Inflammatory diseases (IDs) are a general term of diseases characterized by chronic inflammation as the primary pathogenetic mechanism, which seriously affect the quality of patient′s life and cause significant social and medical burden. Current drugs for IDs include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics, and antioxidants, but these drugs may cause gastrointestinal side effects, induce or worsen infections, and cause non-response or intolerance. Given the outstanding performance of metal polyphenol network (MPN) in the fields of drug delivery, biomedical imaging, and catalytic therapy, its application in the diagnosis and treatment of IDs has attracted much attention and significant progress has been made. In this paper, we first provide an overview of the types of IDs and their generating mechanisms, then sort out and summarize the different forms of MPN in recent years, and finally discuss in detail the characteristics of MPN and their latest research progress in the diagnosis and treatment of IDs. This research may provide useful references for scientific research and clinical practice in the related fields.

Objective To integrate tumor proliferation and immune-related biomarkers to construct a nomogram prediction model for predicting the prognosis of ovarian cancer patients.Methods We collected clinical information from patients diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC)between 2009 and 2013.Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression levels of KI67,epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)and programmed death-ligand 1(PD-Ll)in tumor tissues.We employed Lasso-Cox regression to identify variables and construct the nomogram model.We used time-dependent receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves,concordance index,calibration curves,and decision curve analysis(DC A)curves to assess the model's discrimination,calibration,and net clinical benefit ability,respectively.Additionally,we conducted Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to assess the prognostic value of the model's risk score.Results We included a total of 131 EOC patients who were randomly assigned to the training set(n=79)and validation set(n=52)in a 6∶4 ratio.Lasso-Cox regression identified seven variables for constructing the nomogram prediction model.The AUCs for 1-,4-,and 6-year overall survival in the training set were 0.911,0.943,and 0.968,respectively,with a consistency index of 0.86[95%confidence interval(CI):0.81-0.91].In the validation set,the AUCs for 1-,4-,and 6-year overall survival were 0.830,0.797,and 0.828,respectively,with a consistency index of 0.71(95%CI:0.64-0.78).The calibration curves in both training and validation sets demonstrated strong agreement between model-predicted survival and actual outcomes(all P>0.05).DCA curves indicated that the modeled net clinical benefit outperformed TNM staging.Patients with high-risk scores in the model exhibit poorer overall survival(P<0.01)and progression-free survival(P<0.01).Conclusion The successful development and validation of a nomogram prediction model based on tumor proliferation and immune-related biomarkers offer an efficient and straightforward clinical tool.This tool holds promise for enabling personalized treatment strategies for patients with ovarian cancer.

Based on the literature study,the thoughts and possible therapeutic mechanism in treating male infertility from the perspective of spleen and kidney by regulating intestinal flora were explored.Disturbance of intestinal flora is one of the important factors leading to the development of male infertility,and the spleen and kidney have certain similarities to intestinal flora in the physiological function and pathological changes.Moreover,tonifying the kidney and strengthening the spleen can regulate the intestinal flora by fostering the growth of beneficial bacteria,inhibiting the reproduction of pathogenic bacteria,and protecting the barrier of the intestinal mucosa.Therefore,the possible therapeutic mechanisms in treating male infertility with the prescriptions for tonifying the kidney and strengthening the spleen to regulate intestinal flora are as follows:inhibiting the expression of inflammatory factors to reduce the inflammatory reaction of testicular tissues;improving the antioxidant capacity to alleviate the damage of spermatozoa caused by oxidative stress,and improving the bad mood to alleviate the impact of psychological stress on the reproductive system.The exploration of the thoughts for treating male infertility from the perspective of spleen and kidney by regulating intestinal flora may provide a new entry point for modern Chinese medicine clinical treatment of male infertility.
