ObjectiveTo explore the interaction and competitive binding of Homo sapiens long intergenic non-protein-coding RNA 1134 （LINC01134） to CCCTC-binding factor CTCF， affecting the transcription of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor （p21） and influencing the proliferation of A549 cells， in order to investigate the possible mechanism of Astragali Radix and Hedyotis diffusa （A-H） in inhibiting A549 proliferation by regulating this axis. MethodsRNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation （RIP） assays were conducted to examine the interaction between LINC01134 and CTCF， and chromatin immunoprecipitation （ChIP） assays were used to study the effect of LINC01134 overexpression on the interaction between CTCF and p21. Stable A549 cell lines （oe-NC and oe-LINC01134） were established using lentiviral transfection， and each group was treated with 10% A-H drug-containing serum. Real-time PCR and Western blot analyses were performed to detect the effects of A-H on the expression of LINC01134， CTCF， and p21 in A549 cells. Cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） and colony formation assays were used to assess the effects of A-H on A549 cell proliferation via LINC01134. Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate the effects of A-H on the A549 cell cycle through LINC01134， and Western blot was used to detect changes in cell cycle proteins. ResultsCompared with the IgG group， the oe-CTCF group showed a significantly increased abundance of LINC01134 aggregates （P0.01）. Compared with the oe-Vector group， p21 abundance in CTCF complexes was significantly reduced in the oe-LINC01134 group （P0.01）. Compared with the 10% blank + oe-LINC01134 group， the 10% A-H + oe-LINC01134 group reversed the expression of LINC01134 and p21 （P0.05）， but had no significant regulatory effect on CTCF. Compared with the 10% blank + oe-LINC01134 group， the 10% A-H + oe-LINC01134 group reversed cell viability at 72 h （P0.05）， inhibited malignant proliferation （P0.05）， and reversed the proportions of cells in the G₀/G₁ and S phases （P0.01）. Furthermore， compared with the 10% blank + oe-LINC01134 group， the 10% A-H + oe-LINC01134 group reversed the expression of Cyclin D₁， CDK4， Cyclin E， CDK2， phosphorylated retinoblastoma protein （p-Rb）， and E2F transcription factor 3 （E2F3） （P0.01）. ConclusionA-H regulates the LINC01134-CTCF-p21 axis to block the G₁/S phase transition of A549 cell cycle， accelerate cellular senescence， and inhibit malignant proliferation.

Children， as a special group， frequently experience of off-label drug use worldwide. Common reasons for off-label drug use in children include the lack of data on pediatric patients during the clinical trial stage of drug development， delayed updates to drug instructions， and the non-standard professional behavior of some doctors. Off-label drug use in children is a double-edged sword. It could save lives and provide a way to explore additional functions of drugs， while it may also lead to the phenomenon of hyper-indication abuse， increasing the risk of adverse drug events. Regulating off-label drug use in children can safeguard the best treatment rights and interests of children. It is recommended to encourage pharmaceutical enterprises to conduct research and development of pediatric new drugs， simplify the approval process for drug instructions amendments， accumulate evidence-based medical evidence for off-label drug use in children， standardize the process of off-label drug use in children in medical institutions， continuously improve the standardized diagnosis and treatment capabilities of pediatricians， and actively cooperate with the families of pediatric patients in diagnosis and treatment， so as to comprehensively safeguard the rights and interests of both doctors and patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of excessive activation of the Specific protein 1 （Sp1）-MicroRNA-582-3p （miR-582-3p）-cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor （p27） axis on the cell cycle and proliferation of A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells at the cellular level， thereby investigating the possible mechanisms by which Astragali Radix and Hedyotis diffusa（A-H） regulate the axis to inhibit A549 cells proliferation. MethodsLentiviral plasmid transfection technology was used to obtain four stable A549 transgenic cell lines： shRNA-Sp1+LV-miR-582-3p mimic， shRNA-Sp1+LV-mNC， shRNA-NC+LV-miR-582-3p mimic， and shRNA-NC+LV-mNC. Real-time PCR was used to detect the effect of Sp1 on miR-582-3p expression in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells. CCK-8 and colony formation assay were used to detect the effect of Sp1 on cell proliferation through miR-582-3p， while flow cytometry was used to detect the effect of Sp1 on cell cycle via miR-582-3p. Western blot was used to detect the effect of Sp1 on cyclin in A549 cells through miR-582-3p. CCK-8 was employed to detect the effects of different concentrations （5%， 10%， 20%， 40%， 80%） of A-H on A549 cell viability， and the optimal concentration was selected for subsequent mechanism exploration. Stable transgenic strains oe-Sp1 and control oe-Vector were constructed using the above-mentioned transfection techniques. Real-time PCR was then used to investigate the effect of A-H on miR-582-3p expression in A549 cells， while Western blot was employed to detect the effect of A-H on Sp1 and p27 expression in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells. ResultsCompared with the shRNA-NC+LV-mNC group， the expression of miR-582-3p was significantly inhibited in the shRNA-Sp1+LV-mNC group （P<0.01）. Compared with the shRNA-Sp1+LV-mNC group， the shRNA-Sp1+LV-miR-582-3p