ObjectiveTo elucidate the mechanism by which total flavonoids of Abelmoschi Corolla （TFA） treat immunoglobulin A （IgA） nephropathy （IgAN） through serum metabolomics analysis. MethodsSPF-grade male SD rats were randomly assigned into six groups （n=10）： blank， model， low-dose TFA （TFA-L， 27 mg·kg^-1）， medium-dose TFA （TFA-M， 54 mg·kg^-1）， high-dose TFA （TFA-H， 108 mg·kg^-1）， and losartan potassium （LST， 4.5 mg·kg^-1） groups. The remaining five groups， excluding the blank group， were modeled with bovine serum albumin （BSA）， lipopolysaccharide （LPS）， and carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）. Specifically， from weeks 1 to 10， BSA was administered via gavage every other day， and a mixture of castor oil and CCl₄ was injected subcutaneously once a week， with LPS injected into the tail vein at weeks 6 and 8. After successful modeling， each intervention group was administrated with the medication prepared with distilled water once daily by gavage for a continuous period of 4 weeks. The levels of 24-hour urinary total protein （24 h UP） and serum creatinine （SCr） were quantified by kits， and the serum IgA level was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Renal pathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining. Renal IgA deposition was assessed by immunofluorescence （IF）. Endoplasmic reticulum （ER） stress was observed by transmission electron microscopy. Western blot and immunohistochemistry （IHC） were employed to detect the expression of ER stress-related factors. Non-targeted metabolomics was used to screen differential metabolites for analysis， and key metabolites arachidonic acid （AA）， prostaglandin E₂ （PGE₂）， and cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） were validated. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed increased 24-hour urine protein （24 h UP） and serum creatinine （SCr） levels （P<0.01）， obvious renal pathological damage， elevated serum IgA level （P<0.01）， increased renal AA and PGE₂ levels （P<0.01）， and up-regulated protein levels of COX-2， glucose-regulated protein 78 （GRP78）， phosphorylated eukaryotic initiation factor 2α （P-EIF2α）， activating transcription factor 4 （ATF4）， inositol-requiring enzyme 1α （IRE1α）， and spliced X-box binding protein 1 （XBP1s） in the renal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the intervention groups showed reductions in 24 h UP and SCr levels （P<0.05， P<0.01）， alleviated renal pathological injury， decreased serum IgA level （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and reduced renal AA and PGE₂ levels （P<0.01）. Western blot and IHC results showed that TFA reduced the levels of COX-2， GRP78， P-EIF2α， ATF4， IRE1α， and XBP1s in the renal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Metabolomics results indicated that 51 commonly differential metabolites were found among the normal， model， and TFA-M groups. TFA ameliorated IgAN by affecting metabolic pathways related to the biosynthesis of arachidonic acid and arginine through L-aspartic acid， prostaglandin 2α， leukotriene B₄， leukotriene D₄， among others. ConclusionTFA can regulate the arachidonic acid metabolism pathway， thereby modulating ER stress， reducing renal damage， and ameliorating IgA nephropathy.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of Femoral Artery Compression-Related Skin Complications Around the Puncture Site(FACR-SCAPS)in patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)undergoing transarterial chemoembolization(TACE).Methods A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted using convenience sampling.A total of 1 573 HCC patients who underwent TACE between April 2023 and October 2024 were recruited from interventional radiology departments,oncology units,and specialized centers across 10 hospitals in Beijing,Tianjin,Shandong,Hebei,Qinghai,and Inner Mongolia.Descriptive statistics,univariate analysis,and multivariate logistic regression were used to explore the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of FACR-SCAPS in this population.Results Among the 1 573 primary HCC patients undergoing TACE interventional therapy,FACR-SCAPS occurred in 28.99％(456/1 573),with a total of 476 complication instances recorded(30.26 per 100 patients).Patients with a single complication accounted for 96.93％,whereas those with multiple complications constituted 3.07％.The most prevalent types of complications were skin erythema,skin ecchymosis,and hard lumps formation,collectively accounting for 96.49％of all complications.Hematoma,blisters,and rupture complications collectively accounted for only 4.61％.Logistic regression analysis revealed that peak diastolic blood pressure during compression(OR=1.024,95％CI:1.013-1.035,P＜0.001),use of rotary compression hemostasis devices(OR=3.220,95％CI:2.120-4.891,P＜0.001),elevated PT-INR(OR=19.630,95％CI:6.039-63.810,P＜0.001),and anticoagulant use within the last three months(OR=1.909,95％CI:1.064-3.427,P=0.030)were significant influencing factors associated with FACR-SCAPS post-TACE.Conclusion FACR-SCAPS is commonly seen among primary HCC patients after TACE,its risk factors include peak diastolic blood pressure during compression,use of rotary compression devices,elevated PT-INR,and recent anticoagulant use.

