ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanisms by which Bushen Tongluo Jiangzhuo prescription improves renal fibrosis in rats with chronic kidney disease （CKD） through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway. MethodsSeventy specific pathogen-free （SPF） Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a control group （n=15） and a modeling group （n=55）. Rats in the modeling group were administered a 2.5% adenine suspension at a dose of 200 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 by gavage for 4 weeks to establish a CKD model. Successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into a model group， an irbesartan group （20.25 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， and Bushen Tongluo Jiangzhuo prescription low-， medium-， and high-dose groups （5.82， 11.64， and 23.28 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively）， with 10 rats in each group. Each group was administered an equal volume of physiological saline， the corresponding concentration of irbesartan， or Bushen Tongluo Jiangzhuo prescription by gavage for 12 weeks. Body weight and renal function indices were dynamically monitored. Serum creatinine （SCr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio （ACR）， 24-hour urinary total protein （24 hUTP）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） levels were measured using an automatic biochemical analyzer. Renal histopathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to detect the expression of PI3K， Akt， phosphorylated Akt （p-Akt）， and mTOR in renal tissues. Western blot was performed to assess the protein expression of PI3K， p-Akt， Akt， phosphorylated mTOR （p-mTOR）， and mTOR in renal tissues. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to determine the mRNA expression levels of PI3K， Akt， and mTOR in renal tissues. ResultsCompared with the model group， rats in the irbesartan group and the low-， medium-， and high-dose Bushen Tongluo Jiangzhuo prescription groups showed significantly decreased levels of SCr， BUN， ACR， 24 hUTP， IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.01）. AST levels were significantly increased （P<0.01）， while no significant difference was observed in ALT levels. Histopathological examination revealed that， compared with the model group， renal tubular epithelial cell edema and necrosis and Bowman's capsule dilation were alleviated， inflammatory cell infiltration was reduced， and interstitial and glomerular fibrosis was markedly improved in all treatment groups， with the most pronounced effect observed in the high-dose Bushen Tongluo Jiangzhuo prescription group. Real-time PCR results showed that mRNA expression levels of PI3K， Akt， and mTOR were significantly downregulated in the high-dose group （P<0.01）. IHC results demonstrated that PI3K and p-Akt expression levels in renal tissues were significantly decreased in the high-dose group （P<0.01）. Western blot analysis further confirmed that the expression levels of PI3K， p-Akt/Akt， and p-mTOR/mTOR were significantly reduced in the high-dose group （P<0.01）. ConclusionBushen Tongluo Jiangzhuo prescription improves renal function indices in CKD rats， reduces collagen deposition in renal tissues， and decreases serum inflammatory factor levels. Its protective effect on renal function may be achieved by activating autophagy through downregulation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway， thereby alleviating renal fibrosis.

Atherosclerosis （AS） is a vascular disease primarily affecting large and medium-sized arteries. It serves as the pathological basis for many cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and is associated with a relatively high incidence of complications and mortality worldwide. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of AS， demonstrating unique therapeutic advantages through multiple targets and pathways. Ligusticum chuanxiong， a commonly used Chinese medicine in clinical practice， contains key active components against AS， including ligustrazine， senkyunolide， ligustilide， quercetin， ferulic acid， vanillic acid， chlorogenic acid， gallic acid， protocatechuic acid， caffeic acid， chrysophanol， and β-sitosterol. Recent literature indicates that these active components can regulate AS through multiple mechanisms， including improving endothelial cell dysfunction， alleviating lipid metabolism disorders， inhibiting macrophage foam cell formation， suppressing the invasion， proliferation， and migration of smooth muscle cells， inhibiting apoptosis， exerting anticoagulant effects and inhibiting platelet activation， protecting mitochondrial function， and modulating intestinal flora and its metabolites， demonstrating significant pharmacological activity and clinical potential. Clinically， L. chuanxiong is often combined with Salvia miltiorrhiza， Paeonia lactiflora， Angelica sinensis， and borneol to form compound formulations， enhancing therapeutic effects and achieving synergistic anti-AS activity. Compound treatment with L. chuanxiong primarily focuses on promoting blood circulation and shows significant efficacy for different AS syndrome types. This article provides an in-depth review of the active components， drug pairs， and compound preparations of L. chuanxiong in the prevention and treatment of AS， aiming to lay a foundation for subsequent theoretical research and clinical applications in managing AS and its related complications.

