ObjectiveTo explore the effects of Jingui Shenqiwan （JSW） and Liuwei Dihuangwan （LDW） on the reproductive ability and brain function of normal mice and compare the actions of the two medications. MethodsSeven groups of female and male mice were divided at a ratio of 2∶1. Except for the control group， the other six groups were as follows： a group of both males and females receiving JSW （3.0 g·kg^-1）， a group of both males and females receiving LDW （4.5 g·kg^-1）， a group of males receiving water and females receiving JSW， a group of males receiving water while females receiving LDW， a group of females receiving water while males receiving JSW， and a group of females receiving water while males receiving LDW. Each group was administered the drug for 14 days and then caged together at a 2∶1 （female∶male） ratio to detect the number of pregnant mice and calculate the pregnancy rate. Pregnant mice continued receiving the drug until they naturally gave birth， which was followed by the observation of newborn mice， calculation of their average number， and the measurement of the offspring's preference for sugar water and neonatal recognition index. At the end of the experiment， the weights of the thymus and spleen were measured to calculate the organ coefficients， and mRNA or protein expression was analyzed in the brain and testes or ovaries. A 1% sucrose solution was used to examine the euphoria of their brain reward systems， while novel object recognition test （NOR） was applied to assess their memory capabilities. mRNA expression was detected using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） assay， and protein expression was analyzed with Western blot. ResultsCompared with the control group， oral administration of JSW to both male and female mice for 14 days significantly increased the pregnancy rate of female mice on day 2 after being caged together （P<0.05）， while LDW showed a trend but no statistical significance. Additionally， compared with the control group， JSW could upregulate the gene expression of gonadotropin-releasing hormone （GnRH） in the thalamus， as well as reproductive stem cell factor （SCF） and tyrosine kinase receptor （c-Kit） in the testes and reproductive stem cell marker mouse vasa homologue （MVH） in the ovaries， upregulate the expression of proteins influencing neuronal functional activity， such as brain-derived neurotrophic factor （BDNF）， in hippocampal neurons （P<0.05）， and enhance sucrose preference in male mice （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group， JSW significantly increased sucrose preference and novel object recognition index in offspring mice （P<0.05）， which was related to the upregulation of hippocampal dopamine D1 receptor （D1R） and N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor （Nmdar） gene expression. Compared with the control group， both JSW and LDW could upregulate the protein expression of glucocorticoid receptor （GR）， BDNF， and tyrosine kinase receptor B （TrkB） in the hippocampus of offspring mice （P<0.05）. ConclusionJSW significantly enhances the reproductive ability of normal mice， which is not only related to the release of gonadotropin but also associated with its regulation of brain function. Additionally， JSW has a certain regulatory effect on the brain function of the offspring mice.

AIM: To detect the distribution and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in radiation retinopathy(RR)through fluorescence targeted imaging.METHODS:Covalent binding of fluorescein FITC with VEGF antibody ranibizumab to prepare targeted fluorescent imaging probe ranibizumab-FITC. SD rats were randomly divided into three groups based on the principle of weight balance: a normal control group(Con group), a low-dose radiation group(10 Gy group), and a high-dose radiation group(30 Gy group). Medical linear accelerators and lead blocks were used to locally irradiate the rat eyeballs for modeling. Western blot and qRT-PCR were used to detect the expression levels of VEGF-A in each group and to screen for appropriate modeling dose. The inverted fluorescence microscope and the confocal microscope were used to observe the distribution of VEGF and imaging probes in the retinas of control and RR model group rats, and to verify the effectiveness of targeted probes.RESULTS:The expression level of VEGF-A in the retina of rats in the high-dose radiation group(30 Gy group)was higher than that in the normal control group(Con group). In early RR, VEGF expression was observed to be associated with microaneurysms and abnormal microvessels in the retina. VEGF accumulation was observed at the site of capillary wall damage. When retinal capillary endothelial damage occurred, targeted probes gathered on the outer surface of the vessel wall.CONCLUSION:The expression level of VEGF in the retina of RR model rats is elevated, and fluorescent targeted molecular imaging probes can detect the spatial distribution of VEGF at the microvascular lesions in the retina of RR rats.

