BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that mitochondrial oxidative stress has an important role in the development of knee osteoarthritis,and Hemin can regulate the expression of mitochondria-related proteins. OBJECTIVE:To study the regulatory effect of Hemin on oxidative stress in mouse chondrocytes and its interventional effect and mechanism in knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:(1)In vitro cell experiment:Primary chondrocytes from C57BL/6 mice were extracted and induced with 10 ng/mL interleukin-1β to construct an in vitro chondrocyte model of osteoarthritis.The optimal concentration of Hemin(0,1,10,20,40,80,and 160 μmol/L)for the intervention in mouse chondrocytes was determined by cell counting kit-8 method.Chondrocytes were randomly divided into control group,model group(interleukin-1β)and Hemin group(interleukin-1β+Hemin).Reactive oxygen species,mitochondrial membrane potential and apoptosis of chondrocytes in each group were detected.(2)In vivo experiment:Adult C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into normal group,model group(osteoarthritis)and Hemin group(osteoarthritis+Hemin),with eight mice in each group.After 4 weeks of Hemin treatment,the behavioral test and histopathological observation of the knee joint were performed in each group.Changes in extracellular matrix-related protein expression and apoptosis in chondrocytes and the expression level of Nrf2/HO-1 protein in cartilage tissue were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In vitro experiment:the optimal concentration of Hemin on primary chondrocytes was 40 μmol/L.Compared with the model group,the level of reactive oxygen species was significantly reduced,the mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly improved,and the apoptosis of chondrocytes was reduced in the hemin-treated interleukin-1β-induced chondrocytes.In vivo experiment:After 4 weeks of treatment,compared with the model group,the lower limb function of mice in the Hemin group was significantly improved,the histopathological score was significantly improved,and the apoptosis of knee chondrocytes was significantly reduced.All these findings indicate that Hemin can alleviate oxidative stress,restore mitochondrial function and reduce apoptosis in mouse chondrocytes induced by interleukin-1β.Hemin can improve extracellular matrix degradation,promote chondrocyte anabolism,reduce catabolism and reduce chondrocyte apoptosis in knee osteoarthritis.It may act by activating the chondrocyte Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway in the inflammatory environment.

The modernization of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the field of oncology has led to the formation of a diversified theoretical system for tumor treatment. However， this system faces challenges such as significant differences between theoretical understanding and clinical treatment and lack of unified consensus and standardized protocols. The pathogenesis and treatment of collateral diseases， when summarized by the philosophy of Yin and Yang Qi transformation， offer a valuable academic perspective in the tumor theory by simplifying complexity and integrating knowledge. Building on the foundation of the collateral theory and modern research， our team has innovatively proposed the theory of cancer collaterals. From the Yin and Yang Qi transformation of collaterals， this theory emphasizes that the core pathogenesis of cancer collaterals is the dysfunction of Qi transformation in collaterals. Cancer collaterals are characterized by a Yin substance with a Yang function， representing the pathogenic Qi combining Yin and Yang. This theory outlines seven pathological characteristics （concealment， aggressive onset， toxin coagulation， obstruction and stasis， deficiency and damage， variable dispersion， and differences in Zang-organ collaterals） of cancer collaterals， five unique pathogeneses （latent toxin， stasis obstruction， damage， abnormal proliferation， and toxin dispersion in cancer collaterals） of cancer collaterals， and the full-cycle pathogenesis evolution through four stages （early， middle， late， and post-treatment stages） of tumors. In clinical practice， it is essential to differentiate the Yin and Yang Qi transformation states of body collaterals and cancer collaterals to restore the normal Qi transformation of collaterals and regulate the disordered Qi transformation of cancer collaterals. Therefore， the treatment method of regulating Qi and dredging collaterals in the theory of cancer collaterals is proposed. Regulating Qi involves adjusting the yang of cancer collaterals to promote Qi transformation， while dredging collaterals involves resolving the Yin of cancer collaterals to transform the formed cancer toxin. Finally， the practical value of the theory of cancer collaterals is discussed in terms of guiding clinical differentiation and treatment， promoting scientific research， and breaking down theoretical barriers. The aim is to perfect the theoretical system of malignant tumor differentiation and treatment.

