Objective To explore the mechanism of the modified Erchen Decoction in preventing and treating hyperlipidemia with phlegm-dampness syndrome based on network pharmacology and animal experiment.Methods Active components and potential targets of modified Erchen Decoction were screened using TCMSP database.Hyperlipidemia disease targets were retrieved from GeneCards,DrugBank,DisGeNET,OMIM and TTD databases,and the intersection of drugs and disease targets was taken.A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using STRING database,and GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis on intersecting targets was conducted using DAVID database.Cytoscape 3.9.1 software constructed a component-target-pathway network to analyze key pathways.The molecular docking between main active components and key targets was performed.A rat model of hyperlipidemia with phlegm dampness syndrome was prepared,and was intervened with modified Erchen Decoction.Liver index was calculated,lipid levels were detected,liver tissue morphology was observed by HE staining,and related protein expressions in liver tissue were detected by Western blot.Results Network pharmacology analysis showed that there were 41 targets of modified Erchen Decoction in preventing and treating hyperlipidemia,including HMGCR,SREBF1,FASN,etc.,involved in AMPK signaling pathway,lipid and atherosclerosis,chemical carcinogenesis-receptor activation,etc.The animal experiment results showed that modified Erchen Decoction could effectively regulate the blood lipid levels of model rats,reduce liver fat accumulation,significantly increase p-AMPK protein expression in liver tissue(P<0.05),and reduce HMGCR,SREBP1c and FAS protein expressions(P<0.05).Conclusion Modified Erchen Decoction may inhibit the synthesis and absorption of cholesterol and fatty acids by activating AMPK/SREBP1c signaling pathway,so as to improve hyperlipidemia.

Objective To investigate the significance of CD4 and CD8 T lymphocyte ATP release assays for the assessment of cellular immune function in patients with digestive tract tumors.Methods 51 digestive tract tumor patients from the Department of Oncology and Department of Radiotherapy of the General Hospital of Southern Theater Command of PLA during 2023～2024 as a study group,and 51 healthy medical checkups were collected from the Physical Examination Center of that Hospital during 2018～2020 as a control group,and the counts of leukocytes,lymphocytes,CD4 T lymphocyte,and CD8 T lymphocyte were conducted to detect the release of ATP from CD4,CD8 T lymphocyte before and after the stimulation of PHA Levels of ATP release from CD4 and CD8 T lymphocytes before and after PHA stimulation.Results Lymphocyte counts[1.45(1.12,1.75)×109/L]and CD8 T lymphocyte counts[357.00(232.13,451.35)个/μl]in the research group was lower than in the control group[2.04(1.24,2.27)×109/L,454.36(368.00,566.10)个/μl],and the differences were statistically significant(Z=-4.719,-3.209,all P<0.05).After PHA stimulation,the ATP release level of CD4 T lymphocytes in the research group was lower than that in the control group(Z=-2.181,P＜0.05),and the level of ATP release level of CD8 T lymphocytes in the research group before and after PHA stimulation were lower than those in the control group(Z=-3.314,-3.462,all P<0.05).There was no correlation between CD4 T lymphocyte ATP release values and CD4 T lymphocyte counts in the research group(r=0.617,P=0.093),and there was a positive correlation between CD4 T lymphocyte ATP release values and CD4 T lymphocyte counts in the control group(r=0.276,P=0.049).There was no significant correlation between the ATP release values of CD8 T lymphocytes and lymphatic counts in the research group(r=0.033,P=0.816),and a positive correlation between the ATP release values of CD8 T lymphocytes and lymphatic counts in the control group(r=0.278,P=0.048).Conclusion The CD4 and CD8 T lymphocyte ATP release assay can be used as a method to evaluate the dynamic function of cellular immunity,and in combination with static cell counting can provide a more comprehensive assessment of cellular immunity in patients with gastrointestinal tumors.

Objective To investigate the effects of different contrast injection schemes on the image quality of triple-rule-out com-puted tomography angiography(TRO-CTA).Methods A total of 691 patients with acute chest pain who underwent TRO-CTA exami-nation from multiple centers were prospectively selected and randomly divided into mixed group and unmixed group according to dif-ferent contrast injection methods.The image quality of aorta,pulmonary artery and coronary artery in the two groups was evaluated subjectively and objectively and the radiation dose was calculated.Results There were no significant differences in subjective image quality scores,aorta and coronary CT values,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)between the two groups(P>0.05),while there were significant differences in pulmo-nary CT values,SNR,CNR and radiation dose between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion The utilization of a mixed contrast injection scheme in TRO-CTA can satisfy diagnostic require-ments while ensuring a low proportional dosage and reduced radiation dose,which has clinical application value.

