AIM To investigate the effects of Xuesaitong Capsules(Panax notoginseng saponins)on ischemia/reperfusion injury in a mouse model of skin frostbite.METHODS The mice were randomly divided into the control group,the model group,the dexamethasone group(1 mg/kg),and the low-dose,medium-dose,and high-dose Xuesaitong Capsules groups(0.036,0.072,and 0.144 g/kg),with eight mice in each group.A frostbite model was established using a dry ice-cooled ceramic(ferrite)magnet.On the 2nd day after modeling,each group started its corresponding dosing by gavage for 14 consecutive days.The wound healing,histopathological changes,and serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),thromboxane B2(TXB2),6-keto-prostaglandin F1α(6-K-PGF1α),nitric oxide(NO)and endothelin(ET)were assessed using ELISA.The superoxide dismutase(SOD)activity and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels in skin tissues were measured biochemically.The protein expressions of tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-6,Toll-like receptor(TLR)4 and phosphorylated nuclear factor-KB p65(p-NF-κB p65)in skin tissues were determined by Western blot.Additionally,LncRNA H19 mRNA expression in skin tissues was evaluated using RT-qPCR.RESULTS After the final administration,compared with the control group,the model group exhibited partial scab detachment,wound healing,and larger wound areas;hyperkeratosis with incomplete keratinization,detachment of the dermis and subcutaneous tissue,partial loss of appendages,subcutaneous edema,and dilated,congested,and hemorrhagic stromal vessels with extensive lymphocyte infiltration revealed by the histopathological examination;elevated serum levels of hs-CRP,TXB2,and ET(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);decreased 6-K-PGF1α and NO levels(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);reduced SOD activity in skin tissues(P＜0.01);increased MDA levels(P＜0.01);and upregulated protein expressions of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,TLR4 and p-NF-κB p65,as well as LncRNA H19 mRNA expression(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the group intervened with high-dose Xuesaitong Capsules displayed reduced wound areas(P＜0.01);decreased serum levels of hs-CRP,TXB2 and ET(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);increased 6-K-PGF1α and NO levels(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);enhanced SOD activity(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);reduced MDA level in skin tissues(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and down-regulated TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,TLR4 and p-NF-κB p65 protein expressions and suppressed LncRNA H19 mRNA expression in skin tissues as well(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Xuesaitong Capsules alleviate ischemia/reperfusion injury in frostbite-injured mice by exerting anti-inflammatory and anti oxidative stress effects and restoring vascular endothelial function mediated by the downregulation of LncRNA H19 expression and inhibition of the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Ischemic stroke(IS)research has faced bottlenecks due to the limitations of conventional technologies in resolving cellular heterogeneity and spatiotemporal dynamics.The development of single-cell and spatial omics technologies provides revolutionary tools to break through these constraints.Single-cell omics technologies,by performing high-throughput sequencing on thousands of cells,reveal the high heterogeneity and dynamic state transitions of neurons,glial cells,immune cells,and others post-IS.For instance,microglia contain pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory functional subsets,while astrocytes exhibit distinct activation state spectra.Pseudotime analysis further reconstructs the fate trajectories of cells during the damage and repair processes.Spatial omics technologies,conversely,reconstruct spatial maps of gene expression through in situ capture,elucidating molecular gradients between the ischemic core,penumbra,and healthy brain regions,and enabling the analysis of critical cell-cell interaction net-works.Integrating the deep phenotyping capability of single-cell sequencing with the in situ localization information from spatial omics constitutes the current core strategy.This multimodal analysis allows for precise anchoring of cell subtypes to their spatial microenvironments,revealing their distribution patterns and functions,and constructing a more accurate atlas of cell-cell communication.This significantly ad-vances the refined dissection of IS mechanisms.This strategy has already accelerated the discovery of po-tential biomarkers and spatiotemporally specific therapeutic targets.Although challenges remain in sample preparation,data integration,and technical noise,future interdisciplinary collaboration,multi-omics in-tegration,and in-depth mining with artificial intelligence promise to comprehensively transform our under-standing of IS.Ultimately,it holds the potential to promote advances in its early diagnosis,precise sub-typing,and the development of individualized treatment strategies.

Objective To construct a fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model based on the analytic hierarchy process(AHP)to evaluate the quality of hemodialysis machines.Methods Firstly,the influencing factors for the quality of hemodialysis machines were determined with considerations on the requirements for medical technology assessment of medical devices and the hospital's many years of experience in use,maintenance and management of hemodialysis machines,and the indicators of the evaluation model were set with the general attributes of the product quality as the criterion level and the influencing factors as the sub-criterion level.Secondly,the AHP was used to qualitatively and quantitatively analyze relevant factors to construct a hierarchical judgment matrix,and the quality evaluation indicator weights for hemodylysis machines were determined with the consistency test.Finally,the operational principles of fuzzy mathematics were applied to establishing a fuzzy judgment matrix,and the evaluation results were calculated using Type Ⅳ fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model.Results The constructed fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model included one first-level indicator,seven second-level indicators and 21 third-level indicators.All the first-and second-level indicators passed the consistency tests.The evaluation results obtained with this model were practical and consistent with the hospital's long-term record data on hemodialysis machines.Conclusion The constructed fuzzy comprehensive evaluation model demonstrates a certain degree of scientific rigor for quality assessment of hemodialysis machines and can provide decision-making support for their procurement justification.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(9):81-87]

