Aim To explore the mechanism of Jiawei Shaofu Zhuyu decoction in antagonizing endometriosis fibrosis by regulating mitophagy.Methods After the animal model was constructed,the syndrome was evalu-ated by general condition,organ water content and ther-mal imaging.The curative effect was evaluated by the weight of ectopic focus and the degree of adhesion.The pathological changes were compared using HE stai-ning,transmission electron microscopy,Masson and Sir-ius red staining.The expression of PINK1 and Parkin was detected by immunohistochemistry.The expression of mRNA and protein was determined by qPCR and Western blot,and the level of serum ROS was detected by ELISA.Results The autonomic activity of model mice was weakened,the water content of organs rose,and the temperature of limbs and lower abdomen was reduced by thermal imaging.HE staining showed obvi-ous hyperplasia of ectopic epithelium and glands.Transmission electron microscopy showed mitochondrial and endoplasmic reticulum structure damage,and nor-mal autophagy structure disappeared.Masson and Siri-us red staining showed increased collagen deposition;immunohistochemistry showed decreased expression of PINK1 and Parkin in ectopic foci.qPCR and Western blot showed that the expression of PINK1,Parkin,Bec-lin1,LC3 mRNA and protein in ectopic foci of model mice decreased,the expression of p62 mRNA and pro-tein increased,and serum ROS increased.The syn-drome performance of model mice was improved after the intervention of Jiawei Shaofu Zhuyu decoction;the inflammatory infiltration of ectopic foci was relieved,the morphology of mitochondria and endoplasmic retic-ulum was restored,and normal autophagy structure ap-peared.The degree of collagen deposition and fibrosis was reduced;the mRNA and protein expression of PINK1,Parkin,Beclin1 and LC3 increased.The ex-pression of p62 mRNA and protein decreased,and the level of ROS decreased.Conclusions Jiawei Shaofu Zhuyu decoction can improve the fibrosis of ectopic le-sions in mice with endometriosis of cold-dampness sta-sis syndrome,which may be related to the regulation of mitophagy.

A microchannel-based electrochemiluminescence(ECL)sensor was developed for detection of tetracycline(TC)utilizing luminol/H2O2 as ECL reporting system.The low excitation potential of luminol/H2O2 effectively mitigated the impact of clamping voltage,thereby enhancing the detection performance of the microchannel-based ECL sensor.The microchannel modified with TC aptamer selectively recognized and captured target TC.The positively charged TC reduced the surface charge density within the microchannel,thereby increasing the ionic current in the microchannel,leading to change of ECL signal of system.The experimental conditions such as electrolyte concentration,TC-aptamer concentration,and reaction time between TC and TC-aptamer were optimized.Under optimal conditions,the difference of ECL signal in the absence and presence of TC(?ECL)exhibited a good linear relationship with TC concentration in the range from 1.00 ng/mL to 200 ng/mL,with a detection limit as low as 0.69 ng/mL.The sensor had good selectivity and was successfully used in detection of TC in milk samples.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for meconium-stained amniotic fluid(MSAF)in preterm infants and the clinical outcome and prognosis of preterm infants.Methods Preterm infants with gestational age＜37 weeks delivered in Zhangjiajie People's Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were used as the study subjects,31 cases with MSAF were in MSAF group,and 31 cases of preterm infants hospitalized during the same period without MSAF were randomly paired in the ratio of 1∶1 to select with gestational age-body mass matching as non-MSAF group.Retrospective collection and analysis of pregnancy and perinatal conditions of mothers of preterm infants in two groups,comparing the differences of related factors between two groups of children;Logistic regression analysis of risk factors related to MSAF in preterm infants;comparing the complications and clinical outcomes of preterm infants in two groups.Results A total of 387 preterm infants with gestational age＜37 weeks were collected during the study period,including 31 preterm infants with comorbid MSAF,and the prevalence of MSAF in preterm infants was 8.0％.MSAF group had a higher incidence of advanced maternal age,premature rupture of membranes＞18 hours,antepartum fever,and cholestasis during pregnancy than non-MSAF group.Logistic regression analysis suggested that combined cholestasis during pregnancy and white blood cell count ≥ 30× 109/L within 6 hours after birth increased the incidence of MSAF in preterm infants.There was no statistically significant difference in the results of postnatal umbilical artery blood gas analysis between two groups of preterm infants.The proportion of leukocyte count ≥30×109/L,ultrasensitive C-reactive protein＞0.8 mg/L,and interleukin 6＞6 pg/L in MSAF group was higher than that of non-MSAF group in the 6 hours after birth.MSAF group had a higher incidence of intrauterine infectious pneumonia,feeding intolerance,and necrotizing small bowel colitis in neonates than non-MSAF group.Conclusion Advanced maternal age,intrauterine infections,and combined intrahepatic cholestasis during pregnancy may be the major risk factors for MSAF in preterm infants.MSAF preterm infants have a higher prevalence of intrauterine infectious pneumonitis,feeding intolerance,and necrotizing small bowel colitis in newborns,as well as longer hospital stays.

