ObjectiveTo explore the changes in color， odor and chemical components during wine-processing of Chuanxiong Rhizoma（CR）， identify differential markers， and provide a basis for standardizing the process and establishing quality standards. MethodsFifteen batches of CR samples from 4 producing areas were collected. Colorimeter and electronic nose were used to detect the color changes and odor components of CR before and after wine-processing. Multivariate statistical methods including partial least squares-discriminant analysis（PLS-DA）， principal component analysis（PCA）， discriminant factor analysis（DFA） and Fisher discriminant analysis were applied to identify wine-processed CR at different processing stages and establish discriminant models， and differential components were screened out based on variable importance in the projection（VIP） value1. Then， high performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was employed to detect the content changes of four components（ferulic acid， senkyunolide I， senkyunolide A and ligustilide） during the processing stages. ResultsThe differences of wine-processed CR at various stages were primarily reflected in color parameters L^*（brightness value）， a^*（red-green value） and b^*（yellow-blue value）. Based on chromaticity differences， the color reference ranges were established for moderately processed CR， including L^* of 46.75-48.24， a^* of 5.37-6.07 and b^* of 20.32-21.70. In odor analysis， DFA revealed significant differences among processing stages， and 11 odor markers were identified， with four differential markers（4-hydroxy-3-butylphthalide， isopropyl butyrate， L-limonene and 1-methoxyhexane） based on VIP values. HPLC results showed that there was no significant difference of the four components except for ligustilide in wine-processed CR at different stages. ConclusionThis study achieved rapid identification of wine-processed CR with different processing degrees by electronic sensory technology and differential component content detection， with discrimination accuracy rates of 92.4% and 93.272% for color and odor， respectively. This paper also established the reference ranges of main colorimetric parameters for wine-processed CR at different stages， and four differential components were screened out， providing a basis for standardizing the processing of wine-processed CR and establishing quality standards for this decoction pieces.

Objective:To investigate the immunological mechanism by which grifola frondosa extract improves colonic tissue inflammation in rats with ulcerative colitis(UC)through the sphingosine kinase 1(SPHK1)/sphingosine-1-phosphate(S1P)signaling pathway.Methods:Forty male SD rats were randomly divided into five groups:blank group,model group,sulfasalazine treatment group(SASP group),grifola frondosa extract treatment group(GF group),and sulfasalazine combined with grifola frondosa extract treatment group(SASP+GF group).UC model was established using a 3%dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)free drinking method.After one week,each treatment group received sulfasalazine 0.3 g/(kg·d),grifola frondosa extract 10 mg/(kg·d),and combination of both drugs by gavage.During the experiment,the general condition of the rats was observed,the disease activity index(DAI)score was re-corded and the protein content and positive expression levels of SPHK1,S1P,tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2(TRAF2)and TNF-α in rat colon tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry.mRNA and protein expression levels of SPHK1,S1P,TRAF2 and TNF-α in rat colon tissue were measured by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Results:Compared with the blank group,the general condition of the model group rats were poor,the DAI score was significantly increased,and the protein positive expres-sion,mRNA and protein expression levels of SPHK1,S1P,TRAF2 and TNF-α in colon tissue were significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the general condition of the rats in each treatment group improved significantly,the DAI score was decreased(P<0.01),and the positive expression of each target protein was significantly reduced(P<0.01),especially in the GF group and SASP+GF group;the mRNA and protein expression levels of SPHK1 and TRAF2 were reduced to varying degrees(P<0.01 or P<0.05),while the mRNA and protein expression levels of S1P and TNF-α only decreased significantly in the GF group and SASP+GF group(P<0.01).Compared with the SASP group,the GF group only showed a decrease in SPHK1 protein expression,TNF-α mRNA,and protein expression levels,while the SASP+GF group showed significant reductions in all targets(P<0.01 or P<0.05).Compared with the GF group,the SASP+GF group showed significant reductions in SPHK1 protein positive expression and content,S1P mRNA expression levels,and TNF-α protein content(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion:Grifola frondosa extract may alleviate co-lonic tissue inflammation in rats with UC by inhibiting the activation of the SPHK1/S1P pathway,restoring intestinal mucosal barrier function,and improving symptoms of UC.

