ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution characteristics and correlation of paired oral and esophageal microbiota in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). MethodsA total of 46 pathologically confirmed ESCC patients were enrolled, and oral swabs and cancerous tissue samples were collected. The microbial composition was analyzed using 16S rRNA gene sequencing, and bioinformatics methods were employed to compare the microbiota diversity, compositional differences, and correlations between the two sites. ResultsThe Alpha diversity of the oral microbiota in ESCC patients was significantly higher than that of their esophageal microbiota, though the overall community structure was similar between the two sites. LEfSe analysis revealed that Spirochaetes, Prevotella, Catonella, Enterococcus, Fusobacterium periodonticum, Veillonella parvula, Capnocytophaga sputigena, and Neisseria subflava were significantly enriched in ESCC tumor tissues. In contrast, Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Streptococcus, Neisseria, Haemophilus, Streptococcus mitis, Haemophilus parainfluenzae, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Haemophilus haemolyticus, and Prevotella tannerae were significantly enriched in the oral cavity. Correlation analysis demonstrated significant associations between the two sites at taxonomic levels such as Spirochaetes, Treponema, Granulicatella elegans, Neisseria macacae, Treponema amylovorum, Fusobacterium periodonticum, and Neisseria meningitidis (P<0.05). ConclusionThe oral and esophageal microbiota in ESCC patients exhibit both distinct differences and similarities. Oral microbiota may influence the esophageal microenvironment through migration or local immune modulation.

ObjectiveTo construct and validate a predictive model for hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD) by combining key indicators such as cytokines and Model for End-Stage Liver Disease (MELD) score, and to provide evidence-based support for the early identification of high-risk populations and the optimization of intervention strategies in clinical practice. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for 2 167 patients with ESLD who were admitted to The Third People’s Hospital of Kunming from January 2022 to December 2024, the patients were divided into a training set with 1 517 patients and a validation set with 650 patients at a ratio of 7∶3 using the stratified random sampling method. A univariate analysis and a least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis were performed for the training set to identify potential influencing variables, and then a binary Logistic regression model was constructed to investigate the independent influencing factors for HE in ESLD patients. A nomogram prediction model was established based on this regression model, and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test was performed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curves, decision curve analysis, and clinical impact curve were used to comprehensively evaluate the degree of fit, accuracy, consistency, and clinical practicability of the predictive model derived from the training set. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed quantitative data between two groups. The chi-square test or Fisher exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. ResultsThe univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between the study group and the control group in age, sex, blood ammonia, lymphocytes, hemoglobin, platelet count, prothrombin time, fibrinogen, international normalized ratio, total bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase, total protein, albumin, prealbumin, alkaline phosphatase, cholinesterase, total bile acid, triglyceride, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, blood glucose, CD3+ T cells, CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, carcinoembryonic antigen, triiodothyronine, thyroxine, free triiodothyronine, free thyroxine, interleukin-1β, interleukin-5, interleukin-6, interleukin-8, interleukin-12p70, interleukin-17, interferon-γ, and MELD score (all P<0.05). The LASSO regression analysis identified nine variables of age, blood ammonia, albumin, prealbumin, cholinesterase, total cholesterol, thyroxine, interleukin-17, and MELD score, and the binary Logistic regression analysis showed that blood ammonia, interleukin-17, and MELD score were independent risk factors for HE in ESLD patients, while age and thyroxine were independent protective factors (all P<0.05). A nomogram model was constructed based on these five variables. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test in the training set showed a good degree of fit (P=0.207), with a McFadden’s pseudo-R2 of 0.184, suggesting that the model had acceptable explanatory power; the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test in the internal validation set further confirmed the calibration stability of the model (P=0.067), suggesting that the model had a good degree of fit in independent data. The model had an area under the ROC curve of 0.784 in the validation set, with a sensitivity of 0.710 and a specificity of 0.752. The mean absolute error of the calibration curve was 0.067, and decision curve analysis and clinical impact curve showed that the nomogram model had positive net benefit and good clinical practicability. ConclusionThe nomogram model constructed based on age, blood ammonia, thyroxine, interleukin-17, and MELD score for predicting HE in patients with ESLD has a good degree of fit, high accuracy and consistency, and excellent clinical practicability.

