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.

This paper outlines the development of artificial intelligence （AI） and its applications in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） research， and elucidates the roles and advantages of large language models， knowledge graphs， and natural language processing in advancing syndrome identification， prescription generation， and mechanism exploration. Using spleen-stomach diseases as an example， it demonstrates the empowering effects of AI in classical literature mining， precise clinical syndrome differentiation， efficacy and safety prediction， and intelligent education， highlighting an upgraded research paradigm that evolves from data-driven and knowledge-driven approaches to intelligence-driven models. To address challenges related to privacy protection and regulatory compliance in cross-institutional data collaboration， a "trusted federated evidence-based analysis platform for TCM spleen-stomach diseases" is proposed， integrating blockchain-based smart contracts， federated learning， and secure multi-party computation. The deep integration of AI with privacy-preserving computing is reshaping research and clinical practice in TCM spleen-stomach diseases， providing feasible pathways and a technical framework for building a high-quality， trustworthy TCM big-data ecosystem and achieving precision syndrome differentiation.

Objective: To investigate and analyze the IgM/IgG antibody titer levels and population characteristics of local type O blood donors, and to provide data support for the establishment of a low-titer group O blood donor bank. Methods: Whole blood samples were collected from 527 type O blood donors. The agglutination of IgM and IgG anti-A/anti-B antibodies at titers 64 and 128 was assessed using an enzyme immunoassay reader. The distribution of antibody agglutination was displayed using GraphPad Prism 9.5. Statistical analysis was performed to compare antibody agglutination differences among donors of different genders, age groups, and donation frequencies. Results: At a titer of 64, the non-agglutination rate of IgM anti-A/anti-B was 71.35%, and that of IgG anti-A/anti-B was 54.46%. At a titer of 128, the non-agglutination rate of IgM anti-A/anti-B was 83.68%, and that of IgG anti-A/anti-B was 70.21%. At a titer of 64, the agglutination rate of IgM anti-B was significantly higher in female donors than in male donors (23.08% vs 13.71%, P<0.05). The agglutination rates of IgM anti-A/anti-B at a titer of 64 decreased with age in different age groups (anti-A: 26.22% vs 18.28% vs 8.49%; anti-B: 19.82% vs 11.83% vs 5.66%, P<0.05). The agglutination rates of IgM anti-A/anti-B at a titer of 64 were both higher in first-time donors than in repeat donors (anti-A: 24.00% vs 15.82%; anti-B: 18.00% vs 10.73%, P<0.05). The agglutination rate of IgG anti-A at a titer of 128 was higher in first-time donors than in repeat donors (26.57% vs 6.21%, P<0.05). Conclusion: The establishment of a low-titer type O whole blood donor bank should primarily target males, donors aged>30 years and repeat donors, with both IgM and IgG antibodies included in the antibody testing scope.

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of transurethral blue laser vaporization of the prostate, transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) or plasmakinetic resection of the prostate in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods The domestic and foreign clinical studies on transurethral blue laser vaporization of the prostate (observation group), TURP or plasmakinetic resection of the prostate (control group) in the treatment of BPH during Jan. 2015 and Mar. 2025 were retrieved. The data were extracted with Cochrane systematic review method. The operation time, decrease in hemoglobin, bladder irrigation time, catheter indwelling time, total complication rate, retrograde ejaculation rate and urinary incontinence rate of the two groups were compared with RevMan 5.3.0 statistical software. Results A total of 5 Chinese studies involving 491 patients (248 in the observation group and 243 in the control group) were included in the Meta-analysis. Compared with the control group, the observation group had shorter operation time [MD=-20.80, 95%CI:-26.88—-14.72, P＜0.00001], less decrease in hemoglobin [MD=-10.61, 95%CI: -20.21—-1.01, P=0.03], shorter bladder irrigation time [MD=-17.85, 95%CI: -32.62—-3.09, P=0.002], shorter catheter indwelling time [MD=-1.71, 95%CI: -2.81—- 0.62, P=0.002], lower total complication rate [OR=0.11, 95%CI: 0.06—0.21, P＜0.00001], lower retrograde ejaculation rate [OR=0.05, 95%CI: 0.02—0.16, P＜0.00001] and lower urinary incontinence rate [OR=0.24, 95%CI: 0.07—0.79, P=0.02]. There were no significant differences in other complications between the two groups (P＞0.05). The international erectile function score (IIEF-5) of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group [MD=1.87, 95%CI:1.16—2.57, P＜0.00001]. There were no significant differences in international prostate symptom score (IPSS), maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) and post-voiding residual (PVR) between the two groups (P＞0.05). Conclusion All three surgical procedures can effectively improve the lower urinary tract symptoms of BPH patients. Compared with TURP or plasmakinetic resection of the prostate, transurethral blue laser vaporization of the prostate has obvious advantages in terms of perioperative recovery, reduction of total complications, urinary incontinence and retrograde ejaculation rates, and preservation of sexual function.

