Hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) is one of the main causes of disability in middle-aged and elderly people, as well as high mortality rates and long-term physical impairments in newborns. The pathological manifestations of HIBD include neuronal damage and loss of myelin sheaths. Tau protein is an important microtubule-associated protein in brain, exists in neurons and oligodendrocytes, and regulates various cellular activities such as cell differentiation and maturation, axonal transport, and maintenance of cellular cytoskeleton structure. Phosphorylation is a common chemical modification of Tau. In physiological condition, it maintains normal cell cytoskeleton and biological functions by regulating Tau structure and function. In pathological conditions, it leads to abnormal Tau phosphorylation and influences its structure and functions, resulting in Tauopathies. Studies have shown that brain hypoxia-ischemia could cause abnormal alteration in Tau phosphorylation, then participating in the pathological process of HIBD. Meanwhile, brain hypoxia-ischemia can induce oxidative stress and inflammation, and multiple Tau protein kinases are activated and involved in Tau abnormal phosphorylation. Therefore, exploring specific molecular mechanisms by which HIBD activates Tau protein kinases, and elucidating their relationship with abnormal Tau phosphorylation are crucial for future researches on HIBD related treatments. This review aims to focus on the mechanisms of the role of Tau phosphorylation in HIBD, and the potential relationships between Tau protein kinases and Tau phosphorylation, providing a basis for intervention and treatment of HIBD.

Tumor immunotherapy,recognized as the fourth major treatment modality alongside surgery,radiotherapy,and chemotherapy,fundamentally relies on mobilizing and enhancing the body's intrinsic immune system to achieve the precise targeting and elimination of neoplastic lesions.In this therapeutic framework,macrophages derived from blood monocyte differentiation serve as critical components of the innate immune defense system and exert profound impacts within the tumor microenvironment(TME).As the dominant inflammatory cell population infiltrating the TME,tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs)not only perform a key function in immune regulation but also serve as a paradigm for the connection between inflammation and tumors.Therapeutic strategies targeting TAMs aim to reverse the immunosuppressive milieu of the TME through multifaceted regulatory mechanisms,including cellular depletion or functional reprogramming,thereby effectively impeding tumor progression.This review systematically analyzes the intricate immune regulatory mechanisms of macrophages in tumor immunotherapy and synthesizes research advancements in major therapeutic agents targeting TAMs,aiming to provide researchers in the field of tumor immunotherapy and developers of macrophage-modulating pharmaceuticals with novel theoretical insights and practical guidelines.

Aim To explore the potential genes and mechanism of alisol B in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods The proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells were detected by CCK-8 and Transwell.Genes of NSCLC and alisol B were col-lected through TCGA and compound gene prediction database,and their intersection genes were obtained.The network of protein-protein interaction(PPI)was constructed by using String database,and the top 20 key nodes were screened out,and the prognosis-related proteins related to the prognosis of NSCLC were screened out by using R language,and the intersection of them was obtained.The potential mechanism of ali-sol B on NSCLC was explored by KEGG and GO en-richment analysis and the relationship between related genes and immune cells,which was verified by cell-lev-el experiments.Results Alisol B inhibited the cell activity and migration ability of NSCLC cells.Five im-portant genes were identified by network pharmacologi-cal analysis:CCNE1,CDK1,COL1A1,COL1A2 and COL3A1.The results of cell experiment showed that al-isol B down-regulated the expression of Cyclin E1,CDK1 and COL1A2 in NSCLC cells.In addition,alisol B could inhibit the expression of COL1A2 and M2 macrophage marker CD206 in macrophages.Conclu-sions Alisol B may inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells by down-regulating CDK1 and Cyclin E1,and may affect the function of macrophages by inhibiting COL1A2,thus regulating the tumor immune microenvi-ronment and inhibiting NSCLC.

Objective To develop an evidence-based practice program for ICU eye care and evaluate its application effect using Stetler model of research utilization.Methods The systematic search was carried out in domestic and foreign guid elines,systematic reviews,evidence summaries,expert consensuses on eye care for ICU patients.The quality of the included literature was evaluated and the evidence was summarized.The evidence based on expert advice,clinical context and stakeholder opinions was screened.According to Stetler model of research utilization,the evidence translation/application was formulated from 3 aspects,including method,level and type of evidence application,and the evidence translation was implemented using a stepwise trial design.Five ICUs in a tertiary hospital in Zhejiang Province were selected,and the order of enrollment of each ICU was determined by computer-generated random numbers from April to september,2022.In the first month,all ICUs were in pre-evidence-based practice period,and in the second month,an ICU was trained and entered the evidence-based practice period.Until the 6th month,all ICUs entered the evidence-based practice period.Then the rate of ocular symptoms and implementation rate of eye care measures were compared before and after EBP.Results A total of 1 540 patients were included.With regard to the implementation rate of eye care measures,the rate of lubricant use and suspected ocular infection management in patients at high risk for ocular complications in evidence-based practice period was significantly higher compared with pre-evidence-based practice period(P＜0.001),and no statistically significant difference was found in the rate of eyelid closure.The incidence of conjunctival exposure,subconjunctival hemorrhage,conjunctival congestion,and ocular discharge in non-neurology critical care patients decreased compared with pre-evidence-based practice period(P＜0.05),and the incidence of conjunctival edema and conjunctival congestion in NICU patients decreased compared with pre-evidence-based practice period as the intervention continued(P＜0.001).Conclusion Evidence-based practice in eye care for ICU patients using Stetler model of research utilization can standardize the practice of eye care for ICU patients and improve the quality of care.

Objective:To investigate serum vitamin A and vitamin D status in children aged 2-<7 years in 20 cities in China.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 2 924 healthy children aged 2-<7 years were recruited from September 2018 to September 2019 from 20 cities in China, categorized by age groups of 2-<3 years, 3-<5 years, and 5-<7 years. The demographic and economic characteristics and health-related information of the enrolled children were investigated. Body weight and height were measured by professional staff members. The serum vitamin A and vitamin D levels were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Chi-square test and Logistic regression were applied to analyze the association between vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency as well as their underlying impact factors.Results:The age of the 2 924 enrolled children was 4.33 (3.42, 5.17) years. There were 1 726 males (59.03%) and 1 198 females (40.97%). The prevalences of vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency in enrolled children were 2.19% (64/2 924) and 3.52% (103/2 924), respectively, and the insufficiency rates were 29.27% (856/2 924) and 22.20% (649/2 924), respectively. Children with both vitamin A and vitamin D deficiencies or insufficiencies were found in 10.50% (307/2 924) of cases. Both vitamin A ( χ2=7.91 and 8.06, both P=0.005) and vitamin D ( χ2=71.35 and 115.10, both P<0.001) insufficiency rates were higher in children aged 3-<5 and 5-<7 years than those in children aged 2-<3 years. Vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation in the last 3 months was a protective factor for vitamin A and D deficiency and insufficiency, respectively ( OR=0.68 and 0.22, 95% CI 0.49-0.95 and 0.13-0.40, both P<0.05). The rates of vitamin A and D insufficiency was higher in children with annual household incomes <60 000 RMB than in those with annual household incomes ≥60 000 RMB ( χ2=34.11 and 10.43, both P<0.01). Northwest and Southwest had the highest rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency in children aged 2-<7 yeas, respectively ( χ2=93.22 and 202.54, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Among 20 cities in China, children aged 2-<7 years experience high rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency, which are affected by age, family economic level, vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation, and regional economic level. The current results suggest that high level of attention should be paid to vitamin A and vitamin D nutritional status of preschool children.
