OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of baicalin （BC） on insulin resistance in rats with gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM） and its underlying mechanism based on the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 （SUV39H1）/histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation （H3K9me3） axis. METHODS A GDM rat model was established by a combination of a high-fat diet and streptozotocin injection. The successfully modeled rats were divided into the GDM group， BC low-dose group， BC high-dose group， and high-dose of BC+AMPK inhibitor （Compound C） group， with 10 rats in each group. Another 10 pregnant rats fed a normal diet served as the control group. Rats in each group were given corresponding drugs/normal saline intragastrically and/or intraperitoneally， once daily for 2 consecutive weeks. After the last administration， the levels of fasting blood glucose （FBG）， pancreatic function indexes [fasting insulin （FINS）， homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance （HOMA-IR）， insulin sensitivity index （ISI）]， blood lipid indexes （total cholesterol， triglyceride， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol）， liver function indexes （alanine transferase， aspartate transferase， alkaline phosphatase）， inflammatory indicators （C-reactive protein， interleukin-1β， interleukin-6）， metabolic regulatory protein [complement-C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 3 （CTRP3）]， insulin sensitivity related factors [glucose transporter 4 （GLUT4）， adiponectin]， and oxidative stress indicators [superoxide dismutase （SOD）， catalase （CAT）， malondialdehyde （MDA）] were measured. Pathological changes in liver tissue were observed， and the expressions of proteins related to the AMPK/SUV39H1/H3K9me3 axis in liver tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with the GDM group， rats in the BC low- and high-dose groups showed varying degrees of improvement in pathological changes such as disordered cell arrangement， vacuolar degeneration， lipid deposition， and inflammatory cell infiltration in liver tissue. Their FBG and FINS levels， HOMA-IR， the levels of blood lipid indexes， liver function indexes， inflammatory indicators and MDA， and the expressions of SUV39H1 and H3K9me3 were significantly decreased or down-regulated， while metabolic regulatory protein， insulin sensitivity-related factors and AMPK protein phosphorylation levels were significantly increased （ P ＜0.05）. The improvement was more significant in the BC high-dose group （ P ＜0.05）. Compound C could significantly reverse the ameliorative effects of high-dose BC on the above quantitative indicators （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS BC can significantly reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory responses， increase serum levels of CTRP3， GLUT4 and adiponectin， thereby improving insulin resistance in GDM rats. These effects may be related to the activation of AMPK and inhibition of SUV39H1-mediated H3K9me3 modification.

ObjectiveTo explore the effects of the Tai Chi training on bone density， bone turnover markers， and heart rate variability for people with high-risk osteoporosis， and to provide evidence for the prevention of osteoporosis at early stage. MethodsSixty-six cases of people with high risk of osteoporosis were included， and they were divided into 33 cases each in the intervention group and the control group using the random number table method. The control group received osteoporosis health education three times a week， and the intervention group received Tai Chi training under the guidance of a trainer three times a week for 40 mins each time on the basis of the control group， and both groups were intervened for 12 weeks. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to measure the bone density of L₁~L₄ vertebrae， bilateral femoral necks and bilateral total hips in the two groups before and after the intervention； enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to determine bone turnover markers before and after the intervention， including pro-collagen type Ⅰ pro-amino-terminal prepropyl peptide （P1NP） and β-collagen type Ⅰ cross-linking carboxy-terminal peptide （β-CTX）. Seven cases with good compliance in the intervention group were selected. After wearing the heart rate sensor， they successively performed Tai Chi training and walking activities recommended by the guideline for 20 mins each， and the heart rate variability （HRV） during exercise was collected， including time-domain indexes such as standard deviation of normal sinus intervals （SDNN）， root-mean-square of the difference between adjacent