Objective To explore the causal relationship between immune cells and heart failure (HF), and the mediating role of serum metabolites, in order to identify potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Methods We employed a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis method based on genome-wide association study (GWAS) data, analyzing the direct and indirect effects of 731 types of immune cells and 1 400 metabolites on HF. We selected valid instrumental variables and conducted statistical analyses using R software. The primary analysis was performed using the inverse variance weighted method, supplemented by MR-Egger analysis and weighted median method. The stability of the results was assessed through tests such as Cochran’s Q test. Results Our research found a negative causal relationship between PD-L1 on CD14−CD16+ and HF. Sensitivity analysis supported this result. The reverse MR analysis did not find an effect of HF on PD-L1 on CD14−CD16+, indicating that PD-L1 on CD14−CD16+ might play a unidirectional role in reducing the risk of HF. Further mediation MR analysis showed that PD-L1 on CD14−CD16+ might influence the risk of HF onset by regulating the levels of sphingomyelin (d17:1/14:0, d16:1/15:0), with a mediation effect ratio of 6.7%. Conclusion PD-L1 on CD14−CD16+ may reduce the risk of HF by elevating the levels of sphingomyelin (d17:1/14:0, d16:1/15:0), which provides a new perspective for understanding the pathogenesis of HF.

OBJECTIVE To form an expert consensus on the clinical application of parenteral direct thrombin inhibitors （DTIs） in patients during the perioperative period. METHODS Led by Sichuan Academy of Medical Sciences & Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital （the Affiliated Hospital of UESTC）， a multidisciplinary working group was established. Through literature review and the Delphi method， clinical questions related to the rational perioperative use of parenteral DTIs were identified. A structured design was adopted using the “Population-Intervention-Comparison-Outcome” framework； systematic searches were conducted in CNKI， Medline， Embase and other databases. Relevant evidence from randomized controlled trials and cohort studies was included and synthesized. Evidence quality was assessed using the Grades of Recommendations Assessment，Development and Evaluation （GRADE） approach， and recommendations were formulated through multiple rounds of Delphi surveys and expert consensus meetings. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS Seven recommendations （each with an expert consensus rate exceeding 90%） on the use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative patients were developed. These recommendations specify drug selection， dosing ranges， key monitoring points， and safety management strategies for parenteral DTIs in various scenarios， including the perioperative period of ventricular assist device implantation， the perioperative period of cardiac surgery， perioperative patients with lower-extremity atherosclerotic disease， the perioperative period of percutaneous coronary intervention in patients with acute coronary syndrome， the perioperative period of carotid artery stenting in patients with carotid stenosis， the perioperative period of patients with right heart thrombosis， and patients who develop related thrombosis and dysfunction after a central venous catheter insertion. In addition， warning and management pathways for perioperative bleeding and thrombotic events were proposed. This expert consensus， which is formulated based on the best available evidence， provides evidence-based guidance for standardized and individualized use of parenteral DTIs in perioperative period.

