ObjectiveTo explore the mechanisms of Qingchang Wenzhong Decoction （清肠温中方， QWD） in treating ulcerative colitis （UC）. MethodsA total of 100 male C57BL/6J mice were assigned to a pseudo-germ-free group （n=45） and a conventional group （n=55） using a random number table. Pseudo-germ-free model was established by giving antibiotic treatment and subsequently subjected to acute UC induction. After the model was successfully established， the 45 pseudo-germ-free acute UC mice were randomly allocated to a pseudo-germ-free model group， a pseudo-germ-free QWD group， and a pseudo-germ-free mesalazine group， with 15 mice in each group. The 55 conventional mice were randomly divided into a normal control group （n=10）， as well as a conventional model group， a conventional QWD group， and a conventional mesalazine group， with 15 mice in each group. Except for the normal control group， acute UC models were established in all other groups. Mice in the control group received no intervention. From day 32 of the experiment， mice in the pseudo-germ-free QWD group and the conventional QWD group were administered with QWD granules at a dose of 9.71 g/（kg·d） by gavage with deionized water， while those in the pseudo-germ-free mesalazine group and the conventional mesalazine group were given mesalazine enteric-coated tablets at a dose of 151.67 mg/（kg·d） by gavage. Mice in the remaining groups received an equal volume of deionized water once daily for 7 consecutive days. On day 25 of the experiment， six mice were randomly selected from both the pseudo-germ-free group and the conventional group to measure body weight， and fecal samples were collected for 16S rDNA sequencing to compare differences in gut microbiota， including operational taxonomic units （OTUs）， Shannon index， Observed_species index， and phylogenetic diversity （PD whole tree）. On day 39， body weight was measured in all groups， and the disease activity index （DAI） was evaluated. Colon length and colon wet weight were recorded. Histopathological changes in colonic tissues were assessed by hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining， and histological injury scores were determined. In addition， the expression levels of mucopolysaccharides and mucin 2 （MUC2） in colonic tissues were measured. ResultsOn day 25， there was no significant difference in body weight between the pseudo-germ-free group and the conventional microbiota group （P＞0.05）. Compared to the conventional microbiota group， the pseudo-germ-free group showed significantly reduced OTUs， Shannon index， Observed_species index， and PD whole tree （P＜0.01）. On day 39， compared to the normal control group， mice in the conventional model group showed a significant decrease in the body weight and an increase in DAI， along with increased colon wet weight， shortened colon length， markedly elevated histopathological scores， and reduced expression of mucopolysaccharides and MUC2 （P＜0.01）. In contrast， no significant differences were observed in these parameters in the pseudo-germ-free model group （P＞0.05）. Compared to the conventional model group， the conventional QWD group showed significant improvement in all measured parameters， whereas the conventional mesalazine group showed reductions only in DAI scores and colon wet weight （P＜0.01）. No statistically significant differences were observed among the pseudo-germ-free model group， the pseudo-germ-free QWD group， and the pseudo-germ-free mesalazine group （P＞0.05）. ConclusionQWD may promote the reconstruction of the intestinal mucus barrier by regulating the intestinal flora， thereby exerting a therapeutic effect on acute UC.

Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

OBJECTIVE To explore the changes of serum Toll-like receptor(TLR)2,TLR4 and 25 hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D]in the general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmonary infections and analyze the distribution and drug resistance of pathogens.METHODS A total of 59 general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmonary infections who were treated in Tianjin Fifth Central Hospital from Jul.2019 to Jul.2024 were chosen as the infection group,meanwhile,65 patients who underwent the same surger-y but did not have postoperative pulmonary infection or other acute and chronic infections were chosen as the non-infection group.The etiological characteristics of the postoperative pulmonary infections and the drug re-sistance rates were analyzed.The clinical data and the levels of serum TLR2,TLR4 and 25(OH)D were observed and compared between the two groups of patients.The values of the above indicators in diagnosis of the postopera-tive pulmonary infections in the general anesthesia orthopedic surgery were analyzed.RESULTS Totally 63 strains of pathogens were isolated from the 59 general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmona-ry infections,36(57.14％)of which were gram-negative bacteria.3 of 15 Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains were resistant to meropenem;4 of 12 Klebsiella pneumoniae strians were resistant to meropenem;all of the 11 Staph-ylococcus aureus strains were methicilin-resistant S.aureus.The proportions of patients with age,hypoproteine-mia and diabetes mellitus,the serum TLR2 and TLR4 levels were higher in the infection group than in the non-infection group(P＜0.05),while the 25(OH)D level of the infection group was lower than that of the no in-fection group(P＜0.05).The area under the curves(AUCs)of serum TLR2,TLR4,25(OH)D and the joint de-tection of the above indicators were respectively 0.817,0.801,0.787 and 0.917 in diagnosis of postoperative pul-monary infections in the general anesthesia orthopedic surgery patients,and the AUC of the joint detection of the indicators was greater than that of the single detection(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS The general anesthesia or-thopedic surgery patients with postoperative pulmonary infections show high expressions of serum TLR2 and TLR4 and the low expression of 25(OH)D.The joint detection of the above indexes has higher diagnostic value.The gram-negative bacteria are dominant among the pathogens causing the infections.The pathogens vary in the drug resistance.