RR intervals （RMSSD）， frequency-domain metrics such as low-frequency power （LF）， high-frequency power （HF）， and low-frequency/high-frequency power ratio （LF/HF）， as well as nonlinear metrics such as approximate entropy （ApEn）， sample entropy （SampEn）. ResultsFinally， 63 cases were included in the outcome analysis， including 30 cases in the intervention group and 33 cases in the control group. After the intervention， the differences of L₁~L₄ vertebrae， bone density of bilateral femoral neck and bilateral total hip in the intervention group were not statistically significant when compared with those before intervention （P＞0.05）， while the bone density of all parts of the control group decreased significantly compared with that before intervention （P＜0.05）， and the difference in the bone density of the L₁~L₄ vertebrae， bilateral femoral neck， and the right total hip before and after the intervention of the intervention group was smaller than that of the control group （P＜0.05）. The differences in P1NP and β-CTX between groups before and after intervention was not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. Compared with walking exercise， LF decreased， HF increased and LF/HF decreased during Tai Chi exercise （P＜0.05）； the time domain indexes and non-linear indexes between groups had no statistically significant difference （P＞0.05）. ConclusionTai Chi exercise can maintain lumbar， hip， and femoral bone density and improve sympathetic/parasympathetic balance in people at high risk for osteoporosis， but cannot significantly improve bone turnover markers.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Xinfeng capsules combined with chronic disease management of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） on rapid disease control and short-term prognosis of patients with rheumatoid arthritis （RA）. MethodsA total of 80 RA patients hospitalized in the Department of Rheumatology of The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine from January 2022 to March 2024 were enrolled and randomly divided into an observation group （40 cases） and a control group （40 cases）. The control group was treated with conventional methotrexate combined with standard chronic disease management， while the observation group was additionally treated with Xinfeng Capsules combined with TCM chronic disease management. The treatment course lasted 24 weeks. The outcomes were compared between two groups， including disease activity ［28-joint disease activity score （DAS28）， clinical disease activity index （CDAI）， simplified disease activity index （SDAI）］， visual analogue scale （VAS） for pain， TCM syndrome score， tender joint count （TJC）， swollen joint count （SJC）， morning stiffness duration， Health Assessment Questionnaire （HAQ）， Self-Rating Anxiety Scale （SAS）， Self-Rating Depression Scale （SDS）， American College of Rheumatology （ACR） 20%， 50% and 70% response rates （ACR20/50/70）， erythrocyte sedimentation rate （ESR）， high-sensitivity C-reactive protein （hs-CRP）， rheumatoid factor （RF）， anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody （CCP-Ab）， interleukin （IL）-6， IL-1β， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， and serum immunoglobulin G （IgG）. The Chronic Disease Self-Management Scale （CDSMS） was used to evaluate patients’ self-management ability， self-care ability， and nursing satisfaction. Patients were followed up for 12 weeks to assess prognosis， and COX regression analysis was performed to determine the impact on short-term prognosis. ResultsAfter treatment， TJC， SJC， morning stiffness duration， DAS28， CDAI， SDAI， VAS， TCM syndrome score， ESR， hs-CRP， RF， CCP-Ab， IL-6， IL-1β， TNF-α， IgG， HAQ， SAS， SDS， chronic disease self-management behavior， self-efficacy， and self-care ability all improved significantly in both groups compared with baseline （P<0.05，P<0.01）. Compared with the control group， the observation group showed more significant improvements in TJC， SJC， morning stiffness duration， DAS28， CDAI， SDAI， VAS， TCM syndrome score， ESR， IL-1β， IgG， HAQ， SAS， SDS， self-care ability， chronic disease self-management behavior， and self-efficacy （P<0.05 or P<0.01）. The ACR70 response rate and nursing satisfaction were significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group （P<0.01）. COX regression analysis showed that Xinfeng capsules combined with TCM chronic disease management reduced the risk of poor short-term prognosis in RA patients. ConclusionXinfeng capsules combined with TCM chronic disease management facilitates rapid disease control in RA patients， effectively improves short-term prognosis， and plays an important role in the treatment of the disease.

