Objective To explore the method for establishing a pig left lung orthotopic transplantation model. Methods A total of 4 male Yorkshire pigs weighing (40.0±2.5) kg underwent surgical procedures, including anesthesia, tracheal intubation, donor lung procurement, and recipient lung transplantation. Histological morphology and blood gas analysis of the transplanted lungs were assessed 2 hours after reperfusion to evaluate the histological changes and function of the transplanted lungs. Results The pigs underwent left lung in situ transplantation, effectively simulating conditions relevant to human lung transplantation. Two hours after the transplantation, arterial blood gas analysis showed that arterial partial pressure of oxygen was 155.4-178.6 mm Hg, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide was 53.1-62.4 mm Hg, and the oxygenation index was 310.8-357.2 mm Hg. Hematoxylin and eosin staining indicated a low degree of pulmonary edema and minimal cellular infiltration. Conclusion The pig left lung orthotopic transplantation model possesses strong operability and stability. Researchers can replicate this model according to the described methods and further conduct basic research and explore clinical translational applications.

INTRODUCTION: Lecanemab has shown promise in treating early Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its safety and efficacy in Chinese populations remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and 6-month clinical outcomes of lecanemab in Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild AD. METHODS: In this single-arm, real-world study, participants with MCI due to AD or mild AD received biweekly intravenous lecanemab (10 mg/kg). The study was conducted at Hainan Branch, Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Patient enrollment and baseline assessments commenced in November 2023. Safety assessments included monitoring for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and other adverse events. Clinical and biomarker changes from baseline to 6 months were evaluated using cognitive scales (mini-mental state examination [MMSE], montreal cognitive assessment [MoCA], clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes [CDR-SB]), plasma biomarker analysis, and advanced neuroimaging. RESULTS: A total of 64 patients were enrolled in this ongoing real-world study. Safety analysis revealed predominantly mild adverse events, with infusion-related reactions (20.3%, 13/64) being the most common. Of these, 69.2% (9/13) occurred during the initial infusion and 84.6% (11/13) did not recur. ARIA-H (microhemorrhages/superficial siderosis) and ARIA-E (edema/effusion) were observed in 9.4% (6/64) and 3.1% (2/64) of participants, respectively, with only two symptomatic cases (one ARIA-E presenting with headache and one ARIA-H with visual disturbances). After 6 months of treatment, cognitive scores remained stable compared to baseline (MMSE: 22.33 ± 5.58 vs . 21.27 ± 4.30, P = 0.733; MoCA: 16.38 ± 6.67 vs . 15.90 ± 4.78, P = 0.785; CDR-SB: 2.30 ± 1.65 vs . 3.16 ± 1.72, P = 0.357), while significantly increasing plasma amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42) (+21.42%) and Aβ40 (+23.53%) levels compared to baseline. CONCLUSIONS: Lecanemab demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Chinese patients with early AD. Cognitive stability and biomarker changes over 6 months suggest potential efficacy, though high dropout rates and absence of a control group warrant cautious interpretation. These findings provide preliminary real-world evidence for lecanemab's use in China, supporting further investigation in larger controlled studies. REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov , NCT07034222.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,numerous studies have shown that autophagy and mitophagy play an important role in the regulation of bone metabolism.Under non-physiological conditions,mitophagy breaks the balance of bone metabolism and triggers metabolism disorders,which affect osteoblasts,osteoclasts,osteocytes,chondrocytes,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,etc. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the mechanism of mitophagy in regulating bone metabolic diseases and its application in clinical treatment. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science,CNKI,WanFang and VIP databases were searched by computer using the keywords of"mitophagy,bone metabolism,osteoblasts,osteoclasts,osteocytes,chondrocytes,bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells"in English and Chinese.The search time was from 2008 to 2023.According to the inclusion criteria,90 articles were finally included for review and analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mitophagy promotes the generation of osteoblasts through SIRT1,PINK1/Parkin,FOXO3 and PI3K signaling pathways,while inhibiting osteoclast function through PINK1/Parkin and SIRT1 signaling pathways.Mitophagy leads to bone loss by increasing calcium phosphate particles and tissue protein kinase K in bone tissue.Mitophagy improves the function of chondrocytes through PINK1/Parkin,PI3K/AKT/mTOR and AMPK signaling pathways.Modulation of mitophagy shows great potential in the treatment of bone diseases,but there are still some issues to be further explored,such as different stages of drug-activated mitophagy,and the regulatory mechanisms of different signaling pathways.