ObjectiveThis paper aims to study the potential active compound components and action mechanism of Shenqi Dihuangtang in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease （DKD） through network pharmacology and in vivo experimental verification. MethodsUltra-high-performance liquid chromatography-Q-exactive orbitrap mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS） technology was used to clarify the main active chemical components of Shenqi Dihuangtang， and it was combined with network pharmacology methods such as gene ontology （GO） functional annotations and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genome （KEGG） to predict the potential action mechanism of Shenqi Dihuangtang in treating DKD. Subsequently， the DKD model of db/db male mice was established， and the mice were randomly divided into model group， low-dose Shenqi Dihuangtang group （6.10 g·kg^-1）， medium-dose Shenqi Dihuangtang group （12.19 g·kg^-1）， high-dose Shenqi Dihuangtang group （24.38 g·kg^-1）， and daplizin group （1.25 mg·kg^-1）. During the same period， C57BL/6J male mice were selected into normal group and received drug intervention for 8 weeks， respectively. During this period， the body weight and fasting blood glucose （FBG） of the mice were dynamically monitored， and oral glucose tolerance test （OGTT） and insulin tolerance test （ITT） were performed at the end of dosing. The levels of serum creatinine （SCr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， uric acid （UA）， albumin （ALB）， and total protein （TP） were measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer， and 24-hour urine protein was measured by a urine protein quantitative kit. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE）， periodic-acid Schiff （PAS）， and Masson staining were employed to observe the renal histopathology. The expression of nephrotic protein Nephrin was observed by immunohistochemistry. Western blot was used to detect the expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT）-related proteins such as TGF-β₁， Smad2/3， α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA）， neural-cadherin （N-Cadherin）， and snail protein. ResultsUPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS identified 384 active compounds in the aqueous extract of Shenqi Dihuangtang. According to oral bioavailability≥30% and the five drug-like principles， 44 key active ingredients were screened out， and 169 intersection targets highly correlated with DKD were matched. Among them， there was a significant interaction relationship between tumor necrosis factor（TNF）， interleukin（IL）-6， protein kinase B（Akt）1， Caspase-3， Jun proto-oncogene （JUN）， hypoxia inducible factor-1α（HIF-1α）， B cell lymphoma-2（Bcl-2）， matrix metallopeptidase-9（MMP-9）， IL-1β， and TGF-β₁. GO functional annotations were significantly enriched in cellular components such as membrane rafts， membrane microdomains， and collagen-containing extracellular matrix， molecular functions such as DNA-binding transcription factor binding， R-Smad binding， and Smad protein binding， as well as biological processes such as reactions to lipopolysaccharides（LPS）， reactions to bacteria-derived molecules， and wound healing. The KEGG pathway was significantly enriched in lipids and atherosclerosis， TGF-β signaling pathway， phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase （PI3K）/Akt signaling pathway， etc. In vivo experimental results showed that the high-dose Shenqi Dihuangtang group could significantly reduce FBG levels in db/db mice （P<0.01）， improve OGTT （P<0.01） and ITT （P<0.01） levels， reduce SCr （P<0.01）， BUN （P<0.01）， UA （P<0.01） and 24-hour BUN （P<0.01）， and increase ALB （P<0.01） and TP （P<0.01） levels. Pathological staining confirmed that the high-dose Shenqi Dihuangtang group could significantly reduce the glomerular mesangial matrix area and collagen deposition （P<0.01） and upregulate the positive expression rate of Nephrin （P<0.01）. Western blot results showed that the high-dose Shenqi Dihuangtang group significantly downregulated the expression of TGF-β₁ （P<0.01） and Smad2/3 （P<0.01） signal molecules and inhibited the protein levels of α-SMA （P<0.01）， N-Cadherin （P<0.01）， and Snail （P<0.01）. ConclusionShenqi Dihuangtang can inhibit the TGF-β₁/Smad signaling axis and block the renal EMT process， thereby improving DKD renal fibrosis damage. Further analysis of its key active components and clinical transformation pathways is needed in the future.