Objective To explore the relationship between dyslipidemia and cardiovascular disease risk in 340 patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 340 DM patients who visited the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2020 to January 2024 and were followed up for at least one year. According to the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in DM patients within 1 year of follow-up after treatment, the patients were divided into occurrence group and non-occurrence group. The demographic and related disease indicators in the two groups were statistically analyzed, and univariate analysis was performed. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting the risk of cardiovascular disease in DM patients. Results The survey results showed that 38 out of 340 DM patients developed cardiovascular disease within 1 year of follow-up after treatment, accounting for 11.18%, and 302 cases did not develop cardiovascular disease, accounting for 88.82%. There were no statistical differences in gender, age, education level, family history of DM, smoking history and alcohol drinking history between the two groups (P>0.05). The proportions of DM course (>10 years), hypertension history and abnormal blood lipid-related indicators in the occurrence group were higher than those in the non-occurrence group (P<0.05). Binary logistics regression analysis showed that DM course>10 years, history of hypertension and abnormal blood lipid-related indicators were independent risk factors affecting the risk of cardiovascular disease in DM patients (P<0.05). Conclusion The course of DM, history of hypertension, and abnormal blood lipid-related indicators in DM patients significantly increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. It is necessary to actively monitor and manage blood lipid levels to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Medical humanities consistently run through the entire process of medical development and educational reform. However， with the increasingly prominent dominance of evidence-based medicine in clinical practice， the medical humanities have gradually been weakened in both medical education and clinical practice. Narrative medicine， through telling and listening to patients’ stories， enhances healthcare professionals’ empathy， fosters doctor–patient communication， and facilitates a return to the humanistic essence of medical education and clinical practice. By sorting out and reviewing related literature and developmental trends both at home and abroad， this paper pointed out the existing structural problem of an imbalance between technological priority and humanistic care in medical education， focusing on how to achieve an effective integration of medical humanities and narrative medicine in medical education. This paper also systematically analyzed the significance of both medical humanities and narrative medicine in the medical education system and proposed promoting the deep embedding of narrative medicine in medical education from three entry points， namely， curriculum integration， interdisciplinary collaboration， and the construction of teaching evaluation systems. The aim was to provide theoretical support and practical experience for medical education reform， foster the coordinated development of professional competence and humanistic spirit among medical talents， and truly achieve the goal of cultivating well-rounded medical talents.

Objective To investigate the value of first platelet count(PLT)to respiratory rate(RR)ratio(PLT/RR)on admission in the diagnosis and prognosis of secondary sepsis in pneumonia patients.Methods A total of 100 patients with pneumonia admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from May 2023 to August 2024 were selected as subjects.According to the presence or absence of pneumonia sepsis,they were divided into sepsis group(63 cases)and non-sepsis group(37 cases).The secondary sepsis in pneumonia pa-tients were followed up continuously for 30 d.According to the survival situation,they were divided into sur-vival group(54 cases)and death group(9 cases).PLT in peripheral blood was measured,vital signs were col-lected on the first day of admission,and PLT/RR was