ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of hypoxia-treated mesenchymal stem cell （MSCs） exosomes （Exo） and their loading with curcumin on microglial inflammatory responses， and to explore the enhancing effect of hypoxia treatment on the function of MSCs Exo. MethodsThe supernatants of human umbilical cord （hUC）-MSCs cultured under normal and hypoxic conditions were collected， and Exo were isolated using ultracentrifugation. After identification by transmission electron microscopy and Western blot， curcumin was loaded using the co-incubation method. The lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced microglial inflammation model was treated with dimethyl sulfoxide （DMSO）， curcumin， normoxia Exo， hypoxia Exo， normoxic Exo loaded with curcumin， and hypoxic Exo loaded with curcumin， respectively. The expression of the M1-type marker inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） in BV2 cells was detected by immunofluorescence （IF）. Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） were used to measure the expression and secretion levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and IL-6 in the cells and their culture supernatants. ResultsNormoxia Exo， hypoxia Exo， normoxic Exo loaded with curcumin， and hypoxic Exo loaded with curcumin exhibited a "saucer-like" shape with a diameter ranging from 30~150 nm， and the expression of exosomal markers CD9， CD81， and TSG101 were positive. After treating the BV2 cell inflammation model， IF results showed that， compared with the normoxia Exo group， treatment with hypoxic Exo significantly reduced the expression of iNOS. Moreover， when compared with the curcumin group and the normoxic Exo loaded with curcumin group， the expression level of iNOS significantly decreased after treatment with hypoxic Exo loaded with curcumin. The results of Western blot and ELISA indicated that， in comparison with the normoxia Exo group， treatment with hypoxic Exo significantly reduced the expression and secretion of the inflammatory cytokines TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6. Additionally， when compared with the curcumin group and the normoxic Exo loaded with curcumin group， both the expression and secretion of TNF-α， IL-1β， and IL-6 significantly decreased after treatment with hypoxic Exo loaded with curcumin. ConclusionHypoxia preconditioning can enhance the ability of hUC-MSCs-Exo in the inhibition of microglial polarization and inflammatory factors’ secretion. Additionally， using Hypoxia-MSCs-Exo as a drug-delivery carrier of curcumin can improve its solubility and stability， facilitating its absorption by cells and exerting the therapeutic effect of combination therapy.

Objective: To analyze the causes of abnormal blood agglutination caused by high-titer cold antibodies in blood donors from a serological perspective. Methods: The donor's blood type was identified using the tube method. Direct antiglobulin test (DAT), indirect antiglobulin test (IAT), and antibody titer detection were performed on the samples. Results: The blood type of the donor was type B, and the DAT was negative. No complement components were detected on the surface of the donor's red blood cells. The supernatant of the suspended red blood cells was clear without abnormal coloration, and the agglutinated clumps were intact and difficult to dissociate. The antibody was identified as an IgM-type anti-IH cold agglutinin. At 4℃, this antibody reacted with autologous red blood cells, adult group B red blood cells, adult group O red blood cells, cord blood group B red blood cells and cord blood group O red blood cells, with a stronger reaction intensity observed with group O cells than with B cells. The titers were 512, 128, 256, 32 and 128, respectively. Conclusion: High-titer anti-IH can cause abnormal agglutination of blood at low temperatures. During blood distribution and clinical use, the appearance of blood products shall be strictly inspected to prevent the release of non-conforming blood products.

Objective To explore the application effect of bedside critical ultrasound in volume management of acute kidney injury(AKI)donors.Methods Clinical data of 56 AKI donors and 106 recipients from the Transplantation Center of People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from October 1,2020 to May 31,2022 were collected.They were divided into the critical ultrasound group(34 donors,66 recipients)and the traditional central venous pressure(CVP)group(22 donors,40 recipients)according to the volume management methods.The AKI stage and recovery time,renal function indicators(serum creatinine(Scr),cystatin C,estimated glomerular filtration rate),donor Remuzzi score,cold ischemia time,biventricular inotrope usage rate and time,delayed graft function(DGF)incidence and recovery time,and renal function indicators at 6 and 12 months after surgery were compared and analyzed between the two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences in gender,age,body weight,AKI stage,pre-acquisition renal function indicators,biventricular inotrope usage rate,renal function indicators at 6 and 12 months after surgery,DGF recovery time,donor Remuzzi score and cold ischemia time of the donors and recipients between two groups(all P>0.05).The AKI recovery time,continuous renal replacement therapy rate and biventricular inotrope usage time of donors in the critical ultrasound group were shorter or lower than those in the traditional CVP group(all P<0.05).The incidence of DGF in recipients of the critical ultrasound group was lower than that of the traditional CVP group(P<0.05).Subgroup analysis showed that there was no statistically significant difference in Scr at 6 and 12 months after surgery in recipients of the critical ultrasound group(P>0.05),while the Scr at 12 months after surgery was higher than that at 6 months in recipients of the traditional CVP group(P<0.05).Conclusions AKI kidneys may be used for kidney transplantation after active maintenance.Bedside critical ultrasound has unique advantages in volume management of AKI donors and may improve the function of AKI kidneys to a certain extent.