Objective: To explore the expression of collagen type 1 alpha 2 (COL1A2) in cervical cancer and its correlation with immune infiltration. Methods: Bioinformatics techniques were used to analyze the expression of COL1A2 in cervical cancer. Western blot and RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of COL1A2 in cervical cancer tissues and cell lines. The correlation between the expression of COL1A2 and tumor immune cell infiltration was analyzed by tumor immune estimation resource (TIMER2. 0) . Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to analyze the possible mechanism of COL1A2 in cervical cancer. Jaspar database was used to predict the transcrip- tion factors of COL1A2. Western blot and RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of transcription factors in cervical cancer tissues and cell lines. Results: The expression of COL1A2 was down-regulated in cervical cancer (P < 0. 05) . The expression of COL1A2 was positively correlated with the levels of macrophages and myeloid den- dritic cells (P < 0. 01) . The proportions of 22 types of immune cells were different in different cervical cancer pa- tients. In addition , compared with the high expression group of COL1A2 , the proportion of M0 macrophages , M2 macrophages and resting memory CD4 + T cells increased in the low expression group of COL1A2 , while the propor- tion of CD8 + T cells , activated memory CD4 + T cells , follicular helper T cells , activated NK cells and activated myeloid dendritic cells decreased (P < 0. 05) . GSEA analysis showed that COL1A2 was related to immune-related signaling pathways , including Notch signaling pathway , interleukin-6/janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (IL6/JAK/STAT3) , Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway , etc. (P < 0. 01) . Jaspar database pre- dicted that the transcription factor of COL1A2 was paired box protein 5 (PAX5) , and the expression of PAX5 de- creased in cervical cancer (P < 0. 05) . Conclusion COL1A2 is expected to become a potential diagnostic biomar- ker and immunotherapy target for cervical cancer.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) combined with sodium hyaluronate solution for facial microdroplet injection in improving facial skin photoaging.Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. From January to July 2024, patients with facial photoaging problems were recruited from the Plastic Surgery Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University and randomly divided into a monotherapy group (sodium hyaluronate solution droplet injection) and a combination therapy group (BTX-A + sodium hyaluronate solution droplet injection) by hierarchical block randomization method. The treatment regimen was 3 months, with one treatment for each month, with a total of 3 treatment. The combination therapy group only used a combination therapy of two drugs (BTX-A 25 U+ 5 ml sodium hyaluronate solution) during the first injection. During the three treatments of the monotherapy group and the second and third treatments of the combination therapy group, 5 ml of sodium hyaluronate solution was injected as the solo ingredient. Follow up was conducted at 1, 2, and 4 months after the last treatment. Serum superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were detected by test kit. Five skin texture indicators (moisture content, transepidermal water loss rate, elasticity, glossiness, and pH) were evaluated using the German CK skin tester. VISIA skin detector was used for facial two-dimensional photography and skin condition analysis. Clinical efficacy (significant improvement, obvious improvement, improvement, no improvement) and global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) scores on a 5-point scale were recorded. Patient satisfaction levels (very satisfied, satisfied, and dissatisfied) were investigated. The data were analyzed using SPSS 27.0 software. Count data was presented as examples and(or) percentages, and analyzed using a chi-square test. Normal distribution measurement data was represented by Mean±SD and analyzed using t-test. Results:A total of 100 patients were included, with 50 cases in each group. There were 17 males and 33 females in the monotherapy group, with an age of (31.3±7.1) years, and there were 5, 14, 29 and 2 patients in the Ⅰ to Ⅳ types of Glogau skin photoaging classification, respectively. There were 15 males and 35 females in the combination therapy group, with an age of (32.1±8.4) years old, and there were 4, 15, 27 and 4 patients in the Ⅰ to Ⅳ types of Glogau skin photoaging classification, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in gender composition, age, and Glogau skin photoaging classification between the two groups (all P>0.05). One month after the first treatment, both groups showed an increase in SOD activity and a decrease in MDA levels, with more significant changes observed in the combination therapy group ( P<0.01 for both). At the follow-up of 1, 2, and 4 months after the last treatment, the combination therapy group outperformed the monotherapy group in all 5 skin texture indicators (all P<0.05). One month after the last treatment, the total effective rate of the combination therapy group was 76.0% (38/50), which were significantly higher than that of the monotherapy group’s 50.0% (25/50) ( P<0.05); in addition, the combination therapy group showed significant advantages in facial aesthetic GAIS scores, as well as patient satisfaction, with a satisfaction rate of up to 98.0% (49/50), which was higher than the 88.0% (44/50) of the monotherapy group ( P<0.01). Throughout the entire treatment process, neither group experienced serious adverse reactions. Conclusion:Facial microdroplet injection of BTX-A combined with sodium hyaluronate solution effectively improves symptoms of facial skin photoaging, enhancing skin hydration and elasticity, reducing transepidermal water loss, improving skin gloss, regulating skin pH, and enhancing skin antioxidant capacity, ultimately achieving facial skin rejuvenation. This method is safe, effective and holds high clinical relevence and patient satisfaction.