Neurocritical care involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms, and its incidence is higher, injuries are more severe, and treatment is more challenging in high-altitude environments. This consensus, based on the latest domestic and international evidence-based medical data, establishes a standardized, goal-oriented framework for neurocritical care management applicable in high-altitude regions and nationwide. The consensus was developed following international standards for evidence quality assessment and underwent two rounds of Delphi expert consultation, resulting in 32 recommendation statements covering three parts: management systems, monitoring and assessment, and core strategies. Key updates include: advocating for the establishment of independent neurocritical care units and implementing precise tiered diagnosis and treatment based on the "Five Differences in Critical Care" concept; constructing a "trinity" multimodal brain monitoring system centered on cerebral blood flow, cerebral oxygenation, and brain function, emphasizing routine bedside transcranial Doppler ultrasound, cerebral oximetry, and continuous electroencephalography monitoring; shifting management strategies from mild hypothermia therapy to targeted temperature management, and defining the "446" target management pathway for the supercritical stage; emphasizing the assessment of static and dynamic cerebrovascular autoregulation functions through multimodal methods to achieve individualized optimal mean arterial pressure management; elevating cerebrospinal fluid management goals to the level of "glymphatic system" function maintenance; implementing a multidisciplinary collaborative, whole-process management model focusing on patients' long-term neurological functional outcomes; de-escalation criteria include multidimensional indicators such as recovery of brain structure, restoration of cerebrovascular autoregulation, improvement in cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, and reduction in biomarker levels; and integrating cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence into post-critical care management and rehabilitation planning. This consensus systematically integrates the entire process of neurocritical care management, reflecting the modern connotation of goal-oriented, dynamic, and multimodal integration in neurocritical care medicine. It aims to adapt to new trends such as deepening understanding of pathophysiological mechanisms, the integration of medicine and engineering, and the empowerment of artificial intelligence, thereby further advancing the discipline of critical care medicine.

Objective To investigate the regulatory mechanism of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in different types of mitral valvular disease (MVD) with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods From August 2011 to August 2012, patients with moderate to severe MVD accompanied by AF who required mitral valve replacement at the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, were included. Based on echocardiographic results, patients were divided into two groups: a mitral regurgitation (MR) with AF (MR-AF) group and a mitral stenosis (MS) with AF (MS-AF) group. Left atrial tissue samples were collected during surgery. Techniques such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, immunohistochemistry, and Western blotting were used to detect key molecules in the TGF-β1/JNK pathway. Results Sixteen patients were enrolled. There were 8 patients in the MR-AF group, including 5 males and 3 females, with an average age of (41.38±11.19) years; and 8 patients in the MS-AF group, including 6 males and 2 females, with an average age of (43.12±5.30) years. The left atrial volume load was higher in MR-AF patients, while the left atrial pressure load was higher in MS-AF patients. In MS-AF patients, the relative expression levels of MAPK9, JUN, CASP3, BAX, and BCL2 mRNA in left atrial tissues were significantly upregulated. The serum TGF-β1 protein level and the relative expression levels of p-JNK, p-c-Jun, and Caspase-3 proteins in the left atrial tissues of the MR-AF group were higher. Myocardial cell damage was more severe in the MS-AF group, and the protein expression level of Bcl-2 was higher. Conclusion Different MVD have distinct hemodynamic characteristics. The myocardium of the left atrium in MR-AF patients is more prone to apoptosis, possibly through the activation of the TGF-β1/JNK signaling pathway.

In the context of the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， the inheritance of the experiences of famous doctors faces significant challenges due to its complex nonlinear characteristics and dynamic evolution. There are still issues in the current inheritance system， such as the homogenization of talent cultivation models， lack of standardized mentoring practices， and monotonous evaluation method， which hinder the systematic inheritance and innovative development of famous doctors' experiences. Based on a systematic review of the current state of artificial intelligence （AI）-assisted inheritance of famous doctors' experiences， this study explores innovative pathways for deep integration of modern information technologies with famous doctors' experiences from key dimensions， including data authenticity assurance， interdisciplinary collaboration mechanisms， and the establishment of dynamic inheritance standards. It proposes a paradigm shift in the inheritance of TCM famous doctors' experiences in the AI era， aiming to build a new TCM inheritance system of "digital intelligence empowerment and cross-disciplinary innovation"， providing theoretical support and practical pathways for the inheritance of famous doctors' experiences in TCM.