OBJECTIVE To systematically investigate the current status and effectiveness of the standardized on-the-job training program for community clinical pharmacists in Shanghai， and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing the training scheme. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the data from trainees and mentor pharmacists who participated in the program between 2016 and 2024. The survey examined their basic information， evaluations of the training scheme， satisfaction with training outcomes， and suggestions for improvement. Statistical analyses were also conducted. RESULTS A total of 420 valid responses were collected， including 340 from trainees and 80 from mentor pharmacists. Before training， only 30.29% of trainees were engaged in clinical pharmacy-related work， whereas this proportion increased to 73.24% after training. Most mentor pharmacists had extensive experience in clinical pharmacy （76.25% with ≥5 years of experience） and mentoring （78.75% with ≥3 teaching sessions）. Totally 65.59% of trainees and 55.00% of mentor pharmacists believed that blended training yielded the best learning outcomes. Over 80.00% of both trainees and mentor pharmacists considered the overall training duration， theoretical study time， and practical training time to be reasonable. More than 95.00% of trainees and mentor pharmacists agreed that the homework and assessment schemes were appropriate. Trainees rated the relevance of training content to their actual work highly （with an average relevance score ＞4.5）， though they perceived the chronic disease medication therapy management module as significantly more challenging than the prescription review and evaluation module and the home-based pharmaceutical care module. The average satisfaction score of trainees and mentor pharmacists with the training effectiveness of each project was above 4 points， indicating a high overall satisfaction. Inadequate provision of teaching resources was unanimously recognized by trainees and mentor pharmacists as the key area requiring improvement. CONCLUSIONS The standardized on-the-job training program for community clinical pharmacists in Shanghai has contributed to improving pharmaceutical services in community healthcare settings. However， ongoing improvements must concentrate on content design， resource development， and faculty cultivation.

Lung cancer （LC） is a significant global public health issue， with both its incidence and mortality rates ranking among the highest worldwide. The age-standardized incidence and mortality rates are increasing annually， posing a serious threat to the life and health of LC patients. Radical surgical resection is the primary treatment for malignant lung tumors. However， postoperative multidimensional functional impairments， including respiratory， mucosal， and psychological functions， are common. These impairments not only reduce patients' quality of life and affect their treatment tolerance and duration， but also negatively correlate with prognosis， facilitating disease recurrence and metastasis. At present， postoperative functional dysfunction after LC surgery remains a key clinical challenge that urgently needs to be addressed. There is a lack of standardized and regulated postoperative rehabilitation treatment management and traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） differentiation and treatment strategies for LC. Focusing on the core underlying pathogenesis of "Qi sinking" after LC surgery， and guided by the classical TCM theory of "lungs governing Qi"， this study， based on the core concept of the "five perspectives on treatment" theory， innovatively proposes the respiratory dysfunction as the core pathogenesis of "Qi sinking in the chest" during the rapid rehabilitation phase， mucosal dysfunction as the core pathogenesis of "Yin deficiency and Qi sinking" during the postoperative adjuvant treatment phase， and the psychological dysfunction as the core pathogenesis of "Qi sinking with emotional constraint" during the consolidation phase. Accordingly， stage-specific dynamic functional protection strategies are constructed. In the rapid rehabilitation phase， the strategy emphasizes tonifying Qi and uplifting sinking Qi， with differentiation and treatment based on the principle of ''descending before ascending''. In the adjuvant treatment phase， the approach focuses on nourishing Yin and uplifting Qi， with prescription combinations that integrate unblocking and tonification. In the consolidation phase， the strategy aims to resolve constraint and uplift Qi， with clinical treatment emphasizing a combination of dynamic and static methods. At each stage of functional rehabilitation， clinical differentiation and treatment should support healthy Qi and eliminate pathogenic factors simultaneously. This study is the first to propose the concept of postoperative functional protection in TCM， offering a new approach for TCM differentiation and treatment in the full-cycle， stage-based， and dynamic protection of postoperative function in LC patients. It is expected to contribute to the construction and development of an integrated TCM-Western medicine comprehensive program for cancer prevention and treatment in China.

