ObjectiveThis paper aims to investigate the material basis of the anti-inflammatory efficacy and mechanism of action of Bushen Tongdu prescription （BSTDP）. MethodsThe chemical components of BSTDP and its blood-absorbed components in vivo were systematically identified by using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-linear ion trap-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry （UPLC-LIT-Orbitrap-MS）. Network pharmacology was employed to screen blood-absorbed bioactive components and potential targets of this formula. A protein-protein interaction （PPI） network of core targets was constructed to conduct enrichment analysis. Molecular docking was further utilized to verify the binding affinity between key components and targets. The inflammatory model was established and verified in vivo by using a transgenic zebrafish Tg （mpx： GFP）. At three days post-fertilization （3 dpf）， larvae of zebrafish were randomly assigned to blank group， model group， positive drug dexamethasone acetate group （75 μmol·L^-1）， and BSTDP groups with low， medium， and high doses （500， 1 000， and 2 000 mg·L^-1）. The distribution and quantity of neutrophils in the yolk sac region were observed under a fluorescence microscope. The mRNA expression levels of key genes in the toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation factor 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor kappa-B （NF-κB） signaling pathway and inflammatory factors including interleukin （IL）-1β， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） were detected by Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultsA total of 120 chemical components were identified in BSTDP， among which 26 original components were confirmed by using serum pharmacochemical methods. A total of 227 common targets linking rheumatoid arthritis （RA） and the blood-absorbed components were screened by network pharmacology. It is suggested that pseudobrucine， vomicine， sinapine， rehmannioside， cinnamyl alcohol glycoside， and methylephedrine exert anti-inflammatory effects by acting on core targets including protein kinase B1 （Akt1）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3）， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）， TLR4， mitogen-activated protein kinase 14 （MAPK14）， and phosphatidylinositol-4，5-bisphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit α （PIK3CA）， thereby modulating multiple signaling pathways such as TLR4 and NF-κB. In vivo verification in zebrafish demonstrates that the maximum tolerable concentration of Bushen Tongdu Formula is 2 000 mg·L^-1. Compared to those in the blank group， zebrafish in the model group showed a significantly higher number of neutrophils in the yolk sac region （P<0.01） and rising mRNA levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB， TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β （P<0.01）. Compared to that in the model group， the number of neutrophils was significantly reduced in BSTDP groups with medium and high doses， as well as the dexamethasone acetate group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in the low dose group. The mRNA expression levels of TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB， TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β were significantly down-regulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionThis paper identifies the material basis of the efficacy of BSTDP， demonstrating that the formula can exert an anti-inflammatory effect through the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway. The results provide scientific experimental evidence for its further clinical application.

Based on spleen deficiency-phlegm dampness as the core pathogenesis of obesity， and integrating recent advances in modern medicine regarding the key role of immune inflammation in obesity， this paper proposes a multidimensional pathogenic network of "obesity-spleen deficiency-phlegm dampness-immune imbalance". Various traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） herbs that strengthen the spleen， regulate qi， and resolve phlegm and dampness can treat obesity by improving spleen-stomach transport and transformation， promoting water-damp metabolism， and regulating immune homeostasis. This highlights immune inflammation as an important entry point to elucidate the TCM concepts of "spleen deficiency-phlegm dampness" and the therapeutic principle of "strengthening the spleen and eliminating dampness to treat obesity". By systematically analyzing the intrinsic connection between "spleen deficiency generating dampness， internal accumulation of phlegm dampness" and immune dysregulation in obesity， this paper aims to provide theoretical support for TCM treatment of obesity based on dampness.

