Owing to its inherent advantages—such as being non-destructive, rapid, highly molecule-specific, and minimally interfered with by moisture—Raman spectroscopy has been widely adopted in the fields of skin barrier function assessment, monitoring the transdermal penetration of active cosmetic ingredients, and the identification and quality control of cosmetic products. Despite these strengths, the practical application of this technique faces a significant bottleneck: the strong fluorescence background generated by endogenous skin components and exogenous cosmetic additives. Endogenous skin substances, such as structural proteins (e.g., collagen and elastin), metabolic coenzymes (e.g., nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide), and pigments (e.g., melanin), together with exogenous cosmetic constituents like organic colorants, chemical sunscreens, and fragrances, often possess strong absorption and emission characteristics. When excited by lasers, these components produce a fluorescence background that can be 10⁶ to 10⁸ times stronger than the Raman scattering signals, effectively masking the inherently weak vibrational fingerprint information. In recent years, driven by the rapid development of optoelectronic hardware and artificial intelligence algorithms, fluorescence suppression strategies have evolved from isolated, single-method approaches into comprehensive, multi-level synergistic systems. These systems are categorized into three distinct tiers: sample preparation, signal acquisition, and data processing. At the sample preparation level, techniques such as photobleaching and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) are employed to eliminate or bypass the generation of fluorescence at the source. At the signal acquisition level, instrumental improvements—including the use of long-wavelength near-infrared excitation (typically 785 nm or 1 064 nm), confocal spatial filtering, and shifted excitation Raman difference spectroscopy (SERDS)— are utilized to physically isolate Raman signals from the fluorescence background. Furthermore, at the data processing level, numerical baseline correction methods such as polynomial fitting, penalized least squares (e.g., airPLS, arPLS), wavelet transform, and derivative algorithms are increasingly integrated into the analytical pipeline to extract Raman spectral features from mixed signals without increasing hardware costs or acquisition time. This review provides a systematic categorization and critical evaluation of these fluorescence suppression methods, detailing their underlying principles, technical advantages, and inherent limitations in diverse experimental setups. By focusing on critical application scenarios—including skin barrier assessment, percutaneous absorption monitoring, the routine quality control of cosmetics, and the emerging field of portable on-site detection—this paper explores the current state of technique selection and optimization. Finally, the article discusses future development trends, emphasizing the necessity of constructing adaptive, tiered suppression strategies, developing intelligent and automated data processing algorithms, and promoting the integration of portable, multi-modal diagnostic devices. The objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive technical reference to facilitate the transition of Raman spectroscopy from a specialized laboratory tool into a routine, robust analytical platform for advancements in skin science and cosmetic research.

OBJECTIVE: Although dietary preferences influence chronic diseases, few studies have linked dietary preferences to mortality risk, particularly in large cohorts. To investigate the relationship between dietary preferences and mortality risk (all-cause, cancer, and cardiovascular disease [CVD]) in a large adult cohort. METHODS: A cohort of 1,160,312 adults (mean age 62.48 ± 9.55) from the Shenzhen Healthcare Big Data Cohort (SHBDC) was analyzed. Hazard ratios ( HRs) for mortality were estimated using the Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS: The study identified 12,308 all-cause deaths, of which 3,865 (31.4%) were cancer-related and 3,576 (29.1%) were attributed to CVD. Compared with a mixed diet of meat and vegetables, a mainly meat-based diet (hazard ratio [ HR] = 1.13; 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.02, 1.27) associated with a higher risk of all-cause mortality, while mainly vegetarian ( HR = 0.87; 95% CI: 0.78, 0.97) was linked to a reduced risk. Furthermore, there was a stronger correlation between mortality risk and dietary preference in the > 65 age range. CONCLUSION A meat-based diet was associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality, whereas a mainly vegetarian diet was linked to a reduced risk.

