ObjectiveTo explore the mechanisms of Yangjing Tongluo prescription （YJTL） in the treatment of intrauterine adhesion （IUA） from the perspective of oxidative stress mediated by the Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1 （Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1） signaling pathway. MethodsA total of 48 rats with normal estrous cycles were selected and randomly divided into a normal group （n=8） and a modeling group （n=40）. An IUA rat model was established using a dual-injury method combining surgical curettage and infection. Eight rats were randomly selected from the modeling group for a pilot experiment to confirm successful model establishment. After successful modeling， the remaining 32 rats were randomly divided into a model group， a low-dose YJTL group （YJTL-L）， a high-dose YJTL group （YJTL-H）， and a Progynova group. Rats in the normal and model groups were administered purified water （15 mL·kg^-1） by gavage daily， while rats in the YJTL-L， YJTL-H， and Progynova groups received YJTL at doses of 6.43 and 12.86 g·kg^-1 and Progynova at 2.06 × 10^-4 g·kg^-1， respectively， for 14 consecutive days. The general condition， uterine morphology， and uterine index of the rats were monitored. Histopathological changes in uterine tissue were observed using hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Serum levels of reactive oxygen species （ROS） and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px） were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Protein expression levels of Keap1， Nrf2， and HO-1 in endometrial tissue were detected by Western blot. Immunofluorescence （IF） was used to assess the distribution of Nrf2 and HO-1， as well as the expression of Nrf2 in the cytoplasm and nucleus. ResultsCompared with the normal group， rats in the model group exhibited poor mental status and reduced mobility， markedly edematous and tortuous uterine morphology， decreased gland number， and inflammatory reactions in the endometrium， along with an increased uterine organ index （P<0.05）. Serum ROS levels were significantly increased （P<0.05）， while serum GSH-Px levels were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. In endometrial tissue， Keap1 protein expression was increased （P<0.05）， whereas Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expression was decreased. Mild nuclear translocation of Nrf2 was observed， accompanied by increased relative fluorescence intensity of nuclear Nrf2 and decreased relative fluorescence intensity of cytoplasmic HO-1. Compared with the model group， all treatment groups showed varying degrees of improvement in the above symptoms and pathological changes. Serum ROS levels were reduced （P<0.05）， serum GSH-Px levels were increased （P<0.05）， Keap1 protein expression in endometrial tissue was decreased， and Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expression was increased in a dose-dependent manner （P<0.05）. Notably， significant nuclear translocation of Nrf2 was observed， with correspondingly increased relative fluorescence intensity of nuclear Nrf2 and enhanced relative fluorescence intensity of cytoplasmic HO-1. ConclusionYJTL may enhance antioxidant capacity and repair oxidative damage to the endometrial basal layer by regulating the Keap1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the effect of Simo decoction improving the low duodenal inflammation and protecting the du-odenal mucosal barrier in rats with functional dyspepsia(FD).Methods:Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into control group(10 rats)and model group(50 rats),and the modeling rats were prepared by multivariate intervention method.After successful modeling,the modeling rats were randomly divided into model group,Simo decoction high-dose,medium-dose,low-dose group and mosapride group,with 10 rats in each group.The high-dose,medium-dose,and low-dose groups of Simo decoction were ga-vage given 5.62 g/kg,2.81 g/kg,and 1.40 g/kg,respectively,and the mosapride group was gavage given 0.305 mg/kg of mosapride,and the control group and model group were gavage given the same amount of distilled water for 14 days.The body weight of rats was observed;gastric emptying rate and small bowel propulsion rate were measured;transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the morphology of duodenal epithelial cells;ELISA detected serum levels of IL-17A and IL-22;Western blot and immunohistochemis-try were used to detect the expressions of protease-activated receptor 2(PAR-2)and tight junction protein(ZO-1,claudin-1)in the duodenum.Results:Compared with the control group,the body weight,gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate of the model group were significantly reduced(P<0.01),transmission electron microscopy showed widening of the duodenal epithelial cell space,serum IL-17A and IL-22 levels were significantly increased(P<0.01),the expression of PAR-2 in duodenal tissue was in-creased,and the expressions of ZO-1 and claudin-1 were downregulated(P<0.01).Compared with model group,the gastric emptying rate and small intestinal propulsion rate in Simo decoction high-dose,medium-dose and mosapride group were increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),the contents of IL-17A and IL-22 in serum decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the expression of PAR-2 in duodenal tissues was down-regulated,the expressions of ZO-1 and claudin-1 was significantly increased(P<0.01).The low-dose group of Simo soup could improve weight loss(P<0.01),reduce IL-17A content and PAR-2 expression,and increase ZO-1 and claudin-1 expression(P<0.05,P<0.01),while the effect on other indexes was not obvious.Conclusion:Simo decoction may reduce low-grade duodenal in-flammation to repair the mucosal barrier by down-regulating the levels of IL-17A and IL-22 and the expression of PAR-2,and up-regu-lating the expression of ZO-1 and claudin-1,so as to exert the effect of FD treatment.

