The life view of physique-qi-spirit trinity is the core theory for explaining the physiological activities of human body and the evolution of disease pathology in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),and will bring about an overview of TCM tumorigenesis.This paper explores the biological basis of tumor from the perspective of disorders of physique,qi and spirit:there is a correlation between qi-physique transformation and energy and substance metabolism,and between spirit-emotion and neuromodulation;the nerve-metabolism pathway contributes to partial biological basis of tumor from the perspective of disorders of physique,qi and spirit.Furthermore,it puts forward the strategies for prevention and treatment with TCM through the simultaneous regulation of physique,qi and spirit:eliminating the mass to inhibit the tumor,and improving physique to preserve life in the view of treating physique;replenishing qi to strengthen the body,and ventilating qi to remove toxins in the view of treating qi;regulating the spirit to treat cancer through comprehensive therapy in the view of treating spirit.The exploration on the biological basis of tumor from the perspective of disorders of physique,qi and spirit will further embody the unique advantages of TCM theories in understanding malignant tumors,and will provide useful references for the model of synergistic prevention and treatment of malignant tumors with TCM.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the expression regulation of lipid metabolism gene ABHD5 in testes. METHODS: Differential gene analysis was performed by integrating databases of TCGA and GTEx to identify the target gene ABHD5. The expression trends of ABHD5 gene in testicular carcinoma tissue were analyzed. Human testis single-cell atlases were obtained from the Human Protein Atlas and Male Health Atlas databases to determine the expression distribution of ABHD5 across different testicular cell types. Additionally, the GTEx database was utilized to visualize the expression pattern of ABHD5 in the testis, thereby enhancing the understanding of its transcriptional profile. The relationship between ABHD5 expression and age was assessed through integrated database analysis. Western blotting and immunofluorescence were performed to detect differential expressions of ABHD5 in testicular tissues of young and aged mice respectively. RESULTS: The TCGA database indicated that the expression of ABHD5 in human testicular carcinoma tissue was significantly lower than that in normal testicular tissue which showed a negative correlation with patient survival. ABHD5 was highly expressed in germ cells of the testis reveaked from Human Protein Atlas and Male Health Atlas databases. The stability of ABHD5 protein was crucial for testicular tissue, and its expression decreased with age. Furthermore, Western blot and immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that ABHD5 expression in the testicular tissue of aged mice was significantly lower than that in young mice. CONCLUSION ABHD5 plays an important role in testicular tissue, and may be inseparable from testicular tumors and reproductive aging. However, its mechanism of action remains to be further studied.

Objective To investigate the effect of microplastic(MPs)exposure on learning and memory in mice,and its mechanism by observing the protein expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)/tyrosine receptor kinase B(TrkB)/N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subtype 2B(NR2B)signaling pathway and neurogenesis.Methods Forty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group(Ctrl)and microplastics exposure group(MPs).Mice in MPs group were treated with 0.3 mg/(kg·d)microplastics,administered by gavage at a volume of 200 μl for 30 consecutive days.Morris water maze test was used to evaluate the spatial learning and memory ability of mice.Western blotting was used to detect the protein levels of BDNF,TrkB and NR2B in hippocampus of mice.Immunofluorescent staining was used to observe the number of doublecortin(DCX)and neuronal nuclei antigen(NeuN)positive cells in the hippocampus of mice to evaluate hippocampal neurogenesis.Results Compared with the control group,the ability of learning and memory decreased significantly in MPs group mice(P＜0.01).The expression levels of BDNF,TrkB and NR2B in the hippocampus of MPs group mice were significantly lower than those of control group(P＜0.05).The number of DCX and NeuN positive cells in the hippocampus of MPs group was significantly lower than that of control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion MPs exposure induces learning and memory impairment which may be related to inhibiting BDNF/TrkB/NR2B signaling pathway and reducing hippocampal neurogenesis.

