Dry eye disease(DED)is a multifactorial disorder with an unclear pathogenesis. Advances in omics technologies have introduced a novel medical research approach, enabling the identification of global response variables from a single-factor perspective. However, multi-omics methods integrate multiple omics datasets to analyze all potential response variables, generating multidimensional and evidence-supported holistic inferences. These insights help elucidate functional impairments of ocular cells and biomolecular processes during disease progression, thereby revealing correlations between biomolecules and complex diseases. This review summarizes the application of multi-omics technologies in clarifying the pathogenesis and intricate molecular mechanisms of dry eye disease. Distinctive features from genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and microbiomics are integrated to deepen the understanding of the pathogenesis and complex molecular mechanisms underlying dry eye disease.

[摘 要] 目的：探讨环指蛋白8（RNF8）对子宫内膜癌（EC）细胞顺铂（CDDP）敏感性的影响及可能机制。方法：基于在线数据库分析RNF8在EC组织中的表达及拷贝数变异；采用慢病毒介导shRNA稳定敲低Ishikawa细胞中RNF8表达并进行CDDP处理，按sh-NC+溶剂对照、sh-RNF8+溶剂对照、sh-NC + CDDP、sh-RNF8 + CDDP分组处理，并设置sh-RNF8 + CDDP + KU60019抑制实验。采用CCK-8、克隆形成、Annexin V-FITC/PI流式细胞术、Hoechst 33258/PI染色、WB及γ-H2AX免疫荧光检测细胞活力、克隆形成、凋亡、DNA损伤累积及ATM/CHK2通路相关蛋白表达。结果：RNF8在EC组织和细胞中表达升高。RNF8敲低降低细胞存活率和IC50，抑制克隆形成，并进一步增强CDDP诱导的凋亡；同时BAX、Cleaved-Caspase-3和γ-H2AX表达升高，BCL-2、p-ATM、p-CHK2和RAD21表达降低。KU60019处理进一步促进DNA损伤累积和细胞凋亡，并降低细胞活力。结论：RNF8可能通过ATM/CHK2轴促进DNA损伤应答并降低EC细胞对CDDP的敏感性；敲低RNF8可增加DNA损伤累积并增强CDDP敏感性。

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of sivelestat sodium in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in the intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:Sixty patients with ARDS admitted to the ICU of the Fuyang Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University from August 1, 2023 to November 1, 2024 were selected and divided into the control group (conventional treatment, 30 cases) and the sivelestat sodium group (treated with sivelestat sodium in addition to conventional treatment, 30 cases) by the random number table method. The clinical data such as inflammatory factors, blood gas analysis indicators, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ score and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score of the two groups of patients before treatment and 3 days after treatment were compared. The prognostic indicators such as mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay time, total hospital stay time, 28-day mortality rate and clinical efficacy of the two groups of patients were compared.Results:Before treatment, there were no statistically significant differences in inflammatory factors, blood gas analysis indicators, APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). After 3 days of treatment, the improvement degrees of APACHE Ⅱ score, SOFA score, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), procalcitonin (PCT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and C-reactive protein (CRP) in the sivelestat sodium group were all greater than those in the control group. The differences were all statistically significant (all P<0.05); The mechanical ventilation time [(5.31±4.12) d vs (7.17±2.32)d] and ICU stay [(6.31±3.42)d vs (8.93±5.26)d] of patients in the sivelestat sodium group were significantly shorter than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the 28-day mortality rate between the sivelestat sodium group [20.00%(6/30)] and the control group [43.33%(13/30)] ( P>0.05). The total effective rate of treatment in the sivelestat sodium group was significantly higher than that in the control group [80.00%(24/30) vs 56.67%(17/30)], and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.167, P=0.041). Conclusions:Sivelestat sodium is helpful in improving the physiological parameters of patients with ARDS, effectively reducing the levels of inflammatory factors in the body, shortening the duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay, but has no significant effect on the 28-day mortality rate.

This paper summarizes Professor SHI Zaixiang's clinical experience in treating high fever caused by sepsis using Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang Decoction （柴胡桂枝干姜汤）. He holds that the key pathogenesis of sepsis involves constrained heat in the shaoyang and internal accumulation of water and fluids. The clinical manifestations such as high fever， chills， and alternating sensations of cold and heat are attributed to pathogenic heat constrained in the shaoyang. Meanwhile， soft tissue edema and serous cavity effusions are due to shaoyang dysfunction and internal water retention. In clinical practice， treating sepsis-related high fever requires addressing both the shaoyang-constrained heat and the associated edema and effusions. The therapeutic approach focuses on harmonizing the shaoyang and resolving internal fluids， using Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang Decoction as the base formula with flexible modifications. Professor SHI emphasizes that this formula shows a rapid antipyretic effect， particularly in cases where multiple anti-infective treatments have failed.

The pricing and reimbursement of orphan drugs are related to the accessibility of patients,and are of great significance to the prevention and guarantee of rare diseases.European countries have formed special standards and paths for health technology evaluation,and established special payment funds and diversified risk-sharing agreements,which have effectively improved the accessibility of orphan drugs.Based on this,it selected typical European countries to compare the orphan drug pricing and reimbursement methods.Then,it put forward some suggestions"building orphan drug health technology evaluation accelerated program,exploring the health of orphan drug classification security mechanism,and attaining supply incentives and development incentives through orphan drug pricing and adjustment",to optimize the basis for the orphan drug market access mechanism to provide reference.

