ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Sini San (SNS) treats liver fibrosis through regulating the polarization of intrahepatic Kupffer cells. MethodsSixty SPF-grade male Balb/c mice were randomized into blank control, model, silymarin (0.2 g·kg-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (2.93, 5.85, 11.70 g·kg-1, respectively) SNS groups. A mouse model of liver fibrosis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of CCl4. After 5 weeks of administration, the body mass, liver pathological changes [Hematoxylin and Eosin (HE), Masson, and Sirius red staining], serum biochemical indicators [alkaline phosphatase (ALP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), and alanine aminotransferase (ALT)], liver fibrosis markers [procollagen type Ⅲ (PCⅢ), laminin (LN), and hyaluronic acid (HA)], inflammatory cytokines [interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and interleukin-10 (IL-10)], and fibrosis-related proteins [α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), collagen type Ⅰ (Col Ⅰ), and collagen type Ⅲ (Col Ⅲ)] were assessed. A co-culture system of THP-1 cells (M1 macrophages) and human hepatic stellate cells (LX-2) was established. The cell experiment was designed with blank control (LX-2 alone), model (LX-2 + M1 macrophages), and low-, medium-, and high-dose SNS (co-culture with 5%, 10%, or 20% SNS-containing serum, respectively) groups. Cell viability, inflammatory cytokines, and macrophage phenotype were examined. Human primary hepatic Kupffer cells were allocated into blank control, M1 (LPS 100 μg·L-1+IFN-γ 20 μg·L-1), M2 (IL-4 20 μg·L-1+IL-13 20 μg·L-1), M1+M2, M1+SNS (supplemented with 10% SNS-containing serum for 2 h after culture under M1 conditions for 24 h), M2+SNS (supplemented with 10% SNS-containing serum for 2 h after culture under M2 conditions for 24 h), and M1+M2+SNS groups (supplemented with 10% SNS-containing serum for 2 h after culture under M1+M2 conditions for 24 h), and the expression of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) p65 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) at protein and mRNA levels was determined. ResultsCompared with the blank group, the model group exhibited increased serum levels of ALT, AST, ALP, PCⅢ, LN, HA, IL-6, and TNF-α, upregulated protein and mRNA levels of α-SMA, Col Ⅰ, and Col Ⅲ in the liver tissue (P<0.05, P<0.01), and decreased IL-10 level and STAT3 mRNA level (P<0.05, P<0.01), accompanied by marked collagen deposition and inflammatory infiltration in the liver. Compared with the model group, all doses of Sini San reversed these alterations (P<0.05, P<0.01), with the high-dose group showing the most pronounced effects. Cell experiments demonstrated that, compared with the blank control group, the model group had elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) and upregulated protein and mRNA levels of M1 markers [cluster of differentiation 86 (CD86, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1)] (P<0.01), along with declined level of IL-10 and downregulated expression of M2 markers [(CD163, CD206, and arginase-1 (Arg-1)] (P<0.05,P<0.01). Compared with the model group, treatment with Sini San-containing serum at various concentrations lowered the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and expression of M1 markers (P<0.05, P<0.01), while increasing the IL-10 level and M2 marker expression (P<0.05, P<0.01). Additionally, Sini San downregulated the mRNA level of NF-κB and upregulated the mRNA level of STAT (P<0.05, P<0.01). In the experiment with human primary Kupffer cells, compared with the blank group, the M1 group showed increased NF-κB p65 expression (P<0.01) and decreased STAT3 expression (P<0.05), whereas the M2 group exhibited increased STAT3 expression (P<0.01). Compared with the respective model groups, Sini San-containing serum reversed the M1-induced overexpression of NF-κB p65 (P<0.05, P<0.01) and further enhanced the M2-induced STAT3 expression (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionSini San can inhibit the NF-κB p65/STAT3 signaling pathway and repolarize intrahepatic Kupffer cells from the pro-inflammatory M1 to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype to attenuate inflammation and suppress hepatic stellate cell activation and collagen deposition, thereby exerting anti-fibrotic effect.

