BACKGROUND:Previous studies have found that neohesperidin can delay bone loss in ovariectomized mice and has the potential to treat osteoporosis,but its specific mechanism of action remains to be explored. OBJECTIVE:To explore the key targets and possible mechanisms of neohesperidin in the treatment of osteoporosis based on bioinformatics and cell experiments in vitro. METHODS:The gene expression dataset related to osteoporosis was obtained from GEO database,and the differentially expressed genes were screened and analyzed in R language.The osteoporosis-related targets were screened from GeneCards and DisGeNET databases,and the neohesperidin-related targets were screened from ChEMBL and PubChem databases,and the common targets were obtained by intersection of the three.The String database was used to construct the PPI network of intersection genes,and the key targets were screened.The DAVID database was used for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.The AutoDock software was used to verify the molecular docking between the neohesperidin and the target protein.The effect of neohesperidin on osteogenic differentiation of C57 mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was detected.Complete medium was used as blank control group;osteogenic induction medium was used as the control group;and osteogenic induction medium containing different concentrations of neohesperidin(25,50 μmol/L)was used as experimental group.The expression of alkaline phosphatase,the degree of mineralization,the expression of osteogenic-related genes and target genes during osteogenic differentiation of cells were measured at corresponding time points. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)9 253 differentially expressed genes,2 161 osteoporosis-related targets,and 326 neohesperidin-related targets were screened.There were 53 common targets among the three.All 53 genes were up-regulated in osteoporosis samples.The PPI network screened the target gene PRKACA of research significance.GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that neohesperidin's treatment of osteoporosis through PRKACA target mainly depended on biological processes such as protein phosphorylation and protein autophosphorylation,acting on endocrine resistance,proteoglycan in cancer,and estrogen signaling pathway to play a therapeutic role.Molecular docking results showed that neohesperidin had a certain binding ability to the protein corresponding to the target PRKACA.(2)The results of alkaline phosphatase staining showed that neohesperidin could promote the expression of alkaline phosphatase in the early stage of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.Alizarin red staining showed that neohesperidin could promote the mineralization of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.RT-qPCR results showed that neohesperidin could increase the mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase,PRKACA,and osteocalcin.(3)These results indicate that neohesperidin may promote osteogenic differentiation through PRKACA target on the estrogen signaling pathway to prevent and treat osteoporosis.

Objective To compare the lipid-lowering efficacy and safety of fixed-dose combination and free combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe in hypercholesterolemia patients who fail to achieve low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)goal with statin monotherapy.Methods A total of 45 hypercholesterolemia patients who switched from statin monotherapy to fixed-dose combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe after failing to achieve target LDL-C goal admitted at cardiological departments of First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University,Nanhai Fourth People's Hospital,Foshan First People's Hospital,and Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital between March and June 2024 were enrolled and served as the study group.Another 120 hyper-cholesterolemia patients who treated with free combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe were se-lected from Xiamen Regional Health Medical Big Data Platform with propensity score matching and served as control group.The LDL-C level,LDL-C reduction,and changes in TC,HDL-C and TG levels in 4-6 weeks after the medication switch,as well as the safety indicators(AST,ALT,CK,Cre and eGFR)were compared between the two groups.Results In 4-6 weeks after the medication switch,the patients in the study group exhibited a significant decrease in LDL-C level(1.70±0.44 mmol/L vs 2.12±0.87 mmol/L,P＜0.01),obvious LDL-C reduction[(43.17±16.11)％vs(29.14±29.13)％,P＜0.01]when compared to those of the control group.The LDL-C goal attainment rate was significantly higher in the study group than the control group(71.11％vs 45.00％,P=0.003).In addition,there were no statistical differences in the levels of HDL-C and TG and the reductions of HDL-C and TG between the two groups in 4-6 weeks after treatment(P＞0.05).The study group obtained notably lower TC level and TC reduction than the control group in the time(P＜/0.05,P＜0.01).After treatment,no statistical differences were observed between the two groups in terms of AST,ALT,CK,Cre and eGFR(P＞0.05).Conclusion Com-pared to free combination of rosuvastatin and ezetimibe,fixed-dose combination can further reduce LDL-C level in hypercholesterolemia patients who have not achieved LDL-C goal with statin monotherapy,with higher LDL-C goal attainment rate and good safety.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Yigongsan is derived from Xiaoer Yaozheng Zhijue written by QIAN Yi in the Northern Song dynasty， which is the No. 3 formula in the Catalogue of Ancient Famous Classical Formulas（The Second Batch of Pediatrics） released by the National Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine（TCM） in September 2022， and it can be developed as a class 3.1 new TCM drug. By referring to ancient medical books and modern literature， this study conducted herbal textual research on Yigongsan from five aspects， including historical evolution， origin and processing， dosage conversion， usage and preparation methods， and functional application， then formed the key information table of this formula， in order to provide reference for the development of reference samples and preparations of Yigongsan. Based on the results of the study， it is recommended that Panax ginseng should be removed the basal part of stem（rhizoma）， Poria cocos should be removed the peel， Citrus reticulata should be cut into shreds and Glycyrrhiza uralensis should be used. According to 4.13 g/Qian（钱）， 1 g/slice for ginger， 3 g for each jujube and 300 mL/Zhan（盏）， the doses of Ginseng Radix， Poria， Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium， Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens， Jujubae Fructus were 1.652， 1.652， 1.652， 1.652， 1.652， 5， 6 g， and the total amount was 19.26 g. The decocting method was to crush the medicinal materials into fine powder with 50-80 mesh， add 300 mL of water and decoct to 210 mL for each dose， then remove the dregs and take it warmly. This formula was recorded in ancient books as the main treatment for the cold-deficiency of spleen and stomach， and Qi stagnation in children with vomiting and diarrhea and lack of appetite. It has been flexibly applied by later generations of physicians， and is often used to treat anorexia， inflammation of the digestive tract， diarrhea and other diseases in children.