To report two cases of psychiatric symptoms associated with zonisamide, an antiepileptic drug, and raise clinical awareness of this potential adverse effect. Two male patients with epilepsy treated with zonisamide were retrospectively analyzed. Case 1 (25 years old) developed acute emotional and behavioral abnormalities (e.g., insomnia, aggression, incoherent speech) after switching from sodium valproate to zonisamide (200 mg/day). Case 2 (48 years old) had long-term zonisamide use (≥5 years) with persistent treatment-resistant psychotic symptoms (e.g., delusions, command hallucinations). Clinical courses, medication adjustments, and symptom responses were documented. In Case 1, psychiatric symptoms resolved after discontinuing zonisamide and switching to sodium valproate, with improved mood stability and reduced impulsivity. In Case 2, despite escalating antipsychotic medications (risperidone, clozapine), psychotic symptoms persisted, likely due to ongoing zonisamide use. Both cases highlighted zonisamide’s potential to exacerbate or induce psychiatric manifestations, possibly via mechanisms involving sodium/calcium channel inhibition and neurotransmitter dysregulation (e.g., dopamine, serotonin). Zonisamide can cause or worsen psychiatric symptoms, particularly in vulnerable individuals. Clinicians should monitor for mental health changes during zonisamide treatment and consider drug discontinuation or substitution with alternative antiepileptics (e.g., sodium valproate) if psychiatric adverse effects emerge. Awareness of this association is crucial to avoid misdiagnosis and optimize epilepsy management.

OBJECTIVE To provide scientific reference for perfecting the record-filing management policy of traditional Chinese medicine preparations formulated via traditional processes for medical applications （hereinafter referred to as “TCM preparations”） in medical institutions， and further promote the sound development of the research and record-filing work of such preparations. METHODS A literature review combined with cross-sectional research was carried out. We collected policy documents and preparation information related to the record-filing of TCM preparations issued by national and provincial drug administration authorities on official websites during 2018-2025. A comparative analysis was conducted on the implementation and revision of core policy documents for the registration management of TCM preparations across provinces， the scope of record-filing dosage forms， conditions for rejection of record-filing， and exemptions for registration materials. Statistical analysis on the quantity and dosage forms of record-filing preparations in each province was conducted by means of data induction and trend chart plotting， and targeted suggestions were put forward to optimize the management pathway of record-filing. RESULTS CONCLUSIONS There was obvious heterogeneity in record-filing policies among provinces. Twelve provinces refined the applicable dosage forms for record-filing， fifteen provinces supplemented conditions for rejection of record-filing （16 items in total）， and nine provinces expanded the scope of material exemptions. The number of recorded preparations presented a striking regional imbalance：Qinghai had the largest quantity of 4 269 varieties， while Hainan only had 14 varieties， with a gap of more than 300 times. The recorded preparations were mainly traditional dosage forms including pills （6 928 varieties） and powders （4 360 varieties）. Only 12 provinces formulated the provincial catalog for TCM preparations allocation. In most regions， preparation circulation was only permitted within medical consortia， leading to a low transformation rate of scientific and technological achievements of preparations. It is recommended to optimize the record-filing management pathway from three aspects： strengthening policy standardization while maintaining flexibility， streamlining record-filing procedures and documentary requirements， and reinforcing technical support and achievement transformation. These measures can reduce regional policy differences， improve work efficiency of record-filing， and advance the standardized development and clinical value transformation of hospital-made TCM preparations.

OBJECTIVE To identify the active components of Desmodium styracifolium （Osb.） Merr. extract （DME） against cholestatic liver injury （CLI）， and to verify its target and molecular mechanism， so as to provide scientific evidence for the clinical application of D.styracifolium （Osb.） Merr. and the development of new hepatoprotective agents.METHODS High-performance liquid chromatography was applied to establish fingerprints of 19 batches of DME， followed by similarity evaluation and identification of common peaks. An in vitro CLI model was constructed by lithocholic acid （LCA）-induced injury in HepG2 cells to evaluate the in vitro protective effect of DME against CLI. Spearman correlation analysis， grey relational analysis and partial least-squares regression analysis were adopted to investigate the spectrum-effect relationship of DME against CLI and preliminarily screen the core active components. Molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance technology were used to predict and verify the binding capacity between core active components and farnesoid X receptor （FXR）. qRT-PCR， Western blot and immunofluorescence staining tests were performed to validate the influences of core active components on the expression of molecules related to FXR/bile salt export pump （BSEP） pathway in CLI model cells.RESULTS A total of 12 common peaks were calibrated in the fingerprints of 19 batches of DME， and the similarity values were all above 0.990. Four common peaks were identified， namely peak 6 （schaftoside）， peak 7 （isoorientin）， peak 11 （isoschaftoside） and peak 12 （isovitexin）. DME at 80 μg/mL exerted the optimal protective effect on CLI-model cells， and the cell viability reached （75.66±4.60）% after 24 h of treatment. Spectrum-effect analysis revealed that schaftoside possessed the strongest correlation with the anti-CLI activity of DME and served as the core active component. Target prediction and validation results showed that the binding energy between schaftoside and FXR was －8.1 kcal/mol， and the equilibrium dissociation constant was 27.3 μmol/L. Mechanistic experiments demonstrated that 100 μmol/L schaftoside significantly elevated the expression levels of FXR and BSEP， and mRNA of their encoded genes Nr1h4 ， Abcb11 in CLI-model cells （ P ＜0.05）.CONCLUSIONS Schaftoside may be the core active component of DME against CLI， and its mechanism may be related to the activation of FXR/BSEP pathway.

