ObjectiveThis study aims to explore the effect of Feiyanning granules on ferroptosis in lung cancer cells and its regulatory function within the nuclear transcription factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）/mouse solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11）/glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） signaling pathway. MethodsThe cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） method was used to detect the effect of Feiyanning granule on the proliferation of A549 lung cancer cells. A549 lung cancer cells were categorized into a blank group， a ferroptosis inhibitor-1 （Fer-1） group （10 μmol·L^-1）， a Feiyanning granules （600 mg·L^-1） group， and a Feiyanning granules + Fer-1 group. After 48 hours of intervention， the activity and morphology of the cells were observed. The CCK-8 method was employed to measure cell viability. Biochemical assays were carried out to measure the levels of reactive oxygen species （ROS）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione （GSH）， and ferrous ions （Fe²⁺） in A549 cells. Western blot was utilized to evaluate the expression levels of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 （Keap1）， Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 proteins. A549 lung cancer cells were categorized into a blank group and a Feiyanning Granule group （600 mg·L^-1）， and mitochondrial morphology was examined via transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. ResultsAfter the intervention of Feiyaning granules， the proliferation of A549 cells was significantly inhibited in a concentration-dependent manner compared with that in the blank group （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the Feiyanning granules group exerted an significantly inhibitory effect on the viability of lung cancer cells （P<0.01）. Compared with that in the Feiyanning granules group， the cell viability in the Feiyanning granules +Fer-1 group was obviously restored （P<0.05）. Compared with the blank group， the Feiyanning Granule group showed a significant increase in the levels of ROS， MDA， and Fe²⁺ （P<0.01）， a significant decrease in the GSH level （P<0.01）， and facilitated ferroptosis. Compared with the blank group， the Feiyanning granules group showed significantly decreased expression of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 proteins and enhanced expression of Keap1 （P<0.01）. Compared with those in the Feiyanning Granule group， the protein levels of Nrf2， SLC7A11， and GPX4 increased significantly （P<0.01）， and the expression of Keap1 decreased significantly in the Feiyanning granules + Fer-1 group （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the Feiyaning granules group exhibited reduced mitochondrial size and increased matrix electron density. ConclusionFeiyanning granules can induce ferroptosis in lung cancer cells， and its underlying mechanism might be associated with the inhibition of the Nrf2/SLC7A11/GPX4 signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the application status of prescription pre-review systems in healthcare institutions of Yunnan province， evaluate their system functions and management capabilities， and provide a practical basis for promoting rational drug use. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted among public healthcare institutions at or above the secondary level in Yunnan province to investigate the deployment status of the systems. A capability maturity assessment framework was constructed， encompassing 6 dimensions and 39 indicators， including real-time prescription review， prescription correlation review， rule setting， evidence-based information support， prescription authority management， and system operation management. This framework was then used to evaluate the institutions that had implemented the pre-review systems. RESULTS A total of 100 valid questionnaires were collected， with 37 institutions having adopted prescription pre-review systems， mainly tertiary hospitals. The system predominantly adopted a modular architecture and was embedded into the hospital information system through application programming interfaces and middleware， providing certain capabilities for real-time prescription risk identification. Evaluation results indicated that basic functions such as reviewing indications， contraindications， and drug compatibility performed well， while deficiencies remained in functions related to parenteral nutrition prescription， review of drug dosage for specific diseases， individual patient characteristic recognition， and rule setting. Moreover， the construction of review centers and establishment of management systems were also not well-developed. CONCLUSIONS The overall application rate of prescription pre-review systems in Yunnan province remains low. System functions and management mechanisms require further improvement. It is recommended to enhance information infrastructure in lower-level institutions and explore regionally unified review models to promote standardized and intelligent development of prescription review practices.

