ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Shenqi Yiliu prescription reverses cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer cells by regulating the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway-mediated glycolysis. MethodsThe human ovarian cancer A2780 cell line was intervened with progressively increasing doses of cisplatin （1 g·L^-1） to establish the cisplatin-resistant cell line A2780cisR， and the cell sensitivity to cisplatin was examined by the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay. High， medium， and low （39.9， 19.95， 9.98 g·kg^-1） doses of Shenqi Yiliu prescription-containing sera were used to treat A2780cisR cells for 48 h. Glucose consumption and lactate production were measured by the cuvette assay. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was employed to determine the activities of glucose transporter （GLUT）， phosphofructokinase （PFK）， and pyruvate kinase （PK）. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling （TUNEL） staining was used to detect apoptosis. Western blot was employed to quantify the protein levels of phosphorylated （p）-PI3K， p-Akt， p-mTOR， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2）， B-cell lymphoblastoma-2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X-protein （Bax）， and B-lymphoblastoma-2 gene-related promoter （Bad）. Real-time PCR was conducted to determine the mRNA levels of HK2， PKM2， Bax， Bcl-2， and Bad. ResultsThe median inhibitory concentration （IC₅₀） of cisplatin on A2780cisR cells was nearly 3 times that on A2780P cells. Compared with A2780P cells， A2780cisR cells showed increased glucose consumption， lactate production， GLUT， PFK， and PK activities， and mRNA and protein levels of p-PI3K， Akt， p-mTOR， HK2， PKM2， Bax （P<0.05）， and decreased apoptosis rate and Bcl-2 expression （P<0.05）. Compared with A2780cisR cells， medium- and high-dose Shenqi Yiliu prescription reduced the glucose consumption， lactate production， GLUT， PFK， and PK activities， and mRNA and protein levels of p-PI3K， Akt， p-mTOR， HK2， PKM2， Bax， and Bad （P<0.05）， while increasing the apoptosis rate and Bcl-2 expression （P<0.05）. ConclusionShenqi Yiliu prescription can inhibit glycolysis mediated by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway to promote apoptosis， thereby reversing cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer cells.

Uveal melanoma(UM)is a rare but highly aggressive intraocular malignancy. Although it accounts for less than 5% of all melanoma cases, UM is the most common primary intraocular malignancy in adults. In recent years, advances in molecular targeted therapies and immunomodulatory strategies have provided new opportunities for the clinical management of UM. This review summarizes the pathogenesis, molecular biomarkers, and major therapeutic advances in UM, with particular emphasis on analyzing the research achievements and clinical application prospects of signaling pathway-targeted inhibitors, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and combination treatment strategies. The potential value of individualized treatment and the limitations of current therapeutic approaches are also discussed. Current evidence suggest that multidisciplinary intervention and precision molecular diagnosis and treatment may significantly improve the prognosis of patients with UM, providing references for future clinical research and the optimization of therapeutic strategies.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

This paper Summarizes the experience of national renowned Chinese medical practitioner professor YANG Jun in treating lumbar pain with acupuncture and moxibustion.In the view of professor YANG Jun,the etiology of lumbar pain is various and the pathogensis is complex,of which mainly related to be invaded by external pathogen,meridians obstructing blockage,kidney deficiency due to elderly,less of moistening due to kidney essence deficiency,sprain caused by fall and strike,and blood stasis obstructing meridians,and the syndrome differentiation of lumbar pain usually involves cold-damp obstructing blockage,kidney essence deficiency,and blood stasis blocking collaterals.The waist is the residence of kidney,kidney meridian runs through the spine and connecting it to the kidney,the bladder meridian locates on both sides of the spine and connecting it to the kidney,the circulation of governor vessel(GV)to the kidney,so the pathogensis of lumbar pain is closely related to kidney,bladder meridian,governor vessel.The basic pathogensis of lumbar pain is meridian qiand blood stasis stagnation,or the meridian less of moistening due to kidney essence deficiency,both of which cause pain.The main therapeutic principle for lumbar pain should be focusing on mind-regulating and meridians-dredging,cold-dispersing and damp-removing,kidney-boosting and blood-activating,as well as collateral-unblocking and pain-relieving,combining the lumbosacral spinal tri-needling,regulating the bladder meridian with moxibustion and electro-acupuncture,thus to achieve the optimal quantitative and effective state.

