ObjectiveTaking Aurantii Fructus Immaturus juice（AFI）-processed Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma（AMR） as an example， this study aims to systematically compare the volatile and non-volatile components of AMR and its processed products， investigate the key differential components， evaluate their anti-inflammatory activities， and elucidate the synergistic mechanism of processing. MethodsThe chemical compositions of volatile and non-volatile components in AMR and AFI-processed AMR were systematically characterized using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry（GC-MS） and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）， with relative mass fractions and response values determined separately. Volatile components were identified through searches in the National Institute of Standards and Technology（NIST）17 database， comparison with retention index（RI） and fragmentation pattern matching. Non-volatile components were identified by searching Waters Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） spectral library， in conjunction with PubChem and MassBank， characteristic fragmentation patterns and response values were also used to support identification. Differential components were screened using principal component analysis（PCA）， orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）， with variable importance in the projection（VIP） value >1. Components with high log₂fold change（FC） among major differential groups were selected as those exhibiting significant changes before and after processing. The anti-inflammatory activity of the differential compounds was evaluated by assessing their effects on nitric oxide（NO） production in a lipopolysaccharide（LPS）-induced RAW264.7 macrophage model. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） was used to detect the effects of the differential components on tumor necrosis factor（TNF）-α， interleukin（IL）-1β， IL-6， and monocyte chemotactic protein（MCP）-1 levels， and immunofluorescence（IF） was employed to assess their effects on nuclear transcription factor（NF）-κB p65 translocation， thereby elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms. ResultsA total of 36 compounds were identified in the volatile components of AMR and AFI-processed AMR， among which， sesquiterpenes and monoterpenes were significantly increased after processing. In the non-volatile components， 36 compounds were identified， and the main differential components were flavonoids， sesquiterpenoids， and triterpenoids. Flavonoids were the primary differential components distinguishing AMR from its processed products， representing compounds directly introduced during processing. Five compounds， including atractylenolide Ⅲ， tangeritin， nobiletin， hesperidin and narirutin， were selected as representatives of three classes based on their most prominent differential expression among different compound types for subsequent anti-inflammatory activity studies. The results showed that 100 μmol·L^-1 tangerine and narirutin could significantly inhibit LPS-induced NO production（P<0.01） in a concentration-dependent manner. Tangeritin was able to significantly inhibit the levels of TNF-α and MCP-1 secreted by RAW264.7（P<0.05）， while narirutin significantly inhibited the levels of TNF-α， IL-1β， MCP-1 and IL-6（P<0.01）. IF revealed that both tangeritin and narirutin significantly blocked the translocation of NF-κB p65 from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. ConclusionAFI-processed AMR significantly alters the chemical composition profile of AMR， and the newly introduced flavonoid components during processing may be key to its enhanced anti-inflammatory effects.

The linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC), composed of heme-oxidized IRP2 ubiquitin ligase 1-interacting protein (HOIP), haem-oxidized IRP2 ubiquitin ligase-1(HOIL-1), and SHANK-associated RBCK1 homology-domain-interacting protein (SHARPIN), and its specific deubiquitinating enzyme OTULIN, regulates the dynamic balance of Met1-linked linear ubiquitination and maintains ubiquitin signaling homeostasis. Their precise interaction plays a central role in the regulation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and type I interferon signaling, inflammatory response, and cell survival and death. Dysregulation of the LUBAC-OTULIN axis can lead to aberrant immune and inflammatory signaling, immunodeficiency, and dysregulation of receptor-interacting protein kinase 1-mediated apoptosis or necroptosis. Genetic defects in OTULIN and LUBAC are associated with rare autoinflammatory diseases such as OTULIN-related autoinflammatory syndrome (ORAS) and HOIP/HOIL-1/SHARPIN deficiency, respectively, with complex clinical phenotypes and gene dose correlation. Current treatments primarily rely on glucocorticoids and tumor necrosis factor inhibitors, and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has shown potential curative value in some patients with severe ORAS. This review summarizes the molecular composition, interaction mechanisms, and pathogenic roles of the LUBAC-OTULIN axis in rare autoinflammatory diseases, providing reference for the development of targeted therapeutic strategies.

Objective: To identify research priorities on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide a theoretical base for improving their physical and mental health. Methods: In May 2025, 77 experts in the fields of health and education from 11 cities in Zhejiang Province were selected by convenient sampling method to participate in the first round of expert consultation. In June, 2025, snowball sampling was used to expand to 194 experts for the second round of consultation, and it was convenient to select 21 students from primary schools to high schools in Zhejiang Province and 29 parents to empower the evaluation criteria. It applied the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative (CHNRI) method in a structured process, which encompassed the definition of the research field, generation of research ideas, scoring, and quantitative ranking of priorities. Research ideas were evaluated against 6 predefined criteria: effectiveness, safety, answerability, feasibility, sustainability, and scientific significance. Results: After 2 rounds of structured consultations, 81 research ideas on physical and mental comorbidity among children and adolescents were established and classified into 7 subthemes: epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors, optimization of primary service systems and policies, comprehensive intervention strategies for physical and mental comorbidity, biological mechanisms and clinical research, the impact of education and environment on physical and mental health, special populations and social support, and digital and technology driven disease prevention and intervention. The top 10 research priorities primarily centered on the subdomain of "epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors" (5 items). The top 3 research priorities were "the association between outdoor activity duration and the incidence of common diseases (including mental disorders) among children and adolescents" "the impact of outdoor activity duration on the physical and mental health of adolescents" "comprehensive intervention strategies for myopia, obesity, and their comorbidities among children and adolescents". Conclusion The framework of priority issues in the field of psychosomatic comorbidity of children and adolescents in Zhejiang Province based on CHNRI method provides a reference for optimizing the allocation of provincial research resources.

