AIM:This study aims to investigate how nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)influences the proliferation of primary rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells(PASMCs)under CoCl2-induced hypoxic conditions,spe-cifically through the aerobic glycolysis pathway,and to elucidate its potential mechanisms of action.METHODS:Prima-ry Sprague-Dawley(SD)rat PASMCs were isolated via enzymatic digestion and exposed to 200 μmol/L CoCl2 to establish a chemical hypoxia cell model.Experiments were conducted at various time points(0,6,24 and 48 h)to assess changes in the protein expression of key aerobic glycolysis enzymes[pyruvate kinase M2(PKM2),lactate dehydrogenase A(LDHA)and monocarboxylate transporter 4(MCT4)]and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)in PASMCs subjected to CoCl2 stimulation.The optimal concentrations of the Nrf2 activator dimethyl fumarate(DMF)and the inhibitor ML385 were de-termined using Western blot analysis.Subsequently,the cells were divided into four groups:normoxic control(NC)group,CoCl2 group,CoCl2+DMF group,and NC+ML385 group.The proliferation and migration abilities,along with the protein expression levels of HIF-1α,Nrf2,and key aerobic glycolysis enzymes,were assessed in PASMCs from each group.RESULTS:In the hypoxic model of rat PASMCs induced by CoCl2,Nrf2 protein levels significantly decreased over time(P<0.05),while the levels of key enzymes and PCNA protein significantly increased(P<0.05).Furthermore,the migratory capability of PASMCs was markedly enhanced(P<0.05).Under DMF intervention,the protein expression of key aerobic glycolysis enzymes decreased significantly,along with a reduction in the proliferation and migration abilities of rat PASMCs(P<0.05).Conversely,the experimental results showed opposite trends when Nrf2 expression was inhibit-ed by ML385(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Nrf2 plays a crucial role in mitigating the proliferation and migration of chemi-cally hypoxic primary rat PASMCs by downregulating aerobic glycolysis.

Objective : To investigate the drug resistance and pathogenicity of six clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneu- moniae (Kp) ，and to provide a basis for prevention and treatment of Kp infection． Methods : The six strains from different hospitals were isolated ，cultured ，and identified by species-specific gene khe． Their whole genome se- quences (WGS) were obtained using next-generation sequencing technology (NGS) ．Based on the WGS，the cap- sular serotypes，sequence types (ST) and drug-resistance genes of six strains were identified．The capsular sero- type genes and virulence genes were validated or identified using PCR. Broth microdilution tests were conducted to validate their drug susceptibility，and mice were challenged with Kp aerosols by MicroSprayer aerosolizer to evaluate their pathogenicity. Results : The six strains were all serotype K2 but belonged to four ST types ( ST14 ，ST65， ST700，and ST86) ，and collectively carried six virulence genes and 23 drug-resistance genes．All the six strains were resistant to ampicillin，but only one strain was multidrug-resistant．Four strains exhibited high mucoid charac- teristics．Five strains could cause mortality in mice，which were preliminary identified as high virulence strains. Conclusion For the six Kp clinical isolates from different sources，only one strain named NY 13294 is both multi- drug-resistant and highly virulent，and other four highly virulent strains are resistant to one or two types of antibiot- ics.

Objective:To investigate the teaching effect of blended teaching mode based on BOPPPS in the teaching of Natural Medicinal Chemistry.Methods:The undergraduate students of grade 2019 majoring in pharmacy of a medical college were selected as the research objects and divided into 2 groups randomly.Students in class 2 were set as the control group(n=27)and students in class 1 were set as the experimental group(n=29).The students of the two classes were taught by the same group of teachers.The control group adopted traditional teaching methods and classroom teaching as the main teaching mode combines with multimedia teaching.The experimental group received blended teaching mode based on BOPPPS.The final examination scores,teaching effects and student satisfaction of the two groups were compared and analyzed.Results:The survey results showed that the teaching effect of the blended teaching model based on BOPPPS was recognized by 96.55%of the students in the experimental group.The final examination score in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The teaching effect of the experimental group was significantly better than that of the control group(P＜0.05),and the satisfaction of students in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The application of blended teaching mode based on BOPPPS in the teaching of Natural Medicinal Chemistry can effectively stimulate students'learning interest and improve the teaching quality.

Objective:To systematically review the predictive model for de novo stress urinary incontinence (de novo SUI) after pelvic organ prolapse (POP) surgery, with the aim of providing reference for preventing the occurrence of de novo SUI.Methods:Literature on the prediction model of de novo SUI after POP surgery was electronically retrieved in PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang, and VIP. The search period was from the establishment of the database to December 31, 2023, and the language was limited to Chinese and English. Two researchers independently screened literature, extracted data, and used the prediction model risk of bias assessment tool (PROBAST) to evaluate the quality of the models.Results:A total of 13 articles were included, including 13 de novo SUI risk prediction models. One literature was a prospective study, one literature was a secondary analysis of data, and the rest were retrospective studies. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve in nine models ranged from 0.595 to 0.842, and the C-index of three models ranged from 0.710 to 0.738. Five models were not validated or only internally validated after construction. Six models were validated in one external population. The predictive performance of one model was validated in six external populations. The overall applicability of the 13 prediction models was good, but there was a certain risk of bias in all of them. Conclusions:There is a significant difference in the predictive performance of the de novo SUI risk prediction model after POP surgery, and the number is relatively small, indicating that it is still in the development stage. Future research should continuously optimize existing models and conduct external validation, and construct predictive models suitable for postoperative de novo SUI in POP patients in China.

Objective: To explore the characteristics of pain sensitivity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and to provide reference for clinical comprehensive intervention of ASD. Methods: A case-control study was conducted to investigate the characteristics of pain sensitivity in 142 ASD children and 142 normal children using the items related to pain sensitivity in the Autism Treatment Evaluation Checklist (ATEC). In addition, two recognized ASD model mice (BTBR mice and model mice induced by VPA) were selected as experimental group. The thermal pain threshold and mechanical pain threshold of BTBR mice were measured by electroshock seizure threshold and Von Frey filament test, and the differences of pain characteristics between BTBR mice and control mice were compared, the thermal pain threshold of model mice induced by VPA (VPA rats) was measured by electroshock seizure threshold, and the differences between BTBR mice and control mice (Con) were compared. Results: There was significant difference in pain sensitivity between ASD group and control group (χ 2=0.81，P<0.05), and the sensitivity of ASD children to pain was significantly lower than that of normal control children. The pain sensitivity of BTBR mice and C57BL/6 mice on the 42 nd day after birth was measured. The T-test analysis showed that the time taken for BTBR and C57BL/6 mice to retract their feet on the 42 nd day after birth (3.62±0.38,3.02±0.33)s (t=3.28,P<0.01), and the mechanical pain threshold (9.75±3.58,0.55±0.93)s (t=7.44,P<0.01). The detection of thermal stinging pain in VPA rats and con rats on the 9 th, 11 th, 13 th and 15 th day after birth was detected. The results of t test were as follows:P9(11.34±1.38,9.81±1.64)g, P11(11.37±1.98,9.36±1.11)g, P13(11.53±1.38,9.51±1.01)g and P15(12.05±2.91,8.74±1.60)g (t=-2.79,-2.25,3.95,3.95,P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with normal control children, ASD children show insensitivity to pain which is further supported by two types of animal models for ASD.
