[摘 要] 目的：通过多组学整合分析，解析肠道菌群在胆管癌（CCA）发生发展中的潜在作用机制并识别相关关键基因。方法：基于SRA数据库的16S rRNA测序数据，比较CCA患者与健康对照者的肠道菌群组成；采用孟德尔随机化（MR）分析评估菌群与CCA风险的遗传关联。通过gutMGene和GeneCards数据库获取相关代谢物与基因，进行代谢和功能富集分析。整合GEO单细胞转录组数据（GSE213452），解析肿瘤微环境的细胞组成，重点关注T细胞亚群及其功能状态，并结合TCGA-CHOL数据集验证关键候选基因的表达差异。结果：与健康对照组相比，CCA患者肠道菌群组成发生显著改变，变形菌门下菌群异常富集（LDA > 4）。MR分析进一步证实，肠杆菌目与肠杆菌科的遗传易感性均与CCA风险呈正向关联。代谢通路富集分析提示，菌群相关代谢物主要参与嘌呤代谢及糖酵解/糖异生等通路；功能富集分析显示，相关基因显著富集于NOD样受体、IL-17、Toll样受体及NF-κB信号通路等炎症免疫通路。单细胞转录组分析结果显示，CCA组织中肿瘤细胞比例显著升高（P < 0.05），T细胞比例由20.7%增至39.2%；拟时序分析结果表明，MKI67⁺ T细胞处于分化末期并呈高增殖特征，其差异基因与菌群相关基因存在交集，其中SERPINA1和IFNG表达在肿瘤免疫微环境中显著变化（P < 0.001），可能发挥核心调控作用。TCGA-CHOL数据集验证显示，SERPINA1在CCA肿瘤组织中显著下调（P < 0.001），而IFNG在肿瘤与正常组织间无显著差异（P > 0.05）。结论：肠道菌群失衡（尤其是肠杆菌科异常增殖）可能通过代谢-免疫调控网络促进CCA进展，T细胞功能变化与关键基因（SERPINA1和IFNG）在MKI67+ T细胞中的差异化表达模式密切相关。

ObjectiveTo explore whether the intestinal absorption solution containing Banxia Xiexintang （BXT） can inhibit the invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells by interfering with the stromal cell-derived factor 1 （SDF1）-CXC chemokine receptor 4 （CXCR4） axis in tumor-associated bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （TA-BMSCs）. MethodsThe intestinal absorption solution containing BXT was prepared， and the optimal intervention concentration and duration for MFC cells were determined through the cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay. A co-culture system was established comprising TA-BMSCs conditioned medium （TA-BMSCs-CM） and gastric cancer MFC cells. The experiment was conducted with a blank control group， a TA-BMSCs-CM group， an SDF1 inhibitor （LY2510924） group， and intervention groups with varying concentrations （55%， 70%， 85%） of the intestinal absorption solution containing BXT. Cell proliferation was assessed by the CCK-8 assay. Horizontal and vertical cell migration were evaluated via scratch and Transwell assays， respectively. Cell invasion was examined by a Transwell assay with Matrigel. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. The levels of factors such as SDF1， matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP-9）， and vascular endothelial growth factor A （VEGFA）， as well as the protein levels of macrophage migration inhibitory factor （MIF）， CXCR4， VEGFA， and MMP-9， were quantified by ELISA and Western blot， respectively. ResultsThe CCK-8 assay results indicated that compared with the 24 h intervention， the 48 h interventions with all concentrations of the intestinal absorption solution containing BXT increased the inhibition rate on MFC cells （P<0.01）. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration （IC₅₀） of the intestinal absorption solution containing BXT at the time point of 48 h was 68.51%， and subsequent intervention concentrations were selected as 55%， 70%， and 85%. Compared with the TA-BMSCs-CM group， the intestinal absorption solution containing BXT （particularly at concentrations of 70% 85%） suppressed the proliferation， migration， and invasion of MFC cells， promoted the cell apoptosis （P<0.05， P<0.01）， decreased the levels of SDF1， MMP-9， and VEGFA， and downregulated the protein levels of MIF， CXCR4， VEGFA， and MMP-9 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The inhibitory effects of the intestinal absorption solution containing BXT were comparable to or superior to those of the SDF1 inhibitor （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe intestinal absorption solution containing BXT can inhibit the invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells by interfering with the SDF1-CXCR4 axis in TA-BMSCs. The underlying mechanism may involve the regulation of the MIF/SDF1/CXCR4 signaling pathway and its downstream effector molecules.