mimic group significantly reversed miR-582-3p expression （P<0.01）， indicating that Sp1 has a significant regulatory effect on miR-582-3p. Compared with the shRNA-Sp1+LV-mNC group， the shRNA-Sp1+LV-miR-582-3p mimic group significantly reversed cell proliferation （P<0.01）， suggesting that miR-582-3p can partially reverse the proliferative effect of Sp1 on A549 lung adenocarcinoma. Compared with the shRNA-Sp1+LV-mNC group， the shRNA-Sp1+LV-miR-582-3p mimic group showed a significant decrease in G₀/G₁ proportions， while the G₂/M and S phase proportions increased significantly （P<0.01）， indicating that miR-582-3p can partially reverse the effect of Sp1 on the A549 cell cycle. Compared with the shRNA-Sp1+LV-mNC group， the shRNA-Sp1+LV-miR-582-3p mimic group significantly reversed the expression of various proteins with the decrease of p27 and the increase of Cyclin D₁， CDK4， Cyclin E， CDK2， p-Rb， and E2F3 （P<0.01）， indicating that miR-582-3p can partially reverse the effect of Sp1 on the cell cycle of A549 lung adenocarcinoma. Compared with the blank group， the serum containing A-H significantly inhibited A549 cell viability in a concentration-dependent manner. Therefore， 10% A-H was selected for intervention of subsequent mechanism experiments. Compared with A-H+oe-Vector， A-H+oe-Sp1 significantly reversed the downregulation of Sp1， miR-582-3p， and the upregulation of p27 （P<0.01）. This suggests that Sp1 can partially reverse the effects of A-H on miR-582-3p and p27 levels in A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells. ConclusionOveractivation of the Sp1-miR-582-3p-p27 axis significantly promotes the proliferation of A549 lung adenocarcinoma cells， and the potential mechanism of the inhibitory effect of A-H on the proliferation of A549 cells may be related to its inhibition on the overactivation of the Sp1-miR-582-3p-p27 axis.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiaoji Hufei Formula in protecting children with close contact exposure to influenza， and to provide reference and evidence-based support for better clinical prevention and treatment of influenza in children. MethodsA multicenter， prospective， non-randomized， parallel， controlled trial was conducted from October 2021 to May 2022 in five hospitals， including Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Confirmed influenza cases and influenza-like illness （ILI） cases were collected， and eligible children with close contact exposure to these cases were recruited in the outpatient clinics. According to whether the enrolled close contacts were willing to take Xiaoji Hufei formula for influenza prevention， they were assigned to the observation group （108 cases） or the control group （108 cases）. Follow-up visits were conducted on days 7 and 14 after enrollment. The primary outcomes were the incidence of ILI and the rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza. Secondary outcomes included traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score scale for influenza， influenza-related emergency （outpatient） visit rate， influenza hospitalization rate， and time to onset after exposure to influenza cases. ResultsA total of 216 participants were enrolled， with 108 in the observation group and 108 in the control group. Primary outcomes： （1） Incidence of ILI： The incidence was 12.0% （13/108） in the observation group and 23.1% （25/108） in the control group， with the observation group showing a significantly lower incidence （χ²=4.6， P<0.05）. （2） Influenza confirmation rate： 3.7% （4/108） in the observation group and 4.6% （5/108） in the control group， with no statistically significant difference. Secondary outcomes： （1） TCM symptom score scale： after onset， nasal congestion and runny nose scores differed significantly between the two groups （P<0.05）， while other symptoms such as fever， sore throat， and cough showed no significant differences. （2） Influenza-related emergency （outpatient） visit rate： 84.6% （11 cases） in the observation group and 96.0% （24 cases） in the control group， with no significant difference. （3） Time to onset after exposure： The median onset time after exposure to index patients was 7 days in the observation group and 4 days in the control group， with a statistically significant difference （P<0.05）. ConclusionIn previously healthy children exposed to infectious influenza cases under unprotected conditions， Xiaoji Hufei formula prophylaxis significantly reduced the incidence of ILI. Xiaoji Hufei Formula can be recommended as a specific preventive prescription for influenza in children.

Robotic surgery has evolved to be a separate field, with enormous potential for future development in plastic surgery. In the past decade, surgical robots have been increasingly used in the areas of craniomaxillofacial surgery, reconstructive surgery, microsurgery, hair reconstructive surgery, and so on. Technical advantages of robotic surgery, such as 3D vision, stable and magnified image, physiologic tremor filtering, and motion scaling, have been considered as improvement over traditional minimally invasive surgery. Surgeon ergonomics, instrument precision and patients’ postoperative recovery were all objectively improved. However, specialized instruments and equipment, high cost, and lack of haptic feedback are the main limiting factors for the widespread adoption of robotics at present. This review summarizes the development of the robot-assisted techniques, including its outcomes, advantages and disadvantages in plastic surgery in recent years. Finally, the possibilities of combining surgical robots with artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), 5G and other new technologies are also summarized.