Objective:To explore the potential category characteristics of social participation in colorectal cancer patients with stoma and analyze the influencing factors of different potential categories, so as to provide references for formulating and implementing targeted nursing measures.Methods:By using the convenience sampling method, colorectal cancer patients with stoma who were hospitalized or had outpatient follow-up visits at Guilin Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine and the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University from January to December 2024 were selected as the survey subjects. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using the general information questionnaire, the voluntary participation Questionnaire, the Existential Anxiety Scale, the Family Support Scale and the Social Support Rating Scale. Potential profile analysis was used to identify the categories of social participation characteristics of colorectal cancer stoma patients, and multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the related influencing factors.Results:A total of 240 valid questionnaires were finally retrieved. Among the 240 colorectal cancer patients with stoma, 126 were male and 114 were female, aged 34-75 (55.63 ± 6.52) years. The social participation score of colorectal cancer patients with stoma was (55.84 ± 8.62) points. The results of potential profile analysis showed that the social participation of colorectal cancer patients with stoma could be divided into three potential categories: low participation-inefficient social life type accounted for 38.3% (92/240), medium participation-efficient indoor participation type accounted for 36.3% (87/240), and high participation-efficient outdoor participation type accounted for 25.4% (61/240). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, taking the high participation-efficient outdoor participation type as the reference, age, educational level, presence absence of stoma-related complications, existence of meaningless anxiety, family support, and social support were the influencing factors of low participation-inefficient social life type and medium participation-efficient indoor participation type ( OR values ranged from 0.163 to 1.879, all P<0.05). Conclusions:There are obvious classification characteristics in the social participation of colorectal cancer patients with stoma. Nursing staff can formulate and implement targeted intervention strategies based on different classification characteristics. Starting from the existence of meaningless anxiety in patients, an effective family and social support system should be established to improve their social participation.

AIM To observe the effects of Yiqi Jiedu Tongluo Formula(YQJDTL)on renal microvascular endothelial function and prevention of renal injury in a rat model of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).METHODS The SD rats were randomly divided into a normal group and a model group.The model group was administered with high-fat diet combined with a single intraperitoneal injection of STZ to establish the T2DM model.The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into the model group,the canagliflozin group(9 mg/kg),and the low-dose and high-dose YQJDTL groups(4.77,9.45 g/kg).The corresponding doses of the drug were administered by gavage for a total of 12 weeks,during which the rats underwent observation of their general condition and blood glucose changes.After the end of administration,the rats had their levels of renal index,24-hour UP,serum SCr,BUN,TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C,ET-1 and NOS measured;their changes in renal microvasculature and the degree of renal fibrosis observed using HE staining,Masson staining,PAS staining,and PASM staining;their ultrastructure of the glomeruli observed using transmission electron microscopy;their renal protein expressions of TGF-β,SMAD2,SMAD3,Col-1,VEGFA and PKC detected by immunohistochemical staining and Western blot;and their renal mRNA expressions of VEGFA,TGF-β,SMAD2 determined by RT-qPCR.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the high-dose YQJDTL group showed decreased levels of renal index,blood glucose,TG,TC,HDL,24 h UP,BUN,SCr and ET-1(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);increased LDL and NOS levels(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);reduced renal inflammatory infiltration and fibrosis degree,inhibited fusion of foot processes and thickening of basement membrane;decreased renal protein expressions of TGF-β,SMAD2,SMAD3,VEGFA,PKC and Col-1(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and decreased mRNA expressions of VEGFA,TGF-β and SMAD2(P＜0.01).CONCLUSION In the rat models of T2DM,YQJDTL can reduce their levels of blood glucose and lipids by improving the renal indices levels and the renal microvascular endothelial functions to alleviate renal fibrosis and microangiopathy as well,and the mechanism may be associated with the down-regulated expressions of TGF-β/SMAD and VEGF pathway-related proteins.