This paper proposes a two-stage method integrating visual foundation models （VFM） and diffusion models. The segment anything model （SAM） as VFM is combined with the SegRefiner diffusion model to construct the SAM-SegRefiner framework for automated segmentation of edema， inflammation， and thrombus regions in histopathological images of hemorrhoidal tissue， providing a reproducible technical tool for the objective quantification of pathological morphology and its application in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome research. Trained and validated on multi-center retrospective data， the SAM-SegRefiner model achieved an average pixel accuracy of 95.32% and a mean intersection over union （mIoU） of 66.81% on an independent test set， significantly outperfor-ming comparative models such as U-Net， MixU-Net， and SAM-Med2D， and also demonstrating robust cross-center generalization capability. Furthermore， by correlating the quantitatively segmented results from the model with the patients' TCM syndrome types， the potential associations between pathomorphological features and TCM syndrome differentiation have been explored. The analysis revealed no statistically significant differences in the degree of inflammatory infiltration and thrombus formation among different syndrome types， suggesting a complex relationship between local pathological changes and systemic syndrome manifestations.

Objective: To report the clinical data of two patients with prostatic hyperplasia and bladder uric acid stones，so as to provide reference for clinical practice. Methods: Clinical data of two patients successfully undergoing blue laser lithotripsy in Department of Urology，Zhenba County People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed，including clinical manifestations，surgical methods，treatment outcomes and complications. Results: Both patients sought medical care due to progressive dysuria or hematuria.B ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging confirmed bladder calculi and prostatic hyperplasia.One patient also had large blood clots in the bladder cavity.Both patients received transurethral blue laser prostate vaporization + transurethral bladder stone holmium laser lithotripsy.The stone surface was dark yellow，with no obvious pores，fine particles or spike protrusion.Blue laser produced an “ablative” phenomenon similar to vaporization，and then stones became smaller and fragmented.The lithotripsy lasted for 11 min and 8 min，respectively.There were multiple bladder mucosal injuries due to constant drift of stones during operation.Stone composition analysis suggested uric acid stones.After 3 months of follow-up，both patients had smooth postoperative urination，good urine control，and no stone recurrence. Conclusion: Blue laser can be applied to crush uric acid stones，and the bladder mucosa should be protected during lithotripsy.

Human immunodeficiency virus（HIV）entry inhibitors are important in preventing HIV infection by specifically targeting viral envelope proteins（gp120/gp41）or host receptors（CD4/CCR5/CXCR4）to inhibit HIV entry into host cells. This article systematically reviews the research progress of HIV entry inhibitors in recent years，and some of the novel inhibitors such as Fostemsavir，Ibalizumab，and bifunctional fusion inhibitors（2P23-iMab）have shown better effects in inhibiting multidrug-resistant strains. Although great progress has been made in the research and development of HIV entry inhibitors，there are still a series of challenges including drug resistance，drug limitation，target toxicity，which limit their widespread clinical application. Future research directions should focus on multi-target combination strategies，broad-spectrum neutralizing antibody development，and long-term design. In summary，the analyses on the research progress，challenges and future development directions of HIV entry inhibitors will provide a reference for the further research and development and optimization of HIV entry inhibitors，and then promote the development of AIDS prevention and control.

Exosome play a crucial role in human immunodeficiency virus（HIV）infection. They share high similarities with HIV virions in physicochemical properties and secretion mechanisms：both the formation and secretion of exosome and the budding of HIV depend on the endosomal sorting complex required for transport（ESCRT）complex and VPS4 protein，with their membrane structures being phospholipid bilayers and comparable ranges of diameter and density. These similarities pose challenges to related research. Exosome participate in HIV infection through multiple mechanisms，including promoting HIV entry，inhibiting HIV replication，activating HIV latent reservoirs，and engaging in host antiviral immune responses. In terms of clinical applications，the potential of exosome as biomarkers or vaccine carriers has attracted attention，showing translational prospects. In summary，exosome influence the progression of HIV infection through complex mechanisms，and their application prospects in diagnostic markers，vaccine development，and therapeutic targets merit in-depth exploration.

