This paper comprehensively discusses on the potential neurobiological mechanisms of acupuncture in the treatment of tobacco dependence， focusing on three important aspects， including acupuncture's regulation of tobacco dependence behavior， effects of acupuncture on withdrawal syndrome， and the role of acupuncture in preventing relapse. It is found that acupuncture can inhibit drug-seeking behavior by regulating the reward pathway and related neurons， such as dopamine， thus modulating tobacco dependence behavior. It also alleviates withdrawal symptoms by improving the oral environment of smokers and reducing negative emotions after quitting. Furthermore， acupuncture can prevent relapse by decreasing brain network activity related to smoking cravings and improving cognitive brain functions like addiction memory. Currently， research on the specific neurobiological mechanism of acupuncture in treating tobacco dependence and the involved neural circuits is limited. Future research directions are proposed， including the evaluation of clinical effects， exploration of specific therapeutic mechanisms， investigation of brain pathology， and strengthening the exploration of brain functions. Additionally， combining modern technologies to clarify the neural circuits involved in acupuncture intervention will provide a basis for acupuncture treatment of tobacco addiction.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy that poses significant treatment challenges due to its heterogeneity and propensity for relapse and progression. In the last two decades, the therapeutic landscape of MM has changed dramatically, but the disease remains largely incurable, with many patients facing treatment resistance. This review evaluates the current status of MM treatments, emphasizing the limitations of traditional therapies and the emerging role of immunotherapy in improving patient outcomes. It highlights the importance of achieving and maintaining minimal residual disease negativity and a balanced immune response as key treatment goals. Furthermore, it discusses the advancements in immunotherapies that are improving the prospects for patients, particularly those with relapsed or refractory disease. Innovative strategies, such as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, bispecific antibodies, and bispecific T cell engagers, have shown significant promise by targeting the malignant cells and the bone marrow microenvironment, which are essential for disease persistence and resistance to therapy. Future research should focus on refining MM treatment strategies, including the integration of immunotherapy into earlier treatment lines and the development of predictive biomarkers for personalized treatment approaches, ultimately enhancing patient outcomes.

Colorectal cancer （CRC） is a prevalent malignant tumor of the digestive tract， with a high incidence and high mortality. The majority of patients are diagnosed at the middle or advanced stage， which severely influences and threatens their physical health. Current treatment modalities such as surgery， radiotherapy， and chemotherapy often encounter challenges including metastasis， recurrence， and drug resistance. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway serves as a classical regulator that regulates physiological processes such as cell cycle， autophagy， apoptosis， and proliferation. Overexpression of this pathway is observed in various tumors. In the context of CRC， the activation of this pathway can facilitate the proliferation， invasion， and migration， inhibit the autophagy and apoptosis， promote the epithelial-mesenchymal transition of CRC cells， enhance angiogenesis within the tumor， and contribute to chemotherapy resistance and radiation resistance in CRC. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） treatment can exert an anti-CRC effect by inhibiting this pathway， thereby improving clinical efficacy and safety. This article retrieves relevant research literature published domestically and internationally regarding the regulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway by TCM in the treatment of CRC and conducts detailed classification and summary. The active components of TCM include glycosides， flavonoids， alkaloids， terpenoids， polyphenols， and naphthoquinones. The volatile oils and extracts of TCM include Angelicae Sinensis Radix volatile oil， Astragali Radix polysaccharides， Caryophylli Flos extract， Forsythiae Fructus extract， Curcumae Longae Rhizoma extract， and Celastrus orbiculatus extract. The compound formulas of TCM include Banxia Xiexin decoction， Jianpi Qingre Huoxue formula， and Chanling Plaster. Through summary and analysis， it is discovered that the abovementioned TCM can produce effects such as blocking the cell cycle， inducing autophagy and apoptosis， inhibiting angiogenesis， suppressing proliferation and migration， and reversing chemotherapy resistance and radiotherapy resistance by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway in CRC cells. TCM holds promise in the research and application of targeting the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway for CRC treatment. The summary and conclusion of this article aim to provide references for subsequent research and the development of new drugs.

