ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

Objective: To construct gene recombinant expression plasmids of human anti-P antibody with IgG1 and kappa chain based on the human hybridoma cell line. Methods: Starting from the specific RT-PCR products encoding the variable regions of the IgH chain and IgL chain of the anti-P monoclonal cell line, appropriate restriction enzyme digestion sites were introduced at both ends of the VH and VL fragments through nested PCR. The plasmids carrying the antibody constant region and the nested PCR products of VH and VL were ligated by the action of T4 ligase and subsequently transferred into competent E. coli DH5ɑ, and positive clones were selected in the antibiotic resistant LB medium. After sequence confirmation, recombinant plasmids DNA were transfected into HEK293T cells, and the recombinant antibody obtained in the culture supernatant. The characteristics of recombinant expression antibodies were determined by using rapid antibody isotying kit, serological agglutination tests and flow cytometry. Results: Recombinant gene expression vectors, pFUSEss-CHIg-hG1+VH, pFUSE2ss-CLIg-hκ+VL, were successfully constructed. Human IgG1 kappa light chain antibodies were detected in the supernatant of HEK293T cells transient transfected with recombinant plasmids. After the supernatant was ultra-filtered and concentrated, it could cause agglutination reactions with P antigen-positive red blood cells. The mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of the reaction between recombinant antibodies and antigen-positive red blood cells in flow cytometry experiments was higher than that of antigen-negative red blood cells. Conclusion: The experimental study on the conversion of red blood group antibody types by genetic engineering technology represents a beneficial exploration towards establishing a feasible technical route for the development of genetic recombination and modification of antibodies reagent.

From the theoretical perspective of "body fluids and blood stasis mixing"， environmental microplastics （MPs） are conceptualized as a "novel turbid-toxin". This study aims to elucidate the complete pathogenic pathway through which MPs act as a key driving force （the "crucible" of pathogenesis） in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis （AS）. By tracing the classical theories in the Chapter The Occurrence of All Diseases of Miraculous Pivot （Ling Shu）， this paper clarifies the core connotations of "body fluids"-it not only refers to endogenous pathological fluids and lipid turbidity but also provides a theoretical basis for incorporating "exogenous turbid fluids"， thereby laying a logical foundation for conceptualizing MPs as a "novel turbid-toxin". Meanwhile， the implications of "blood" （encompassing both blood quality abnormalities and blood stasis） and the dynamic process of "mixing" are elucidated. Drawing upon modern toxicological evidence， this paper demonstrates the high homology between MPs and "exogenous turbid-fluids" from three aspects： Morphology， toxicity， and invasion routes. The micro/nano-scale particle morphology of MPs enables mobility within the bloodstream. The multiple exposure pathways of MPs correspond to the traditional Chinese medicine understanding of pathogens invading through the mouth， nose， and skin. The characteristics of accumulating in vivo while inducing oxidative stress and inflammatory responses of MPs fully embody the pathogenic features-adhesion， binding， and vessel damage-of "turbid-toxin". On this basis， the dynamic pathogenesis of MP-induced AS is systematically interpreted. Initially， MPs with the "turbid-toxin" nature impair nutrient-defense harmony and cause endothelial dysfunction. Subsequently， as the core of "mixing"， they interact with blood lipids and immune cells， generating heat and phlegm to form a major pathological hub of chronic inflammation. Ultimately， this process drives the coalescence of phlegm， stasis， and turbid-toxin into tangible plaques， evolving from stable lesions to vulnerable masses and accumulations. By integrating classical pathogenic model with contemporary environmental medicine， this study establishes an analytical framework that bridges macro-theory and micro-mechanisms for understanding the cardiovascular risks of MPs through an integrative Chinese-Western medicine lens.