Objective To understand phenotype conversion in patients with first-episode depression over a 7-year period,to explore the longitudinal disease characteristics and functional outcomes of transitions and non-transitions,and to further analyse the relevant factors affecting transitions.Methods A total of 346 patients with Hamilton depression scale-17(HAMD-17)score≥18,aged 18-60 years and a single episode of major depressive disorder were included in the study.They were follow-up for 7 years to assess their natural history including demographic data,disease characteristics,whether transitions to manic occurred,treatment status.At the end of the 7-year follow-up,treatment emergent symptom scale(TESS),medication adherence rating scale(MARS),and global assessment function(GAF)were used to evaluate adverse reactions,compliance to medication,and patient's overall functional level.Patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of mania or hypomania episodes during the 7-year period:the conversion group(those who developed episodes)and the non-conversion group(those who did not).Results A total of 138 patients were followed up for 7 years,including 54 patients(39.1%)in the conversion group and 84 patients(60.9%)in the non-conversion group.When the first episode was enrolled at baseline,the age of first episode was earlier in the conversion group than in the non-conversion group[(27.63±9.63)years vs.(41.20±11.92)years],and there were differences in marital status(unmarried 40.7%vs.7.1%,first marriage 53.7%vs.85.7%,remarriage 3.7%vs.2.4%,separated/divorced 0.0%vs.2.4%,widowed 1.9%vs.2.4%).The proportion of patients with precipitating factors was lower in the conversion group(29.6%vs.48.8%)and shorter duration of untreated psychosis(DUP)[60(15,90)d vs.90(30,180)d].The treatment method in the conversion group had lower only used antidepressant drugs(61.1%vs.81.0%)and more antidepressant combined with mood stabilizers(31.5%vs.16.7%)(all P<0.05).In the 7 years,total number of episodes in the conversion group was more than in the non-conversion group(4.33±1.21 vs.2.70±1.25,P<0.05).By the end of 7 years,the GAF score was lower in conversion group than in the non-conversion group(66.57±8.22 vs.69.21±7.20,P<0.05).Dichotomous unconditional logistic regression analyses revealed that age at first episode(OR=1.109,95%CI:1.058-1.161,P<0.001),DUP(d)(OR=1.005,95%CI:1.001-1.009,P=0.017),was an independent influencing factor on conversion over a 7-year period in patients with first-episode depressive disorders.Conclusion The rate of conversion over 7 years in patients with first-episode depressive disorder is 39.1%in the present cohort and converted patients had relatively earlier age of onset,more pre-onset without inducement,shorter DUP(d),more recurrence,higher the rate of combined treatment and worse overall functional outcome.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of the DrCloudme platform in follow-ups of intracranial aneurysm(IA)patients.Methods A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 120 IA patients treated at Hechi People's Hospital from July 2021 to June 2024.Participants were equally allocated via random number table method into two groups:The control group(n=60)received conventional telephone follow-up post interventional embolization,while the intervention group(n=60)uti-lized the DrCloudme platform for digital follow-up management.Outcome measures included medical compliance,social functio-ning(assessed by Social Disability Screening Schedule,SDSS),quality of life(evaluated using Quality of Life Instrument for Head and Neck Cancer,QLICP-HN),follow-up completion rates,and patient satisfaction.Results The observation group dem-onstrated significantly higher medical compliance,follow-up completion rate,and follow-up patient satisfaction compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Additionally,the observation group had lower SDSS scores and higher QLICP-HN scores,indicating better social function and quality of life(P＜0.05).Conclusion The DrCloudme platform can not only improve the follow-up completion rate for healthcare providers,but also enhance medical compliance,social functioning,and quality of life among dis-charged IA patients.Moreover,it significantly boosts patient satisfaction with follow-ups.

Objective To explore the potential categories of psychosocial adaptation in psoriasis patients and their differences in social alienation.Methods Using a cross-sectional survey design,convenience sam-pling was used to select 376 psoriasis patients from multiple hospitals in Shandong Province from September to December 2022.Participants completed the general information questionnaire,Psychosocial Adaptation to Illness Scale(PAIS-SR),Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-Ⅱ(AAQ-2),and General Alienation Scale(GAS).Latent profile analysis was performed using Mplus8.0 software to identify psychosocial adaptation patterns of psoriasis patients,and SPSS25.0 was used to compare social alienation differences among different adaptation groups.Results Psoriasis patients could be divided into two latent profiles:moderate psychosocial adaptation group(31.38％)and low psychosocial adaptation group(68.62％).Medical payment method,dis-ease recurrence,psoriasis subtype,disease duration,family history,skin lesion exposure,and AAQ-2 scores were identified as main influencing factors(P＜0.05).Significant differences in total GAS scores were found between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion The psychosocial adaptation of psoriasis patients shows het-erogeneity and could be classified into two latent profiles.Targeted interventions should be implemented to improve psychosocial adaptation levels.