ObjectiveTo unveil the mechanism of Jianpi Huogu prescription (JPHGP) in ameliorating the dyslipidemia of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femur head (SONFH) by oxylipidomics combined with transcriptomics. MethodsSixty SD rats were assigned into normal, model, low-, medium-, and high-dose (2.5, 5, 10 g·kg-1, respectively) JPHGP, and Jiangushengwan (1.53 g·kg-1) groups. Lipopolysaccharide was injected into the tail vein at a dose of 20 μg·kg-1 on days 1 and 2, and methylprednisolone sodium succinate was injected at a dose of 40 mg·kg-1 into the buttock muscle on days 3 to 5. The normal group received an equal volume of normal saline. Drug administration by gavage began 4 weeks after the last injection, and samples were taken after administration for 8 weeks. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted to reveal the histopathological changes of the femoral head, and the number of adipocytes, the rate of empty bone lacunae, and the trabecular area were calculated. Micro-computed tomography was used for revealing the histological and histomorphometrical changes of the femoral head. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the serum levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB). At the same time, the femoral head was collected for oxylipidomic and transcriptomic detection. The differential metabolites and differential genes were enriched and analyzed, and the target genes regulating lipid metabolism were predicted. The predicted target proteins were further verified by molecular docking, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group, the model group showcased thinning of the femoral head, trabecular fracture, karyopyknosis, subchondral cystic degeneration, increases in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae (P<0.01), a reduction in the trabecular area (P<0.01), decreases in BMD, Tb.Th, Tb.N, and BV/TV, and increases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the JPHGP groups showed no obvious thinning of the femoral head or subchondroidal cystic degeneration. The high- and medium-dose JPHGP groups presented declines in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae, an increase in the trabecular area (P<0.05, P<0.01), rises in BMD, Tb.Th, Tb.N, and BV/TV, and decreases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, the model group showcased raised serum levels of TG, TC, LDL, and ApoB and lowered serum levels of HDL and ApoA1 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the JPHGP groups had lowered serum levels of TG, TC, LDL, and ApoB (P<0.05, P<0.01) and a risen serum level of ApoA1 (P<0.05, P<0.01). Moreover, the serum level of HDL in the high-dose JPHGP group increased (P<0.01). A total of 19 different metabolites of disease set and drug set were screened out by oxylipidomics of the femoral head, and 119 core genes with restored expression were detected by transcriptomics. The enriched pathways were mainly concentrated in inflammation, lipids, apoptosis, and osteoclast differentiation. Molecular docking, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot results showed that compared with the normal group, the model group displayed increased content of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in the femoral head (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, medium- and high-dose JPHGP reduced the content of 5-LO and PPARγ (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionJPHGP can restore the levels of oxidized lipid metabolites by regulating the 5-LO-PPARγ axis to treat SONFH in rats. Relevant studies provide experimental evidence for the efficacy mechanism of JPHGP in the treatment of SONFH.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the components migrating to blood and metabolites of Polygonum cuspidatum in rats with acute gouty arthritis (AGA). METHODS SD rats were randomly divided into blank group, model group and P. cuspidatum group (10 g/kg, by raw material), with 6 rats in each group. Except for blank group, AGA model was induced in the remaining groups by injecting potassium oxonate and sodium urate; meanwhile, they were administered corresponding drug solutions or water intragastrically, once a day, for 10 consecutive days. The histopathological morphology of the knee joint tissues in rats was observed;rat serum samples were collected, and the components migrating to blood and metabolites of P. cuspidatum were analyzed by using UPLC-Q-Exactive-Orbitrap-MS. RESULTS Following the intervention with P. cuspidatum, the histopathological morphology of the knee joint synovial tissue in AGA rats showed significant improvement, with reduced inflammatory cell infiltration and hyperplasia, and the preservation of the honeycomb-like structure integrity. In both positive and negative ion modes, a total of 67 chemical components were detected in the serum of rats from P. cuspidatum group, including 25 prototype components and 42 metabolites. The involved compound types encompassed stilbenes, anthraquinones, naphthols, and flavonoids, among others. The metabolic reactions identified included methylation, acetylation, sulfation, and glucuronidation. Notably, compounds such as polydatin, resveratrol and emodin were capable of entering the bloodstream in their prototype forms and undergoing in vivo metabolism. CONCLUSIONS Compounds such as polydatin, resveratrol and emodin are likely to be the active components responsible for the anti-AGA effects of P. cuspidatum.