Dental-derived mesenchymal stem cells (DMSC), owing to their self-renewal capacity and multi-lineage differentiation potential, have demonstrated significant promise in the field of oral tissue regeneration. Mitochondria, as essential organelles within cells, can not only be responsible for energy metabolism but also influence the maintenance of stem cell stemness and the direction of differentiation by regulating cellular metabolic processes, apoptosis, and signal transduction pathways. In recent years, the mechanisms by which mitochondria participating in the osteogenic and odontogenic differentiation of DMSC have gradually become a research focus. This paper reviews the regulatory mechanisms of mitochondria in the osteogenic and odontogenic differentiation of DMSC, with emphasis on how mitochondrial energy metabolism (oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis) and quality control processes (namely biogenesis, dynamics as fission and fusion, and autophagy) modulate the differentiation of DMSC. The aim is to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the research and application of dental pulp regeneration, periodontal tissue regeneration, and other aspects of oral tissue engineering.

Objective:To understand the current status of epidemiological investigation task force construction and the performance of infectious disease epidemic response in county (district) Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCs) in China, analyze the influencing factors and provide scientific evidence to improve the construction of grassroot epidemiological investigation task force.Methods:A survey was conducted in epidemiological investigation staff in county (district) CDCs in 31 provinces (autonomous regions/municipalities) and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps in China. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect information based on the epidemiological dynamic data collection platform of China CDC. A descriptive epidemiological analysis was conducted, and multiple linear regression models were used to identify the factors associated with the performance of infectious disease epidemic response.Results:A total of 24 934 epidemiological investigation task force members from 2 897 county (district) CDCs were surveyed in the study. In the epidemiological investigation task force, women, those with bachelor's degree and public health workers accounted for 62.46%, 71.36%, and 49.05% respectively. Up to 91.72% of the task force members had participated in field epidemic response. The average score of awareness of epidemic investigation procedures was 60.00, while the average score of key skill proficiency in the investigation was 42.22. The epidemic response performance showed correlations with area, gender, age, education level, major, and field epidemiology training programs, those who had received longer training showed higher competency scores (all P<0.001). Conclusions:Progress has been made in the construction of epidemiological investigation task force in grass-root CDCs in China, but further improvements are needed, especially in the knowledge awareness and investigation skills of the task force. Field epidemiology training demonstrated substantial impact on the improvement of epidemic response performance, indicating that it is necessary to further strengthen the training in grassroot public health workers for the better response to infectious disease epidemics.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of Huangqi Jianzhong Decoction(HJD)on gastric mucosal injury induced by Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection.Methods A Wistar rat model of Hp-induced gastric mucosal injury was established.Successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into five groups:model group,low-,medium-and high-dose HJD groups,and quadruple therapy group(Omeprazole+Amoxicillin+Clarithromycin+Colloidal Bismuth pectin),8 rats per group,with an additional normal group.After 4 weeks of treatment,gastric mucosal pathological changes were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.Serum levels of interleukin 1β(IL-1β),interleukin 18(IL-18),tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),chemokine(C-X-C motif)ligand 1(CXCL1),chemokine(C-X-C motif)ligand 9(CXCL9),and gastrin-17(G-17)were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Protein expression levels of IRF8,IFN-γ,interferon-induced tetratricopeptide repeat protein 3(Ifit3)and uridine phosphorylase 1(Upp1)in gastric mucosal tissues were detected by Western Blot.Results Compared with the normal group,the model group exhibited significant gastric mucosal damage,serum levels of IL-1β,IL-18,TNF-α,CXCL1 and CXCL9 were significantly increased,G-17 was drcreased,and protein expression levels of IRF8,IFN-γ,Ifit3 and Upp1 in gastric mucosa were significantly increased,the differences being statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the gastric mucosal tissue injury of rats in the medium-and high-dose of HJD groups and the quadruple therapy group was significantly improved,the levels of IL-1β,IL-18,TNF-α,CXCL1 and CXCL9 in serum were significantly decreased,G-17 was significantly increased,and the protein expression levels of IRF8,IFN-γ,Ifit3 and Upp1 in gastric mucosa were significantly decreased,the differences being statistically significant(P＜0.05).The effect in above indexes in high-does HJD groups was superior to the low-and mediun-groups.Conclusion HJD alleviates Hp-induced gastric mucosal injury by inhibiting the IRF8/IFN-γ signaling pathway and subsequent inflammatory responses.