Objective To explore the short-term prognosis and risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with fulminant myocarditis induced refractory cardiogenic shock(FM-RCS)receiving veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(VA-ECMO)treatment,and to construct an early prognosis prediction model using relevant indicators.Methods A total of 61 FM-RCS patients treatment by VA-ECMO in the department of intensive care unit of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to February 2024,excluding 15 cases with age less than 18 years and 3 cases with ECMO treatment duration less than 24 hours,a total of 43 patients were finally included.Participants were stratified into survival(n=19)and mortality(n=24)groups according to discharge outcomes.Demographic data,chronic disease history,early laboratory indicators,left ventricular function indicators,and basic reference values of hemodynamics were systematically compared between the two groups.Variable selection was performed using LASSO regression,followed by multivariate COX regression analysis to screen independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in ECMO-treatment FM-RCS patients.A nomogram prediction model was subsequently developed using R software and validated through calibration curves,concordance index(C-index),and receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC curve)analysis.Results The overall survival rate of the 43 enrolled patients was 44.2%,with 19 cases in the survival group and 24 cases in the mortality group.In early laboratory indicators,the survival group exhibited significantly lower levels of initial lactic acid(Lac),24-hour Lac(Lac 24 h),24-hour MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase(CK-MB 24 h),24-hour cardiac troponin T(cTnT 24 h),24-hour total bilirubin(TBil 24 h),24-hour serum creatinine(SCr 24 h),and lactate albumin ratio(LAR)compared to the mortality group[initial Lac(mmol/L):2.7(1.3,7.6)vs.9.2(5.9,14.0),Lac 24 h(mmol/L):2.4(2.0,3.6)vs.5.4(3.3,9.2),CK-MB 24 h(U/L):58.0(28.0,115.0)vs.167.7(68.5,280.3),cTnT 24 h(μg/L):0.53(0.37,2.41)vs.3.92(3.10,8.86),TBil 24h(μmol/L):18.3(9.9,37.8)vs.40.2(24.6,67.0),SCr 24 h(μmol/L):90.63±42.49 vs.177.76±70.76,LAR:0.09(0.04,0.23)vs.0.31(0.20,0.38),all P<0.05],serum albumin(Alb)levels were significantly higher in the survival group[g/L:36.0(31.9,39.2)vs.31.7(26.4,34.4),P<0.05].The mortality group had a higher incidence of malignant arrhythmias[66.7%(16/24)vs.31.6%(6/19),P<0.05].The LASSO regression model identified four non-zero coefficient variables-Lac 24 h,CK-MB 24 h,cTnT 24 h,and SCr 24 h-which were included in the subsequent multivariate COX regression analysis.The results demonstrated that Lac 24 h[hazard ratio(HR)and 95%confidence interval(95%CI)was 1.186(1.074-1.310),P<0.001]and cTnT 24 h(HR=1.230,95%CIwas 1.078-1.404,P=0.002)were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in VA-ECMO treatment FM-RCS patients.A predictive model constructed using these two indicators showed a C-index of 0.812,area under the curve(AUC)=0.941,with 91.7%sensitivity and 94.7%specificity.Furthermore,compared to the survival group,the mortality group exhibited significantly higher incidences of acute kidney injury[91.7%(22/24)vs.36.8%(7/19)]and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy[62.5%(15/24)vs.10.5%(2/19),both P<0.05].The mortality group also required greater transfusion volumes[mL:3 800(1 420,8 515)vs.1 200(400,3 020),P<0.05],but had shorter total hospitalization durations[days:7(3,13)vs.23(20,44),P<0.05].Conclusion For FM-RCS patients receiving VA-ECMO treatment,Lac 24 h and cTnT 24 h after ECMO initiation are independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.Clinicians should be vigilant about poor prognosis in FM-RCS patients with high Lac 24 h hours(>2.5 mmol/L)and cTnT 24 hours(>3.01 μg/L)after ECMO treatment.