To perform the phylogenetic characterization of an isolated porcine rotavirus(PoRV)and investigate its pathogenicity in suckling mice and piglets.A G4P[23]genotype PoRV strain JSJR2023 was successfully isolated from the diarrheic piglet feces through propagation in MA104 cells.The viral proliferation kinetics were analyzed using TCID50 assays,followed by complete genome sequencing through Sanger sequencing platforms.Comprehensive genotyping and phylogenetic reconstruction were conducted using MEGA7.0 with maximum likelihood algorithms.Pathogenicity was assessed in the following animal models:5-day-old C57BL/6 mice and 3-day-old piglets.Multidimensional evaluation included clinical monitoring(diarrhea scoring,growth parameters),virological detection,and histopathological analysis of intestinal tissues.The virus strain JSJR2023 could replicate efficiently in MA104 cells,achieving peak titers of 107.5 TCID50/mL.Whole genome genotype analysis showed that the strain belonged to G4-P[23]-I5-R1-C1-M1-A8-N1-T1-E1-H1.Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the VP3 and NSP4 genes of JSJR2023 strain were most closedrelated to human species rotaviruses,suggesting genetic reassortment between human and porcine RV strains.The animal experiments in suckling mice showed that the JSJR2023 strain infection caused diarrhea symptoms,intestinal edema and congestion,and shedding of intestinal villus epithelial cells.The pathogenicity experiments in piglets showed that compared with the control group,the challenged group of pig-lets had severe diarrhea symptoms,accompanied by reduced appetite and listlessness.Post-mortem examination revealed that the intes-tines were significantly thinner,congested,and filled with yellow watery contents.The challenged piglets showed typical pathological changes such as thinning of the intestinal wall and shortening and shedding of intestinal villi.In conclusion,this study successfully iso-lated a human-porcine recombinant G4P[23]PoRV strain and established the infection models in suckling mice and piglets,providing important tools for investigating the pathogenic mechanism of PoRV,evaluating vaccines and developing antiviral drug.

Objective To investigate the regulatory effects and molecular mechanisms of extracellular vesicles(EVs)secreted by adri-amycin(ADR)-resistant breast cancer cells on vascular endothelial cells related to tumor microenvironment.Methods The ADR-sen-sitive breast cancer cell line(MCF-7)and its ADR-resistant counterpart(MCF-7-ADR)were established in vitro.Then,the EVs were isolated from the supernatant of cell culture using a commercial kit.The fluorescence labeling and tracking technology using PKH67 was used to validate the internalization of EVs by human umbilical vein endothelial cell(HUVEC).The effects of EVs on the proliferation,migration,and angiogenesis of HUVEC were assessed by the colony formation,scratch wound healing,and tube formation assays,re-spectively.The expression level of CD31 protein was detected by Western blot,and the levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in cell supernatant were determined by ELISA.The microRNA(miRNA)sequencing technology was utilized to identify the differentially expressed miRNAs in EVs secreted by ADR-resistant cells.Results Compared with the ADR-sensitive strain,the EVs secreted by the ADR-resistant strain significantly enhanced the proliferation(colony number increased by 38.7%,P=0.011),migra-tion(scratch healing rate improved by 42.3%,P=0.004),and tube formation ability(tube formation rates increased by 1.8 times and 2.3 times at 4 h and 16 h,respectively,P=0.044 and 0.010)of HUVEC.Western blot analysis showed that the expression level of CD31 in the EVs secreted by the ADR-resistant strain increased by 1.85 times compared with the ADR-sensitive strain(P=0.039).The results of ELISA showed that the expression level of VEGF increased by 2.12 times(P=0.012).The miRNA sequencing identified a differentially expressed miRNA profile.Conclusion The ADR-resistant breast cancer cells significantly enhance the proliferation,migration,and angiogenesis of vascular endothelial cells by secreting EVs rich in specific miRNA,and its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of CD31/VEGF protein levels mediated by EVs,suggesting that the drug-resistant cells reshaping the tumor vascular microenvironment through EVs may become a new therapeutic target of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer.

With the improvement of diagnosis and treatment level, most breast cancer patients survive in a chronic state for a long time, and the issue of concomitant diseases of breast cancer (CDBC) has become increasingly prominent. All-round and full-cycle management of these comorbidities can help improve patients’ quality of life and prognosis. General practice, with its long-term, comprehensive and responsible health care that is person-centered, family-based, community-wide and oriented to the maintenance and promotion of overall health, presents new opportunities for the health management of CDBC. This article will explore the application of consultation-liaison general practice through the integrated general and specialist care in the comprehensive management of CDBC, aiming to raise people’s awareness of it and promote the development of consultation-liaison general practice and the management model of the "Internet plus general practitioner team" , which will surely contribute to the all-round management of concomitant diseases in breast cancer patients.
