OBJECTIVE To assess the bleeding risk signals associated with the concomitant use of direct oral anticoagulants （DOACs） and triazole antifungals， and to provide pharmacovigilance evidence for the safety evaluation and monitoring of combined clinical use. METHODS Adverse event reports involving the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals were extracted from the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System （FAERS） from the first quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2025. Nine bleeding-related preferred terms （PTs） were selected. The Ω shrinkage measure， additive model， multiplicative model， and combined risk ratio method were employed to detect drug-drug interaction signals. The strength of positive signals was further analyzed based on the Ω shrinkage measure. RESULTS A total of 790 adverse event reports involving the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals were included， among which 229 reports involved nine bleeding-related PTs. A total of 13 signals were consistently identified as posit ive by all four methods. These signals involved six drug combinations： apixaban-fluconazole， apixaban-posaconazole， rivaroxaban-itraconazole， dabigatran etexilate-fluconazole， apixaban-voriconazole， and dabigatran etexilate-itraconazole. The Ω shrinkage measure showed that the apixaban-posaconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for bleeding （ Ω ＝2.73， Ω 025 ＝2.05） and hemoptysis （ Ω ＝2.17， Ω 025 ＝0.83）； the apixaban-fluconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for hematoma （ Ω ＝2.30， Ω 025 ＝1.47） and hematuria （ Ω ＝1.71， Ω 025 ＝0.74）； the rivaroxaban-itraconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for epistaxis （ Ω ＝2.01， Ω 025 ＝0.90） and hematoma （ Ω ＝1.93， Ω 025 ＝0.42）； no positive Ω signals were observed for intracranial hemorrhage or upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. CONCLUSION S This study suggests that the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals may increase the risk of bleeding-related events， with differences in signal strength and signal distribution across various drug combinations. In clinical practice， particular attention should be paid to the concomitant use of apixaban or rivaroxaban with strong cytochrome P450 3A4 or P-glycoprotein inhibitors such as posaconazole and itraconazole. For other DOAC-triazole antifungal combinations， close monitoring for bleeding-related manifestations and timely adjustment of anticoagulation or antifungal regimens are also warranted.

Objective: To understand the current status of short video addiction among vocational nursing students in higher vocational colleges (hereinafter referred to as "nursing students") and its related factors, so as to provide a reference for formulating online education programs in colleges. Methods: From March to May 2025, a stratified random sample of 2 223 nursing students from four vocational colleges in Henan Province was selected. Short Video Addiction Scale for College Students, Short form Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran for Chinese, Peer Rejection Scale, and University of California at Los Angels Loneliness Scale were used for investigation. Chi square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to explore the related factors of short video addiction among nursing students. Results: The detection rate of short video addiction of higher vocational nursing students was 26.95%, and the scores for avoidance, loss of control, inefficiency and withdrawal were (8.05±2.97) (10.24±3.09) (4.99±1.88) and (11.97±4.10), respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that sophomore year 2 ( OR=1.83, 95%CI =1.39-2.40), higher maternal education level (secondary school/vocational college: OR =1.34, 95% CI =1.06-1.68; college/undergraduate: OR =1.38, 95% CI =1.05-1.82), paternal overprotection ( OR=1.59, 95%CI =1.27-2.00), high peer rejection ( OR=1.40, 95%CI =1.19-1.66), and strong loneliness ( OR=1.57, 95%CI =1.07-2.28) were associated with a higher risk of short video addiction among nursing students (all P <0.05). Paternal affectionate and warm rearing style ( OR=0.82, 95%CI = 0.71- 0.95) was associated with a lower risk of short video addiction ( P <0.05). Conclusions The detection rate of short video addiction among nursing students is relatively high. Short video addiction is related to the nursing students grade, maternal education level, paternal overprotection and affectionate rearing style, peer rejection, and loneliness.