ObjectiveTo observe the activation patterns and functional connectivity in the prefrontal cortex of patients with post-stroke anxiety (PSA) using functional near-infrared spectroscopy, in order to explore the underlying neural mechanism. MethodsFrom December, 2024 to September, 2025, 120 stroke patients were selected in Changzhou De'an Hospital. They were divided into PSA group (n = 60) and non-PSA group (n = 60) according to the score of Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA). All patients wore an 18-channel fNIRS acquisition cap for detection. The differences in resting-state functional connectivity between the frontopolar cortex (FPC) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) were examined in both groups, as well as task-related activation in these brain regions. ResultsResting-state functional connectivity analysis revealed no statistically significant difference in network connectivity between two groups in the FPC and DLPFC regions (|t| < 1.301, P > 0.05). Task-related activation results revealed significantly reduced activation in the contralateral FPC of PSA group compared to the non-PSA group (Z = -2.063, P < 0.05). Activation levels in this region showed a negative correlation with the scores of HAMA (ρ = -0.201, P = 0.028). ConclusionActivation decreased in the contralateral frontal pole during the task state for patients with PSA, and the activation levels negatively correlates with anxiety severities.

Objective: To investigate the molecular mechanism of Syk in phagocytosis induced by CD36 antibodies. Methods: In vitro, two CD36 monoclonal antibodies, GZ1 (IgG2a) and GZ4 (IgG1), at different concentrations were co-incubated with platelets from CD36-positive blood donors, and the affinity of the antibodies for platelets was assessed using flow cytometry. CD36 positive platelets from donors were labeled with Red-SE. The GZ1 and GZ4 antibodies were added together with dye-labeled platelets to peripheral blood from blood donors for phagocytosis experiments. The expression of the Spleen Tyrosine Kinase (Syk), P-Syk, P38 MAPK and P-P38 were detected using Western blot(WB). In the in vitro phagocytosis inhibition assay, Fcγ receptor (FcγR) antibodies or Syk inhibitor (R406) were pre-incubated with monocytes prior to performing the phagocytosis experiment. In vivo experiments were performed using female C57BL/6J mice. R406 was administered via intraperitoneal injection, followed by tail vein infusion of GZ1 or GZ4 antibodies. Additionally, a treatment group was set up in which the antibodies were infused first, followed by administration of R406. Changes in platelet counts were analyzed using a blood routine analyzer, and antibody binding to platelets was detected by flow cytometry. Results: GZ1 had higher affinity for CD36positive platelets than GZ4. The phagocytosis rate induced by GZ1 was significantly higher than that of GZ4 [(42.12±2.25)% vs (16.25±6.45)%, P<0.001]. Moreover, GZ1-mediated platelet phagocytosis mainly depends on FcγRⅠ of monocytes, while GZ4-mediated platelet phagocytosis mainly relies on FcγRⅡ of monocytes. WB results showed that the GZ1 group significantly upregulated the expression of Syk and phosphorylated Syk (P-Syk), and induced phosphorylation of the downstream P38 MAPK signaling pathway. Pretreatment of monocytes with R406 inhibited the phagocytosis of antibodyopsonized platelets by monocytes. After injecting GZ1 or GZ4 antibodies into C57BL/6 female mice through the tail vein, GZ1 mAbs had a stronger binding rate to the platelets compared with GZ4 mAbs, leading to a significant decrease in platelet count. After pre-injecting R406 into mice, the platelet count reduction in both the GZ1 and GZ4 groups was alleviated, and the binding rate of antibodies to platelets was also significantly reduced. However, administration of R406 after antibody injection failed to prevent the decrease in platelet counts in mice. Conclusion: This study indicates that Syk plays an important role in the phagocytosis of anti-CD36 opsonized platelets by monocytes/macrophages and is closely associated with the activation of the P38 MAPK signaling pathway.