ObjectiveTo investigate the potential mechanism of Yiqi Yangyin Huoxue Formula （益气养阴活血方， YYHF） in the treatment of membranous nephropathy （MN） based on the NOX4-mediated stromal cell-derived factor-1α（SDF-1α）/CXC chemokine receptor 4 （CXCR4） signaling pathway. MethodsA total of 42 male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group （n=6） and modeling group （n=36）. The modeling rats were given a single injection of sheep antirat Fx1A （6 ml/kg） serum into the tail vein to establish MN model. Thirty-six rats with successful modeling were further divided into model group （normal saline， 10 ml/kg）， benazepril group （10 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， the medium-dose YYHF group （11.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1） and high-dose YYHF group （22.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， with 9 rats in each group. All groups received daily intragastric administration for 6 consecutive weeks. During the experimental period， the general condition of rats in each group was observed. After gavage administration finished， a fully automated biochemical analyzer was used to measure the 24-hour urine total protein （24 h-UTP） and serum biochemical parameters， including albumin （ALB）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， serum creatinine （SCr）， total cholesterol （TC）， and triglyceride （TG）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and periodic acid-silver metheramine （PASM） staining were used to observe the histopathological changes of renal tissues in each group of rats. The levels of superoxide dismutase （SOD） and malondialdehyde （MDA） in renal tissues were detected by ELISA. The protein expression levels of NOX4， SDF-1α， CXCR4， Nrf2， nuclear factor kappa B subunit p65 （NF-κB p65） and podocyte slit diaphragm protein nephrin in rat renal tissues were detected by Western Blotting. The mRNA expressions of NOX4， SDF-1α， CXCR4， Nrf2， NF-κB p65 and Nephrin in renal tissues were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （RT-PCR）. ResultsCompared to the blank group， rats in the model group exhibited typical features of MN， including lethargy， reduced activity， dull and coarse fur， marked edema， and massive proteinuria. Compared to the model group， these abnormal conditions were improved to varying degrees in all treatment groups. The high-dose YYHF group showed a level of improvement comparable to that of the benazepril group， with overall recovery superior to that of the medium-dose YYHF group. Compared to the blank group， the model group showed increased levels of 24 h-UTP， BUN， SCr， TC and TG， decreased level of ALB， increased levels of MDA and protein and mRNA expressions of NOX4， SDF-1α， CXCR4 and NF-κB p65 in renal tissue， along with decreased levels of SOD and protein and mRNA expressions of Nrf2， Nephrin （P＜0.01）， accompanied by severe renal pathological damage. Compared to the model group， the benazepril and the medium- and high-dose YYHF groups showed significant improvements in the above indicators （P＜0.01）， along with alleviation of renal pathological injury. The 24 h-UTP level in the high-dose YYHF group was lower than that in the medium-dose group （P＜0.01）， while no statistically significant difference was observed among the other treatment groups （P＞0.01）. ConclusionYYHF may alleviate oxidative stress and inflammatory responses by down-regulating the expression of NOX4 and inhibiting the SDF-1α/CXCR4-Nrf2 signaling pathway， thereby improving podocyte damage and protecting renal function.

This paper summarizes Professor WANG Xiuxia's clinical experience in treating hyperprolactinemia using the liver soothing therapy. Professor WANG identifies liver qi stagnation and rebellious chong qi （冲气） as the core pathomechanisms of hyperprolactinemia. Furthermore， liver qi stagnation may transform into fire or lead to pathological changes such as spleen deficiency with phlegm obstruction or kidney deficiency with essence depletion. The treatment strategy centers on soothing the liver， with a modified version of Qinggan Jieyu Decoction （清肝解郁汤） as the base formula. Depending on different syndrome patterns such as liver stagnation transforming into fire， liver stagnation with spleen deficiency， or liver stagnation with kidney deficiency， heat clearing， spleen strengthening， or kidney tonifying herbs are added accordingly. In addition， three paired herb combinations are commonly used for symptom specific treatment， Danggui （Angelica sinensis） with Chuanxiong （Ligusticum chuanxiong）， Zelan （Lycopus lucidus） with Yimucao （Leonurus japonicus） ， and Jiegeng （Platycodon grandiflorus） with Zisu （Perilla frutescens）.

