Refractory depression is a drug-resistant subtype of major depressive disorder for which there is a lack of effective and durable treatments.Seroxibine,the active substance in the mushroom Capsicum annuum,is a natural 5-hydroxytryptamine hallucinogen that activates the 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A receptor to mediate multiple aspects of antidepressant effects.In recent years,it has received renewed attention for its outstanding therapeutic effects in the treatment of refractory depression or other psychiatric disorders.Therefore,this paper summarizes the studies on neuroplasticity,brain neural connectivity network,neurotransmitters,immune factors,microbiota-gut-brain axis,and clinical efficacy of seloxipine in domestic and international literature,and explores the possible mechanisms of seloxipine's effect on refractory depression,with a view to providing theoretical basis for the clinical application of this drug.

Objective:To explore the relationship between BMI and levels of plasma amino acids and acylcarnitines in Chinese adults.Methods:Based on 2 182 individuals with targeted mass spectrometry metabolomic measurements from the first resurvey of the China Kadoorie Biobank, we assessed the linear and nonlinear associations between BMI and plasma levels of 20 amino acids and 40 acylcarnitines using linear regression models and restricted cubic spline models, and identified BMI-related metabolic pathways. We conducted one-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) with BMI genetic risk scores as the instrumental variable further to explore the potential causal relationships between BMI and 20 amino acids and 40 acylcarnitines, and tested for horizontal pleiotropy using the MR-Egger method.Results:Observational analyses found that BMI was associated with increased plasma levels of 3 branched-chain amino acids (isoleucine, leucine, and valine), 2 aromatic amino acids (phenylalanine and tyrosine), 3 other amino acids (cysteine, glutamate, lysine), and 7 acylcarnitines (C3, C4, C5, C10, C10:1, C14, and C16), and with decreased circulating levels of asparagine, serine, and glycine. Pathway analysis identified 7 BMI-related amino acids metabolic pathways (false discovery rate corrected all P<0.05), including branched-chain amino acids and aromatic amino acids biosynthesis, glutathione metabolism, etc. BMI showed a nonlinear relationship with leucine, valine, and threonine, and a linear relationship with other amino acids and acylcarnitines. One-sample MR analyses revealed that BMI was associated with elevated levels of tyrosine and 4 acylcarnitines [C5-DC(C6-OH), C5-M-DC, C12-DC, and C14], with tyrosine and acylcarnitine C14 positively correlated with BMI in both observational [the β values (95% CIs) were 0.057 (0.044-0.070) and 0.018 (0.005-0.032), respectively] and One-sample MR analyses [the β values (95% CIs) were 0.102 (0.035-0.169) and 0.104 (0.036-0.173), respectively]. The MR analyses of the current study satisfied the 3 core assumptions of instrumental variable. Conclusions:BMI was associated with circulating 11 amino acids and 7 acylcarnitines in Chinese adults, involving several pathways such as branched-chain amino acid and aromatic amino acid metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, and oxidative stress. There may be a causal relationship between BMI and tyrosine and acylcarnitine C14.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture at Baliao points combined with Jingui Shenqi Wan Decoction in the treatment of post-stroke neurogenic bladder of kidney-yang deficiency type.Methods A total of 86 patients with post-stroke neurogenic bladder(PSNB)of kidney-yang deficiency type were randomly divided into observation group and control group,with 43 cases in each group.The control group was given electroacupuncture at Baliao points and routine rehabilitation treatment.On the basis of the treatment of the control group,the observation group was treated with Jingui Shenqi Wan Decoction for four weeks.After four weeks of treatment,the clinical efficacy of the two groups was evaluated,and the changes of Modified Barthel Index(MBI)score,daily urination and urodynamic indexes of the two groups were observed before and after treatment.The changes of serum superoxide dismutase(SOD)level were compared before and after treatment between the two groups.Results(1)The total effective rate was 95.35％(41/43)in the observation group and 79.07％(34/43)in the control group.The curative effect of the observation group was superior to that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).(2)After treatment,the daily urination conditions of the two groups of patients,including the average daily urination times,the average daily single urination volume and the average daily urinary incontinence times,were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the improvement of the average daily urination times,the average daily single urination volume and the average daily urinary incontinence times in the observation group were significantly superior to those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,the urodynamic indexes including maximum bladder capacity,maximum urinary flow rate,residual urine volume,bladder compliance,maximum urethral pressure and detrusor pressure in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the improvement of maximum bladder capacity,maximum urinary flow rate,residual urine volume,bladder compliance,maximum urethral pressure and detrusor pressure in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,the level of serum SOD in the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the improvement in the observation group was superior to that in the control group,the difference being significant(P＜0.05).(5)After treatment,the MBI scores of the two groups were significantly improved(P＜0.05),and the improvement of MBI scores in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture at Baliao points combined with Jingui Shenqi Wan Decoction in the treatment of PSNB of kidney-yang deficiency type can significantly improve the urination function of patients,effectively improve the urodynamic indexes of patients,down-regulate the serum SOD level of patients,and improve the quality of daily life of patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features,gene mutation profile,efficacy and prognostic factors of primary extranodal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(EN-DLBCL).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for 382 patients with primary EN-DLBCL with complete clinical data who were treated in West China Hospital from January 2013 to January 2023,and their clinical characteristics,gene mutation profile,efficacy and prognostic factors were analyzed.Results:The median age of the 382 patients with EN-DLBCL was 56 (18-89 )years old.The male-to-female ratio was 1.12∶1,and the most common primary sites were gastrointestinal tract (31.7％),Wechsler ring (19. 1％)and breast gland (7.1％).A total of 51 gene mutations were fund,and the most common frequencies of gene mutations were TP53 (32.5％),MYD88 (32.5％),and CD79B (30.0％).The median follow-up was 63 months,and the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS)rate was 74.5％ and the 5-year overall survival (OS)rate was 89.6％. The adverse factors on PFS were as follows:>1 extranodal sites involvement (P<0.001),P53≥50％(P<0.001),hyper double expression(hDEL)of C-myc>50％/Bcl-2>70％(P<0.001).The adverse factors affecting the OS of patients were as follows:>1 extranodal sites involvement (P<0.001),P53≥50％(P<0.001),hDEL(P<0.001). Chemotherapy combined with local radiotherapy could improve PFS (P=0.041)and OS (P=0.003),while R-CHOP+X (molecule agents as BTKi、HDACi、Lenalidomide)failed to show a significant difference in PFS (P=0.075)and OS (P=0.767 ).Among the 40 patients who underwent next-generation sequencing at high risk,there was no significant in PFS (P=0.849)and OS (P=0.500)of patients with positive MYD88 and/or CD79B mutations (MCD subtype)treated with BTKi and patients with negative MYD88 and CD79B mutations.Conclusion:Primary EN-DLBCL can involve multiple organs or tissue sites.TP53,MYD88,and CD79B are the most common gene mutations.The efficacy of BTKi in patients with positive MCD subtypes at intermediate and high risk is not inferior to that in MCD-negative control patients.
