ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio （NLR）， platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio （PLR）， systemic immune-inflammation index （SII） and the severity of intrauterine adhesions （IUA）. MethodsThe retrospective study included 380 patients who underwent transcervical resection of adhesions （TCRA） from December 2019 to March 2025. Based on the American Fertility Society （AFS） classification， patients were divided into mild （n=61）， moderate （n=225）， and severe （n=94） groups. NLR， PLR， and SII were calculated from preoperative blood tests. Statistical analyses included Kruskal-Wallis test and ordinal Logistic regression. ResultsNLR， PLR， and SII were significantly higher in the severe IUA group compared to the mild group （P<0.05）， with SII showing the strongest predictive ability （OR=1.004， P=0.001）. The number of intrauterine procedures was an independent risk factor （OR=1.27/level， P=0.016）. The predictive model ［Logit（P）=-0.676+0.241×operation times+0.004×SII］ effectively identified severe IUA cases. ConclusionInflammatory markers （particularly SII） are correlated with IUA severity and may serve as non-invasive tools for clinical assessment.

ObjectiveTaking Aurantii Fructus Immaturus juice（AFI）-processed Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma（AMR） as an example， this study aims to systematically compare the volatile and non-volatile components of AMR and its processed products， investigate the key differential components， evaluate their anti-inflammatory activities， and elucidate the synergistic mechanism of processing. MethodsThe chemical compositions of volatile and non-volatile components in AMR and AFI-processed AMR were systematically characterized using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS） and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）， with relative mass fractions and response values determined separately. Volatile components were identified through searches in the National Institute of Standards and Technology（NIST）17 database， comparison with retention index（RI） and fragmentation pattern matching. Non-volatile components were identified by searching Waters Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） spectral library， in conjunction with PubChem and MassBank， characteristic fragmentation patterns and response values were also used to support identification. Differential components were screened using principal component analysis（PCA）， orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）， with variable importance in the projection（VIP） value >1. Components with high log₂fold change（FC） among major differential groups were selected as those exhibiting significant changes before and after processing. The anti-inflammatory activity of the differential compounds was evaluated by assessing their effects on nitric oxide（NO） production in a lipopolysaccharide（LPS）-induced RAW264.7 macrophage model. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） was used to detect the effects of the differential components on tumor necrosis factor（TNF）-α， interleukin（IL）-1β， IL-6， and monocyte chemotactic protein（MCP）-1 levels， and immunofluorescence（IF） was employed to assess their effects on nuclear transcription factor（NF）-κB p65 translocation， thereby elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms. ResultsA total of 36 compounds were identified in the volatile components of AMR and AFI-processed AMR， among which， sesquiterpenes and monoterpenes were significantly increased after processing. In the non-volatile components， 36 compounds were identified， and the main differential components were flavonoids， sesquiterpenoids， and triterpenoids. Flavonoids were the primary differential components distinguishing AMR from its processed products， representing compounds directly introduced during processing. Five compounds， including atractylenolide Ⅲ， tangeritin， nobiletin， hesperidin and narirutin， were selected as representatives of three classes based on their most prominent differential expression among different compound types for subsequent anti-inflammatory activity studies. The results showed that 100 μmol·L^-1 tangerine and narirutin could significantly inhibit LPS-induced NO production（P<0.01） in a concentration-dependent manner. Tangeritin was able to significantly inhibit the levels of TNF-α and MCP-1 secreted by RAW264.7（P<0.05）， while narirutin significantly inhibited the levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， MCP-1 and IL-6（P<0.01）. IF revealed that both tangeritin and narirutin significantly blocked the translocation of NF-κB p65 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. ConclusionAFI-processed AMR significantly alters the chemical composition profile of AMR， and the newly introduced flavonoid components during processing may be key to its enhanced anti-inflammatory effects.