Objective:To investigate effect and mechanism of hydroxysafflor yellow A(HSYA)activating neuronal autophagy on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury through a combination of in vitro and in vivo experiments.Methods:SD rat MCAO/R model was established by improved suture method.Rats were randomly divided into sham surgery(Sham)group,MCAO/R group and MCAO/R+HSYA group,following indicators were detected to determine extent of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion nerve damage:Z-Longa neu-rological function score was detected,TTC staining to measure cerebral infarction area,and TUNEL staining to measure cell apopto-sis;Western blot was used to detect protein expressions of autophagy related markers LC3,Beclin1,P62 and SIRT1 in rat brain tis-sue;immunofluorescence staining was used to observe expression of LC3 co-localization with neurons.OGD/R injury model of SH-SY5Y cells was established and randomly divided into Normal group,OGD/R group,OGD/R+HSYA group,OGD/R+SIRT1 inhibitor(EX-527)group and OGD/R+EX-527+HSYA group.Western blot was used to detect protein expressions of LC3,Beclin1,P62 and SIRT1.Results:Compared with Sham group,model group rats showed impaired neurological function,significantly increased neu-robehavioral scores,widespread cerebral infarction,significantly increased neuronal cell apoptosis,significantly increased autophagy related protein Beclin1 expression and LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ,significantly decreased P62 expression,significantly increased LC3/NeuN co-stained cells,and decreased SIRT1 expression;compared with model group,HSYA intervention group showed a significant decrease in neurological functional scores,a significant reduction in cerebral infarction area,a significant decrease in neuronal cell apoptosis,a further increase in Beclin1 expression and LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ,a further decrease in P62 expression,number of LC3/NeuN and P62/NeuN co-stained cells also increased,and SIRT1 expression significantly increased.Expression trends of Beclin1,LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ,P62 and SIRT1 of cells between normal group,model group and HSYA intervention group were same as animal experiment;compared with model group,expressions of SIRT1,Beclin1 and LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ in OGD/R+EX-527 group were significantly reduced,while expression of P62 was significantly increased;compared with OGD/R+EX-527 group,there was no significant change in SIRT1 expression in OGD/R+EX-527+HSYA group,LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ and Beclin1 expression were significantly increased,and P62 expres-sion was significantly decreased.Conclusion:HSYA can significantly improve neurological deficits in rats after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion,reduce cerebral infarction area,and decrease neuronal cell apoptosis rate,whose neuroprotective effect may be related to its activation of SIRT1,which significantly enhances neuronal autophagy.

OBJECTIVE To construct a Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average(SARIMA)model based on the incidences of hospital-acquired infections(HAIs),and provide a reference for the prevention and control of HAI in such hospitals.METHODS The incidences of HAIs in a tertiary psychiatric hospital from Jan.2016 to Aug.2024 were collected by the Weining Hospital Infection Information Management software and paper-based HAI reporting cards.The incidence rates from 2016 to 2023 were analyzed and a SARIMA model was established.The incidence rates from Jan.to Aug.2024 were predicted,and the accuracy of the SARIMA model was evaluated based on the actual measured values.RESULTS From 2016 to 2023,a total of 98,075 patients were admitted,including 936 patients who developed HAIs,with an incidence rate of 0.95％ranged from 0.79％to 1.23％.The time series plot from 2016 to 2023 did not meet the requirements for sequence stability.After differ-entiating the original data,analyzing the correlation plot(ACF)and partial autocorrelation plot(PACF),and con-ducting multiple assessments and verifications,it was finally determined that SARIMA(1,1,1)(1,1,1)12,SA-RIM A(1,1,1)(1,1,0)12,ARIMA(1,1,1)(0,1,0)12,and SARIMA(1,1,1)(0,1,1)12 were the alterna-tive models.The Ljung-Box Q test was used to retain the models with P＞0.05 that met the sequence with white noise and the minimum Bayesian Information Criterion(BIC)value was obtained,it was determined that SARIMA(1,1,1)(0,1,1)12 was the optimal model.When validated with Jan.to Aug.2024 HAI incidence data,the infection rates predicted by SARIMA(1,1,1)(0,1,1)12 model remained within the 95％confidence interval,indicating high prediction accuracy.CONCLUSION SARIMA model can effectively predict the monthly HAI incidences in a tertiary psychiatric hospital,and it plays an role in the decision-making of HAI prevention and control in psychiatric inpatients.