The cornea is a transparent tissue essential for maintaining ocular refractive function and visual quality. Corneal injury and disease remain major causes of visual impairment and blindness. However, conventional pharmacological therapies and corneal transplantation are still limited by immune rejection, donor tissue shortage, and suboptimal long-term outcomes. Exosomes, a subtype of extracellular vesicles(EVs)secreted by various cell types, are enriched in bioactive molecules such as proteins, lipids, mRNA, and miRNA. Owing to their low immunogenicity, favorable biocompatibility, capacity to stably deliver key signaling molecules involved in inflammation regulation and tissue repair, and suitability for local corneal administration, exosomes partially overcome the limitations of traditional corneal therapies in terms of precise immunomodulation and repair efficiency, thereby demonstrating considerable research value. This review systematically summarizes the biological characteristics of exosomes and recent advances in the application of exosomes derived from different sources in corneal injury repair, inflammation and immune regulation, and related corneal diseases, with a particular focus on their underlying mechanisms and therapeutic potential, aiming to provide a reference for standardized research and clinical translation of exosome-based therapies in corneal diseases.

Under the trend of increasing aging， integrated elderly care and medical services is an important measure to optimize the supply of elderly care services and promote the good death of the elderly. Using the cooperative production theory and the classical grounded theory， a qualitative analysis was conducted on 38 cases of elderly palliative care and 25 cases of hospital-based palliative care under the integrated elderly care and medical services model from a hospital in Nanning City using Nvivo 20.0 software. This paper found that the integrated elderly care and medical services mode emphasized the deep integration of medical and elderly care services by integrating resources and improving service efficiency， to achieve the basic experience of comprehensive health care for the elderly. The promotion of these experiences has a positive significance for building a multi-agent cooperative production system， strengthening personnel training， perfecting the performance distribution mechanism， and further promoting the development of the national palliative care pilot.

AIM: To explore the efficacy of 0.05% cyclosporine A combined with olopatadine eye drops in treating allergic conjunctivitis-related dry eye disease.METHODS: A total of 63 patients(63 eyes)with allergic conjunctivitis-related dry eye disease in the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from August 2022 to April 2023 were enrolled and randomly divided into control group(n=33)and observation group(n=30). The patients of the control group were administrated with 0.1% olopatadine eye drops and 0.3% sodium hyaluronate eye drops, while the observation group was administrated with 0.1% olopatadine eye drops and 0.05% cyclosporine A eye drops. The ocular surface disease index(OSDI), total ocular symptom score(TOSS), conjunctival congestion score, conjunctival papillae and follicle score, Schirmer I test(SⅠt), tear meniscus height(TMH), meibomian gland secretion ability and property score, meibomian gland loss area score, corneal fluorescein staining(CFS), tear film break-up time(BUT), noninvasive first tear film break-up time(NIBUTf), noninvasive average tear film break-up time(NIBUTav)before and after treatment and the drug safety during the treatment period of both groups of patients were evaluated.RESULTS: After treatment, OSDI, TOSS, conjunctival congestion score, conjunctival papillae and follicle score, SⅠt, TMH, meibomian gland secretion ability score and property score, CFS, BUT, NIBUTf, and NIBUTav of the observation group showed improvements compared with those before treatment(all P<0.017). Among these, OSDI, TOSS, conjunctival congestion score, conjunctival papillae and follicle score, BUT, NIBUTf, and NIBUTav demonstrated significant improvement compared with the control group(all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in meibomian gland loss area score between the two groups before and after treatment(P>0.05). During the treatment period, there were no local or systemic adverse reactions.CONCLUSION: The combined use of 0.05% cyclosporine A and olopatadine eye drops can significantly improve ocular discomfort symptoms of patients with dry eye disease associated with allergic conjunctivitis, such as red eyes, itchy eyes and foreign body sensation, promote tear film stability and have high safety.
