OBJECTIVE To investigate the antidepressant mechanism of Shugan hewei tang （SGHWT） based on the metabolomics of prefrontal cortex （PFC）-nucleus accumbens （NAc）-ventral tegmental area （VTA） neural circuit. METHODS Male SD rats were randomly divided into blank group， model group， SGHWT low-， medium- and high-dose groups [3.67， 7.34， 14.68 g/（kg·d）， by raw material]， and fluoxetine group [1.58 mg/（kg·d）， positive control]， with 12 rats in each group. Except for the blank group， the depression model was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress combined with individual cage housing in the remaining groups， and the corresponding drug solution or normal saline was administered via gavage during modeling， once a day， for 6 consecutive weeks. After the last administration， the body weight， sucrose preference rate， total moving distance， frequency into the center and immobility time of rats in each group were detected. Samples of PFC， NAc and VTA areas of rats in the blank group， model group， SGHWT medium-dose group and fluoxetine positive control groups were collected，and their histomorphological features were observed， and non-targeted metabolomics analysis （except for fluoxetine group）were performed and validated. RESULTS Compared with model group， the cytolysis， structural damage and other pathological damages in three brain regions of rats were significantly alleviated in each drug group， while their body weight， sucrose preference rate， total moving distance and frequency into the center were all significantly higher or longer （P＜0.05）， and immobility time was significantly shorter （P＜0.05）. The results of non-targeted metabolomics showed that a total of 78 endogenous differential metabolites were identified， with 40， 35 and 24 in the PFC， NAc and VTA regions respectively， mainly involved in amino acid， lipid and sphingolipid metabolism. The results of metabolic pathway enrichment analysis showed that SGHWT affected the neural circuits of depressed rats by regulating sphingolipid metabolism， alanine， aspartic acid and glutamic acid metabolism， saturated fatty acid biosynthesis， among which alanine， aspartic acid and glutamic acid metabolism was predominantly involved. Validation experiments showed that SGHWT significantly increased the phosphorylation levels of protein kinase B （Akt） and mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）， and decreased the protein expression of N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptor 1 （NMDAR1） in the NAc region of rats. CONCLUSIONS SGHWT significantly improves the depression-like behavior and attenuates pathological damage of PFC-NAc-VTA neural circuit of model rats， the mechanism of which is associated with inhibiting NMDAR1 expression and activating the Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.

ObjectiveUltra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time of flight tandem mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS） coupled with network pharmacology and molecular docking was utilized to explore the efficacy and mechanism of action of Ermiao Situ decoction on rats with damp-heat eczema. MethodsA rat model of damp-heat eczema was established by artificial climate chamber intervention combined with sensitization induction by dinitrochlorobenzene （DNCB）， and it was randomly divided into the normal group， the model group， the medium- and high-dose groups of Ermiao Situ decoction （3.40 g·kg^-1 and 6.80 g·kg^-1）， and the prednisone acetate group （2.51 mg·kg^-1）， with eight rats in each group， totalling 46 rats， of which six rats were tested with the drug-containing serum. The chemical analysis of drug-containing serum from rats was carried out by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS， combined with network pharmacology for the prediction of key components， core targets， and signaling pathways， and molecular docking experiments were performed by CB-Dock2 online website. The pharmacological effects of Ermiao Situ decoction in the treatment of damp-heat eczema were investigated by epitaxial indexes combined with the pathologic tissue staining method. The serum levels of gastrin （GAS）， interleukin-4 （IL-4）， and interleukin-13 （IL-13） were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Interleukin-6 （IL-6）， Janus kinase 1 （JAK1）， phosphorylated （p）-JAK1， signal transduction and activation of transcription factor 3 （STAT3）， and p-STAT3 protein expression level was determined by Western bolt. ResultsA total of 19 active ingredients were detected in drug-containing serum samples of rats， which were predicted to act on 198 targets for the treatment of damp-heat eczema， among which the key ingredients included rhodopsin， huangpai alkaloids， and quercetin， and the main core targets included STAT3， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）， and IL-6， which were mainly involved in the cancer signaling pathway， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase （Akt） signaling pathway， T helper 17 （Th17） cell differentiation signaling pathway， and JAK/STAT signaling pathway. The molecular docking results suggested that the key components had strong binding activities with the core targets IL-6， JAK1， and STAT3 in the JAK/STAT signaling pathway. The results of animal experiments showed that compared with those in the normal group， rats in the model group were depressed. They had loose hair， loose stools， epidermal oozing， vesiculation， and generation of thick scabs in the form of scales， decreased body weight， increased anus temperature and