ObjectiveTo explore the effect and mechanism of Taishan Panshi powder （TSPSP） on inhibiting oxidative stress injury in human chorionic trophoblast cells （HTR-8/SVneo）， and to uelucidate the underlying mechanism of TSPSP in the treatment of spontaneous abortion （SA）. MethodsGene differential analysis of SA was performed using the Gene Expression Omnibus （GEO） database and correlated with oxidative stress. Network pharmacology was employed to screen the active components of TSPSP， and a "Chinese medicine-component-target-disease" network was constructed to predict the mechanism of action of TSPSP. For in vitro validation experiments， HTR-8/SVneo cells were divided into blank group， model group， TSPSP-containing serum 2.5%， 5%， 10% groups， and nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2） inhibitor group （ML385， 30 μmol·L^-1）. Except for the blank group， other groups were stimulated with 150 μmol·L^-1 H₂O₂ for 3 h to establish a cell oxidative stress injury model. After successful modeling， the blank group and model group were given 10% blank serum， each TSPSP-containing serum group was treated with the corresponding concentration of drug-containing serum， and the Nrf2 inhibitor group was additionally given 30 μmol·L^-1 ML385 on the basis of 10% TSPSP-containing serum. All groups of cells were continuously cultured under the above conditions for 24 h， and then samples were collected for subsequent detection. Cell viability in each group was detected by CCK-8 assay. Cell migration rate was detected by scratch test. The contents of malondialdehyde （MDA）， Fe²⁺， and Glutathione （GSH） were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Intracellular reactive oxygen species （ROS） level was detected by a fluorescent probe （DCF-DA）. The protein and mRNA expression levels of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 （KEAP1）， Nrf2， and forkhead box protein O3 （FoxO3） in cells were detected by immunofluorescence （IF） and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. The protein expression levels of KEAP1， Nrf2， FoxO3， Glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4）， and superoxide dismutase （SOD） in cells were detected by Western blot. ResultsThe GSE76862 and GSE22490 datasets were obtained from the GEO database. Differential gene analyses showed that the KEAP1， Nrf2， and FoxO3 genes were all associated with the disease. After matching with the oxidative stress pathway， nine significantly differential pathways were identified （P<0.05）， among which three contained the target genes Nrf2 and FoxO3. A total of 246 active ingredient targets of TSPSP and 2 804 SA-related targets were obtained through network pharmacology， and 154 potential action targets were obtained after taking the intersection. Topological analysis showed that targets such as KEAP1 and Nrf2 exhibited high degree values. GO and KEGG enrichment analyses indicated that the intersection targets were mainly involved in oxidative stress response， FOXO and MAPK signaling pathways， etc. In in vitro experiments， compared with the blank group， the cell viability in the model group was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the cell viability in each TSPSP-containing serum group was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Compared with the 10% TSPSP-containing serum group， the cell viability in the ML385 group decreased to approximately 70% （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the model group showed significantly increased contents of MDA， Fe²⁺， and ROS， decreased GSH expression （P<0.01）， significantly reduced cell migration rate （P<0.01）， and increased protein and mRNA expression levels of KEAP1 and FoxO3 （P<0.01）， while decreased protein and mRNA expression levels of Nrf2， GPX4， and SOD （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， each TSPSP-containing serum group showed significantly decreased contents of MDA， Fe²⁺， and ROS， increased GSH expression （P<0.01）， significantly increased migration rate （P<0.01）， significantly decreased protein and mRNA expression levels of KEAP1 and FoxO3 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and significantly increased protein and mRNA expression levels of Nrf2， GPX4， and SOD （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the 10% TSPSP-containing serum group， the ML385 group showed reversed trends in all indicators （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionTSPSP can inhibit H₂O₂-induced oxidative stress injury of trophoblast cells， and its mechanism of action may be related to the drug activating the KEAP1/Nrf2/FoxO3 signaling pathway.