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of cyclin dependent kinase inhibitor 3(CDKN3)in human papillomavirus type 16(HPV16)-positive cervical cancer.Methods CDKN3 expression in pan-cancer was retrieved and downloaded from the Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA)platform,and the expression levels of CDKN3 between normal cervical tissues(13 samples)and cervical cancer tissues(306 samples)were compared.Subsequently,GSE39001 data of HPV16-positive cervical cancer was sourced and downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database,and the expression levels of CDKN3 mRNA in HPV16-positive cervical cancer tissues(43 samples)and normal cervical tissues(12 samples)were compared.Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of CDKN3 in 12 ca-ses of HPV16-positive cervical cancer,12 cases of HPV16-positive cervical precancerous lesions,10 cases of HPV16-positive chronic cervicitis and 7 cases of HPV-negative normal cervical samples collected from the Af-filiated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University.SiHa(HPV16-positive),HeLa(HPV18-positive)and HCC94(HPV-negative)cervical cancer cell lines were selected,and their CDKN3 expression were detected by West-ern blot.Results The GEPIA platform analysis showed that CDKN3 was highly expressed in pan-cancer,and the expression level of CDKN3 in cervical cancer tissue was significantly higher than that in normal cervical tissue(P<0.05).The GEO dataset reflected a significantly increased CDKN3 mRNA expression level in HPV16-positive cervical cancer compared to normal cervical tissue(P<0.001).Immunohistochemical verifi-cation showed that the positive expression rates of CDKN3 in HPV16-positive cervical cancer,HPV16-positive cervical precancerous lesion,HPV16-positive chronic cervicitis and HPV-negative normal cervical tissues were 91.7%,58.3%,0 and 0,respectively.Western blot analysis of cervical cancer cells showed that the expression level of CDKN3 in SiHa(HPV16-positive)cells was significantly higher than that in HeLa(HPV18-positive)and HCC94(HPV-negative)cells(P<0.05).Conclusion CDKN3 is a new oncogene of HPV16-positive cer-vical cancer,which may be used as a marker of cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer screening,and may provide a theoretical basis for subsequent mechanism research and targeted therapy.

Objective:To analyze the application effect of PAD teaching mode in Epidemiology teaching,and to investigate students'suggestions for improving PAD class,so as to provide some thoughts and basis for improving teaching reform.Methods:PAD class was introduced into Epidemiology teaching.Two cross-sectional surveys were conducted after class,and questionnaires about PAD learning interests and suggestions for improvement were anonymously collected.The teaching effect was analyzed and suggestions for rectification were put forward.Results:Among the 134 students majoring in medical laboratory science,the score rate of each learning interest survey item of PAD teaching mode was more than 80% .And 57.46% of the students thought that discussion sessions should be added.The scores of chapter test in PAD mode class was higher than that in traditional mode class(t=2.938,P＜0.01).Conclusions:PAD class can enhance learning interest and knowledge mastery.The time schedule of teaching and discussion should be adjusted in time according to students'wishes,and after-school exercises and counseling should be appropriately increased to promote the application of PAD class in Epidemiology teaching.

BACKGROUND:Lingual movable wing is a new type of lingual orthodontic technique and the different stretching lengths of the wring affect the torque control effect of anterior teeth.However,there is yet no related biomechanical research. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the displacement trend of dentition during adduction of mandibular anterior teeth and the effect of different wing stretching lengths on the biomechanical effect of mandibular anterior teeth. METHODS:The data of the mandible and lower dentition were collected by cone-beam CT and reconstructed using Mimics software to establish a three-dimensional finite element model of mandibular anterior teeth adducted by the lingual movable wing.The ANSYS software was used to analyze the initial displacement of the mandibular anterior teeth under the following conditions:A,2 mm stretching length;B,2.5 mm stretching length;C,3 mm stretching length;and D,3.5 mm stretching length. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The trend of initial displacement of lower dentition:The central incisors moved lingually with depression,the lateral incisors and canines moved mildly lingually with mesial lingual torsion,the second premolar was tilted distally with a marked lingual inclination and the first molar showed an overall mesial inclination with mesial crown eversion.Therefore,in the adduction cases of mandibular tooth extraction,attention should be paid to the lingual movement of the second premolar,which could be offset by corresponding techniques in clinic.The trend of anterior tooth displacement in all directions:from condition A to condition D,in the sagittal direction,the difference value in crown-root displacement of central incisors changed from-11.891 μm to-5.757 4 μm,indicating that the central incisor changes from oblique movement to overall movement.The difference value in crown-root displacement of lateral incisors changed from-11.828 1 μm to-6.711 45 μm,and that of canines changed from-7.572 3 μm to-4.695 5 μm,indicating that the oblique movement of the lateral incisors and canines is also changing to an overall movement.In the vertical direction,from condition A to condition D,the reduction of incisors was gradually increased,while that of canines was gradually decreased.These findings indicate that the stretching length of the wing can affect the oblique movement trend of the anterior teeth.As the wing continues to stretch,the torque control of the lower anterior teeth will become better.