ObjectiveTo investigate the independent risk factors for concurrent myocardial injury before intervention in patients with primary hepatic carcinoma (PHC), to construct and validate a nomogram prediction model for the early identification of such patients, and to provide a basis for early clinical prevention and management. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 1 822 patients with PHC in two medical institutions from January 2019 to June 2025, among whom the 1 518 patients from The Third People’s Hospital of Kunming were used as the training set to construct the nomogram prediction model, and the 304 patients from The Second People’s Hospital of Baoshan were used as the validation set. According to the result of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T measurement before intervention, the patients with PHC were divided into myocardial injury group and non-myocardial injury group. The univariate analysis, the LASSO regression analysis, and the multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to identify the risk factors of concurrent myocardial injury in PHC patients before intervention, and then a nomogram prediction model was constructed based on these findings. The independent data of the 304 patients in the validation set were used for external validation, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), the Hosmer-Lemeshow test, the calibration curve, decision curve analysis, and clinical impact curve were used to assess model performance. ResultsIn the training set, there were 346 patients in the myocardial injury group and 1 172 patients in the non-myocardial injury group, and the prevalence rate of concurrent myocardial injury was 22.79%. The mean age was 56.44±9.45 years, and the male patients accounted for 81.49%. The patients with drinking, smoking, chronic hepatitis B, chronic hepatitis C, hypertension, diabetes, Child-Pugh class A liver disease, BCLC stage B liver disease, or abnormal electrocardiographic findings accounted for 49.34%, 57.44%, 61.73%, 32.48%, 22.66%, 17.19%, 50.53%, 33.86%, and 62.12%, respectively. The univariate analysis, the LASSO regression analysis, and the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age (odds ratio [OR]=1.051, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.036 — 1.067, P<0.001), history of diabetes (OR=1.862, 95%CI: 1.346 — 2.574, P<0.001), electrocardiographic findings (OR=1.446, 95%CI: 1.077 — 1.940, P=0.014), hemoglobin (HGB) (OR=0.993, 95%CI: 0.988 — 0.998, P=0.003), albumin (Alb) (OR=0.951, 95%CI: 0.930 — 0.972, P<0.001), and creatinine (Cr) (OR=1.021, 95%CI: 1.016 — 1.026, P<0.001) were independent influencing factors for myocardial injury in PHC patients. A regression equation was established as Logit(Y)=-3.406+0.050×age+0.621×history of diabetes+0.369×electrocardiogram-0.007×HGB-0.051×Alb+0.021×Cr, and a nomogram prediction model was constructed based on these factors. The Bootstrap internal validation of the model yielded an AUC of 0.743 (95%CI: 0.707 — 0.778), and the model had an AUC of 0.766 (95%CI: 0.738 — 0.794) in the training set and 0.730 (95%CI: 0.688 — 0.793) in the validation set. The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test yielded a P value of 0.716 for the training set and 0.408 for the validation set, suggesting that the model had a good degree of fitting. Calibration curves, decision curve analysis, and clinical impact curves in both the training set and the validation set showed that the model had a good clinical application value. ConclusionAge, history of diabetes, electrocardiographic findings, HGB, Alb, and Cr are independent influencing factors for myocardial injury in patients with PHC, and the nomogram prediction model constructed based on these factors has good discriminatory ability, accuracy, and clinical practicability.

