ObjectiveTo preliminarily explore the active components and target pathways of Angelicae Sinensis Radix-Polygonati Rhizoma （ASR-PR） herb pair in the treatment of simple obesity through network pharmacology and molecular docking， and to verify and investigate its mechanism of action via animal experiments. MethodsThe chemical constituents and targets of ASR and PR were predicted using the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP）. Targets related to simple obesity were identified by retrieving the GeneCards， Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）， Pharmacogenomics Knowledgebase （PharmGKB）， and DisGeNET databases. The intersection of drug and disease targets was used to construct an active component-target network using Cytoscape software. This network was imported into the STRING database to construct a protein-protein interaction （PPI） network， and topological analysis was conducted to identify core genes. Gene Ontology （GO） analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis and mapping were performed using the DAVID database and the Microbioinformatics platform. AutoDock 1.5.7 software was used to perform molecular docking between the top five active components and core targets. An animal model of simple obesity was established by feeding C57BL/6J mice a high-fat diet. The mice were administered ASR （2.06 g·kg^-1）， PR （2.06 g·kg^-1）， or ASR-PR （4.11 g·kg^-1） for 10 weeks， while the model group received an equal volume of purified water by gavage. After the administration period， the mice were sacrificed to measure body fat weight and serum levels of total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， high-density lipoprotein （HDL）， and low-density lipoprotein （LDL）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe histopathological sections of liver and adipose tissue. Serum levels of leptin， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， and the mRNA expression levels of epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR） and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） in liver tissue were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR）. ResultsNetwork pharmacology and molecular docking results indicated that the treatment of simple obesity by ASR-PR may involve the regulation of protein expression of core targets EGFR and STAT3 by its main components MOL009760 （Siberian glycoside A_qt）， MOL003889 （methyl protodioscin_qt）， MOL009766 （resveratrol）， MOL006331 （4′，5-dihydroxyflavone）， and MOL004941 （baicalin）， thereby modulating the PI3K/Akt and JAK/STAT signaling pathways. The animal experiment results showed that compared with the normal group， the model group had significantly increased body weight， body fat weight， and serum levels of TG， TC， TNF-α， IL-6， and leptin （P<0.01）. EGFR mRNA expression was significantly elevated （P<0.05）， while STAT3 mRNA expression was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Histological analysis revealed disordered hepatic architecture in the model group， with pronounced lipid vacuoles， cytoplasmic loosening， lipid accumulation， and steatosis. Adipocytes in white adipose tissue （WAT） and brown adipose tissue （BAT） of the model group exhibited markedly increased diameters， reduced cell counts per unit area， and irregular morphology. Compared with the model group， the ASR-PR group significantly reduced body weight， body fat weight， serum TC， IL-6， TNF-α， leptin levels， and EGFR mRNA expression （P<0.01）. TG levels were also significantly decreased （P<0.05）， while STAT3 mRNA expression was significantly increased （P<0.01）. Histopathological improvements included reduced size and number of hepatic lipid vacuoles and restoration of liver cell morphology toward that of the normal group. The diameter of adipocytes significantly decreased， and the number of adipocytes per unit area increased. ConclusionASR-PR may regulate the expression of key target proteins such as EGFR and STAT3 via its core active components， modulate the PI3K/Akt and JAK/STAT signaling pathways， repair damaged liver and adipose tissues， and thereby alleviate the progression of obesity in mice.