BACKGROUND:Exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are widely used for bone repair and reconstruction,significantly enhancing osteogenesis and promoting angiogenesis.OBJECTIVE:To explore the mechanisms of exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of osteoporotic fractures.METHODS:H uman umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were extracted using tissue block culture method.Exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were extracted using ultracentrifugation method for identification.Thirty 12-week-old female SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operated group(n=6)and ovariectomized group(n=24).Osteoporosis model was established by castration in the ovariectomized group.12 weeks after modeling,6 rats in the ovariectomized group and 6 rats in the sham-operated group were randomly selected for Micro-CT and hematoxylin-eosin staining to verify the models.After verification,the remaining 18 rats in the ovariectomized group were randomly assigned to three groups to establish osteoporotic fracture models.The fracture end was separately injected with PBS(PBS group),exosomes at 1.5×1011 particles/mL(low-concentration exosome group),and 3×1011 particles/mL(high-concentration exosome group).Four weeks after operation,fracture healing and bone angiogenesis were evaluated by imaging and histological observations.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)In the gross specimens,compared with the PBS group,the exosome group had faster fracture healing and more callus formation.(2)The X-ray score of fracture healing in the exosome group was significantly higher than that in the PBS group,and the difference was significant(P＜0.05).(3)Micro-CT three-dimensional imaging:Compared with the PBS group,the fracture healing in the exosome group was accelerated and the callus formation was significantly increased;the bone volume fraction in the exosome group was significantly higher than that in the PBS group,and the difference was significant(P＜0.01).(4)Hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson's trichrome staining showed that bone trabeculae and the new bone tissue in the exosome group were more than those in the PBS group.(5)Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression of CD31 and osteocalcin in the exosome group was significantly higher than that in the PBS group.The high-concentration exosome group had a higher density of new blood vessels,more callus formation,and faster fracture healing than the low-concentration exosome group,showing a concentration-dependent manner.The results show that exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells can promote the repair of osteoporotic fracture by enhancing the angiogenesis and osteogenesis.The mechanism may be related to the increased expression of CD31 and osteocalcin.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors on the therapeutic effect of glucocorticoid impact in the treatment of active thyroid-related eye diseases.Methods:A total of 106 patients with thyroid-related eye disease admitted to Lishui People's Hospital from December 2020 to January 2024 were retrospectively selected, all of whom were treated with glucocorticoid impact therapy. According to the efficacy, they were divided into poor efficacy group (34 cases) and good efficacy group (72 cases), and relevant clinical data of the two groups were compared. Single factor and multiple factor Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors affecting the curative effect.Results:The proportion of smoking history in the poor efficacy group was higher than that in the good efficacy group:73.53% (25/34) vs. 29.17% (21/72), there was statistical difference ( χ2 = 18.50, P<0.01). The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and lymphocyte (LYM) in the poor efficacy group were lower than those in the good efficacy group: (0.08 ± 0.02) mU/L vs. (0.10 ± 0.02) mU/L, 0.175 ± 0.028 vs. 0.192 ± 0.031;the free triiodothyronine (FT 3), free thyroxine (FT 4), tumor necrosis factor - α (TNF- α), interleukin (IL) -6, IL-8, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), degree of proptosis, and clinical activity score (CAS) were higher than those in the good efficacy group: (5.28 ± 1.21) pmol/L vs. (4.73 ± 1.03) pmol/L, (15.52 ± 2.35) pmol/L vs. (14.28 ± 2.31) pmol/L, (11.82 ± 2.11) ng/L vs. (10.05 ± 2.04) ng/L, (2.12 ± 0.21) ng/L vs. (1.96 ± 0.18) ng/L, (38.56 ± 4.35) ng/L vs. (35.46 ± 4.21) ng/L, 2.52 ± 0.41 vs. 1.67 ± 0.37, (17.42 ± 2.44) mm vs. (15.32 ± 2.27) mm, (4.34 ± 0.65) scores vs. (3.98 ± 0.63) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking history, TSH, FT 3, FT 4, TNF-ɑ, IL-6, IL-8, LYM, NLR, exophthalmia and CAS score were all included in the regression equation, and they were all influential factors affecting the efficacy of glucocorticoid shock therapy for thyroid-related eye diseases ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In active thyroid-related eye disease patients receiving glucocorticoid impact therapy, the efficacy may be affected by many factors, and comprehensive intervention should be implemented according to the actual situation to further improve the efficacy.