Objective To explore differentially expressed proteins in the serum exosomes of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients and healthy controls by using the proteomics method,and provide new biomarker for the diagnosis and treatment of AML.Methods A total of 76 AML patients diagnosed and treated in the First People's Hospital of Honghe State from November 2022 to June 2024 were selected as the experimental group,and 60 healthy physical examination participants were selected as the control group.Tandem Mass Tag(TMT)labeled proteomics was used to identify the differences in protein expression in serum exosomes between the experimental and control groups,and the identified differentially expressed proteins were subjected to bioinformatics analysis.Western-Blot was used to verify the differentially expressed proteins.Results Comparedwith healthy controls,146 aberrantly expressed proteinswere detected in serum exosomes of AML patients,of which 89 were up-regulated and 57 were down-regulated.Among them,Alpha-1-antichymotrypsin(α1-ACT),Angiogenin(ANG),Vitronectin(VIT),Clusterin(Clu),Fibronectin(FN),Keratin type I cytoskeletal-18(KRT18),and actinin alpha4(ACTN4)showed changed significantly.Gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis indicated that differentially expresseproteins were involved in biological processes such as neutrophil immunity,neutrophil degranulation,neutrophil activation immune response,and protein activation cascade,significantly enriched in 25 biological pathways including complement and coagulation cascades,extracellular matrix(ECM)-receptor interaction,and hypoxia-inducible factor-1(HIF-1)signaling pathways.Western-blot validation results showed that compared with the control group,the expression levels of ANG,Clu and FN in the serum exosomes of AML patients were significantly increased,while the expression level of ACTN4 was significantly decreased,with statistically significant differences(t=-11.854～18.569,all P<0.05).The expression levels of ANG and FN were correlated with white blood cell count(F=8.888,7.818,all P<0.05)and cytogenetics(F=8.619,7.983,P<0.05).The expression level of Clu protein was correlated with white blood cell count(F=2.571,P<0.05),but not significantly associated with cytogenetics(F=1.886,P>0.05).ANG,FN and Clu showed no significant correlation with FAB classification(F=0.175,0.434,0.042,all P>0.05).Conclusion The expression of exosomal proteins in the serum of AML patients compared to healthy individuals are significant differences,which may serve as serological markers for the diagnosis and treatment of AML.

Objective To explore the biological functions and mechanisms of PIWI-interacting RNA(piRNA)in cervical cancer(CC).Methods RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression level of piRNA-2732 in CC tissue,CaSki cells and End1/E6E7 cells.EpiQuik m6A RNA methylation quantification kit was used to detect the methylation level of m6A RNA in CaSki cells.The expression levels of methyltransferases(METTL3,METTL14 and WTAP)and demethylases(FTO,ALKBH5)mRNA in CaSki cells were detected by RT-qPCR.After culturing CaSki cells to logarithmic growth stage,they were divided into six groups:piRNA-2732 mimic negative control group(mi-NC group),piRNA-2732 mimic group(mi-2732 group),piRNA-2732 inhibitor negative control group(in-NC group),piRNA-2732 inhibitor group(in-2732 group),piRNA-2732 mimic+METTL3 knockdown control group(mi-2732+si-NC group),and piRNA-2732 mimic+METTL3 knockdown group(mi-2732+si-METTL3 group).The viability of CaSki cells was detected by CCK8 assay.Colony formation assay was used to detect the proliferation ability of CaSki cells.Transwell experiment was used to detect the migration and invasion ability of CaSki cells.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression of methyltransferase like protein 3(METTL3).Transfected METTL3 wild-type(METTL3-WT)and METTL3 mutant(METTL3-MUT)in the mi-NC group,mi-2732 group,in-NC group,and in-2732 group respectively,and detected the effect of piRNA-2732 on METTL3 through dual luciferase reporter gene assay.Results Compared with the adjacent tissues,the expression of piRNA-2732(3.84±1.08 vs 1.32±0.53)was significantly higher in the cancer tissues of CC patients,and the difference was statistically significant(t=5.115,P<0.001).Compared with end1/E6E7 cells,the expression of piRNA-2732(1.00±0.13 vs 1.67±0.16)in CaSki cells was significantly higher,and the difference was statistically significant(t=5.632,P<0.01).Compared with mi-NC group,mi-2732 group promoted the viability,proliferation,migration and invasion of CaSki cells,and the differences were statistically significant(t=4.410～11.040,all P<0.01).Compared with mi-NC group,mi-2732 group increased m6A RNA methylation level and METTL3 mRNA and protein,the differences were statistically significant(t=6.176,9.211,12.550,all P<0.05).The results of dual luciferase reporter gene testing showed that compared with the mi-NC+METTL3-WT group,the relative luciferase activity of mi-2732+METTL3-WT group was significantly increased(t=11.850).Compared with mi-2732+METTL3-WT group,the relative luciferase activity of mi-2732+METTL3-MUT group was significantly lower(t=12.740),and the difference was statistically significant(all P<0.000 1).Compared with in NC+METTL3-WT group,the relative luciferase activity of in-2732+METTL3-WT group was significantly lower(t=7.828),compared with in-2732+METTL3-WT group,the relative luciferase activity of CaSki cells in in-2732+METTL3-MUT group was significantly increased(t=8.146),and the difference was statistically significant(all P<0.001).Compared with mi-2732+si-NC group,the expression level of m6A in mi-2732+si-METTL3 group was significantly lower,and the difference was statistically significant(t=7.630,P<0.01).Compared with mi-2732+si-NC group,the proliferation ability,colony number,cell migration and invasion ability of CaSki cells in mi-2732+si-METTL3 group were significantly decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=3.695～4.891,all P<0.001).Conclusion piRNA-2732 is overexpressed in CC tissues and cells,and piRNA-2732 promotes tumor development in CC through METTL3 mediated m6A methylation.

