Guided by the classical theory of "the liver being the general and the spleen being the defender"， this study explores the intrinsic relationship between the pathogenesis of hepatic fibrosis （HF） and immune-metabolic reprogramming. It is proposed that the pathogenesis of HF in traditional Chinese medicine demonstrates a high degree of biological correspondence to the modern medical concept of the immune-metabolic interaction network. Specifically， immune homeostasis imbalance is analogous to the failure of the spleen's defense and malnourishment of the liver collaterals； lipid metabolic disorder and inflammatory infiltration correspond to the wood constraint， earth congestion， and phlegm-dampness turbid accumulation； "heat-transformation brewing toxin" promotes glycolytic reprogramming and， together with "healthy qi deficiency and stasis binding" leads to microenvironment deterioration. Accordingly， a micro-level syndrome differentiation and treatment strategy is proposed， which emphasizes on enriching earth and nourishing wood， consolidating defense and moistening collaterals to restore immune homeostasis， soothing the liver and activating the spleen， dispelling dampness and eliminate turbidity to correct lipid metabolic disorder， clearing heat and removing toxins， reinforcing healthy qi and resolving stasis to intervene in glycolytic reprogramming and the inflammatory microenvironment， thereby ameliorating the progression of HF.

Objective: To quantify the spatiotemporal factors and built environment effects on daily blood collection volumes at fixed sites using multi-source spatiotemporal data, explore the influence radii of different point of interest(POI) categories, and develop a classification framework for sites, thereby providing data references for efficiency diagnosis and network optimization of blood collection sites. Methods: We collected daily blood donation records from 16 fixed whole blood collection sites in Guangzhou in 2023, constructing a balanced “site-day” panel dataset (16 sites × 365 days = 5 840 observations). Multi-source geospatial data, including Amap POI, OpenStreetMap (OSM) road network, and meteorological data were integrated to establish 300 m, 500 m, 800 m, and 1 000 m buffer zones around each site. Variables extracted included counts of surrounding commercial facilities, distance to the nearest subway station, rainfall, and temperature. A two-way fixed effects panel model was employed with a first-order lag term of the dependent variable to capture the inertial effect of blood donation behavior. Based on the significant regression coefficients, a "Structure-Function Index (SFI)" was constructed for each site to identify its optimal buffer radius. Combining inherent site capacity (fixed effects) with the optimal SFI, a two-dimensional quadrant diagram was created to classify the sites. Results: The optimized model showed an adjusted R of 0.89 and a Durbin-Watson statistic of 1.90, with the lag term coefficient stable at 0.36 (P<0.05). Temporal effects were significant: campaign days increased blood collection by 1 717.75 mL, holidays by 3 755.53 mL, and overlapping holidays with campaign days by 5 650.49 mL (P<0.05). Rainy days reduced collection by approximately 419 mL (P<0.05), and each 1℃ rise in daily average temperature decreased collection by approximately 31 mL (P<0.05). Distance to the nearest subway station was significantly positive (coefficient 0.95-1.39, P<0.05). POI effects showed scale-dependent differences: within 300 m, leisure and entertainment (+173.65 mL/unit) and shopping (+2.95 mL/unit) were significantly positive; within 500 m, tourist attractions (+72.55 mL/unit) and hotels (+40.09 mL/unit) were significantly positive; within 1 000 m, these effects diminished. Based on the two-dimensional classification of inherent collection capacity and optimal SFI, sites were categorized into four types: core, potential, adjustment, and resource-dependent. Conclusion: This study elucidates the multidimensional determinants of blood collection site efficiency, and provides quantitative evidence for performance diagnosis. It proposes a "concentric-zone planning" approach for site selection assessment alongside a" station-specific strategy" classification framework, offering data-driven references for network planning and resource allocation in blood collection and supply institutions. It should be noted that blood donation site selection also involves complex factors such as budgetary constraints, interdepartmental coordination, and venue conditions. This study provides a spatial econometric perspective for the quantitative optimization of blood collection networks.

Objective:To investigate whether herb cake-insulated moxibustion affects the expression of cholesterol metabolism-related protein 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase(HMGR)and inhibits the development of atherosclerosis by regulating the exosomal miR-223 expression.Methods:Thirty-six male New Zealand rabbits were randomly assigned to a normal group,a model group,and an herb cake-insulated moxibustion group,with 12 rabbits in each group.The model and the herb cake-insulated moxibustion groups were fed a high-fat diet for 8 weeks to induce an atherosclerosis model.Following successful modeling,the herb cake-insulated moxibustion group was subjected to bundling and herb cake-insulated moxibustion intervention,while the other two groups were subjected only to bundling without moxibustion.After 8 weeks of intervention,hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe aortic morphology;the serum levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were detected using an automatic biochemical analyzer in each group.Exosome morphology was observed using the transmission electron microscope;Western blotting(WB)was used to detect the protein levels of serum exosomal CD63 and CD9 markers,as well as liver HMGR;additionally,real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to quantify serum exosomal miR-223.Results:HE staining showed thickened aortic intima,lipid infiltration,foam cell aggregation,and structural damage to the arterial wall in the model group.Meanwhile,after modeling,the serum levels of LDL-C,TC,and TG increased significantly in the model and herb cake-insulated moxibustion groups compared to the normal group(P<0.05),suggesting successful atherosclerosis rabbit model preparation.The serum exosomes of rabbits in the model group exhibited a saucer-like or semi-concave spherical shape with diameters of 120-150 nm.WB detection results showed positive expression of the exosomal markers CD63 and CD9.After 8 weeks of intervention,the miR-223 level in the model group was significantly lower than that in the normal group(P<0.01).In contrast,the herb cake-insulated moxibustion group demonstrated significantly reduced serum levels of TC,TG,and LDL-C(P<0.05),increased miR-223 expression(P<0.01),and decreased relative liver HMGR protein expression(P<0.05)compared to the model group.Conclusion:Herb cake-insulated moxibustion may alleviate the progression of atherosclerosis by up-regulating exosomal miR-223 expression and down-regulating HMGR protein expression,thereby inhibiting cholesterol anabolic metabolism.

Circular RNA(circRNA)is a single-stranded RNA with a covalently closed loop structure,which has a more stable structure and lower immunogenicity than linear RNA.Many studies have shown that circRNA has characteristics such as conservation,stability,and tissue specificity,and can act as a microRNA(miRNA)sponge to interact with proteins and translation templates,and regulate biological functions such as gene expression and signal transduction.Based on the characteristics and various bio-logical functions of circRNA,some endogenous circRNA plays an important regulatory role in the occur-rence and development of tumors and has the potential to be used as biomarkers and therapeutic targets.In addition,mRNA drugs have limitations such as instability,easy degradation,low translation efficien-cy,and immunogenicity in practical applications.Engineered translatable exogenous circRNA can solve some of the limitations of linear mRNA application and become a new type of potential efficient drug.In this paper,we introduce the circRNA biogenesis mechanisms,specific biological functions,and the cur-rent status of diagnosis and treatment applications in tumors.This includes the diagnostic application of endogenous circRNA in tumors,the design and synthesis strategies of exogenous circRNA,and the cur-rent progress in the design and application of engineered circRNA vaccines using their stable and efficient protein expression functions in the treatment of tumors.Finally,we discuss the current clinical diagnostic application problems of circRNA,the challenges of exogenous circRNA therapeutic applications,and the prospects of the field.