Objective: To explore the correlation between small intestinal bacterial overgrowth(SIBO) and cognitive impairment in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis(PD). Methods: 60 PD patients and 46 non-dialysis patients with end-stage renal disease(ESRD) were included in this study. SIBO was detected by lactulose hydrogen methane breath test(LHMBT). The cognitive function levels of the subjects were evaluated using the Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA) and mini-mental state examination(MMSE). The emotional states of the patients were assessed by self-rating anxiety scale(SAS) and self-rating depression scale(SDS). The gastrointestinal symptoms were evaluated using gastrointestinal symptom rating scale(GSRS). According to the results of LHMBT, the PD patients were further divided into two subgroups: SIBO-positive and SIBO-negative. The general conditions, laboratory data, and scores of each scale were compared between the two groups. Furthermore, according to the MoCA scores, the PD patients were divided into two groups: those with normal cognitive function and those with cognitive dysfunction. The positive rates of SIBO between the two groups were compared. Binary Logistic stepwise regression was used to explore whether SIBO was an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in PD patients. At the same time, other independent influencing factors for cognitive impairment in PD patients were analyzed. Results: The positive rate of SIBO in PD patients was 40.00%. Among them, the positive rate of SIBO in the group with normal cognitive function during peritoneal dialysis was 27.27%, and the positive rate of SIBO in the group with cognitive dysfunction during peritoneal dialysis was 55.56%. There was a statistically significant difference in the positive rate of SIBO between the two groups(P=0.026). Further analysis by multivariate Logistic stepwise regression showed that in addition to age(OR=1.118, 95%CI 1.007-1.242, P=0.037), educational attainment(OR=0.655,95%CI 0.442-0.972,P=0.036), and hemoglobin(OR=0.946,95% CI 0.895-0.998,P=0.044), SIBO(OR=7.613,95% CI 1.160-49.979,P=0.034)was also an independent risk factor for cognitive impairment in PD patients. Conclusion The incidence of SIBO in PD patients is relatively high and is associated with multiple factors, among which SIBO may be closely related to cognitive dysfunction in PD patients.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of thyroid volume in children aged 8 - 10 in Yunnan Province, and provide scientific basis for improving iodine deficiency disorders monitoring.Methods:From March to July 2020, in 129 counties (cities, districts) under the jurisdiction of Yunnan Province, each county (city, district) was divided into 5 sampling areas based on east, west, south, north, and middle. One township was selected from each area, and 40 non-boarding children aged 8 - 10 from one primary school were selected from each township (age balanced, half male and half female) as survey subjects. One random urine sample and household edible salt samples were collected for urine iodine and salt iodine testing, and physical examination and thyroid volume measurement were conducted for children. The influencing factors of thyroid volume were analyzed using Pearson correlation.Results:A total of 24 934 urine samples were collected from children, with a median urine iodine of 233.2 μg/L. A total of 24 933 household edible salt samples were collected from children, the median salt iodine was 24.17 mg/kg, and the qualified rate of iodized salt was 96.63% (24 003/24 839); A total of 24 937 children were examined of their thyroid gland, with a median thyroid volume of 2.62 ml and a goiter rate of 1.12% (280/24 937). Among them, there were 12 410 boys and 12 527 girls, with thyroid volumes of 2.61 and 2.64 ml, respectively. The thyroid volume of boys was positively correlated with age, height, weight, body mass index, body surface area, and salt iodine ( r = 0.15, 0.21, 0.26, 0.18, 0.25, 0.03, P < 0.001). The thyroid volume of girls was positively correlated with age, height, weight, body mass index, and body surface area ( r = 0.17, 0.26, 0.28, 0.17, 0.27, P < 0.001). Conclusion:Children aged 8 - 10 in Yunnan Province are at an iodine excess level; the age, weight, height, body mass index, and body surface area are influencing factors of thyroid volume.

Objective This study aims to assess the effect of Problem-Based Learning(PBL)and Case-Based Learning(CBL)based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act(PDCA)cycle on the quality control training for clinical residents in medical record writing on the first page.Methods A total of 293 clinical residents who participated in first page of medical record writing train-ing in 2021 in a hospital were selected as control group,and 243 clinical residents who participated in first page of medical record writing training in 2022 were selected as observation group.The control group were trained only with the PBL+CBL teaching method,while the observation group with the PDCA cycle in combination with PBL+CBL teaching methods.Upon completion of the training,the two groups were compared in terms of scores on basic theoretical examinations.Results The observation group showed a significantly higher average theoretical score compared to the control group(84.41±12.27 vs.74.32±14.39,P＜0.05).Conclusion PBL and CBL teaching methods based on PDCA cycle can enhance the effect of quality control training for clinical residents in medical record writing on the first page,ultimately improving the quality of medical record writing on the first page and ensuring that objectivity,accuracy,and authenticity of information on the first page.