Tumor treatment-related adverse reactions are a major focus of clinical concern， among which recurrent aphthous oral ulcers （RAU） associated with targeted therapy for lung cancer （LC） are among the most painful and distressing for patients. Currently， modern medical interventions show limited efficacy， and there is an urgent need for more effective treatment strategies. This study differentiates RAU associated with targeted therapy for LC from chemotherapy-related and ordinary oral ulcers， elucidates the pathophysiological basis of such ulcers， and traces the theoretical origin of "Yin deficiency and Qi collapse". Based on the new system of "five perspectives on diagnosis and treatment" for tumor prevention and treatment， with a focus on the core and symptom perspectives and rooted in the traditional concept of "lung dominating Qi"， we innovatively propose the concept of "medicine-induced ulcer" and are the first to introduce the theory of "Yin deficiency and Qi collapse" into the syndrome differentiation and treatment of RAU associated with targeted therapy for LC （i.e.， medicine-induced ulcer）. We propose that "Yin deficiency and Qi collapse" is the core pathogenesis of medicine-induced ulcers， in which the collapse of formless Qi is the key to their onset， while the deficiency and stasis of tangible Yin and blood constitute the root of recurrence. A hierarchical strategy for syndrome differentiation and treatment is established： first treating the collapse of formless Qi， then replenishing tangible deficiencies， and concurrently preventing recurrence. We emphasize that treatment should address both root and manifestation， with appropriate prioritization. In the acute phase， while relieving symptoms and promoting ulcer healing by nourishing Qi， uplifting collapse， and generating body fluids， attention should also be paid to nourishing spleen Yin， facilitating the circulation of nutritive Qi， and alleviating stasis to target the root pathogenesis and reduce recurrence. A verified case is presented to support this approach. This study enriches the theoretical framework and clinical methods of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in the treatment of RAU associated with targeted therapy for LC， promotes symptom management of treatment-related adverse reactions through integrated TCM and Western medicine， and provides theoretical support for the construction and development of a comprehensive differentiation and treatment system for lung cancer prevention， treatment， and rehabilitation.

BACKGROUND:The elastic modulus of traditional bone implants is large and does not match the elastic modulus of human bone,which will cause a stress shielding effect and lead to bone resorption.The trabecular scaffold of the triply periodic minimal surface with radial gradient has elastic modulus matching with human cancellous bone,and its yield strength is greater than that of human cortical bone,which provides a new choice for the design of bone scaffold. OBJECTIVE:Triply periodic minimal surface structure with radial gradient was constructed by the implicit surface method.The sample was manufactured by laser selective melting technology,and the quasi-static compression test was carried out to obtain trabecular scaffolds with mechanical properties matching human bones. METHODS:Four types of the trabecular scaffolds of the triply periodic minimal surface with a radial gradient of G,I,P and D were established by the implicit surface method.Samples were manufactured by laser selective melting technology.We observed the surface morphology of the molded sample,evaluated the molding quality,conducted a quasi-static compression test,and evaluated the mechanical properties of the samples. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The quasi-static compression test results showed that compared with the four triply periodic minimal surface scaffolds,the platform stress of the G scaffold had less fluctuation and no failure or fracture,indicating that the G scaffold had the best plasticity.The mechanical properties of the G scaffolds with 45%,55%and 65%porosities were analyzed.It was found that the elastic modulus of G scaffolds with 55%porosity was within the range of elastic modulus of human cancellous bone(0.022-3.7 GPa),and the yield strength was close to the maximum yield strength of human cortical bone(187.7-222.3 MPa).In conclusion,G triply periodic minimal surface scaffold with 55%porosity can reduce the stress shielding effect,bear a higher body load,improve the stability of the implant,and prolong the service life of the implant.

