Objective To explore the mechanism by which breast cancer-derived LncRNA OIP5-AS1 regulates the migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of breast cancer cells through the M2 polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM). Methods MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into the control group (blank control), the NC group (transfected with NC siRNA), and the si-OIP5 group (transfected with LncRNA OIP5-AS1 siRNA). The mRNA expression levels of LncRNAs OIP5-AS1, IL-4, and IL-13 were detected by RT-qPCR. The protein expression levels of IL-4 and IL-13 in the culture supernatant were detected by ELISA. The culture supernatant from the control group was added to RPMI 1640 medium at different volume ratios to induce the polarization of M0 macrophages into TAMs. The mRNA expression of CD206 in TAMs was detected by RT-qPCR. M0-type macrophages were induced with the medium supernatant of the NC group/si-OIP5 group, and the expression of CD206 was detected by Western blot. Subsequently, a co-culture model of macrophage and MDA-MB-231 was constructed to evaluate the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells and detect the expression changes in Vimentin, N-cadherin and E-cadherin. Results Compared with the control and NC groups, the si-OIP5 group showed significantly downregulated expression of LncRNA OIP5-AS1 (P<0.001) and significantly decreased IL-13 mRNA and protein levels (P<0.05). Meanwhile, no significant difference was observed in the expression of IL-4 among the groups. Conditioned medium induced CD206 expression in M0 macrophages in a volume-dependent manner, with the strongest effect at a 40% volume ratio (P<0.001). The CD206 protein level in the si-OIP5 group significantly decreased (P<0.01). In the co-culture system, the migration and invasion abilities of MDA-MB-231 cells in the si-OIP5 group significantly weakened (P<0.001), the expression of E-cadherin was upregulated, and the expression levels of N-cadherin and Vimentin were downregulated (both P<0.01). Conclusion Breast cancer-derived LncRNA OIP5-AS1 can induce TAM M2 polarization mediated by IL-13, thereby promoting the migration, invasion, and EMT of breast cancer cells.

ObjectiveTo examine the influences of Shenfu injection on the endogenous metabolic byproducts in the myocardium of the rat model exhibiting chronic heart failure， thus deciphering the therapeutic mechanism of the Qi-reinforcing and Yang-warming method. MethodsSD rats were randomly allocated into a control group and a modeling group. Chronic heart failure with heart-Yang deficiency syndrome in rats was modeled by multi-point subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol， and the rats were fed for 14 days after modeling. The successfully modeled rats were randomized into model， Shenfu injection （6.0 mL·kg^-1）， and trimetazidine （10 mg·kg^-1） groups and treated with corresponding agents for 15 days. The control group and the model group were injected with equal doses of normal saline， and the samples were collected after the intervention was completed. Cardiac color ultrasound was performed. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe histopathological morphology， and the serum level of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP） was assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The mitochondrial morphological and structural changes of cardiomyocytes were observed by transmission electron microscopy， and the metabolic profiling was carried out by ultra high performance liquid chromatography-quantitative exactive-mass spectrometry （UHPLC-QE-MS）. Differential metabolites were screened and identified by orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） and other methods， and then the MetaboAnalyst database was used for further screening. The relevant biological pathways were obtained through pathway enrichment analysis. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve was established to evaluate the diagnostic value of each potential biomarker for myocardial injury and the evaluation value for drug efficacy. ResultsThe results of color ultrasound showed that Shenfu Injection improved the cardiac function indexes of model rats （P<0.05）. The results of HE staining showed that Shenfu injection effectively alleviated the pathological phenomena such as myocardial tissue structure disorder and inflammatory cell infiltration in model rats. The results of ELISA showed that Shenfu injection effectively regulated the serum NT-proBNP level in the model rats. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） showed that Shenfu injection effectively restored the mitochondrial morphological structure. The results of metabolomics showed that the metabolic phenotypes of myocardial samples presented markedly differences between groups. Nine differential metabolites could be significantly reversed in the Shenfu injection group， involving three metabolic pathways： pyruvate metabolism， histidine metabolism， and citric acid cycle （TCA cycle）. The results of ROC analysis showed that the area under the curve （AUC） values of all metabolites were between 0.75 and 1.0， indicating that the differential metabolites had high diagnostic accuracy for myocardial injury， and the changes in their expression levels could be used as potential markers for efficacy evaluation. ConclusionShenfu injection significantly alleviated the damage of cardiac function， myocardium， and mitochondrial structure in the rat model of chronic heart failure with heart-Yang deficiency syndrome by ameliorating energy metabolism remodeling. Reinforcing Qi and warming Yang is a key method for treating chronic heart failure with heart-Yang deficiency syndrome.