Objective:To explore the correlation between the intensity of net ultrafiltration in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and the survival prognosis in critically ill patients with acute kidney injury (AKI), and provide evidence-based references for establishing optimal net ultrafiltration target during CRRT.Methods:This was a retrospective observational study. Demographic and clinical data of critically ill AKI patients who received CRRT in the Intensive Care Unit of West China Hospital, Sichuan University from May 2021 to September 2023 were collected. Net ultrafiltration was defined as the hourly fluid clearance volume in the 72 hours prior of CRRT. This variable was converted into a categorical variable, including low net ultrafiltration <1.01 ml·kg -1·h -1, moderate net ultrafiltration 1.01-1.38 ml·kg -1·h -1 and high net ultrafiltration >1.38 ml·kg -1·h -1, and the differences of baseline characteristics and clinical treatment conditions among the three groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and log-rank test were used to compare the survival conditions among the three groups in patients at 28 days and 60 days after CRRT. Logistic regression analysis method was used to analyze the related factors of mortality in patients 28 days and 60 days after CRRT. Results:This study included a total of 661 critically ill AKI patients who underwent CRRT for more than 72 hours. The age was 56.00 (43.00, 68.00) years, and 488 patients (73.83%) were males. The net ultrafiltration rate was 1.36 (0.94, 1.89) ml·kg -1·h -1. Among them, 188 patients (28.44%) were in the low net ultrafiltration group, 152 patients (23.00%) were in the medium net ultrafiltration group, and 321 patients (48.56%) were in the high net ultrafiltration group. There were statistically significant differences among the three groups in terms of gender distribution ( χ2=17.81, P<0.001), body mass index ( H=32.37, P<0.001), urine volume 24 hours before admission ( H=9.41, P=0.009), fluid overload ( H=6.02, P=0.049), platelets ( H=13.49, P=0.001), pro-B type natriuretic peptide ( H=14.18, P<0.001), serum creatinine ( H=9.66, P=0.008), lactate ( H=9.83, P=0.007), AKI stage distribution ( χ2=15.51, P=0.004), admission indication ( P<0.001), total CRRT duration ( H=8.45, P=0.015), ultrafiltration ( H=456.10, P<0.001), net ultrafiltration ( H=561.20, P<0.001), and vasoactive-inotropic score at 72 hours of CRRT treatment ( H=10.42, P=0.005). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in the 28-day (Log-rank test, χ2=10.89, P=0.004) and 60-day (Log-rank test, χ2=8.55, P=0.014) survival rates among the three groups in patients after CRRT. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed age ( OR=1.03, 95% CI 1.02-1.04, P<0.001), mean arterial pressure ( OR=0.98, 95% CI 0.97-1.00, P=0.011), bilirubin ( OR=3.02,95% CI 1.39-5.59, P=0.006), 72-hour vasoactive-inotropic score ( OR=1.01, 95% CI 1.00-1.02, P=0.004), low net ultrafiltration group (medium net ultrafiltration group as a reference, OR=1.66, 95% CI 1.02-2.72, P=0.042), and high net ultrafiltration group (medium net ultrafiltration group as a reference, OR=1.78, 95% CI 1.14-2.78, P=0.011) were independent correlated factors of 28-day mortality after CRRT. Age ( OR=1.02，95% CI 1.01-1.04， P<0.001), mean arterial pressure ( OR=0.98，95% CI 0.97-1.00， P=0.016), fluid overload ( OR=1.10, 95% CI 1.02-1.19, P=0.012), bilirubin ( OR=4.96，95% CI 1.00-17.80， P=0.013), 72-hour vasoactive-inotropic score ( OR=1.02，95% CI 1.01-1.03， P=0.003), and high net ultrafiltration group (medium net ultrafiltration group as a reference, OR=1.91，95% CI 1.22-3.00， P=0.005) were independent correlated factors of 60-day mortality after CRRT. Conclusions:During the first 72 hours of CRRT, net ultrafiltration > 1.38 ml·kg -1·h -1 and net ultrafiltration < 1.01 ml·kg -1·h -1 are associated with a higher mortality rate at 28 days or 60 days after CRRT. Net ultrafiltration of 1.01-1.38 ml·kg -1·h -1 may be a relatively safe range.

Objective To explore the potential causal links between micronutrient levels and the risk of immune-mediated inflammatory skin disease(IMID).Methods Leveraging publicly accessible genome-wide association study(GWAS)datasets,fifteen specific micronutrients were identified as exposure variables,while four prevalent IMID:Psoriasis,atopic dermatitis,urticaria,and alopecia areata were designated as study outcomes.Robust instrumental variables were meticulously selected to facilitate the Mendelian randomization analysis.The main assessment used the inverse-variance weighting(IVW)method,complemented by an assortment of Mendelian randomization methodologies,inclusive of MR-Egger,weighted median estimate(WME)and weighted mode(WM).Rigorous sensitivity analyses were conducted to bolster the robustness of the findings.Results Vitamin D exhibited a significant inverse association with the risk of psoriasis(OR=0.996,P=0.001,95％CI:0.994-0.998),corroborated by consistent trends across WME,MR-Egger,and WM methods.Phosphorus demonstrated a positive correlation with urticaria risk(OR=5.634,95％CI:1.792-17.711,P=0.003),with findings in alignment with WME and WM methods.Copper was found to be positively associated with atopic dermatitis risk(ORIVW=1.234,P=0.0007,95％CI:1.092-1.394),and vitamin E levels were significantly related to the risk of urticaria(OR=26.643,P=0.013,95％CI:1.981-358.333).Sensitivity analysis did not show heterogeneity and pleiotropy(P＞0.05).Conclusion The study establishes a causal relationship between vitamin D levels and the risk of psoriasis,suggesting that augmenting vitamin D intake could be a viable dietary intervention for psoriasis prevention.These findings offer novel insights into the preventative and therapeutic strategies for IMID.