Objective To investigate the effect of total paeony glycoside(TPG)on airway remodeling in bronchial asthma mice and its underlying mechanisms.Methods Forty-eight BALB/c mice were randomly divided into control group,model group,ovalbumin+budesonide group(OVA+BUD group),and OVA+TPG group,with 12 mice in each group.Except the control group,mice in other groups were sensitized by intraperitoneal injection of 10%OVA aluminum hydroxide suspension,and then stimulated by atomized inhalation of 1%OVA to establish mouse asthma model.One hour before each inhalation of OVA,mice in OVA+BUD group were atomized with 2 ml BUD suspension,and mice in OVA+TPG group were given 5 g/kg TPG by intragastric administration.Lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)of mice from each group were collected,and the pathological morphology of the lung tissues was detected by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and periodic acid schiff(PAS)staining.Inflammatory cell counts[white blood cell(WBC),neutrophil(NEU),eosinophils(EOS),and leukomonocyte(LYM)]in BALF were detected by Wright-giemsa staining.The contents of inflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and IL-6 in BALF were determined by ELISA.Airway remodeling proteins[fibronectin,α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),collagen Ⅰ]and NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)inflammasome-related proteins[NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1,apoptosis-associated speck-like protein(ASC)]levels were detected by Western blotting.Human bronchial smooth muscle cells(HBSMCs)were divided into control group(normal culture),transforming growth factor(TGF)-β1 group(culture medium containing 10 ng/ml TGF-β1),and TGF-β1+TPG group(culture medium containing 10 ng/ml TGF-β1 and 50 μg/ml TPG).Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 method,and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of airway remodeling proteins and NLRP3 inflammasome-related proteins.Results Compared with control group,model group exhibited increased infiltration of inflammatory cell in lung tissues,mucosal epithelium hyperplasia,narrowed bronchial lumen narrowed,tube wall thickened,increased cup cells and mucus secretion,and an elevated pathological score of lung injury(P<0.05);the number of inflammatory cells(WBC,NEU,EOS,and LYM)and the levels of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6)in BALF were increased(P<0.05),and the expressions of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC were elevated(P<0.05).Compared with model group,BUD or TPG treatment effectively reduced asthma symptoms,improved lung histopathology injury,inhibited bronchial wall thickening,significantly reduced the number of inflammatory cells(WBC,NEU,EOS,and LYM)and the content of inflammatory factors(TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6)in BALF,and inhibited expression of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC(P<0.05).Compared with control group,the proliferation rate of HBSMCs was increased,and the protein expression levels of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC were increased in TGF-β1 group(P<0.05).Compared with TGF-β1 group,TPG treatment decreased cell proliferation and inhibited the protein expression of fibronectin,α-SMA,collagen Ⅰ,NLRP3,cleaved caspase-1 and ASC(P<0.05).Conclusion TPG may alleviate airway remodeling and asthma symptoms by decreasing the expression of airway remodeling-related proteins,inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation,and reducing the inflammatory response.

Objective To study the pathogenic bacteria infection in hospitalized diabetic foot patients in the Third People's Hospital of Yunnan Province and its correlation with different Wagner grades,to understand the the characteristics of pathogenic bacteria and related risk factors in hospitalized diabetic foot patients in the Third People's Hospital of Yunnan Province,and to further provide theoretical guidance for anti-infection treatment of these patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the demographic data,severity of foot ulcers,and related laboratory test results of 536 patients with diabetic foot who were detected to have bacterial infection in the Third People's Hospital of Yunnan Province from January 2019 to January 2023.Results Among the 536 diabetic foot patients,pathogenic bacteria were cultured from 268 cases(50.0%)of Gram-positive bacterial infections,214 cases(39.9%)of gram-negative bacterial infections,2 cases(0.4%)of fungal infections,and 52 cases(9.7%)of mixed bacterial infections.The main pathogens among gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and Enterococcus faecalis.for Gram-negative bacteria,the main pathogens were Escherichia coli,Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae.There were 31 cases of multi-drug resistant bacteria,and the multi-drug resistance rate was(5.78%).Among Gram-positive bacteria,all multidrug-resistant strains were Staphylococcus aureus,while among Gram-negative bacteria,the multi-drug resistant strains included Acinetobacter baumannii(1 case),Klebsiella pneumoniae(2 cases),Proteus common(2 cases),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(5 cases),Proteus mirabilis(1 case)and Enterobacter cloacae(1 case).The 536 patients were divided into Wagner grade 1 and 2 groups(78 cases),Wagner grade 3 group(274 cases),and Wagner grade 4 and 5 groups(184 cases).There were 73 cases of single bacterial infections and 5 cases of mixed bacterial infections in Wagner grade 1 and 2 group,including 51 cases(65.4%)of gram-positive bacteria,21 cases(26.9%)of gram-negative bacteria and 1 case(1.3%)of fungi.There were 248 cases of single bacterial infections and 26 cases of mixed bacterial infections in Wagner3 group,with 144 cases(52.6%)of gram-positive bacteria,103 cases(37.6%)of gram-negative bacteria,and 1 case(0.4%)with fungi.In the Wagner grade 4 and 5 groups,there were 163 cases of single bacterial infections and 21 cases of mixed bacterial infection,with 73 strains(39.7%)of gram-positive bacteria,90 strains(48.9%)of gram-negative bacteria and 0 strain(0%)of fungi.The predominant infectious pathogens in Wagner grades 1,2 and 3 were gram-positive bacteria,while those in Wagner grades 4 and 5 patients were mainly gram-negative bacteria.There were statistically significant differences in white blood cell counts,neutrophil percentage,bacterial classification,length of hospital stay,erythrocyte sedimentation rate and albumin levels among diabetic foot patients with different Wagner grades(P<0.01).With the increase of Wagner grade,patients had higher white blood cell counts and hypersensitive C-reactive protein levels,longer hospital stays,and lower albumin levels;however,there were no statistically significant differences in age,sex,duration of diabetes,smoking history,alcohol consumption history and history of hypertension(P>0.05).Conclusion The bacterial infection situation in patients with diabetic foot ulcers is related to different Wagner grades.The higher the Wagner grades,the greater the likelihood of infection with gram-negative bacteria.Antibiotics can be reasonably selected according to the Wagner grades of patients upon admission,actively controlling infection,while also enhancing,shortening hospital stays,and reducing amputation rates,thereby improving the prognosis of diabetic foot patients.