Objective: To investigate the mechanism of Anemoside B4 (AB4) on glutamine metabolism in oral li- chen planus (OLP) epithelial cells via the nitric oxide synthase 3 (NOS3)-dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) axis . Methods: Bioinformatics analysis was performed to identify the intersection of molecular targets of OLP , AB4 , and genes related to glutamine metabolism . A lipopolysaccharide ( LPS)-induced HOK-16B model of OLP was estab- lished . HOK-16B were divided into Ctrl group , OLP group , AB4 group , OLP + oe-NOS3 group , OLP + sh-NOS3 group , OLP + sh-NOS3 + oe-DHFR group , and OLP + sh-NOS3 + AB4 group . Cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) ; cell apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling ( TUNEL) ; inflammatory factors iInterleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factors-α ( TNF-α) concentrations in cell supernatants were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits; glutamine uptake and glutamate produc- tion were determined using kits; and the protein expression of alanine-serine-cysteine transporter2 ( ASCT2) and glutamine synthase (GLS) was assessed by Western blot. Results: Bioinformatics analysis of molecular targets of OLP , AB4 , and genes related to glutamine metabolism revealed three intersection targets : NFE2L2 , NOS1 , and NOS3 . Compared with the Ctrl group , the OLP group exhibited decreased HOK-16B cell viability (P < 0. 001) , increased apoptosis rate (P < 0. 01) , upregulated concentrations of IL-1βand TNF-α(P < 0. 001) , elevated glu- tamine uptake and glutamate production (P < 0. 01) , and enhanced expression of ASCPT2 and GLS proteins (P < 0. 001) . Compared with the OLP group , the AB4 group showed improved cell viability (P < 0. 05) , reduced apop- tosis rate and release of IL-1βand TNF-α(P < 0. 05) , decreased glutamine uptake and glutamate production (P < 0. 05) , and downregulated expression of ASCPT2 and GLS proteins ( P < 0. 001) . Compared with the OLP group , the OLP + oe-NOS3 group had increased HOK-16B cell viability (P < 0. 01) , reduced apoptosis rate (P < 0. 05) , decreased concentrations of IL-1βand TNF-α(P < 0. 05) , lowered glutamine uptake and glutamate pro- duction (P < 0. 05) , and weakened expression of ASCPT2 and GLS proteins (P < 0. 01) ; whereas the OLP + sh- NOS3 group had decreased HOK-16B cell viability ( P < 0. 05) , increased apoptosis rate ( P < 0. 05) , elevated concentrations of IL-1βand TNF-α ( P < 0. 01 ) , increased glutamine uptake and glutamate production ( P < 0. 05) , and enhanced expression of ASCPT2 and GLS proteins (P < 0. 001) . Compared with the OLP + sh-NOS3 group , both the OLP + sh-NOS3 + oe-DHFR group and the OLP + sh-NOS3 + AB4 group showed increased HOK- 16B cell viability (P < 0. 001) , reduced apoptosis rate (P < 0. 05) , decreased concentrations of IL-1βand TNF-α (P < 0. 01) , lowered glutamine uptake and glutamate production ( P < 0. 05) , and weakened expression of AS- CPT2 and GLS proteins ( P < 0. 05) . Conclusion AB4 inhibits the progression of OLP by mediating glutamine metabolism via the regulation of the NOS3-DHFR axis .