Dendrobium moniliforme (D. moniliforme) is a traditional medicinal herb widely cultivated in Asia. Flavonoids, one of the largest groups of secondary metabolites in plants, are significant medicinal components in Dendrobium species. Several subgroups of R2R3-MYB proteins have been validated to directly regulate flavonoid biosynthesis. Using PacBio sequencing technology, we assembled a high-quality chromosome-level D. moniliforme genome with a total length of 1.20 Gb and a contig N50 of 3.97 Mb. The BUSCO assessment of genome annotation was 91.4%. By integrating the genome and transcriptome, we identified biosynthesis pathway enzyme genes related to flavonoids, polysaccharides, carotenoids, and alkaloids. A total of 90 R2R3-MYBs were identified in D. moniliforme and classified into 21 subgroups. Studies on the functions of R2R3-MYB transcription factors revealed that R2R3-MYB in SG6 can up-regulate flavonoid biosynthesis. Various validation experiments, including subcellular localization, transient overexpression, UPLC-MS/MS, HPLC, yeast one-hybrid, and dual-luciferase assays, demonstrated that DMYB69 directly up-regulates the expression of enzyme genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis, increasing the content of flavonoids such as anthocyanin, flavone, and flavonol. Additionally, DMYB44 was shown to directly up-regulate the expression of carotenoid biosynthesis enzyme genes, thereby increasing carotenoid content. This study provides an essential genome resource and theoretical basis for molecular breeding research in D. moniliforme.

Objective:To systematically evaluate and integrate the exercise experience of overweight or obese pregnant women during pregnancy, in order to provide basis for the formulation of standardized exercise programs for this population.Methods:We searched databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, Ovid, PsycINFO, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, VIP, Wanfang and China National Knowledge Infrastructure, from their inception to August 16, 2023, to collect qualitative studies on the exercise experience of overweight or obese pregnant women during pregnancy. The quality of included studies was evaluated according to Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Tool for qualitative studies in Australia. The results were integrated by integrating methods.Results:A total of 11 studies were included. Sixty-one complete findings were grouped according to similarities to form 9 new categories. These categories resulted in 3 synthesized findings. Pregnant women with overweight or obesity were affected by promoting and hindering factors; careful balance of exercise risk and benefit for overweight or obese pregnant women during pregnancy; expectations and needs of overweight or obese pregnant women for exercise during pregnancy.Conclusions:Overweight or obese pregnant women highly rated the benefits and importance of exercise, but their participation and adherence to exercise is challenging. Medical staff should pay attention to the exercise experience of overweight or obese pregnant women during pregnancy, understand the driving factors and obstacles of exercise for overweight or obese pregnant women, in order to provide standardized and personalized exercise guidance programs for overweight or obese pregnant women.

This paper explores the possibility of improving syndrome differentiation system of weifen,qifen,yingfen and xuefen.Clinical manifestations of xuefen syndrome in warm diseases are diverse with complex pathogenesis.Based on the previous re-search of the research group and the theories of essence and marrow,combined with characteristics of bleeding,organ failure,abnormal consciousness,and spasms in the extreme and late stages of warm diseases,it is suggested that the traditional xuefen syndrome should be further subdivided into xuefen syndrome mainly characterized by disorders in blood generation,circulation,and function,jingfen syndrome mainly characterized by organ failure,and suifen syndrome mainly characterized by symptoms of consciousness and nervous system abnormalities.Adopting six stage differentiation and treatment of weifen,qifen,yingfen,xuefen,jingfen and suifen not only ex-pands the progressive pattern of warm disease pathogenesis,deepens the understanding of the pathogenesis essence of each stage in warm diseases,especially the extreme and late stages,promotes the precision of treatment guides and prescriptions,but also helps us understand the common transformation and evolution laws of external and internal diseases,and thus improves the diagnosis and treat-ment effectiveness.