Objective To explore potential categories of post-stroke depression in acute-phase stroke patients and its correlation with the degree of neurological deficits,and to provide references for healthcare professionals in developing targeted interventions.Methods Using convenience sampling,patients with acute stroke who were hospitalized in neurological ward of 2 tertiary general hospitals in Henan Province from January to April 2024 were selected as the survey participants.The investigation was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire,the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale,and the Patient Health Questionnaire-9.The correlation between potential categories of post-stroke depression and the degree of neurological deficit was analysed using unordered multiclassified logistic regression.Results Post-stroke depression score was 10.22±3.61 in 193 acute-phase stroke patients,and post-stroke depression could be categorized into 3 potential categories,namely"low depressive symptoms"(44.6％),"melancholic depression"(15.0％),and"atypical depression"(40.4％).There was a significant difference in the degree of neurological deficits(H=38.074,P＜0.001).Compared with severe neurological deficits,patients with mild deficits were more likely to be categorized as"melancholic depression"(OR=0.016,P=0.001)and"atypical depression"(OR=0.040,P＜0.001),and patients with moderate deficits were more likely to be classified as"atypical depression"(OR=0.085,P=0.001).Conclusion Post-stroke depression in acute-phase stroke patients has obvious categorization characteristics,and it is recommended that healthcare professionals should pay more attention to patients with different degrees of neurological deficits and adopt targeted interventions according to the different categories of post-stroke depression in order to alleviate their depressive symptoms.

Emotional blunting leads to significant declines in cognitive function and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease, thereby impacting their quality of life and increasing the caregiver burden. Emotional blunting is a progressive condition, and early detection and intervention can slow its progression, making it necessary to assess emotional blunting in patients early. Currently, there are various tools for assessing emotional blunting, but there is a lack of evidence to guide tool selection. This review discusses the impact of emotional blunting on patients with Parkinson's disease and reviews existing assessment tools for emotional blunting, including their content, applications, advantages, and limitations. It also summarizes issues in the application of these tools and offers future directions, aiming to provide a basis for the identification and assessment of emotional blunting in Parkinson's disease patients.

Macroautophagy (referred to as autophagy hereafter) is a major intracellular lysosomal degradation pathway that is responsible for the degradation of misfolded/damaged proteins and organelles. Previous studies showed that autophagy protects against acetaminophen (APAP)-induced injury (AILI) via selective removal of damaged mitochondria and APAP protein adducts. The lysosome is a critical organelle sitting at the end stage of autophagy for autophagic degradation via fusion with autophagosomes. In the present study, we showed that transcription factor EB (TFEB), a master transcription factor for lysosomal biogenesis, was impaired by APAP resulting in decreased lysosomal biogenesis in mouse livers. Genetic loss-of and gain-of function of hepatic TFEB exacerbated or protected against AILI, respectively. Mechanistically, overexpression of TFEB increased clearance of APAP protein adducts and mitochondria biogenesis as well as SQSTM1/p62-dependent non-canonical nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) activation to protect against AILI. We also performed an unbiased cell-based imaging high-throughput chemical screening on TFEB and identified a group of TFEB agonists. Among these agonists, salinomycin, an anticoccidial and antibacterial agent, activated TFEB and protected against AILI in mice. In conclusion, genetic and pharmacological activating TFEB may be a promising approach for protecting against AILI.

Frailty in elderly patients undergoing arthroplasty increases the risk of postoperative complications, prolongs hospital stays, delays the rehabilitation process, and aggravates the economic burden. Frailty is a dynamic condition, and early detection and effective intervention can delay its progression. Therefore, early assessment of frailty status in patients is necessary. Currently, there are numerous frailty assessment tools, but the selection of these tools lacks a solid basis. This paper reviews the impact of frailty on the physical condition of elderly arthroplasty patients, as well as the content, application, advantages, and limitations of existing frailty assessment tools at home and abroad. Furthermore, it summarizes the problems in the process of frailty assessment and puts forward prospects, aiming to provide reference for the identification and assessment of frailty in elderly arthroplasty patients in the future.
