ObjectiveTo explore the regulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal （HPG） axis by modified Erxian decoction in rats with perimenopausal syndrome （PMS） and to further analyze the expression of proteins related to the silent information regulator 1 （SIRT1）/hypothalamic kisspeptin （Kisspeptin）/gonadotropin-releasing hormone （GnRH） signaling pathway in the arcuate nucleus region （ARC） of the hypothalamus， so as to reveal the potential target of action and molecular biological mechanism of modified Erxian decoction for the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome. MethodsAn animal model was established via the incomplete castration method， with successful modeling confirmed by the exfoliated cervical cell smear method. The 48 rats were divided into six groups based on the randomization principle after successful modeling， including a sham operation group， a model group， an estradiol valerate group （0.09 mg∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， high-， medium-， and low-dose modified Erxian decoction groups （7.614， 3.807，1.903 5 g∙kg^-1∙d^-1）， with 8 rats in each group. The estradiol valerate group and the high-， medium- and low-dose modified Erxian decoction groups were continuously administered by gavage for 28 days， and the indicators were detected 24 hours after the last administration. Body weights and uterine indices were measured. The pathological changes of the uterus were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was performed to measure the levels of estradiol （E₂）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， and gonadotropin-releasing hormone （GnRH）. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to determine the expression levels of SIRT1， Kisspeptin， kisspeptin receptor （GPR54）， and GnRH in the ARC region of the hypothalamus and gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor （GnRH-R） in pituitary. ResultsCompared with the sham operation group， rats in the model group had a significantly increased body weight （P0.01）， reduced wet weight and index of uterus （P0.01）， endometrial thinning or atrophy， glandular atrophy， and a decreasing number of glands. Additionally， serum levels of E₂ and the expression of SIRT1 in the ARC region of the hypothalamus significantly decreased （P0.01）. Serum levels of FSH， LH， and GnRH， the expression of Kisspeptin， GPR54， and GnRH in the ARC region of the hypothalamus， and GnRH-R in pituitary significantly increased （P0.01）. Compared with the model group， the estradiol valerate group and the high-， medium-dose modified Erxian decoction groups had significantly reduced body weight， serum levels of FSH， LH， and GnRH， and expression of Kisspeptin， GPR54， and GnRH in the ARC region of the hypothalamus and GnRH-R in pituitary （P0.05， P0.01） and significantly increased wet weight and index of uterus， serum level of E₂， and expression of SIRT1 in the ARC region of the hypothalamus （P0.05， P0.01）. In addition， they showed thickened endometrium， increased number of endometrial glands， and improved glandular atrophy. ConclusionModified Erxian decoction regulates the function of the HPG axis through multi-targets， and its mechanism of action may be related to the up-regulation of the expression of SIRT1 in the ARC region of the hypothalamus， the inhibition of the over-activation of the Kisspeptin/GnRH signaling pathway， the regulation of the expression of GnRH-R in the pituitary， the restoration of secretion balance of gonadotropins， and the elevation of the estrogen level. This study provides an experimental basis for the interpretation of the scientific connotation of modified Erxian decoction in the treatment of perimenopausal syndrome and a theoretical reference for the development of a novel therapeutic strategy based on the SIRT1/Kisspeptin/GnRH pathway.

ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of feedforward control mode on improving occupational burnout among operating room nurses through theoretical research and clinical practice， with a view to promoting their physical and mental health and enhancing the quality of surgical nursing. MethodsA total of 440 operating room nurses from different regions， scales， and nursing experiences in Shaanxi Province from November 2023 to December 2023 were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group， with 220 nurses in each group. While the control group received routine intervention measures， the experimental group introduced a feedforward control mode based on the control group， with “emotional exhaustion，” “depersonalization，”and“personal achievement” as observation indicators. ResultsThe incidence of occupational burnout in the experimental group was 11.4%， while that in the control group was 20.0%. The experimental group showed a significantly lower incidence than the control group （P=0.013）. ConclusionThe feedforward control mode can significantly alleviate nurses’ sense of job burnout， promote the improvement of surgical nursing quality， as well as continuously improve the scientific rigor， advancement， and humanistic nature of nursing services， which is conducive to building a harmonious and efficient nursing team. The spirit of teamwork， reflected in mutual support， mutual trust， and joint efforts for surgical success and patient health， has become an important component of nurses’ professional ethics.

