Aromatic Chinese medicinal essential oils are volatile oils extracted from aromatic Chinese herbs， which can prevent and treat respiratory infectious diseases through multiple synergistic mechanisms including pathogen inhibition， immune regulation， and inflammatory response regulation. Essential oils are primarily used externally on the body to prevent infections and alleviate symptoms through methods like inhalation， smearing， topical application， bathing， gargling or as a suppository. They can also be utilized in the environment for disinfection and air purification， through methods like diffusion， vaporization， or spraying. The external application of essential oils extracted from Chinese aromatic herbs has the advantages of convenience， quick absorption， and simultaneous influence on both the body and mind. However， there are still challenges and deficiencies in aspects such as the positioning of functions， indications， safety， and the research on the mechanism of action. It has been proposed to combine the theory of aromatic Chinese medicinals with the characteristics of essential oils， and formulate prescriptions of Chinese medicinal essential oils under the principles of traditional Chinese medicine syndrome differentiation， and prevent and treat respiratory infectious diseases efficiently， accurately， and safely， thereby expanding the clinical application of aromatic Chinese medicinals and the preventive theory of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective To explore the molecular mechanism by which SOS Ras/Rac guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1-intronic transcript 1(SOS1-IT1)affects enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)protein expression in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2.Methods Lentiviral transfection of short hairpin RNA(shRNA)and overexpression plasmid were used in Ishikawa and RL95-2 cell lines to knock down and overexpress SOS1-IT1.The mechanism of EZH2 expression regulation was studied using Real-time PCR,Western blotting,and chromatin immunoprecipitation.Results The expression of SOS1-IT1 and EZH2 genes was positively correlated in endometrial cancer tissues.Knocking down SOS1-IT1 significantly reduces the expression of EZH2,inhibited the proliferation and migration of Ishikawa and RL95-2 cells,and could reduced the acetylation of histone H3 at position 27(H3K27)and the enrichment of CREB binding protein(CBP)in the EZH2 gene promoter region.Overexpression of SOS1-IT1 could increased the expression of EZH2 and enhance the acetylation of H3K27 and the enrichment of CBP.CBP could bind to SOS1-IT1 RNA,and this binding ability was weakened when CBP was knocked down.Conclusion SOS1-IT1 can promote the expression level of EZH2 in endometrial cancer cells Ishikawa and RL95-2 by regulating the acetylation modification level of the EZH2 gene promoter region,thereby affecting the proliferation and migration ability of endometrial cancer cells.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of Pseudomonas aeruginosa peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis(PaeP).Methods Peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis(PDAP)patients who were followed up in the nephrology outpatient department of a hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively.According to bacterial culture results,patients were divided into the PaeP group and non-PaeP group.Clinical characteristics of PaeP patients and antimicrobial susceptibility testing results of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were analyzed,clinical manifestations,laboratory test results,and prognosis of two groups of patients were compared.Results A total of 124 peritoneal dialysis patients were included in analysis,164 cases of peritoni-tis occurred,16 cases were in the PaeP group and 148 in the non-PaeP group.11 patients developed 16 episodes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection,accounting for 8.9％of PDAP patients.Among them,4 patients had peritoneal dialysis catheter exit-site infection,with 5 recurrence cases,1 case cured,1 case died,and 9 cases were extubated.Among the extubated patients,1 withdrew dialysis,3 were recovered to peritoneal dialysis after hemodialysis,5 changed to permanently hemodialysis,with a technical failure rate of 54.5％.Compared with the non-PaeP group,patients in the PaeP group had a shorter dialysis time(13.83±4.92 vs 38.53±35.77 months).During the infection period,C-reactive protein levels were higher(96.61±6.17 vs 45.87±44.65 mg/L),while albumin levels were lower(25.62±4.42 vs 29.46±8.25 g/L).At the onset of infection,the proportion of polymorphonuclear cells in perito-neal dialysis fluid was relatively higher.On the 5th day of treatment,the negative conversion rate of white blood cell count in peritoneal dialysis fluid was relatively low.Differences were all statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The cure rate of patients in the PaeP group was lower than that in the non-PaeP group,the technical failure rate was higher than that in the non-PaeP group,both with statistically significant differences(both P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the mortality between two groups of patients(P＞0.05).Conclusion PaeP patients have severe clinical manifestations,poor clinical treatment prognosis,high recurrence and extubation rates.For patients with repeated episodes,resetting and replacing the tunnel after extubation is an effective means to re-duce technical failures.