Objective To profile ubiquitination in cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-2(CASP2)deficient cells under heat shock and investigate the role of CASP2 in stress response.Methods Ubiquitination levels in subcellular fractions of control and C ASP2 knockout(KO)cells were detected via Western blotting.After 2 hours of heat shock treatment,Soluble Ⅱ and Pellet fractions were collected from both control and CASP2 KO cells for ubiquitinome analysis.Anti-di-glycine remnant(K-ε-GG)antibody-based proteomic analysis was performed to identify differentially ubiquitinated proteins and associated key signaling pathways.Proteins that displayed significantly upregulated ubiquitination in CASP2 KO cells under heat shock were subjected to His-tag pull-down assays to find out whether CASP2 regulated the ubiquitination of these proteins.Results Under heat shock,CASP2 KO cells displayed significantly higher accumulation of overloaded ubiquitinated conjugates in the Pellet fraction compared to controls.Ubiquitinomics analysis revealed substantial alterations in protein ubiquitination patterns following CASP2 KO.One hundred proteins exhibited significantly elevated ubiquitination levels while 36 proteins had their ubiquitination reduced relative to controls.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment analysis indicated that hyper-ubiquitinated proteins were primarily associated with Huntington disease,Alzheimer disease,bile secretion,carbon metabolism and autophagy.His-tag pull-down assays combined with Western blotting revealed increased ubiquitination of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide reduced-ubiquinone oxidoreductase 1 beta subcomplex subunit 3(NDUFB3)and autophagy-related protein 9A(ATG9A)in CASP2 KO cells under heat shock.Conclusion Overloaded ubiquitinated conjugates are accumulated due to CASP2 deficiency during heat shock.CASP2 modulates ubiquitination levels through multiple signaling pathways.

BACKGROUND:It has been confirmed that ferroptosis is closely related to the mechanism of various nervous diseases.However,the pathological mechanisms of ferroptosis and peripheral nerve injury need to be further studied and clarified.OBJECTIVE:To review the role and mechanism of ferroptosis in the treatment of peripheral nerve injury.METHODS:The articles related to ferroptosis and nervous system injuries were searched in CNKI and PubMed databases from database inception to May 2024.The keywords were"ferroptosis,peripheral nerve injury,antioxidant defense system,Schwann cells,macrophage,neuroinflammation,neuropathic pain"in Chinese and English,respectively.Sixty eligible articles were finally included for review.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The occurrence of ferroptosis is closely related to abnormal intracellular iron metabolism,reactive oxygen species accumulation and lipid peroxidation.Ferroptosis occurs in both Schwann cells and macrophages after peripheral nerve injury,leading to changes in the microenvironment and further inducing diseases such as neuroinflammation and neuropathic pain.Increasing studies have shown that nerve injury is closely related to ferroptosis,and inhibition of ferroptosis can promote tissue repair and functional recovery after peripheral nerve injury.Therefore,it is of great significance to study the mechanism underlying the occurrence and regulation of ferroptosis after peripheral nerve injury.Current research on the role and regulation of ferroptosis after peripheral nerve injury is still in its infancy,and more in-depth studies are needed to provide more strategies to promote repair after peripheral nerve injury.
