OBJECTIVE To assess the bleeding risk signals associated with the concomitant use of direct oral anticoagulants （DOACs） and triazole antifungals， and to provide pharmacovigilance evidence for the safety evaluation and monitoring of combined clinical use. METHODS Adverse event reports involving the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals were extracted from the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System （FAERS） from the first quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2025. Nine bleeding-related preferred terms （PTs） were selected. The Ω shrinkage measure， additive model， multiplicative model， and combined risk ratio method were employed to detect drug-drug interaction signals. The strength of positive signals was further analyzed based on the Ω shrinkage measure. RESULTS A total of 790 adverse event reports involving the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals were included， among which 229 reports involved nine bleeding-related PTs. A total of 13 signals were consistently identified as posit ive by all four methods. These signals involved six drug combinations： apixaban-fluconazole， apixaban-posaconazole， rivaroxaban-itraconazole， dabigatran etexilate-fluconazole， apixaban-voriconazole， and dabigatran etexilate-itraconazole. The Ω shrinkage measure showed that the apixaban-posaconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for bleeding （ Ω ＝2.73， Ω 025 ＝2.05） and hemoptysis （ Ω ＝2.17， Ω 025 ＝0.83）； the apixaban-fluconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for hematoma （ Ω ＝2.30， Ω 025 ＝1.47） and hematuria （ Ω ＝1.71， Ω 025 ＝0.74）； the rivaroxaban-itraconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for epistaxis （ Ω ＝2.01， Ω 025 ＝0.90） and hematoma （ Ω ＝1.93， Ω 025 ＝0.42）； no positive Ω signals were observed for intracranial hemorrhage or upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. CONCLUSION S This study suggests that the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals may increase the risk of bleeding-related events， with differences in signal strength and signal distribution across various drug combinations. In clinical practice， particular attention should be paid to the concomitant use of apixaban or rivaroxaban with strong cytochrome P450 3A4 or P-glycoprotein inhibitors such as posaconazole and itraconazole. For other DOAC-triazole antifungal combinations， close monitoring for bleeding-related manifestations and timely adjustment of anticoagulation or antifungal regimens are also warranted.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

BACKGROUND:Deep muscle stimulation has the effects of releasing muscle adhesion,relieving muscle spasm,improving and restoring muscle compliance and elasticity.Electromyographic biofeedback therapy can promote nerve recovery and improve lower limb motor function and gait. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of the effect of deep muscle stimulation combined with electromyographic biofeedback therapy on the spasm of the triceps surae and gait changes after stroke by using a digital muscle detector and three-dimensional gait analysis system. METHODS:A total of 72 patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected from the Rehabilitation Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University from October 2020 to October 2023.And they were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups(n=36 per group):a control group and a combined group.The control group received routine rehabilitation therapies,electromyographic biofeedback and pseudo deep muscle stimulation,while the combined group received true deep muscle stimulation treatment on the basis of the control group,five times per week,for 4 consecutive weeks.The oscillation frequency and dynamic stiffness of the affected gastrocnemius muscle,active range of motion of the ankle dorsiflexion muscle,electromyographic signal of the tibialis anterior muscle,Fugl-Meyer assessment of the lower limbs,and three-dimensional gait analysis parameters were statistically analyzed before and after treatment in two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After treatment,oscillation frequency and dynamic stiffness values of the inner and outer sides of the affected gastrocnemius muscle in both groups of patients were significantly reduced compared with before treatment(P<0.05),and the combined group showed a more significant decrease compared with the control group(P<0.05).The active range of motion of the ankle dorsiflexion muscle,electromyographic signal of the tibialis anterior muscle,and Fugl-Meyer scores after treatment were significantly increased or improved compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the combined group showed a more significant increase or improvement compared with the control group(P<0.05).In terms of gait parameters,the walking speed,frequency,and stride in both groups of patients were significantly increased compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the combined group showed a more significant increase compared with the control group(P<0.05).The percentage time of support phase on the healthy side was shortened compared with before treatment(P<0.05),while the combined group showed a more significant decrease compared with the control group(P<0.05).In addition,there was no significant difference between the two groups except for the percentage of healthy side support(P>0.05).To conclude,the combination of deep muscle stimulation and electromyographic biofeedback can effectively alleviate triceps spasm in the short term after stroke,improve ankle dorsiflexion function,enhance lower limb motor function,and improve gait.The treatment effect is significant and worthy of clinical promotion and application.

