OBJECTIVE To investigate of the regulatory effects of Budi Shenlian Recipe on gut microbiota and the phenotypic transition of tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs)in colorectal cancer(CRC)mice.METHODS Forty male BALB/c mice were divided into blank control group,model group,positive control group,high-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group,and low-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group(n=8).CRC-bearing models were established by subcutaneous injection of CT26 cells.Additionally,10 male BALB/c mice were divided into the Budi Shenlian Recipe fecal microbiota transplantation(BFMT)group and model fecal microbiota transplantation(MFMT)group(n=5).The gut microbiota of these mice was cleared using a mixed solution of quadruple antibiotics,followed by subcutaneous injection of CT26 cells to construct pseudo-germ-free CRC-bearing mice.Fecal samples from the model group and high-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group were collected to prepare fecal microbiota solutions.The BFMT group received gavage with fecal microbiota solution from the high-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group,while the MFMT group received gavage with fecal micro-biota solution from the model group.Tumor volume changes were observed and recorded.HE staining was used to assess pathological changes in tumor tissues.16S sequencing was performed to analyze changes in gut microbiota.Flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining were used to evaluate the proportion of M1/M2 type TAMs in tumor tissues.ELISA was used to detect differences in TNF-α and IL-10 levels in tumor tissues.RESULTS Compared to the model group,the tumor volume of mice in the positive control group,high-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group,and low-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group grew more slowly(P<0.01).HE staining showed necrotic areas in tumor tissues and reduced mitotic figures in the positive control and Budi Shenlian Recipe groups compared to the model group.16S rRNA sequencing showed no significant differences in Chao1 and ACE indices between the high-dose Budi Shenlian Recipe group and the model group.PCoA analysis indicated a distinct microbial community structure between the blank group and mod-el group,with the microbial structure of CRC mice in the Budi Shenlian Recipe group closer to that of the blank group.Compared to the blank group,the model group showed a significant decrease in the proportion of Muribaculaceae,Muribaculum,Alloprevotella,and Prevotellaceae_UCG-001,and a significant increase in Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136_group,Bacteroides,and Helicobacter.After admin-istering Budi Shenlian Recipe to CRC mice,the community structure of some mice partially reverted to the level of the blank group.Transcriptome sequencing revealed that the most significant biological process(BP)among upregulated genes was the negative regulation of macrophage migration,suggesting that Budi Shenlian Recipe can reduce macrophage migration.Moreover,compared to the model group,the proportion of TAMs cells in the tumor tissues of the Budi Shenlian Recipe group significantly decreased(P<0.001).Simultaneously,compared to the model group,the proportion of M1 type TAMs in the Budi Shenlian Recipe group significant-ly increased(P<0.000 1),while the proportion of M2 type TAMs significantly decreased(P<0.05).Immunofluorescence analysis showed the same trend as flow cytometry.The content of TNF-α in tumor tissues of the Budi Shenlian Recipe group significantly in-creased(P<0.001),and IL-10 content significantly decreased(P<0.001).Additionally,compared to the MFMT group,the tumor volume in the BFMT group grew more slowly(P<0.0001).HE staining showed increased necrotic areas,sparser cell arrangement,and reduced pathological mitosis in the BFMT group.Furthermore,compared to the MFMT group,the proportion of TAMs cells in the tumor tissues of the BFMT group significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared to the MFMT group,the proportion of M1 type TAMs cells in the BFMT group increased(P<0.000 1),while the proportion of M2 type TAMs cells decreased(P<0.01).Immunofluores-cence analysis further confirmed that Budi Shenlian Recipe fecal microbiota transplantation can reduce the proportion of TAMs in the tumor tissues of CRC mice and promote the conversion from M2 to M1 type,thereby reducing immune suppression in the tumor micro-environment.CONCLUSION Budi Shenlian Recipe can improve gut microbiota dysbiosis in CRC mice and exert anti-CRC effects by reducing tumor infiltration of TAMs and modulating the phenotypic transition of TAMs.There may be a certain correlation between these two effects.

Most adult cases of depression originate during adolescence.In recent years,the incidence and suicide rate of adolescent depression raised gradually,seriously endangering physical and mental health as well as the life safety of minors.Resting-state functional MRI(rs-fMRI)was a core tool for exploring neurocognitive and psychiatric-behavioral disorders.The progresses in rs-fMRI research of adolescent depression with suicidal thoughts or behaviors were reviewed in this article.

