Parkinson's disease （PD） is a common neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor impairments， with its pathological mechanisms involving multiple processes such as the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons and the abnormal aggregation of α-synuclein. Current Western medical treatments face challenges including diminished long-term efficacy and motor complications. In recent years， Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） has demonstrated advantages in the prevention and treatment of PD through its systematic regulatory capabilities， featuring multi-component， multi-target， and multi-pathway approaches.This article systematically reviews the roles of seven key signaling pathways-NF-κB， AMPK/mTOR， PI3K/Akt， MAPKs， Nrf2/ARE， Wnt/β-catenin， and BDNF/TrkB-in the pathological process of PD and the regulatory mechanisms of TCM. Research indicates that active ingredients of Chinese herbs and compound formulations can synergistically modulate these pathways， exerting comprehensive effects in inhibiting neuroinflammation， alleviating oxidative stress， promoting autophagy to clear abnormal proteins， and enhancing neurotrophic support. These signaling pathways form a complex regulatory network through crosstalk among key nodal molecules， constituting an intricate regulatory system in PD pathology. The multi-target intervention characteristics of TCM align well with this network-based regulatory requirement， achieving integrated anti-inflammatory， antioxidant， autophagy-regulating， and neurorestorative effects through synergistic multi-pathway modulation. This article systematically outlines the mechanisms of TCM in the coordinated regulation of multiple pathways， providing a theoretical basis for elucidating the pathological process of PD and the intervention mechanisms of TCM， while also offering new perspectives and directions for modern research on TCM in the prevention and treatment of PD.

Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)is a pathological condition characterized by the aggra-vation of the secondary injury in the brain region previously deprived of blood supply upon the restoration of blood flow.nu-cleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),a pivotal inflammatory complex,plays an inte-gral role in the pathophysiology of CIRI.Its activation can instigate a robust inflammatory cascade,culminating in nerve cell death.In light of these insights,this paper reviews the structural characteristics,signaling transduction pathways,and mechanistic involvement of NLRP3 in CIRI.Additionally,the drug intervention strategies targeting inflammatory cor-puscles are discussed,with the aim of providing reference materials for the prevention and treatment of CIRI by traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of high-dose tigecycline(TGC)and polymyxin B(PMB)in the treatment of pulmonary infection due to carbapenem-resistant organism(CRO).Methods Clinical data of pa-tients with CRO pulmonary infection and received PMB or high-dose TGC combined with other antimicrobial treat-ment regimens in Department of Critical Care Medicine of Xiangya Hospital,Central South University from January 2019 to March 2022 were analyzed retrospectively,including basic information,pathogen detection results,antimi-crobial use regimen,clinical efficacy,30-day mortality,bacterial clearance rate,etc.Results A total of 173 pa-tients were included in analysis,with 103 in the TGC group and 70 in the PMB group.Compared with TGC group,PMB group had a higher score of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)(25.0 vs 20.0,P＜0.001),but clinical efficacy rates were not statistically different(67.1％vs 52.4％,P=0.054).Stratified analysis revealed that when the APACHE Ⅱ score was ≥15 points,compared with TGC group(n=78),PMB group(n=66)had a higher APACHE Ⅱ score(27.0 vs 22.0,P=0.005)and a higher clinical efficacy rate(66.7％vs 47.4％,P=0.020).After adjusting confounding factors through logistic regression analysis,it was found that PMB treatment was a protective factor for clinical efficacy rate compared with TGC treatment.Conclusion For treating pulmonary infection caused by CRO in patients,PMB-based treatment regimen has a significant protec-tive effect on the clinical efficacy rate compared with the high-dose TGC-based treatment regimen.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the osteogenic efficacy of three-dimensional printing individualized titanium mesh (3D-PITM) as a scaffold material in guided bone regeneration (GBR). METHODS: 1) Patients undergoing GBR for alveolar bone defects were enrolled as study subjects, and postoperative healing complications were recorded. 2) Postoperative cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans acquired at least 6 months post-surgery were used to calculate the percentage of actual bone formation volume. 3) Alveolar bone specimens were collected during the first-stage implant surgery for histomorphometric analysis. This analysis quantitatively measured the proportions of newly formed bone and newly formed unmineralized bone within the specimens. Specimens were categorized into three groups based on healing complications (good healing group, wound dehiscence group, 3D-PITM exposure group) to compare differences in the proportions of newly formed bone and newly formed unmineralized bone. RESULTS: 1) Twelve patients were included. Guided bone regeneration failed in one patient, and 3D-PITM exposure occurred in three patients (exposure rate: 25%). 2) The mean percentage of actual bone formation volume in the 11 successful guided bone regeneration cases was 95.23%±28.85%. 3) Histomorphometric analysis revealed that newly formed bone constituted 40.35% of the alveolar bone specimens, with newly formed unmineralized bone accounting for 13.84% of the newly formed bone. Intergroup comparisons showed no statistically significant differences (P>0.05) in the proportions of newly formed bone or newly formed unmineralized bone between the good healing group and the wound dehiscence group or the 3D-PITM exposure group. CONCLUSIONS 3D-PITM enables effective bone augmentation. Radiographic assessment demonstrated favorable bone formation volume, while histological analysis confirmed substantial formation of newly formed mineralized bone within the surgical site.