ObjectiveTo observe how Banxia Xiexintang affects programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 （PD-L1） expression induced by exosomes derived from gastric cancer cells in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （BMSCs） through the protein kinase B （Akt）/c-myelocytomatosis oncogene （c-Myc） signaling axis， and its effects on the migration of BMSCs and gastric cancer cells. MethodsExosomes were isolated from human gastric cancer NCI-N87 cells and identified by transmission electron microscopy and Western blot. Rat BMSCs were passaged and identified by immunofluorescence staining. A Transwell chamber was used to create a non-contact co-culture system for NCI-N87 exosomes and BMSCs. The experiment was designed with normal， model， Banxia Xiexintang （10% serum containing Banxia Xiexintang）， PD-L1 monoclonal antibody （10% blank serum containing PD-L1 antibody）， and combination （10% serum containing Banxia Xiexintang and 10% blank serum containing PD-L1 antibody） groups. The suspension of BMSCs was added to the upper chamber of each group， with the normal group receiving serum culture medium without exosomes in the lower chamber， and the model group receiving NCI-N87 exosomes. The Banxia Xiexintang group， PD-L1 monoclonal antibody group， and combination group received 10% serum containing Banxia Xiexintang， 10% blank serum containing PD-L1 monoclonal antibody， and 10% serum containing Banxia Xiexintang and 10% blank serum containing PD-L1 antibody， respectively， in the upper chamber. After 96 h， BMSCs from the upper chamber were collected， and the protein levels of p-Akt， Akt， c-Myc， and PD-L1， as well as the mRNA levels of Akt， c-Myc， and PD-L1， were determined by Western blot and Real-time PCR， respectively. The migration of BMSCs and NCI-N87 was assessed by the Transwell method. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed increases in protein levels of p-Akt， c-Myc， and PD-L1， as well as mRNA levels of c-Myc and PD-L1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and no significant change in the protein and mRNA levels of Akt. Compared with the model group， the Banxia Xiexintang group， PD-L1 monoclonal antibody group， and combination group showed decreases in protein levels of p-Akt， c-Myc， and PD-L1 （P<0.01）. In addition， they had significant effects on the protein and mRNA levels of Akt. The combination group showed greater reductions in the protein and mRNA levels of c-Myc and PD-L1 than the Banxia Xiexintang group and PD-L1 monoclonal antibody group （P<0.05）. Compared with the normal group， the model group showed increases in the number of migrating NCI-N87 and BMSCs （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the Banxia Xiexintang group， PD-L1 monoclonal antibody group， and combination group showed decreases in the number of migrating NCI-N87 and BMSCs （P<0.05， P<0.01）， with the combination group showing greater reductions in the number of migrating NCI-N87 and BMSCs than the Banxia Xiexintang group and PD-L1 monoclonal antibody group （P<0.01）. ConclusionBanxia Xiexintang can lower the PD-L1 expression induced by gastric cancer cell-derived exosomes in BMSCs induced and inhibit the migration of BMSCs and gastric cancer cells. Moreover， it has a synergistic effect when being used together with PD-L1， possibly related to the regulation of the Akt/c-Myc signaling axis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the pathogenic spectrum and epidemiological characteristics of diarrheal disease in Fengxian District of Shanghai, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of diarrheal diseases. MethodsBasic information of the initial adult cases visited diarrheal disease surveillance sentinel hospital in Fengxian District, Shanghai, was collected from August 2013 to 2023, and fecal samples were collected at 1∶5 sampling intervals to isolate and identify 5 kinds of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC), Salmonella (SAL), Vibrio parahaemolyticus, Campylobacter, Vibrio cholerae, Shigella and Yersinia enterocolitica (YE). Simultaneously, nucleic acid detection was performed for 3 kinds of rotavirus, 2 kinds of norovirus, intestinal