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of kidney-tonifying and liver-regulating cyclical therapy and its formula in regulating endometrial receptivity during the "implantation window" in rats with polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS）. MethodsSix rats were randomly selected from 36 SPF SD female rats as the normal group， and the remaining rats were administered letrozole to induce a PCOS model. By using a random number method， the rats were divided into the following groups： normal group， model group， Xiaoyaosan group （11.97 g·kg^-1）， Sanzi Yangmo decoction group （28.35 g·kg^-1）， cyclical therapy group （11.97/28.35 g·kg^-1）， and aspirin group （8 × 10^-3 mg·kg^-1）. After 12 days of continuous administration by gavage （equivalent to three estrous cycles）， female and male rats were co-housed. On the fifth day of pregnancy， the number of blastocyst implantation in each group was counted. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the pathological morphology of rat endometrial tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure the levels of estradiol （E₂） and progesterone （P） in rat serum. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）， progesterone receptor （PR）， estrogen receptor （ER）， androgen receptor （AR）， and integrin（ITG） αvβ3 in rat endometrial blood vessels. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the mRNA expression of miR-140-5 P， VEGF， vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 （VEGFR2）， PR， ER， AR， and ITGαvβ3 in rat endometrium. ResultsCompared with normal group， the estrous cycle of the rats in model group continued to be in the estrus interval and the estrous cycle lost regular changes. The endometrium was significantly thinner， the number of uterine glands and blood vessels were significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the pregnancy rate was significantly reduced. Compared with the model group， each drug group restored the regular estrous cycle to varying degrees， and the endometrial thickness and the number of blood vessels were significantly improved （P<0.01）. The pregnancy rate of each drug group increased， and the effect of the cycle therapy group could reach the normal level. The results of molecular biology experiments showed that compared with the normal group， the levels of serum E₂ and P in the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， the expression of VEGF， ER， PR and ITGαvβ3 protein was significantly decreased （P<0.05，P<0.01）， the expression of AR protein was significantly increased （P<0.01）， the expression of miR-140-5P and AR mRNA was significantly increased （P<0.01）， and the expression of VEGF， VEGFR2， ER， PR and ITGαvβ3 mRNA was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with model group， the serum E₂ level in the Xiaoyaosan group was significantly increased （P<0.01）.The levels of E₂ and P in serum of rats in Sanzi Yangmo decoction group， cycle therapy group and aspirin group were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The expression of AR protein in each drug group was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The expression of VEGF and ITGαvβ3 protein in Xiaoyaosan group was significantly increased （P<0.01）. The expression of VEGF， ER and PR protein in Sanzi Yangmo decoction group was increased to varying degrees （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The expression of VEGF， PR， ER and ITGαvβ3 protein in the cycle therapy group and the aspirin group increased to varying degrees （P<0.05，P<0.01）. The expression of miR-140-5P and AR mRNA in each drug group was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The expression of VEGF， VEGFR2， ER， PR and ITGαvβ3 mRNA in each drug group increased to varying degrees （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Compared with Xiaoyaosan group and Sanzi Yangmo decoction group， the expression of miR-140-5P， VEGFR2， ER， PR， AR and ITGαvβ3 mRNA in the cycle therapy group were significantly different （P<0.05，P<0.01）. ConclusionThe kidney-tonifying and liver-regulating cyclical therapy may reduce the activity of miR-140-5P， target the upregulation of VEGF expression， mediate angiogenesis， and promote endometrial angiogenesis， thereby playing a synergistic role in improving endometrial receptivity in PCOS-induced infertility. Its efficacy in increasing pregnancy rates surpasses that of Xiaoyaosan or Sanzi Yangmo decoction used alone.