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To study the expression of SPOP in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)and its effect on proliferation,apoptosis and cycle of AML cells.Methods:RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of SPOP mRNA in bone marrow samples of patients with newly diagnosed AML and normal controls.The stable overexpression of SPOP in AML cell lines THP-1 and U937 were constructed by liposome transfection.The effect of SPOP on cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8,and the effect of SPOP on apoptosis and cell cycle was detected by flow cytometry.The expressions of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and apoptotic protein Bax,Caspase3 were detected by Western blot.Results:The median expression level of SPOP mRNA in normal control group was 0.993 1(0.6303,1.433),while that in AML group was 0.522 1(0.242 2,0.723 7).The expression level of SPOP in AML group was significantly lower than that in normal control group(P＜0.001).After the overexpression of SPOP,the proportion of apoptotic cells in the U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group was 10.9％±0.3％and 4.6％±0.15％,which were higher than 8.9％±0.3％and 3.0％±0.30％in the Empty Vector group,respectively(both P＜0.05).The expression of Caspase3 in U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group was 1.154±0.086 and 1.2±0.077,which were higher than 1 in Empty Vector group,respectively(both P＜0.05).The ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 in U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group was 1.328±0.057 and 1.669±0.15,which were higher than 1 in Empty Vector group,respectively(both P＜0.05).In the cell proliferation experiment,the number of cells in the U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group were both slightly lower than those in the Empty Vector group,but the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).In the cell cycle experiment,the proportion of G1cells in the U937 overexpression group and THP-1 overexpression group were both slightly higher than those in the Empty Vector group,but the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion:SPOP can promote the apoptosis of leukemic cells,and its mechanism may be related to down-regulation of Bcl-2 expression and up-regulation of Bax and Caspase3 expression.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and safety of a new conditioning regimen with chidamide and BEAM for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(AHSCT)in patients with lymphoma.Methods:Medical records and further follow-up data from 85 patients with lymphoma from May 2015 to September 2020 in our hospital were retrospectively collected and analyzed.Results:Among 85 patients,52 cases accepted BEAM regimen and 33 cases accepted CBEAM followed by AHSCT.In CBEAM group,18 patients(54.5％)received AHSCT as salvage therapy,while only 26.9％(14 cases)for salvage in BEAM group(P＜0.01).CBEAM conditioning resulted in shorter neutrophil engraftment of 2 days,while no significant difference was found in platelet engraftment.Although the incidence of liver impairment was higher in CBEAM group(12.1％),the grade of impairment was only Ⅰ to Ⅱ.The two conditioning regimens both achieved good complete remission rate of over 90％,and no transplant-related death occurred.The median follow-up time in the CBEAM group was 18(12,22)months,and 39(20,59)months in the BEAM group.There were no significantly differences in 2-year progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)rate between the two groups(P＞0.05).In patients with refractory or relapsed non-Hodgkin lymphoma,the 2-year PFS rate after transplantation in BEAM group and CBEAM group was 74.1％and 92.9％,respectively(P＞0.05),indicating that chidamide may have certain advantages in prolonging PFS.Conclusion:CBEAM conditioning regimen has a good efficacy and safety in lymphoma patients before AHSCT,especially in refractory and relapsed non-Hodgkin lymphoma patients,suggesting that it could serve as an alternative conditioning regimen prior to AHSCT for lymphoma.
