Objective:To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of HEMO-FISS-QoL(HF-QoL) questionnaire (HF-QoL-C) in the Chinese population with hemorrhoids.Methods:From November 2021 to November 2022, a self-constructed general information questionnaire, HF-QoL-C, and the 36-item short form health survey (SF-36), Goligher classification, and Giordano severity of hemorrhoid symptom questionnaire (GSQ) were used to conduct a questionnaire survey on 760 hemorrhoid patients in the anorectal department of six hospitals. The data was analyzed for reliability and validity using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 26.0 software.Results:The Cronbach's α coefficient of HF-QoL-C and its dimension ranged from 0.831 to 0.960, and the split coefficient was 0.832-0.915. Four common factors were extracted through principal component exploratory factor analysis. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated acceptable structural validity( χ2/ df=8.152, RSMEA=0.097, CFI=0.881, IFI=0.881, NFI=0.867). HF-QoL-C was correlated with SF36 and GSQ( r=-0.694, 0.501, both P<0.01). There were differences in the total score and dimensional scores of HF-QoL-C between surgical and drug treated patients, different grades of Goligher classification for hemorrhoidal disease, and different ranges of hemorrhoid prolapse (all P<0.001). No ceiling effect was found in the total score and the scores of each dimension(0.3%-2.0%). There was a floor effect in both psychological function and sexual activity dimensions (16.7%, 35.1%). Conclusion:HF-QoL-C has good reliability and validity, which can be used to measure the quality of life of Chinese hemorrhoid patients.

Protein phosphorylation modification is one of the key regulatory mechanisms in cellular signaling transduction and metabolic processes. The phosphorylation state of target proteins is regulated by specific protein kinases and phosphatases, which add or remove phosphate groups. Histidine phosphorylation (pHis) plays a crucial role in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes life activities and is linked to various pathological processes. Unlike the stable phosphorylation of proteins via phosphate ester bonds, histidine phosphorylation is linked through phosphoramide bonds, making it highly sensitive to high temperatures and low pH. This sensitivity has historically impeded progress in identifying and studying histidine phosphorylation. In recent years, the development of new techniques in phosphoproteomics and the emergence of pHis-specific antibodies have promoted the identification and functional research of pHis-modified substrates. For the first time, more than 700 pHis-modified proteins have been identified in mammalian cells, and pHis-modified substrates such as focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and phosphoglycerate mutase 1 (PGAM1) have been found to promote tumor development. This article mainly reviewed the key mechanisms and functions of histidine kinases and histidine phosphatases in regulating the histidine phosphorylation of specific substrates, and highlights their significant roles in human physiological and pathological processes, aiming to provide guidance for further research into the biological functions of histidine phosphorylation.

The paper is to establish an UPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of 19 components in Microctis Folium from different production areas. The 50% methanol was used as extraction solvent. The Agilent ZORBAX SB C18 (150 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) column was used; mobile phase was acetonitrile - 0.1% acetic acid with gradient elution, flow rate was 0.3 mL·min-1, colume temperature was 30 ℃, and the injection volume was 2 μL; electrospray ionizaton source was used and detected in negative ion mode. The results showed that the established UPLC-MS/MS method could well separate the 19 components, and the methodological investigation results of 19 components were good. By means of orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), 28 batches of Microctis Folium samples from different production areas can be divided into three categories, Guangdong, Guangxi and Hainan are each classified into one category, and 10 signature compounds which affecting the quality differences of different production areas were screened out. The established method is accurate, reliable, sensitive and reproducible. It can provide a basis for the establishment of the quality standard of Microctis Folium, as well as for safety and quality research.