Objective To evaluate answers to typical clinical questions related to neuro-ophthalmology generated by Artificial Intelligence(AI)Large Language Models(LLM)and to explore the performance of neuro-ophthalmology-related questions on LLM in a multidimensional manner using objective and expert assessment.Methods Multicenter,random-ized,cross-sectional pilot study.Thirty typical questions related to neuro-ophthalmology were selected based on four per-spectives:definition,etiology,clinical manifestations and signs,and treatment and prognosis,and were analyzed quantita-tively using Deepseek,Wenxin Yiyin 4.0,Doubao,and Kimi 1.5,which are four open-source LLMs in China,and quantita-tively analyzed with objective assessment;and quantitatively rated by three ophthalmologists using expert assessment for 120 answer texts.Three ophthalmology experts quantitatively scored the 120 answer texts.Three ophthalmologists quantita-tively scored the 120 answer texts.Level 3,5,and 4 Likert scales were developed according to the completeness,accura-cy,professionalism,relevance,and criticality of the question texts,respectively.The best-performing LLM was selected,and its performance was observed across the four types of questions.Additionally,three other experts assessed whether the best-performing one could be evaluated as a substitute for real-world doctor-patient communication.Results In the objective Chinese text reading difficulty analysis,the differences in total word count among the four LLMs were statistically significant(all P＜0.001).Of the four LLMs,Kimi 1.5 performed the best,with frequencies of 61％,29％,and 41％for the highest scores in completeness(3),accuracy and professionalism(5),and relevance and usefulness(4),respective-ly.Kimi 1.5 performed more consistently on the questions on the four areas of neuro-ophthalmologic disorders:definition,etiology,clinical manifestations and signs,treatment,and prognosis,with no between-group differences(P＞0.05).Con-clusion Chinese language LLMs have great potential in the clinical application of neuro-ophthalmology.Kimi 1.5 outper-forms other LLMs in terms of completeness,accuracy,professionalism,relevance,and usefulness,but it still cannot re-place real-world doctor-patient communication.There is a need to explore new diagnostic and therapeutic model of AI+physician in the future.