calculated.The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of PLT,RR and PLT/RR for secondary sepsis in pneumonia pa-tients.The systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS)score,modified early warning score(MEWS)and quick sequential organ failure assessment(qSOFA)score on admission were calculated,and the clinical predictive value of SIRS score,MEWS and qSOFA score was compared.Results PLT and PLT/RR in sepsis group were lower than those in non-sepsis group(P<0.000 1),RR was higher than that in non-sepsis group(P<0.01).The area under the curve(AUC,95%CI)of PLT,RR and PLT/RR were 0.858(0.785-0.931),0.693(0.589-0.796)and 0.902(0.843-0.962),respectively.The optimal cut-off values were 146.5×109/L,20.5 per minute and 8.075,respectively.The specificity were 8.1%,83.8%and 2.7%,respec-tively.The sensitivity was 33.3%,50.8%and 30.2%,respectively.Compared with the non-sepsis group,the sepsis group had a significantly higher SIRS score(P<0.001),a significantly lower MEWS(P<0.000 1),and no significant difference in qSOFA score between the two groups(P>0.05).The AUC(95%CI)of SIRS score,MEWS and qSOFA score in predicting secondary sepsis in pneumonia patients were 0.717(0.616-0.818),0.748(0.650-0.846)and 0.505(0.389-0.622),respectively.The optimal cut-off values were 4.5,2.5 and 1.5 points,respectively.The specificity were 91.9%,2.7%and 100.0%,respectively.The sensitivity was 42.9%,33.3%and 6.3%,respectively.PLT and PLT/RR in death group were lower than those in sur-vival group(P<0.05),RR was higher than that in survival group(P<0.05).Secondary sepsis in pneumonia patients were followed up for 30 d,Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that patients with PLT≤138.5×109/L had a lower 30 d survival rate(P=0.007 8).Patients with RR>24.5 per minute had a lower 30 d sur-vival rate(P=0.016 1).Patients with PLT/RR≤6.375 had a lower 30 d survival rate(P=0.002 3).Conclu-sion PLT/RR can be used as a biological index to predict secondary sepsis in pneumonia patients,which is better than SIRS score,MEWS and qSOFA score,and the prognosis of secondary sepsis in pneumonia patients with low PLT/RR is worse.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of different doses of tranexamic acid (TXA) for traumatic hemorrhagic shock (THS) in the early phase of trauma following acute exposure to high altitude in rabbits.Methods:Twenty-five healthy male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into plain control group ( n=5) and acute high-altitude THS group ( n=20) according to the random number table method. The plain control group did not undergo THS modeling throughout the experiment while the acute high-altitude THS group was raised in a hypoxia simulation chamber with a volume fraction of 10% for 3 days to establish the THS model. Based on the different doses of TXA administered intravenously at 30 minutes after THS modeling, the acute high-altitude THS group was further divided into four subgroups: acute high-altitude THS+0 mg/kg TXA subgroup, acute high-altitude THS+45 mg/kg TXA subgroup, acute high-altitude THS+90 mg/kg TXA subgroup and acute high-altitude THS+135 mg/kg TXA subgroup, with 5 rabbits in each. The vital signs [mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate, rectal temperature] and blood cell counts [red blood cell count (RBC), platelet count (PLT)], 4 coagulation parameters [fibrinogen (FIB), D-dimer, activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), prothrombin time (PT)], thromboelastography [clotting reaction time (R value), clot formation time (K value), maximum amplitude (MA value)], syndecan-1, inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)], and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) were recorded before blood loss, at 30 minutes and 120 minutes after blood loss. At 6 hours after THS, the lungs, terminal ileum, and kidneys of the rabbits were collected to observe tissue damage, and the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D) and total water content (TLW) of the lung tissue were measured. Results:(1) Vital signs: Before blood loss, there were no significant differences in MAP, heart rate, or rectal temperature between the acute high-altitude THS subgroups and the plain control group ( P>0.05).