Objective:To analyze the development trajectory of sleep quality in patients with insomnia after cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-I), and to explore the influencing factors of different development trajectories.Methods:A total of 418 patients with insomnia who received CBT-I at the Sleep Medicine Center of Xiamen Xianyue Hospital from February 2019 to June 2023 were recruited using convenience sampling. All patients completed the Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) at five time points: before CBT-I initiation (T1), at the end of treatment (T2), and at 3 months (T3), 6 months (T4), and 12 months (T5) post-treatment. At T1, all patients were evaluated by the insomnia severity index (ISI), Flinders fatigue scale (FFS), Beck depression inventory-Ⅱ (BDI-Ⅱ), Beck anxiety inventory (BAI), and dysfunctional beliefs and attitudes about sleep scale (DBAS). Latent class growth modeling (LCGM) was constructed and employed to analyze the development trajectories of sleep quality post-CBT-I using Mplus 8.0 software. Univariate analysis and Logistic regression analysis were conducted by SPSS 26.0 software to explore influencing factors of the sleep quality trajectories.Results:The PSQI scores of insomnia patients at T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5 were 15(12, 18), 8(6, 11), 5(3, 7), 5(3, 7) and 5(2, 7), respectively. Three distinct development trajectories were identified. Based on these trajectories, 418 patients were categorized into fluctuating development group ( n=44, 10.53%), slow improvement group ( n=193, 46.17%), and sustained improvement group ( n=181, 43.30%). Logistic regression analysis revealed that depressive symptom severity, anxiety symptom severity, family history of insomnia, and use of hypnotic medications were significant influencing factors for the sleep quality trajectories after CBT-I treatment (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The sleep quality of insomnia patients after CBT-I treatment shows different development trajectories, and its influencing factors are depression, anxiety, family history of insomnia and the use of hypnotic medications.

BACKGROUND:Stage Ⅲ Kümmell's disease is characterized by a high degree of vertebral compression and posterior wall defects.Most of the patients are elderly people with severe osteoporosis and various medical diseases.Clinically,some surgical methods are often at high risk and are controversial. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical efficacy of screw placement combined with transpedicular impaction bone grafting in the treatment of stage Ⅲ Kümmell's disease. METHODS:The clinical data of injured vertebral screw placement combined with transpedicular impaction bone grafting in treatment of stage Ⅲ Kummell's disease from May 2016 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Visual analog scale score,Oswestry disability index,anterior vertebral heights,kyphotic Cobb angle and American Spinal Injury Association(ASIA)impairment scale were used to evaluate the effects of surgery.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss and complications were recorded.CT scans were used to evaluate the healing of injured vertebrae at the final follow-up visit. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 26 patients were included,with 7 males and 19 females,at the age range of 62-81 years[mean(69.7±4.8)years].The follow-up time was 18-60 months[mean(35.1±8.9)months].The average operative duration was 133.5 minutes(100-165 minutes),and the average intraoperative blood loss was 285.3 mL(210-350 mL).(2)Visual analog scale and Oswestry disability index scores 1 week after surgery were significantly lower than those before surgery.(3)At 1 week after surgery,the anterior vertebral height corrections and the Cobb angle were(9.0±0.7)mm and(16.2±1.0)°,respectively.During the follow-up period,the loss of vertebral height and kyphosis correction were(5.1±0.3)mm and(8.0±0.4)°,respectively.(4)14 patients(54%)had ASIA grade D before operation,which recovered to grade E at the last follow-up.CT scan showed that all patients achieved good osseous union.(5)Complications occurred in seven patients(27%),including hypostatic pneumonia in two cases,postoperative superficial wound tissue liquefaction in two cases,and adjacent vertebral compression fractures in three cases.(6)It is concluded that screw placement of the injured vertebra combined with transpedicular impaction bone grafting can rapidly rebuild spinal stability,effectively relieve pain and improve neurological function in the treatment of stage Ⅲ Kümmell's disease.This technique is an effective and relatively minimally invasive surgical option.