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current situation of mutual recognition for ethical review outcomes in multicenter clinical research across 10 contracting medical institutions in Guangdong Province， analyze existing issues and propose improvement recommendations， thereby promoting the standardized management of mutual recognition for ethical review outcomes in medical institutions. MethodsData from 381 multicenter clinical studies conducted in these 10 medical institutions from January 24 to October 31， 2024， were collected. Text visualization was performed using Python and the WordCloud library， and statistical analyses were conducted with SPSS 25.0. ResultsOf the 381 studies investigated， industry-sponsored clinical trials （ISTs） accounted for 51.71%， while investigator-initiated clinical trials （IITs） constituted 48.29%. The proportions of ethical committees serving as primary reviewers and collaborative reviewers were 33.33% and 66.67%， respectively. The confirmation methods of mutual recognition outcomes were primarily expedited reviews （50.66%） and meeting reviews （49.34%）， and no cases of “direct confirmation” were found. The Chi-square test revealed statistically significant differences in review confirmation methods based on project type （χ²=14.851， P<0.001） and ethics committee role （χ²= 69.435， P<0.001）. The frequency distribution trend of the contingency table showed that IST projects and primary ethics committees preferred to employ meeting review （58.88% and 79.53% respectively， both higher than the average level of 49.34%）， while IIT projects and the collaborative ethics committees more frequently utilized expedited review （60.87% and 65.75% respectively， both higher than the average level of 50.66%）. ConclusionThe confirmation methods of mutual recognition for ethical review outcomes in multicenter clinical research are significantly associated with the role of the ethics committee and the type of project. It is recommended to improve management systems， enhance information construction and personnel training， as well as clarify mutual recognition responsibilities and strengthen supervision. This aims to ensure review quality while improving mutual recognition efficiency， thereby safeguarding the rights and interests of research participants.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of salt processing of Psoraleae Fructus （PF） through modern analytical techniques and biotechnology， focusing on its effects related to hepatotoxicity and anti-osteoporosis activity. MethodsThe zebrafish model was utilized to evaluate the impact of PF and salt-processed Psoraleae Fructus （SPF） on the hepatotoxicity （using 134.17 ， 178.89， 268.34 mg·L^-1 as low， medium， and high dose groups of PF， 135.04， 180.06， 270.08 mg·L^-1 as low， medium， and high dose groups of SPF， respectively） and anti-osteoporotic activity （using 33.54 ， 67.08 and 134.17 mg·L^-1 as low， medium， and high dose groups of PF， 33.76， 67.52， 135.04 mg·L^-1 as low， medium， and high dose groups of SPF， respectively）， which was using alizarin red skull staining of zebrafish as an indicator of different batches of PF. The specific dosage of a batch of PF was taken as an example. Then ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight-mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS） analysis was employed to identify the chemical composition of PF before and after salt processing， and PCA， OPLS-DA， and independent sample t-test were used to elucidating the compositional changes associated with the effects of salt processing on hepatotoxicity and anti-osteoporosis activity. ResultsUnder specific conditions， PF induced notable hepatotoxicity in zebrafish while simultaneously demonstrating protective effect against prednisolone-induced osteoporosis. In comparison to PF， SPF showed alleviated hepatotoxicity while retaining significant anti-osteoporosis activity. UPLC-Q-TOF-MS analysis revealed that after salt processing， the overall chemical composition of PF showed a downward trend， with 69 components showing a decrease in content， represented by psoralen， and 13 components showing an increase， represented by 4′-O-methyl psoralen B. Further multivariate statistical analysis revealed 11 key differential components before and after salt processing of PF， including psoralen and bakuchiol. ConclusionSalt processing effectively diminishes hepatotoxicity without impairing therapeutic efficacy against osteoporosis of PF， which may be related to the compositional changes before and after salt processing of PF and provides key evidence to reveal the scientific significance of salt processing of PF.