At 120 minutes after blood loss, syndecan-1, IL-6, TNF-α, and PAI-1 were significantly higher in the acute high-altitude THS subgroups compared to those in the plain control group ( P<0.05). Among them, the acute high-altitude THS+0 mg/kg TXA group exhibited significantly higher levels of syndecan-1, IL-6, TNF-α, and PAI-1 compared to the other acute high-altitude THS subgroups ( P<0.05). The acute high-altitude THS+45 mg/kg TXA subgroup had significantly higher syndecan-1, IL-6, and TNF-α compared to those in the acute high-altitude THS+90 mg/kg TXA and acute high-altitude THS+135 mg/kg TXA subgroups ( P<0.05), with no significant difference in PAI-1 ( P>0.05). No significant differences were observed in syndecan-1, IL-6, TNF-α or PAI-1 between the acute high-altitude THS+90 mg/kg TXA and acute high-altitude THS+135 mg/kg TXA subgroups ( P>0.05). (6) Tissue injury: At 6 hours after THS, acute high-altitude THS+0 mg/kg TXA group exhibited significant interstitial thickening of the lung with extensive inflammatory cell infiltration, localized loss of intestinal brush border accompanied by cellular disruption, and marked structural disruption of renal corpuscles with focal cellular injury and necrosis. At 6 hours after THS, the acute high-altitude THS+0 mg/kg TXA subgroup exhibited significantly higher lung injury scores, Chiu′s intestinal injury scores, and kidney injury scores compared to those of the other subgroups ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in the tissue injury scores of the lungs, intestines and kidneys among the other subgroups ( P>0.05). The acute high-altitude THS+0 mg/kg TXA subgroup also had significantly higher lung W/D and TLW compared to those in the other subgroups ( P<0.05). At 6 hours after THS, the acute high-altitude THS+45 mg/kg TXA group exhibited significantly higher W/D and TLW of the lung tissues compared to those in the acute high-altitude THS+90 mg/kg TXA and acute high-altitude THS+135 mg/kg TXA groups ( P<0.05), with no significant differences between the latter two subgroups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:At 3 days after acute exposure to high altitude, rabbits show a hypercoagulable state of the blood, accompanied by endothelial barrier dysfunction. At 30 minutes after the induction of acute high-altitude THS, a single slow intravenous bolus injection of TXA at doses of 90 mg/kg and 135 mg/kg is more effective in improving coagulation and fibrinolysis function, inflammatory response, endothelial injury, and reduced the risk of pulmonary edema than that at a dose of 45 mg/kg.

The paper summarizes the medication rules of Professor Zou Yanqin,a master of traditional Chinese medicine,in the treatment of membranous nephropathy by"sweet supplementation and bland percolation method".Professor Zou believes that spleen and kidney deficiency and damp-heat stasis are the basic pathogenesis of membranous nephropathy.The pathogenesis evolves in a com-plex way,leading to a variety of syndromes.Invigorating the spleen and kidney,clearing away damp-heat and removing blood stasis are the key to treatment.Therefore,she follows the concept of the"harmonizing method and gentle treatment"of the Menghe Medicine School and takes the"sweet supplementation and bland percolation method"as the basis of all treatment principles for membranous ne-phropathy.This article systematically expounds Professor Zou Yanqin's thinking and prescription rules for treating membranous ne-phropathy using the"sweet supplementation and bland percolation method"from three aspects:sweet and warm to tonify qi,sweet and cool to moistening,and bland flavor to promote diuresis and facilitate fluid expulsion.

Background and purpose:The ripple filter(RiFi)is a passive energy modulator used in particle beam therapy to broaden the Bragg peak.The 1D-RiFi features a wavy structure that can broaden a monoenergetic carbon ion beam to 3 mm,while the 2D-RiFi employs a two-dimensional groove structure to achieve a 6 mm beam broadening.This study aimed to evaluate the potential advantages of the 2D-RiFi over the 1D-RiFi in terms of dose distribution optimization,treatment efficiency,and organ at risk(OAR)dose control by comparing water phantom and clinical patient plans.Methods:Carbon ion treatment plans were designed for water phantoms and 20 patients using both 1D-RiFi and 2D-RiFi.The water phantom plans targeted a cubic region of interest(80 mm×80 mm×80 mm)at ranges of 95,105,190 and 290 mm.From patients who underwent carbon ion therapy at Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center,20 cases were selected via simple random sampling with computer-generated random numbers,stratified by the proportion of different tumor sites(6 head and neck tumors,4 prostate tumors,4 lung tumors,2 pancreatic tumors,2 liver tumors and 2 shoulder tumors).Key dosimetric metrics,including homogeneity