Since its emergence in the 1980s, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has caused a global pandemic, posing a severe threat to human life and health as well as social development. Although pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) effectively curbs HIV transmission and antiretroviral therapy (ART) significantly extends the lifespan of patients, vaccines remain a pivotal tool for blocking transmission and ending the pandemic. The high genetic variability of HIV-1, the glycan shield of its envelope glycoproteins, and the long-term persistence of latent reservoirs have repeatedly led to bottlenecks in traditional vaccine strategies. In recent years, mRNA technology has offered a novel approach to addressing these challenges, leveraging advantages such as sequence programmability, short production cycles, native conformational expression of antigens, and self-adjuvant effects. In recent years, mRNA vaccine technology has emerged as a transformative solution to longstanding vaccinology challenges, characterized by its sequence programmability, rapid production cycles, native conformational antigen expression, and intrinsic self-adjuvanting properties. Unlike traditional platforms reliant on pathogen culture or recombinant proteins, mRNA vaccines can be expeditiously designed and updated based solely on viral genomic sequences. Lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-encapsulated mRNA facilitates endogenous antigen expression and presentation, simultaneously eliciting potent humoral and cellular immune responses. Within this landscape, self-amplifying mRNA (saRNA) further extends in vivo antigen expression to enhance the persistence of immune responses. Moreover, the LNP delivery system not only protects mRNA from degradation and mediates endosomal escape but also synergizes with mRNA to optimize immune activation via self-adjuvant effects. Importantly, mRNA platforms circumvent the pre-existing immunity associated with viral vectors and the genomic integration risks of DNA vaccines, positioning them as a cornerstone for global pandemic preparedness. This review systematically delineates recent advances in mRNA technology for HIV-1 vaccine development, focusing on four pivotal research frontiers. First, mRNA innovations building upon the RV144 trial optimize antigens through codon modification and multivalent designs to induce more durable and broad-spectrum immunity. Second, particulate mRNA vaccine strategies, utilizing virus-like particles (VLPs) and ferritin nanoparticles, achieve in situ antigen self-assembly, significantly enhancing B cell activation and reducing infection risks in non-human primate models. Third, germline-targeting mRNA vaccines address the low-affinity barrier of broadly neutralizing antibody (bNAp) precursors, efficiently activating rare precursor B cells and promoting affinity maturation. Fourth, therapeutic mRNA vaccines offer unique advantages for an HIV functional cure; combining immunogens with mRNA-encoded adjuvants potentiates cellular immunity, while LNP-mediated “shock-and-kill” strategies specifically activate latent reservoirs to guide immune clearance. Comparative analyses with traditional platforms reveal that mRNA technology redefines antigen production and presentation, simulating chronic infection through sustained expression and enabling dual-pathway presentation via endogenous synthesis. Furthermore, we explore the mechanistic innovations of mRNA vaccines in inducing bNAps: sustained in vivo production prolongs the activation window for precursor B cells and maintains germinal center (GC) reactions; endogenously expressed antigens adopt native conformations to expose conserved epitopes; and self-adjuvanting effects modulate the functions of antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and follicular helper T cells (Tfh), driving somatic hypermutation and affinity maturation. We also address critical clinical translation challenges, including immune durability, adaptability to special populations, and large-scale LNP manufacturing, while proposing targeted optimization strategies. In conclusion, this review establishes a theoretical framework for utilizing mRNA technology to overcome HIV-1 immune escape, transitioning from a descriptive paradigm to a problem-solving-based synthesis of evidence. By integrating preclinical and early clinical data, we bridge the gap between basic design and translational verification. mRNA technology is poised to become a central pillar inHIV-1 prevention and therapy, providing a robust toolset to achieve the global goal of ending the AIDS pandemic and offering a blueprint for vaccine development against other recalcitrant infectious diseases.

According to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） theory， impaired spleen transportation function disrupts nutrient distribution， causing metabolic accumulation of lipids that transform into pathogenic phlegm-dampness. These pathological factors disseminate through the San Jiao and obstruct meridian pathways， ultimately forming the pathogenesis described as "all disorders involve phlegm". Phlegm and dampness share common pathogenic origins but manifest distinct clinical manifestations. Dampness， as the precursor， may congeal into phlegm， while existing phlegm accumulation can further exacerbate dampness stagnation， thereby establishing a self-perpetuating pathological cycle. Modern medical research has confirmed that the essence of "phlegm-dampness" syndrome is closely associated with energy metabolism disorders， serving as a common pathological basis for metabolic syndrome， type 2 diabetes mellitus， atherosclerosis， and other major chronic diseases. As a crucial vehicle for medical experimental research， disease-syndrome combination animal models serve as an indispensable means to advance the modernization of TCM. Currently， based on classical theories such as "rich and greasy foods produce phlegm" and "physical coldness combined with cold consumption causes external pathogens to invade the skin and hair， thereby generating internal dampness"， researchers primarily employ two paradigms to construct animal models of phlegm-turbidity， dampness obstruction， and phlegm-dampness syndromes： the first involves simulating TCM etiological factors （through methods like dietary irregularities， imblanace between work and rest， and combined internal-external dampness exposure）， while the second combines disease with syndrome differentiation （inducing pathological changes through physical， chemical， or biological interventions）. Through comprehensive evaluation incorporating macroscopic observation and microscopic index detection， model animals undergo systematic biological and pathological assessment， with further syndrome type verification achieved via the "prescription-based syndrome detection" approach. However， existing models still exhibit significant deficiencies in both the standardization of modeling methodologies and the systematization of evaluation criteria. This paper reviews the strategies for constructing "phlegm-dampness" syndrome animal models and their corresponding evaluation indices， focusing on the pathological correlations among different modeling approaches. The aim is to provide methodological guidance for research on TCM syndromes related to "phlegm-dampness" syndrome and to support the development of TCM therapies for resolving phlegm and eliminating dampness. This study not only contributes to advancing the standardization of TCM syndrome research but also provides crucial technical support for the modernization of TCM.