As an important concept in Chinese medicine theory， "qi sinking" is the inheritance and extension of the thought core of sinking of qi in whole body. This article explored the concept of sinking of pectoral qi， center qi， and kidney qi in the theory of qi sinking， and believed that sinking of pectoral qi， stagnation and sinking of center qi， deficiency and sinking of kidney qi were the core pathogenesis of postoperative injury in malignant tumours. Anchored to the method of reinforcing healthy qi and lifting the sunken， this article recommended to identify pattern and treat by guiding supplement and lifting the sunken. For lung gold impairment， heart yang depletion， and pectoral qi sinking， the treatment is to warm and supplement heart and lung， lift pectoral qi， and restore the respiratory function by modified Shengxian Decoction （升陷汤） plus Guizhi Decoction （桂枝汤）； for spleen depletion and pathways blockage， liver failing to act freely， and center qi stagnation and sinking， the treatment is to warm and supplement center qi， raise yang and lift the sunken， and restore the digestive function by modified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤）； for source exhausted and essence deficiency， liver qi hiding， and kidney qi deficiency to inward invasion， the treatment is to nourish the kidney and astringe the liver， consolidate the original qi and lift qi， improve the pelvic floor dysfunction， and protect the kidney function by modified Liuwei Dihuang Pill （六味地黄丸） plus Shengma Chaihu Decoction （升麻柴胡汤）. Modification need base on different disease patterns and stages， and new ideas for postoperative traditional Chinese medicine treatment and rehabilitation of malignant tumours were provided.

AIM:To investigate the effect of doublecortin-like kinase 1(DCLK1)on the biological properties of gastric cancer stem cells,and to explore its possible mechanism.METHODS:Serum-free suspension culture of gastric cancer stem cells and targeted inhibition of DCLK1 activity in gastric cancer stem cells with DCLK1 inhibitor DCLK1-IN-1 were performed.The expression levels of DCLK1,stemness-related proteins(SOX2 and OCT4),proliferation-related pro-teins(cyclin D1 and c-MYC),drug resistance-related proteins(ABCG2 and TOP2A),epithelial-mesenchymal transition-related proteins(E-cadherin,vimentin and Snail),and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway-related proteins in gastric cancer stem cells were examined by Western blot.The effects of DCLK1 on viability and drug resistance of gastric cancer stem cells were determined by CCK-8 assay,and the effects of DCLK1 on self-renewal of gastric cancer stem cells were de-termined by methylcellulose spheroid-forming assay.Wound-healing and Transwell assays were performed to assess the ef-fect of DCLK1 on the migration and invasion of gastric cancer stem cells.RESULTS:The expression levels of DCLK1 and stemness-related proteins SOX2 and OCT4 in gastric cancer stem cells were significantly higher than those in parental cells(P＜0.01).The proliferation,drug resistance,migration and invasion of gastric cancer stem cells in DCLK1 inhibi-tion group were significantly lower than those in Sphere cell group(P＜0.01).The expression levels of proliferation-related proteins(c-MYC and cyclin D1)and drug resistance-related proteins(TOP2A and ABCG2)were down-regulated,the ex-pression of epithelial marker E-cadherin was up-regulated,the expression of mesenchymal markers vimentin and Snail was down-regulated,and the expression levels of PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway-related proteins and their phosphoryla-tion levels were reduced in DCLK1 inhibition group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:DCLK1 is highly expressed in gastric cancer stem cells,which may be involved in the proliferation,drug resistance and invasion of gastric cancer stem cells by regulating PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.It suggests that DCLK1 can be used as a potential target for gastric cancer stem cells.