Ketamine,an antagonist of the glutamate N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA)receptor,is cur-rently one of the most widely abused psychoactive substances.Prolonged abuse can result in damages to various systems in the body,making it crucial to investigate the regulatory mechanism of ketamine addic-tion and screening related biomarkers.In this study,zebrafish embryos/larvae were initially exposed a-cutely to ketamine.Then,a ketamine addiction model was established in 6-month-old zebrafish through conditioned place preference(CPP)experiments.The zebrafish brain transcriptome was analyzed using RNA-seq,while qPCR and Western blotting were employed to detect the expression of key genes.Results revealed significant reductions in the spontaneous tail coiling,embryo hatching rate,and survival rate of zebrafish embryos in the ketamine-treated group compared to the control group.The distance moved also decreased significantly,from 1904.2 mm in the control group to 319.0 mm in the high dose of ketamine group(300 μmol/L).Conditional positional preference experiments demonstrated that the control ze-brafish did not exhibit significant changes in activity in the CPP tank.In contrast,the ketamine-treated group increased their activity time in the light zone of the tank from 385.2 s before training to 706.4 s af-ter training,representing a 26.8％increase(***P＜0.001).This suggests a preference for ketamine stimulation in zebrafish.KEGG analysis indicated enrichment of differentially expressed genes in the neu-roactive ligand-receptor interaction pathway in the ketamine-treated samples.GSEA analysis further re-veals a significant upregulation of the glutamatergic synapse pathway(NES=1.5).In addition,compared with the control group,the mRNA levels of Grin2b and Gria2 in the ketamine group increased by 4.6 and 1.4 times,respectively,while the protein levels increased by 2.0 and 1.4 times,respectively.These findings suggest that ketamine can induce addiction in zebrafish,potentially through upregulation of the glutamatergic synaptic pathway.

Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 6 (SRSF6) is a member of the serine and arginine-rich (SR) protein family,and it plays a crucial regulatory role in RNA splicing.Dysregulation of SRSF6 ex-pression or function can lead to aberrant alternative splicing of certain genes,and contribute to the devel-opment and progression of inflammatory diseases,including tumors,diabetes,and pleural fibrosis.How-ever,the role of SRSF6 in inflammation remains unclear.In this study,we found that the expression of inflammatory factors,including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2),was induced by lipopolysaccharides (LPS) .Concurrently,both the levels of SRSF6 mRNA and protein ex-pression significantly increased with prolonged LPS stimulation (P<0.05) .Furthermore,we investigated the change of SRSF6 expression on the expression of inflammatory factors.The results showed that upreg-ulation of SRSF6 enhanced the expression of LPS-induced inflammatory factors (P<0.05),while down-regulation of SRSF6 inhibited their expression (P<0.05) .Additionally,the activation of the nuclear fac-tor-κB (NF-κB) and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways was suppressed by SRSF6 knockdown (P<0.05),indicating that SRSF6 is involved in regulating inflammatory responses in macrophages.Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) is a key adaptor protein in the TLR4 signaling pathway,with its splicing isoforms MyD88-L and MyD88-S exerting pro-inflammatory and anti-inflamma-tory effects,respectively.Analysis of RNA-binding protein database and RNA immunoprecipitation showed that SRSF6 binds to MyD88 mRNA.Splicing analysis indicated that downregulation of SRSF6 promoted the expression of the anti-inflammatory MyD88-S mRNA isoform (P<0.01) .Moreover,knock-down of MyD88-S could rescue the expression of inflammatory factors suppressed by SRSF6 downregula-tion.These findings suggest that SRSF6 regulates MyD88 alternative splicing in macrophages,thereby af-fecting the activation of inflammatory signaling pathways and the expression of inflammatory factors.This study provides a foundation for further elucidating the role of SRSF6 in inflammatory diseases.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of tension-type headache(TTH)in children and adolescents aged 0-19 years globally in 1990-2021,and to provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of TTH.Methods Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study data,the age-standardized prevalence distribution of TTH and its changing trend were analyzed among the children and adolescents aged 0-19 years,with different sexes,age groups,sociodemographic index(SDI)regions and countries/territories.Results The age-standardized prevalence rate(ASPR)of TTH in children and adolescents aged 0-19 globally in 2021 was 17 339.89/100 000,which was increased by 1.73%since 1990.The ASPR in females was slightly higher than that in males(1990:17 707.65/100 000 vs 16 403.78/100 000;2021:17 946.29/100 000 vs 16 763.09/100 000).The ASPR in adolescence was significantly higher than that in school-aged and preschool periods(1990:27 672.04/100 000 vs 10 134.16/100 000;2021:28 239.04/100 000 vs 10 059.39/100 000).Regions with high SDI exhibited a higher ASPR than the other regions,with significant differences in prevalence rates across different countries.From 1990 to 2021,there was a slight increase in global ASPR,with an average annual percentage change(AAPC)of 0.06%.Females experienced a smaller increase than males based on AAPC(0.04%vs 0.07%).There was reduction in ASPR in preschool and school-aged groups,with an AAPC of-0.02%,while there was a significant increase in ASPR in adolescence,with an AAPC of 0.07%.ASPR decreased in regions with low-middle and low levels of SDI,with an AAPC of-0.02%and-0.04%,respectively,while it increased in regions with middle SDI,with an AAPC of 0.24%.Conclusions There is a consistent increase in the ASPR of TTH in children and adolescents aged 0-19 years globally,with significant differences across sexes,age groups,SDI regions and countries/territories.

