Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), through its multi-target and systematic regulatory effects, has demonstrated unique advantages in the treatment of gastric precancerous lesions (GPL). At present, TCM theoretical research on GPL is mainly reflected in three aspects, the integration of macroscopic syndrome differentiation, the inflammation-carcinoma transformation mechanism, as well as the systematization and scientization of theoretical inheritance from famous TCM practitioners. High-quality evidence-based research findings serve as the foundation for clinical practice guidelines on GPL, and TCM has gained international academic recognition in the field of GPL prevention and treatment. Research on TCM mechanisms has yielded a series of important outcomes in the aspects of signaling pathways, gene expression regulation, cellular epigenetics, histone modification, and intestinal microecology. It is proposed that future research on GPL should focus on four key directions, establishing multi-omics data, exploring targeted intervention strategies on key regulatory nodes, advancing the standardization process of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine prevention and treatment technologies, and constructing stratified screening and intervention platforms. The in-depth integration of TCM microcosmic mechanism of action with its macroscopic syndrome differentiation and treatment system, coupled with interdisciplinary research, will provide valuable references for the clinical treatment and scientific research of GPL.

Objective:To construct and evaluate a training program for cardiovascular nurse specialists based on a core competency framework.Methods:Among 61 trainees participating in the first training class for cardiovascular nurse specialists organized by a provincial nursing society, a training program focusing on the nine core competencies for cardiovascular nurse specialists was implemented, which consisted of 4-week theoretical and 4-week practical training. The effectiveness of the training program was evaluated using the Kirkpatrick model. Data analyses were performed by using SPSS 26.0. Categorical data were presented as the number of cases; continuous variables in normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation; and continuous variables in non-normal distribution were presented as median (interquartile range) and compared using non-parametric tests.Results:At the reaction level, the satisfaction rates of trainees with the theoretical and practical sections of the training program were 98.36% (60/61) and 95.08% (58/61), respectively. At the learning level, the comprehensive assessment score of the trainees was (83.01±3.39) points, and all of them successfully obtained their completion certificates, with a pass rate of 100.00% (61/61). At the behavior level, the core competencies for cardiovascular nurse specialists were significantly improved after training [the total score increased from 291.00 (254.00, 334.25) to 410.50 (354.50, 433.00), P<0.001]. At the results level, at six months after training, there were significant increases in the number of participants engaging in cardiovascular care practices, clinical nursing education and guidance, leadership roles, and research projects within their units as well as the number of individuals achieving career advancement (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The trainees are highly satisfied with the core competency-focused cardiovascular nurse training program, which can improve core competencies and cardiovascular nursing capabilities, expand the scope of cardiovascular nursing services, and foster the sustained advancement of the participants.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of L-mimosine on the proliferation and apoptosis of melanoma cells and its molecular mechanisms.METHODS The effects of different concentrations of L-mimosine on the viability of melanoma A375 and B16 cells were examined by the MTT assay.The ability of L-Mimosine to affect colony formation was assessed by the plate colony for-mation assay.The effects of L-mimosine on cell apoptosis,reactive oxygen species(ROS),and mitochondrial membrane potential were analyzed by flow cytometry.The changes in the expression levels of intracellular proteins such as Bcl-2,Bax,Cyt C,Cleaved Caspase-3,Cleaved Caspase-9,Bim-EL,Bad,p-JNK,p-c-Jun,p-MKK4,and p-ASK1 were detected by Western blot.The tumor-bearing mouse model was subjected to histological and TUNEL staining analysis of tumor tissues after treatment with normal saline,L-mimosine alone,and L-mimosine in combination with N-acetylcysteine(NAC).RESULTS L-mimosine significantly inhibited the prolifera-tion of A375 and B16 cells and significantly promoted cell apoptosis.Western blot analysis showed that L-mimosine could significantly increase the content of Apaf-1 and Cyt C in the cytoplasm,up-regulate the expression of Cleaved PARP,Cleaved Caspase-3,Cleaved Caspase-9,Bax,Bim-EL and Bad,and down-regulate the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2.Further experiments showed that L-mimosine significantly induced the accumulation of ROS in A375 cells and activated the JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway,which was manifested by the significant increase of p-JNK,p-c-Jun,p-MKK4 and p-ASK1.Additionally,the antioxidant NAC could significantly antagonize the ROS accumulation induced by L-mimosine,thereby reversing the pro-apoptotic effects of L-mi-mosine on melanoma cells.In vivo experiments,NAC also significantly antagonized the tumor growth inhibition induced by L-mi-mosine,as evidenced by increased tumor volume and reversed expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins.CONCLUSION L-mi-mosine induces apoptosis in melanoma cells by increasing ROS levels and activating the JNK/c-Jun signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of prenatal screening and genetic analysis in the diagnosis of fetal aberrant right subclavian artery(ARSA).Methods:The ultrasonographic features of ARSA fetu-ses detected by prenatal ultrasound at the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital from October 2017 to March 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The fetuses were divided into isolated ARSA group and complicated ARSA group.Their genetic analysis results and pregnancy outcome were analyzed.Results:Among 30,260 preg-nant women,185 fetuses were diagnosed with ARSA by prenatal ultrasound screening,with an incidence of 0.6%;5 fetuses(2.6%)were diagnosed by ultrasound in the first trimester,and the remaining were diagnosed by fetal grade Ⅲ structural ultrasound examination at 20~24 weeks' gestation.Among them,158 fetuses(85.4%)had isolated ARSA,and 27(14.6%)had complicated ARSA.Among fetuses with ARSA and other structural abnormal-ities,cardiovascular system accounted for the highest proportion(44.4%),followed by nervous system(22.2%)and urinary system(22.2%).Through genetic analysis,8.3%(4/48)fetuses with isolated ARSA and 40.0%(4/10)fetuses with complicated ARSA were found to have chromosomal numerical or structural abnormalities,with statis-tically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.024).Genetic analysis was completed in 48 isolated ARSA,and the positive rate of pathogenic copy number variants(CNV)was 4.2%(2/48),which was not signifi-cantly different from the pathogenic CNV incidence rate of 0.4%(1/239)in elderly pregnant cases during the same period(P=0.074).The Down syndrome positive likelihood ratio(LR+)for isolated ARSA was 2.5 and the Down syndrome LR+for complicated ARSA was 49.6.Conclusions:Complicated ARSA is often associated with cardiovascular abnormalities and is more likely to develop Down syndrome than isolated ARSA.Although the inci-dence of pCNV in isolated ARSA is slightly higher than the natural incidence,the correlation between pCNV and i-solated ARSA has not been clearly determined by the current sample size.