water intake， and increased indexes of the spleen， thymus gland， and stomach （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the lesion tissue could be seen to be hyperkeratotic， with the aggregation of inflammatory cells and nonsignificant separation of epidermis and dermis. The gastric mucosa was thinned， deficient， and structurally disorganized， and obvious inflammatory cell aggregation was seen. The levels of GAS， IL-4， and IL-13 in serum were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the protein expression levels of IL-6， JAK1， p-JAK1， and p-STAT3 in the lesion tissue were significantly increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， rats in each administration group had stable mental states， formed feces， a clean perianal area， and basically normal epidermis. Only a small amount of scaly scabs existed， and the rats had body weight increased， with decreased anal temperature and water intake， as well as decreased spleen， thymus， and gastric indexes （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Epidermal thickness was decreased， and epidermal and dermal separation boundaries were obvious， but hyperkeratotic and accumulation of inflammatory cells could still be seen. The thickness of gastric mucosa increased， and the structure was restored to varying degrees. The levels of GAS， IL-4， and IL-13 content in the serum of rats were increased to varying degrees， and the protein expression levels of IL-6， JAK1， p-JAK1， and p-STAT3 in the dermal lesion tissue were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionErmiao Situ decoction may exert therapeutic effects on rats with damp-heat eczema by modulating the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo characterize the seasonal patterns of influenza in Kunming City, Yunnan Province before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic, and provide scientific evidence for optimizing influenza prevention and control strategies. MethodsInfluenza-like illness (ILI) and etiological surveillance data for influenza from the 14^th week of 2010 to the 13^th week of 2024 in Kunming City of Yunnan Province were collected. Harmonic regression models were constructed to analyze the epidemic characteristics and seasonal patterns of influenza before (2010/2011‒2019/2020 influenza seasons), during (2020/2021‒2022/2023 influenza seasons), and after (2023/2024 influenza season) the COVID-19 pandemic. ResultsBefore the COVID-19 pandemic, influenza in Kunming City mainly exhibited an annual cyclic pattern without a significant semi-annual periodicity, peaking from December to February of the next year, with an epidemic duration of 20‒30 weeks. During the pandemic, influenza seasonality shifted, with an increase in semi-annual periodicity and an approximate one month delay in annual peaks. However, after the pandemic, the annual amplitude of influenza increased compared with that before the pandemic, and the epidemic duration extended by about one month. Although the annual peak largely reverted to the pre-pandemic levels, the annual peaks for different influenza subtypes/lineages had not fully recovered. ConclusionInfluenza seasonality in Kunming City underwent substantial alterations following the COVID-19 pandemic and has not yet fully reverted to pre-pandemic levels. Continuous surveillance on different subtypes/lineages of influenza viruses remains essential, and prevention and control strategies should be adjusted and optimized in a timely manner based on current epidemic trends.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To explore the risk factors affecting the survival and efficacy of patients with acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplasia-related changes(AML-MRC)transformed from myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS).Methods:The clinical data of 60 patients with AML-MRC transformed from MDS who hospitalized in The Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2010 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The demographic data and laboratory parameters,cytogenetic karyotypes,target genes of AML detected by next generation sequence,risk stratification,treatment regimen,therapeutic efficacy and survival outcome were documented.Rank sum test and Chi-square test or Fisher exact test were used to compare the survival and efficacy.The effects of clinical parameters,risk stratification and treatment regimens on the survival and efficacy of the AML-MRC patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analysis.Results:The median overall survival(OS)of the AML-MRC patients was 4.5 months,the 1-year OS rate was 28.3％,and the complete remission(CR)rate after treatment was 33.3％.The univariate analysis showed that age≥60 years,leukocytosis,severe thrombocytopenia,poor-risk group and only accepted hypomethylating agents(HMAs)or supportive therapy were the risk factors affecting OS.COX multivariate analysis showed that thrombocytopenia(HR=4.46),HMAs therapy(compared to transplantation,HR=10.47),supportive therapy(compared to transplantation,HR=25.80)and poor-risk group(compared to medium-risk group,HR=13.86)were independent hazard factors for median OS of patients with AML-MRC.The univariate analysis showed that the risk factors affecting 1-year OS in patients with AML-MRC were age ≥ 60 years,thrombocytopenia,time of transformation from MDS to AML(TTA)≥3 months,fibrinogen-albumin ratio index(FARI)≥ 0.07,CONUT score≥5,poor-risk group and supportive therapy.Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors for 1-year OS in AML-MRC patients were age ≥ 60 years(HR=11.23),thrombocytopenia(HR=8.71),FARI ≥ 0.07(HR=5.19)and poor-risk group(HR=14.00).The risk factors affecting CR of AML-MRC patients in univariate analysis were age ≥ 60 years,thrombocytopenia,FARI ≥ 0.1,CONUT score ≥ 5,poor-risk group and supportive therapy,while binary logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥ 60 years(HR=7.35),CONUT score ≥ 5(HR=9.60),thrombocytopenia(HR=12.05)and poor-risk group(HR=32.5)were independent risk factors affecting CR of the patients.Conclusion:The OS of AML-MRC patients is poor,old age(≥ 60 years old),supportive therapy,HMA therapy,poor-risk,thrombocytopenia,FARI ≥ 0.07 and CONUT score ≥ 5 may be associated with poor prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of small nucleolar RNA(snoRNA)SNORA63 in bone marrow of patients with acute leukemia(AL)and its significance in the clinical diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of AL patients.Methods:Bone marrow samples of 53 newly diagnosed AL patients and 29 healthy subjects in the Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Medical University from March 2018 to December 2021 were collected.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the relative expression level of SNORA63 in bone marrow mononuclear cells of the two groups.The median expression level of SNORA63 in AL patients was used as the boundary value to divide the patients into SNORA63 high and low expression groups,and the relationship between the expression level of SNORA63 and the clinical characteristics,clinical indicators and prognosis of AL patients was analyzed and discussed.Results:The relative expression level of SNORA63 in AL patients was significantly lower than that in healthy control group[0.3018(0.0244-1.2792)vs 1.0882(0.2797-1.9889)](P＜0.01).The expression level of SNORA63 in AL patients without remission after initial treatment was significantly lower than that in healthy controls and the patients who received complete remission(CR)(P＜0.01),while there was no statistical difference in the expression level of SNORA63 between AML and ALL groups(P＞0.05).The abnormal low expression of SNORA63 was closely related to fever,hemorrage,poor prognosis,efficacy,platelets(PLT),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),albumin(ALB),and molecular biological abnormalities of AL patients(P＜0.05),but not significantly correlated with sex,age,AL subtype,pallor,fatigue,extramedullary infiltration,white blood cell count(WBC),hemoglobin(HGB),C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),fibrinogen(FIB)or chromosome karyotype(P＞0.05).Meanwhile,overall survival(OS)and event-free survival(EFS)of AL patients in SNORA63 high-expression group were significantly higher than those in SNORA63 low-expression group(P＜0.05).Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that SNORA63,molecular biological abnormalities,fever,PLT and LDH were the factors influencing OS and EFS in AL patients(P＜0.05).Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that fever,molecular biological abnormalities and LDH were independent factors associated with OS and EFS in AL patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:SNORA63 is significantly down-expressed in AL patients,which is a molecular marker of great clinical value for disease monitoring and prognosis evaluation in AL patients.

Objective:To explore and analyze the clinical features and prognostic factors of secondary intestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(SI-DLBCL),in order to provide reference for the basic research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of secondary lymphoma of rare sites in the field of hematology.Methods:The clinical data of 138 patients with SI-DLBCL admitted to Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from June 2011 to June 2022 were collected and sorted,the clinical and pathological features,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis were analyzed.Cox regression risk model was used to conduct univariate and multivariate analysis on the prognostic risk factors.Results:Among the 138 patients with SI-DLBCL included in this study,85(61.59％)were male,53(38.41％)were female,the median age of onset was 59.5(16-84)years,the clinical manifestations lacked specificity,the first-line treatment regimen was mainly chemotherapy(67.39％),94 cases(68.12％)received chemotherapy alone,40 cases(28.98％)were treated with chemotherapy combined with surgery,and 4 cases(2.90％)were treated with surgery alone.The median follow-up time was 72(1-148)months.Among the 138 patients with SI-DLBCL,79(57.25％)survived,34(24.64％)died,25 cases(18.12％)lost to follow-up,the PFS rates of 1-year,3-year and 5-year were 57.97％,49.28％and 32.61％,and the OS rates of 1-year,3-year and 5-year were 60.14％,54.35％and 34.06％,respectively.The results of univariate Cox regression analysis showed that age,Lugano stage and IPI score were the influencing factors of OS in SI-DLBCL patients,and age,Lugano stage and IPI score were the influencing factors of PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.The results of multivariate Cox analysis showed that Lugano stage was an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.Conclusion:Patients with SI-DLBCL are more common in middle-aged and elderly men,and the early clinical manifestations lack specificity,and the first-line treatment regimen is mainly R-CHOP chemotherapy,and Lugano stage is an independent prognostic factor affecting OS and PFS in SI-DLBCL patients.