Background: s/Aims: Non-invasive models stratifying clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) are limited. Herein, we developed a new non-invasive model for predicting CSPH in patients with compensated cirrhosis and investigated whether carvedilol can prevent hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified using the new model. Methods: Non-invasive risk factors of CSPH were identified via systematic review and meta-analysis of studies involving patients with hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). A new non-invasive model was validated for various performance aspects in three cohorts, i.e., a multicenter HVPG cohort, a follow-up cohort, and a carvediloltreating cohort. Results: In the meta-analysis with six studies (n=819), liver stiffness measurement and platelet count were identified as independent risk factors for CSPH and were used to develop the new “CSPH risk” model. In the HVPG cohort (n=151), the new model accurately predicted CSPH with cutoff values of 0 and –0.68 for ruling in and out CSPH, respectively. In the follow-up cohort (n=1,102), the cumulative incidences of decompensation events significantly differed using the cutoff values of <–0.68 (low-risk), –0.68 to 0 (medium-risk), and >0 (high-risk). In the carvediloltreated cohort, patients with high-risk CSPH treated with carvedilol (n=81) had lower rates of decompensation events than non-selective beta-blockers untreated patients with high-risk CSPH (n=613 before propensity score matching [PSM], n=162 after PSM). Conclusions Treatment with carvedilol significantly reduces the risk of hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified by the new model.

Objective To investigate the effect of Gd-hydroxyapatite(Gd-HA)stents with adipose mesenchymal cells(ADSCs)on the repair of knee articular cartilage defects.Methods To isolate,culture,and identify rabbit ADSCs by establishing a rabbit knee joint full-thickness cartilage defect model,a total of 18 rabbits were randomly divided into blank control group,Gd-HA scaffold group,and ADSCs+Gd-HA scaffold group.At week 12 and 24 after surgery,International Curtilage Repair Society(ICRS)score,HE,toluidine blue,modified red O bright green and ColⅡ were detected by immunohistochemical staining,then ColⅡand GAG mRNA expression levels were detected by O'Driscoll and Real-time PCR.ColⅡ protein expression was detected by Western blotting,GAG content was detected by DMMB,biomechanical strength was detected by indentation test,and PKH26 labeled ADSCs was used to trace the tissue engineering scaffold with Gd-HA composite ADSCs to evaluate the repair effect of rabbit knee cartilage defects.Results The ADSCs isolated and cultured in vitro showed good growth,stable phenotype and good directional differentiation through macroscopic observation and histological staining,it could be seen that the repair degree and effect of the knee joint full-thickness cartilage defect model implanted with Gd-HA scaffold group were better than those of the blank control group,while the cartilage repair situation of the ADSCs+Gd-HA scaffold group was better than that of the Gd-HA scaffold group(P＜0.05);The ICRS and improved O'Driscoll scores were higher than the other two groups(P＜0.05).Compared with the Gd-HA group,the ADSCs+Gd-HA group could produce ColⅡ and GAG during the process of cartilage repair,with stronger mechanical strength of the repaired tissue(P＜0.05);PKH26 labeled ADSCs were found in the repaired tissues of the ADSCs+Gd-HA group,and they were involved in the composition of newly formed tissues.Conclusion Gd-HA scaffold material combined with ADSCs has a good repair effect on full-thickness cartilage defects in the knee joint as a new type of biological material for repairing joint cartilage defects.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism by which SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1-intronic transcript 1(SOS1-IT1)affects enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)protein expression in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2.Methods Lentiviral transfection of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)and overexpression plasmid were used in Ishikawa and RL95-2 cell lines to knock down and overexpress SOS1-IT1.The mechanism of EZH2 expression regulation was studied using Real-time PCR,Western blotting,and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results The expression of SOS1-IT1 and EZH2 genes was positively correlated in endometrial cancer tissues.Knocking down SOS1-IT1 significantly reduces the expression of EZH2,inhibited the proliferation and migration of Ishikawa and RL95-2 cells,and could reduced the acetylation of histone H3 at position 27(H3K27)and the enrichment of CREB binding protein(CBP)in the EZH2 gene promoter region.Overexpression of SOS1-IT1 could increased the expression of EZH2 and enhance the acetylation of H3K27 and the enrichment of CBP.CBP could bind to SOS1-IT1 RNA,and this binding ability was weakened when CBP was knocked down.Conclusion SOS1-IT1 can promote the expression level of EZH2 in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2 by regulating the acetylation modification level of the EZH2 gene promoter region,thereby affecting the proliferation and migration ability of endometrial cancer cells.