Objective To analyze the bacterial distribution characteristics,drug resistance characteristics and related risk factors of multidrug-resistant organisms(MDRO)in patients with diabetic foot infection(DFI)in some areas of Yunnan Province to provide empirical reference for clinical treatment.Methods Clinical data of 300 DFI patients admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of the Third People's Hospital of Yunnan Province from January 2019 to December 2023 were collected.Based on the results of drug sensitivity tests and matching of basic data,patients were divided into the MDRO group(n=60)and the non-MDRO group(n=240).A retrospective analysis was conducted on the distribution of pathogenic bacteria,drug resistance characteristics of MDRO and risk factors for MDRO infection in DFI patients.Results In 60 patients with MDRO infections,62 strains of MDRO were cultured,with 58 strains from single MDRO infections and 4 strains from mixed MDRO infections.Of the 60 patients,2 were cultured for 2 types of MDRO.Among the strains,there were 45 gram-positive bacteria(72.58％)which were all Staphylococcus aureus,17 strains of gram-negative bacteria(27.42％)mainly including Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Enterobacter cloacae and Klebsiella pneumoniae.Among common MDRO,Staphylococcus aureus showed complete resistance to penicillin G and oxacillin(100％),with high resistance to erythromycin and clindamycin(＞80％),but no resistance to tigacycline vancomycin was observed.The resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae to cephalosporin antibiotics was obvious,and the resistance rate to imipenem and amikacin was low.Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 100％resistant to ticacillin/clavulanate potassium,imipenem,tigacycline and cotrimoxazole,but showed no resistance to cefepime,ciprofloxacin,gentamicin and amikacin.There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in regional distribution,duration of diabetic foot,lower extremity arterial disease,venous plasma glucose levels and glycosylated hemoglobin(P＜0.05).Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that region and duration of diabetic foot disease were independent risk factors for MDRO infection in DFI patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion In some areas of Yunnan Province,the distribution of MDRO in DFI patients is mainly gram-positive bacteria,with varying antibiotic sensitivities among different pathogens.Multiple factors lead to MDRO infections in DFI patients,which assists clinical practitioners in early identification of high-risk DFI patients with MDRO infections and provide empirical reference for clinical treatment.

ObjectiveTo analyze the characteristics and influencing factors of elderly hospitalized patients with carbapenem-resistant gram-negative bacillus (CRO) infection in the intensive care unit (ICU) of a gradeⅡ level A general hospital in Yangpu District of Shanghai, and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of hospital-acquired CRO infection in such hospitals. MethodsThe clinical data of elderly ICU patients (age ≥60 years) from January 2019 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected. A total of 122 cases with hospital-acquired CRO infection were used as the case group, and a total of 68 cases with carbapenem-sensitive gram-negative (CSO) infection were used as the control group. The clinical characteristics of the two groups were analyzed, and univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were performed for screening for possible influencing factors on hospital-acquired CRO infection. ResultsThe main pathogens of CRO infection were carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) (53 cases, 43.44%) and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) (46 cases, 37.70%), and 17 patients (13.93%) had more than two types of CRO infection. Among the CRO infection, the main sites were lower respiratory tract infection (58 cases, 47.54%), ventilator-associated pneumonia (21 cases, 17.21%), and catheter-associated urinary tract infections (16 cases, 13.11%). The incidence rate of poor prognosis was higher in the CRO infection group (54.10%) than that in the CSO infection group (36.76%) (P=0.021). The results of univariate analysis showed that male, history of hospitalization within three months, chronic respiratory disease, hypoproteinemia, anemia, and history of invasive procedures prior to infection, including indwelling central venous catheter, invasive mechanical ventilation, urinary catheter, gastric tube placement and parenteral nutrition, in addition, heparin anticoagulation, the use of broad-spectrum penicillin, third-generation cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones, carbapenems, carbapenems combined with fluoroquinolones, carbapenems combined with glycopeptides, use of ≥3 antibiotics and long time of antibiotic use prior to infection were all associated with the CRO infection (P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that use of carbapenems (OR=7.739, 95%CI: 2.226‒26.911), ≥3 types of antibiotics (OR=6.307, 95%CI: 1.674‒23.754), invasive mechanical ventilation (OR=4.082, 95%CI: 1.795‒9.281), urinary catheter (OR=3.554, 95%CI: 1.074‒11.758), and comorbid hypoproteinemia (OR=4.741, 95%CI: 2.039‒11.022) and diabetes (OR=3.245, 95%CI: 1.344‒7.839) were positively correlated with the risk of CRO infection. ConclusionConcurrent use of carbapenems with multiple other antibiotics, as well as the use of invasive mechanical ventilation, urinary catheter, and comorbid hypoproteinemia and diabetes, may be associated with an increased influencing of CRO infection. More attention should be paid to the prevention and control of infection in elderly patients with the above-mentioned risk factors, and active screening of drug-resistant bacteria should be strengthened. Besides, the rational use of broad-spectrum antibiotics such as carbapenems, avoiding unnecessary invasive operations, and paying attention to patient nutrition and blood glucose control all can reduce the incidence of CRO infection and help to improve clinical outcomes.
