Background: Aerobic exercise training and drug therapy are well-established interventions for the prevention and treatment of hypertension and dyslipidemia. We investigated the synergistic effects of aerobic exercise and olmesartan/rosuvastatin on epicardial fat thickness (EFT) and endothelial function in patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia. Methods: A sample of 75 participants with hypertension and dyslipidemia was evaluated for multifactorial cardiovascular risk at baseline and at 6 months of intervention according to anthropometric and hemodynamic components, lipid profile, glycemia, brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD), and EFT. After 3 months of drug therapy only, participants were allocated to one of three conditions: treadmill (n=22), exergame (n=29), or control (n=24). Results: After 12 weeks of drug therapy only, systolic and diastolic blood pressure (3% and 2%, both p<0.05), total cholesterol (6.3%, p<0.01), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (4.9%, p<0.05), triglycerides (11.1%, p<0.05), fasting blood glucose (10.2%, p<0.01), and glycosylated hemoglobin (3%, p<0.01) were significantly reduced. After 12 weeks of combined aerobic exercise and drug therapy, both the treadmill and exergame groups showed a significant improvement in FMD (both p<0.001) and reduction in EFT (both p<0.001). Systolic and diastolic blood pressures decreased in the treadmill group only (1.9% and 2.7%, respectively, p<0.05). Conclusions Incorporating aerobic exercise into drug therapy regimens can yield synergistic effects, particularly in improving endothelial function and reducing EFT, providing a comprehensive approach to managing cardiovascular risk in patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia.

Voice biomarkers， as an emerging smart medical technology， are now being used in applications such as assisting in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases， facilitating accurate and personalized medical services for patients. However， it also raises many ethical issues， including informed consent， privacy protection， accuracy and reliability， data security， legal risks， and other issues. This paper systematically sorted out the ethical issues in the applications of voice biomarkers in the medical field， summarized these issues， such as informed consent， privacy protection， accuracy and reliability， data security， and legal risks， as well as explored the corresponding coping strategies. These countermeasures encompassed utilizing new media platforms to raise public awareness of voice biomarkers， strengthening supervision and management to promote the privacy protection of voice biomarkers， reducing algorithm biases to promote the general benefits of voice biomarkers to the public， establishing multidisciplinary teams to protect the data security of voice biomarkers， and encouraging medical professionals and researchers to participate in policy research， with a view to providing references for promoting and regulating the applications of voice biomarkers in the medical field.

OBJECTIVE To explore the characteristics and influential factors of pharmaceutical clinic service demands， providing evidence for optimizing pharmaceutical service models and facilitating pharmaceutical service models of pharmacist role transformation. METHODS A cross-sectional survey design was adopted， and 410 outpatient participants were selected from Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center through convenience sampling for questionnaire administration from February to May 2025. Kano model was applied to analyze the demand attributes of 25 pharmaceutical services， while questionnaires were used to assess patients’ awareness and demand status. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on key demographic variables such as gender， age， educational attainment， and economic burdens， to SACA- systematically examine the differences in Kano attribute classification among patients in each subgroup. RESULTS The awareness rate of pharmaceutical outpatient services among patients was only 14.63%， yet those who were aware demonstrated a significantly higher demand rate for such services compared to those who were unaware （P＜0.001）. The demand for pharmaceutical clinic services exhibited a hierarchical characteristic： twelve items were identified as attractive attributes （e. g.， providing suggestions for more affordable treatment options， offering online consultation services， etc.）， five items as expected attributes （e.g.， having a good attitude and being able to patiently answer your questions， etc.）， three items as must-have attributes （e.g.， providing guidance on medication dosage and usage， providing guidance on medication precautions， etc.）， five items as indifferent attributes （e.g.， providing treatment plan recommendations based on the patient’s condition）. There were zero items classified as reverse attribute. Subgroup analysis revealed that female patients showed greater concern for “neat and clean attire of medical staff” than male patients （P＜0.001）； patients under 60 years of age demonstrated stronger demand for “providing treatment plan recommendations based on patients’ conditions” compared to patients aged 60 or above （P＝0.016）； those with below high school education placed greater emphasis on “providing guidance on medication precautions” compared to those with a high school education or above （P＝0.011）； patients with lower economic burdens exhibited stronger preferences for “neat and clean attire of medical staff ” （P＝0.002）. CONCLUSIONS The public awareness rate of pharmaceutical clinic services is considerably low； however， those who are aware of such services demonstrate significantly higher demand. The medication safety-related services and convenience-oriented demands should be prioritized in the development of pharmaceutical clinics. Moreover， the study also revealed that factors such as gender， age， educational level， and economic burdens exert significant influences on patients’ service demands.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of Lutongning granules in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia in animal models and study its mechanism of action， so as to provide laboratory data support for the clinical application of Lutongning granules and precise treatment. MethodMale SD rats were randomly divided into normal group， model group， carbamazepine group （0.06 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， high-dose Lutongning group （2.70 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and low-dose Lutongning group （1.35 g·kg^-1·d^-1） according to the stratified basic mechanical pain thresholds， with 10 rats in each group. A trigeminal neuralgia model of rats was prepared by injecting 30% talc suspension into the infraorbital foramen area of the rat. The drug groups were administered 10 mL·kg^-1 of drugs by gavage after 2 h of modeling. The normal group and the model group were administered distilled water by gavage under the same conditions once a day for 10 consecutive days. Von Frey brushes were used to determine the mechanical pain threshold of rats. A fully automated blood and body fluid analyzer was employed to detect the blood routine of rats. Hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining was utilized to detect the pathological changes in the trigeminal ganglion and medulla oblongata tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was used to scan the ultrastructure of the medulla oblongata tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors interleukin （IL）-1， IL-6， IL-8， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， neuropeptide substance P， and β-endorphins （β-EP） in the serum of rats， and Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of IL-1β， purinergic receptor P2X7 （P2X7R）， and phosphorylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （p-p38 MAPK）. ResultCompared with that in the normal group， the pain threshold of rats in the model group was significantly lower （P<0.01）. The absolute value of neutrophils （NEUT#） and the percentage of neutrophils （NEUT） were significantly improved， and the percentage of lymphocytes （LYMPH） was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The serum levels of IL-1， IL-6， IL-8， and TNF-α were significantly increased （P<0.01）. SP content in brain tissue was significantly increased， and β-EP content was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The relative protein expression of IL-1β， P2X7R， and p-p38 MAPK was significantly increased （P<0.05）. HE staining and transmission electron microscopy results of medulla oblongata tissue revealed neuronal degeneration， mild proliferation of microglial cells， reduction in the number of myelinated nerves， and obvious demyelination. The trigeminal nerve fibers of rats were disarranged， and some nerve fibers showed vacuolization. Axons were swollen， and Schwann cells proliferated. Demyelination was observed. Compared with the model group， each administration group significantly increased the pain threshold of rats （P<0.05， P<0.01）， reduced NEUT# and NEUT， and elevated LYMPH （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The administration group significantly decreased the levels of IL-1， IL-6， IL-8， and TNF-α in serum and SP in brain tissue （P<0.01） and increased the level of β-EP （P<0.01）. They significantly down-regulated the protein expression of IL-1β， P2X7R， and p-p38 MAPK（P<0.05， P<0.01） and significantly ameliorated the pathological changes in medulla oblongata tissue and trigeminal nerves of rats. ConclusionLutongning Granules had significant therapeutic effects on trigeminal neuralgia induced by injection of talc into the infraorbital foramen of model rats， and the mechanism may be related to amelioration of P2X7R-mediated neuroinflammation and inhibition of demyelination of myelinated nerves.