Objective:To assess a value of dual energy index(DEI)and effective atomic number(Zeff)of dual-energy computed tomography(DECT)combined with slope of energy spectrum curve in identifying the component of urinary tract stones.Methods:The clinical and DECT imaging data of 111 patients with urinary tract stones who admitted to Nantong Haimen People's Hospital from October 2019 to October 2022 were selected,and the diameters of the urinary tract stones of all patients were<5 mm.The components of outside body stones of all patients were analyzed by infrared spectrum.The accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of the DEI,Zeff,slope of energy spectrum curve and the combination of the them were respectively calculated in identifying the components of urinary tract stones.Results:In 111 patients,the patients with calcium oxalate stones were 75(67.57%),and ones with hydroxyapatite were 15 cases(13.51%),and ones with uric acid stones were 21 cases(18.92%),and there were no other type of stone included cysteine.The differences of CT values(F=487.691,P<0.001),DEI values(F=395.553,P<0.001),Zeff values(F=818.689,P<0.001)and the slopes of energy spectrum curves(H=19.615,P<0.001)were statistically significant among the three types of stones.The overall accuracies of DEI,Zeff and slope of energy spectrum curve were 87.39%(97/111),84.68%%(94/111)and 81.98%(91/111)in identifying the components of urinary tract stone.The range of diagnostic accuracies of DEI,Zeff and the slope of energy spectrum curve was between 80%and 100%for calcium oxalate stones,hydroxyapatite and uric acid stones.The overall accuracy of DEI,Zeff combined with slope of energy spectrum curve was 94.59%(105/111)in identifying the components of urinary tract stones.The diagnostic accuracies of DEI,Zeff combined with slope of energy spectrum curve were respectively 94.59%,94.59 and 100%for calcium oxalate stones,hydroxyapatite and uric acid stones.Conclusion:Compared with the single indicator of DECT,the DEI and Zeff combined with the slope of the energy spectrum curve showed better diagnostic accuracy in identifying the components urinary track stones.

Objective:To explore the association of gait speed and cognitive function of the community-dwelling elderly.Methods:From March to December 2021, a total of 1 172 Xinxiang community-dwelling elderly people were investigated by general information questionnaire, mini-mental state examination(MMSE), patient health questionnaire depression scale and 4.6 m gait test. The elderly were divided into five groups based on the quintile grouping of gait speed values, with Q1 group (≤0.76 m/s), Q2 group (0.77-0.88 m/s), Q3 group (0.89-0.98 m/s), Q4 group (0.99-1.11 m/s) and Q5 group (≥1.12 m/s). SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used for descriptive statistics, and binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the influence of gait speed and depression on cognitive impairment of the elderly.Results:The gait speed of community-dwelling elderly people was (0.92±0.22) m/s. The scores of MMSE in Q1-Q5 groups were (24.72±3.67), (26.63±2.90), (26.58±2.66), (27.01±2.45) and (27.18±2.35), respectively, and the cognitive function was significantly different among the five gait speed groups( F=27.92, P<0.05). The results of binary Logistics regression showed that compared with Q1 group, the OR value (95% CI) of cognitive impairment in Q2-Q5 group were 0.475 (0.253-0.893), 0.426 (0.219-0.828), 0.421(0.212-0.826) and 0.371(0.179-0.766), respectively, which indicated that fast walking speed was a protective factor for cognitive function. Old age ( OR=1.096, 95% CI=1.053-1.140) and depression ( OR=14.441, 95% CI=12.670-19.829) were risk factors of cognitive impairment. Conclusion:The gait speed is associated with cognitive function among community-dwelling elderly people, and faster gait speed is a protective factor for cognitive function.