index(HI),conformity index(CI)and clinical target volume(CTV)coverage by 95%prescription dose(V95),were analyzed along with OAR doses.Energy layers,beam time,and irradiation time were compared between the two RiFi types.Statistical analysis was performed using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test,with a significance level of P＜0.05.This study was approved by the ethics committee of Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center(approval number:240311EXP-01).Results:For water phantom plans,the 1D-RiFi plans achieved HI of 0.04±0.01,CI of 1.10±0.03,V95 of 99.92%±0.06%and flatness of 6.52%±0.61%,while the 2D-RiFi plans achieved HI of 0.04±0.01,CI of 1.11±0.04,V95 of 99.92%±0.06%,and flatness of 7.52%±0.81%.The mean doses to the distal and lateral block in 1D-RiFi plans were(1.34 Gy±0.43)Gy[relative biological effectiveness(RBE)]and(0.98±0.05)Gy(RBE),respectively,compared to(1.47±0.33)Gy(RBE)and(0.94±0.03)Gy(RBE)for 2D-RiFi plans.The use of 2D-RiFi reduced the average beam-on time by 43%and the number of energy layers by 48%.For clinical plans,the 1D-RiFi plans had HI of 0.07±0.04,CI of 1.94±0.67,and V95 of 98.81%±1.61%,compared to HI of 0.07±0.05,CI of 1.95±0.70,and V95 of 98.79%±1.69%for the 2D-RiFi plans,with no statistically significant differences(P=0.77,0.65 and 0.66,respectively).OAR mean doses increased slightly with the 2D-RiFi plans(average increase of 0.8%,P=0.62)but remained within clinically acceptable limits.The 2D-RiFi plans reduced energy layers by 45%-50%(average 48%),beam time by 32%-49%(average 44%),and irradiation time by 28%-41%(average 36%).Conclusion:Treatment plans using the 2D-RiFi achieved comparable target coverage to those using the 1D-RiFi,with a slight but clinically acceptable increase in OAR doses.The application of the 2D-RiFi significantly reduced the number of energy layers,beam time and irradiation time in carbon ion therapy,enhancing treatment efficiency.

OBJECTIVE To explore the risk factors for postoperative infectious endophthalmitis,distribution of pathogens and peripheral blood interleukin-17(IL-17),matrix metalloproteinase-2(MMP-2)and insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)in the patients with cataract and analyze the significance.METHODS A total of 60,000 patients with cataract who received surgical procedures in Daqing Eye Hospital from Jan.2018 to Jun.2024 were recruited as the research subjects.The aqueous humor and vitreous humor were collected from the patients with postoperative infectious endophthalmitis,and the isolated pathogens were identified.The baseline data were com-pared,the risk factors for the infectious endophthalmitis were analyzed.The levels of serum IL-17,MMP-2 and IGF-1 were compared,and the efficiencies of the indexes in prediction of infectious endophthalmitis were analyzed.RESULTS Totally 65,600 eyes involving 60,000 patients were enrolled in the study,21 of which(21 patients)were diagnosed with infectious endophthalmitis,with the incidence rate 0.032％.All of the 21 eyes were cultured positive for pathogens,among which gram-positive bacteria(73.08％)were dominant.Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis showed that complication with diabetes mellitus and vitreous overflow were the risk factors for the postoperative infectious endophthalmitis in the cataract patients.There were significant differences in the levels of serum IL-7,MMP-2 and IGF-1 between the infection group and the non-infection group after the surgery for 3 days(P＜0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis showed that the levels of serum IL-17,MMP-2 and IGF-1 after the surgery for 3 days could predict the occurrence of postoperative infectious endoph-thalmitis in the cataract patients,and the joint detection of the three indexes has highest predictive efficiency(P＜0.05),the area under the curve was 0.950,with the sensitivity 95.24％,the specificity 81.91％.CONCLUSIONS The incidence rate of postoperative endophthalmitis is 0.032％among the cataract patients.The complication with diabetes mellitus and vitreous outflow are the risk factors.The gram-positive bacteria are dominant among the pathogens.The changes of serum IL-17,MMP-2 and IGF-1 levels are closely associated with the occurrence of en-dophthalmitis,which has predictive value.

The generation of drug resistance in the process of tumor treatment is the key problem that the tumor cannot continue to be effectively treated. Studies have found that the drug resistance of multiple tumors is related to GSDME. Some chemotherapeutics can further induce programmed death of drug-resistant tumor cells through GSDME protein mediated by caspase-3, which is called pyrodeath. This paper reviews some clinical studies on the treatment of GSDME-related drug-resistant tumor cells, providing new insights and ideas for further treatment of clinical drug resistance.