Objective:To evaluate the role of hippocampal β4-Subunit-Containing Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors (Chrnb4) in postoperative delirium in aged mice.Methods:Forty-eight SPF male C57BL/6J mice, aged 18 months, weighing 29-35 g, were assigned into 6 groups using a random number table method: tibial fracture group (TF group, n=6), sham operation group (Sham group, n=6), tibial fracture + adipenine group (TA group, n=9), tibial fracture + control vehicle group (TV group, n=9), sham operation + adipenine group (SA group, n=9), and sham operation + control vehicle group (SV group, n=9). The postoperative delirium model was prepared by tibial fracture under sevoflurane anesthesia. Tibial fracture was simulated by implanting a steel pin into the tibia and then clamping it, while sham group only received a longitudinal incision and suture after anesthesia. A microinjection cannula was implanted into the mouse skull at 5 days before developing the model in TA group, TV group, SA group and SV group. Three mice from each group were randomly selected for microelectrode implantation in the hippocampal CA1 area. Starting from 30 min after surgery, adipenine (62.5 nmol/μl) 2 μl was infused into the cerebral ventricle for 7 consecutive days in TA and SA groups, and vehicle (2 μl) was administered instead at a 24-h interval for 7 consecutive days in TV and SV groups. The expression of Chrnb4 mRNA in the hippocampal tissues was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction at 24 h after surgery. On the 7th and 8th days after surgery, the open-field test and O-maze experiment were conducted to assess the impulsive-like behavior in TA, TV, SA and SV groups. After the behavioral test, the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and vesicular glutamate transporter 1 (Vglut1) in the hippocampal CA1 region was detected by immunofluorescence staining. The local field potentials in the hippocampal CA1 region were recorded during the open field test. Results:The expression of Chrnb4 mRNA in the hippocampal tissues was significantly up-regulated in TF group compared to Sham group ( P<0.05). Compared with TV group, the percentage of central path distance in the open field test and percentage of time spent in the open arms of the O-maze were significantly decreased, the power of β-waves in the CA1 field potentials was decreased, the expression of GFAP and Vglut1 in the hippocampal CA1 region was down-regulated, and the co-staining area of GFAP + and Vglut1 + was decreased in TA group and SV group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in each parameter between SA group and SV group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Hippocampal Chrnb4 may be involved in the mechanism of postoperative delirium in aged mice, and this process may be related to inhibition of neuron excitotoxicity.

Objective Based on the problems existing in the DRG grouping of non-enrolled medical records in a tertiary hospital,analyze the impact of disease nature on surgical coding,propose solutions,and continuously improve the quality of med-ical record data.Methods From January to June 2022,the medical records reported to the DRG group in the medical records room were found by the data center platform of the DRG inpatient medical service detection and analysis system,and the number of cases in which the medical records were not included in the DRG group due to the disease nature of the surgical operation name was found,and the defects were cited,classified,counted and analyzed.And the statistical analysis of the cost before and after the revision of the surgical code,and discuss the solution.Results After statistical analysis,it was found that the causes of 377 non enrolled medical records were related to the main diagnosis and surgical procedures,accounting for 85.46%.The main diag-nosis and surgical procedures were 55 cases of mismatched surgical procedure codes due to the nature of the disease.Conclusion The issue of not being included in the medical record is essentially a matter of the nature of the disease and surgical procedures in the main diagnosis.Medical record information managers should strengthen the management and training methods of medical record writing,improve their ability to diagnose and write medical records,ensure the accuracy of medical record homepage data and DRG grouping data,and improve enrollment rates.