Objective To observe the effects of line-needling method combined with distal acupoint selection on the temperature of waist and lower limb circulation in patients with Taiyang meridian type lumbar disc herniation(LDH)using infrared thermal imaging.Methods A total of 54 subjects were included,including 34 patients with Taiyang meridian type LDH and 20 healthy subjects.The patients were treated with lumbar line-needling method and distal acupuncture,leaving the needle for 30 min,once every other day,3 times a week for 4 weeks.Healthy subjects were not treated.The infrared thermal imaging of the waist and lower limbs of healthy subjects and patients before and after treatment was collected,and 4 areas(affected lumbar muscle area,thigh posterior side,popliteal cavity and calf posterior side)through which the meridians ran were selected to measure and record the body surface temperature.The difference of circulating temperature between healthy subjects and patients before and after treatment was compared and analyzed.The simplified McGill Pain Scale(SF-MPQ)score and Oswestry Disability Index(ODI)score were compared before and after treatment,and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.Results LDH patients with Taiyang meridian type had abnormal temperature along the meridian in the waist and lower limbs.Compared with healthy subjects,abnormal low-temperature areas could be seen in the meridian areas of the waist and lower limbs(P<0.05).After treatment,the temperature in the meridian area increased,and the SF-MPQ score and ODI score significantly decreased(P<0.05),with a total effective rate of 97.06%(33/34).Conclusion The combination of line-needling method and distal acupoint selection can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of LDH patients with Taiyang meridian type,and has a significant adjustment effect on the changes of lumbar and lower limb meridian temperature.

TCM believes that spleen deficiency is the root cause of emotional abnormalities in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), and clinical treatment often involves the heart, liver and kidney. TCM therapy has a significant efficacy in CFS emotional abnormalities. It is mostly treated with oral administration of TCM, acupuncture, moxibustion and massage therapy. It may play a therapeutic role by improving oxidative stress and immune inflammation, regulating nerve-endocrine, controlling energy metabolism and other ways. It is suggested to establish the syndrome differentiation standard of CFS emotional abnormality in the future, so as to improve the accuracy of syndrome differentiation and treatment; form a perfect treatment guide or expert consensus to guide the standardized application of various internal and external treatment methods; explore objective indicators based on the pathogenesis, and focus on the morphological and functional changes of disease target brain regions with the help of neuroimaging techniques, so as to improve the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of CFS; based on the guidance of TCM theory, improve the CFS emotional abnormal animal modeling method.

Objective:To understand the current status of anemia, iron deficiency, and iron-deficiency anemia among preschool children in China.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with a multi-stage stratified sampling method to select 150 streets or townships from 10 Chinese provinces, autonomous regions, or municipalities (East: Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shandong, and Hainan; Central: Henan; West: Chongqing, Shaanxi, Guizhou, and Xinjiang; Northeast: Liaoning). From May 2022 to April 2023, a total of 21 470 children, including community-based children aged 0.5 to<3.0 years receiving child health care and kindergarten-based children aged 3.0 to<7.0 years, were surveyed. They were divided into 3 age groups: infants (0.5 to<1.0 year), toddlers (1.0 to<3.0 years), and preschoolers (3.0 to<7.0 years). Basic information such as sex and date of birth of the children was collected, and peripheral blood samples were obtained for routine blood tests and serum ferritin measurement. The prevalence rates of anemia, iron deficiency, and iron-deficiency anemia were analyzed, and the prevalence rate differences were compared among different ages, sex, urban and rural areas, and regions using the chi-square test.Results:A total of 21 460 valid responses were collected, including 10 780 boys (50.2%). The number of infants, toddlers, and preschoolers were 2 645 (12.3%), 6 244 (29.1%), and 12 571 (58.6%), respectively. The hemoglobin level was (126.7±14.8) g/L, and the serum ferritin level was 32.3 (18.5, 50.1) μg/L. The overall rates of anemia, iron deficiency, and iron-deficiency anemia were 10.4% (2 230/21 460), 28.3% (6 070/21 460), and 3.9% (845/21 460), respectively. The prevalence rate of anemia was higher for boys than for girls (10.9% (1 173/10 780) vs. 9.9% (1 057/10 680), χ2=5.58, P=0.018), with statistically significant differences in the rates for infants, toddlers and preschoolers (18.0% (475/2 645), 10.6% (662/6 244), and 8.7% (1 093/12 571), respectively, χ2=201.81, P<0.01), and the rate was significantly higher for children in rural than that in urban area (11.8% (1 516/12 883) vs. 8.3% (714/8 577), χ2=65.54, P<0.01), with statistically significant differences in the rates by region ( χ2=126.60, P<0.01), with the highest rate of 15.8% (343/2 173) for children in Central region, and the lowest rate of 5.3% (108/2 053) in Northeastern region. The prevalence rates of iron deficiency were 33.8% (895/2 645), 32.2% (2 011/6 244), and 25.2% (3 164/12 571) in infants, toddlers, and preschoolers, respectively, and 30.0% (3 229/10 780) in boys vs. 26.6% (2 841/10 680) in girls, 21.7% (1 913/8 821), 40.0% (870/2 173), 27.1% (2 283/8 413), 48.9% (1 004/2 053) in Eastern, Central, Western, and Northeastern regions, respectively, and each between-group showed a significant statistical difference ( χ2=147.71, 29.73, 773.02, all P<0.01). The prevalence rate of iron-deficiency anemia showed a significant statistical difference between urban and rural areas, 2.9% (251/8 577) vs. 4.6% (594/12 883) ( χ2=38.62, P<0.01), while the difference in iron deficiency prevalence was not significant ( χ2=0.51, P=0.476). Conclusions:There has been a notable improvement in iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia among preschool children in China, but the situation remains concerning. Particular attention should be paid to the prevention and control of iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia, especially among infants and children in the Central, Western, and Northeastern regions of China.