Aim To study the protective effect of the silibinin derivative Sil-1 on acute myocardial ischemia in SD rats and its mechanism of action.Methods Af-ter 18 hours of oxygen-glucose deprivation and treat-ment of H9c2 cells,the protective effect of Sil-1 on rat cardiomyocytes was examined.SD rats were treated 30 minutes before surgery,followed by 24 h ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery.The cardiopro-tective effects of Sil-1 and its mechanisms for improving myocardial ischemic injury were investigated using pro-teomics technology.Results In vitro,compared with the control group,the activity of H9c2 cells in the mod-el group showed reduced cell viability,increased dead cells,elevated ROS and higher levels of LDH and in-flammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-6 in the culture medium.Sil-1 could improve the above condi-tions to different degrees.In vivo,compared with the control group,rats in the model group showed signifi-cantly higher T waves on electrocardiogram,significant ischemic areas in the heart section,disorganized ar-rangement of cardiomyocytes,increased inflammatory factor infiltration and elevated CK,CK-MB,LDH and inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-1β.Besides,NF-κB phosphorylation levels in myocardial tissue in-creased.Sil-1 improved the above conditions to varying degrees.The results of proteomics showed that 90 pro-teins were found between the control vs model group and the Sil-1 vs model group,and KEGG enrichment a-nalysis showed that MAPK,chemokines,VEGF and other signaling pathways were abundant.Western blot results showed that Sil-1 blocked the phosphorylation of ERK,JNK and p38 MAPK.Conclusions Sil-1 inhib-its the MAPK pathway by blocking the phosphorylation of JNK,ERK,and p38 MAPK,and achieves a protec-tive effect on rats with acute myocardial infarction.

Objective:To evaluate the outcomes of stroke treatment in neurology and rehabilitation departments using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health′s Rehabilitation Set (ICF-RS).Method:The functional status of stroke survivors before and after treatment in the neurology and rehabilitation departments was evaluated using the ICF-RS (30 items). Each patient′s functioning was graded (normal, mild, moderate or severe dysfunction) by an experienced clinical evaluator and also by the intelligent evaluation model in the ICF-RS app. Medical expenditure data during hospitalization were extracted from the hospital′s case records. Rank sum tests compared the functional changes in a patient before and after their rehabilitation. Kappa coefficients were computed to evaluate the consistency of the functional grades assigned by the evaluators and the app.Results:Before the rehabilitation treatment, all 30 items of the ICF-RS were abnormal for all of the patients from the neurology and rehabilitation departments. After their rehabilitation treatment, 25 items had improved significantly for the neurology patients and 8 had improved significantly for those from the rehabilitation department. After their rehabilitation treatment, the average functional improvement among the neurology patients was 25%. For the rehabilitation patients it was 13%. The total expenditure for every 1% improvement in function was Y977 for the neurology patients (including Y143 for rehabilitation) and Y1, 481 for the rehabilitation patients (including Y862 of actual rehabilitation). The proportions of rehabilitation expenditure were thus 14% and 58% respectively. The kappa coefficients quantifying overall consistency were both greater than 0.8.Conclusion:The national standard ICF-RS can be used to evaluate functional changes, rehabilitation efficacy and the composition of stroke patients′ medical expenditures in the early stage of neurology and the recovery period in the rehabilitation department. The consistency of the functional level evaluations between the app and human evaluators is good.