Objective:To investigate the iodine nutritional status of adults and pregnant women in Jianshui County and Zhenxiong County, Yunnan Province.Methods:From May to August 2021, one urban area and one rural area in Jianshui County and Zhenxiong County, Yunnan Province were selected as investigation sites. At least 100 adults (half male and half female) and 100 pregnant women were selected as survey subjects in each investigation site. Random urine samples were collected from all survey subjects once to detect urine iodine, creatinine and sodium contents. Venous blood samples of all pregnant women were collected to detect the serum iodine content, and the 95% medical reference range of serum iodine was established using the percentile method.Results:The medians urinary iodine, creatinine and sodium of adults in Jianshui County and Zhenxiong County were 184.7 μg/L ( n = 432), 12 355.0 μmol/L ( n = 431) and 156.5 mmol/L ( n = 420), respectively. The median urinary iodine of adults in Jianshui County was higher than that in Zhenxiong County (197.3 vs 170.2 μg/L), the difference was statistically significant ( Z = - 2.90, P = 0.003). The median serum iodine of pregnant women in Jianshui County and Zhenxiong County was 92.1 μg/L ( n = 412), with a 95% medical reference value ranged from 45.3 to 183.5 μg/L; the medians urinary iodine, creatinine and sodium of pregnant women were 138.6 μg/L ( n = 413), 12 173.0 μmol/L ( n = 408) and 152.2 mmol/L ( n = 409), respectively. The urinary iodine (154.1 vs 115.8 μg/L), urinary creatinine (13 216.0 vs 11 376.0 μmol/L) and urinary sodium (161.8 vs 141.8 mmol/L) of pregnant women in Jianshui County were higher than those in Zhenxiong County, with statistical differences ( Z = - 5.12, - 2.29, - 4.30, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Adults in Jianshui County and Zhenxiong County are at an appropriate level of iodine, but pregnant women in Zhenxiong County are at an iodine deficiency level.

Objective:To understand the contents of edible salt iodine and urinary iodine of children and pregnant women in Yunnan Province, and to evaluate the iodine nutrition status, so as to provide a basis for scientific prevention and treatment of iodine deficiency disorders (IDD).Methods:From November to December 2020, one county (city) was selected from each prefecture (city), two townships (towns and streets) were selected from each county (city) and two villages (neighborhood committees) were selected from each township (town and street) from each of the 16 prefectures (cities) in Yunnan Province as the investigation sites. A total of 20 non-boarding children (male and female balanced) aged 8 - 10 years old were selected from each primary school in each village (neighborhood committee) to collect salt and urine samples. A total of 80 children were investigated in each county (city). A total of 20 pregnant women were selected from each township (town and street) to collect salt and urine samples. A total of 40 pregnant women were investigated in each county (city). All salt samples and urine samples were tested for iodine contents.Results:A total of 2 009 salt samples and 2 041 urine samples (1 375 for children, 666 for pregnant women) were collected from children aged 8 - 10 years old and pregnant women in 16 counties (cities) of Yunnan Province. Among them, the median salt iodine was 26.0 mg/kg, the coverage rate of iodized salt was 100.0% (2 009/2 009), the qualified rate of iodized salt was 98.7% (1 982/2 009), and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt was 98.7% (1 982/2 009). The difference of salt iodine content in key populations in different counties (cities) was statistically significant ( H = 258.98, P < 0.01). The median urinary iodine of children aged 8 - 10 years old was 188.5 μg/L. There was statistically significant difference in urinary iodine content among children of different ages ( H = 29.45, P < 0.01), but there was no statistically significant difference in urinary iodine content among children of different genders ( H = 1.43, P > 0.05). In addition, the median urinary iodine of pregnant women was 141.9 μg/L, 52.1% (347/666) was < 150 μg/L. There was statistically significant difference in urinary iodine content of pregnant women in different counties (cities, H = 88.32, P < 0.01). Conclusions:The qualified rate of iodized salt, the coverage rate of iodized salt and the consumption rate of qualified iodized salt in key populations of Yunnan Province are more than 90%, and the iodized salt supply is good. Iodine nutrition of children aged 8 - 10 years old is at an appropriate level (100 - 199 μg/L); iodine nutrition of pregnant women is in an state of iodine deficiency ( < 150 μg/L). It is suggested to strengthen IDD monitoring and health education among key populations, improve residents' awareness of disease prevention, and make scientific iodine supplementation.