Cardiac remodeling in microgravity exerts effects on astronauts'health and space mission efficiency.This paper analyzes the etiology,pathogenesis,prevention,and treatment of cardiac remodeling in microgravity based on the Trinity View of"Physique-Qi-Spirit"of traditional Chinese medicine.The microgravity environment disrupts the heaven-earth qi interaction law described in"Suwen Yin Yang Ying Xiang Da Lun":"Earth qi ascends to form clouds through heavenly evaporation,while heaven qi descends as rain".This disruption causes upward reversal of human qi and cephalad fluid shift,consequently influencing the dynamic balance of the physique-qi-spirit system and inducing cardiac remodeling.The core pathogenesis initiates with qi upward reversal at the initial stage,advances through spiritual disturbance during progression,and culminates in physical impairment at the terminal stage.We therefore propose a holistic"physique-qi-spirit"co-regulation strategy implemented via three therapeutic principles:regulating qi,stabilizing spirit,and restoring physique.This approach aims to restore the dynamic balance of the"physique-qi-spirit"system in microgravity,apply the concept of"preventive treatment of diseases",holistically prevent or delay cardiac remodeling,and provide Traditional Chinese Medicine solutions for safeguarding astronauts'cardiovascular health.

The"ying-wei imbalance"theory originates from Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor,which refers to the dynamic pathological process of yingfen and weifen circulation,distribution,posture,strength,and weakness due to internal and external disturbance,emphasizing that"ying-wei imbalance"is the key to disease occurrence.The sanjiao,as the"envoy of primordial qi,"is central to yingfen and weifen,and the coordinated operation of yingfen and weifen depends on the promotion of the qi of sanjiao.Therefore,based on the yingfen and weifen theory and sanjiao differentiation and treatment,this paper discusses the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic pulmonary heart disease,as well as the syndrome differentiation approach."Ying-wei imbalance"is the core of this mechanism:in the early stage,the loss of yingfen and weifen nutrition,combined with the deficiency of the qi of sanjiao,allows exogenous pathogens to invade the lungs.During progression,dysfunction in the transportation function of yingfen and weifen,along with the stagnation of the qi of sanjiao,results in pulmonary and cardiac involvement,accompanied by phlegm accumulation and stagnation.The end stage is characterized by the failure of both ying and wei,along with dysfunction of the sanjiao and zang-fu organs,which interact to form a pathological chain of"qi disease involving body."Accordingly,the treatment principle of"harmonizing yingfen and weifen,giving sanjiao treatment"was proposed.This is implemented through three therapeutic strategies:"harmonizing""returning",and"astringing"aimed at restoring balance.In the early stage,treatment focuses on tonifying the lungs and consolidating the exterior to eliminate pathogenic factors and activate stagnation.The selected formula is Buyuan Decoction with modifications to harmonize sanjiao.During the developmental stage,treatment focuses on promoting collaterals and dispersing phlegm,utilizing the modified Xuefu Zhuyu Decocotion to facilitate the restoration of function to the sanjiao.In the final stage,Fuyang Decoction,with modifications,is used to resolve fluid retention and nourish both qi and blood.Discussions are closely focused on the syndrome differentiation system of"sanjiao-yingfen and weifen,"in order to offer a novel perspective on the management of chronic pulmonary heart disease.

Objective To explore the potential pathogenesis of SLE and SS based on GEO database with screening differential expression genes common in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjogren's syndrome (SS),analyzing their functions and identifing their expression levels. Methods The gene expression datasets of SLE and SS whole blood samples were retrieved from GEO database. Differential expression genes in peripheral blood cells of SLE and SS were screened using gene expression datasets GSE50772,GSE81622,GSE84844 and GSE48378,respectively,and the shared differential expression genes of SLE and SS were screened. Functional analysis of differentially expressed genes was performed using Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG). Peripheral blood from SLE and SS patients and healthy controls were collected from March 2024 to April 2024,recruited from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University. Quantitative fluorescence real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to identify the expression levels of 11 genes with the most significant differences in expression. Results 232 and 110 differentially expressed genes were screened for SLE and SS,respectively,among which 32 genes shared by SLE and SS were up-regulated in expression levels. Functional analysis showed that the 32 differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in biological processes related to interferon (IFN) signaling pathways,defense response to viruses,response to viruses,negative regulation of viral genome replication,and immune response. KEGG pathway analysis showed that 32 differentialy expressed genes were associated with the process of viral infection. The clinical sample identification results showed that the expression levels of OAS3,IFI44,IFI44L and EPSTI1 were significantly elevated in PBMC of SLE and SS patients. Conclusion This study suggested that changes in biological processes related to IFN signal and viral infection response play important roles in both SLE and SS development,and may be a predisposing factor and potential biomarker for SLE and SS.