Objective:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of hesperidin combined with enriched environment on ferroptosis in collagenase-induced intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) mouse model as well as the ferroptosis mechanism.Methods:ICH model was established by injecting collagenase Ⅶ into caudate putamen nucleus. Ninty C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into 6 groups according to a random number table: sham group, intracerebral hemorrhage group, enriched environment group, hesperidin group, enriched environment and hesperidin group (combination group), and combination group + Nrf2 specific inhibitor ML385 (inhibitor group), with 15 mice in each group. The mice in inhibitor group, intracerebral hemorrhage group, enriched environment group, hesperidin group and combination group were injected with 0.5 μL collagenase type Ⅶ solution (0.075 U/μL, dissolved with 0.9% NaCl solutin) for ICH modeling, and the mice in sham group were injected with 0.9% normal saline. The hesperidin group, combination group, and inhibitor group were given hesperidin solution (dissolved in 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium) by gavage within 6 hours after the modeling surgery. The sham group, intracerebral hemorrhage group, and enriched environment group were given equal volumes of 0.5% carboxymethyl cellulose sodium solution by gavage. The inhibitor group was intraperitoneally injected with Nrf2 specific inhibitor ML385 (30 mg/kg, dissolved in 5% DMSO), while the other groups were intraperitoneally injected with an equal volume of 5% DMSO. Both gastric perfusion and intraperitoneal injection were completed within 6 hours after the end of modeling operation, once a day for 14 days. After the postoperative recovery of the mice, the enriched environment group, combination group, and inhibitor group were placed in enriched environment cages, while the sham group, intracerebral hemorrhage group, and hesperidin group were placed in regular cages. After all intervention were completed, all mice were evaluated using the modified neurological severity score (mNSS). Then the mice were subjected to brain water content detection, Prussian blue staining, ELISA detection of changes in malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), reactive oxygen species (ROS), glutathione peroxidase 4 (Gpx4), PCR and Western blot detection of nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) and Gpx4 at the mRNA level and protein level. The GraphPad Prism 9 software was used for statistical analysis. ANOVA was used for multi-group comparison, and Tukey test was used for multiple comparisons.Results:(1) There was a statistically significant difference in mNSS scores among the 6 groups ( F=66.35, P<0.001). The mNSS score of the intracerebral hemorrhage group(8.00±1.46) was higher than that of the sham group(0.86±0.83)( P<0.05). The mNSS scores of the enriched environment group (6.47±1.13) and hesperidin group (6.13±1.25) were lower than that of the intracerebral hemorrhage group, but higher than that of the combination group (4.53±1.30)(all P<0.05). (2) There was a statistically significant difference in the percentage of brain water content among the 6 groups ( F=33.29, P<0.001). The percentage of brain water content in the intracerebral hemorrhage group was higher than that in the sham group.The percentage of brain water content in the enriched environment group and hesperidin group were lower than that in the intracerebral hemorrhage group, but higher than that in the combination group (all P<0.05). (3) The result of Prussian blue staining showed that iron deposition in the intracerebral hemorrhage group was higher than that in the sham group, while the iron depositions in the enriched environment group and hesperidin groups were lower than that in the intracerebral hemorrhage group, but higher than that in the combination group(all P<0.05). (4) There were statistically significant differences in the expression levels of Nrf2 and Gpx4 mRNA and protein among the 6 groups ( F=27.73, 31.24, 26.79, 13.79, all P<0.001). The mRNA and protein levels of Nrf2 and Gpx4 in the combination group were higher than those in the enriched environment group, hesperidin group, but higher than those in the inhibitor group(all P<0.05). (5) The results of ELISA showed that the levels of MDA, Gpx4, ROS, and SOD in the brain tissues of 6 groups were statistically significant ( F=111.20, 21.53, 29.45, 22.75, all P<0.001). Among them, the MDA and ROS in the combination group ((14.05±0.57) nmol/mL, (75.46±3.40) ng/mL) were lower than those in the enriched environment group ((18.17±2.51) nmol/mL, (97.23±3.43) ng/mL), hesperidin group ((17.24±0.68) nmol/mL, (90.02±9.46) ng/mL) and the inhibitor group ((17.08±0.64) nmol/mL, (101.07±3.38) ng/mL), while Gpx4 and SOD ((340.40±31.21) pg/mL, (62.55±2.81) ng/mL) were higher than those in the enriched environment group ((267.81±27.17) pg/mL, (50.47±8.38) ng/mL), hesperidin group ((271.55±34.36) pg/mL, (50.55±8.19) ng/mL) and the inhibitor group ((235.65±72.54)pg/mL, (52.67±3.56)ng/mL)(all P<0.05). Conclusion:Enriched environment and hesperidin can inhibit ferroptosis after ICH by activating the Nrf2/GPX4 pathway, exerting neuroprotective effects on ICH mouse models, and the combined treatment of the enriched environment and hesperidin has a more significant effect.