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of β-glucan(BG)against intestinal ischemia reperfusion(II/R)injury by regulating the secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1).Methods Male C57BL/6 mice(6～8 weeks old)were subjected,and finally,the experiments had sham group,II/R group,II/R+BG group(0.1 mg/mL BG in drinking water for 2 weeks before modeling),II/R+liraglutide(LLT,GLP-1 analogue)group(0.2 μg/g LLT injected every 12 hours for 3 consecutive days before modeling),and II/R+BG+Ex9-39(GLP-1 R antagonist)group(intraperitoneal injection of 2 μg/g Ex9-39 1 h before modeling).After modeling,HE staining was used to observe intestinal morphological changes,and RT-qPCR and Western blotting were employed to evaluate the molecules(Occludin,ZO-1 and Claudin-1)related to intestinal barrier damage.The effect of 0.1 mg/mL BG treatment on the GLP-1 level in the serum and intestinal tissues of normal mice was determined with ELISA and immunofluorescence assay,respectively,and RT-PCR for the molecules related to GLP-1 expression(Gcg,Pcsk1/2,GIP and Foxa2).The effects of LLT and Ex9-39 pretreatment on intestinal morphology and intestinal barrier damage were also determined by morphological observation and expression levels of related molecules.Results II/R induced significant decreases in the mRNA levels of Occludin,ZO-1 and Claudin-1 and increase in Chiu's score when compared with sham control mice(P＜0.05).While,the mRNA levels of the 3 molecules were obviously higher and the Chiu's score was lower in the II/R+BG group than the II/R group(P＜0.05).BG pretreatment induced notably enhanced secretion of GLP-1 in the serum and intestinal tract of normal mice,and improved the mRNA expression of GLP-1-related molecules(P＜0.05).The intervention of GLP-1 analogue LLT could attenuate the II/R damage and decreased Chiu's score,with statistical difference in comparison with the II/R group(P＜0.05).GLP-1 receptor antagonist Ex9-39 reversed the protective effects of BG pretreatment against II/R damage,with notably differences in the expression of Occludin,ZO-1 and Claudin-1 and Chiu's score(P＜0.05).Conclusion BG can attenuate intestinal mucosal and functional injury after II/R by promoting intestinal GLP-1 secretion.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum T cell immunoglobulin mucin mole-cule-3(TIM-3)and netrin-1(NTN-1)levels and the risk of recurrence of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL).Methods A total of 60 children with B-ALL were selected from January 1,2021 to January 1,2023.According to the expression of fusion gene,the children were divided into fusion gene positive group(26 ca-ses)and fusion gene negative group(34 cases).The blood routine,inflammatory factor levels,TIM-3 and its ligand galectin-9(Gal-9),NTN-1 and its downstream protein phosphorylated protein kinase B(pAKT)and protein kinase B(AKT)levels were compared between the negative fusion gene group and the positive fusion gene group at admission.The patients were followed up for 1 year and the recurrence of B-ALL was counted.The difference of serum TIM-3 and NTN-1 levels between the children with recurrence and those without re-currence was compared,and the correlation between the levels of TIM-3 and NTN-1 and recurrence was ana-lyzed.Results Compared with before treatment,the levels of TIM-3 and Gal-9 in both groups decreased after treatment,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with before treatment,the levels of TIM-3 and Gal-9 in both groups were decreased after treatment,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The levels of NTN-1 and pAKT in fusion gene positive group were significantly higher than those in fusion gene negative group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05),but there was no statistical significance in AKT comparison(P＞0.05).In the follow-up period,there were 9 cases(34.61％)of recur-rence in the fusion gene positive group and 2 cases(5.88％)in the fusion gene negative group.The recurrence rate in the fusion gene positive group was higher than that in the fusion gene negative group,and the differ-ence was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The levels of TIM-3 and NTN-1 in recurrent children were sig-nificantly higher than those in non-recurrent children,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that TIM-3 and NTN-1 were independent risk factors af-fecting the prognosis of children(P＜0.05).Serum TIM-3 and NTN-1 levels were positively correlated with the risk of recurrence of B-ALL(r=0.445,0.437,P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of TIM-3 and NTN-1 are different in different types of B-ALL,which can reflect the risk of recurrence of B-ALL,and it is recom-mended to pay close attention to them.

Objective To develop a risk management system for complications associated with peripheral venous indwelling needles and to evaluate its application effect in order to reduce the risk of related complications.Methods We designed a comprehensive risk management system for peripheral intravenous indwelling needle complications,integrating specialized evidence-based guidelines with clinical practice insights,including 5 modules:intelligent assessment and decision support,intelligent inspection reminders,educational modules,collaborative case management procedures,and a knowledge base.Patients admitted to the neurology and internal classification metabolism departments of a tertiary hospital in Jilin Province were conveniently selected as the research subjects.Patients were assigned to a control group(from May to July 2022,before the implementation of the system)and an experimental group(from September to December 2022,after the implementation of the system).The incidence of complications,duration of indwelling needle,compliance rate of core indicators for nursing quality and number of nursing consultations were compared between the groups.Additionally,a self-administered questionnaire was used to assess clinical nurses'evaluations of the system.Results A total of 189 patients were included in the experimental group and 177 patients in the control group.The incidence of complications associated with peripheral intravenous indwelling needles was lower than that in the control group.The duration of indwelling peripheral intravenous needles was longer than that in the control group.The quality compliance rate of peripheral venous indwelling needle care in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,and the number of consultation cases in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group.Comparisons between the 2 groups showed statistically significant differences for all indicators(P＜0.05).The nurses'recognition rates for the system's user-friendliness,professional guidance,and patient benefit were 77.78％,81.74％,and 82.13％,respectively.Conclusion The application of a peripheral vein indwelling needle complication risk management system can reduce the incidence of complications,prolong the duration of indwelling,and improve nursing quality.Nurses have a high recognition of this system.
