With the rapid advancement of hemodynamic indices and monitoring technologies, their classification methods and application processes have become increasingly complex. Currently, no unified standard hasbeen established, making it difficult to fully meet the clinical requirements for hemodynamic management. To assist in hemodynamic monitoring assessment and therapeutic decision-making in critically ill patients, the Critical Hemodynamic Therapy Collaborative Group, in conjunction with the Critical Ultrasound Study Group, has jointly developed the Standard for the Application of Hemodynamic Monitoring Techniques in Critical Care. The first part of this standard systematically categorizes hemodynamic indicators into flow indicators, pressure and its derivative indicators, and tissue perfusion indicators, while elaborating on the clinical application of each. The second part establishes a standardized clinical implementation pathway for hemodynamic monitoring. It proposes a tiered monitoring strategy-comprising basic, advanced, indication-specific, and special scenario monitoring-tailored to different clinical settings. It emphasizes the central role of critical care ultrasound across all levels of monitoring and establishes hemodynamic assessment standards for organs such as the brain, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. This standard aims to provide a unified framework for clinical practice, teaching, training, and research in critical care medicine, thereby promoting standardized development within the discipline.

Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is a chronic inflammatory liver disease mediated by T lymphocytes， and it can progress to liver cirrhosis or even liver failure without timely intervention. As a natural flavonoid compound， naringenin （NAR） shows a potential value in the prevention and treatment of AIH through multiple mechanisms such as remodeling immune homeostasis， targeted inhibition of inflammatory pathways， antioxidation， regulating hepatocyte metabolism and apoptosis， improving mitochondrial function， and regulating intestinal flora. However， the clinical translation and application of NAR is limited by issues such as low bioavailability and insufficient efficiency of liver-targeted delivery. This article systematically reviews the mechanism of action of NAR in the prevention and treatment of AIH， explores the potential signaling pathways involved in this process， and analyzes existing challenges in its translation and application and future research directions， so as to provide a reference for further research on NAR and its application in the prevention and treatment of AIH.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Sini San （SNS） treats liver fibrosis through regulating the polarization of intrahepatic Kupffer cells. MethodsSixty SPF-grade male Balb/c mice were randomized into blank control， model， silymarin （0.2 g·kg^-1）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.93， 5.85， 11.70 g·kg^-1， respectively） SNS groups. A mouse model of liver fibrosis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of CCl₄. After 5 weeks of administration， the body mass， liver pathological changes ［Hematoxylin and Eosin （HE）， Masson， and Sirius red staining］， serum biochemical indicators ［alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， and alanine aminotransferase （ALT）］， liver fibrosis markers ［procollagen type Ⅲ （PCⅢ）， laminin （LN）， and hyaluronic acid （HA）］， inflammatory cytokines ［interleukin-6 （IL-6）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10）］， and fibrosis-related proteins ［α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， collagen type Ⅰ （Col Ⅰ）， and collagen type Ⅲ （Col Ⅲ）］ were assessed. A co-culture system of THP-1 cells （M1 macrophages） and human hepatic stellate cells （LX-2） was established. The cell experiment was designed with blank control （LX-2 alone）， model （LX-2 + M1 macrophages）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose SNS （co-culture with 5%， 10%， or 20% SNS-containing serum， respectively） groups. Cell viability， inflammatory cytokines， and macrophage phenotype were examined. Human primary hepatic Kupffer cells were allocated into blank control， M1 （LPS 100 μg·L^-1+IFN-γ 20 μg·L^-1）， M2 （IL-4 20 μg·L^-1+IL-13 20 μg·L^-1）， M1+M2， M1+SNS （supplemented with 10% SNS-containing serum for 2 h after culture under M1 conditions for 24 h）， M2+SNS （supplemented with 10% SNS-containing serum for 2 h after culture under M2 conditions for 24 h）， and M1+M2+SNS groups （supplemented with 10% SNS-containing serum for 2 h after culture under M1+M2 conditions for 24 h）， and the expression of nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） p65 and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） at protein and mRNA levels was determined. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group exhibited increased serum levels of ALT， AST， ALP， PCⅢ， LN， HA， IL-6， and TNF-α， upregulated protein and mRNA levels of α-SMA， Col Ⅰ， and Col Ⅲ in the liver tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and decreased IL-10 level and STAT3 mRNA level （P<0.05， P<0.01）， accompanied by marked collagen deposition and inflammatory infiltration in the liver. Compared with the model group， all doses of Sini San reversed these alterations （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with the high-dose group showing the most pronounced effects. Cell experiments demonstrated that， compared with the blank control group， the model group had elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines （IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α） and upregulated protein and mRNA levels of M1 markers ［cluster of differentiation 86 （CD86， inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 （MCP-1）］ （P<0.01）， along with declined level of IL-10 and downregulated expression of M2 markers ［（CD163， CD206， and arginase-1 （Arg-1）］ （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， treatment with Sini San-containing serum at various concentrations lowered the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and expression of M1 markers （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while increasing the IL-10 level and M2 marker expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Additionally， Sini San downregulated the mRNA level of NF-κB and upregulated the mRNA level of STAT （P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the experiment with human primary Kupffer cells， compared with the blank group， the M1 group showed increased NF-κB p65 expression （P<0.01） and decreased STAT3 expression （P<0.05）， whereas the M2 group exhibited increased STAT3 expression （P<0.01）. Compared with the respective model groups， Sini San-containing serum reversed the M1-induced overexpression of NF-κB p65 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and further enhanced the M2-induced STAT3 expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSini San can inhibit the NF-κB p65/STAT3 signaling pathway and repolarize intrahepatic Kupffer cells from the pro-inflammatory M1 to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype to attenuate inflammation and suppress hepatic stellate cell activation and collagen deposition， thereby exerting anti-fibrotic effect.