In vitro,platelets are readily activated,which complicates the process of quality control.In con-trast,nanoparticles possess distinct advantages due to their small size,high surface area ratio,biocompatibili-ty,and modifiability.These properties enable them to inhibit platelet aggregation through encapsulation or multi-modification,thereby ensuring the stability of quality control products for clinical platelet assays.This paper delineates the properties of the two existent forms of platelet-nanoparticle complexes,their synthesis principles,and their applications in the medical field.The text goes on to examine the preparation methods of some platelet-nanoparticle complexes and their applications in the fields of cancer therapy,wound healing,and immune disorders.It also explores the potential relationship between platelet-nanoparticle complexes and exo-some-nanoparticle complexes.Additionally,the future research directions of nanoparticles in platelet plasmino-genics are discussed in this paper,emphasizing the effects of nanoparticle concentration,size,and surface modi-fication on platelet aggregation.This provides a theoretical basis for the development of stable and controllable platelet plasminogenics.

This article interpreted the basic requirements for humanistic caring of patients in the operating room, the environment and facilities for humanistic caring, the procedures and measures for humanistic caring, and the quality management framework, aiming to assist administrators and clinical practitioners across various levels of medical institutions in accurately understanding and effectively implementing the standard, and to provide essential textual reference and practical guidance for promoting the application of the standard.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic treatment of superficial non-ampullary duodenal adenoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data and follow-up information of patients diagnosed with superficial duodenal non-ampullary adenomas via preoperative endoscopy and treated endoscopically at Peking University First Hospital between January 2013 and January 2024. The overall en bloc resection rate, complete resection rate of the lesion, perioperative complications, and recurrence rates were evaluated. Patients were categorized into three groups based on their treatment modality: endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR)（ n=46）, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD)（ n=16）, and modified ESD (ESD with snare, ESD-S)（ n=24）. Comparative analyses were conducted to evaluate operative time, en bloc resection rate, and complete resection rate among the three groups. Results:Among 86 patients, the overall en bloc and complete resection rates were 87.2% (75/86) and 86.0% (74/86), respectively. No case of delayed bleeding was observed during the perioperative period. Intraoperative perforation occurred in two patients, both of whom improved following conservative management. Delayed perforation was noted in four patients, and three of them were successfully managed with surgical intervention, while one case was resolved after conservative treatment. During the follow-up period, local recurrence was identified in two patients. Following re-treatment with endoscopy and continuous surveillance, no further recurrence was observed. The operative times for the EMR group, ESD-S group, and ESD group were 4 (1-36) minutes, 25 (5-190) minutes, and 46 (5-150) minutes, respectively. Significant differences were observed in operative times among the three groups ( Hc=49.892, P<0.001). The en bloc resection rates for the EMR, ESD-S, and ESD groups were 80.4% (37/46), 91.7% (22/24), and 100.0% (16/16), respectively. The complete resection rates were 80.4% (37/46), 91.7% (22/24), and 93.8% (15/16) for the respective groups. Conclusion:Endoscopic treatment demonstrates favorable efficacy and safety for superficial non-ampullary duodenal adenoma. In addition to traditional EMR and ESD, ESD-S is also an effective procedure for endoscopic treatment of non-ampullary duodenal adenoma.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of polyethylene glycol (PEG) electrolyte powder versus oral sulfate solution (OSS) for bowel preparation and their impacts on colonoscopy quality.Methods:This single-center, retrospective, cross-sectional study included patients who underwent colonoscopy with PEG or OSS at Endoscopy Center, central branch of Peking University First Hospital between January 1 st and December 31 st 2024. Indicators including bowel cleanliness score, adenoma detection rate (ADR), sessile serrated lesion detection rate (SSLDR) were analyzed, and age-stratified subgroup analysis were performed. Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors associated with excellent bowel cleanliness. The quality of colonoscopy under two bowel preparation regimens were evaluated. Results:A total of 15 936 patients with 13 321 in the PEG group and 2 615 in the OSS group were included. The PEG group had higher overall Boston bowel preparation scale score [8.00 (7.00, 8.00) VS 8.00 (6.00, 8.00), Z=-5.560, P<0.001], especially in the transverse and descending colon, and higher foam scores in the descending colon ( Z=-2.589, P=0.010). Use of PEG, female gender, afternoon examination, and younger age positively predicted excellent cleanliness. ADR [44.8% (5 965/13 321) VS 39.2% (1 024/2 615), P<0.001] and SSLDR [7.8% (1 035/13 321) VS 6.0% (157/2 615), P=0.002] were higher in the PEG group than those in the OSS group. Age stratification confirmed PEG's superiority in both >50 and ≤50 age groups, with ADRs of 54.0% (4 808/8 910) and 31.0% (2 181/7 026), respectively, and SSLDRs of 8.1% (721/8 910) and 6.7% (471/7 026), respectively. For those >50 years old, the PEG group detected more elevated polyps. Conclusion:While both regimens provide adequate bowel preparation, PEG regimen demonstrates superior cleansing quality, ADR, SSLDR, over OSS regimen, particularly in patients over 50 years old, and those with higher risk polyps.