AIM To investigate the mechanism of Jiedu Yizhi Formula on cognitive function and neuroinflammation in a mouse model of Alzheimer's disease(AD).METHODS 50 APP/PS1 double transgenic mice were randomly divided into the model group,the donepezil group,and the low-dose,moderate-dose,and high-dose Jiedu Yizhi Formula group(1.78,3.56 and 7.12 g/kg),with 10 mice in each group,in contrast to the 10 WT mice of the blank group.Following anesthesia administration and 8-week oral gavage regimen with respective drugs,all mice underwent final tissue sample collection.The mice had their learning and memory ability assessed by Morris water maze and nesting behavior scores;their pathology of brain tissue and Aβ expression observed using HE,Nissl and IHC staining;their polarization of microglia and the expression of inflammatory factors in hippocampal tissue detected by IF and ELISA;their hippocampal expression of PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway detected by RT-qPCR and Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the blank group,the model group had lower scores in total swimming distance,frequency in crossing the platform,residence time in the target quadrant,and nesting behavior scores(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);prolonged evasion latency(P＜0.01);more disorganized arrangement of pyramidal cells,solidification and deep staining,unclear demarcation,irregular cell shapes,reduction of Nyctinidia,and increased Aβ deposition in the brain tissue(P＜0.01);elevated expression of hippocampal microglia M1-type markers CD16/32 and lba-1(P＜0.01);decreased levels of M2-type marker CD206(P＜0.05);elevated levels of TNF-α and IL-1β(P＜0.01);decreased expressions of IL-13 and IL-4(P＜0.01);and decreased levels of PI3K,Akt and mTOR mRNA,and reduced p-PI3K,p-Akt and p-mTOR protein expressions(P＜0.01).Compared to the model group,the donepezil group and the Jiedu Yizhi Formula groups showed statistically significant improvements in the aforementioned indexes(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),with the magnitude of improvement being higher in the high-dose Jiedu Yizhi Formula group.CONCLUSION Jiedu Yizhi Formula suppresses microglia Ml-type polarization while enhancing M2-type polarization via activation the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway,which subsequently reduces inflammatory cytokine secretion.This mechanism attenuates Aβ deposition in brain tissues and ameliorates cognitive dysfunction in AD mouse models.

Defensive medicine is a complex clinical decision-making phenomenon caused by the change of medical system and the generalization of medical risk.Based on the multi-dimensional driving perspective decon-structs defensive medicine into three types:quality improvement behaviorassurance behavior and avoidance behaviorintegrates event system theory,affective event theory,social cognition theory,self-worth orientation the-oryand builds a multi-dimensional driving chain of"environment-event-emotion-cognitive-attitudinal behavior".Systematically deconstruct the formation mechanism of defensive medicine.The multi-dimensional driving analysis shows that the intensitytime and space of the event jointly trigger the behavior adjustment;Emotional factors af-fect decision-making directly or indirectly through attitude mediating;Environmentcognition and behavior interacted with each other to form a cycle.Behavior is differentiated by attitudinal orientation.On this basis collaborative gover-nance strategies such as optimizing dispute handling mechanismcreating doctor-patient trust atmosphereand im-proving value incentive system are proposed to provide theoretical support and practical path for improving doc-tor-patient relationship and medical quality.

Objective:To analyze the predictive role of WT1 expression levels pre-and early post-transplantation on relapse and overall survival(OS)in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)during their first complete remission(CR1).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 107 adult AML patients who underwent allo-HSCT during their CR1 at our center between May 2012 and December 2021.The predictive role of bone marrow WT1 expression levels before transplantation and at 3 and 6 months post-transplantation on relapse and OS was explored in combination with relevant clinical factors.Results:The median follow-up time for the 107 patients was 70(range:11-117)months.Among the patients,15 cases died.Kaplan-Meier survial analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival(OS)rate was 85.0％.20 patients experienced relapse,with a median time to relapse of 8(range:0.5-44)months and a l-year cumulative relapse rate of 13.1％.The overall median value of WT1 before transplantation,3 months after transplantation,and 6 months after transplantation was 0.26％(range:0％-23.64％),with an upper quartile value of 0.74％.No statistically significant differences in WT1 expression levels were observed among the pre-transplantation,3-month post-transplantation,and 6-month post-transplantation time points(P=0.227).Univariate analysis showed that patients with WT1 levels＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a higher 1-year relapse rate(P=0.029)and lower 3-year OS rate(P＜0.001)compared to patients with WT1 levels ≤0.74％.Other significant factors affecting 1-year relapse included stem cell source(P=0.041)and chronic graft-versus-host disease(cGVHD)(P=0.013).For 3-year OS,additional influencing factors were genetic high risk(P=0.048)and stem cell source(P=0.016).Multivariate analysis revealed that WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a trend to affect 1-year relapse rate(HR=3.309,95％CI:0.958-11.431,P=0.058),while the absence of cGVHD was an independent risk factor for 1-year relapse(HR=3.473,95％CI:0.749-16.100,P=0.037).Only WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation was an independent risk factor for 3-year OS(HR=6.886,95％CI:2.402-19.738,P＜0.001).Conclusion:High WT1 expression level at 3 months post-transplantation in AML patients undergoing allo-HSCT during CR1 affects the 1-year relapse rate and 3-year OS,and is an independent risk factor affecting 3-year OS.These findings suggest that dynamic monitoring of WT1 expression levels has certain value in prognostic assessment of AML patients who received allo-HSCT during CR1.