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of certolizumab pegol (CZP) in the treatment of Chinese women of childbearing age with inflammatory joint diseases and the effect of intrauterine exposure on infant vaccination and risk of infection.Methods:This study is a retrospective observation study, including female patients of childbearing age who were treated with CZP in the outpatient clinic from November 2019 to October 2020. The patients were followed up for 24 weeks, and the related data was collected. We adopted disease activity score-28 for rheumatoid arthritis with CRP (DAS28-CRP), clinical disease activity index (CDAI) and simplified disease activity index (SDAI) to evaluate disease activity. Bath ankylosing spon-dylitis disease activity index (BASDAI) and ankylosing spondylitis disease activity score (ASDAS-ESR) were used to assess the disease activity of patients with ankylosing spondylitis or spondyloarthritis (AS/SpA). Low disease activity (LDA), the dosage of glucocorticoid (GC) and the qualified rates of ACR20 and ASAS20 were calculated to validate the efficacy of CZP. The data of infants vaccination and infection was recorded to estimate the effect of intrauterine exposure on infants. Correlation analysis were performed using paired t test or Mann Whitney test. All statistical tests were bilateral, with a significance of P<0.05. Results:Twenty women entered the study and fifteen completed, including eight patients with RA, six patients with AS and 1 patient with SpA. The average age was (30±5) years and the median symptom duration was 5.0 (3.0, 6.5) years. When these RA patients were enrolled into the study, DAS28-CRP, CDAI and SDAI were (3.4±1.2), 15.5(9.5, 21.0) and (18±12) respectively; and after the use of CZP, the DAS28-CRP, CDAI and SDAI changed to (2.5±0.9)( t=2.48, P=0.042), 4.5(3.5, 10.8) ( U=12.50, P=0.040) and (9±6) (t=2.76, P=0.028). At the first follow-up, the ACR20 rate was 50%. and at the end of the study, the LDA rate was 75%(6/8), three(37.5%) women reduced the dosage of GC. Among the AS/SpA patients, BASDAI was 19.0(14.5, 26.0) and ASDAS-ESR was (2.4±1.0) at first, while after treatment, BASDAI turned into 9.0(1.0, 10.5) ( U=11.50, P=0.100) and ASDAS-ESR turned into (1.4±0.5) ( t=3.44, P=0.014). The ASAS20 rate at the first follow-up was 71.4%(5/7), and 85.7%(6/7) at the end of the study. Four patients experienced adverse events, resulting in drug withdrawal. Three women were pregnant when they were enrolled into the study, and three others became pregnant during the research. Six infants were vaccinated with live attenuated vaccines and inactivated vaccines according to the plan. No adverse event related to vaccination was reported, but one of the babies had perianal abscess and the other one had cold symptoms, while both improved after treatment. Conclusion:CZP can effectively control disease activity of women with inflammatory joint diseases during pregnancy, and intrauterine exposure is safe to infants during the study period.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effectiveness and safety of intra-articular in-jection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and hyaluronic acid (HA) in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.Methods:The relevant literatures published in both English and Chinese were systematically searched in PubMed, Embase, Wanfang database, China Knowledge Network (CNKI), SinoMed database and other data-bases from inception to May 2020. Two researchers independently extracted data and evaluated the included literature. Risk assessment of literature bias was carried out. RevMan 5.3 software was used for Meta analysis, and the combined sensitivity were calculated.Results:Finally, 13 references were included, including a total of 726 patients with knee osteoarthritis. Meta-analysis results showed that compared with the HA group, the Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteopathic Index Total Score (WOMAC) [ MD=-10.92, 95% CI (-16.87, -4.96), P<0.01], the visual analogue scale (VAS) score [ MD=-1.70, 95% CI(-2.44, -0.95), P<0.01], and the knee joint Lequesne index score of MSCs group all decreased significantly [ MD=-13.78, 95% CI (-15.03,-12.52), P<0.01]. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events (AEs) between the two groups [ RR=1.11, 95% CI(0.90, 1.37), P=0.33]. However, American Knee Association Score (AKS score) [ MD=-10.15, 95% CI(-22.33, 2.03), P=0.10] and whole-organ magnetic resonance imaging score (WORMS) [ MD=-3.93, 95% CI(-11.60, 3.75), P=0.32] were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with intra-articular injection of HA, intra-articular injection of MSCs can significantly improve the symptoms and dysfunction, and has favorable clinical tolerability and safety, suggesting that MSCs is expected to bea new treatment for knee osteoarthritis.