Background The job content of aircraft maintenance workers is complex, with high intensity and high requirements, and they are prone to work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs), but related research is relatively rare. Objective To investigate the positive rate of WMSDs among aircraft maintenance workers, evaluate ergonomic load, and analyze the risk factors of WMSDs. Methods We used a self-compiled questionnaire for WMSDs and the Quick Exposure Checklist (QEC) to investigate the basic situation, positive rate of WMSDs, and the ergonomic load of 2271 male maintenance workers in 6 departments of an aircraft maintenance company, including airline maintenance, overall overhaul, accessory/landing gear overhaul, engine overhaul, product customization, and power assist. We used a logistic regression model to analyze the risk factors of WMSDs in the neck, shoulder, hand/wrist, and lower back. Results The positive rate of WMSDs in the past 12 months was 70.4% (1598/2271) and the positive rate of WMSDs in different body parts ranged from 6.6% to 49.5%, with the top three parts of lower back, neck, and knee, respectively. There were statistically significant differences in the positive rate among different departments (P<0.05). The average QEC scores for neck, hand/wrist, and back (static) were moderate, while those for shoulder and back (dynamic) were high, and the body part specific positive rate of WMSDs increased with the increase of ergonomic load level. Working years (5-<10 years, ≥20 years), working with back flexed or twisted or side bent (moderately, excessively), high maximum force level exerted by one hand, and feeling difficult (sometimes, often) and stressful (moderately, very) while working were associated with higher risks of lower back pain (OR=1.486, 1.505; 2.151, 3.769; 1.637; 2.110, 2.407; 1.637, 1.794; P<0.05). Working years (15-<20 years, ≥20 years), working with head/neck bent or twisted (occasionally, continuously), feeling difficult (sometimes) and stressful (very) while working were associated with higher risks of neck pain (OR=1.731, 1.586; 3.732, 8.341; 1.633; 1.696; P<0.05). Working years (15-<20 years, ≥20 years), working with hands in a high position (at shoulder or above), very frequent shoulder/arm movements, feeling difficult (sometimes, often) and stressful (moderately, very) while working were associated with higher risks of shoulder pain (OR=1.587, 1.709; 1.299; 1.521; 1.643, 2.239; 1.659, 1.977; P<0.05). Working with wrist at deviated or bent angle, high repetition of similar movements, feeling difficult (sometimes, often) and stressful (moderately, very) while working were associated with higher risks of hand/wrist pain (OR=1.692; 1.670; 1.827, 2.884; 2.190, 2.625; P <0.05) . Physical exercise after work (≥3 times·week⁻¹) was associated with a lower risk of neck pain (OR=0.582, P<0.05). Shift workers were at a lower risk of shoulder pain and hand/wrist pain (OR=0.737 and 0.554, P<0.05). Conclusion The high positive rate of WMSDs symptoms among aircraft maintenance workers is related to individual, occupational ergonomic, and psychological factors, and active prevention and intervention should be taken.

【Objective】 To evaluate the therapeutic effect of probiotics on core symptoms in patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in order to provide theoretical basis for the treatment and intervention of ASD. 【Method】 Articles published from January 2000 to May 2023 on the effect of probiotics on core symptoms in ASD children were retrieved from 7 databases, including Chinese Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed), Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, VIP Citation Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4.Effect size, combine heterogeneity test sensitivity analysis and subgroup analysis were calculated. 【Result】 Totally 10 studies with 343 patients were included in this Meta-analysis.Meta-analysis showed that there was statistically significant difference in ASD core symptom score between the intervention group and the control group (SMD=-0.34, 95%CI: -0.55 - -0.12, P<0.05).Subgroup analysis showed that the efficacy of the trial conducted in Asian populations was not significant (SMD=-0.32, 95%CI: -0.63 - 0.00, P=0.05).In Caucasian populations, the therapeutic effect was significant (SMD=-0.35, 95%CI: -0.65 - -0.06, P<0.05).Grouped by age, it was found that the efficacy was not significant in trials involving adults (SMD=-0.12, 95%CI: - 0.57 - 0.33, P=0.61), but significant in trials involving only minors (SMD=-0.40, 95%CI: -0.65 - -0.16, P<0.05).According to the treatment course grouping, the intervention for less than 3 months (SMD=-0.35, 95%CI: -0.66 - -0.03, P<0.05) and more than 3 months (SMD=-0.33, 95%CI: -0.62 - -0.03, P<0.05) showed significant therapeutic efficacy.Grouped by bacterial strains, the efficacy of a single microbial community was not significant (SMD=-0.16, 95%CI: -0.46 - 0.15, P>0.05), while the efficacy of a composite microbial community was significant (SMD=-0.51, 95%CI: -0.81 - -0.21, P<0.05). 【Conclusions】 Probiotic therapy is effective in improving the core symptoms of ASD patients, but is influenced by factors such as race, age and probiotic strain. Composite microbiota has better efficacy in Caucasian and underage populations.

Hip surgery is often associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain due to exten-sive invasion.A safe and effective postoperative pain treatment can promote patients'recovering activities and facilitate the early functional recovery of the hip after the surgery.Although the routinely used intrave-nous self-controlled analgesia has an exquisite analgesic effect,it carries the risks of postoperative nausea and emesis,excessive sedation,intestinal paralysis,and even respiratory depression.As an alternative to transversus abdominis plane block(TAPB),lumbar quadratus block(QLB)has been gradually applied to the hip joint surgery.In this paper,we review the anatomical basis and characteristics of QLB and its clini-cal application in hip surgery,in order to provide the postoperative analgesia application of QLB.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy has achieved remarkable success in the treatment of hematological malignancies. Based on the immunomodulatory capability of CAR-T cells, efforts have turned toward exploring their potential in treating autoimmune diseases. Bibliometric analysis of 210 records from 128 academic journals published by 372 institutions in 40 countries/regions indicates a growing number of publications on CAR-T therapy for autoimmune diseases, covering a range of subtypes such as systemic lupus erythematosus, multiple sclerosis, among others. CAR-T therapy holds promise in mitigating several shortcomings, including the indiscriminate suppression of the immune system by traditional immunosuppressants, and non-sustaining therapeutic levels of monoclonal antibodies due to inherent pharmacokinetic constraints. By persisting and proliferating in vivo, CAR-T cells can offer a tailored and precise therapeutics. This paper reviewed preclinical experiments and clinical trials involving CAR-T and CAR-related therapies in various autoimmune diseases, incorporating innovations well-studied in the field of hematological tumors, aiming to explore a safe and effective therapeutic option for relapsed/refractory autoimmune diseases.