AIM:To investigate the mechanism of action of Tamarix chinensis Lour.on streptozotocin-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)through network pharmacology,molecular docking and ex-perimental validation.METHODS:Using the TCSMP database and Swiss Target Prediction tools screen the active components and predict potential tar-gets in Tamarix chinensis Lour..Retrieving potential disease targets associated with T2DM from data-bases such as GeneCards,OMIM,and DisGeNET.The intersection targets of Tamarix chinensis Lour.and T2DM disease was obtained through Venny platform.The STRING database was used to con-structed PPI network,and Cytoscape 3.8.0 soft-ware was use to visualized.GO function enrich-ment and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed through the Metascape database.Dock-ing of important target proteins and compounds was carried out by AutoDock software.SPF grade male rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,MET group(88.5 mg/kg),TE high-dose(800 mg/kg)group,TE medium-dose(400 mg/kg)group and TE low-dose(200 mg/kg)group(n=10).High-fat and high sugar feed com-bined with low dose STZ(45 mg/kg)was used to in-duce T2DM rat model,and the rats were adminis-tered orally for 5 weeks.Fasting blood glucose(FBG),insulin(FINS)level and HOMA-IR index,bio-chemical indicators[superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),glycosylated hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)and inflammatory factor[interleukin-1β(IL-1β),tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),vascu-lar cell adhesion molecular(VCAM-1)levels of the rats were also observed;morphological changes of renal tissue was observe by HE staining.RESULTS:Based on the screening conditions of oral bioavail-ability(OB)≥ 30％and drug like properties(DL)≥0.18,a total of 19 main active ingredients with po-tential therapeutic effects on T2DM were screened from Tamarix chinensis Lour.,including ergosta-5,24(28)-dien-3,7,16-triol,quercetin-3,3'-dimethyl ether,kaempferol,quercetin,and others.By analyz-ing the potential targets of Tamarix chinensis Lour.for treating T2DM,a total of 185 potential target genes were screened,including SRC,EGFR,HSP90AA1,AKT1,ESR1,H1F1A,TNF,PIK3R1,etc,in-volving cancer signaling pathways,insulin resis-tance,MAPK signaling pathways,PI3K Akt signaling pathways,etc.Molecular docking results showed that the binding energies were all less than-5.0 kcal/mol,indicating that a strong binding abili-ty between the active ingredients screened by Tam-arix chinensis Lour.and the potential targets for the treatment of T2DM.The animal experiment re-sults showed that compared with the model group,the weight loss of rats in the MET and TE groups was slowed down,and the levels of FBG,FINS,MDA,HbA1c,IL-1β,TNF-α,VCAM-1,HOMA-IR in-dex were reduced,the SOD level was increased,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),Renal tissue cellular morphology also showed notable improvement.Most importantly,all these results demonstrating dose-dependent ef-fects.CONCLUSION:Tamarix chinensis Lour.dis-plays a significant therapeutic effect on T2DM through multi-component,multi-target,and multi-pathway synergistic actions to improve blood glu-cose levels.The findings of this study provide a the-oretical basis for the clinical application of Tamarix chinensis Lour.in the treatment of T2DM.

