ObjectiveBased on the clinical characteristics of chronic gouty arthritis （CGA） in both traditional Chinese and western medicine， this study aims to systematically evaluate the clinical concordance of existing CGA animal models， providing recommendations for establishing animal models that align with the pathological characteristics of CGA and the manifestations of traditional Chinese medicine syndromes. MethodsBy comprehensively retrieving Chinese and international databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure， Wanfang， VIP Chinese Science and Technology Periodical Database （VIP）， and PubMed， all relevant literature on CGA animal models was collected. Based on the guidelines， the diagnostic criteria of both traditional Chinese and western medicine were summarized and organized. The evaluation indicators for the CGA model were constructed with reference to existing evaluation modes， and the CGA animal models were analyzed to systematically evaluate the clinical concordance of existing models. ResultsThe current methods used to construct CGA animal models mainly include monosodium urate crystal induction， high-protein diet induction （poultry lack urate oxidase）， and high-fat diet combined with urate oxidase inhibitors and joint injection. Based on 11 pieces of included literature， the traditional Chinese and western medicine scoring data of each model were extracted， and the average scoring values of all models were ultimately calculated. The results show that the average clinical concordances of existing CGA animal models in both traditional Chinese and western medicine are 43.33% and 64.44%， respectively. Among them， the model with the highest clinical concordance rate is the one with a high-fat diet combined with potassium oxonate to induce hyperuricemia plus joint injection， achieving 83.33% clinical concordance in western medicine and 60% in traditional Chinese medicine. This model aligns well with the pathogenic characteristics and pathological changes of clinical CGA. ConclusionAlthough current CGA animal models can simulate some pathological characteristics of CGA， they struggle to comprehensively reflect the complex pathological processes of CGA and the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine syndromes. Therefore， in the future， it is necessary to establish the CGA animal models that incorporate the clinical disease and syndrome characteristics of traditional Chinese and western medicine and formulate the uniform model evaluation criteria， providing more precise tools for CGA mechanism research and the development of traditional Chinese medicine.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Wumeiwan suppresses the development and progression of colorectal cancer（CRC） through the regulation of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming， thereby providing new experimental evidence for the prevention and treatment of CRC. MethodsA total of 120 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the blank group， model group， Wumeiwan high-， medium-， and low-dose groups（54， 27， 13.5 g·kg^-1）， and the mesalazine group（0.01 g·kg^-1）， with 20 mice in each group. Except for the blank group， all mice were subjected to azoxymethane（AOM）/dextran sulfate sodium（DSS） treatment to establish an inflammation-associated CRC model. One week after AOM injection， mice in the treatment groups received intragastric administration of the designated drugs， while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of purified water， continuing until 20 d after the intervention endpoint. Hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to observe colonic histopathological alterations， and immunohistochemistry for vascular endothelial growth factor（VEGF） was performed to evaluate neovascularization and tumor invasion. Metabolomics combined with Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） and metabolite set enrichment analysis（MSEA） was applied to identify key CRC-related metabolic pathways， which were further validated by transcriptomic Gene Ontology（GO） enrichment and gene heatmap analysis. Subsequently， Western blot was performed to determine the expression levels of core proteins in these pathways， and immunofluorescence was used to analyze their localization and co-expression patterns in tissues， thereby elucidating the mechanism of Wumeiwan from multiple biological dimensions. ResultsCompared with the blank group， mice in the model group exhibited a significant decrease in body weight and a significant increase in the disease activity index（DAI） score（P<0.05）， with pronounced colonic mucosal damage accompanied by aggravated tumor invasion. Compared with the model group， Wumeiwan intervention markedly improved body weight loss and reduced DAI score， attenuated mucosal injury， and significantly decreased VEGF expression level（P<0.05）. Multi-omics analysis revealed that differential metabolites and genes across groups were commonly enriched in fatty acid metabolism， fatty acid biosynthesis， and other lipid-related pathways. Relative to the blank group， the model group showed significant upregulation levels of fatty acid synthesis-related genes， including sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1（SREBP1）， fatty acid synthase（FASN）， stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1（SCD1）， as well as saturated fatty acids（P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， treatment with Wumeiwan significantly reduced the expression of key genes involved in fatty acid metabolic pathways， including SREBP1， FASN， and SCD1（P<0.05）. Western blot results further confirmed that proteins in this pathway were significantly elevated in the model group， whereas they were markedly downregulated following Wumeiwan treatment（P<0.05）. Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated enhanced co-localization of SREBP1 with the cancer-associated fibroblast（CAF） marker α-smooth muscle actin（SMA） in the model group， whereas this co-localization signal was attenuated after Wumeiwan intervention（P<0.05）. ConclusionWumeiwan can improve survival outcomes and alleviate colonic pathological damage in CRC mice， its therapeutic mechanism may be closely associated with the regulation of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming mediated by the SREBP1/FASN/SCD1 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of malaria and provide a basis for developing improved prevention and control measures. Methods Data were obtained from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Malaria surveillance data for Nanning City from January 1,2023, to December 31,2024, were exported from the Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management Subsystem. The characteristics of the two groups of malaria cases were compared. Results A total of 103 imported malaria cases were reported in Nanning City in 2024, representing a 38.32% decrease compared with the same period of the previous year. No statistically significant difference were observed between cases reported in 2023 and 2024 in terms of average age, gender ratio, proportion of parasite species, and monthly reporting distribution;however, statistically significant differences were found in the proportion of reporting areas and current residence areas(χ2= 13.572 and 10.355, respectively; P = 0.001 and 0.035, respectively). The proportion of cases reported in Shanglin County and the proportion of cases residing in Shanglin County were both lower than those during the same period of the previous year. Conclusions The high aggregation of imported malaria cases in Nanning City has decreased. Medical institutions in areas other than Shanglin County should strengthen their vigilance against malaria.

Objective To investigate the occurrence of hemodialysis events in patients who received maintenance hemodialysis in outpatient setting in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan Province,and provide basis for the formulation of infection prevention and control strategies in this area.Methods Based on the standards from Center for Disease Control and Prevention-National Healthcare Safety Network(CDC-NHSN)as well as the WS/T 312-2023 standards,four public hospitals(two secondary and two tertiary hospitals)in three counties and one city of Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture were selected,and prospective surveillance method was adopted.A total of 826 patients(n=8 675 cases)who received maintenance hemodialysis on the first two working day of each month from March 2024 to March 2025 were surveilled.Data were collected with standardized form by infection control teams in dialysis centers.Statistical analysis was conducted.Results During the surveillance period,the incidence of hemodialysis events was 5.15％(447/8 675).The incidence(16.67％,36/216)and mortality(10.00％,4/40)of hemodialysis events in patients with non-tunneled catheters were the highest among patients with all types of ac-cess.Patients with tunneled-catheters had the highest hospitalization rate(42.86％).Systemic use of antimicrobial agents accounted for 82.33％(368/447).Upper respiratory tract infection was the main infection(38.32％).In-fection at the puncture site of vascular access accounted for 16.78％(75/447).Four cases(0.89％,4/447)had positive blood culture.Conclusion Systemic antimicrobial use and infection at vascular access puncture site is the most frequent events in patients who receive maintenance hemodialysis in outpatient setting in Liangshan Yi Autono-mous Prefecture of Sichuan Province.Patients with non-tunneled catheters have the highest rate of hemodialysis events.

Aim To explore the compatibility and po-tential mechanism of effective components of Biejia-Ezhu against triple negative breast cancer(TNBC)and verify it by experiments.Methods Effective compo-nents and targets of Biejia-Ezhu were obtained by TC-MSP and Swiss Target Prediction.Disease targets of TNBC were obtained from OMMI and GeneCards data-bases.The PPI network was constructed using STRING database.GO and KEGG path enrichment analysis was performed using DAVID database.Cytoscape3.9.1 software was used to construct the"drug-component-target-disease"network,screen key targets and compo-nents for molecular docking,and further verify the com-patibility of key components and targets in vitro.Re-sults ① A total of 71 effective components were iden-tified in the Biejia-Ezhu drug pair.There were 146 drug targets associated with the disease.A total of 113 signaling pathways were identified by KEGG analysis.The 71 potential active components of Biejia-Ezhu mainly acted on key targets such as mTORC1,ULK1,TNF,EGFR,ESR1,STAT3,HIF1A,and PTGS2.Mo-lecular docking results showed that glycine and curcu-min were the key active components of Biejia-Ezhu,and both had strong docking activity against key target proteins mTORC1 and ULK1.②The results of in vitro experiment showed that glycine combined with curcu-min significantly inhibited the proliferation and clonal formation ability of TNBC cells(P＜0.05),up-regula-ted the expression of autophagy marker LC3 Ⅱ/Ⅰ,down-regulated the expression of EGFR,down-regula-ted the expression of pathway protein mTORC1,p-mTOR,p-ULK1,and promoted the expression of path-way protein ULK1(P＜0.05).Conclusion The key component of Biejia-Ezhu against triple-negative breast cancer is glycine-curcumin,the mechanism of which may be related to the regulation of the mTORC1/ULK1 signaling pathway to promote autophagy.

