ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Tougu Xiaotong capsules （TGXTC） on the regulation of chondrocyte PANoptosis， delay of chondrocyte degeneration， and improvement of the symptoms in knee osteoarthritis （KOA）. MethodsIn vivo experiments： 50 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned into five groups （n=10 per group）： sham operation group， model group， low-dose TGXTC group （7.2 g·kg^-1）， high-dose TGXTC group （14.4 g·kg^-1）， and diclofenac sodium group （0.05 g·kg^-1）. Except for the sham group， KOA models were established in all other groups using the modified Hulth method. Following successful model induction， the TGXTC groups received daily oral gavage of 7.2 or 14.4 g·kg^-1 for 6 weeks， while the diclofenac sodium group received 0.05 g·kg^-1 solution daily over the same duration. Model evaluation was performed using Lequesne MG score； micro-computed tomography （micro-CT） was used to scan the knee， hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and safranin O-fast green staining were used to observe the morphology of cartilage， transmission electron microscopy （TEM） was used to determine ultrastructural changes of PANoptosis. Multiple immunofluorescence （IF） co-localization assays was performed to detect the co-localization of cleaved Caspase-3， receptor-interacting protein 3 （RlPK3）， and the N-terminal domain of gasdermin D （GSDMD-N） in cartilage tissue， while western blot was employed to detect the expression levels of cleaved Caspase-3， RIPK3， and GSDMD-N. In vitro experiments： The knee cartilages of 4-week-old SD rats were isolated， and a chondrocyte in vitro culture system was established through mechanical digestion with 0.2% type Ⅱ collagenase. Second-generation chondrocytes were divided into three groups： the control group， the model group （pretreated with 10 mg·L^-1 lipopolysaccharide （LPS） for 24 h followed by treatment with 1 μmol·L^-1 nigericin for 4 h）， and the TGXTC treatment group （pretreated with 10 mg·L^-1 LPS for 24 h， followed by exposure to 1 μmol·L^-1 nigericin for 4 h and subsequently treated with 100 mg·L^-1 TGXTC for an additional 24 h）. The levels of reactive oxygen species （ROS）， apoptosis， necroptosis， and pyroptosis of chondrocytes were evaluated via fluorescence microscopy following staining with ROS detection， AO/EB and YO-PRO-1/PI staining kits. Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to investigate the ultrastructural changes associated with PANoptosis in cartilage tissue of KOA mice. Inflammatory cytokine levels （IL-1β and IL-18） were measured using ELISA. Western blot was conducted to assess protein expressions related to PANoptosis， including cleaved Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-8， RIPK3， ZBP1， GSDMD-N， and NLRP3. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the Lequesne MG scores were significantly up-regulated（P<0.01） in the model group， and the pathological changes of cartilage were significantly， with joint spaces narrower， osteophyte formation increased， secere abrasion of cartilage surface. Ultrastructural analysis revealed pronounced chondrocyte apoptosis， necroptosis， and pyroptosis， along with markedly elevated expression of cleaved Caspase-3， RlPK3， and GSDMD-N in cartilage tissue （P<0.01）. In addition， The mean fluorescence intensities of ROS， orange-red fluorescence in AO/EB staining， green fluorescence and red fluorescence in YO-PRO-1/PI staining were increased of chondrocyte in the model group （P<0.01） . The levels of inflammatory factors IL-1β and IL-18 in the supernatant were increased （P<0.01）. The expression of PANoptosis related proteins （cleaved Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-8， RIPK3， ZBP1， GSDMD-N， and NLRP3） were also significantly upregulated（P<0.05）. Compared to the model group， the TGXTC group demonstrated a significant improvement in various parameters of mice. These included a reduction in the Lequesne MG score， an increase in joint space， a decrease in osteophyte formation， diminished cartilage damage， reduced release of ROS， and alleviation of apoptotic， necroptotic， and pyroptotic processes in chondrocytes. Additionally， mitochondrial swelling and endoplasmic reticulum dilation were also mitigated. The levels of ROS as well as IL-1β and IL-18 were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. Furthermore， the expression levels of proteins associated with PANoptosis in cartilage tissue showed marked reductions （P<0.05）. Similar results were observed in chondrocytes： cleaved Caspase-3， cleaved Caspase-8， RIPK3， ZBP1， GSDMD-N， and NLRP3 exhibited significant decreases as well （P<0.05）. ConclusionTGXTC may mitigate chondrocytes degeneration and alleviate KOA symptoms by reducing oxidative stress and suppressing the activation of PANoptosis pathways.