AIM:To explore suitable methods for the induction and cryopreservation of mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages(BMDMs).METHODS:Mouse fibroblasts(L929 cells)were cultured under varying conditions of temperature,seeding density,and serum concentration.The concentration of macrophage colony-stimulating factor(M-CSF)in the cell supernatant was measured using ELISA to determine the optimal conditions.Mouse bone marrow cells were extracted,and a differential adherence method was employed to pre-culture the bone marrow cells for 4 h,followed by flow cytometry to assess the proportion of resident macrophages.Flow cytometry was utilized to assess the ratio of F4/80 positive cells among the suspended and adherent cells.Induction of BMDMs was conducted using L929 cell supernatant or recombinant M-CSF for 7 d,and flow cytometry was applied to evaluate the proportion of F4/80 and CD11b double-positive cells.The morphologic changes during cell induction were observed under an inverted microscope,and the phagocytic ca-pacity and inflammatory response levels of BMDMs derived from C57BL/6N and C57BL/6J mice were evaluated using neu-tral red and ELISA methods.The cells were immediately cryopreserved after extraction,and then induced after recovery,or cryopreserved after successful induction and recovered.The cell morphology was observed under an inverted micro-scope,cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 method,and phagocytic ability was measured using the neutral red method.RESULTS:The M-CSF concentration in the supernatant from L929 cells cultured at 33℃,10%fetal bovine se-rum(FBS)for 7 d was rich.Following 4 h of pre-culture,the proportion of F4/80 positive cells in adherent cells was sig-nificantly higher than that in suspended cells(P＜0.01).After 7 d of induction with L929 cell supernatant or recombinant M-CSF,the proportions of F4/80+CD11b+cells showed no significant difference(P＞0.05).Compared with the BMDMs derived from C57BL/6J mice,those from C57BL/6N mice exhibited stronger phagocytic capacity(P＜0.01),and released lower levels of TNF-α(P＜0.01)and IL-6(P＜0.05),and higher levels of IL-1β(P＜0.05).Compared with the BMDMs that were induced after recovery from initial cryopreservation,those cryopreserved immediately after extraction and in-duced upon recovery exhibited better macrophage morphology,higher cell viability(P＜0.01),and enhanced phagocytic ability(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION:The supernatant from L929 cells cultured at 33℃,10%FBS for 7 d is rich in M-CSF,successfully inducing bone marrow cells to differentiate into mouse BMDMs.The differential adherence method for pre-culturing can eliminate resident macrophages from the original bone marrow.The phagocytic capacity and inflammato-ry response levels differ between BMDMs derived from the C57BL/6N and C57BL/6J mouse subtypes.Cryopreserving bone marrow cells immediately after extraction and subsequently inducing them upon recovery is a preferable method for BMDM cryopreservation.

Purpose To explore the clinicopathological features,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of mantle cell lymphoma(MCL)with aberrant expression of CD10.Methods 14 cases of MCL with aberrant expression of CD10 were analyzed using hematoxylin-eosin,immunohistochemical stains,in situ hybridization,and fluorescence in situ hy-bridization(FISH)techniques to observe the histological morphology,immunophenotype,and molecular genetic char-acteristics.The relevant literatures were reviewed.Results There were 11 males and 3 females,with a male-to-fe-male ratio of 11∶3.The age ranged from 49 to 80 years,with an average age of 64.4 years and a median age of 64 years.10 cases occurred in lymph nodes,1 case in the nasopharynx,1 case in the right colon,1 case in the right eye-lid,and 1 case in the right testis.According to the Ann Arbor staging system,8 cases were classified as stage Ⅳ and 5 cases as stage Ⅲ,and 1 case with undetermined staging.Histologically,there was diffuse effacement of the normal architecture by tumor cells infiltration.Transparent degenerate small blood vessels and scattered individual epithelial-like tissue cells could be observed in the background.Among them,8 cases(8/14,57.14％)were composed of uni-form small to medium-sized lymphocytes with slightly irregular nuclei,unevenly dispersed chromatin,inconspicuous nucleoli,and scant cytoplasm,along with observable mitotic figures.In 3 cases(3/14,21.43％),the tumor cells were large and markedly pleomorphic,with round or irregular nuclei,prominent nucleoli,frequent mitotic figures,and abundant pale cytoplasm.Tumor cells in 3 cases(3/14,21.43％)were resembling lymphoblasts,characterized by round nuclei,fine chromatin,inconspicuous nucleoli,frequent mitotic figures,and scant cytoplasm.Immunophenotyp-ically,CD21 staining showed residual follicular dendritic meshworks.The tumor cells were diffusely and strongly posi-tive for CD20(14/14),PAX5(7/7),CD5(14/14),Cyclin D1(14/14),SOX11(11/11),and BCL2(13/13),partially positive for BCL6(8/14,57.14％)and MUM1(6/9,66.67％),but negative for CD3(14/14)and CD23(14/14).Among 14 cases,10 cases were diffusely and strongly positive for CD10(10/14,71.43％),and 4 cases were partially positive for CD10(4/14,28.57％).The percentage of Ki67 index ranged from 10％to 90％.All cases were negative for EBER(8/8).FISH analysis was performed in 9 cases,among which 7 cases showed CCND1 gene rearrangement,another 2 cases failed to detect due to insufficient tissue samples.Bone marrow biopsy was performed in 13 cases,revealing involvement in 8 cases(8/13,61.54％)and no involvement in 5 cases(5/13,38.46％).Con-clusion MCL with aberrant expression of CD10 is very rare,which commonly exhibits a diffuse growth pattern and blastoid and pleomorphic variants.It often has a high Ki67 proliferation index and poorer prognosis,and should be dis-tinguished from other subtypes of CD1O-positive B-cell lymphomas.