Objective Motortherapy and neck muscle resistance training are used to study the effects of resistance training on neck pain level and surface myoelectric activity of student pilots of carrier aircraft.Methods We conducted an intervention experiment on the neck pain of the carrier-based aircraft student pilots.The experiment period was 3 months.The experimental subjects were male carrier-based aircraft student pilots aged from 23 to 35.Questionnaires,including the Cervical Dysfunction Index and the Chinese Physical Activity Questionnaire,were issued,followed by cervical muscle function tests,including cervical maximum muscle strength,cervical range of motion,and surface electromyography tests.The experimental subjects were randomly divided into the control group and the resistance training group,with 8 in each.The subjects in the control group recieved usual military training.Those in the resistance training group recieved targeted training programs developed by using the self-developed cervical spondylosis prevention training device in addition to usual military training.The programs were carried out for resistance training three times a week for 20 minutes in each.Cervical maximum muscle strength,cervical range of motion,and surface electromyography were tested again before the end of the intervention experiment.The data were analyzed by SPSS 22.0.The results were expressed by mean±standard deviation((-x)±s).P<0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results(1)After 12-week intervention,resistance training had a significant effect on visual pain analog scale(VAS).(2)After the intervention,the comparison results of the subjects'cervical spine dysfunction index(NDI)before and after their own tests showed that the level of cervical spine dysfunction was significantly improved.(3)After the intervention,the results of inter-group comparison of the subjects'own joint motion showed that the self-variation difference of the subjects in the resistance training group was significantly different in forward flexion,backward extension,left flexion,right flexion,right rotation and left rotation.(4)After the intervention,the comparison results between the two groups of subjects'own neck muscle strength showed that there was no significant difference in the self-change of the six movements of subjects in the resistance training group.(5)The root mean square(RMS)values in the four movement tests of flexion,extension,flexion and flexion before and after the intervention in the resistance training group showed no significant difference between the left and right sternocleidomastoid muscle and the right and right trapezius muscle.(6)The integrated electromyography(iEMG)in the four movement tests of flexion,extension,flexion and flexion before and after the intervention in the resistance training group showed no significant difference between the left and right sternocleidomastoid muscle and the right and right trapezius muscle superior bundle.Conclusion After 12 weeks of resistance training,VAS scores and NDI scores of resistance training subjects are significantly reduced,indicating that resistance training can alleviate neck pain and improve cervical spine dysfunction.12-week resistance training can enhance the strength of neck muscles of carrier-based aircraft student pilots and improve the anti-fatigue ability of neck muscles.Meanwhile,it can enhance the range of motion of neck joints,improve the load of the deep and shallow muscle fibers of the four tested muscles in the neck and optimize the activation mode of the deep and shallow muscles in the neck.

Objective To explore the intervention effect of badminton exercise on neck pain in naval carrier-based aircraft flight trainees,and provide data support for the prevention and relief of neck pain in these trainees.Methods A total of 16 naval carrier-based aircraft flight trainees were selected as subjects based on inclusion and exclusion criteria,and randomly divided into the sports rehabilitation group and the control group,with eight participants in each group.The sports rehabilitation group engaged in badminton exercise three times a week for one hour each time,in addition to their regular military training.The control group received no other interventions apart from their regular military training.Neck Disability Index(NDI),Visual Analog Scale(VAS)for pain simulation,Cervical Range of Motion(CROM),maximum neck strength,Root Mean Square(RMS)value of surface electromyographic signals,and integrated electromyography(iEMG)values were used as evaluation indexes for the intervention effect of neck pain.Results There was a significant difference in NDI scores among members of the sports rehabilitation group before and after intervention(P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference observed in NDI scores among members of the control group before and after intervention(P>0.05).Furthermore,there was a significant difference in VAS scores among members of the sports rehabilitation group before and after intervention(P<0.01).The VAS scores of the control group members showed no significant difference compared to pre-intervention testing(P>0.05).The maximum range of motion in all directions increased for the exercise rehabilitation group,with significant differences observed in left and right flexion(P<0.05),but no significant differences were found in other directions(P>0.05)compared to pre-intervention levels.There was no significant change in maximum range of motion within the control group before and after intervention(P>0.05).The exercise rehabilitation group demonstrated a significant increase in neck muscle strength during forward flexion,backward extension,left flexion(P<0.01),and right flexion as well as left and right rotation values(P<0.05)compared to pre-intervention levels.There was no significant difference observed between RMS values on both sides of the sternocleidomastoid muscles during movement in four different directions for the exercise rehabilitation group(P>0.05).However,there was a significant difference observed on the left side of the upper trapezius muscle during forward and rightward movements(P<0.05),but not during backward or leftward movements(P>0.05).No statistically significant differences were found among any direction's iEMG values before or after intervention for four muscles tested except that iEMG value increased slightly without significance after intervention when performing forward bending,backward extension and rightward bending exercises within exercise rehabilitation groups(P>0.05).Conclusion After badminton training,neck pain among carrier-based fighter pilots is allivated while cervical dysfunction recovers somewhat.Furthermore,their neck flexibility increases along with their neck muscle strength while deep muscles are activated to maintain stability to effectively enhance fatigue resistance capacity within these muscle groups around their necks.