Aim Mouse model of myocardial hypertro-phy was established via intraperitoneal injection of iso-proterenol(ISO)in mice.This approach allows for an in-depth investigation into the pharmacological effects and mechanisms of action of emodin,offering novel in-sights and directions for the improvement of myocardial hypertrophy.Methods The mice were randomly di-vided into the following groups:control group(CON),emodin group(EMO),MAPK activator control group(EMO+Ani),model group(ISO),treatment group(ISO+EMO),and activator intervention group(ISO+EMO+Ani).After treatment with emodin and inter-vention with MAPK activator,the heart weight ratio and cardiac size of each group were observed.Hematoxy-lin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the patho-logical changes in cardiac tissue,and kits were utilized to measure the levels of GSH,LDH,and MDA in the serum.Western blot was employed to detect the protein expression levels of inflammatory and oxidative factors,as well as p-p38,p-ERK,p38,and ERK in cardiac tis-sue.Results Emodin can significantly inhibit the production of myocardial inflammatory and oxidative factors induced by ISO,thereby effectively alleviating the degree of myocardial hypertrophy and fibrosis.Af-ter the p38/ERK signaling pathway was specifically ac-tivated by farnesol,the improvement effect of emodin on myocardial hypertrophy was weakened.Further comparison revealed that,compared with the myocardi-al hypertrophy pathological model group,the pathologi-cal protein expression levels in the farnesol-treated group showed no significant difference,and were even higher in some indicators.Conclusion Emodin can effectively inhibit the release of inflammatory factors and improve the state of oxidative stress by modulating the p38/ERK signaling pathway,thereby exerting an ameliorative effect on myocardial hypertrophy.

Objective:To assess the prognostic impact of the thoracic aorta and aortic valve calcification volume (TAC, AVC) score based on CT measurementsin patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed 102 patients who underwent TAVI for severe aortic stenosis from March 2018 to April 2022 at Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital. The patients were stratified into low TAC and AVC group (TAC low, AVC low) and high TAC and AVC group (TAC high, AVC high) based on median TAC and AVC. The independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of TAVI patients were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional risk regression, and the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of TAVI were analyzed by survival curve. Results:A total of 102 patients were included with a median follow-up of 695 (602, 923) days, during which 9 (8.8%) all-cause deaths and 33 (32.4%) composite end-point events occurred. Univariate Cox risk regression analysis found that TAC was a risk factor for all-cause mortality events in TAVI patients ( P=0.039), TAC and AVC were risk factors for composite endpoint events in TAVI patients ( P=0.047, 0.035).TAC was an independent predictor of all-cause mortality after TAVI in multivariate analysis ( HR=8.971, 95% CI 1.121-71.790, P=0.039), and TAC and AVC were independent risk factors for composite endpoint events after TAVI ( HR=2.243, 95% CI 1.099-4.578, P=0.026; HR=2.346, 95% CI 1.146-4.804, P=0.020). Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that high TAC and AVC scores increased the risk of end-point events ( P<0.05). Conclusion:CT-quantified TAC and AVC volume scores are independent prognostic markers in TAVI patients, with greater calcification burden portending poorer clinical outcomes.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of methadone-related poisoning cases and provide a reference for forensic identification.Methods A total of 71 cases of methadone-related poisoning re-ported from 1998 to 2023 in China and 26 cases of methadone-related deaths reported from 2013 to 2018 in Italy were retrieved from databases including PubMed,Wanfang and CNKI.The general infor-mation,forensic pathological and toxicological characteristics were analyzed.Results Among the 71 methadone-related poisoning cases in China,there were 54 cases(76.06%)of poisoning without death and 17 cases(23.94%)of death from poisoning.There were 54 male cases(76.06%),and 51 cases(71.83%)aged 19 to 39 years old.There were 35 cases(49.30%)of poisoning