Objective To explore the correlation between serum microRNA-29a-3p(miR-29a-3p),throm-bospondin 2(THBS2)and cardiopulmonary function in children with chronic pulmonary heart disease.Meth-ods A total of 136 children with chronic pulmonary heart disease treated in Shijiazhuang Hospital of Tradi-tional Chinese Medicine from July 2019 to September 2023 were selected as the study subjects.Based on their clinical signs,cardiopulmonary function,and symptoms,they were divided into a compensated group(74 ca-ses)and a decompensated group(62 cases).Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was applied to detect serum miR-29a-3p level,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect serum THBS2 level.Moreover,ultrasound diagnostic equipment was applied to detect cardiac function indicators such as left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and cardiac output(CO).Creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)and troponin(cTnl)were detected by electroluminescence analysis.Pulmonary function indicators were detected by pulmonary artery systolic pressure(PASP),mean pulmonary artery pressure(MPAP)and pulmonary artery diastolic pressure(PADP).Pearson correlation was used to analyze the corre-lation between serum miR-29a-3p and THBS2 levels and cardiopulmonary function indexes in children with chronic pulmonary heart disease,and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the influen-cing factors of the disease in children with chronic pulmonary heart disease.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the evaluation value of serum miR-29a-3p and THBS2 levels in children with chronic pulmonary heart disease.Results The THBS2,CK-MB,cTnI,PASP,MPAP,and PADP in the decompensated group were higher than those in the compensated group(P＜0.05),while miR-29a-3p,LVEF,and CO were lower than those in the compensated group(P＜0.05).Serum miR-29a-3p in children with chro-nic pulmonary heart disease was positively correlated with LVEF and CO(P＜0.05),but negatively correla-ted with CK-MB,cTnI,PASP,MPAP,and PADP(P＜0.05).THBS2 was negatively correlated with LVEF and CO(P＜0.05),but positively correlated with CK-MB,cTnI,PASP,MPAP,and PADP(P＜0.05).MiR-29a-3p was a protective factor for exacerbation of chronic pulmonary heart disease in children(P＜0.05),while THBS2 was an independent risk factor for exacerbation of chronic pulmonary heart disease in children(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum miR-29a-3p and THBS2 levels alone and in combination for evaluating the severity of chronic pulmonary heart disease in children were 0.827,0.817 and 0.915,respectively.Conclusion Serum miR-29a-3p and THBS2 levels are both factors affecting the disease of children with chronic pulmonary heart disease,and are closely related to the disease and cardiopulmonary function of children with chronic pulmonary heart disease.