AIM:To explore suitable methods for the induction and cryopreservation of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages(BMDMs).METHODS:Mouse fibroblasts(L929 cells)were cultured under varying conditions of temperature,seeding density,and serum concentration.The concentration of macrophage colony-stimulating factor(M-CSF)in the cell supernatant was measured using ELISA to determine the optimal conditions.Mouse bone marrow cells were extracted,and a differential adherence method was employed to pre-culture the bone marrow cells for 4 h,followed by flow cytometry to assess the proportion of resident macrophages.Flow cytometry was utilized to assess the ratio of F4/80 positive cells among the suspended and adherent cells.Induction of BMDMs was conducted using L929 cell supernatant or recombinant M-CSF for 7 d,and flow cytometry was applied to evaluate the proportion of F4/80 and CD11b double-positive cells.The morphologic changes during cell induction were observed under an inverted microscope,and the phagocytic ca-pacity and inflammatory response levels of BMDMs derived from C57BL/6N and C57BL/6J mice were evaluated using neu-tral red and ELISA methods.The cells were immediately cryopreserved after extraction,and then induced after recovery,or cryopreserved after successful induction and recovered.The cell morphology was observed under an inverted micro-scope,cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 method,and phagocytic ability was measured using the neutral red method.RESULTS:The M-CSF concentration in the supernatant from L929 cells cultured at 33℃,10%fetal bovine se-rum(FBS)for 7 d was rich.Following 4 h of pre-culture,the proportion of F4/80 positive cells in adherent cells was sig-nificantly higher than that in suspended cells(P＜0.01).After 7 d of induction with L929 cell supernatant or recombinant M-CSF,the proportions of F4/80+CD11b+cells showed no significant difference(P＞0.05).Compared with the BMDMs derived from C57BL/6J mice,those from C57BL/6N mice exhibited stronger phagocytic capacity(P＜0.01),and released lower levels of TNF-α(P＜0.01)and IL-6(P＜0.05),and higher levels of IL-1β(P＜0.05).Compared with the BMDMs that were induced after recovery from initial cryopreservation,those cryopreserved immediately after extraction and in-duced upon recovery exhibited better macrophage morphology,higher cell viability(P＜0.01),and enhanced phagocytic ability(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:The supernatant from L929 cells cultured at 33℃,10%FBS for 7 d is rich in M-CSF,successfully inducing bone marrow cells to differentiate into mouse BMDMs.The differential adherence method for pre-culturing can eliminate resident macrophages from the original bone marrow.The phagocytic capacity and inflammato-ry response levels differ between BMDMs derived from the C57BL/6N and C57BL/6J mouse subtypes.Cryopreserving bone marrow cells immediately after extraction and subsequently inducing them upon recovery is a preferable method for BMDM cryopreservation.

Objective:To explore differences in the radiation-induced intestinal injury in mice exposed to ultra-high dose rate (FLASH) and conventional-dose-rate (CONV) pulsed X-ray irradiation in order to provide evidence for the application of ultra-high dose rate pulsed X-rays in gastrointestinal radiotherapy.Methods:Using the random number table method, 32 C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into four groups: a sham irradiation group (SHAM), two conventional dose rate groups (CONV0.067 and CONV0.1), and an ultra-high dose rate group (F215), with each group containing eight mice. All groups, except SHAM, received a single 12 Gy abdominal X-ray irradiation at dose rates of 0.067, 0.1, and 215 Gy/s, respectively. At 3 d post-irradiation, histopathological (hematoxylin-eosin staining, HE staining), immunohistochemical, and Western blot analysis were performed to assess the histopathological markers and oxidative stress indicators of intestinal tissues, as well as relevant proteins involved in signaling pathways.Results:At 3 d post-irradiation, mice in all irradiation groups suffered from varying degrees of intestinal tissue degeneration and necrosis, epithelial cell shedding, villus shortening, and crypt loss ( t = 5.75, 8.79, 5.71, P < 0.05). Regarding oxidative stress, at 3 d post-irradiation, mice in the CONV0.067 and CONV0.1 groups showed significantly lower levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-PX), glutathione (GSH), and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) compared to those in the F215 group ( t = 7.06-10.64, P < 0.01). In contrast, their malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly elevated ( t = 11.06, 8.31, P < 0.01), with no statistical significance observed between them and mice in the F215 group ( P > 0.05). Immunohistochemical and Western blot analyses indicated that at 3 d post-irradiation, mice in the three irradiation groups exhibited an upward trend in the Nrf2 and HO-1 protein levels and a downward trend in the Keap1 protein level compared to those in the SHAM group. Notably, statistical significance was observed between the F215 group and the two conventional dose rate groups ( t = 4.89-20.95, P < 0.05). These result were consistent with the prior changes in antioxidant markers. Conclusions:Ultra-high-dose-rate X-ray irradiation reduces acute RIII by alleviating oxidative stress and modulating the expression of the Keap1-Nrf2-HO-1 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical