ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Wumeiwan suppresses the development and progression of colorectal cancer(CRC) through the regulation of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming, thereby providing new experimental evidence for the prevention and treatment of CRC. MethodsA total of 120 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the blank group, model group, Wumeiwan high-, medium-, and low-dose groups(54, 27, 13.5 g·kg-1), and the mesalazine group(0.01 g·kg-1), with 20 mice in each group. Except for the blank group, all mice were subjected to azoxymethane(AOM)/dextran sulfate sodium(DSS) treatment to establish an inflammation-associated CRC model. One week after AOM injection, mice in the treatment groups received intragastric administration of the designated drugs, while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of purified water, continuing until 20 d after the intervention endpoint. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe colonic histopathological alterations, and immunohistochemistry for vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) was performed to evaluate neovascularization and tumor invasion. Metabolomics combined with Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) and metabolite set enrichment analysis(MSEA) was applied to identify key CRC-related metabolic pathways, which were further validated by transcriptomic Gene Ontology(GO) enrichment and gene heatmap analysis. Subsequently, Western blot was performed to determine the expression levels of core proteins in these pathways, and immunofluorescence was used to analyze their localization and co-expression patterns in tissues, thereby elucidating the mechanism of Wumeiwan from multiple biological dimensions. ResultsCompared with the blank group, mice in the model group exhibited a significant decrease in body weight and a significant increase in the disease activity index(DAI) score(P<0.05), with pronounced colonic mucosal damage accompanied by aggravated tumor invasion. Compared with the model group, Wumeiwan intervention markedly improved body weight loss and reduced DAI score, attenuated mucosal injury, and significantly decreased VEGF expression level(P<0.05). Multi-omics analysis revealed that differential metabolites and genes across groups were commonly enriched in fatty acid metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis, and other lipid-related pathways. Relative to the blank group, the model group showed significant upregulation levels of fatty acid synthesis-related genes, including sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1(SREBP1), fatty acid synthase(FASN), stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1(SCD1), as well as saturated fatty acids(P<0.05). Compared with the model group, treatment with Wumeiwan significantly reduced the expression of key genes involved in fatty acid metabolic pathways, including SREBP1, FASN, and SCD1(P<0.05). Western blot results further confirmed that proteins in this pathway were significantly elevated in the model group, whereas they were markedly downregulated following Wumeiwan treatment(P<0.05). Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated enhanced co-localization of SREBP1 with the cancer-associated fibroblast(CAF) marker α-smooth muscle actin(SMA) in the model group, whereas this co-localization signal was attenuated after Wumeiwan intervention(P<0.05). ConclusionWumeiwan can improve survival outcomes and alleviate colonic pathological damage in CRC mice, its therapeutic mechanism may be closely associated with the regulation of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming mediated by the SREBP1/FASN/SCD1 signaling pathway.

Objective:
This study aimed to explore the correlation between balance function and core muscle activation in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), compared to healthy individuals.
Methods:
A total of 24 AIS patients and 25 healthy controls were recruited. The limits of stability (LOS) test were conducted to assess balance function, while surface electromyography was used to measure the activity of core muscles, including the internal oblique, external oblique, and multifidus. Diaphragm thickness was measured using ultrasound during different postural tasks. Center of pressure (COP) displacement and trunk inclination distance were also recorded during the LOS test.
Results:
AIS patients showed significantly greater activation of superficial core muscles, such as the internal and external oblique muscles, compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Diaphragm activation was lower in AIS patients during balance tasks (p < 0.01). Although no significant difference was observed in COP displacement between the groups, trunk inclination was significantly greater in the AIS group during certain tasks (p < 0.05).
Conclusion
These findings suggest distinct postural control patterns in AIS patients, highlighting the importance of targeted interventions to improve balance and core muscle function in this population.

This paper systematically summarizes the practical experience of the 2025 Dingri earthquake emergency medical rescue in Tibet. It analyzes the requirements for earthquake medical rescue under conditions of high-altitude hypoxia, low temperature, and low air pressure. The paper provides a detailed discussion on the strategic layout of earthquake medical rescue at the national level, local government level, and through social participation. It covers the construction of rescue organizational systems, technical systems, material support systems, and information systems. The importance of building rescue teams is emphasized. In high-altitude and cold conditions, rapid response, scientific decision-making, and multi-party collaboration are identified as key elements to enhance rescue efficiency. By optimizing rescue organizational structures, strengthening the development of new equipment, and promoting telemedicine technologies, the precision and effectiveness of medical rescue can be significantly improved, providing important references for future similar disaster rescues.

The circadian clock plays a critical role in regulating various physiological processes, including gene expression, metabolic regulation, immune response, and the sleep-wake cycle in living organisms. Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are crucial regulatory mechanisms to maintain the precise oscillation of the circadian clock. By modulating the stability, activity, cell localization and protein-protein interactions of core clock proteins, PTMs enable these proteins to respond dynamically to environmental and intracellular changes, thereby sustaining the periodic oscillations of the circadian clock. Different types of PTMs exert their effects through distincting molecular mechanisms, collectively ensuring the proper function of the circadian system. This review systematically summarized several major types of PTMs, including phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, SUMOylation and oxidative modification, and overviewed their roles in regulating the core clock proteins and the associated pathways, with the goals of providing a theoretical foundation for the deeper understanding of clock mechanisms and the treatment of diseases associated with circadian disruption.