Objective To evaluate the application value of intraoperative optical coherence tomography(iOCT)in the treat-ment of idiopathic macular holes(IMH)using various surgical techniques.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients who underwent vitrectomy assisted by iOCT for IMH at Wuhan No.1 Hospital from January 2021 to December 2021.All the included patients were categorized based on the different surgical methods:internal limiting membrane(ILM)peel-ing,inverted ILM coverage,and ILM filling.All patients underwent iOCT examinations to assess morphological changes in the retinal layers of the macular region,the integrity of ILM peeling,the morphology of the macular hole edges,and any intraopera-tive retinal microdamage.The closure rates of macular holes,changes in best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA),and postoperative complications were compared among three surgical approaches.Results After selection,a total of 72 patients were included in the study,consisting of 23 males and 49 females,with an average age of(57.88±7.21)years and a follow-up period of 6 months.After completing ILM peeling,iOCT revealed morphological changes at the edges of the macular holes in 15 eyes,and intraoperative retinal microdamage occurred in 18 eyes(25％).Among these,12 eyes exhibited abnormalities in the nerve fiber layer,such as hemorrhage,while 6 showed mild elevation of the inner retinal structures.iOCT indicated that 8 eyes(11.1％)still had remnants of the anterior membrane after the initial peeling,suggesting incomplete peeling and a second peeling was per-formed.The remaining 64 eyes had complete peeling.BCVA significantly improved in the ILM peeling group,ILM filling group,and ILM inversion coverage group at 1 week,1 month,and 6 months post-surgery compared to preoperative values(P＜0.05).The closure rates for the macular holes in the ILM peeling group,ILM filling group,and ILM inversion coverage group were 89.7％,91.3％,and 95.0％,respectively,with no significant differences among the groups(P＞0.05).No severe complication related to the surgical procedure was observed in any of the three groups during or after surgery.Conclusion ILM peeling,ILM filling,and ILM inversion coverage are all effective surgical techniques for treating IMH.iOCT can clearly and dynamically ob-serve the morphology of the retina in the macular area in real time during the operation,especially the subtle structural changes of the macular hole.It is beneficial to improve the surgeon's understanding of the surgical area,guide the operation,optimize the surgical decision,and improve the postoperative visual acuity of patients.

Objective:To explore the impact of diabetes mellitus on perioperative myocardial injury and cardiac function recovery in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods:The clinical data of 40 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent off-pump CABG in Changsha Central Hospital from 2015 to 2025 were retrospectively included. They were divided into the diabetes group (20 cases) and the control group (20 cases) according to whether they had type 2 diabetes mellitus. Myocardial injury markers (creatine kinase isoenzyme, troponin I, lactate dehydrogenase) before surgery, on the 1st and 3rd days after surgery and before discharge, as well as cardiac function indicators (B-type natriuretic peptide, left ventricular ejection fraction) before surgery and before discharge were compared between the two groups. The postoperative recovery speed (mechanical ventilation time, intensive care unit stay, vasoactive drug use time, postoperative hospital stay) was also compared between the two groups.Results:Before surgery, there were no statistically significant differences in myocardial injury markers and cardiac function indicators between the two groups (all P>0.05). On the 3rd day after surgery, lactate dehydrogenase in the diabetes group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences in creatine kinase isoenzyme and troponin I between the two groups (all P>0.05). Before discharge, the levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme and B-type natriuretic peptide in the diabetes group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), and the left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the diabetes group had significantly longer mechanical ventilation time, intensive care unit stay, and postoperative hospital stay (all P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in the use time of vasoactive drugs ( P>0.05). Conclusions:For patients with coronary heart disease complicated with diabetes mellitus, their preoperative cardiac status is comparable to that of patients without diabetes mellitus, but they show a characteristic dynamic injury pattern after surgery: early elevation of lactate dehydrogenase suggests susceptibility to subcellular injury, and long-term abnormalities of creatine kinase isoenzyme, B-type natriuretic peptide, and decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction indicate myocardial repair disorders. Compared with patients without diabetes mellitus, those with diabetes mellitus require a longer recovery time after off-pump CABG, and targeted perioperative management strategies are urgently needed.