This study employed the "disease-medicine-dose" pattern to mine the medication rules of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) prescriptions containing Astragali Radix in ancient Chinese medical books, aiming to provide a scientific basis for the clinical application of Astragali Radix and the development of new medicines. The TCM prescriptions containing Astragali Radix were retrieved from databases such as Chinese Medical Dictionary and imported into Excel 2020 to construct the prescription library. Statical analysis were performed for the prescriptions regarding the indications, syndromes, medicine use frequency, herb effects, nature and taste, meridian tropism, dosage forms, and dose. SPSS statistics 26.0 and IBM SPSS Modeler 18.0 were used for association rules analysis and cluster analysis. A total of 2 297 prescriptions containing Astragali Radix were collected, involving 233 indications, among which sore and ulcer, consumptive disease, sweating disorder, and apoplexy had high frequency(>25), and their syndromes were mainly Qi and blood deficiency, Qi and blood deficiency, Yin and Yang deficiency, and Qi deficiency and collateral obstruction, respectively. In the prescriptions, 98 medicines were used with the frequency >25 and they mainly included Qi-tonifying medicines and blood-tonifying medicines. Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma, Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma, and Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium were frequently used. The medicines with high frequency mainly have warm or cold nature, and sweet, pungent, or bitter taste, with tropism to spleen, lung, heart, liver, and kidney meridians. In the treatment of sore and ulcer, Astragali Radix was mainly used with the dose of 3.73 g and combined with Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma to promote granulation and heal up sores. In the treatment of consumptive disease, Astragali Radix was mainly used with the dose of 37.30 g and combined with Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma to tonify deficiency and replenish Qi. In the treatment of sweating disorder, Astragali Radix was mainly used with the dose of 3.73 g and combined with Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma to consolidate exterior and stop sweating. In the treatment of apoplexy, Astragali Radix was mainly used with the dose of 7.46 g and combined with Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma to dispell wind and stop convulsions. Astragali Radix can be used in the treatment of multiple system diseases, with the effects of tonifying Qi and ascending Yang, consolidating exterior and stopping sweating, and expressing toxin and promoting granulation. According to the manifestations of different diseases, when combined with other medicines, Astragali Radix was endowed with the effects of promoting granulation and healing up sores, tonifying deficiency and Qi, consolidating exterior and stopping sweating, and dispelling wind and replenishing Qi. The findings provide a theoretical reference and a scientific basis for the clinical application of Astragali Radix and the development of new medicines.

Medicinal plant underground diseases, typified by root rot, directly result in a significant reduction in both the yield and quality of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) because of its hidden occurrence and difficulty in prevention and control. Prevention and control measures depending on chemical pesticides bring potential risks to the safety of TCM and easily cause environmental pollution. The introduction of the new version of Good Agricultural Practice for Chinese Crude Drugs(GAP) and the enhancement of pesticide residue limit standards for TCM and decoction pieces in Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2025 edition) have elevated the requirements for green and efficient disease prevention and control technologies of TCM. This paper provided a comprehensive overview of the advancements over the past two decades in the diversity of pathogens, characteristics and hazards associated with disease occurrence, the main prevention and control agents currently registered, and the prevention and control techniques for TCM root rot. In light of the environmental backdrop of global climate change and the increasing frequency of disastrous climates, coupled with the challenges encountered in root rot prevention and control amidst the new paradigm of large-scale and standardized cultivation of TCM, the paper proposed the key direction of basic research and the application strategy for new technologies that integrate "early prevention and control-soil health-digital monitoring", including precise pathogen identification and early disease diagnosis, exploration of host disease resistance mechanisms and disease-resistant breeding, field soil health and ecological regulation, monitoring of fungicide resistance and rational pesticide use, as well as the integration of digital technology and intelligent plant protection. The ultimate goal is to advance the application of green plant protection technology in TCM, thereby providing robust scientific and technological support to ensure the healthy and sustainable development of the TCM agriculture sector.