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a common head and neck malignancy. Approximately 50% to 60% of patients with OSCC are diagnosed at a locally advanced stage (clinical staging III-IVa). Even with comprehensive and sequential treatment primarily based on surgery, the 5-year overall survival rate remains below 50%, and patients often suffer from postoperative functional impairments such as difficulties with speaking and swallowing. Programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are increasingly used in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC and have shown encouraging efficacy. However, clinical practice still faces key challenges, including the definition of indications, optimization of combination regimens, and standards for efficacy evaluation. Based on the latest research advances worldwide and the clinical experience of the expert group, this expert consensus systematically evaluates the application of PD-1 inhibitors in the neoadjuvant treatment of locally advanced OSCC, covering combination strategies, treatment cycles and surgical timing, efficacy assessment, use of biomarkers, management of special populations and immune related adverse events, principles for immunotherapy rechallenge, and function preservation strategies. After multiple rounds of panel discussion and through anonymous voting using the Delphi method, the following consensus statements have been formulated: 1) Neoadjuvant therapy with PD-1 inhibitors can be used preoperatively in patients with locally advanced OSCC. The preferred regimen is a PD-1 inhibitor combined with platinum based chemotherapy, administered for 2-3 cycles. 2) During the efficacy evaluation of neoadjuvant therapy, radiographic assessment should follow the dual criteria of Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 and immune RECIST (iRECIST). After surgery, systematic pathological evaluation of both the primary lesion and regional lymph nodes is required. For combination chemotherapy regimens, PD-L1 expression and combined positive score need not be used as mandatory inclusion or exclusion criteria. 3) For special populations such as the elderly (≥ 70 years), individuals with stable HIV viral load, and carriers of chronic HBV/HCV, PD-1 inhibitors may be used cautiously under the guidance of a multidisciplinary team (MDT), with close monitoring for adverse events. 4) For patients with a poor response to neoadjuvant therapy, continuation of the original treatment regimen is not recommended; the subsequent treatment plan should be adjusted promptly after MDT assessment. Organ transplant recipients and patients with active autoimmune diseases are not recommended to receive neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy due to the high risk of immune related activation. Rechallenge is generally not advised for patients who have experienced high risk immune related adverse events such as immune mediated myocarditis, neurotoxicity, or pneumonitis. 5) For patients with a good pathological response, individualized de escalation surgery and function preservation strategies can be explored. This consensus aims to promote the standardized, safe, and precise application of neoadjuvant PD-1 inhibitor strategies in the management of locally advanced OSCC patients.

ObjectiveTo analyze the incidence and spatiotemporal distribution of typhus fever in Baoshan City, Yunnan Province from 2005 to 2023, to identify high-risk populations and regions, so as to provide a scientific basis for optimizing the allocation of local prevention and control resources and developing targeted intervention measures. MethodsData of typhus fever cases in Baoshan City from 2005 to 2023 were obtained from the Infectious Disease Information Management System of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the temporal, spatial and demographic distribution of typhus fever cases. Spatial clustering was assessed using spatial dynamic window scan statistics (circular and elliptical windows), flexible spatial scan statistics, and local spatial autocorrelation methods (including local Moran’s I, local Geary’s C, and Getis-Ord G_i*). Retrospective spatiotemporal scan statistics were employed to detect spatiotemporal clusters. ResultsA total of 1 099 typhus fever cases were reported in Baoshan City from 2005 to 2023. The incidence rate peaked at 6.31/ 100 000 in 2007, followed by a decline until reaching its lowest level at 0.21/100 000 in 2015 , and subsequently rebounded during 2016‒2023. The highest proportion of cases was among children under 10 years of age (31.12%), and the top three occupations of cases were farmers, students, and children, accounting for 88.62% of all cases. Cases occurred predominantly between June and September each year. The incidence was relatively high in Jiucheng Town (62.58/100 000), Yaoguan Town (57.15/100 000), and Dianyang Town (46.81/100 000) of Shidian County. Spatial clustering analyses indicated that high-risk areas were mainly located in the southern part of Baoshan City, showing a south-to-north trend. Spatiotemporal scan analyses identified five clusters, with the most likely cluster centered around Yaoguan Town, covering ten towns (subdistricts) during the period 2007‒2010. ConclusionThe incidence of typhus fever in Baoshan City exhibits a clear seasonal and spatial clustering pattern, with peak incidence occurring in summer and autumn. Spatially, cases are primarily distributed in the southern part of Baoshan City, and high-risk clusters exhibit a south-to-north trend. Farmers, students, and children are the high-risk groups.