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a malignancy characterized by tumor cells originating in the liver or bile ducts, exhibiting features of cholangiocyte differentiation. It poses a significant clinical challenge due to the limited diagnostic and therapeutic options available. Robust animal models are essential for advancing our understanding of CCA pathogenesis and developing effective treatments. This review provides a comprehensive overview of CCA mouse models, highlighting various approaches, including chemical induction, genetically engineered models, and tumor xenografts. Each model is discussed in terms of its establishment techniques, pathological characteristics, and research significance, with a focus on intrahepatic CCA. Chemical induction models, such as diethylnitrosamine- and azoxymethane-induced models, offer insights into tumorigenesis processes, whereas genetically modified models involving alterations in key genes such as Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog, tumor protein 53, and isocitrate dehydrogenase serve as important tools for studying the molecular mechanisms underlying CCA. Xenograft models, including patient-derived xenografts, bridge the gap between experimental research and clinical applications, allowing for precise therapeutic evaluations. By comparing these models, this review underscores their respective advantages and limitations, paving the way for future studies aiming to optimize and innovate CCA modeling strategies.

Objective:To study the efficiency and biosafety of Electrochemical advanced oxidation processes(EAOP)in dental bleaching,and conduct preliminary application.Methods:Indigo carmine and coffee were used as the indicator to assess the effi-cacy of EAOP.High resistance meter was used to measure the resistance of the tooth to verify the safety of the working voltage.Twenty wisdom teeth after tooth extraction were collected,dyed and bleached in vitro to verify the bleaching efficiency.Subsequent-ly,the bleached teeth were examined by scanning electron microscopy,hardness testing,and bacterial adhesion experiments to as-sess surface damage.To determine its cytotoxicity,cells were co-cultured with electrolyte.Initial samples of bleaching tray was prepared,and its durability were verified.Results:The EAOP could bleach indigo carmine within 10 min and coffee within 90 min at an operating voltage of 8 V.The resistance at the groove of the tooth socket was(3.4±1.2)MΩ,and the theoretical calculated current was less than 3 μA.The efficiency of EAOP tooth bleaching was slightly lower than that of traditional office bleaching and higher than that of home bleaching.Compared with the traditional bleaching method,scanning electron microscopy showed that EAOP had less demineralization effect on tooth surface.The tooth hardness before and after bleaching had no statistical difference(P=0.912).The bacterial adhesion test after tooth bleaching showed that EAOP method could reduce about 60％bacterial adhe-sion(P＜0.001).The cytotoxicity test showed that EAOP electrolyte had no obvious toxic effect.The durability test shows that the bleached denture still has good bleaching effect after 20 h of use.Conclusion:Compared with the traditional bleaching method,EAOP bleaching had excellent tooth bleaching effect,little effect on tooth damage,high safety,and the related bleaching devices had good durability.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,brain-computer interface technology has shown significant promise for rehabilitating limb dysfunction in stroke patients.With ongoing research deepening and its broader clinical application,combining brain-computer interface with other rehabilitation therapies to improve limb function has become a focal point of study.OBJECTIVE:To analyze and summarize the efficacy of brain-computer interface combined with various therapies in treating limb dysfunction in stroke patients and to explore the clinical value of these combined strategies.METHODS:The search terms used for the literature review in Chinese databases were"brain-computer interface,BCI,stroke,"while the terms"brain-computer interface,BCI,brain-computer interaction,brain-machine interface,BMI,stroke"were used for English databases.Literature searches were conducted in CNKI,WanFang,VIP,PubMed,Embase,and Web of Science,from the time of database construction to September 2024.Finally,a total of 3 054 articles were retrieved,and 75 articles were included after screening for summarization.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Currently,brain-computer interfaces,used alone or in combination with other treatments such as Chinese medical treatment,conventional rehabilitation therapy,or physical factor therapy,are achieving better outcomes in treating limb dysfunction in stroke patients.However,the efficacy of brain-computer interfaces combined with transcranial direct current stimulation for treating upper and lower limb dysfunctions is still debated.Researchers are increasingly recognizing the feasibility of these combined therapies.Yet,challenges such as limited exploration of therapeutic mechanisms,absence of standardized protocols,and small sample sizes hinder their broad application.Future research should therefore focus on understanding the mechanisms by which brain-computer interfaces can enhance effects when combined with other therapies and on standardizing criteria for clinical trials to enable widespread clinical adoption.