Objective To reveal the development characteristics of fat percentage and muscle mass in three nomadic populations in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu.Methods Bioelectrical impedance analysis was used to determine the values of 13 indexes of fat percentage and muscle mass in 263 cases of Gansu Kazakhs,400 cases of Gansu Mongols,and 362 cases of Yugu adults.Results In the three nomadic populations of the Hexi Corridor,visceral fat level of males was significantly positively correlated with age,while total body muscle mass and estimated bone mass were significantly negatively correlated with age.In females,percent body fat,visceral fat grade,percent left and right upper limb fat,percent right lower limb fat and percent trunk fat were all significantly positively correlated with age,while trunk muscle mass was significantly negatively correlated with age.The result of principal component analysis showed that the three nomadic populations in the Hexi Corridor were close to each other in terms of fat percentage and muscle mass characteristics,with high visceral fat grades in males and normal visceral fat grade in females.Among the 13 populations,three nomadic groups in the Hexi Corridor had high fat percentage and muscle mass.Overall,the nomadic population had greater fat percentage and muscle mass than the semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral population,and even more significantly greater than the agrarian population.The long-term integration of the historical Hexi Corridor populations result ed in the relative proximity of the genetic structure of three nomadic populations,which was a genetic factor for the proximity of their fat percentage and muscle mass.Higher per capita disposable income was a socio-economic factor for high fat percentage and muscle mass among Gansu Kazakhs and Gansu Mongolians.Low average annual temperature was an environmental factor for high muscle mass among Gansu Kazakhs and Yugus.Conclusion Gansu Kazakhs,Gansu Mongols,and Yugus have the fat percentage and muscle mass characteristic of northern Chinese populations.

OBJECTIVE To explore the efficacy and safety of different doses of bupivacaine liposome （referred to as “LB”） in posterior quadratus lumborum block （QLB） for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing cesarean section （CS）. METHODS In prospective research method， a total of 168 patients undergoing CS admitted to Chongzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital from June to December 2024 were randomly divided into LB1 group， LB2 group， and LB3 group （LB of 199， 133 and 67 mg， respectively） according to the random number sorting method， with 56 cases in each group. All patients underwent CS after combined spinal-epidural anesthesia， and received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia and bilateral posterior QLB with different doses of LB after the operation. Visual analogue scale score， Ramsay sedation score， the presence of postoperative block planes and muscle strength classification were observed in the three groups of patients at 6， 12， 24， 48 and 72 hours after the operation. The time of the first compression of the analgesic pump， the dosage of sufentanil and butorphanol within 72 hours after surgery， the number of compressions of the analgesic pump， the analgesic rescue rate， the time of initiating lactation， the score of neonatal behavioral neurological assessment （NBNA）， the time of postoperative exhaust， the indwelling time of urinary catheter， the length of hospital stay， and the total satisfaction at 72 hours after surgery were compared. The occurrence of adverse reactions within 72 hours after the operation was recorded. RESULTS The resting and motor pain scores， the dosage of sufentanil and butorphanol within 72 hours after surgery， the number of compressions of the analgesic pump， the analgesic rescue rate， and the time of initiating lactation at 6， 12， 24， 48 and 72 hours after surgery in the LB1 group and the LB2 group were significantly lower or shorter than those in the LB3 group（P＜0.05）. The proportion of postoperative block planes at 24， 48 and 72 hours after surgery， the time of the first compression of the analgesic pump and the total satisfaction in the LB1 group and the LB2 group were significantly higher or longer than those in the LB3 group（P＜0.05）. The proportion of patients with muscle strength≤grade 3 at 6 hours after surgery in the LB1 group was significantly higher than that in the LB2 and the LB3 groups （P＜0.05）. There were no statistically significant differences in the Ramsay sedation scores at each time point after surgery， NBNA scores， postoperative exhaust time， urinary catheter indwelling time， the length of hospital stay， as well as the occurrence of adverse reactions among the 3 groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Compared with 67 mg of LB， 199 mg and 133 mg of LB can improve the postoperative analgesic effect and total satisfaction of CS patients undergoing posterior QLB， reduce the use of postoperative analgesic drugs， and shorten the time to start lactation. Compared with 199 mg and 133 mg of LB， 67 mg of LB has a smaller impact on the motor function of CS patients. All three doses of LB had no significant effect on the neurobehavioral abilities of newborns, and demonstrated comparable sedative efficacy and safety.

Avian coccidiosis, an acute parasitic disease that mainly harms chicks, is widely prevalent across the world, which poses a serious threat to poultry industry. Because of the single prophylactic formulations, veterinary clinical treatment of coccidiosis mainly relies on chemically synthesized agents, polyether ionophores and Chinese herbal medicines. The introduction of novel anticoccidial drugs is slow for a long period of time, and there is an increasing problem of anticoccidial drug resistance following long-term use, which has become an urgent problem to be solved in poultry industry. This review summarizes the levels of anticoccidial drug resistance across China from 2018 to 2023, and analyzes the resistance to various anticoccidial agents in coccidia. It is indicated that the overall prevalence of anticoccidial drug resistance is high in coccidia, and development of novel anticoccidial agents and products with reduced antibiotics use and alternatives of antibiotics is of an urgent need.