Paraplegia caused by spinal cord injury is a serious neurological complication, for which surgery is currently the main treatment method. Due to different surgical approaches, patients are usually expected to maintain a passive prone position for a long time or switch between the supine and prone positions. Affected by multiple factors such as neurogenic sensory disorders, pathological changes in muscle tone and operative duration, the risk of intraoperative acquired pressure injury (IAPI) is significantly increased. Current clinical prevention strategies for IAPI in these patients predominantly focus on localized pressure relief during positioning, lacking systematic, standardized comprehensive prevention protocols or evidence-based guidelines. To address it, Department of Nursing, Orthopedics Branch, China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, Spinal Trauma Professional Committee, Orthopedics Branch, Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Nursing Group of Spine and Spinal Cord Professional Committee of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine organized experts in relevant fields to formulate Guideline for the prevention of intraoperative acquired pressure injury in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury ( version 2025), based on evidence-based medical evidence and latest research results and clinical practice at home and abroad. Eleven recommendations were put forward from the aspects of preoperative risk assessment, intraoperative prevention strategies, postoperative handover and monitoring, and supportive mechanisms for IAPI prevention, aiming to standardize the prevention measures and management strategies of IAPI in paraplegic patients with spinal cord injury and accelerate the recovery of patients and improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological characteristics and prognostic factors of patients with Castleman disease (CD).Methods:A retrospective case-series study was conducted. A total of 85 patients newly diagnosed with CD in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University between July 2007 and August 2024 were collected. Their clinical characteristics and prognostic factors were analyzed.Results:Among the 85 patients, 45 had unicentric Castleman disease (UCD) and 40 had multicentric Castleman disease (MCD). In the UCD group, females were more commonly affected (64.4%, 29/45), with a median age of onset of 39 years. The primary lesions were mainly located in the retroperitoneum, neck, abdomen, and axilla; and the hyaline vascular subtype was the predominant pathological type (69.4%, 25/36). In the MCD group, males were more frequently affected (62.5%, 25/40), with a median age of onset of 50 years; and the plasmacytic subtype was the main pathological type (68.2%, 15/22). Compared with UCD patients, MCD patients presented more systemic symptoms and signs [85.0% (34/40) vs. 13.3% (6/45), χ2 = 43.66, P < 0.001], splenomegaly [42.5% (17/40) vs. 2.2% (1/45), χ2 = 20.58, P < 0.001], hepatomegaly [25.0% (10/40) vs. 0 (0/45), χ2 = 10.46, P = 0.001], edema or effusion in serous cavity [67.5% (27/40) vs. 8.9%(4/45), χ2 = 31.40, P < 0.001], hematological system involvement [32.5% (13/40) vs. 0 (0/44), χ2 = 16.92, P < 0.001], and renal involvement [22.5% (9/40) vs. 2.3%(1/44), χ2 = 6.36, P = 0.012]. Laboratory findings showed that the levels of hemoglobin and albumin in MCD patients were lower than those in UCD patients, while white blood cell count in MCD patients was higher than that in UCD patients. Additionally, MCD patients exhibited elevated levels of C-reactive protein, interleukin-6, vascular endothelial growth factor, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and ferritin compared to UCD patients (all P < 0.05). Among UCD patients, 40 cases underwent simple surgical resection, with no deaths during follow-up and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rate of 100.0%; among MCD patients, 34 cases received chemotherapy, 4 received siltuximab, 3 died during follow-up with a 5-year OS rate of 87.5%; and there was no statistically significant difference in OS between the MCD and UCD groups ( χ2 = 3.67, P = 0.055). Among MCD patients, the OS of those with renal involvement (9 cases) was worse than that of those without renal involvement (31 cases) ( χ2 = 8.39, P = 0.004). Conclusions:CD is a highly heterogeneous disorder. Surgical resection is the primary treatment for UCD, with a favorable prognosis. Chemotherapy is the main treatment for MCD, with a relatively poor prognosis.

Objective To determine the relationship between the triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and subclinical left ventricular dysfunction(SLVD)in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 148 patients with T2DM who were admitted to Anyang Regional Hospital of Puyang were enrolled in this study from January to December 2023.They were divided into simple T2DM group with global longitudinal strain(GLS)value≥18%(n=89)and SLVD group with GLS value<18%(n=59)according to the left ventricular function.The general data,biochemical indexes,TyG index and homeostatic model 2 assessment for insulin resistance(HOMA2-IR)were compared between the two groups.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between clinical indicators and TyG index.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the predictive value of TyG index and HOMA2-IR for SLVD in T2DM patients.Results BMI,WC,HOMA2-IR,end-diastolic interventricular septal thickness(IVSTD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVDD),left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVDS),left ventricular end-diastolic posterior wall thickness(LVPWTD),left atrial diameter(LAD),HbA1c,FPG,FC-P,TG and TyG were higher(P<0.05),while GLS and LVEF were lower in SLVD group than in T2DM group(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that TyG index was positively correlated with BMI,WC,IVSTD,LVDS,LVPWTD,HbA1c,FPG,FC-P,TG,HOMA2-IR(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with GLS and LVEF(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of TyG index was 0.810,the sensitivity was 54.2%,the specificity was 98.9%,and the cut-off value was 9.45 for predicting SLVD in T2DM patients.The AUC of HOMA2-IR was 0.651,the sensitivity was 42.4%,the specificity was 84.2%,and the cut-off value was 1.85 for predicting SLVD in T2DM patients.Conclusions The TyG index was independently associated with SLVD in patients with T2DM and was a more reliable indicator of SLVD than HOMA2-IR.