Albendazole-glucan particles(ABZ-GPS)and abendazole(ABZ)were used to treat secondary alveolar echinococ-cosis in mice.The therapeutic effects of ABZ-GPS on alveolar echinococcosis in vivo were evaluated,and the feasibility of using glucan particles as anti-hydatid drug carriers was further verified.Mice with echinococcosis were randomly divided into an ABZ group,glucan nanoparticle(GP)group,ABZ-GPS group,and control group.After four courses of administration with a final concentration of 50 mg/mL,the therapeutic effects of ABZ-GPS were evaluated on the basis of imaging,histopathological changes,ultrastructure,and immunology.After ABZ-GPS and ABZ administration,clear liver lesion tissue necrosis and large numbers of infiltrating lymphocytes were observed.Significant differences in the average cyst wet weight(t=7.83,P＜0.05),were observed between the ABZ-GPS group and ABZ group.Imaging revealed that ABZ-GPs were targeted to liver tissue.Pa-thology and ultrastructure analyses demonstrated that the alveolar hydatid cells in the liver in the control group and GP group grew well,and the vesicles were large,filled with cystic fluid,and translucent or transparent;the cyst wall tension was high;no calcification was observed;the stratum corneum and germinal layer were clear;and more fertile capsules and different num-bers of protocephalospora were present in the liver.In the ABZ group,the capsular cavity collapsed,and showed partial necro-sis and lymphocyte infiltration.In the ABZ-GP group,the corneum and germinal layer of echinococcus vesicles were difficult to identify,and we observed bulbous necrosis,central calcification,fibrous tissue hyperplasia,inflammatory cell infiltration,coarser,shorter or absent microvilli of the germinal layer,nuclear shrinkage,dissolution or disappearance,clear expansion of cytoplasmic microtubules,and myelin-like or vacuole-like changes.Therefore,ABZ-GPs showed good targeting and killing ac-tivity in vivo in mice with secondary alveolar coccosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of the culture supernatant of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii(F.prausnitzii)on intestinal barrier function and liver fibrosis progression in mice.Methods A total of 24 male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to three groups:normal control group(Control),liver fibrosis model group(Model),and model mice+F.prausnitzii supernatant group(Model+S).Hepatic fibrosis was induced by intraperitoneal injection of carbon tetrachloride in both the Model group and the Model+S group over a period of 10 weeks.Following a 2-week modeling period,the mice in the Model+S group were subjected to an 8-week treatment with bacterial supernatant.The colon and liver were analyzed for pathological morphology using HE staining.Additionally,impairment of intestinal barrier function was assessed by periodic acid schiff staining,ELISA,and fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran(FITC-Dextran)fluorescent probe.Changes in the gut microbiota structure were analyzed with 16S rDNA sequencing.The degree of liver fibrosis was assessed using sirius red staining,and the expression levels of markers associated with intestinal barrier function,liver fibrosis,and inflammation were measured using qPCR and ELISA.Results Compared with the Model group,the severity of intestinal damage and the expressions of pro-inflammatory factors in the Model+S group were decreased.Additionally,there was a significant increase in the expressions of multiple genes related to intestinal barrier function,as well as a decrease in the concentration of FITC-Dextran in peripheral blood and lipopolysaccharide in the liver(all P＜0.05),and there was an improvement in the composition of the gut microbiota.Furthermore,while the liver function and extent of liver fibrosis in the Model+S group did not show any significant differences compared to the Model group,there was a noticeable decrease in the infiltration of inflammatory cells within the liver.Additionally,the expressions of pro-inflammatory factors such as Tlr4,Il-6 and Tnf-α,and the concentration of IL-6 in the liver was significantly decreased(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The F.prausnitzii supernatant exhibits the potential to enhance intestinal barrier function and rectify gut microbiota imbalance in mice with liver fibrosis,thus reducing hepatic inflammation.However,it does not exert any significant effect on the progression of liver fibrosis.

Objective To explore a nomogram model based on clinical characteristics and immune indicators for predicting the efficacy of tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI)against chronic myeloid leukemia(CML).Methods Clinical data was retrospectively collected from 100 patients with CML treated with TKI between January 2021 and January 2023 in Tangshan Gongren Hospital.Patients were divided into the best response and warning/treatment failure groups according to therapeutic efficacy.Factors affecting therapeutic efficacy were analyzed using logistic regression analysis,and a nomogram model was constructed.Results The best response and warning/treatment failure groups showed significant differences in red blood cell distribution width(RDW),platelet count(PLT),ELTS score,Th 1/CD4+,Treg/CD4+ratio,white blood cell count,and absolute value of natural killer cells(P＜0.05).Logistic regression confirmed that the above indicators were influencing factors(P＜0.05),indicating that the model was meaningful,and had a high goodness of fit as well as high predictive value.Conclusion The nomogram model constructed based on RDW,PLT,and other factors can effectively predict the thera-peutic efficacy of AKI in treating CML.