adenovirus, astrovirus and sapovirus. ResultsA total of 1 861 cases of newly diagnosed diarrheal disease were reported, with the peak in July to August. Additionally, 704 surveillance samples were detected, with a total positive detection rate of 50.57%. The detection rates of bacterial, viral and mixed infection were 25.14%, 21.02% and 4.40%, respectively. Among the pathogens detected, DEC accounted for the highest (17.61%, 124/704), followed by norovirus (16.48%, 116/704), rotavirus (6.39%, 45/704), SAL (5.97%, 42/704) and Campylobacter (3.84%, 27/704). DEC detected were mainly enteroaggregative Escherichia coli and enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, with no detection of Vibrio cholerae, Shigella and YE. The highest total pathogen detection rate was observed from June to September, and the detection peaks of norovirus were from March to June and from October to December, whereas that of DEC was from June to October. The detection rate of rotavirus peaked from January to February, but which was not detected between 2020‒2023. The SAL positive rate peak was in September, whereas that of Campylobacter was from July to September. ConclusionThe main pathogens detected in Fengxian District from 2013‒2019 are DEC, norovirus, rotavirus, SAL and Campylobacter. Different pathogens have different detection peaks, with bacteria predominating in summer and viruses in winter and spring. Prevention and control measures should be carried out according to the epidemiological characteristics of different seasons.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in combination with tadalafil in patients with thin endometrium undergoing artificial cycle frozen-thawed embryo transfer(FET).Methods A prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted involving sixty patients with thin endo-metrium who underwent artificial cycle FET at the Reproductive Center of Qinhuangdao First Hospital between January 2021 and October 2023.The patients were randomly assigned to two groups:the control group(n=30)received tadalafil,while the study group(n=30)received granulocyte colony-stimulating factor in addition to tadalafil.Endometrial ultrasound characteristics,uterine artery blood flow parameters,and pregnancy outcomes were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results Before treatment,no significant differ-ences were observed between the research group and the control group in terms of endometrial thickness or endome-trial volume(P>0.05).Ultrasound assessments were repeated after 8 and 14 days of treatment.Compared with baseline measurements,both endometrial thickness and volume exhibited significant increases in both groups(all P<0.05).By day 14 post-treatment,the research group demonstrated significantly greater endometrial thickness and volume compared to the control group(P<0.05).With regard to endometrial patterns,no significant differences were noted between the two groups prior to treatment(P>0.05).After 14 days of treatment,the proportion of patients exhibiting a Type A endometrial pattern in the research group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).Prior to treatment,no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of pulsatility index(PI),resistance index(RI),systolic/diastolic ratio(S/D),vascularization index(VI),flow index(FI),or Vascularization Flow Index(VFI)(all P>0.05).Following 14 days of treatment,both groups showed significant increases in VI,FI,and VFI compared to baseline values(all P<0.05),along with significant reductions in PI,RI,and S/D(all P<0.05).At 14 days post-treatment,the S/D ratio in the research group was significantly lower compared to the control group,while the VFI was significantly higher(P<0.05).However,statistical analysis showed no significant differences between the two groups in terms of embryo implanta-tion rate,clinical pregnancy rate,early miscarriage rate,and live birth rate(P>0.05).Conclusion For patients with thin endometrium undergoing FET,the combination of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and tadalafil is more effective than tadalafil alone in improving endometrial receptivity and uterine blood perfusion.