Objective:To explore the intervention effects of the skill training for parents with autism child (STPAC) on toddlers with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).Methods:A multicenter non-randomized concurrent controlled study design was conducted. Thirty children with ASD aged 15-30 months, first diagnosed at the Children′s Hospital of Fudan University, the First Hospital of Jilin University, and Chengdu Women′s and Children′s Central Hospital from 2019 to 2020, were enrolled in the STPAC group. Thirty children with ASD who visited the same hospitals during the same period but refused the STPAC intervention were selected as the control group. The STPAC group received an 8-week intervention (3 h/week) followed by quarterly follow-ups for 1 year, while the control group voluntarily chose community-based routine interventions. The Griffiths development scales-Chinese (GDS-C) was used to assess the developmental levels, and the communication and symbolic behavior scales developmental profile infant-toddler checklist (CSBS-DP-ITC) was completed by the primary caregivers to evaluate social, language and symbolic behavior. The independent samples t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests, etc.was used for inter-group comparison. The paired t-tests or Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, etc. was used for inter-group pre-post intervention comparison. Results:The STPAC group included 30 children (22 males and 8 females, aged (23.9±2.2) months), and the control group included 30 children (20 males and 10 females, aged (24.2±2.6) months). Before the intervention, there were no statistically differences in GDS-C development quotient (DQ) and CSBS-DP-ITC scores between groups (all P>0.05). After 1-year intervention, GDS-C DQ in personal-social, hearing-language, hand-eye coordination, performance domains of STPAC group and GDS-C DQ in personal-social, hearing-language domains of control group were all increased (all P<0.01). After 1-year intervention, CSBS-DP-ITC scores of both groups were all improved in socia, language, symbolic behavior, and total scores (all P<0.001). GDS-C DQ changes before and after 1 year of intervention in hearing-language, hand-eye coordination, performance domains of the STPAC group were all higher the those of control group (34(15, 48 vs. 10(-4, 39), 11±20 vs. -1±19, 23±25 vs. 8±22, all P<0.05). CSBS-DP-ITC scores changes before and after 1 year of intervention in social and total scores of the STPAC group were both higher the those of control group (10(5, 30) vs. 3(1, 7), 26±17 vs. 11±8, both P<0.001). Conclusion:Compared with the community routine interventions, the STPAC better improves the language, hand-eye coordination, visual-spatial, social communication, and play skills in ASD toddlers.

Objective:To analyze the APR triangle formed when the right hepatic vein (RHV) passed through the right anterior hepatic pedicle (RAHP) and the right posterior hepatic pedicle (RPHP) by 3D visualization technique.Methods:Clinical data of 100 subjects undergoing liver contrast-enhanced CT scan in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from September 2019 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 57 males and 43 females, aged (53.2±13.0) years. The CT data were imported into a system for 3D image reconstruction of the liver. The intrahepatic vascular structure was observed, including the portal vein, APR triangle, the angle between the RAHP and RPHP, the distance between RHV and the vertex of angle when it crosses the angle plane of the RAHP and RPHP, the structure and branches of the right posterior branch of portal vein, and the number of branches into the APR triangle from the main trunk of the right anterior and right posterior portal vein.Results:The main type of portal vein was type A (the main portal vein was divided into left and right branches, and the right branch was further divided into right anterior branch and right posterior branch), in 86 cases (86.0%). The APR triangle was observed in 81 cases (81.0%), and the distance between the right hepatic vein and the vertex of the right anterior and right posterior hepatic pedicle was (1.70±0.36) cm, 1.00-2.00 cm was 82.7%(61/81). The angle between right anterior and right posterior hepatic pedicle was 45°-90° in 77 cases (77.0%, 77/100). In 100 subjects, the main branch of the right posterior portal vein accounted for 42.0% (42/100) of typeⅠ (bifurcation type) and 53.0% (arch type) of type Ⅱ (53/100). In 16 cases (19.8%, 16/81), the main right anterior portal vein branched into the APR triangle, with a total of 22 branches. In 9 cases (11.1%, 9/81), the main branch of the right posterior portal vein (branching type) branched into the triangle, with a total of 11 branches. There were 33 cases (40.7%, 33/81) of right posterior portal vein (arch type) main branch branching into the triangle, a total of 41 branches.Conclusion:The APR triangle, composed of the RAHP, RPHP and RHV, has an objective anatomical basis and is affected by the variants of portal vein and RHV. It is more common for the RHV to be within 1.00-2.00 cm of the vertex of the angle between the RAHP and RPHP, and the main trunk of the right anterior and right posterior branches of portal vein are less divided into the triangle, so it is relatively safe to dissect within this area.