ObjectiveTo analyze the research hotspots and development trends of postpartum rehabilitation at home and abroad in the past ten years. MethodsCiteSpace 6.2.R2 was used to analyze the co-occurrence, cluster, and bursting of keywords of the relevant literature in the field of postpartum rehabilitation in CNKI and Web of Science (WOS) in the past ten years. ResultsTotally, 2 686 Chinese papaers were included in CNKI and 1 247 English papers were included in WOS. Both databases showed an increasing trend in the number of publications related to the field of postpartum rehabilitation, but the overall number of publications in CNKI grew faster and the total number of publications was more than that in WOS. For CNKI, there were 455 nodes, 1 102 links, with a density of 0.010 7; nine clusters were obtained; the bursting keywords showed that the diseases of concern shifted from breast distension and pain to pelvic floor diseases, and the hot spots of treatment methods shifted from Chinese medicine to electrical stimulation, biofeedback, and then pelvic floor training. For WOS, there were 463 nodes, 1 633 connected lines, with a density of 0.015 3; 14 clusters were obtained; the bursting keywords showed that the disease hotspots of concern shifted from anal prolapse and postpartum hemorrhage to organ prolapse, the hotspots of treatment methods shifted from analgesia to exercise, and the focus of research methods shifted from trial to qualitative research and meta-analysis. ConclusionDomestic postpartum rehabilitation started later than foreign countries. Although certain research results have been achieved, there is still a certain gap compared with the development of foreign postpartum rehabilitation.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors and effectiveness of community follow-up in patients with cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation.Method:A total of 132 patients who received CIED implantation in the Department of Cardiology of Tongren Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from February 2021 to February 2022 were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. Among them 33 patients were followed up in community health service centers associated with Tongren Hospital (community follow-up group) and 99 matched patients were followed up in the CIED outpatient clinic of the hospital (outpatient follow-up group) with a ratio of 1∶3. The clinical data of the selected patients were collected through a questionnaire survey; the follow-up data were extracted through the CarelinkExpress electronic follow-up platform and the CIED outpatient information system of Tongren Hospital. Adjustment of the treatment protocol or CIED parameters at follow-up, and the referral from the community health service centers were defined as visit with-an-action (VWA). The endpoint of follow-up was the occurrence of major adverse events. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing patient selection for community follow-up.Results:The univariate analysis showed that the frequency of visits to community health service centers and the service contracting rate in community follow-up group were higher than those of outpatient follow-up group ( P<0.05). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the contracted community physician service was an independent influencing factor of patient choosing community follow-up ( OR=2.143, 95% CI: 1.103-4.166, P=0.025). A total of 469 visits of followed up occurred in 132 patients, including 45 community visits and 424 outpatient visits. VWA accounted for 22.2% (10/45) in the community follow-up group, and 17.2% (73/424) in the outpatient follow-up group ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the safety and effectiveness indicators (VWA, major adverse events, and unplanned follow-up) between the two groups ( P>0.05). More patients in the community follow-up group walked to the hospital than the outpatient follow-up group ( P<0.05);and the main transportation for the later was by bus or taxi(42(42.4%)or 41(41.4%)). The average waiting time in the community follow-up group was significantly shorter than that in outpatient follow-up group ( P<0.05). The total time required for a single follow-up in the community follow-up group was 50.0 (45.0, 59.5) minutes, which was significantly shorter than that in the routine outpatient follow-up group (107.0 (90.0, 135.0) minutes, P<0.05). Conclusions:The contracting with community physicians is an independent influencing factor for CIED implanted patients to choose community follow-up. The safety and effectiveness of community follow-up are comparable to routine outpatient follow-up, and community follow-up is more convenient.

Objective:To explore the application of PDCA (plan, do, check, act) cycle theory in the teaching of eight-year clinical medical students for the course of Laboratory Diagnostics.Methods:From September 2021 to November 2022, the students majoring in clinical medicine of eight-year system who were studying the course of Laboratory Diagnostics at Peking Union Medical College were selected as the research objects. The teaching reform of the course of Laboratory Diagnostics was carried out according to the four stages of PDCA cycle theory, and the teaching effect was evaluated by the final examination results and questionnaire survey scores of the students.Results:The score of theoretical examination of eight-year students in 2018 was (86.7±4.68) points, which was higher than that of students in 2017 [(83.3±3.89) points], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The questionnaire survey results of the two groups of students showed that the rating of experimental course was higher than that of theoretical course ( P<0.05). After the teaching reform based on PDCA cycle theory, the questionnaire survey scores of theoretical course [(3.83±0.25) points vs (2.94±0.28) points] and experimental course [(4.13±0.09) points vs (3.32±0.12) points] in students of 2018 were higher than those of 2017 (all P<0.001). Conclusion:PDCA cycle theory provides new methods and ideas for teaching management, which helps to improve the performance of clinical medical students of eight-year system and their recognition of the course.