This paper aims to evaluate the pharmacodynamic effect and mechanism of Zhifuxin in the prevention and treatment of vascular dementia(VD), providing a theoretical basis for later development. Bilateral common carotid artery ligation in male Wistar rats was conducted to replicate the long-term hypoperfused VD model, and the drug was given to groups after one month. The rats were fed daily with nimodipine of 20 mg·kg~(-1), Zhifuxin of 50, 100, and 200 mg·kg~(-1), or the same volume of solvent for four weeks. 24 hours after the last dose, Morris water maze experiments were performed to detect the learning and memory abilities of rats. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in the brain tissue of rats; the immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of muscarinic acetylcholine receptors M1 and M4 in rats and determine the content of acetyl choline(Ach), acetylcholin esterase(AchE), malondialdehyde(MDA), choline acetyl transferase(ChAT), and dimethyl arginine hydrolase 1(DDAH1) in the cerebral cortex of rats. Western blot was employed to detect protein expression of endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS), caveolin-1, monoamine oxidase A(MAO-A), and monoamine oxidase B(MAO-B). RT-qPCR was utilized to detect mRNA expression of eNOS, caveolin-1, MAO-A, and MAO-B. The results showed that compared with the model group, the different doses of Zhifuxin were able to shorten the latency of VD rats in the water maze positioning navigation test, increase the number of crossing platforms in the space exploration test, and alleviate cone cell contracture in the hippocampus of VD rats. The expression of biochemical indicators related to the cholinergic system in the cerebral cortex: M1 and M4 receptors increased, as well as ChAT activity, and AchE activity significantly decreased. The protein and mRNA expression of indicators related to the eNOS/NO pathway: DDAH1 content, eNOS, and caveolin-1 increased, and that of indicators related to monoamine oxidase(MAO): MAO-A and MAO-B significantly decreased. The results show that Zhifuxin can improve cognition ability in long-term hypoperfused VD rats, and its mechanism of action may be related to its ability to modulate the cholinergic system and the eNOS/NO pathway and inhibit MAO expression.

ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors for rebleeding after endoscopic therapy and the effect of the number of sequential treatment sessions on postoperative rebleeding in patients with liver cirrhosis receiving secondary prevention of gastroesophageal varices (GOV). MethodsA total of 1 717 patients with liver cirrhosis who received secondary prevention of GOV and attended The 960th Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistice Support Force from January 2017 to December 2021 were enrolled, and according to the presence or absence of bleeding after endoscopic therapy, they were divided into non-bleeding group and rebleeding group. The influencing factors for rebleeding were analyzed, as well as the association between the number of endoscopic treatment sessions and rebleeding. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups; the independent-samples t test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between the two groups; the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for comparison bertween multiple groups, and the Wilcoxon test was used for further comparison between two groups. The Cox regression model was used to investigate the influencing factors for rebleeding, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves, while the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. ResultsOf all patients, 286 (16.7%) experienced rebleeding after endoscopic therapy, and 1 431 (83.3%) did not experience bleeding. There were significant differences between the two groups in history of smoking and drinking, etiology of liver cirrhosis, hemoglobin (Hb), prothrombin time (PT), prothrombin activity (PTA), international normalized ratio (INR), albumin (Alb), fasting blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen, Child-Pugh class, aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index (APRI) score, albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) score, use of non-selective beta-blocker (NSBB) before surgery, treatment modality, type of varices, and maximal varicose vein diameter (all P<0.05). The univariate Cox regression analysis showed that in the patients with liver cirrhosis who received secondary prevention of GOV, rebleeding was associated with history of smoking and drinking, etiology of liver cirrhosis, use of NSBB before surgery, treatment modality, maximal varicose vein diameter, Hb, platelet count, PT, PTA, INR, Alb, total bilirubin (TBil), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase, blood glucose, Child-Pugh class, and ALBI score (all P<0.05). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that Hb (hazard ratio [HR]=0.989, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.983 — 0.994, P<0.001), TBil (HR=1.020, 95%CI: 1.006 — 1.034, P=0.005), Alb (HR=0.868, 95%CI: 0.758 — 0.994, P=0.041), treatment modality (sclerosing agent: HR=2.158, 95%CI: 1.342 — 3.470, P=0.002; tissue adhesive: HR=2.709, 95%CI: 1.343 — 5.462, P=0.005; ligation+sclerosing agent: HR=3.181, 95%CI: 1.522 — 6.645, P=0.002; sclerosing agent+tissue adhesive: HR=1.851, 95%CI: 1.100 — 3.113, P=0.020), ALP (HR=1.003, 95%CI: 1.001 — 1.004, P=0.002), and maximal varicose vein diameter (HR=1.346, 95%CI: 1.119 — 1.618, P=0.002) were independent influencing factors for rebleeding after endoscopic therapy. Comparison of rebleeding rate after different numbers of sequential treatment sessions showed that the patients treated for three sessions had a significantly lower rebleeding rate than those treated for one or two sessions (χ2=8.643 and 5.277, P=0.003 and 0.022). The survival analysis showed that with the increase in the number of treatment sessions, there was a significantly longer interval between rebleeding (P=0.006) and a significantly lower mortality rate (P<0.001). ConclusionThe levels of TBil, ALP, Hb, and Alb on admission, endoscopic treatment modality, and maximal varicose vein diameter were the main predictive factors for rebleeding after endoscopic therapy for GOV in liver cirrhosis, and such predictive factors should be closely monitored in clinical practice. Regular endoscopic therapy can reduce the rebleeding and mortality rates of patients with liver cirrhosis and GOV and prolonmg the interval between rebleeding.

