eIF3a is a N 6-methyladenosine (m6A) reader that regulates mRNA translation by recognizing m6A modifications of these mRNAs. It has been suggested that eIF3a may play an important role in regulating translation initiation via m6A during infection when canonical cap-dependent initiation is inhibited. However, the death of animal model studies impedes our understanding of the functional significance of eIF3a in immunity and regulation in vivo. In this study, we investigated the in vivo function of eIF3a using eIF3a knockout and knockdown mouse models and found that eIF3a deficiency resulted in splenic tissue structural disruption and multi-organ damage, which contributed to severe sepsis induced by Lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Ectopic eIF3a overexpression in the eIF3a knockdown mice rescued mice from LPS-induced severe sepsis. We further showed that eIF3a maintains a functional and healthy immune system by regulating B cell function and quantity through m6A modification of mRNAs. These findings unveil a novel mechanism underlying sepsis, implicating the pivotal role of B cells in this complex disease process regulated by eIF3a. Furthermore, eIF3a may be used to develop a potential strategy for treating sepsis.

As China's population rapidly ages,traditional family-centered and community-based elderly care models face significant challenges.Smaller family structures and greater population mobility have diminished familial care capacity and com-munity-based elderly care is hindered by systemic issues such as insufficient allocation of medical resources,shortages of nursing workforce,imbalances between supply and demand,and variability in service quality.A tertiary general public hospital has ana-lyzed the essential role of Party-building work in innovating and optimizing community and home-based elderly care mechanisms.Through collaboration across various sectors,the hospital has developed a tripartite model characterized by"Party-building gov-ernance,multi-stakeholder coordination,and technology-enhanced service integration,"effectively integrating medical and elder-ly care resources.This has facilitated high-quality development of community-and home-based elderly care services.

AIM: To explore the clinical efficacy of 25G minimally invasive vitrectomy combined with 41G ultra-micro subretinal injection of tissue plasminogen activator(t-PA)in the treatment of subretinal hemorrhage(SMH).METHODS: Retrospective study. A totally 60 patients(60 eyes)who visited the Ophthalmology Department of Yuebei People's Hospital from June 2022 to September 2024 and were diagnosed with submacular hemorrhage were selected. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into a control group of 30 eyes(25G vitrectomy combined with intravitreal injection of t-PA)and an observation group of 30 eyes(25G vitrectomy combined with 41G subretinal injection of t-PA). The complete clearance rate of macular hemorrhage, best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), changes in intraocular pressure, central retinal thickness(CRT), the occurrence of postoperative complications were observed in the two groups of patients.RESULTS:The two groups of general data are comparable. After treatment for 7 d, the rate of complete clearance of macular hemorrhage was higher in the observation group than in the control group(100% vs 80%, P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the comparison of BCVA at 1 d and 6 mo postoperatively(all P>0.05), and in the comparison of BCVA between the two groups at 7 d, 1, and 3 mo postoperatively, BCVA of the observation group was better than that of the control group(all P<0.05); and the intraocular pressure of the observation group was lower than that of the control group at 1 d, 7 d, and 1 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05), and there was no significant difference between the two groups in the comparison of intraocular pressure at 3 and 6 mo postoperatively(all P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the comparison of CRT at 1 d and 6 mo postoperatively(all P>0.05), and CRT was lower than that of the control group at 7 d, 1 and 3 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05). The total incidence of complications in the observation group was not statistically different from that in the control group(0 vs 10%, P>0.05).CONCLUSION: The 25G minimally invasive vitrectomy combined with 41G ultra-microsubretinal injection of t-PA is more efficient in removing subretinal hemorrhage, promotes early anatomical restoration, and has a comparable long-term visual prognosis to the conventional method, with a favorable safety profile.

Objective:To review the application of internet cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in perinatal women with negative emotions, point out the limitations of existing studies, and put forward development suggestions for future research.Methods:Using the Scope review guide published by Joanna Briggs Institute as the methodological framework, eight Chinese and English databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang, PubMed and Web of Science were searched until July 1, 2024, and the literatures were collected and analyzed.Results:A total of 18 literatures were included. The interventionists of internet cognitive behavioral therapy were mostly psychologists; the intervention methods were mostly in the form of partial participation of therapists, and the intervention platforms were mostly websites. The intervention content was centered on mental health education, emotional monitoring, cognitive reconstruction, behavioral activation training, and problem solving. There were 15 studies that demonstrated that internet cognitive behavioral therapy was effective, and three studies showed that internet cognitive behavioral therapy was not effective in improving negative emotions in perinatal women, but perinatal women responded to treatment.Conclusions:The Internet cognitive behavioral therapy can effectively improve the negative emotions of perinatal pregnant women, but the long-term effect is not clear. Future studies can expand the sample size and follow up the effect for a long time.