Objective:Using graph theory analysis, this study compares the topological and node attributes of the brain network to explore the differences in gray matter structural and functional network topological properties between bipolar depression (BD) patients with and without obsessive-compulsive symptoms (OCS).Methods:A total of 90 BD patients (27 males, 63 females; median age 19.0(22.0, 25.0) years) were recruited from the psychiatric outpatient and inpatient departments of the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinan University between March 2018 and December 2022. Fifty healthy controls (19 males, 31 females; median age: 23.0 (20.0, 27.0) years) were also enrolled. The BD patients were divided into two groups based on the presence of OCS: 53 with OCS (OCS group) and 37 without OCS (NOCS group). Resting-state structural and functional MRI data were collected for all participants to construct gray matter structural and functional networks. Graph therory analysis was applied to calculate network topological metrics such as small-world properties. The structural and functional network topological properties were compared among the BD-OCS, BD-nOCS, and control groups. Partial correlation analysis was conducted to examine the association between network topological metrics with significant group differences and Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) scores. Support vector machines (SVM) were used with these metrics as classification feature values to improve diagnostic accuracy through pairwise group classification.Results:Structural network analysis of gray matter: compared to HC group, both OCS group and NOCS group showed increased shortest path length and standardized characteristic path length (shortest path length: 0.78 and 0.80 vs. 0.69; normalized characteristic path length: 0.48 and 0.49 vs. 0.43), and decreased global efficiency (0.21 and 0.21 vs. 0.24) compared to the HC group (permutation test, all P<0.05). Compared to NOCS and HC groups, the OCS group showed increased nodal centrality and betweenness centrality in the right rolandic operculum and left superior occipital gyrus (permutation test, all P<0.05). Functional network analysis of gray matter: compared to the NOCS group, the OCS group showed increased node efficiency and decreased betweenness centrality in the cerebellum ( t=2.15, -3.04; all P<0.05); compared to HC groups, the OCS group showed decreased betweenness centrality in the cerebellum and left inferior frontal gyrus, along with increased node centrality and nodal efficiency in the right transverse temporal gyrus ( t=-2.99, -3.61, 3.06, 3.10; all P<0.05). In the OCS group, betweenness centrality in the left inferior frontal gyrus positively correlated with Y-BOCS scale obsessive thinking score ( r=0.303, P=0.034). Nodal centrality and node efficiency of the right transverse temporal gyrus negatively correlated with Y-BOCS total score ( r=-0.301, -0.311) and Y-BOCS obsessional thinking scores ( r=-0.385, -0.380) separately(all P<0.05). SVM classification: the combined network features achieved an area under the curve of 0.80 in distinguising OCS from NOCS patients. Conclusion:BD-OCS and BD-nOCS patients both exhibit consistent changes in gray matter structural network topology, with the OCS group displaying more pronounced nodal topological abnormalities. Multi-network feature integration demostrates potential for diagnostic classfication.

Objective: To investigate the objective characteristics of tongue manifestation in different stages of damp-heat syndrome in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Methods: A cross-sectional study enrolled 134 patients with DKD G3-5 stages who met the diagnostic criteria for damp-heat syndrome in DKD. The patients were treated at Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, from May 2023 to January 2024. The patients were divided into three groups: DKD G3, DKD G4, and DKD G5 stage, with 53, 33, and 48 patients in each group, respectively. Clinical general data (gender, age, and body mass index) and damp-heat syndrome scores were collected from the patients. The YZAI-02 traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) AI Tongue Image Acquisition Device was used to capture tongue images from these patients. The accompanying AI Open Platform for TCM Tongue Diagnosis of the device was used to analyze and extract tongue manifestation features, including objective data on tongue color, tongue quality, coating color, and coating texture. Clinical data and objective tongue manifestation characteristics were compared among patients with DKD G3-5 based on their DKD damp-heat syndrome status. Results: No statistically significant difference in gender or body mass index was observed among the three patient groups. The DKD G3 stage group had the highest age (P<0.05). The DKD G3 stage group had a lower score for symptoms of poor appetite and anorexia(P<0.05) than the DKD G5 group. No statistically significant difference was observed in damp-heat syndrome scores among the three groups. Compared with the DKD G5 stage group, the DKD G3 stage group showed a decreased proportion of pale color at the tip and edges of the tongue (P<0.05). The DKD G4 stage group exhibited an increased proportion of crimson at the root of the tongue, a decreased proportion of thick white tongue coating at the root, a decreased proportion of pale color at the tip and edges of the tongue, an increased hue value (indicating color tone) of the tongue color in the middle, an increased brightness value (indicating color lightness) of the tongue coating color in the middle, and an increased thickness of the tongue coating (P<0.05). No statistically significant difference was observed in other tongue color proportions, color chroma values, body characteristics, coating color proportions, coating color chroma values, and coating texture characteristics among the three groups. Conclusion Tongue features differ in different stages of DKD damp-heat syndrome in multiple dimensions, enabling the inference that during the DKD G5 stage, the degree of qi and blood deficiency in the kidneys, heart, lungs, liver, gallbladder, spleen, and stomach is prominent. Dampness is more likely to accumulate in the lower jiao, particularly in the kidneys, whereas heat evil in the spleen and stomach is the most severe. These insights provide novel ideas for the clinical treatment of DKD.