Aim To investigate the therapeutic effects of corylifol A(CYA)on Lewis lung carcinoma(LLC)cachexia mice and its ameliorating effects on myotube atrophy induced by LLC cell-conditioned medium(LLC CM)in vitro,and to explore the mechanisms.Methods The cancer cachexia was induced by subcu-taneous inoculation of LLC cells to C57BL/6J mice.The effects of CYA(10,20 mg·kg-1·d-1,i.p.)on the cachexia symptoms and survival time of cachexia mice were observed.The effects of 2.5 or 5 μmol·L-1 CYA on myotube atrophy of C2C12 induced by LLC CM were observed.The effects of CYA on its pos-sible target the serine/threonine-protein kinase TAO1(TAOK1)and downstream signaling pathways were detected using Western blot.The influence of TAOK1 knockout on the ameliorating effects of CYA on myo-tube atrophy was observed.Results CYA could sig-nificantly prolong the survival time of tumor-bearing mice and ameliorate the muscle atrophy associated with LLC.The effects of CYA on myotube atrophy are relat-ed to its regulation of TAOK1.The effects of CYA could be reduced by knockout of TAOK1.Conclusions CYA improves the survival of LLC cachexia mice and ameliorates the related skeletal muscle atrophy.The mechanism of CYA is related to its inhibition on TAOK1 and downstream signaling pathways.

Uric acid is the end product of purine metabolism in the human body. In recent years, the role of uric acid in female fertility and assisted reproductive technology (ART) has gained increasing attention. Dysregulation of uric acid metabolism can lead to hyperuricemia (HUA). HUA is not only closely related to metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular diseases but may also adversely affect female fertility by influencing ovarian function and embryos development. In this review, we explored the role of uric acid in female fertility, including its association with female subfertility, infertility, adverse pregnancy outcomes and metabolic syndrome, as well as its potential impact on ART like in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer and intracytoplasmic sperm injection. Further studies are needed to clarify the threshold and clinical intervention value of uric acid levels in women of childbearing age, providing a basis for reproductive health counseling and personalized pregnancy assistance for HUA patients of childbearing age.

Objective To understand the current situation and influencing factors of salary satisfaction of staff in tertiary public hospitals,and provide suggestions for improving the reform of salary system.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted on 816 employees from 7 tertiary public hospitals in Hunan Province,and the basic situation,salary level,salary promotion,salary system and salary distribution were studied.Descriptive analysis and binary logistic regression model were used to analyze the status quo and influencing factors of employee salary satisfaction.Results The overall satisfaction score of the 816 survey respondents'salary was 71.56 points,at a relatively high level.There was a large difference in satisfaction levels among different regions.Salary level and salary increase satisfaction were 69.19 and 70.90 points respectively,and satisfaction was low.Region,affiliation with a university,cadre status,and title were the main factors affecting salary satisfaction.Conclusion The salary satisfaction of staff in tertiary public hospitals was generally higher in Hunan Province,and the reform had shown positive results.The satisfaction with salary increases and salary levels was relatively low,and it was suggested that the government reasonably determine the salary level of public hospitals and establish a scientific and reasonable salary increase mechanism.It will improve supporting reforms and promote equal pay for equal work.