Objective Based on the traditional Chinese medicine theory of"simultaneous regulation of the liver and kidney,"this study integrated network pharmacology prediction,molecular docking,and animal experimental validation to analyze the multi-target regulatory network of Duzhong Xionghua(the male flower of Eucommia ulmoides)-Sanqi Hua(Sanchi flower)herb pair(hereinafter called"herb pair")in modulating glucolipid metabolic disorders in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),thereby elucidating its underlying molecular mechanism.Methods Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,VIP Database for Chinese Technical Periodicals,and Wanfang Data were used to obtain the active ingredients of the male flower of Eucommia ulmoides and Sanchi flower.PubChem Compound,SwissTargetPrediction,and SuperPred were used to screen and predict the targets of the drugs;The Human Gene Database,The Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man,and Therapeutic Target Database were used to screen the key gene targets of T2DM.A"component-target-pathway"network diagram was constructed using Cytoscape software,and Gene Ontology functional annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis were employed to identify the functions of the relevant target genes and pathways.Molecular docking was used to verify the binding activities of the core components and the key targets.For animal experiments,spontaneous T2DM model mice were used,in which the normal group consisted of six mice(wild type)from the same litter,and the 24 successfully modeled mice were randomly divided into model,metformin(0.26 g/kg),high-dose herb pair(2.6 g/kg),and low-dose herb pair groups(1.3 g/kg)according to the blood glucose levels and body weights,with six mice per group.The drugs were administered by gavage daily for six consecutive weeks.The body weight and fasting blood glucose(FBG)levels were measured weekly,and an oral glucose tolerance test was performed in the fifth week.At the end of drug administration,body weight,naso-anal length,liver and bilateral epididymal adipose mass were measured;pathological changes in the liver were observed using HE staining;serum levels of aspartate transaminase(AST),alanine amino-transferase(ALT),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)were detected using colorimetric assay;and liver tissue phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)/glycogen synthase kinase-3β(GSK-3β)signaling pathway protein expressions were determined using Western blotting.Results Network pharmacology screening identified 38 active components and 669 potential targets of the herb pair.Intersection analysis with 1,275 T2DM-related targets yielded 185 common targets.Protein-protein interaction network analysis and pathway enrichment revealed the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway as a key mechanism.Molecular docking confirmed the strong binding affinity of the core components to key targets such as AKT1,suggesting that the herb pair may activate the PI3K/AKT pathway and inhibit GSK-3β activity via beta-sitosterol etc.Animal experiments demonstrated that,compared with the model group,the metformin group exhibited reduced FBG,AST,and ALT levels(P<0.01),but failed to improve body weight,Lee's index,or epididymal fat coefficient.Both herb pair doses significantly lowered Lee's index,hepatic index,and the epididymal fat coefficient(P<0.01),with the low-dose herb pair group showing attenuated body weight gain in mice.In contrast,the high-dose herb pair group exhibited decreased FBG,improved glucose tolerance,reduced TC,TG,and LDL-C levels,and increased HDL-C level(all P<0.01).HE staining revealed that all metformin and the herb pair markedly restored hepatic structure and alleviated steatosis in model mice,with more pronounced effects in the high-dose group than in the low-dose group.Western blotting result indicated that in the low-dose herb pair group,phospho-PI3K(p-PI3K),AKT,and phospho-GSK-3β(p-GSK-3β)protein expressions significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),whereas GSK-3β decreased(P<0.05).The high-dose group exhibited enhanced PI3K,p-PI3K,AKT,phospho-AKT,and p-GSK-3β protein expressions(all P<0.01),accompanied by reduced GSK-3β expression(P<0.01).Conclusion The male flower of Eucommia ulmoides-Sanchi flower herb pair may ameliorate T2DM-related glucolipid metabolic disorders by modulating the PI3K/AKT/GSK-3β pathway.