characteristics of drug-induced liver injury （DILI） induced by glucagon- like peptide-1 receptor agonists （GLP-1RAs）， and to provide a reference for safe clinical medication. METHODS Using search terms such as “GLP-1”“GLP-1RAs”“semaglutide” “drug-induced liver injury”， relevant studies from PubMed， Embase， the Cochrane Library， CNKI， Wanfang Data and VIP were retrieved. Descriptive analysis was performed on cases of DILI induced by GLP-1RAs. RESULTS A total of 11 studies， comprising 11 patients， were included. Among them， 4 were male （36.4%） and 7 were female （63.6%）. Patient ages ranged from 17 to 64 years； 5 patients （45.5%） were between 50 and 65 years old. Six patients were treated for diabetes， and five for weight loss. Ten patients had underlying diseases. The shortest time to the onset of DILI was 5 days after medication， while the longest was approximately 180 days. The DILIs induced by GLP-1RAs were mainly hepatocellular injury type （6 cases）； severity levels included severe （3 cases）， moderate （6 cases）， and mild （2 cases）. Gastrointestinal symptoms and jaundice were the most common clinical manifestations. The association between DILI and GLP- 1RAs was assessed as “probable” in 10 cases and “possible” in 1 case. All 11 patients improved after drug discontinuation and （or） corresponding treatment. CONCLUSIONS DILI induced by GLP-1RAs is relatively concentrated in patients aged 50-65， with a higher incidence in females. The risk may be further increased in patients with underlying diseases. Clinical use of these agents should enhance pharmaceutical care， including identification of high-risk populations and patient education （especially symptom recognition）. When relevant symptoms appear， the drug should be discontinued immediately， with liver-protective therapy initiated when necessary， to ensure patient safety of drug use.

Objective Exploring the effect of Bian-stone-based herbal heat therapy on herbal heat ironing in gastrointestinal reactions during the preconditioning period of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients.Methods Convenience sampling method was used to select 68 cases of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients who attended the hematology department of a tertiary-level Chinese medicine hospital in Hangzhou from October 2023 to April 2024 as the study subjects,and the SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used to generate a random number for grouping into an experimental and a control group,with 34 cases in each group.On the basis of intravenous antiemetic medication and routine,the experimental group implemented the Bian-stone-based herbal heat therapy on the basis of intravenous antiemetic medication and conventional nursing care.In the control group,intravenous antiemetic drugs and routine care were used,and the intervention duration of both groups was 14 d,of which 7 d was a course of treatment,with a total of 2 courses of treatment.The incidence of gastroin-testinal reactions,Gastrointestinal Symptom Rating Scale(GSRS)score,Pepsin Ⅰ(PG Ⅰ),Pepsin Ⅱ(PG Ⅱ),and the ratio of PG Ⅰ to PG Ⅱ(PGR)before and after the intervention were compared between the 2 groups.Results The final sample of 66 cases was collected in this study,and 1 patient was dislodged from each of the control group and the experimental group.The comparison of the incidence of gastrointestinal reactions between the 2 groups within 14 days showed that the incidences of nausea,vomiting,abdominal distension,and diarrhea were lower in the experimental group than those in the control group(P＜0.05).GSRS scores on days 1,8,and 14 of intervention were compared,and there were effects between groups in both groups(F=5.338,P=0.017).The levels of PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅱ in the experimental group on day 8 of the intervention were lower than those in the control group.The levels of PGR was higher than that in the control group(all P＜0.05).The safety of the 2 groups after treatment was evaluated,and the results showed that no serious adverse events occurred in the 2 groups.Conclusion Bian-stone-based herbal heat therapy can improve gastrointestinal reactions and reduce the incidence of gastrointestinal reactions during the preconditioning period of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation patients,which provides clinical guidance for the application of Bian-stone-based herbal heat therapy by nursing staff in the future.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology, primarily involving the colon and rectum. Characterized by recurrent episodes and prolonged disease course, UC requires dynamic monitoring and evaluation. Current commonly used methods for disease monitoring and assessment include C-reactive protein (CRP), fecal calprotectin (FC), and colonoscopy. However, CRP lacks specificity, FC fails to effectively differentiate UC from Crohn's disease, while colonoscopy involves complex bowel preparation, is invasive, and suffers from poor patient compliance. Therefore, there is an urgent clinical need to identify non-invasive biological markers with high sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis and evaluation of UC. Recent studies have demonstrated that anti-integrin αvβ6 autoantibodies hold significant value in the diagnosis, differential diagnosis, and disease assessment of UC, potentially emerging as an important clinical biomarker. This article reviews the research progress of anti-integrin αvβ6 autoantibodies in UC for reference.
