Objective To evaluate the consistency of DNA coding region single nucleotide polymorphism(cSNP)genotyping at the DNA and RNA levels in common body fluid samples based on the next-generation sequencing platform.Methods After extensive literature retrieval,25 cSNP loci of 8 human tissue-specific mRNAs in peripheral blood,semen and vaginal secretion were selected.Two cSNP multiplex genotyping panels based on DNA and RNA,respectively,were developed for use on the MiSeq FGx sequencing platform.45 body fluid samples(including 14 peripheral blood samples,15 semen samples and 16 vaginal secretion samples)were sequenced and analyzed.The inconsistent typing results of DNA and RNA were rechecked by Sanger sequencing.Results The results of cSNP genotyping at the DNA and RNA levels in peripheral blood were completely consistent.Among the 15 semen samples,the genotypes of rs1995640 and rs 1995641 on the TGM4 gene were inconsistent in 3 cases.Among the 16 vaginal secretion samples,there were 2 cases,1 case and 2 case with inconsistent results of rs3869098,rs10947121 and rs12110470 in MUC22 gene,respectively.Conclusion In this study,MiSeq FGx sequencing and Sanger sequencing were used to test 25 cSNP loci with body fluid tissue specificity.The same typing results at the DNA and RNA levels were observed at 20 cSNPs.Inconsistent genotypes at the DNA and RNA levels were observed at 5 cSNPs on the TGM4 and MUC22 genes.This study provides experimental methods and data for forensic cSNP studies.

Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)serves as a treasure trove of ancient knowledge,holding a crucial position in the medical field.However,the exploration of TCM's extensive information has been hindered by challenges related to data standardization,completeness,and accuracy,primarily due to the decen-tralized distribution of TCM resources.To address these issues,we developed a platform for TCM knowledge discovery(TCMKD,https://cbcb.cdutcm.edu.cn/TCMKD/).Seven types of data,including syndromes,formulas,Chinese patent drugs(CPDs),Chinese medicinal materials(CMMs),ingredients,targets,and diseases,were manually proofread and consolidated within TCMKD.To strengthen the integration of TCM with modern medicine,TCMKD employs analytical methods such as TCM data mining,enrichment analysis,and network localization and separation.These tools help elucidate the molecular-level commonalities between TCM and contemporary scientific insights.In addition to its analytical capabilities,a quick question and answer(Q&A)system is also embedded within TCMKD to query the database efficiently,thereby improving the interactivity of the platform.The platform also provides a TCM text annotation tool,offering a simple and efficient method for TCM text mining.Overall,TCMKD not only has the potential to become a pivotal repository for TCM,delving into the pharmaco-logical foundations of TCM treatments,but its flexible embedded tools and algorithms can also be applied to the study of other traditional medical systems,extending beyond just TCM.

The interplay between psychological pain and physical pain is one of the key issues in the research of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). Psychological pain, driven by negative self-perception and difficulties in emotional regulation, activates specific brain regions, such as the anterior cingulate gyrus and insula, areas that overlap with neural networks involved in physical pain. Physical pain can, in turn, activate distinct neural pathways that temporarily alleviate psychological pain. However, repeated self-injury may lead to increased pain tolerance over time, contributing to a vicious cycle. This paper reviews the potential neural network connections and interactions between psychological and physical pain in the context of NSSI behavior. It also summarizes current clinical interventions and their effectiveness in treating NSSI, aiming to offer new insights for future research and clinical practice in preventing and treating NSSI.
