OBJECTIVE To explore the action mechanism of kushenol F (KSCF) in treating ulcerative colitis (UC) in mice. METHODS The potential targets of KSCF intervening in UC were predicted with network pharmacology and molecular docking. C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided by body weight into model group, positive control group (sulfasalazine, 703 mg/kg), KSCF group (100 mg/kg), and normal group, with 6 mice per group. The UC model of mice was induced by dextran sulfate sodium solution. During the modeling period, the mice were given relevant medicine intragastrically, once a day, for 7 consecutive days. After the last administration, the disease activity index (DAI) of the mice was scored; the length of the mice’s colon was measured; pathological changes in the colon tissue of mice were observed; the levels of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in serum, myeloperoxidase (MPO), nitric oxide (NO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in the colon were detected in mice; the expression levels of occludin and ZO-1 in colon tissue of mice were detected; the proportions of CD3+T, CD4+T, and CD8+T lymphocytes in the spleen and the ratio of CD4+/CD8+ were detected; changes in colonic microbiota were analyzed by 16S rDNA sequencing. RESULTS Results of network pharmacology indicated that KSCF may treat UC by regulating signaling pathways such as phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/AKT) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF- κB). Molecular docking results showed that KSCF bound most stably with NF-κB p65 protein. Animal experiment results demonstrated that, compared with the model group, the pathological characteristics of colon tissue in mice were improved in KSCF group. DAI scores, serum levels of LPS, the levels of MPO,NF-κB p65 phosphorylation and NLRP3 protein expression in the colon, and the proportion of CD8+T lymphocytes in the spleen were reduced significantly (P<0.05). Body weight, SOD levels, expression levels of occludin and ZO-1 in the colon, proportions of CD3+T and CD4+T lymphocytes, and the CD4+/CD8+ ratio in the spleen were significantly increased (P<0.05); the abundance of Firmicutes, Actinobacteria, Akkermansia, and Lactobacillus genera were increased, while Proteobacteria decreased; the microbial community structure tended towards that of the normal group. CONCLUSIONS KSCF alleviates UC by restoring intestinal microbial imbalance, enhancing immune response, and inhibiting colonic inflammatory responses, thereby improving intestinal barrier integrity.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value and imaging characteristics of ultrasound and multi-slice spiral CT in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) wrist joint lesions.Methods:The clinical data of 54 cases of RA wrist arthropathy in Jianhu Hospital Affiliated to Nantong University from December 2018 to April 2020 were analyzed. All the patients were examined by ultrasound and multi-slice spiral CT. The imaging characteristics of ultrasound and multi-slice spiral CT were analyzed, and the detection rates of synovitis, joint effusion, tenosynovitis, bone erosion and wrist joint lesions were calculated.Results:A total of 1 188 joints were examined in 54 patients with RA, including 108 wrist joints, 540 metacarpophalangeal joints and 540 proximal interphalangeal joints. There was no significant difference in the detection rate of wrist joint synovitis, joint effusion and tenosynovitis between ultrasound and CT ( P>0.05). The wrist joint lesions detection rates of ultrasound and CT were 97.2%(105/108) and 46.3% (50/108), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 36.52, P<0.05). Ultrasound image features: synovitis ultrasound image showed hypoechoic joint cavity, not by joint displacement or compression image, color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI) examination could see blood flow signal;joint effusion in ultrasound image of joint effusion was strip, strip-shaped, non-uniform distribution, image was affected by joint displacement or compression, CDFI examination had no blood flow signal; bone erosion ultrasound image showed bone cortical continuous interruption or "crater" "insect erosion" like defects. CT imaging features: wrist joint space narrow, osteoporosis, some patients with scaphoid, distal radius visible bone erosion. Conclusions:The detection rate of wrist synovitis, joint effusion and tenosynovitis by ultrasound and multi-row spiral CT are similar. The multi-row spiral CT examination have a slight advantage in evaluating the joint space and bone changes. The sensitivity of wrist bone erosion and wrist joint lesions are higher than those of multi-row spiral CT, which can guide the early clinical diagnosis and treatment of RA.

Background: Decompensated liver cirrhosis is a common disease in department of gastroenterology, and the prognosis is poor. There are many liver cirrhosis-related scoring models, but all have certain limitations. Aims: To explore the clinical value of serum calcium level combined choline esterase, MELD-Na score for predicting prognosis in patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Methods: A total of 169 patients with decompensated cirrhosis from Jan. 2017 to Dec. 2020 at the Quzhou Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University were enrolled. Serum calcium level, choline esterase, creatinine, international normalized ratio (INR), prothrombin time, total bilirubin (TBIL) and serum sodium level were detected, and MELD score and MELD-Na score were calculated. ROC curve was used to analyze the value of parameters in evaluating prognosis of patients with decompensated cirrhosis. Results: After 6 months' follow-up, 125 patients survived and 44 died. TBIL, creatinine, INR, prothrombin time, MELD score, MELD-Na score were significantly lower in survival group than in death group (P<0.05), while serum albumin, sodium, calcium, choline esterase levels were significantly higher (P<0.05). ROC curve showed that AUC of serum calcium level, choline esterase, MELD score and MELD-Na score for predicting prognosis of patients with decompensated cirrhosis were 0.824, 0.783, 0.781 and 0.839, respectively. AUC of serum calcium level combined with choline esterase and MELD-Na score was 0.897. Conclusions: The combination of serum calcium level, choline esterase and MELD-Na score has a higher predictive value for the 6-months prognosis of decompensated cirrhosis patients.

Objective To explore the effects of home-based exercise rehabilitation on anxiety in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI),and to improve both mental health and heart rehabilitation of the patients.Methods Totals of 108 patients who were diagnosed with CHD in Renmin hospital of Wuhan university and should have received PCI were recruited into the study from December 2013 to December 2015. The participants were randomly divided into two groups:intervention group (n=54) and control group (n=54). Based on the routine nursing care and discharged education,the intervention group also received home-based exercise rehabilitation with regular follow-up and supervision for exercise. The basic information,self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and exercise situation were documented and assessed before the intervention,as well as three months and six months after the intervention.Results 48 patients in the experimental group and 46 patients in the control group completed the study. Within the group effect:the SAS had a significant difference (P<0.05) but exercise related indicators (i.e. heart rate,SBP,DBP,sports days) showed no difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Within the time effect:both SAS and exercise related indicators demonstrated statistical differences between each time point (P<0.05). The interaction effects between time and group existed in SAS,SBP,DBP,and sports days (P<0.05),except for heart rate (P>0.05). The intervention group patients performed better exercise compliance (i.e. frequency,duration,intensity,self-protection,warm-up and relaxation exercise) after a six-month intervention,compared with the compliance before the intervention (P<0.05).Conclusions Home-based exercise rehabilitation can effectively alleviate patients' anxiety,and can also improve patients' cardiovascular function and reduce their blood pressure. The regular telephone follow-up and health education can better improve patients' adherence to the home-based exercise rehabilitation.