ObjectiveThis paper aims to explore the in vitro anti-psoriasis activity and potential mechanism of Kangfuxin liquid （KFX liquid）， providing experimental evidence for the anti-psoriasis effect of KFX liquid. MethodsFirstly， the uninduced human immortalized keratinocyte cells （HaCaT cells） were divided into seven groups， namely the control group and KFX liquid groups with different doses （5， 10， 20， 40， 80， 160 g·L^-1）. After being treated with different concentrations of KFX liquid， the effect of KFX liquid on the normal cell proliferation was detected by using the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） method. Secondly， the uninduced HaCaT cells were divided into six groups， namely the control group and recombinant human interleukin-7A （rh-IL-7A） groups with different doses （5， 10， 50， 100， 120 g·L^-1）. After being treated with different concentrations of recombinant human interleukin-17A （rh IL-17A） liquid， the effect of rh IL-17A on cell proliferation was detected. The optimal induction concentration was screened. Then， normal HaCaT cells were divided into a control group and KFX liquid groups with different doses （5， 10， 20， 40， 80， 160 g·L^-1）. Except for the control group， the other groups established psoriasis cell models with the optimal induction concentration of rh IL-17A. After being treated with different concentrations of KFX liquid， the effects of KFX liquid on the psoriasis-like HaCaT cell proliferation were investigated. Finally， the uninduced HaCaT cells were divided into six groups， namely the control group， rh IL-17A group， methotrexate （MTX） group， and KFX liquid groups with different doses （20， 40， 80 g·L^-1）. Except for the control group， the other groups used the optimal induction concentration of rh IL-17A to establish psoriasis cell models. After being treated with different drugs， the cell migration levels were detected through scratch assays， and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the relative mRNA expression levels of Ki-67 antigen （Ki67）， S100 calcium-binding protein A7 （S100A7）， S100 calcium-binding protein A8 （S100A8）， and S100 calcium-binding protein A9 （S100A9）， thereby comprehensively evaluating the in vitro anti-psoriasis activity of KFX liquid. By detecting the relative mRNA expression levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and chemokine-20 （CXCL-20） inflammatory-related factors in psoriasis-like HaCaT cells and the protein expression levels of Janus kinase 3 （JAK3）， phosphorylated Janus kinase 3 （p-JAK3）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3）， and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （p-STAT3）， the mechanism was explored. ResultsCompared with that of control group， when treated with 80 g·L^-1 KFX liquid for 72 h （P<0.05） and at different times with 160 g·L^-1 KFX liquid， the HaCaT cell proliferation activity was significantly affected （P<0.01）， while the other concentrations of KFX liquid had no significant differences in cell morphology and cell proliferation activity at different times， indicating that the KFX liquid is relatively safe for HaCaT cells and has no obvious toxic side effects. Compared with that of control group， when treated with different concentrations of rh IL-17A for 24 h， the HaCaT cell proliferation activity was significantly enhanced， and the cell activity was the strongest when the concentration was 100 μg·L^-1 （P<0.05）， with a density close to 100% and intact cell morphology， indicating that 100 μg·L^-1 is the optimal concentration for inducing HaCaT cell proliferation. The results of the KFX liquid treatment on rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like cells show that the KFX liquid not only effectively inhibits the rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like HaCaT cell proliferation activity （P<0.01）， but also significantly reduces the migration ability of rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like HaCaT cells （P<0.01）， and the relative mRNA expression levels of Ki67， S100A7， S100A8， and S100A9 （P<0.01）. Moreover， the KFX liquid can significantly reduce the relative mRNA expression levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and CXCL-20 in rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like cells （P<0.01）， and significantly inhibit the phosphorylation levels of JAK3 and STAT3 proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThe KFX liquid has no obvious toxicity to uninduced HaCaT cells. It can inhibit rh IL-17A-induced psoriasis-like HaCaT cell proliferation， reduce the cell migration ability， and has good in vitro anti-psoriasis activity. Its action mechanism may be related to downregulating the expression levels of inflammation-related cytokines in the JAK3/STAT3 signaling pathway and inhibiting the phosphorylation levels of JAK3 and STAT3 proteins.