Objective:To investigate the short-term efficacy of robotic versus laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy.Methods:The propensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 99 patients of right colon cancer who were admitted to Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 2020 to December 2023 were collected. There were 50 males and 49 females, aged 69(range, 26?89)years. Of the 99 patients, 41 patients undergoing robotic-assisted right hemicolectomy were divided into the robotic group, and 58 patients undergoing laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy were divided into the lapa-roscopic group. Patients received robotic-assisted or laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy operated by the same major surgeon. Observation indicators:(1) propensity score matching status and com-parison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) intraoperative and postoperative conditions.Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the nonparametic rank sum test. Propensity score matching was performed using the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method. The caliper value was set as 0.1. Results:(1) Propensity score matching status and comparison of clinical data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 99 patients, 82 patients were successfully matched, with 41 cases in each of the robotic group and the laparoscopic group. After propensity score matching, the elimination of history of abdominal operation confounding bias ensured comparability. (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions. After propensity score matching, the operation time of the robotic group was 215(range, 130?340)minutes, the volume of intraoperative blood loss was 50(range, 10?400)mL, the number of lymph node dissected was 21(range, 5?55), the number of intensive care unit stay was 15, time to postoperative first flatus was 3(range, 1?12)days, time to postoperative first food intake was 4(range, 2?14)days, duration of postoperative hospital stay was 8(range, 5?25)days. The above indicators of the laparoscopic group were 210(range, 140?370)minutes, 50(range, 5?150)mL, 19(range, 5?34),20, 3(range, 0?9)days, 5(range, 2?10)days, 8(range, 6?17)days, respectively. There was no significant difference in the above indicators between patients of the two groups ( Z=?0.94, ?1.87, ?1.32, χ2=1.25, Z=0.13, ?0.83, ?0.65, P>0.05). There was no patient converted to open operation in the robotic group, versus 1 patient converted to open operation in the laparoscopic group, showing no significant difference between patients of the two groups ( P>0.05). There were 6 cases in the robotic group and 4 cases in the laparoscopic group with complications, showing no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=0.46, P>0.05). Both groups of patients achieved R 0 resection and had no readmission 30 days after surgery. The hospital expense was (11.0±1.8)×10 4 yuan of the robotic group, versus (9.0±1.7)×10 4 yuan of the laparoscopic group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( t=?5.27, P<0.05). Conclusion:Robot-assisted right hemicolectomy is non inferior to laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy in safety and efficacy, but with higher hospitalization costs.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of venetoclax and azacitidine combined with GHA (human granulocyte colony stimulating factor, homoharringtonine and low-dose cytarabine) priming regimen in treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. Twenty-three patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (non-acute promyelocytic leukemia) who received treatment with the combination of venetoclax and azacitidine with GHA priming regimen at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from October 2020 to July 2024 were selected, and the treatment efficacy, minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative rate in patients with comprehensive complete remission (cCR) (including complete remission, complete remission with partial hematologic recovery and complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery) and the adverse reactions were analyzed; patients were followed-up, and their overall survival (OS) was analyzed by using Kaplan-Meier method.Results:The median age of the 23 patients was 60 years (range: 21-79 years), including 10 males and 13 females. The cCR rate for 1 course of treatment was 52.2% (12/23), with 4 cases of MRD negative among cCR patients; 5 cases received 2 courses of treatment, with 3 cases achieving cCR, of which 2 cases were MRD negative; 2 cases received 3 courses of treatment, with 1 case achieving complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery. Six patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The patients were followed up until July 31, 2024, and the median follow-up period was 5.3 months (range: 