BACKGROUND:Traumatic brain injury is a condition in which the normal function of the brain is disrupted by a bump or impact to the head.It is necessary to find effective treatments and objective targets that can help doctors diagnose the injury status and restore the brain function of patients. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of electroacupuncture combined with low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation on the electroencephalographic signals of rats with traumatic brain injury. METHODS:Forty 6-week-old SPF male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups:sham group,model group,electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group and combined group(electroacupuncture+low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation),with eight rats in each group.Feeney weight-drop method was used to establish the animal model of traumatic brain injury.In the sham group,the bone window was only opened without impact.Interventions were started at 1 day after modeling.Electroacupuncture in the electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation in the low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group,and electroacupuncture+low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation in the combined group were performed for days in total.The modified neurological severity scale score for assessing rats'neurological deficits was performed at 8 hours after modeling.The percentage of spontaneous alternation behavior in the Y-maze was measured at 7 days after modeling.Then,the electroencephalographic signals were collected and electroencephalographic data of α,β,θ,and δ waves were extracted by fast Fourier transform,and the value of oscillation amplitude and energy ratio were calculated in α,β,θ,and δ waves,as well as the Lempel-Ziv complexity and sample entropy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the sham group,the modified neurological severity scale scores in the model group,electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group and combined group were significantly increased at 8 hours after modeling(P<0.05).Compared with the sham group,the value of oscillation amplitude in δ wave and the value of δ energy ratio were significantly increased in the model group at 7 days after modeling,meanwhile the percentage of spontaneous alternation behavior in Y-maze,and the value of α/β energy ratio,Lempel-Ziv complexity,and sample entropy were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the value of oscillation amplitude in α and δ waves was significantly decreased in the combined group(P<0.05),while the value of α/β energy ratio was significantly increased(P<0.05)and the value of δ energy ratio was significantly decreased(P<0.05)in the electroacupuncture group,low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group and combined group.Compared with the electroacupuncture group and low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation group,the value of δ energy ratio was significantly decreased in the combined group(P<0.05),while the percentage of spontaneous alternation behavior,the value of α/β energy ratio,the Lempel-Ziv complexity,and the sample entropy were significantly increased(P<0.05).To conclude,abnormal electroencephalographic signals can appear in rats with traumatic brain injury,while the electroacupuncture combined with low-frequency transcranial ultrasound stimulation can alleviate the abnormal electroencephalographic signals in rats,which suggests the electroencephalographic frequency domain value and nonlinear features can be used to assess the severity of traumatic brain injury.

MethodsL9(34) orthogonal test was employed, and the AHP-CRITIC hybrid weighting method was utilized to determine the weight coefficients of the quality fractions of various components, including astragaloside Ⅳ, polygalaxanthone Ⅲ, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, tenuifolin, and 3,6′-disinapoylsucrose, as well as the dry extract yield. The comprehensive score of each factor level combination in the orthogonal test were calculated as evaluation indicator to select the optimal extraction process parameters. The effects of extraction times, extraction time, and solvent dosage on the aqueous extraction process of the formula were investigated through intuitive analysis, variance analysis, and grey relational analysis. Meanwhile, a BP-ANN model was established to reverse-predict the optimal extraction process parameters of Qizhi prescription, and the optimized process parameters were validated. ResultsThe weight coefficients of the five index components(astragaloside Ⅳ, tenuifolin, calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside, polygalaxanthone Ⅲ, and 3,6′-disinapoylsucrose) and dry extract yield were 25.7%, 20.82%, 16.41%, 12.45%, 15.96% and 8.67%, respectively. The optimized extraction process parameters were extracted 3 times with 8, 6, 6 times the amount of water, each time for 1 h. The network prediction results of BP-ANN test samples were consistent with the orthogonal test results, and the mean square error(MSE) of the predicted and measured values of the network was <1%. The water extraction process of Qizhi prescription analyzed and predicted by relevant mathematical models was stable and feasible, which could effectively improve the extraction efficiency of the active ingredients of Astragali Radix and Polygalae Radix, and the average comprehensive score of the validation test was 90.85 with the relative standard deviation(RSD) of 1.55%. ConclusionThis study establishes a water extraction process for compound Qizhi granules, and the optimized extraction process can effectively improve the extraction efficiency of active ingredients, which provides useful references for the optimization of preparation process and the establishment of quality standards for other clinical experience formulas.