Objective To analyze the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-3(VEGFR3)and adaptor protein containing PH domain,PTB domain,and leucine zipper motif 1(APPL1)in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)and their relationship with clinical pathology.Methods A total of 100 patients with NSCLC admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected as the study objects,and the NSCLC tissues and adjacent tissues of the patients were collected.The expression of VEGFR3 and APPL1 was detected by immunohistochemistry,and the relationship between VEGFR3 and APPL1 expression and clinical pathology of patients was analyzed,as well as the predictive value of VEGFR3 and APPL1 for prognosis of patients with NSCLC.Results The posi-tive rates of VEGFR3 and APPL1 in NSCLC tissues and adjacent tissues were significantly different(P<0.05).The positive rate of VEGFR3 was significantly different in patients with different histological type,lymph node metastasis and tumor invasion(P<0.05).The positive rate of APPL1 was significantly different in patients with different histological type and tumor invasion(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that VEGFR3 was positively correlated with APPL1 expression(r=0.330,P<0.05).The relative expression levels of VEGFR3 and APPL1 in death group were higher than those in survival group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of relative expression levels of VEGFR3 and APPL1 to predict the prognosis of NSCLC patients was 0.843(95%CI:0.757-0.908)and 0.799(95%CI:0.707-0.872).Conclusion The ex-pression of VEGFR3 and APPL1 in NSCLC patients is related to their clinical pathological features.The relative ex-pression levels of VEGFR3 and APPL1 are of great value in predicting the prognosis of NSCLC patients.

Objective To analyze the effect of Hsa-circ-0101216 on gemcitabine(GEM)chemotherapy resistance in pancreatic cancer and its mechanism.Methods Differentially expressed circRNAs between GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells and parent cells were screened using the GEO database.Pancreatic cancer GEM resistant cell lines(BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM)were constructed by intermittent concentration gradient method.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Hsa-circ-0101216 in cells.GEM resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines were taken and divided into sh-circ-0101216 group(knockdown of circ-0101216),sh-NC group(transfected with sh-NC),and blank control group(untreated).CCK-8 assay and EdU proliferation assay were used to detect the half inhibitory concentration(IC50)of GEM and proliferation ability of cells in each group.Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of multidrug resistance-related protein 1(MRP1),breast cancer resistance protein(BCRP),and human equilibrative nucleoside transporter-1(hENT-1).A subcutaneous xenograft tumor model of human pancreatic cancer in nude mice was constructed,and sh-NC+GEM group and sh-circ-0101216+GEM group(n=6)were set up.The volume and weight of xenograft tumor in nude mice were compared between the two groups.Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression of MRP1,BCRP,and hENT-1 proteins in xenograft tumor tissues,and EDU proliferation assay was used to detect the proliferation ability of tumor cells.Results The GEO database screening showed that Hsa-circ-0101216 was up-regulated in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines.Pancreatic cancer GEM-resistant cell lines were successfully constructed,and the expression levels of Hsa-circ-0101216 and the IC50 value in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM were significantly higher than those in parental cells(P<0.05).In sh-circ-0101216 group,the IC50 values of GEM,cell viability,EdU positivity rate,and the expression levels of MRP1 and BCRP proteins in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM were significantly lower than those in blank control group and sh-NC group,while the expression level of hENT-1 protein was significantly higher(P<0.05 or P<0.001).In sh-circ-0101216+GEM group,the weight and volume of subcutaneous xenograft tumors in nude mice,the expression levels and positive expression rates of MRP1 and BCRP proteins in tumor tissues,and the EdU positive rate were significantly lower than those in sh-NC+GEM group,while the expression level and positive expression rate of hENT-1 protein were significantly higher(P<0.05).Conclusions Hsa-circ-0101216 is highly expressed in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines.Its knockdown can inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and enhance the chemosensitivity of pancreatic cancer cells to GEM.The mechanism may be related to the regulation of transmembrane transporter protein expression.

Objective To explore whether creatine therapy regulates neuronal ferroptosis by inhibiting the activation of STAT1 signaling pathway associated with suppressor of cytokine signaling 1(SOCS1)in Alzheimer's disease.Methods Immunohistochemical staining and counting of positive results using paraffin sections of human brain frontal lobes were employed to determine the trend of changes in the target proteins.Further validation was performed by immunofluorescence and Western blotting.STAT1 phosphorylation was inhibited by creatine injection using eleven FAD4T mice and by cerebellar medullary pool puncture,and the expression of target proteins was examined by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence after postmortem sampling.Results Compared with the age controls,interferon-γ(IFN-γ),an activating cytokine of the STAT1 signaling pathway,and SOCS1,a negative regulator of STAT1 activation,were both significantly up-regulated,STAT1 phosphorylation was enhanced,and the ferroptosis markers ferritin light chain(FTL)and cystine/glutamate transporter(xCT)increased markedly in the cortex of AD human brains;Creatine treatment of FAD4T mice resulted in a reduction of both IFN-γ and SOCS1,and a significant decrease in the ferroptosis markers FTL and xCT(SLC7A11).Conclusion Creatine ameliorates neuronal ferroptosis in AD model mice by reducing neuronal STAT1-SOCS1 signalling activation.
