Objective To explore the underlying mechanisms by which time-restricted feeding(TRF)attenuates dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)-induced colitis in mice via modulation of regenerating islet-derived protein 3 gamma(Reg3γ)expression and gut microbiota.Methods Six-week-old C57BL/6 mice were stratified by body weight and randomized into ad libitum feeding(AL)and TRF groups(n=7).The AL mice were given unrestricted food access,whereas the TRF mice were allowed feeding only during 00:00 and 08:00 daily,for totally 4 weeks.Mouse colitis model was induced at the fourth week by adding 2.5%dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)in drinking water for 6 d.Disease severity and the effects of TRF were assessed with disease activity index(DAI)scoring,colon length measurement,HE staining and histopathological scoring,and mRNA expression levels of regenerating islet-derived 3 gamma(Reg3g)and inflammatory cytokines in colonic tissues.Another 14 mice were randomized into AL plus antibiotic cocktail(AL+ABX)and TRF plus antibiotic cocktail(TRF+ABX)groups,with 7 animals in each group.ABX was administered to deplete gut microbiota and evaluate the microbiota dependence of TRF in attenuating colitis.Fecal samples from AL and TRF mice were analyzed by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing(16S rRNA-seq),and serum lipopolysaccharide(LPS)level was measured.The colonic epithelial cells were collected for RNA-seq.Results After modeling,the AL mice exhibited typical colitis symptoms,such as weight loss,diarrhea,and hematochezia.TRF intervention significantly attenuated these above symptoms,with lower DAI scores from day 4 post-modeling(P<0.001),reduced colon shortening(P<0.01),preserved tissue architecture,and decreased inflammation.RT-qPCR analysis showed that TRF down-regulated colonic mRNA expression levels of Reg3g and pro-inflammatory cytokines(IL-1 β,IL-6,TNF-α)(P<0.05)while up-regulated that of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10(P<0.000 1)when compared with the corresponding levels in AL mice.ABX treatment led no significant differences between the AL+ABX and TRF+ABX groups in term of DAI score,colon length,or histopathology.Obviously down-regulated Reg3g was observed in the TRF+ABX group than the AL+ABX group(P<0.05),whereas L-1β,IL-6,TNF-α and IL-10 showed no notable changes.16S rRNA-seq revealed that TRF markedly reshaped gut microbiota composition,with increased Gram-positive bacterial abundance,reduced Gram-negative bacteria,with concomitant lower serum LPS level(P<0.001).RNA-seq also indicated significant suppression of NF-κB and other inflammation-related signaling pathways in the TRF group.Conclusion TRF attenuates DSS-induced colitis in mice by downr-egulating Reg3γ expression,reshaping gut microbiota,and reducing serum LPS level,and thereby suppressing NF-κB-mediated inflammatory signaling pathways.

Aim To explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Qingjie Huagong decoction in modulating PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway in inflammatory response of acute pancreatitis(AP)mice.Methods Twenty-four mice were randomly divided into Blank group,Model group,Ustekin group,and Qingjie Hua-gong decoction group,with six mice in each group.The AP model was prepared by using rain frogin.Serum α-AMS,PNLP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α lev-els were detected by ELISA;the pancreatic pathology was detected by HE staining;the expressions of PI3K,AKT,and NF-κB-related proteins and mRNAs were de-tected by immunohistochemistry,Western blot,and RT-qPCR.Results Compared with the blank group,the model group showed obvious pathological damage to the pancreas,with significantly higher serum α-AMS,PN-LP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α levels(P<0.01),and significantly higher levels of PI3K,AKT,and NF-κB-related proteins and mRNA expression(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,both the Qingjie Huagong decoction group and the ustekin group improved the histopathological changes in the pancreas of AP mice,decreased the serum α-AMS,PNLP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α levels,and down-reg-ulated the expression levels of pancreatic PI3K,AKT,NF-κB-related proteins and mRNA(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Qingjie Huagong decoction may inhibit the inflammatory response and protect pancreat-ic tissues by regulating the expression of PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To construct a quality evaluation index system for perianal infection care in patients with hematologic neoplasms, aiming to