caused by methadone alone,and 32 cases(45.07%)were poisoning caused by methadone combined with other substances or drugs including heroin and benzodiazepines.Most of the poisoned showed coma,respiratory depres-sion and miosis.Signs of asphyxia were often found by autopsy.The mass concentration of methadone detected in the blood of 6 deceased ranged from 0.112 to 3.000 mg/L.Among the 26 methadone-related deaths in Italy,22 cases were male(84.62%).There were 6 cases(23.08%)caused by methadone alone,and 20 cases(76.92%)died from methadone combined with other substances or drugs.The mass concentration of methadone in blood ranged from 0.181 to 4.059 mg/L.Conclusion The propor-tions of poisoning cases caused by methadone alone and methadone combined with other substances or drugs are comparable in China.The majority of deceased caused by methadone poisoning shows typi-cal triad of coma,respiratory depression and miosis,which helps forensic experts determine the cause of death related to methadone.Additionally,it is necessary to increase the routine testing of the con-centration of methadone and its combined substances or drugs in deceased,and collect data for the in-terpretation of the results of related cases.

Objective To investigate serum levels of food intake inhibitory factor-1(Nesfatin-1)and Klotho and their predictive value for secondary mild cognitive impairment(MCI)in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 118 elderly patients with T2DM diagnosed and treated in the hospital from April 2023 to March 2024 were selected as the T2DM group,and they were divided into the non-MCI group(n=71)and the MCI group(n=47)according to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(Mo-CA)scale.In addition,110 healthy people in the same hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.The clinical data of the patients were collected.Serum Nesfatin-1 and Klotho levels were detec-ted by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Spearman and Pearson correlation analysis were used to analyze the correlation of serum Nesfatin-1 and Klotho levels with MoCA score and related clinical indicators in elder-ly patients with T2DM.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors for secondary MCI in elderly patients with T2DM.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of serum Nesfatin-1 and Klotho levels for secondary MCI in elderly patients with T2DM.Results Compared with control group,the serum levels of Nesfatin-1 and Klotho were significantly decreased in T2DM group(P<0.05).The serum levels of Nesfatin-1 and Klotho in MCI group were signifi-cantly lower than those in non-MCI group(P<0.05).Compared with the non-MCI group,the levels of fast-ing plasma glucose(FPG),insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR),reactive oxygen species(ROS)and C-reac-tive protein(CRP)were significantly increased in the MCI group(all P<0.05),and were negatively correla-ted with serum Nesfatin-1 and Klotho levels(all P<0.05).The serum levels of Nesfatin-1 and Klotho were positively correlated with MoCA score(P<0.05).Increased levels of FPG and ROS and decreased levels of Nesfatin-1 and Klotho were risk factors for secondary MCI in T2DM patients(P<0.05).The area under the curve of serum Nesfatin-1,Klotho and their combination for predicting secondary MCI in T2DM patients was 0.803,0.829 and 0.932,respectively.The combined prediction of serum nesfatin-1 and Klotho was better than each index alone(Zcombined-Nesfatin-1=3.421,P=0.001,Zcombined-Klotho=2.980,P=0.003).Conclusion The serum lev-els of Nesfatin-1 and Klotho are decreased in T2DM patients,which are significantly correlated with secondary MCI in T2DM patients,and both of them have high predictive value for secondary MCI in T2DM patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum microRNA(miRNA,miR)-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 and hemorrhagic transformation(HT)occurs and prognosis in patients with large ar-tery atherosclerotic cerebral infarction(ACI-LAA)after thrombolysis.Methods A total of 265 patients with ACI-LAA admitted to the hospital from April 2021 to November 2023 were selected as the research objects.According to whether HT occurred after intravenous thrombolysis,they were divided into non-HT group and HT group,and the expression levels of serum miR-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 were compared between the two groups.The general data of patients with ACI-LAA were collected.