Background/Aims: Non-pharmacological treatments are crucial for managing irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), yet patient engagement remains a challenge. Understanding patients' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding these treatments is essential for improving care. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted across 5 hospitals, from October 2023 to February 2024. A self-designed knowledge, attitudes, and practices questionnaire along with the IBS quality of life and IBS severity scoring system was administered, and 496 valid responses were analyzed. Statistical analyses included correlation tests, multivariate linear regression, and mediation effect analysis. Results: The median scores for knowledge, attitude, and practice were 28, 25.5, and 21, respectively. Significant positive correlations were found between knowledge-attitude (r = 0.195), knowledge-practice (r = 0.364), and attitude-practice (r = 0.151). The multivariate linear regression analysis further indicated that knowledge (β = 0.399, P < 0.001) and attitude (β = 0.219, P = 0.022) positively correlated with the practical performance. SEM revealed that knowledge had a significant direct effect on both attitude (β = 0.186, P = 0.013) and practice (β = 0.356, P = 0.006). However, the direct effect of attitude on practice was not significant, and attitude did not mediate the relationship between knowledge and practice. Conclusions IBS patients exhibit a significant gap between their positive attitudes and their actual practices concerning non-pharmacological treatments. Knowledge is a direct driver of practice, but positive attitudes alone are insufficient to translate into behavior. Healthcare providers must move beyond simply fostering positive attitudes and focus on targeted educational interventions that provide actionable knowledge and skills to improve patient outcomes.

ObjectiveTo investigate the preventive and therapeutic effects of Qingfei Paidu decoction (QFPDD) on acute lung injury (ALI) in mice and its underlying molecular mechanisms based on miRNA sequencing technology. MethodsTwenty-four 4-week-old male KM mice were randomly divided into a control group, a model group, and a QFPDD group (n = 8 per group). After one week of acclimatization, mice in the control and model groups were intragastrically administered ultrapure water (0.2 mL per dose), whereas mice in the QFPDD group were intragastrically administered QFPDD (1.6 g crude drug/mL, 0.2 mL per dose), twice daily for 8 consecutive days. On days 2–8, mice in the model and QFPDD groups were exposed to aerosolized lipopolysaccharide (LPS) solution (2.5 g/L, 4 mL per exposure) for 7 consecutive days. On day 9, blood was collected via the retro-orbital venous plexus under deep anesthesia, and lung tissues were harvested. Body weight and lung weight were measured, and the lung coefficient was calculated. Serum levels of inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 were detected by ELISA. Lung histopathological changes were observed by HE staining of paraffin-embedded sections. miRNA expression profiles in lung tissues were analyzed using the Illumina HiSeq 2500 sequencing platform. Target genes of differentially expressed miRNAs were predicted using bioinformatics databases, and functional enrichment analysis of these target genes was performed using gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) databases. Differentially expressed miRNAs were validated by reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR). ResultsCompared with the control group, the model group showed a consistent body weight growth trend but a significantly increased lung coefficient (P < 0.01). ELISA results showed that serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly elevated in the model group compared with the control group (P < 0.01), whereas QFPDD treatment significantly reduced serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels compared with the model group (P < 0.05). HE staining showed that, compared with the control group, the model group exhibited widened alveolar septa, massive inflammatory cell infiltration, partial alveolar expansion, and mild capillary dilation with congestion. In contrast, the QFPDD group showed only slightly widened alveolar septa and mild inflammatory cell infiltration compared with the model group. Intersection analysis of miRNA sequencing data identified 13 differentially expressed miRNAs common to both the model vs. control and QFPDD vs. model comparisons. Among them, 6 miRNAs (mmu-miR-203-3p, mmu-miR-181b-5p_R-1, hsa-miR-4286_R+1, mmu-miR-1843b-5p_L+1R-1_2, mmu-miR-22-3p, and mmu-miR-1964-3p) were significantly up-regulated in the model group (P < 0.05) and significantly down-regulated after QFPDD treatment (P < 0.05), showing a therapeutic reversal trend. GO analysis revealed that the target genes of the differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly enriched in biological processes such as RNA polymerase Ⅱ transcriptional regulation. KEGG analysis indicated that target genes were mainly enriched in signaling pathways including the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway. RT-qPCR validation result for mmu-miR-203-3p was consistent with the sequencing analysis results. ConclusionQFPDD may exert preventive and therapeutic effects against ALI by regulating the expression of mmu-miR-203-3p and other miRNAs, thereby modulating inflammatory responses and the MAPK signaling pathway and participating in the pathological process of lung injury.

