To investigate the mechanism of Qitu Erzhi Decoction(QTEZ) in ameliorating chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression and the focus of its decomposed formulae on the effects of hematopoietic cells of the three lineages, respectively. Ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) was used to identify the components of QTEZ intestinal absorption liquid and obtain the target sites, which were intersected with chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression targets collected from several databases, including OMIM, and an interaction network was established based on network pharmacology for Gene Ontology(GO) functional analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway analysis. Hematopoietic stem cells of mice were taken after intraperitoneal injection of 5-fluorouracil for myelosuppression modeling and randomly divided into the model group, Qitu Erzhi group, Astragali Radix-Angelicae Sinensis Radix group, Ligustri Lucidi Fructus-Ecliptae Herba group, Psoraleae Fructus-Cuscutae Semen group, and positive drug group, which were given the corresponding traditional Chinese medicine intestinal absorption liquid and the positive drug granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, respectively. The normal hematopoietic stem cells were taken as the control group and were given the intervention of normal saline. The proliferation of hematopoietic progenitor cells of three lineages was observed by flow cytometry, and the cell cycle and colony formation assay were observed. Western blot was used to verify the effect of QTEZ on the pathway proteins including phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K), phosphorylated PI3K(p-PI3K), protein kinase B(AKT), and phosphorylated AKT(p-AKT). RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the effects of QTEZ on cell cycle-related targets such as CDK inhibitor 1(P21), cyclin D1(CCND1), and cyclin-dependent kinase 4(CDK4). The results showed that a total of 158 components were identified by QTEZ, and 375 component and disease intersecting targets were obtained, 21 core components and 40 core targets were obtained after constructing the network, and GO and KEGG enrichment showed signaling pathways such as PI3K/AKT. QTEZ and its decomposed formulae could promote the 5-fluorouracil-blocked cell cycle to resume operation, and all of them had different degrees of restoration effects on the set of colonies, among which QTEZ had the best restoration effect, and the Astragali Radix-Angelicae Sinensis Radix group had a focused effect on colony forming unit-erythrocyte. Western blot results indicated that there was no significant difference in the expression levels of pathway proteins among the groups. RT-qPCR and Western blot results showed that QTEZ could down-regulate P21 and up-regulate the protein and mRNA expression of CDK4 and CCND1. In conclusion, QTEZ and its decomposed formulas can exert a protective effect on hematopoietic stem cells with 5-fluorouracil-induced myelosuppression by promoting the normal operation of the cell cycle and colony formation, and the mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of the cell cycle-related targets of P21 and the up-regulation of CDK4 and CCND1. In addition, Astragali Radix-Angelicae Sinensis Radix can have a targeted protective effect on erythrocytes.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to identify high-risk areas for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) mortality to provide relevant evidence for interventions in emerging economies. METHODS: Empirical Bayesian Kriging and a discrete Poisson space-time scan statistic were applied to identify the spatiotemporal clusters of T2DM mortality. The relationships between economic factors, air pollutants, and the mortality risk of T2DM were assessed using regression analysis and the Poisson Log-linear Model. RESULTS: A coastal district in East Guangdong, China, had the highest risk (Relative Risk [RR] = 4.58, P < 0.01), followed by the 10 coastal districts/counties in West Guangdong, China (RR = 2.88, P < 0.01). The coastal county in the Pearl River Delta, China (RR = 2.24, P < 0.01), had the third-highest risk. The remaining risk areas were two coastal counties in East Guangdong, 16 districts/counties in the Pearl River Delta, and two counties in North Guangdong, China. Mortality due to T2DM was associated with gross domestic product per capita (GDP per capita). In pilot assessments, T2DM mortality was significantly associated with carbon monoxide. CONCLUSION High mortality from T2DM occurred in the coastal areas of East and West Guangdong, especially where the economy was progressing towards the upper middle-income level.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common types of cancer in the world and is an important cause for cancer death. Although the application of immunotherapy in recent years has greatly improved the prognosis of NSCLC, there are still huge challenges in the treatment of NSCLC. The immune microenvironment plays an important role in the process of NSCLC development, infiltration and metastasis, and they can interact and influence each other, forming a vicious circle. Notably, single-cell RNA sequencing enables high-resolution analysis of individual cells and is of great value in revealing cell types, cell evolution trajectories, molecular mechanisms of cell differentiation, and intercellular regulation within the immune microenvironment. Single-cell RNA sequencing is expected to uncover more promising immunotherapies. This article reviews the important researches and latest achievements of single-cell RNA sequencing in the immune microenvironment of NSCLC, and aims to explore the significance of applying single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze the immune microenvironment of NSCLC.