ObjectiveBased on the regulation of macrophage M2 polarization， this study aims to explore the molecular mechanism and action targets of the Qijia Rougan prescription and its key effector ingredients in anti-fibrosis， thereby providing a basis and reference for the development of new drugs for hepatic fibrosis. MethodsA rat model of hepatic fibrosis was established by subcutaneous injection of 40%CCl₄， followed by oral administration of Qijia Rougan granules. The volume of collagen fibers was detected using Masson staining， the fibrosis markers Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA were detected using immunohistochemistry， the proportion of M2 macrophages was detected by flow cytometry. The expression levels of M2 macrophage phenotype markers CD163 and CD206 were detected using immunofluorescence double staining. Western blot was used to detect the levels of the transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， platelet derived growth factor subunit B （PDGFB）， interleukin-10 （IL-10）， phosphorylated Janus kinase 1 （p-JAK1）， and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 （p-STAT6）. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect the relative expression levels of JAK1， STAT6， Arginase 1（Arg1）， and Fizz1. Based on the theory of serum pharmacology， liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and WENN analysis were used to obtain the active ingredients of Qijia Rougan prescription. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation were performed to analyze the effector ingredients and their targets. The identified effector ingredients were interfered with IL-4-induced M2 polarization of RAW264.7 macrophage in vitro to validate the targets. ResultsQijia Rougan prescription significantly reduced the content of fibrosis markers α-SMA and Collagen Ⅰ， as well as collagen fiber content （P<0.05）. It decreased the proportion of M2 macrophages and the levels of related cytokines IL-10， TGF-β and PDGFB， and up-regulated the levels of p-JAK1 and p-STAT6 （P<0.05）. A total of 1 214 compounds were identified from Qijia Rougan prescription， medicated serum and blank serum， and 29 ingredients were finalized by Venn analysis， including 15 blood-entry prototypes and 14 drug metabolites. Molecular docking showed that enoxolone and berberine bound more strongly to JAK1， with binding free energies of -9.6 kcal·mol^-1（1 cal≈4.184 J） and -9.1 kcal·mol^-1， respectively. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that JAK1-enoxolone and JAK1-berberine exhibited stable simulation trajectories within 100 ns， with essentially identical conformations and high protein overlap before and after simulation. Their binding free energies were -25.18 5.0.81 kcal·mol^-1 and -27.39 7.0.85 kcal·mol^-1， respectively. The number of hydrogen bonds formed between JAK1 and enoxolone ranges from 0 to 5， and most of the time can be maintained at 2-3. In vitro intervention with enoxolone or berberine significantly reduced p-JAK1 and p-STAT6 levels （P<0.05）. ConclusionQijia Rougan prescription inhibits M2 macrophage polarization in hepatic fibrosis. Enoxolone and berberine are the key effector ingredients of Qijia Rougan prescription to inhibit macrophage M2 polarization through targeting JAK1 and modulating the JAK1/STAT6 signaling pathway， thereby ameliorating hepatic fibrosis. This study provides a basis for prescription optimization， clinical application and new drug development， as well as a reference for monolithic anti-hepatic fibrosis research.

Objective:To discuss the correlation of pathologic findings after radical prostatectomy and preoperative 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT parameters with the prognosis of patients with prostate cancer. Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 48 patients with prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital between January 2019 and August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging before surgery. The age, the preoperative serum total prostate-specific antigen (tPSA), prostate-specific antigen density (PSAD), prostate volume, tumor diameter, TNM staging, the pathologic data after radical prostatectomy [International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade, resection margin status, nerve invasion], and preoperative maximum standard uptake value (SUV max) were collected. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the efficacy of PET/CT parameter SUV max in predicting tumor recurrence after prostate cancer surgery. The recurrence-free survival (RFS) was analyzed by using the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test was performed. Cox proportional risk model was used to analyze the factors influencing RFS after radical prostatectomy. Results:All 48 patients were acinar adenocarcinoma. The median level of the patients' serum tPSA was 19.16 (10.50, 30.99) ng/ml; the median prostate volume was 36.20 (31.83, 45.48) ml; the median tumor diameter was 2.80 (1.60, 4.00) cm; the median PSAD was 0.48 (0.31,1.02) ng·ml -1·cm -3. The primary SUV max of prostate cancer was 13.61 (8.10, 20.20) . Of the 48 patients, 1 case died of heart disease and 1 case died of COVID-19 within 3 to 6 months after surgery, and the rest 46 patients were analyzed for prognosis. Among 46 cases, 26 were in the ISUP low-grade group and 20 were in the high-grade group; 17 were positive and 29 were negative for nerve invasion; 7 were positive and 39 were negative for margin status. The median follow-up time was 18.5 (8-64) months. There were 30 recurrence-free patients and 16 recurrent patients by the follow-up in April 2024. The median RFS time was 15 months; and there were statistically significant differences in RSF among the ISUP high-grade and low-grade groups, preoperative SUV max ≥ 16.77 and < 16.77 groups, positive and negative resection margin groups (all P < 0.01). SUV max was positively correlated with ISUP pathological grade and tPSA level ( r value was 0.634, 0.584, respectively; both P < 0.01). The differences in preoperative serum tPSA level, PSAD, tumor diameter, and SUV max were statistically significant between the ISUP low-grade group and the high-grade group (all P < 0.01); the differences in preoperative serum tPSA, PSAD, and tumor diameter were statistically significant between the nerve invasion positive group and nerve invasion negative group (all P < 0.01); the differences in preoperative serum tPSA, PSAD, tumor diameter, and SUV max between patients with positive resection margins or not were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the tumor resection margin status (negativity vs. positivity: HR = 7.82,95% CI: 1.97-31.07, P < 0.01), ISUP pathological grade (low grade vs. high grade: HR = 4.34,95% CI:1.21-15.62, P < 0.05), and the preoperative SUV max (<16.77 vs. ≥ 16.77: HR = 4.18, 95% CI:1.36-12.85 , P < 0.05) were independent influencing factors for RFS in patients with prostate cancer after radical prostatectomy. Conclusions:Pathological grading after radical prostatectomy and the preoperative 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT parameters are associated with the prognosis of patients with prostate cancer.

Objective To simulate modern social stress using a pre-pregnancy chronic mild stress(CMS)model and to explore the mechanisms of emotional,behavioral,and neurodevelopmental changes in male offspring of pre-pregnancy liver qi stagnation female mice through corticosterone(CORT)-brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK)1/2 signaling cascade-mediated hippocampal injury.This study aimed to elucidate the impact of negative life events on offspring and the interventional mechanism of Shuyu Capsules.Methods CMS stress was used to induce pre-pregnancy depression in female rats(liver qi stagnation state),followed by intervention with Shuyu and fluoxetine capsules.After screening,male rats were mated and 12 male offspring from each group were selected for behavioral testing and detection of serum CORT levels by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.BDNF,ERK1/2,phospho(p)-ERK1/2,cAMP-response element binding protein(CREB),and p-CREB protein levels in the hippocampus were detected by Western Blot,and BDNF,ERK1,ERK2,and CREB mRNA levels in the hippocampus were detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR),to verify the effects of pre-pregnancy CMS on the BDNF-ERK1/2-CREB signaling pathway and to investigate the key micro-mechanisms of Shuyu Capsules on emotional and learning memory-related behaviors of male offspring of females with pre-pregnancy liver qi stagnation syndrome.Results The distance,number of entries,and duration of stay in the central area in open-field experiments were significantly reduced in offspring in the model group(all P＜0.05).The escape latency during the exploration period of the water-maze experiment was significantly prolonged(P＜0.05)and the swimming distance,duration of the target quadrant,and number of platform crossings were significantly reduced(P＜0.05,P＜0.05,P＜0.01),the suspension time and frequency in the forced-swimming experiment were increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and the incubation period was shortened(P＜0.05)in offspring in the model group.Prophylactic treatment with Shuyu Capsules and fluoxetine improved the depression-like behavior and cognitive impairment in the offspring in the model group.Biochemical tests showed that CORT levels were increased in the CMS model group(P＜0.05),BDNF,p-ERK1/2,and p-CREB protein levels in the hippocampus were decreased(all P＜0.05),and BDNF,ERK1,ERK2,and CREB mRNA levels were significantly reduced(P＜0.01,P＜0.05,P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Treatment with Shuyu Capsules and fluoxetine increased the CORT content and BDNF,ERK1/2,and CREB protein and mRNA levels in male offspring to varying degrees.Conclusions High levels of CORT in offspring act selectively on the hippocampus,exerting adverse effects on the emotional and learning memory functions of rats by downregulating the BDNF-ERK1/2 signaling cascade.The Chinese medicine Shuyu Capsules can reduce the impact of an adverse intrauterine environment on offspring development by correcting abnormal levels and pathways of glucocorticoids.