Objective:To analyze the frailty status and its influencing factors among middle-aged and elderly individuals of Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted using a multi-stage random cluster sampling method in the settlements of the Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province from July to December in 2022. The study enrolled a total of 1 036 middle-aged and elderly individuals aged 45 years and above. Data on general characteristics (including chronic disease prevalence, sleep quality, smoking and alcohol consumption) and frailty status were collected in the subjects. A total of 1 050 questionnaires were distributed, 1 040 questionnaires returned with 1 036 valid responses (98.7%). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors influencing frailty status among different Zhiguo ethnic groups.Results:Among the 1 036 middle-aged and elderly individuals of Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province, there were 482 males and 554 females, with a frailty rate of 26.25% (272/1 036), the Bulang ethnic group had the highest frailty rate (35.56%) and the Jinuo ethnic group showed the lowest (18.49%). Being aged≥60 years ( OR=1.647, 95% CI: 1.177-2.303), having≥2 chronic diseases ( OR=2.183, 95% CI: 1.470-3.245), and suffering from sleep disorders ( OR=2.468, 95% CI: 1.786-3.411) were positively associated with frailty occurrence, whereas having high social support ( OR=0.614, 95% CI: 0.434-0.867) was inversely associated with the risk of frailty (all P<0.05). Ethnic subgroup analyses revealed that suffering from sleep disorders were a common influencing factor for frailty across all Zhiguo ethnic groups (all P<0.05). In the Jinuo ethnic group, having≥2 chronic diseases showed a positive association with frailty ( OR=3.387, 95% CI: 1.054-10.879) ( P<0.05). In the Bulang subgroup, having≥2 chronic diseases ( OR=3.951, 95% CI: 1.201-12.995) and aged ≥60 years ( OR=3.415, 95% CI: 1.347-8.657) were both positively associated with frailty, while having high social support ( OR=0.185, 95% CI: 0.065-0.527) was inversely associated with the risk of frailty (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The frailty rate in middle-aged and elderly individuals among Zhiguo ethnic groups in Yunnan Province is notably high, and sleep quality, social support, and chronic conditions are its main influencing factors.

[Purpose]To analyze the results of breast cancer screening among women aged 45～74 in Chongqing from 2012 to 2022 and compare the risk of breast cancer among women with differ-ent characteristics.[Methods]The Urban Cancer Early Diagnosis and Treatment Program was con-ducted in Chongqing from 2012 to 2022,female residents aged 45～74 years old participated in breast cancer screening.The participants who were assessed as at high risk of breast cancer in the preliminary screening were advised to receive ultrasonography and mammography examination in designated hospitals.The study population was followed up annually to obtain information on their health outcomes.The high risk rate of breast cancer,compliance of further examination,the inci-dence density and breast cancer risk were calculated.[Results]A total of 207 891 women com-pleted the questionnaires survey and risk assessment,and 35 947 were assessed as the individuals with high risk of breast cancer with a high risk rate of 17.29％.Among them 14 713 received the imaging screening with a compliance rate of 40.93％.After a mean follow-up of(5.43±3.01)years,847 cases of breast cancer were diagnosed with a cumulative incidence rate of 407.43/105,an in-cidence density of 75.03/105 person-years(95％CI:70.15/105～80.26/105 person-years).Cox pro-portional hazards regression showed that the risk of breast cancer was higher in obese women than that in normal weight women(HR=1.26,95％CI:1.00～1.59);the risk of breast cancer was signifi-cantly higher in those with family history of breast cancer than that in those without family history(HR=1.69,95％CI:1.36～2.09).Compared with non-high-risk groups of breast cancer,the risk of breast cancer was increased in high-risk individuals who were screened or not screened(HR=1.36,95％CI:1.06～1.73 and HR=1.26,95％CI:1.01～1.56).[Conclusion]The breast cancer screening program combining primary risk assessment with ultrasonography and mammography for the high-risk groups can improve the detection rate,and the compliance rate of imaging screening need to be improved in the future and make accurate screening for people with high risk of breast cancer.