Myasthenia gravis(MG)is an autoimmune disease characterized primarily by skeletal muscle weakness and,in severe cases,respiratory involvement.Western medical treatment predominantly relies on immunosuppressants,but long-term administration often leads to notable side effects.In contrast,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)offers the advantage of multi-target interventions.However,the pathogenesis of MG has not been fully elucidated,and the establishment of animal models that accurately reflect the clinical characteristics of both Chinese and Western medicine is essential for mechanism research and new drug development.This paper systematically reviews the etiology and pathogenesis,diagnostic criteria,and progress of animal model research for MG from both Chinese and Western medicine perspectives.In Western medicine,the pathogenesis of MG is closely related to genetic susceptibility,environmental factors,and autoantibody-mediated postsynaptic membrane damage.In TCM,MG is classified under the category of"flaccidity syndrome",attributed to congenital deficiencies and acquired malnourishment.Western diagnostic criteria involve a combination of clinical symptoms,fatigue testing,serum antibody assays,and electrophysiological evaluation.In contrast,TCM diagnosis emphasizes the integration of primary and secondary symptoms with tongue and pulse pattern differentiation.Currently available animal models mainly include experimental autoimmune myasthenia gravis(EAMG)and passive transfer myasthenia gravis(PTMG).The Toredo acetylcholine receptor(AChR)induced EAMG model aligns well with Western diagnostic criteria,but poorly matches secondary symptoms in TCM.The synthetic AChR peptide model is widely used,but shows low conformity with TCM syndromes.Models induced by muscle-specific tyrosine kinase(MuSK),low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 4(LRP4),and transgenic models demonstrate high innovation but exhibit low clinical conformity.Evaluation of these models requires integration of behavioral,electrophysiological,and immunological indicators.However,a systematic framework for modelling TCM syndromes is still lacking.Future research should integrate TCM-based etiological modelling methods with the Western pathological mechanisms to construct disease-syndrome combination models.Additionally,it is crucial to establish a TCM syndrome evaluation system based on"validation by prescription",as well as to improve the scientific rigor and practicality of animal models by the incorporation of emerging technologies.This review provides a theoretical foundation for optimizing MG animal model design,advancing the research on the combination of Chinese and Western medicine,and supporting efficacy assessment and mechanism exploration of Chinese herbal prescriptions.

Missed abortion is a specific type of spontaneous abortion that typically occurs in early pregnancy. Common causes include embryonic chromosomal abnormalities, maternal factors, immune dysfunction, changes in the local microenvironment, abnormal folate metabolism, endocrine abnormalities, male factors, and environmental influences. Currently, the incidence of missed abortion is rising, and the causes are complex, significantly affecting the physical and mental health of women. This review summarizes the potential causes of missed abortion and provides a valuable basis for prevention, investigation of causes, and early intervention for at-risk populations.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of combining Omalizumab with compound glycyrrhetinic acid glycoside in the management of chronic urticaria that exhibits poor response to antihistamine therapy.Methods 92 patients with chronic urticaria who were treated with H1 antihistamines and still had symp-toms from February 2022 to February 2024 in the hospital were selected as the study subjects.The study partici-pants were randomly assigned to either the observation group,consisting of 46 cases,or the control group,also comprising 46 cases,using a random number table method.The control group received subcutaneous injection of omalizumab for treatment.The observation group was treated with oral compound glycyrrhizin tablets on the basis of the control group.After 24 weeks of treatment,compare the efficacy,adverse reactions,Urticaria Activity Score over 7 days(UAS7),Dermatology Life Quality Index(DLQI),Immunoglobulin(Ig)E,and High Sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs CRP)between the two groups,and record the recurrence rate.Results After treatment,the UAS7,DLQI,IgE and hs-CRP of both groups of patients decreased compared to before treatment,and the observation group demonstrated lower results compared to the control group(P<0.05).After treatment,the overall effectiveness rate in the observation group exceeded that of the control group(P<0.05),and the recurrence rate was lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups of drugs(P>0.05).Conclusion The combination therapy of omali-zumab and compound glycyrrhetinic acid glycoside in the treatment of chronic urticaria patients with low response to antihistamines helps reduce IgE expression,improve treatment effectiveness,lower recurrence rates,and does not increase adverse drug reactions.

Objective:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of nicotinamide riboside(NR)on experimental autoimmune en-cephalomyelitis(EAE)mice.Methods:C57BL/6 female mice were induced by myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein(MOG35-55)to pro-duce EAE model and were randomly divided into EAE group and NR group.From day 3 to day 27 after immunization,each mouse in EAE group was given normal saline(200 μl/d)and each mouse in NR group was given NR(500 mg/kg,200 μl/d)by intragastric administration.Clinical score and body weight of mice in EAE group and NR group were recorded every day.On the 28th day after immunization,the spinal cord protein of mice in each group was extracted and the frozen sections of spinal cord of mice in each group were prepared.LFB staining was used to detect demyelination,immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of MAP-2 and the number of positive cells of NeuN,BDNF,GDNF,NGF and NT-3,and Western blot was used to detect the expressions of BDNF,GDNF,NGF and NT-3 of spinal cord.Results:Compared with EAE group,NR significantly delayed the onset time of EAE mice(P<0.05),decreased clinical score(P<0.05),reduced weight loss,alleviated spinal cord demyelination(P<0.05),increased the expression of MAP-2(P<0.01)and the number of NeuN positive cells(P<0.01),and up-regulated the expressions of BDNF,GDNF,NGF and NT-3(P<0.05).Conclusion:NR shows a good neuroprotective effect on EAE mice.The mechanism may be related to NR significantly increasing the expression of spinal neurotrophic factors,improving the microenvironment of the central nervous sys-tem,nourishing nerves,promoting nerve repair and nerve growth,etc.