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of HT occurs in patients with ACI-LAA after thrombolysis.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the efficacy of serum miR-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 expression levels in predicting HT occurs after thrombolysis in patients with ACI-LAA.The patients with ACI-LAA were followed up for 90 d.According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score,the patients were divided into a good prognosis group and a poor prognosis group,and the expression levels of serum miR-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 were compared between the two groups.Univa-riate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of poor progno-sis in patients with ACI-LAA.ROC curve was used to analyze the efficacy of serum miR-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 expression levels in predicting poor prognosis of patients with ACI-LAA.Results HT occurred in 74(27.92％)of 265 patients with ACI-LAA after thrombolysis.Compared with the non-HT group,the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score atadmission,the proportion of hypertension,the proportion of infarct size &ge;10 cm2,and the expression levels of serum miR-21-5p and miR-206 were significantly in-creased in the HT group(P＜0.05).However,the expression level of serum miR-9-5p was decreased(P＜0.05).Hypertension,high NIHSS score at admission,the proportion of infarct size &ge;10 cm2,high expression of miR-21-5p and miR-206 were risk factors for HT occurs in patients with ACI-LAA after intravenous thrombolysis,and high expression of miR-9-5p was a protective factor(P＜0.05).The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve(AUC)and 95％CI of single and combined detection of serum miR-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 for predicting HT occurs were 0.796(0.726-0.866),0.779(0.711-0.846),0.784(0.714-0.854),0.891(0.839-0.943),respectively.Among 265 patients with ACI-LAA,83 patients(31.32％)had poor prognosis at 90 d of follow-up.Compared with the good prognosis group,the age,NIHSS score at admis-sion,the proportion of HT,the proportion of infarct size &ge;10 cm2,and the expression levels of serum miR-21-5p and miR-206 were increased(P＜0.05),and the expression level of serum miR-9-5p was decreased(P＜0.05)in the poor prognosis group.Advanced age,high NIHSS score at admission,HT,infarct size &ge;10 cm2,high expression of miR-21-5p,and high expression of miR-206 were risk factors for poor prognosis of ACI-LAA patients,and high expression of miR-9-5p was a protective factor(P＜0.05).The ROC curve showed that The AUC(95％CI)of single and combined detection of serum miR-9-5p,miR-21-5p and miR-206 for predicting poor prognosis were 0.754(0.691-0.818),0.779(0.719-0.838),0.792(0.815-0.919),0.931(0.902-0.960),respectively.Conclusion Low expression of serum miR-9-5p,high expression of miR-21-5p and high expression of miR-206 are associated with the HT occurs and poor prognosis in patients with ACI-LAA after thrombolysis,and the combined detection of the three indicators has a high predictive value for the HT occurs and poor prognosis.

Clinical practice guidelines represent the best recommendations for patient care. They are developed through systematically reviewing currently available clinical evidence and weighing the relative benefits and risks of various interventions. However, clinical practice guidelines have to go through a long translation cycle from development and revision to clinical promotion and application, facing problems such as scattered distribution, high duplication rate, and low actual utilization. At present, the clinical practice guideline information platform can directly or indirectly solve the problems related to the lengthy revision cycles, decentralized dissemination and limited application of clinical practice guidelines. Therefore, this paper systematically examines different types of clinical practice guideline information platforms and investigates their corresponding challenges and emerging trends in platform design, data integration, and practical implementation, with the aim of clarifying the current status of this field and providing valuable reference for future research on clinical practice guideline information platforms.