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prognostic significance of combined coagulation and fibrinolysis marker analysis in predicting the development of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) following proximal femoral anti-rotation intramedullary nail (PFNA) surgery in elderly patients with intertrochanteric femur fractures. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 80 elderly patients who underwent PFNA treatment for intertrochanteric fractures between April 2019 and April 2023. There were 26 males and 54 females. The patients' ages ranged from 60 to 85 years old, with a mean age of (76.4±5.6) years old. According to the occurrence of DVT following PFNA, patients were categorized into two groups. The DVT group were 29 patients, comprising 10 males and 19 females with a mean age of (76.9 ± 6.1)years old. And the non-DVT group were 51 patients, consisting of 16 males and 35 females with a mean age of (75.3 ± 6.9 )years old. The prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), thrombin time(TT), plasma fibrinogen (FIB), plasma thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT), and D-dimer levels were compared between the two groups immediately post- PFNA surgery, as well as at 3 and 7 days postoperatively. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationship between plasma FIB, TAT, and D-dimer levels in patients who developed DVT. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between each coagulation and fibrinolysis index following PFNA surgery in elderly patients and the incidence of DVT. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was utilized to determine the predictive value of PT, APTT, TT, FIB, TAT, and D-dimer for postoperative DVT occurrence. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in PT, APTT, and TT between the two groups immediately post-surgery, at 3 days, and at 7 days (P>0.05). At immediately, 3 days and 7 days postoperatively in DVT group, FIB were (4.68±1.77), (6.73±2.02), (8.81±2.86) g·L^-1, TAT were (10.64±2.30), (12.88±3.45), (14.96±4.87) μg·L^-1 respectively. D-dimer were (635.00±100.88), (720.02±168.09), (810.47±170.19) μg· L^-1, respectively.In the DVT group FIB were (3.46±0.47), (3.55±0.52), (3.67±0.48) g·L^-1, TAT were (8.58±3.37), (8.69±3.48), (8.80±3.50) g·L^-1, D-dimer were (588.36±96.68), (589.58±96.45), (591.11±95.50) g·L^-1. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed significant positive correlations between FIB and D-dimer(r=0.428, 0.523, P<0.05), FIB and TAT(r=0.517, 0.411, P<0.05), as well as TAT and D-dimer(r=0.602, 0.596, P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that FIB OR=3.252, 95% CI(0.640, 3.975), P<0.01, TAT OR=1.461, 95% CI(1.059, 2.011), P<0.05, and D-dimer OR=3.830, 95%CI (2.032 to 7.213), P<0.01 were significantly associated with the development of DVT following PFNA surgery. The combined detection of PT, APTT, TT, FIB, TAT, and D-dimer demonstrates significantly greater predictive value for the occurrence of DVT following PFNA surgery compared to individual index detection (P<0.01). CONCLUSION The combined detection of PT, APTT, TT, FIB, TAT and D-D has a high predictive value for DVT in elderly patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture after PFNA, which is of vital importance in the early diagnosis of DVT and early prevention of pulmonary embolism and other serious complications.

PURPOSE: This study aims to identify the prevalence and risk factors of military training-related abdominal injuries and help plan and conduct training properly. METHODS: This questionnaire survey study was conducted from October 2021 to May 2022 among military personnel from 6 military units and 8 military medical centers and participants' medical records were consulted to identify the training-related abdominal injuries. All the military personnel who ever participated in military training were included. Those who refused to participate in this study or provided an incomplete questionnaire were excluded. The questionnaire collected demographic information, type of abdominal injury, frequency, training subjects, triggers, treatment, and training disturbance. Chi-square test and t-test were used to compare baseline information. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were used to explore the risk factors associated with military training-related abdominal injuries. RESULTS: A total of 3058 participants were involved in this study, among which 1797 (58.8%) had suffered training-related abdominal injuries (the mean age was 24.3 years and the service time was 5.6 years), while 1261 (41.2%) had no training-related abdominal injuries (the mean age was 23.1 years and the service time was 4.3 years). There were 546 injured patients (30.4%) suspended the training and 84 (4.6%) needed to be referred to higher-level hospitals. The most common triggers included inadequate warm-up, fatigue, and intense training. The training subjects with the most abdominal injuries were long-distance running (589, 32.8%). Civil servants had the highest rate of abdominal trauma (17.1%). Age ≥ 25 years, military service ≥ 3 years, poor sleep status, and previous abdominal history were independent risk factors for training-related abdominal injury. CONCLUSION More than half of the military personnel have suffered military training-related abdominal injuries. Inadequate warm-up, fatigue, and high training intensity are the most common inducing factors. Scientific and proper training should be conducted according to the factors causing abdominal injuries.