ObjectiveTo explore whether miR-375 regulates the malignant characteristics of osteosarcoma (OS) by influencing the expression of MMP13. MethodsPlasmid DNAs and miRNAs were transfected into OS cells and HEK293 cells using Lipofectamine 3000 reagent. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was performed to measure the expression of miR-375 and MMP13 in OS patients and OS cells. Western blot was performed to analyze the MMP13 protein in the patients with OS and OS cells. The targeting relationship between miR-375 and MMP13 was analyzed by luciferase assay. Migration and invasion were analysed by heal wound and transwell assays, respectively. ResultsmiR-375 expression in OS tissues was lower than that in normal tissues. The expression of MMP13 was upregulated in OS tissues. MMP13 expression was negatively correlated withmiR-375 expression in patients with OS. Migration and invasion were significantly inhibited in OS cells with the miR-375 mimic compared with OS cells with the miRNA control. MMP13 partially reversed the inhibition of migration and invasion induced by miR-375 in the OS cells. ConclusionmiR-375 attenuates migration and invasion by downregulating the expression of MMP13 in OS cells.

Statistical analysis of 21 quality monitoring indicators in terms of blood donation service (10 indicators), blood component preparation (7 indicators ), and blood supply (4 indicators) from each blood bank from January to December 2022 were conducted using SPSS25.0 software The differences in quality monitoring indicators of blood banks of different scales were analyzed. 【Results】 The average values of quality monitoring indicators for blood donation service process of 17 blood banks were as follows: 44.66% (2 233/5 000) of regular donors proportion, 0.22% (11/50) of adverse reactions incidence, 0.46% (23/5 000) of non-standard whole blood collection rate, 0.052% (13/25 000) of missed HBsAg screening rate, 99.42% (4 971/5 000) of first, puncture successful rate, 86.49% (173/200) of double platelet collection rate, 66.50% (133/200) of 400 mL whole blood collection rate, 99.25% (397/400) of donor satisfaction rate, 82.68% (2 067/2 500) of use rate of whole blood collection bags with bypass system with sample tube, and 1 case of occupational exposure in blood collection.There was a strong positive correlation between the proportion of regular blood donors and the collection rate of 400 mL whole blood (P<0.05). The platelet collection rate, incidence of adverse reactions to blood donation, and non-standard whole blood collection rate in large blood banks were significantly lower than those in medium and small blood banks (P<0.05). The average quality monitoring indicators for blood component preparation process of 17 blood banks were as follows: the leakage rate of blood component preparation bags was 0.03% (3/10 000), the discarding rate of lipemic blood was 3.05% (61/2 000), the discarding rate of hemolysis blood was 0.13%(13/10 000). 0.06 case had labeling errors, 8 bags had blood catheter leaks, 2.76 bags had blood puncture/connection leaks, and 0.59 cases had non-conforming consumables. The discarding rate of hemolysis blood of large blood banks was significantly lower than that of medium and small blood banks (P<0.05), and the discarding rate of lipemic blood of large and medium blood banks was significantly lower than that of small blood banks (P<0.05). The average values of quality monitoring indicators for blood supply process of 17 blood banks were as follows: the discarding rate of expired blood was 0.023% (23/100 000), the leakage rate during storage and distribution was of 0.009%(9/100 000), the discarding rate of returned blood was 0.106% (53/50 000), the service satisfaction of hospitals was 99.16% (2 479/2 500). The leakage rate of blood components during storage and distribution was statistically different with that of blood component preparation bags between different blood banks (P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the proportion of regular blood donors, incidence of adverse reactions, non-standard whole blood collection rate, 400 mL whole blood collection rate, double platelet collection rate, the blood bag leakage rate during preparation process, the blood components leakage rate during storage and distribution as well as the discarding rate of lipemic blood, hemolysis blood, expired blood and returned blood among large, medium and small blood banks (all P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The establishment of a quality monitoring indicator system for blood donation services, blood component preparation and blood supply processes in Shandong has good applicability, feasibility and effectiveness. It can objectively evaluate the quality management level, facilitate the continuous improvement of the quality management system, promote the homogenization of blood management in the province and lay the foundation for future comprehensive evaluation of blood banks.