establish a standardized approach for care.Methods:A quality evaluation index system for perianal infection management in patients with hematologic neoplasms was developed from January to June 2023 using Donabedian′s "Structure- Process- Outcome" approach, based on evidence- based literature study and expert conference discussions. An index system for evaluating the quality of perianal infection care in patients with hematologic neoplasms was established through expert consultation, and the weights for each indicator were derived using the analytic hierarchy process.Results:Two rounds of expert consultations were conducted, involving 27 experts aged 30 to 53 (38.85 ± 6.13) years, in which of them there were 1 male and 26 females. The positive coefficients of the experts in the two rounds of consultations were 100.00% (27/27) and 96.30% (26/27), respectively. The expert authority coefficients were 0.874 and 0.881, respectively, and the Kendall coordination coefficients were 0.234 and 0.219 (both P<0.05). The quality evaluation index system for perianal infection management in patients with hematologic neoplasms consisted of 3 main indicators (structural quality, process quality, outcome quality), 12 secondary indicators, and 48 tertiary indicators. Conclusions:The process of developing the quality assessment criteria for perianal infection care in patients with hematologic neoplasms is systematic and yields dependable results. The criteria cover a wide range of aspects and are specific, offering a valuable framework for assessing the quality of perianal infection care in patients with hematologic neoplasms.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma(OSCC)is a malignant lesion originating from the oral mucosal squamous epithelium,account-ing for over 80%of oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Key etiological factors include tobacco,alcohol abuse,and betel quid chewing.In China,its incidence has shown an overall upward trend,posing a significant threat to public health.OSCC exhibits high local invasive-ness,making early diagnosis critical for improving prognosis.Its clinical management requires close multidisciplinary collaboration among oral and maxillofacial surgery,head and neck surgery,radiation oncology,medical oncology,reconstructive surgery,radiology,patholo-gy,and nutritional support teams.Given the increasing disease burden of OSCC and rapid development of multidisciplinary collaborative models,an expert panel has formulated this integrated management consensus based on evidence-based medicine and extensive deliber-ation.Centered on the'Prevention-Screening-Diagnosis-Treatment-Rehabilitation'framework,the consensus provides comprehensive guidance for the entire disease course of OSCC patients,aiming to standardize clinical practice.

Aim To investigate the mechanism of in-testinal mucosal barrier protective effect of Qingjie Huagong decoction(QJHGD)on rats with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP).Methods The SAP rat model was constructed,and the sham-operation group,the model group,the group administered with different dosages of QJHGD,and the positive control group were set up respectively.HE staining was used to observe the histopathological changes.ELISA was employed to detect the serum levels of diamine oxidase(DAO)and D-lactic acid(D-LA)in rats.Transmission electron microscopy was utilized to observe the mitochondria of ileal tissues.qRT-PCR and Western blot were applied to detect the mRNA and protein expression of PGAM5,Drp1,PINK1,Parkin,LC3B in ileal tissues of rats.Results Compared with the sham-operated group,the pancreas and ileum tissues of rats in the model group showed obvious pathological changes,with abnormal mitochondrial structure and reduced number of autoph-agic vesicles in the ileum tissues.The levels of DAO and D-LA in serum increased(P<0.01),and the mRNA and protein expression of PGAM 5,Drp 1,PINK1,Parkin,and LC3B in the ileum tissues de-creased significantly.Compared with the model group,pancreatic and ileal pathology were improved,mito-chondrial damage in the ileum was reduced,and the number of autophagic vesicles increased in the QJHGD group.The serum levels of DAO and D-LA were re-duced,and the expression of PGAM5,Drp1,PINK1,Parkin,and LC3B mRNA and protein in the ileal tis-sues increased significantly.Conclusions QJHGD may exert a protective effect on the SAP intestinal mu-cosal barrier by regulating the PGAM5/Drp1/PINK1/Parkin axis in order to elevate the level of mitochondri-al autophagy in the intestinal epithelial cells,thereby improving the level of repair of the intestinal epithelial cells.