The liver is a vital metabolic organ sustaining human life activities， and its dysfunction is closely associated with various liver diseases. In recent years， an increasing number of studies have shown that semaphorins （SEMA） play a significant role in pathological processes such as immune inflammatory response， tumor progression， and fibrosis in liver diseases by interacting with their receptors plexins and neuropilins. This article reviews the expression， functions， and molecular mechanisms of different SEMA in viral hepatitis， hepatocellular carcinoma， liver fibrosis， nonalcoholic fatty liver disease， and hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury， and it also explores the potential application value of SEMA in the diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases， in order to provide new ideas for precise diagnosis and targeted treatment of liver diseases.

ObjectiveTo describe the prevalence and dynamic pain characteristics of dysmenorrhea among female medical students through a menstrual diary-based observational study. MethodsFrom April to June 2021, female students were recruited from a medical college in Shanghai to complete menstrual diaries and record dysmenorrhea-related characteristics for two menstrual cycles. Dysmenorrhea severity was assessed using the visual analogue scale (VAS) (no pain: 0; mild: 1‒3; moderate: 4‒6; severe: 7‒10). A total of 323 diaries were collected, of which 303 were 93.81% valid (valid response rate: 93.81%), covering 596 complete menstrual cycles. Among them, 293 participants completed diaries for two cycles and were included in the analysis of persistent dysmenorrhea. Period, point, and persistent prevalence of dysmenorrhea were calculated using the number of participants as the denominator. Paired comparisons were performed using Cochran’s Q test and Bonferroni-adjusted McNemar tests. Using menstrual cycles with dysmenorrhea as the unit of analysis, the distributions of pain onset, peak timing, and pain duration across different severities were compared using the χ² tests or Fisher’s precision probability tests. ResultsAmong 303 female college students, 269 experienced dysmenorrhea during the first recorded cycle, and 288 had dysmenorrhea in any cycle. Among 596 complete menstrual cycles recorded, 527 were associated with dysmenorrhea (88.42%), and among 293 students who completed 2 complete recorded cycles, 239 had persistent dysmenorrhea. The period, point, and persistent prevalence of dysmenorrhea among female college students were 95.05% (288/303), 88.78% (269/303), and 81.57% (239/293), respectively (Q=61.61, P<0.001). The prevalence of persistently severe dysmenorrhea was 5.12% (15/293). Among the 527 dysmenorrheic cycles, there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of pain onset time (P=0.003) and pain duration (P<0.001) among different degrees of dysmenorrhea; mild dysmenorrhea mostly started on the first day of menstruation (52.83%), and moderate dysmenorrhea mostly started before menstruation (50.19%). Pain duration increased with severity; the proportions of cycles with pain lasting ≥4 days were 13.20%, 43.03%, and 51.56% for mild, moderate, and severe dysmenorrhea cycles, respectively. For all severity groups, mean pain scores peaked on the first day of menstruation and then decreased day by day to a stable level. ConclusionDysmenorrhea is highly prevalent among female medical students, and differences exist across pain severity levels in onset time, duration, and dynamic changes in pain. Identification and health guidance for those with persistently moderate-to-severe dysmenorrhea should be strengthened, and medical evaluation should be conducted when necessary.