Objective:To develop the Discharge Readiness Scale for Patients with Chronic Skin Wounds and evaluate its reliability and validity.Methods:The Discharge Readiness Scale for Patients with Chronic Skin Wounds was developed through literature review, semi-structured interviews, Delphi expert consultation, and a pre-survey. Convenience sampling was employed to select 320 patients with chronic skin wounds hospitalized at Chongming Hospital, Shanghai University of Medicine and Health Sciences and Qingdao Municipal Hospital from June 2023 to December 2024 for formal investigation, conducting scale reliability and validity analysis. The critical ratio method and correlation coefficient method were used for project analysis. Content validity of the scale was assessed using item-level content validity index and average scale-level content validity index, and construct validity was evaluated through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. Reliability analysis employed Cronbach's α coefficient.Results:A total of 320 questionnaires were distributed, and 304 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 95.0%. The average scale-level content validity index was 0.91, and the item-level content validity index ranged from 0.80 to 1.00. Exploratory factor analysis revealed that the cumulative variance contribution rate of the five common factors was 67.483%. The overall Cronbach's α coefficient for the scale was 0.831. The final constructed scale comprised five dimensions of trajectory stage cognition, wound self-care skills, symptom management, psychosocial adaptation, and health information acquisition and resource utilization, with a total of 26 items.Conclusions:The Discharge Readiness Scale for Patients with Chronic Skin Wounds demonstrates good reliability and validity, providing clinical healthcare professionals with a standardized assessment tool.

Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is a group of autoimmune bullous diseases characterized by life-threatening intradermal blisters. Hashimoto thyroiditis (HT) is a kind of autoimmune disease with abnormal increase of thyroid peroxidase autoantibody (TPOAb), which is the thyroid specific antibody, leading to hypothyroidism. In recent years, the probability of HT in patients with PV is increasing, and the co-disease may be related to the effect of TPOAb autoantibody on oral keratinocytes. This article reviews the epidemiological relationship between PV and HT and the mechanism of TPOAb in their co-disease, in order to provide ideas for the diagnosis and treatment of both.

Objective:To explore the surgical efficacy of cervical cerclage with cervical length (CL) <10 mm and emergency cerclage.Methods:From January 2013 to June 2022, a total of 98 singleton pregnant women who underwent ultrasound-indicated cervical cerclage because of CL<10 mm in the second trimester and underwent emergency cervical cerclage because of cervical dilation found by physical examination in Peking University First Hospital were enrolled. The differences in clinical data between the <34 weeks delivery group (25 cases) and the ≥34 weeks delivery group (73 cases) were compared. Meanwhile, according to different cervical status, they were divided into CL<10 mm group (43 cases) and cervical dilatation group (55 cases), and the cervical dilatation group was further divided into cervical dilatation <4 cm group and cervical dilatation ≥4 cm group. The clinical data and pregnancy outcomes of pregnant women with different cervical status were compared.Results:(1) There were significant differences in the proportion of preoperative CL<10 mm and the degree of preoperative cervical dilation between the <34 weeks delivery group and the ≥34 weeks delivery group (all P<0.05). (2) After cervical cerclage, compared with women in the cervical dilatation group, the prolonged gestational age in the CL<10 mm group was longer [(10.5±4.6) vs (14.3±3.4) weeks], the gestational age at delivery was later (median: 35.7 vs 38.0 weeks), the preterm birth rates before 37 and 34 weeks were lower, the late abortion rate was lower [9% (5/55) vs 0 (0/43)], and the newborn birth weight was higher, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). (3) Compared with the cervical dilation ≥4 cm group, the prolonged gestational age of the cervical dilatation <4 cm group was longer [(7.5±5.3) vs (11.1±4.2) weeks], the gestational age at delivery was later (median: 29.2 vs 36.0 weeks), and the birth weight of the newborn was higher (all P<0.05). The late abortion rate of cervical dilatation <4 cm group was lower than that of cervical dilatation ≥4 cm group [7% (3/45) vs 2/10; P=0.220]. Conclusions:Timely cervical cerclage in individuals with CL<10 mm could reduce preterm birth rate before 34 weeks gestation, and the pregnancy outcome is better than that of individuals with cervical dilation. Moreover, the pregnancy outcome of cervical cerclage in women with cervical dilation <4 cm is significantly better than that in women with cervical dilatation ≥4 cm.