Objective To explore the regulatory effect of moderate intensity aerobic exercise on glu-cose and lipid metabolism disordersafter immune stimulation in high-fat diet induced insulin resistance(IR)mice by inducing tolerance of trained immunity.Methods Eighteen of 70 male C57BL/6 male mice were randomly selected as the control group(CON group),while the remaining mice were subjected to high-fat diet intervention(HFD group)for 8 weeks.After modeling,six of the CON group and HFD group were measured their glucose and lipid metabolism and inflammation levels.The remaining mice in the HFD group were randomly divided into HFD sedentary group(HS group)and HFD exer-cise group(HE group),each of 16.The HE groups underwent a daily 60-minute running on a hori-zontal treadmill at 12 m/min,5 days a week for 8 weeks.After that,the CON,HS and HE groups were randomly divided into an immune stimulation group(lipopolysaccharides,LPS group)and a con-trol group(phosphate buffered saline,PBS group),with 6 in CON-PBS and CON-LPS groups,and 8 in HS-PBS,HS-LPS,HE-PBS and HE-LPS groups.The LPS group received intraperitoneal injec-tion of LPS as an immune stimulus,and were taken samples 24 hours after intervention.During the intervention period,the body weight,food intake,fasting blood glucose(FBG),glucose tolerance,and insulin tolerance were tested for all groups.Then,the serum blood lipid level was tested.More-over,the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1 β(IL-1β)and interleukin-10(IL-10)in serum were detected by using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,while the protein expression of IL-1β,IL-10,induciblenitricoxidesynthase(iNOS)andarginase-1(Arg-1)were measured by using Western Blot.Results(1)After 8 weeks of high-fat diet intervention,compared with the CON group,there was a significant increase in the body weight,food intake,and FBG,the level of TNF-α and IL-1β in serum and expressions of IL-1β and iNOS in liver,skeletal muscle and adipose tissue,but a significant decrease in glucose and insulin tolerance,the level of anti-in-flammatory factor IL-10,as well as IL-10 and Arg-1 in liver and Arg-1 in adipose tissues in group HFD(P<0.01,P<0.05).(2)After 8 weeks of diet intervention,the body weight of group HS-PBS was still significantly higher than group CON-PBS(P<0.01).However,no significant differences were found between group CON-PBS and HS-PBS in other indicators(P>0.05).After LPS intervention,the food intake of both CON-LPS and HS-LPS groups was significantly lower than the corresponding PBS group(P<0.05).However,the levels of FBG,TG,TC,LDL-C,TNF-α and IL-1β in serum,IL-1β and iNOS in liver and adipose tissues,and iNOS in skeletal muscles of group HS-LPS were signif-icantly higher compared with group HS-PBS and CON-LPS(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the levels of IL-10 in serum,skeletal muscles and adipose tissues,and Arg-1 in skeletal muscles and adipose tissues of group HS-LPS decreased significantly compared with group HS-PBS and CON-LPS(P<0.05).(3)Af-ter simultaneous aerobic exercise intervention,there were no significant differences between group HE-LPS and HE-PBS in FBG,TC,LDL-C,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-10 in serum,as well as IL-1β,iN-OS and IL-10 in the liver,skeletal muscles and adipose tissues(P>0.05).Moreover,thelevels of FBG,TG,TC,TNF-α,IL-1β in serum,and IL-1β and iNOS in the liver,skeletal muscle and adi-pose tissue decreased significantly in group HE-LPS compared with group HS-LPS(P<0.05).Howev-er,the levels of IL-10 in the serum and liver,and IL-10 and Arg-1 in skeletal muscles and adi-pose tissues increased significantly in group HE-LPS compared with group HS-LPS(P<0.05).Conclu-sion Eight-week aerobic exercise can effectively relieve the glucose and lipid metabolism disorder after immune stimulation in IR mice,which may be related to the stimulation of immunologic tolerance in innate immune cells,thereby reducing the excessive inflammatory response caused by secondary im-mune stimulation.