Objective To compare the short-term clinical effects of Da Vinci robot-assisted thoracic surgery (RATS) and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in the treatment of posterior mediastinal tumors, and to explore the advantages of RATS posterior mediastinal tumor resection. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent posterior mediastinal tumors resection through the lateral chest approach admitted to the same medical group in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between January 2019 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different surgical methods, the patients were divided into a RATS group and a VATS group. The clinical data were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 85 patients were included in this study. There were 39 patients in the RATS group, including 25 females and 14 males, with an average age of 47.6±13.0 years, and 46 patients in the VATS group, including 14 males and 32 females, with an average age of 45.3±14.7 years. All patients completed the operation successfully. The hospitalization cost in the RATS group was significantly higher than that in the VATS group (P<0.001), and the white blood cell count and neutrophilic granulocyte percentage on the first day after operation in the RATS group were lower than those in the VATS group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The operative time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative hospital stay, white blood cell count and neutrophil percentage on the third postoperative day, visual analogue scale score on the first and third postoperative days, duration of analgesic pump use, postoperative 12 h oxygen saturation (no oxygen inhalation), postoperative down bed time, total thoracic drainage volume, duration of drainage tube retention, and postoperative complication rates were not statistically different between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no perioperative death, conversion to thoracotomy or serious perioperative complications in both groups. Conclusion RATS resection of posterior mediastinal tumor via lateral thoracic approach is safe and feasible, and its short-term effect is similar to that of VATS via lateral thoracic single-hole approach. It is worth further comparative study to explore its benefit and cost performance.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine in pain management early after laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).Methods Ninety patients with LC under general anesthesia,42 males and 48 females,aged 18-78 years,BMI 18-28 kg/m2,ASA physical statusⅠorⅡ,were selected and randomly divided into two groups by random num-ber table method:the acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine group(group AK)and the nal-buphine group(group NA),45 patients in each group.Group AK received 500 mg(diluted to 50 ml)of acetaminophen injection and 30 mg of ketorolac tromethamine(diluted to 10 ml)injection pumped 15 mi-nutes before induction of anesthesia,and group NA received 50 ml of NS injection and 0.2 mg/kg of nalbu-phine(diluted to 10 ml)injection pumped at the same time.Postoperative pain was recorded 0.5,3,6,12,and 24 hours after surgery using VAS pain scores(the non-inferiority boundary Δ = 1.0 score).The sleep quality score on the night of surgery,the number of remedial analgesia cases within 24 hours after sur-gery,the Ramsay sedation score 0.5,3,and 6 hours after surgery,the occurrence of adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting within 24 hours after surgery,and the overall satisfaction of patients were recorded.Results Compared with group NA,the VAS pain scores 0.5 hour after surgery was reduced in group AK(P＜0.05).The sleep quality score and overall satisfaction in group AK were significantly higher than those in group NA(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the rate of remedial analgesia,the score of Ramsay sedation at different time points and the incidence of nausea and vomiting within 24 hours after surgery between the two groups.Conclusion Acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine is not less effective than nalbuphine in relieving early postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy without increasing the incidence of nausea and vomiting.Patients receiving acetaminophen combined with ketorolac tromethamine have higher sleep quality scores on the night of surgery and overall satisfaction.

