N-acetyl-p-aminophenol （APAP） is an antipyretic analgesic commonly used in clinical practice， and APAP overdose can cause severe liver injury and even death. In recent years， the incidence rate of APAP-induced liver injury （AILI） tends to increase， and it has become the second most common cause of liver transplantation worldwide. Autophagy is a highly conserved catabolic process that removes unwanted cytosolic proteins and organelles through lysosomal degradation to achieve the metabolic needs of cells themselves and the renewal of organelles. A large number of studies have shown that autophagy plays a key role in the pathophysiology of AILI， involving the mechanisms such as APAP protein conjugates， oxidative stress， JNK activation， mitochondrial dysfunction， inflammatory response and apoptosis. This article elaborates on the biological mechanism of autophagy in AILI， in order to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of AILI and the development of autophagy regulators.

Objective To investigate the effect of triglyceride-glucose index(TyG)on the short-term prognosis of patients with initial acute ischemic stroke.Methods A total of 391 patients with initial acute ischemic stroke who were hospitalized in Kunshan Second People's Hospital and The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from Jun.2020 to Jun.2023 were retrospectively included.According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)scores at 90 d follow-up,they were assigned to good prognosis group(286 cases)or poor prognosis group(105 cases).Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve were used to evaluate the effect of TyG on the short-term prognosis of patients with initial acute ischemic stroke.Results Compared with the good prognosis group,the patients of poor prognosis group had older age,higher proportion of atrial fibrillation,higher levels of homocysteine,triglyceride,total cholesterol,low-density lipoprotein,and TyG,and higher National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score(all P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,homocysteine,TyG and NIHSS score were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with initial acute ischemic stroke(all P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that TyG combined with NIHSS score had good predictive value for poor prognosis of patients with initial acute ischemic stroke,and the area under curve value was 0.795.Conclusion The combination of TyG and NIHSS score is an independent influencing factor for poor short-term prognosis in patients with initial acute ischemic stroke.

Objective To summarize the operation experience of 1 case of ultra-long-distance single-port robotic-assisted laparoscopic renal cyst decortication using a domestic robotic system,and provide references for the development of long-distance telesurgery.Methods The procedure was performed using a domestically produced single-port robotic system.The distance between the main control end and the patient end was 2 400 km.The operation was conducted remotely via a 5G network and a 100 Mbps dedicated line provided by China Telecom.The surgeon controlled the robotic arm remotely.Results The surgery was completed smoothly within a duration of 32 min.The real-time latency was(90±20)ms.Blood loss during the operation was 10 mL,and no drainage tube was placed.The patient recovered smoothly and returned to the ward without any complications.Conclusion It is safe and feasible for the domestically produced single-port robotic system to implement ultra-long-distance telesurgery.This approach facilitates the decentralization of advanced medical resources and helps mitigate disparities in healthcare access.

Objective To explore the effects of preoperative transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)on early postoperative recurrence in the China liver cancer(CNLC)staging Ⅰb-Ⅱa patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods The data of patients with CNLC Ⅰb-Ⅱa stage hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent curative liver resection in Xiangyang Central Hospital from May 2017 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 76 patients were included,patients were divided into preoperative TACE group(n=32)and surgery group(n=44)according to whether they underwent preoperative TACE.Observe the postoperative recovery of patients.Combined with the postoperative pathological results,adjuvant TACE treatment is performed.Regular reexamination and follow-up are conducted after discharge.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate survival time,calculate 95％CI,and plot the Disease-free(DFS)survival curve.The Cox proportional risk model was used for univariate and multivariate analysis.Results The 1-year disease-free survival rate in the preoperative TACE group was higher than that in the direct surgery group(96.9％vs.84.1％,P＞0.05).The 2-year disease-free survival rate in the preoperative TACE group was higher than that in the direct surgery group(90.6％vs.70.5％,P＜0.05).The disease-free survival of the preoperative TACE group was higher than the direct surgery group(23.03 months vs.20.14 months,P＜0.05).The incidence of treatment-related adverse events after surgery in the preoperative TACE group was higher than that in the direct surgery group(34.4％vs.20.5％,P＞0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that different treatment methods,tumor number ≥ 2,and tumor microvascular invasion were prognostic factors affecting tumor recurrence.No severe adverse reactions occurred in either group,and no deaths caused by adverse reactions were observed.Conclusion Compared with direct surgery,preoperative TACE can help improve early postoperative recurrence,prolong patients'disease-free survival,and do not lead to serious adverse events.

Objective To explore the clinical application effects of Chen's pancreatojejunostomy in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods Clinical data of 176 patients who underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy in Xiangyang Central Hospital from January 2019 to December 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the methods of intraoperative pancreatojejunostomy,the patients were divided into two groups,the research group(102 cases)using Chen's pancreatojejunostomy,and the control group(74 cases)using duct-to-mucosa pancreatojejunostomy.The two groups were compared on clinical indicators,including operation time,pancreatojejunostomy time,intraoperative blood loss,incidence of postoperative complications,length of hospital stay,and 30-day postoperative mortality rate.Results All 176 patients successfully underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss,biochemical leakage,abdominal bleeding,upper gastrointestinal bleeding,delayed gastric emptying,bile leakage,abdominal infection,and 30-day postoperative mortality rate(P＞0.05).The pancreatojejunostomy time[(22.33±5.95)min]and operation time[(334.60±66.42)min]in the study group were significantly shorter than those in the control group[(30.70±5.50)min]and[(414.46±60.96)min],with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Two groups of patients did not develop grade C pancreatic fistula.The incidence of grade B pancreatic fistula in the study group(5.88％)was significantly lower compared to the control group(16.22％),and this difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Additionally,The postoperative hospital stay of the study group patients[(17.10±6.89)days]was significantly shorter than in the control group[(20.88±8.40)days],with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).Conclusion Chen's pancreatojejunostomy is a feasible,safe,and effective procedure in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy,which can shorten the pancreatojejunostomy time,reduce the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula,and decrease the length of hospital stay.