Osteoporosis is a systemic disease, and epidemiological projections indicate that by 2050, approximately 23.43% of the Chinese population over 50 years of age will be affected. Given the poor prognosis associated with osteoporosis, the exploration of safe and effective natural products is of considerable significance. Studies investigating the chemical constituents of traditional Chinese medicine in cellular and/or animal models have demonstrated bone-protective effects. Although most of these compounds lack clinical data, they hold considerable potential as lead candidates for drug development. In-depth study of the structure-activity relationship of these natural products not only contributes to elucidating the mechanisms of action but also provides a theoretical basis for the development of novel antiosteoporosis therapies. This review summarizes natural products with potential antiosteoporotic effects reported between 2020 and 2024. Overall, plant-derived natural compounds exhibit antiosteoporotic effects by regulating bone remodeling, inflammation, and oxidative stress, highlighting their promise as multitarget therapeutic candidates.

Steatotic liver disease is characterized by substantial heterogeneity in etiology， metabolic background， and pathological progression， and no single model can fully recapitulate the spectrum of human disease. There are currently various preclinical models， yet further standardization is needed in terms of nomenclature， model selection， experimental conditions， and assessment indices. Issued by the European Association for the Study of the Liver， this 2026 position paper systematically reviews the in vivo， in vitro， and ex vivo models of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease， metabolic dysfunction and alcohol-associated liver disease， and alcohol-associated liver disease. It proposes the selection of models based on disease subtype， research objective， and target endpoint and provides recommendations for pharmacological positive controls， experimental design， histopathological assessment， and minimum reporting requirements. This article gives an excerpt of the key contents of the position paper， so as to facilitate standardized selection and evaluation of preclinical models for steatotic liver disease and improve their concordance with human disease phenotypes.

Objective To investigate the evaluation value of lymphocyte count(LYM),interleukin(IL)-6 and D-dimer on the severity in the patients with sepsis.Methods The clinical data in 107 patients with sepsis admitted and treated in the Emergency ICU(EICU)of this hospital from January 2023 to November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The basic clinical data,laboratory routine inflammatory indicators,im-mune indicators,coagulation indicators and the related disease condition score within 24 h after entering EICU were collected.The patients were divided into the sepsis group(n=54)and septic shock group(n=53)ac-cording to whether or not septic shock occurred.The multivariate logistic regression model was used to ana-lyze the influencing factors of septic shock occurrence,the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency,and Spearman correlation method was used to analyze the correlation between LYM,IL-6 and D-dimer with septic shock occurrence in the patients with sepsis.Results The se-quential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score and the levels of LYM,CRP,IL-6 and D-dimer had statistically significantly differences between the two groups(P＜0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that LYM,IL-6 and D-di-mer were the influencing factors of septic shock occurrence(P＜0.05).The ROC curve analysis results showed that LYM,IL-6 and D-dimer alone or combination detection all had certain predictive value for septic shock occurrence,but the area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity of the three combined detec-tion were higher than those of detection alone.The Spearman correlation analysis results showed that IL-6(r=0.407)and D-dimer(r=0.482)levels were positively correlated with the severity of septic shock,while the LYM level(r=-0.513)was negatively correlated with the severity of septic shock(P＜0.01).Conclusion The combination application of LYM,IL-6 and D-dimer could effectively evaluate the severity of the patients with sepsis.