Objective:To observe and analyze the subtype-specific prognostic factors for visual recovery in patients with demyelinating optic neuritis (DON) after glucocorticoid pulse therapy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study. A total of 195 patients (249 eyes) with DON diagnosed by ophthalmology examination at Department of Ophthalmology, Xi'an People's Hospital (Xi'an Fourth Hospital) from January 2021 to December 2024 were included in the study. According to the results of serum antibody detection and clinical diagnostic criteria, the patients were divided into the neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD)-associated optic neuritis (ON) (NMOSD-ON) group, the myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antitide-associated ON (MOG-ON) group, and the double antibody negative ON group. They were 51 cases (58 eyes), 72 cases (103 eyes), and 72 cases (88 eyes) respectively. Baseline clinical data, imaging characteristics, and treatment protocols were collected. The primary endpoints were complete visual recovery [best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ≥ 1.0] and moderate recovery (BCVA ≥0.5) at 3 months post-onset. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify independent prognostic factors for visual outcomes within each subtype.Results:At 3 months post-onset, complete recovery rates were 9 (15.5%, 9/58) in the NMOSD-ON group, 64 (62.1%, 64/103) in the MOG-ON group, and 31 (35.2%, 31/88) in the double-seronegative ON group. The results of multivariate regression analysis showed that age [odds ratio ( OR) =0.901, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.854-0.950, P<0.001] and peak visual acuity ( OR=0.311, 95% CI 0.147-0.660, P=0.002) and the involvement of optic nerve length ≥1/2 ( OR=3.849, 95% CI 1.083-13.682, P=0.037) were the influencing factors for the complete recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the double antibody negative ON group. Age ( OR=0.958, 95% CI 0.933-0.983, P=0.001) was the only influencing factor for the complete recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the MOG-ON group. Peak visual acuity ( OR=0.288, 95% CI 0.090-0.927, P=0.037) and optic nerve involvement length ≥1/2 ( OR=19.974, 95% CI 1.905-209.559, P=0.013) were the influencing factors for the complete recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the NMOSD-ON group. Age ( OR=0.936, 95% CI 0.890-0.983, P=0.009), time from onset to intravenous infusion of methylprednisolone sodium succinate intervention ( OR=0.854, 95% CI 0.759-0.961, P=0.009), optic disc edema ( OR=4.405, 95% CI 1.108-17.512, P=0.035) and peak visual acuity ( OR=0.13, 95% CI 0.046-0.365, P<0.001) were the influencing factors for the moderate recovery of visual acuity in the affected eyes of the double antibody negative ON group. Peak visual acuity was the only influencing factor for the moderate recovery of visual acuity in the MOG-ON group ( OR=0.060, 95% CI 0.010-0.352, P=0.002) and the NMOSD-ON group ( OR=0.163, 95% CI 0.053-0.500, P=0.001). Conclusions:The prognostic factors for visual recovery in patients with DON after glucocorticoid pulse therapy are subtype-specific. Peak visual acuity is a common predictor for all subtypes. For NMOSD-ON and double antibody-negative ON, attention should be paid to the length of optic nerve lesions. MOG-ON is age-related. Early intravenous infusion of methylprednisolone sodium succinate for double antiantibody negative ON is more likely to achieve moderate vision recovery.