Objective:To summarize the clinical phenotypes, genotypes, and treatment outcomes of NPRL2-related epilepsy. Methods:This was a case summary.Clinical data of patients with NRPL2 variants admitted to the Department of Pediatrics, Peking University People′s Hospital between October 1, 2013 and October 31, 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Previous reports of patients with the same disease were reviewed. Results:Six cases of NPRL2-related epilepsy were collected, and 37 cases were reported in the previous literatures.The age of onset ranged from 3 days to 18 years with the median age of 24 months.There were 15 patients with onset in infancy.Among the 41 patients diagnosed with epilepsy, 73.1% (30/41) had focal seizures, 34.1% (14/41) had frontal lobe epilepsy, and 17.1% (7/41) had epileptic spasms.Among the patients with known cranial imaging, 58.6% (17/29) had cortical malformations. NPRL2 variants involved 11 nonsense mutations, 10 splice site mutations, 7 frameshift mutations, 1 large fragment deletion, and 14 missense mutations; among them, 39 mutations were pathogenic or likely pathogenic, while the rest 4 mutations had unclear pathogenicity.Among the 27 patients with known outcomes, 11 (40.7%) had no seizures after administration of 1 or 2 types of drugs, and 16 (59.2%) had drug-resistant epilepsy.Among the 16 patients, 1 had no seizures after treatment with 3 types of anti seizure medications, and 7 had no seizures after surgery.Most patients had varying degrees of delay in intellectual and motor development. Conclusions:Patients with NPRL2 variants usually present with frequent focal seizures and epileptic spasms, and the age of onset varies greatly.About half of the patients have drug-resistant epilepsy, half of whom have cortical malformations.For those with drug-resistant epilepsy and abnormal cranial imaging, surgery may be considered.

Objective:To summarize the phenotype and genotype of leukoencephalopathy with calcifications and cysts(LCC).Methods:A case summary.Clinical, imaging, and genetic data of 2 patients with early-onset LCC admitted to the Department of Pediatrics, Peking University People′s Hospital between December 2023 and August 2024 were retrospectively summarized.A review of the literature was also conducted.Results:Case 1: a 19-month-old female infant presented with febrile seizures in infancy and mild developmental delay.Trio whole-exome sequencing (trio-WES) identified compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in the SNORD118 gene: n.92C>T (paternally inherited) and n. 72A>G (maternally inherited). Case 2: an 11-year-and-4-month-old girl had non-specific encephalopathy in the neonatal period, developmental delay with regression, and seizures since early childhood.Trio-WES revealed compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in SNORD118: n.3C>T (paternally inherited) and n. 57G>C (maternally inherited). Both cases showed typical imaging findings of leukoencephalopathy, intracranial calcifications, and cysts.Case 2 has been treated with Bevacizumab for 3 months and remains under follow-up.Combining this 2 cases with previously reported genetically confirmed cases, a total of 97 LCC patients with identified SNORD118 variants were analyzed.The median age of onset was 5 years.Seventy-one cases had childhood onset, including 31 cases with onset at ≤1 year.The inaugural symptoms were: seizures in 40 patients (41.2%), motor disorders in 25 patients (25.8%), developmental delay or cognitive impairment in 19 patients (19.6%) and headaches or increased intracranial pressure in 13 patients (13.4%). Neurological dysfunctions progress during the course.All patients had typical leukoencephalopathy, intracranial calcifications and cysts, with varied imaging progress.A total of 61 variants of SNORD118 were reported and most were compound heterozygous variants.Treatment is primarily symptomatic.Three out of the 4 patients treated with Bevacizumab showed improvement. Conclusions:LCC is a rare autosomal recessive inherited cerebral microangiopathy, characterized by progressive neurological dysfunction and radiological triad of diffuse and asymmetric leukoencephalopathy, intracranial calcifications and cysts.Patients with pathogenic SNORD118 variants should definitely be diagnosed.Symptomatic treatment is the mainstay therapy and Bevacizumab may slow down the progression.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic mechanism of moxibustion in Crohn disease(CD)-associated intestinal fibrosis by observing its effects on the angiotensin-converting enzyme(ACE)/angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ)/angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 receptor(AT1R)axis in CD mouse models.Methods:Six randomly selected male C57BL/6 mice were assigned to a normal group,while the remaining mice were administered 0.1 mL of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid via enema to establish a CD intestinal fibrosis model.After successful modeling,the mice were randomly divided into a model group,a moxibustion group,and a Western medication group,with 6 rats in each group.The normal group and the model group only received grabbing without intervention.In the moxibustion group,mild moxibustion was applied to Qihai(CV6)and bilateral Tianshu(ST25)once a day for 10 min each time over 7 consecutive days.The Western medication group was administered mesalazine suspension via oral gavage once a day for 7 consecutive days.At the end of the intervention,the general condition,disease activity index(DAI)score,and gross colon score of mice in each group were evaluated.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe and score the histological changes in the colon tissue in each group.Masson staining was used to observe colonic fibrosis and the ratio of collagen-positive areas was analyzed;the expression of Ang Ⅱ in the colon tissue was detected by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay;immunohistochemistry and real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression of ACE and AT1R in the colon tissue,respectively;Western blotting was used to detect the expression of transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1 and connective tissue growth factor(CTGF)in the colon tissue.Results:Compared to the normal group,the DAI score,gross colon score,colonic histological score,collagen-positive area ratio,ACE protein and mRNA,Ang Ⅱ protein,AT1R protein and mRNA,TGF-β1 protein,and CTGF protein in the colon tissue in the model group increased significantly(P<0.01).In contrast,the above indicators in both the moxibustion group and the Western medication group reduced significantly compared to the model group(P<0.01 or P<0.05).There was no statistical difference in these indicators between the moxibustion group and the Western medication group(P>0.05).Conclusion:Moxibustion can alleviate intestinal fibrosis in CD mice,and its therapeutic mechanism may be associated with the regulation of colonic ACE/AngⅡ/AT1R axis.