Objective To explore the carrier rate of thalassemia in Laibin city,Guangxi Province,and provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and control of thalassemia.Methods From January 2020 to December 2021,88 152 patients were screened for thalassemia in the outpatient department of the Women's and Children's Hospital of 4 counties,1 city and 1 district in Laibin by blood cell detection and hemoglobin electrophoresis.The common and rare genes in initially screened positive individuals were detected by gap polymerase chain reaction(Gap-PCR)and reverse dot blot(RBD),and the results were conducted by statistical analysis.Results ① There were 22 553 positive cases in the preliminary screening and 8 327 positive cases received the diagnosis of thalassemia gene.A total of 4 944 thalassemia carriers of thalassemia genes were detected,deducing that the total thalassemia carrier rate in the population of childbearing age in this region was 15.19%,including 3 200 cases of α-thalassemia carriers(64.73%),1 424 cases of β-thalassemia carriers(28.80%),and 320 cases of were carriers α-thalassemia combined with β-thalassemia(6.47%).② There were 3 168 cases of common thalassemia(99.00%)and 32 cases of rare thalassemia(1.00%)among α-thalassemia gene carriers.A total of 13 mutant genes and 34 genotypes were detected,and genotype SEA/αα was the comes first.③ Among the β-thalassemia gene carriers,there were 1 411 cases of(99.09%)common thalassemia and 13 cases(0.91%)of rare thalassemia.A total of 19 mutant genes and 25 genotypes were detected,with CD41-42(-CTTT)being the most common.④ A total of 53 different genotypes were detected in the carriers of α-thalassemia combined with β-thalassemia,and the top genotype was--SEA/αα βCD41-42M/βN.⑤ The carrier rates of Yao and Han nationality were comparable,and the differences were not significant(χ2=0.300,P=0.584).The differences in carrying rates between Zhuang and Yao(χ2=23.66,P＜0.001),and between Zhuang and Han(χ2=116.98,P＜0.001)were significant.⑥ The carrier rate in Xiangzhou County was the highest(20.04%),while the carrier rate in Heshan City was the lowest(12.38%).⑦ The carrier rate of females was higher than that of males,and the difference was significant(χ2=182.03,P＜0.001).Conclusion The variants genotypes of thalassemia in Laibin were complex.This study was the first to investigate the carrier rate and gene mutation spectrum of thalassemia in Laibin Area,which provides valuable baseline data for genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis.

Objective:To describe demographic,clinical and physiological characteristics,treatment between first-episode major depressive disorder(MDD)and relapse MDD,and to explore characteristics of relapse MDD.Methods:Totally 858 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for depression of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5),were included by using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview(MINI),Clinician-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity,and Hamilton Depression Scale etc.Among them,529(58.6％)were first-episode depression and 329(36.0％)were relapsed.The differences of demographic characteristics,clinical and physiological characteristics,treatment were compared byx2test and Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test.Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore the characteristics of MDD recur-rence.Results:Compared to first-episode MDD,relapse MDD had more comorbidity(OR=2.11,95％CI:1.00-4.44),more days out of role(OR=1.26,95％CI:1.01-1.56),more history of using psychiatric drug more than one month(OR=1.41,95％CI:1.02-1.97)and electroconvulsive therapy(OR=3.23,95％CI:1.42-7.36),and higher waist-hip ratio(OR=33.88,95％CI:2.88-399.32).Conclusion:Relapse MDD has positive as-sociation with comorbidity of mental disorders,out of role,and higher waist-hip ratio.