1.1-41.7 months). Ten cases survived, 12 cases died, 1 case was lost to follow-up, and the median OS time of 23 patients was 7.9 months. The 6-month OS rate was 60.2% (95% CI: 42.7%-84.8%), and the 12-month OS rate was 44.6% (95% CI: 26.8%-74.3%). Common adverse reactions during treatment included infection [69.6% (16/23)], nausea [56.5% (13/23)], febrile neutropenia [52.2% (12/23)], bleeding [52.2% (12/23)], vomiting [34.8% (8/23)], and pneumonia [34.8% (8/23)]. Conclusions:The combination of vinaclotide and azacitidine with GHA priming regimen has certain efficacy and good safety in the treatment of relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of Gynostemma pentaphyllum (GP)ethanol extract on motor dysfunction in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease (PD). METHODS: Eighty C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into five groups: control group, model group, levodopa group (positive control group), low-dose GP group, and high-dose GP group, with 16 mice per group. The PD model was induced by injection of 6-hydroxydopamine into the substantia nigra pars reticulata of the mice. Two weeks after 6-hydroxydopamine, positive control group received intraperitoneal injection of levodopa 10 mg·kg^－1·d^－1, while low-dose GP and high-dose GP groups received GP extract 100 or 200 mg·kg^－1·d^－1 orally for three weeks. After a 3-week-treatment, the effects of GP on motor dysfunction in 6-hydroxydopamine-induced PD were assessed using open field and CatWalk gait tests, while the effects on muscle strength were evaluated by forelimb grip strength. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the number of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) positive neurons. The levels of dopamine and serotonin in the midbrain were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In addition, Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family proteins such as p-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2, p-p38 and p-c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK)1/2, and mitochondrial apoptosis pathway proteins such as B-cell lymphoma (Bcl)-2, Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax), and cleaved-cysteine aspartic acid specific protease (caspase)-3. RESULTS: Behavioral experiments showed that GP significantly improved the spontaneous activity and motor coordination of PD mice (P<0.05). The forelimb grip strength was also increased by GP treatment (P<0.05), compared to the PD model group. In addition, compared with the model group, the number of TH-positive neurons in substantia nigra pars reticulata region, the levels of dopamine and serotonin in midbrain and the expression of p-ERK1/2 were significantly increased by GP treatment (all P<0.05), whereas the expression of p-p38 and p-JNK1/2, the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 and cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 were significantly decreased (all P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that GP might increase dopamine and serotonin levels in the midbrain and promote the survival of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra pars reticulata by regulating the expression of phosphorylation of MAPK family proteins and the expression of mitochondrial apoptosis-related proteins, thereby ameliorating motor deficits in PD mice.

The construction of a medical safety system based on the medical core quality and safty systems is the foundation of the hospital. Multi-campus operation coordinated development is key to the high-quality development of public hospitals and the balanced distribution of high-quality medical resources. Building a medical safety system that comfoms to the specialized layout and operation of branch districts is very important the construction of multi-campus hospitals. In January 2023, Xidan Campus of Peking Union Medical College Hospital established a medical safety system that was compatible with its development, based on the construction of the medical core quality and safty system. The system covered four dimensions: early identification, early assessment, early intervention, and fast response. It included high-risk surgical evaluation and filing, early warning of nursing rooms, periodic medical safety rounds, and rapid response teams and cross hospital transportation of critical care rapid response teams. As of June 2024, the hospital had recorded 570 high-risk surgeries with no unplanned secondary surgeries or unplanned readmissions; Reported nursing warnings 68 times, initiated 93 emergency treatments and cross hospital transfers. All emergency patients received early warning assessments and completed graded and classified transfers and management, effectively ensuring patient safety. This practice could provide references for other multi-campus hospitals to promote the construction and development of medical safety systems.