It is believed that diabetes complicated with coronary heart disease is closely related to the functional interplay of the heart， spleen， and kidneys. This paper proposed the concept of the heart-spleen-kidney as a unified system for understanding and treating the disease. At the early stage， spleen and kidney deficiency leads to the internal accumulation of phlegm， dampness， and turbid lipids， causing impaired blood circulation and vascular obstruction， so treatment should focus on tonify the kidneys and strengthening the spleen， activating blood circulation and resolving stasis， using the self-prescribed Tangxin Maiwen Formula （糖心脉温方）. As the disease progresses， further decline of spleen and kidney function results in inadequate nourishment of the heart， leading to blood stasis and the accumulation of phlegm， dampness， and turbid lipids， which may transform into pathogenic heat and toxins， causing heart damage， then treatment should emphasize on boosting qi and nourishing yin， clearing heat， activating blood and resolving toxins， using the self-prescribed Tangxin Maiqing Formula （糖心脉清方）. In advanced stages， three zang organs， the heart， spleen， and kidneys， become severely impaired， leading to mental activity fail to be nourished and abnormal cognitive functions， so treatment should focus on harmonizing the three zang organs simultaneously， using the self-prescribed Yunpi Tiaoxin Decoction （运脾调心汤）. This approach aims to provide a clinical framework for the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes with coronary heart disease.

BACKGROUND: Disease-modifying therapies have been approved for the treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The present study aims to examine the safety of teriflunomide in Chinese patients with RMS. METHODS: This non-randomized, multi-center, 24-week, prospective study enrolled RMS patients with variant (c.421C>A) or wild type ABCG2 who received once-daily oral teriflunomide 14 mg. The primary endpoint was the relationship between ABCG2 polymorphisms and teriflunomide exposure over 24 weeks. Safety was assessed over the 24-week treatment with teriflunomide. RESULTS: Eighty-two patients were assigned to variant ( n  = 42) and wild type groups ( n  = 40), respectively. Geometric mean and geometric standard deviation (SD) of pre-dose concentration (variant, 54.9 [38.0] μg/mL; wild type, 49.1 [32.0] μg/mL) and area under plasma concentration-time curve over a dosing interval (AUC tau ) (variant, 1731.3 [769.0] μg∙h/mL; wild type, 1564.5 [1053.0] μg∙h/mL) values at steady state were approximately similar between the two groups. Safety profile was similar and well tolerated across variant and wild type groups in terms of rates of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE), treatment-related TEAE, grade ≥3 TEAE, and serious adverse events (AEs). No new specific safety concerns or deaths were reported in the study. CONCLUSION: ABCG2 polymorphisms did not affect the steady-state exposure of teriflunomide, suggesting a similar efficacy and safety profile between variant and wild type RMS patients.

BACKGROUND: The American Heart Association recently released a new cardiovascular health (CVH) metric, Life's Essential 8 (LE8), for health promotion. However, the association between LE8 scores and the risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD) remains uncertain. We aimed to explore the association of LE8 scores with new-onset CKD and examine whether socioeconomic deprivation and genetic risk modify this association. METHODS: A total of 286,908 participants from UK Biobank and without prior CKD were included between 2006 and 2010. CVH was categorized using LE8 scores: low (LE8 scores <50), moderate (LE8 scores ≥50 but <80), and high (LE8 scores ≥80). The study outcome was new-onset CKD, ascertained by data linkage with primary care, hospital inpatient, and death data. Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to investigate the association between CVH categories and new-onset CKD. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 12.5 years, 8857 (3.1%) participants developed new-onset CKD. Compared to the low CVH group, the moderate (adjusted hazards ratio [HR], 0.50; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.47-0.53) and high CVH (adjusted HR, 0.31; 95% CI: 0.27-0.34) groups had a significantly lower risk of developing new-onset CKD. The population-attributable risk associated with high vs. intermediate or low CVH scores was 40.3%. Participants who were least deprived ( vs.  most deprived; adjusted HR, 0.75; 95% CI: 0.71-0.79) and with low genetic risk of CKD ( vs.  high genetic risk; adjusted HR, 0.89; 95% CI: 0.85-0.94) had a significantly lower risk of developing new-onset CKD. However, socioeconomic deprivation and genetic risks of CKD did not significantly modify the relationship between LE8 scores and new-onset CKD (both P -interaction >0.05). CONCLUSION Achieving a higher LE8 score was associated with a lower risk of developing new-onset CKD, regardless of socioeconomic deprivation and genetic risks of CKD.