This review summarizes the applications and advancements of artificial intelligence(AI)in the analysis of retinal vascular parameters. Retinal vascular parameters, including vessel diameter, fractal dimension, vascular tortuosity, branching angles, and vessel density, are important indicators for assessing changes in the retinal vascular network structure. These parameters are not only related to various ophthalmic diseases but also reflect the conditions of systemic diseases such as diabetes and Alzheimer's disease. This article provides a detailed discussion on the advantages of AI technology in the automated identification and quantification of retinal vascular parameters, particularly in improving measurement efficiency and accuracy, and enabling the early detection and monitoring of various diseases. Additionally, the challenges faced by AI in the analysis of retinal vascular parameters were discussed, such as data standardization and insufficient sample diversity, and proposes directions for future research. By thoroughly analyzing the application of AI in retinal vascular parameter analysis, this article aims to offer new perspectives and methods for clinical diagnosis and early intervention of diseases, holding significant clinical significance and application prospects.

Polygonatum sibiricum， as a traditional Chinese medicine with both medicinal and edible properties， has attracted considerable attention due to its functions of nourishing Yin and moistening the lungs， tonifying the spleen and benefiting Qi， and nourishing the kidneys and filling essence. Recent studies have demonstrated that Polygonatum sibiricum plays a significant role in regulating the immune system， effectively enhancing and improving the morphology and function of immune organs， stimulating the proliferation and activation of immune cells， and regulating the secretion and release of immune factors， thereby enhancing the immune function of the body and improving various immune-related diseases. Although a large number of studies have explored the pharmacological effects and mechanisms of P. sibiricum， there has been no systematic review and summary of its immune regulatory activity and mechanisms. Therefore， this article comprehensively reviews the research achievements of P. sibiricum polysaccharides and saponins in the field of immune regulation in recent years， and further sorts out the immune regulatory mechanisms of P. sibiricum in multiple aspects： including increasing the organ index of the spleen and thymus， increasing the number and activity of tumor-suppressive bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells， improving intestinal flora imbalance， regulating the quantity and proportion of T lymphocyte subsets， increasing the level of immunoglobulin， promoting the proliferation of macrophages， enhancing the activity of natural killer cells， increasing the number of white blood cells， and promoting the maturation of dendritic cells， providing a solid theoretical basis and scientific evidence for the research and application of P. sibiricum， and promoting its development and application in traditional Chinese medicine immune enhancers and various functional products.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of cementless long-stem total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of end-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on 18 patients with end-stage ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures who were admitted to the 940th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the PLA from January 2016 to June 2023, including 8 males (8 hips) and 10 females (10 hips), aged 56-79 years [(69.4±7.0)years]. All the patients had Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) stage IV ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fracture (Seinsheimer types II-IV). Parameters recorded included operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay, time to partial weight-bearing, and time to full weight-bearing. Vertical offset and leg length discrepancy (LLD) were compared preoperatively and at 1 week postoperatively. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score, hip range of motion (flexion, abduction), and Harris hip score (HHS) were compared preoperatively, at 1 week, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. Perioperative complications were observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-70 months [(36.4±16.2)months]. Operation duration was (116.4±18.1)minutes. Intraoperative blood loss was (334.4±121.3)ml. The length of hospital stay was 13.0(10.0, 16.3)days. The time to partial weight-bearing was 5.0(3.0, 7.0)days, with time to full weight-bearing for 5.0(4.0, 5.3)weeks. At 1 week postoperatively, the vertical offset [(58.9±4.1)mm] was significantly increased compared to that preoperatively [(49.3±3.3)mm] ( P<0.01), while the LLD [(4.2±3.1)mm] was significantly reduced compared to that preoperatively [(16.2±5.8)mm] ( P<0.01). At 1 week, 3 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores [3.0(2.0, 3.3)points, 2.0(1.0, 2.0)points, and 1.0(0.0, 2.0)points] were significantly lower than that preoperatively [6.0(5.0, 6.3)points], and decreased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01); the hip flexion angles [(50.4±6.5)°, (94.3±6.4)°, and (104.7±7.4)°] and hip abduction angles [(21.5±4.4)°, (34.9±4.5)°, and (42.9±4.9)°] were lower than those preoperatively [(32.9±6.4)° and (13.4±4.9)°], and decreased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01); the HHS [(58.1±4.9)points, (83.1±2.9)points, and (90.7±2.6)points] were higher than that preoperatively [(33.4±4.4)points], and increased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, 5 patients were rated as excellent, 11 as good, and 2 as fair according to the HHS criteria, with an overall excellent and good rate of 89%. No perioperative complications were observed, including neurovascular injury, secondary fracture, or infection. One patient developed partial deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity (the popliteal vein) at 2 weeks after surgery, which recovered completely following treatment with a standard oral administration of rivaroxaban, etc. At the last follow-up, no evidence of malunion, prosthesis loosening, subsidence, or dislocation was observed. Conclusion:The use of cementless long-stem THA in the treatment of end-stage ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures has advantages of small trauma, early weight-bearing, early pain relief, improved joint motion and function, and few complications.