OBJECTIVE To introduce a case of interstitial pneumonia induced by vedolizumab （VDZ）， summarize and analyze the characteristics of the occurrence of VDZ-associated lung toxicity， and provide a reference for the clinically safe use of drugs. METHODS From the perspective of clinical pharmacists， the diagnosis and treatment of a case of VDZ-induced interstitial pneumonia were retrospectively analyzed， and the association of adverse drug reactions （ADR） was analyzed. Retrieving from Chinese and English databases such as CNKI， VIP， PubMed and Web of Science， case reports of VDZ-associated lung toxicity were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS The patient developed interstitial pneumonia during the use of VDZ and empirical anti- infective therapy with antibiotics was ineffective. After withdrawal of VDZ and treatment with methylprednisolone， symptoms and imaging examinations improved， but interstitial pneumonia still existed. According to Naranjo’s ADR evaluation scale and based on China Adverse Drug Reaction Reporting and Monitoring Manual， the association between VDZ and interstitial pneumonia was “very likely”. Results of the literature analysis showed that among 29 involved patients （including the patient reported in this article）， there were 19 males and 10 females， with an average age of （49.24±17.06） years. Lung toxicity mainly included VDZ- associated pneumonia， eosinophilic pneumonia， pulmonary granulomas or necrobiotic nodules， interstitial lung injury， etc.， which mostly occurred ≤24 weeks after medication （58.62%）. The main clinical manifestations included cough， dyspnea and fever. The vast majority of patients improved or recovered after drug withdrawal and/or glucocorticoid treatment， but one patient died of respiratory failure. CONCLUSIONS Lung toxicity is a rare ADR of VDZ with insidious onset and nonspecific symptoms. Once patients experience symptoms such as cough and dyspnea， early diagnosis，timely drug withdrawal，and symptomatic treatment measures such as glucocorticoid should be taken to ensure medication safety.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of postoperative complications in Chinese patients with gastric or colorectal cancer, and to evaluate the risk factors for postoperative complications.Methods:This was a national, multicenter, prospective, registry-based, cohort study of data obtained from the database of the Prevalence of Abdominal Complications After Gastro- enterological Surgery (PACAGE) study sponsored by the China Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgical Union. The PACAGE database prospectively collected general demographic characteristics, protocols for perioperative treatment, and variables associated with postoperative complications in patients treated for gastric or colorectal cancer in 20 medical centers from December 2018 to December 2020. The patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of postoperative complications. Postoperative complications were categorized and graded in accordance with the expert consensus on postoperative complications in gastrointestinal oncology surgery and Clavien-Dindo grading criteria. The incidence of postoperative complications of different grades are presented as bar charts. Independent risk factors for occurrence of postoperative complications were identified by multifactorial unconditional logistic regression.Results:The study cohort comprised 3926 patients with gastric or colorectal cancer, 657 (16.7%) of whom had a total of 876 postoperative complications. Serious complications (Grade III and above) occurred in 4.0% of patients (156/3926). The rate of Grade V complications was 0.2% (7/3926). The cohort included 2271 patients with gastric cancer with a postoperative complication rate of 18.1% (412/2271) and serious complication rate of 4.7% (106/2271); and 1655 with colorectal cancer, with a postoperative complication rate of 14.8% (245/1655) and serious complication rate of 3.0% (50/1655). The incidences of anastomotic leakage in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer were 3.3% (74/2271) and 3.4% (56/1655), respectively. Abdominal infection was the most frequently occurring complication, accounting for 28.7% (164/572) and 39.5% (120/304) of postoperative complications in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer, respectively. The most frequently occurring grade of postoperative complication was Grade II, accounting for 65.4% (374/572) and 56.6% (172/304) of complications in patients with gastric and colorectal cancers, respectively. Multifactorial analysis identified (1) the following independent risk factors for postoperative complications in patients in the gastric cancer group: preoperative comorbidities (OR=2.54, 95%CI: 1.51-4.28, P<0.001), neoadjuvant therapy (OR=1.42, 95%CI:1.06-1.89, P=0.020), high American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores (ASA score 2 points:OR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.23-2.07, P<0.001, ASA score ≥3 points:OR=0.43, 95% CI: 0.25-0.73, P=0.002), operative time >180 minutes (OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.42-2.31, P<0.001), intraoperative bleeding >50 mL (OR=1.29,95%CI: 1.01-1.63, P=0.038), and distal gastrectomy compared with total gastrectomy (OR=0.65,95%CI: 0.51-0.83, P<0.001); and (2) the following independent risk factors for postoperative complications in patients in the colorectal cancer group: female (OR=0.60, 95%CI: 0.44-0.80, P<0.001), preoperative comorbidities (OR=2.73, 95%CI: 1.25-5.99, P=0.030), neoadjuvant therapy (OR=1.83, 95%CI:1.23-2.72, P=0.008), laparoscopic surgery (OR=0.47, 95%CI: 0.30-0.72, P=0.022), and abdominoperineal resection compared with low anterior resection (OR=2.74, 95%CI: 1.71-4.41, P<0.001). Conclusion:Postoperative complications associated with various types of infection were the most frequent complications in patients with gastric or colorectal cancer. Although the risk factors for postoperative complications differed between patients with gastric cancer and those with colorectal cancer, the presence of preoperative comorbidities, administration of neoadjuvant therapy, and extent of surgical resection, were the commonest factors associated with postoperative complications in patients of both categories.