Objective To investigate the interaction between a novel antimicrobial compound,HL-J6,and penicillin-binding protein 1(PBP1)of Staphylococcus aureus.Methods With MRSA252 genomic DNA as the template and PBP1F and PBP1R as primers,the expression plasmid pET30a-pbp1-39-608 was constructed by amplifying the target gene fragment followed by cloning into the Nde I/Xho I restriction sites of the pET30a vector.Then the obtained plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli for the expression of PBP1-39-608 protein,and the product was purified by affinity chromatography.The inhibitory effect of HL-J6 on the transpeptidase activity of PBP1-39-608 was measured using peptidoglycan side chain backbone peptide,with thiol ester analog S2d as the substrate.The affinity between HL-J6 and PBP1-39-608 was detected using microscale thermophoresis(MST),and the binding interaction was confirmed by cellular thermal shift assay(CETSA).Molecular docking and dynamics simulation were performed using AutoDock Vina and Desmond software,respectively,to elucidate the binding mode of HL-J6 with the PBP1-39-608 protein and the key amino acid residues involved.Results The recombinant plasmid pET30a-pbp1-39-608 was successfully constructed,and PBP1-39-608 protein was produced after induction and purified,yielding a protein with an approximate molecular mass of 65×103.HL-J6 inhibited the transpeptidase activity of PBP1-39-608 in a time-dependent manner(P<0.001).The dissociation constant Kd of the binding between HL-J6 and PBP1-39-608 was 64.92 μmol/L.Molecular docking results showed that HL-J6 bound to the active pocket of PBP1-39-608 by interacting with key residues such as ILE-348,ASN-370,THR-516 and PHE-423,with a binding score of-8.38 kcal/mol(<-5.00 kcal/mol).Dynamics simulation results indicated that the complex became stable after 50 ns.Conclusion HL-J6 effectively inhibits the transpeptidase activity of Staphylococcus aureus PBP1,and shows stable interaction with the protein.

Objective To systematically assess the spatiotemporal distribution,risk factors,and future trends of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)among individuals under 50 years of age globally from 1990 to 2021 based on Global Burden of Disease(GBD)data in order to provide support for the formulation of prevention and control strategies of the disease.Methods The GBD data from 1990 to 2021 were analyzed for the incidence,mortality,disability-adjusted life years(DALYs),and estimated annual percentage change(EAPC)of COPD in<50-year-old individuals across 204 countries and regions.The data were stratified by age,sex,region,country,and sociodemographic index(SDI).The COPD trends until 2035 were predicted.Results In 2021,the global incidence of early-onset COPD was estimated at 2.5 million cases(95%uncertainty interval:2.09～2.96 million),representing a 50.55%increase compared to 1990.Significant regional heterogeneity was observed,with low SDI regions experiencing a 134.08%increase,whereas high SDI regions exhibited a rise-then-fall trend.Risk factor analysis identified environmental and occupational exposures(air pollution,ambient ozone pollution,household air pollution from solid fuels,etc.)and smoking as the primary etiological factors.Notably,household solid fuel exposure accounted for 50.90%of COPD-related deaths in low SDI regions,compared to only 0.03%in high SDI regions.Projections indicated that by 2035,the global burden of early-onset COPD will increase to 2.59 million cases.Conclusion The global disease burden of COPD among people under 50 years increased significantly from 1990 to 2021,with pronounced disparities across regions and socioeconomic levels.COPD deaths in low-SDI regions are strongly associated with solid fuel exposure and particulate matter pollution,and these regions are expected to remain the main drivers of global COPD incidence growth through 2035.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1)to placental growth factor(PLGF)ratio(sFlt-1/PLGF),serum uric acid(UA)and albumin(ALB)for preeclampsia(PE).Methods A total of 110 pregnant women with PE who underwent prenatal examination,delivery and had complete data at the Affiliated Women's and Children's Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University from January 2022 to July 2023 were selected as the PE group,and another 47 healthy pregnant women during the same period were selected as the control group.A retrospective analysis was conducted.The general data of the two groups of pregnant women,such as gestational weeks at delivery,blood pressure,body mass index(BMI),the second trimester and biochemical indicators,such as serum sFlt-1 and PLGF were compared.Lo-gistic regression Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors for the occurrence of PE,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of sFlt-1/PLGF and biochemical indicators for PE.Results The levels of serum UA and sFlt-1/PLGF in the PE group were higher than those in the control group,while the level of serum ALB was lower than that in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The results of ROC curve analysis showed that sFlt-1/PLGF,UA,and ALB all had certain diagnostic value for PE.The areas under the curve(AUC)were 0.854,0.825,and 0.778 respectively,and the AUC of the combination of the three was 0.894,which was higher than that of the single detection(P＜0.05).Conclusion The three indicators,sFlt-1/PLGF,UA and ALB,are all have reference value for predicting the occurrence and development of PE.The combined detec-tion of the three has a better diagnostic efficacy for PE..