Colorectal cancer(CRC) is one of the most common malignant tumors worldwide, primarily originating from recurrent inflammatory bowel disease(IBD). Therefore, blocking the inflammation-cancer transformation in the colon has become a focus in the early prevention and treatment of CRC. The inflammation-cancer transformation in the colon involves multiple types of cells and complex pathological processes, including inflammatory responses and tumorigenesis. In this complex pathological process, immune cells(including non-specific and specific immune cells) and non-immune cells(such as tumor cells and fibroblasts) interact with each other, collectively promoting the progression of the disease. In traditional Chinese medicine(TCM), inflammation-cancer transformation in the colon belongs to the categories of dysentery and diarrhea, with the main pathogenesis being cold and heat in complexity. This paper first elaborates on the complex molecular mechanisms involved in the inflammation-cancer transformation process in the colon from the perspectives of inflammation, cancer, and their mutual influences. Subsequently, by comparing the pathogenic characteristics and clinical manifestations between inflammation-cancer transformation and the TCM pathogenesis of cold and heat in complexity, this paper explores the intrinsic connections between the two. Furthermore, based on the correlation between inflammation-cancer transformation in the colon and the TCM pathogenesis, this paper delves into the importance of the interaction between inflammation and cancer. Finally, it summarizes and discusses the clinical and basic research progress in the TCM intervention in the inflammation-cancer transformation process, providing a theoretical basis and treatment strategy for the treatment of CRC with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.

N,N-Dimethylglycine (DMG) is a glycine derivative, and its sodium salt (DMG-Na) has been demonstrated to possess various biological activities, including immunomodulation, free radical scavenging, and antioxidation, collectively contributing to the stability of tissue and cellular functions. However, its direct effects and underlying mechanisms in wound healing remain unclear. In this study, a full-thickness excisional wound model was established on the dorsal skin of mice, and wounds were treated locally with DMG-Na. Wound healing progression was assessed by calculating wound closure rates. Histopathological analysis was conducted using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and keratinocyte proliferation, migration, and differentiation were evaluated using CCK-8 assays, scratch wound assays, and quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). Inflammation-related cytokine expression in keratinocytes was analyzed via ELISA and qRT-PCR. Results revealed that DMG-Na treatment significantly accelerated wound healing in mice and improved overall wound closure quality. The wound healing rates on days 3, 6, and 9 were 49.18%, 68.87%, and 90.55%, respectively, with statistically significant differences compared to the control group ( P<0.05). DMG-Na treatment downregulated the mRNA levels of keratinocyte differentiation markers while enhancing cell proliferation and migration ( P<0.05). Furthermore, DMG-Na decreased the secretion of LPS-induced keratinocyte inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, TNF-α, and CXCL10 ( P<0.05). These findings indicate that DMG-Na regulates inflammatory responses and promotes keratinocyte proliferation and migration, thereby facilitating the healing of skin wounds.

Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a common autoimmune disorder that primarily targets exocrine glands, leading to hallmark manifestations of xerostomia and xerophthalmia, with potential progression to multisystem involvement. The rapid advances in omics technologies-including metabolomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics-have yielded substantial insights into SS pathophysiology. This review consolidates current evidence on omics-derived biomarkers in SS. Studies consistently implicate aberrant glucose metabolism, neutrophil-derived enzyme activity, mitochondrial bioenergetic impairment, ferroptosis, and apoptotic pathways as central to SS development. These findings refine our understanding of disease mechanisms and the heterogeneity of therapeutic responses. Hydroxyproline has emerged as a candidate marker for distinguishing SS from IgG4-related disease, whereas distinct cytokine and chemokine signatures may enable earlier diagnosis. Genomic analyses demonstrate a robust association between expression of the rs11797 locus and SS-related lymphomagenesis, and several genes controlling DNA methylation represent promising therapeutic targets. Collectively, these findings lay the groundwork for personalized risk stratification and intervention in SS. The review concludes by summarizing existing progress and outlining priorities for future omics-based investigations.