Objective: To identify the social ecological factors of individual, family, and physical environments for affecting the development of fundamental motor skills (FMS) among overweight and obese children, so as to provide a basis for the future intervention design and policy making. Methods: From March to April 2022, one public primary school was recruited from each of the 4 main urban areas in Shijiazhuang, and a total of 425 children in schools were recruited for data collection including individual, family, physical environmental factors, by using a stratified cluster random sampling approach. Test of Gross Motor Development-Third Edition (TGMD-3) was used to evaluate children s FMS. Hierarchical linear regression model was employed to analysis the associations between the 18 factors for individual, family, and physical environments, and the FMS of overweight and obese children. Results: Individual level including the child s age, gender and sleep duration, and family level including high family economic level, parental support for physical activity, and the physical activity environment surrounding the family and community were consistent predictors of movement skills ( B =0.422, -1.972, 0.014, 0.045, 1.042, 0.827, 1.898), ball skills ( B =0.858, 3.953, 0.013, 0.092, 2.141, 1.173, 1.954), and composite skills ( B =1.305, 1.915, 0.028, 0.142, 3.091, 1.962, 3.879) among overweight and obese children ( P <0.05). Furthermore, child s body mass index (BMI), moderate to vigorous physical activity, perceived motor competence, pleasure of exercise,as well as BMI and physical activity levels of their primary caregiver, were associated with different types of FMS ( P <0.05). Individual, family, and physical environmental factors had moderate to high predictive explanatory power for FMS among overweight and obese children ( 2=0.69, 0.75, 0.93, P <0.01). Conclusions The factors influencing the development of FMS in overweight and obese children are multifaceted, with individual, family, and physical environment factors all playing significant roles.Corresponding measures should be actively taken to improve FMS in overweight and obese children.

Mitophagy, a highly precise form of autophagy, plays a pivotal role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by selectively targeting and eliminating damaged mitochondria through a process known as mitophagy. Within this tightly regulated mechanism, dysfunctional mitochondria are specifically delivered to lysosomes for degradation. Disruptions in mitophagy have been implicated in a diverse range of pathological conditions, spanning diseases of the nervous system, cardiovascular system, cancer, aging, and metabolic syndrome. The elucidation of mitophagy’s impact on cardiovascular disorders, liver diseases, metabolic syndromes, immune dysfunctions, inflammatory conditions, and cancer has significantly advanced our understanding of the complex pathogenesis underlying these conditions. These studies have shed light on the intricate connections between dysfunctional mitophagy and disease progression. Among the disorders associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, insulin resistance (IR) stands out as a prominent condition linked to metabolic disorders. IR is characterized by a diminished response to normal levels of insulin, necessitating higher insulin levels to trigger a typical physiological reaction. Hyperinsulinemia and metabolic disturbances often coexist with IR, primarily due to defects in insulin signal transduction. Oxidative stress, stemming from mitochondrial dysfunction, exerts dual effects in the context of IR. Initially, it disrupts insulin signaling pathways and subtly contributes to the development of IR. Additionally, by inducing mitochondrial damage and autophagy, oxidative stress indirectly impedes insulin signaling pathways. Consequently, mitophagy acts as a protective mechanism, encapsulating damaged or dysfunctional mitochondria through the autophagy-lysosome pathway. This efficient process eliminates excessive oxidative stress reactive. The intricate interplay between mitochondrial function, oxidative stress, mitophagy, and IR represents a captivating field of investigation in the realm of metabolic disorders. By unraveling the underlying complexities and comprehending the intricate relationships between these intertwined processes, researchers strive toward uncovering novel therapeutic strategies. With a particular focus on mitochondrial quality control and the maintenance of redox homeostasis, these interventions hold tremendous potential in mitigating IR and enhancing overall metabolic health. Emerging evidence from a myriad of studies has shed light on the active involvement of mitophagy in the pathogenesis of metabolic disorders. Notably, interventions such as exercise, drug therapies, and natural products have been documented to induce mitophagy, thereby exerting beneficial effects on metabolic health through the activation of diverse signaling pathways. Several pivotal signaling molecules, including AMPK, PINK1/Parkin, BNIP3/Nix, and FUNDC1, have been identified as key regulators of mitophagy and have been implicated in the favorable outcomes observed in metabolic disorders. Of particular interest is the unique role of PINK1/Parkin in mitophagy compared to other proteins involved in this process. PINK1/Parkin exerts influence on mitophagy through the ubiquitination of outer mitochondrial membrane proteins. Conversely, BNIP3/Nix and FUNDC1 modulate mitophagy through their interaction with LC3, while also displaying certain interrelationships with each other. In this comprehensive review, our objective is to investigate the intricate interplay between mitophagy and IR, elucidating the relevant signaling pathways and exploring the treatment strategies that have garnered attention in recent years. By assimilating and integrating these findings, we aim to establish a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted roles and intricate mechanisms by which mitophagy influences IR. This endeavor, in turn, seeks to provide novel insights and serve as a catalyst for further research in the pursuit of innovative treatments targeting IR.