Objective To establish a backpack-based field emergency medical rescue equipment system to enhance emergency rescue efficiency.Methods A backpack-based field emergency medical rescue equipment system was preliminarily constructed with the concept of medical treatment in echelons and prolonged field care(PFC)and the method of capability-based equipment need analysis;with the Delphi method 15 experts from relevant fields were invited to execute two rounds of questionnaire consultations,and the final equipment system was determined after the equipment varieties and quantities were revised based on the expert opinions.Results The response rate for the two rounds of expert questionnaire surveys was 100%.The experts'authority coefficients were 0.8734 and 0.87,respectively;Kendall coefficients were 0.232 and 0.345(both P<0.001),indicating statistically significant results.Ultimately,a backpack-based field emer-gency medical rescue equipment system comprising 15 backpacks and 158 individual pieces of equipment was established.Conclusion The established system demonstrates a certain degree of specificity and practicability,providing references for the equipment allocation and utilization of emergency medical rescue teams.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(10):17-22]

Objective To understand the current situation of the management of patients'self-provided infusion drugs in secondary and above general hospitals in China,and to provide a theoretical and practical basis for improving the management system.Methods The annual pharmacy professional quality control work survey conducted by the National Pharmaceutical Management Professional Quality Control Center was used to obtain information on the management of patients'self-provided infusion drugs in secondary and above general hospitals in 31 provinces(autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government)and the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps of Chinese mainland from 2020 to 2022,and was summarized and calculated using data-processing software.Results The total number of secondary and above general hospitals included in the analysis from 2020 to 2022 is 4 786,5 063 and 6 041,respectively.In 2022,compared with 2020,the percentage of hospitals allowing patients to use self-provided infused drugs decreased from 55.08％to 48.54％,the percentage of hospitals that have established a system for managing patients' self-provided drugs increased from 81.54％to 98.09％,and the percentage of hospitalized patients' use of self-provided drugs that are all documented in their medical orders increased from 79.76％to 90.72％.The types of drugs that hospitals allow patients to use for self-provided infusion are mainly antitumor drugs,the places where self-provided infusion drugs are dispensed are mainly clinical departments(wards),and the main source of self-provided infusion drugs is self-pickup by patients.Conclusion Hospitals should establish a management system for patients'self-provided drugs,strengthen the information management of self-provided infusion drugs,and ensure drug supply and medication safety for patients.

Objective To evaluate the effect of remimazolam on the incidence of postoperative delirium(POD)in elderly lung cancer patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 114 elderly patients who underwent unilateral thoracoscopic lung surgery at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from October 2024 to April 2025 were recruited in this trial.Patients were randomly assigned to remimazolam group(group R)and propofol group(group P).Anesthesia induction and maintenance were performed with remimazolam and propofol,respectively.In R group,0.5 mg of flumazenil was intravenously injected at the end of the surgery for specific antagonism.The incidence of delirium and Quality of Recovery-15(QoR-15)scores on the first and third postoperative days were compared between the two groups.Intraoperative hemodynamic parameters,total opi-oid dosage,fluid balance,tracheal tube extubation time after surgery,and the incidence of adverse reactions were recorded.Results There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in the incidence of POD or in QoR-15 scores(P>0.05).Compared with group P,patients in group R had a shorter extubation time(P<0.05),more stable hemodynamics,lower incidences of intra-operative hypotension and bradycardia,and reduced requirement for vasoactive drugs(P<0.05).The consumption of rescue analgesics in the post-anesthesia care unit(PACU)was also lower in group R(P<0.05).No significant differences were observed between the groups in the amounts of sufentanil and remifentanil administered,fluid balance,bispectral index(BIS)values,or the inci-dence of nausea and vomiting(P>0.05).Conclusion In elderly patients undergoing elective thoracoscopic sur-gery,remimazolam-based induction and maintenance of anesthesia did not significantly alter the incidence of POD or compromise postoperative recovery quality compared with propofol.However,the remimazolam group required fewer vasoactive agents and exhibited a shorter tracheal extubation time.
