Osteoporosis(OP)is a systemic bone disease.In recent years,the researches both at home and abroad find that the oxidative stress(OS)phenomenon driven by the abnormal accumulation of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and pro-inflammatory mediators not only accelerates the differentiation and activation of osteoclasts,but also inhibits the formation of osteoblasts.At the same time,a family of fork-head box pro-teins O(FoxOs)that can regulate OS is found to play a key role in bone homeostasis.Activated FoxOs family can up-regulate the expressions of a series of target genes and play an anti-osteoporosis role,but in certain spe-cial circumstances,the activation of the FoxOs family can also lead to degenerative OP.With great progress in the study of isopsoralen(ISO),ISO is found to have antioxidant effect,which can remove excessive ROS and alleviate the damage of OS on bone cells.At the same time,ISO can enhance the FoxOs family activity by reg-ulating FoxOs family phosphorylation and acetylation levels,thus promote bone formation.This article re-views the action mechanisms of ISO in regulating OS,ROS and FoxOs family,as well as relevant therapeutic strategies targeting the PPAR-γ/Wnt signaling pathway in order to provide references for the prevention and treatment of OP,and improve the living quality of the patients.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the mechanism by which astragaloside IV (AS-IV) alleviates D-galactose (D-GAL)-induced senescence in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). METHODS: Cultured HUVECs were treated with D-GAL (40 g/L), AS-IV (200 μmol/L), D-GAL+AS-IV, or D-GAL+AS-IV+MTK458 (a mitochondrial autophagy agonist, 25 μmol/L) for 48 h, and the changes in cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis capacity were evaluated. Cell apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, mitochondrial membrane potential, and expressions of autophagy-related proteins (LC3-II/LC3-I) and PINK1/Parkin pathway proteins in the treated cells were detected. RESULTS: AS-IV treatment significantly reduced the inhibitory effect of D-GAL on HUVEC viability, effectively alleviated D-GAL-induced impairment of tube-forming ability, and promoted angiogenesis and migration ability of the cells. AS-IV also significantly reduced the rate of D-GAL-induced HUVECs positive for senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) staining and inhibited the expression of senescence-related genes P21 and P53. AS-IV restored mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced intracellular ROS levels in D-GAL-induced HUVECs, and inhibited the fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes to prevent the completion of autophagic flux. In HUVECs treated with both D-GAL and AS-IV, the application MTK458 significantly increased the number of yellow spots and enhanced the expressions of P21, P53, PINK1, Parkin, LC3, and Beclin proteins. CONCLUSIONS AS-IV alleviates D-GAL-induced endothelial cell senescence by inhibiting the PINK1/Parkin pathway to regulate mitochondrial autophagy.

Objective To explore the application value of the Plan-Do-Study-Act(PDSA)cycle in reducing the occur-rence of decomposed hospitalization for stroke disease under the Diagnosis Related Group(DRG)payment model and validate the effectiveness of strategies to reduce decomposed hospitalization.Methods Taking stroke cases participating in DRG payment from January 2022 to December 2022 in a tertiary hospital in Tianjin as the baseline,the criteria for decomposed hospitalization were determined based on the"Implementation Rules for DRG/DIP Network Audit(Trial)"issued by the Tianjin Medical Insur-ance Fund Settlement Center.A PDSA cycle plan was developed according to the document content,and the PDSA cycle was im-plemented from January to December 2023.The relationship between the number of decomposed hospitalizations before and after the PDSA cycle was analyzed using SPSS 20.0 to determine the actual application effect.Results After the PDSA cycle,the number of decomposed hospitalizations decreased from1268 cases to26 cases,a total decrease of 97.95%.The number of cases in each target subgroup and the frequency of factors leading to decomposed hospitalization all showed a significant decrease.Con-clusion The PDSA cycle plays a significant role in addressing the problem of decomposed hospitalization for stroke disease under the DRG payment model.It can effectively reduce the occurrence of decomposed hospitalization,improve the quality of medical insurance settlement lists and medical records,and standardize clinical diagnosis and treatment behavior.

Objective:To analyze the prognostic factors of children with septic shock in the pediatric intensive care unit.Methods:The clinical data of children diagnosed with septic shock in the pediatric intensive care unit of Guiyang Maternal and Child Health Hospital from April 2018 to April 2022 were retrospectively collected,and the children were divided into the death group and the survival group according to seven days regression.The basic data of the two groups were statistically compared，and the relationship between lactic acid，vasoactive-inotropic score one hour after admission，time of antibiotic initiation，serum potassium，serum sodium，serum calcium，serum troponin T，fluid resuscitation volume in the first hour，glutamyl aminotransferase，creatinine，total leukocyte count，C-reaction protein，brain natriuretic peptide were compared.The risk factors affecting the death of children were analyzed by Logistic regression.The relationship between fluid resuscitation volume in the first hour and prognosis was analyzed using the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:（1）A total of 67 children were included，19 died and 48 survived.（2）The first-hour liquid resuscitation dose in the survival group was lower than that in the death group，and the difference was statistically significant（ P<0.05）.（3）The ROC curve showed that the optimal cut-off of the first-hour liquid resuscitation dose was 25 mL/kg，with a sensitivity of 57.9% and a specificity of 72.9%.（4）In unifactorial analysis，lactic acid in the first hour of admission，early lactic acid after resuscitation，serum calcium，serum troponin T，alanine aminotransferase，combined septic encephalopathy，Glasgow coma score，and pediatric critical illness score were all risk factors for death in children within seven days（ P<0.05）.(5) Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum calcium（ OR=1.435， P=0.001）and lactic acid value after resuscitation（ OR=0.040， P=0.021）were independent risk factors for death in septic shock. Conclusion:The higher the total fluid resuscitation in the first hour，the higher the fatality rate.Serum calcium and early lactic acid after resuscitation are independent risk factors for death in children within seven days.

With the widespread use of carbapenem antibiotics,the clinical detection rate of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli has shown a significant increase.Carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli isolates are often extensively or fully resistant,resulting in limited antimicrobial treatment options and high morbidity and mortality rates,posing a serious public health threat.The clinical treatment of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli includes the use of single or combination antimicrobials such as polymyxin,tigecycline,and fosfomycin.A number of new antimicrobials and therapeutic approaches are under development.The clinical management of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative infections is severely challenged by the limited choice of antimicrobial agents.Therefore,this article reviews the current status and progress of antimicrobial treatment for carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacilli to providing clinical reference.