Objective To explore the factors influencing the prognosis of patients with Resectable gastric adenocarcinoma with vascular cancer thrombus(RGAVCT)and to develop a relevant columnar graphic prognostic model.Methods Clinicopathologic data of 530 patients with gastric adenocarcinoma combined with vascular cancer embolization who underwent radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were retrospectively collected from January 2017 to January 2022,and were randomly assigned to the training cohort and the validation cohort in a 7∶3 ratio.Kaplan-Meier curves and Log-rank test and multifactorial Cox regression were used to analyze the risk factors for death in the training cohort patients,and to construct Nomogram Model for the probability of survival at 1,2,and 4 years in RGAVCT patients.ROC curves were used to analyze the efficacy of the Nomogram model in the training cohort and validation cohort patients.Results Age,postoperative chemotherapy,tumor size,Ki67 expression status,T-stage,N-stage,and clinical stage of patients in the training cohort were the influencing factors on survival(OS)of patients with RGAVCT(P＜0.05);postoperative chemotherapy(P＜0.001,HR=0.302,95％CI:0.219-0.418),T-stage[T3(P=0.015,HR=11.782,95％CI:1.628-85.283),T4a+4b(P=0.005,HR=17.219,95％CI:2.343-126.559)],N staging[N2(P=0.309,HR=1.310,95％CI:0.779-2.201)N3a(P=0.001,HR=2.268,95％CI:1.407-3.657),N3b(P＜0.001,HR=2.836,95％CI:1.708-4.709)]were independent influences on OS in patients with RGAVCT.Cox regression results were used to develop nomogram models for predicting the probability of patients'survival at 1,2,and 4 years after surgery.The AUROC area and C index were＞0.7 for the training cohort and＞0.67 for the validation cohort.Conclusion In this study,we developed a nomogram model of 1-,2-,and 4-year postoperative survival probabilities of RGAVCT patients,which can better predict the postoperative survival of RGAVCT patients.

Most patients with differentiated thyroid cancer have a good prognosis after radioiodine-131 therapy,but a small number of patients are insensitive to radioiodine-131 therapy and even continue to develop disease.At present,some targeted drugs can improve progression-free survival in patients with radioactive iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer(RAIR-DTC),such as sorafenib and levatinib,have been approved for the treatment of RAIR-DTC.However,due to the presence of primary and acquired drug resistance,drug efficacy in these patients is unsatisfactory.This review introduces the acquired drug resistance mechanism of sorafenib in the regulation of mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase(PI3K)pathways and proposes related treatment strategies,in order to provide a reference for similar drug resistance mechanism of sorafenib and effective treatment of RAIR-DTC.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.