Objective To investigate the application efficiency and potential of CT radiomics in differentiating malignant and benign sub-centimeter solid pulmonary nodules. Methods A retrospective study was performed on the sub-centimeter ( ≤ 10 mm) solid pulmonary nodules detected by enhanced CT in our hospital from March 2020 to January 2023. Malignancy was confirmed by surgical pathology, and benignity was confirmed by surgical pathology or follow-up. Lesions were manually segmented and radiomic features were extracted. The feature dimension was reduced via feature correlation analysis and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO). The 5-fold cross validation was used to validate the model. Support vector machine, logistic regression, linear classification support vector machine, gradient boosting, and random forest models were established for CT radiomics. Receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn. Delong test was used to compare the diagnostic performance of the five classifiers. The optimal model was selected and compared to radiologists with medium and high seniority. Results A total of 303 nodules, 136 of which were malignant, were examined. Radiomics models were established after feature extraction and selection. On test set, the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of support vector machine, logistic regression, linear classification support vector machine, random forest, and gradient boosting models were 0.922 (95%CI: 0.893, 0.950), 0.910 (95%CI: 0.878, 0.942), 0.905 (95%CI: 0.872, 0.938), 0.899 (95%CI: 0.865, 0.933), and 0.896 (95%CI: 0.862, 0.930), respectively. Delong test indicated no significant differences in the performance of the five radiomics models, and the support vector machine model showed the highest accuracy and F1 score. The support vector machine model showed significantly higher diagnostic accuracy as compared to radiologists (83.8% vs. 55.4%, P < 0.001). Conclusion The radiomics models achieved high diagnostic efficiency and may help to reduce the uncertainty in diagnosis of malignant and benign sub-centimeter solid nodules by radiologists.

OBJECTIVE To explore the improvement effect and mechanism of Simotang oral liquid on functional dyspepsia （FD） model rats by regulating PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 （Pink1）/E3 ubiquitin ligase （Parkin） axis. METHODS SD male rats were subjected to unpredictable chronic stress to establish an FD model， and were randomly grouped into the model group， positive control group （Domperidone tablets， 3.5 mg/kg）， Simo decoction group （Simotang oral liquid， 5.4 mL/kg）， with 20 rats in each group. The blank group without modeling was set up. Administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically， blank group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intragastrically， once a day， for consecutive 14 d. After the last administration， the gastric emptying rate and small intestine propulsion rate of rats were detected. The contents of gastrointestinal hormones [motilin （MTL）， gastrin （GAS） and cholecystokinin （CCK）] in rats were determined； the mitochondrial structure of ICC in gastric antrum tissue of rats was observed； the immunofluorescence co-localization method was applied to observe the expression of cytochrome C oxidase Ⅳ （COX Ⅳ） and Parkin in gastric antrum tissue of rats； the protein expressions of LC3， p62， Pink1 and Parkin in gastric antrum tissue of rats were all detected. RESULTS Compared with the blank group， the gastric emptying rate， small intestinal propulsion rate， the serum contents of MTL and GAS， and protein expression of p62 in model group were all reduced significantly （P＜0.05）； the serum content of CCK， the co-localization expression of COX Ⅳ and Parkin in mitochondria， the protein expressions of LC3， Pink1 and Parkin were all increased significantly （P＜0.05）. The number of ICC mitochondria in gastric antrum tissue decreased， mitochondria became vacuolated， mitochondrial cristae were blurry， and there were more autophagic lysosomes. Compared with the model group， the above indexes of the positive control group and the Simo decoction group were reversed significantly （P＜0.05）； the mitochondrial structure of ICC gradually recovered， with clear mitochondrial cristae and reduced autophagic lysosomes. CONCLUSIONS Simotang oral liquid can improve gastrointestinal motility and gastrointestinal hormone levels in model rats， the mechanism of which may be related to inhibiting Pink1/Parkin axis and blocking autophagy.