The inflammatory response is a natural defense mechanism of the body that occurs in response to infection or injury,serving as a critical starting point for the onset and progression of various diseases.Glycolysis,an essential pathway for energy production within the body,plays a pivotal role in both the initiation and advancement of the inflammatory response.Pyruvate kinase M2(PKM2),recog-nized as a key rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis,not only contributes to the inflammatory process by mediating glycolysis and lactylation modifications through such mechanisms as nuclear translocation and dimer formation,but also regulates the inflammatory response by modulating immune responses in B cells,T cells,macrophages,and neutrophils.This review aims to summarize the mechanisms involved in targeting PKM2 to suppress inflammation,providing new insights into the prevention and treatment of inflammatory reactions.

To analyze the prevalence, drug resistance and whole genome characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) in respiratory throat swab samples of hospitalized children with pneumonia in Suzhou City from 2023 to 2024. Throat swab samples of hospitalized children aged 0-14 years old with pneumonia in Suzhou were collected from September 2023 to September 2024. Real-time fluorenscence quantitative PCR technology was used to detect MP nucleic acid. The results showed that the positive rate of MP in 3 235 samples was 22.44% (726/3 235), with a rate of 55.00% in week 47 of 2023. The positive rate of MP increased with age ( χ2=45.842, P<0.001). The study selected MP nucleic acid test positive samples from week 20 (5.13-5.19) to week 23 (6.3-6.9) of 2024 for isolation, culture and resistance phenotype detection. About 31 MP strains were successfully isolated and cultured, all of which were resistant to macrolides. The next-generation sequencing technology and nanopore sequencing technology were used for genome sequencing. All 31 strains carried the A2063G mutation, with the main prevalent genotype being the P1-1, and the main mlST type being the ST3. Despite the overall genomic similarity between strains being over 99%, there were significant differences between the P1-1 and P1-2 strains in the P1 gene region. In summary, from 2023 to 2024, the main MP type prevalent in Suzhou City is the P1-1 genotype. All isolated MP strains carry an A2063G resistance site mutation and are resistant to macrolides, requiring continuous monitoring and further research.

Object·To explore the effects of comorbid obsessive-compulsive personality disorder(OCPD)on the behavioral inhibition system(BIS)/behavioral activation system(BAS)in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD).Methods·A total of 247 patients with unmedicated OCD diagnosed in the Mental Health Center,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from 2014 to 2018 were included and divided into an OCD group(n=202),and an OCD+OCPD group(n=45),and 107 healthy controls were recruited as a comparison group.Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsion Scale(YBOCS),BIS/BAS Scale,Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD),and Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)were used to assess psychopathological features.Gender differences among the three groups were analyzed using the x2 test.One-way analysis of variance(ANOVA)was used to compare differences in demographic characteristics,psychopathological features,and BIS/BAS scores,followed by the least significant difference(LSD)test for pairwise comparisons.Regression analysis was conducted to explore the relationships between psychopathological features and BIS/BAS scores.Results·There were no significant differences in gender,age,and years of education among the three groups.The scores of YBOCS(t=2.925,P=0.004),HAMD(t=2.130,P=0.034)and HAMA(t=2.568,P=0.011)in the OCD+OCPD group were significantly higher than those in the OCD group.There were statistically significant differences in BIS and BAS scores among the three groups(BIS:F=39.573,P＜0.001;BAS:F=3.915,P=0.021).The results showed that for BIS,there were statistically significant differences in pairwise comparisons among the three groups(OCD+OCPD vs OCD:P=0.002;OCD+OCPD vs HC:P＜0.001;OCD vs HC:P＜0.001),and the scores were OCD+OCPD＜OCD＜HC from low to high.For BAS,the OCD group scored significantly higher than the OCD+OCPD and HC groups(OCD+OCPD vs OCD:P=0.018;OCD vs HC:P=0.043),but there was no significant difference between the OCD+OCPD and HC groups.Regression models of BIS and BAS were constructed for OCD patients with OCPD,and the results showed that the overall prediction effect of the model was significant for BIS total scores(F=2.599,P=0.013).Only the severity of OCPD symptoms can significantly predict BIS scores(t=-2.282,P=0.023).For BAS total scores,the overall prediction effect of the model was not significant(F=1.438,P=0.191).Conclusion·Comorbid OCPD may be an adverse factor for abnormal BIS and a protective factor for abnormal BAS in patients with OCD.

Objective To investigate whether O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase(MGMT)interference combined with temozolomide(TMZ)could enhance the therapeutic effect of temozolomide on human drug-resistant melanoma cells A375/TMZ.Methods A375/TMZ cells were randomly divided into 4 groups,control group(normal culture),MGMTsiRNA group(200 nmol·L-1 MGMTsiRNA),experimental group(1 600 μmol·L-1 TMZ)and combined group(transfection of MGMTsiRNA followed by addition of 1 600 μmol·L-1 TMZ).After 24 h of culture,the proliferation of cells in each group was analyzed by cell counting kit-8 method.Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of poly ADP-ribose polymerase(PARP),cleaved PARP(cleaved-PARP),DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit(DNA-PKcs)and nuclear factor kappa-B(NF-κB)proteins in the cells.The expression and distribution of NF-κB proteins in the cells were detected by immunofluorescence.Results Cell inhibition rates of control,MGMTsiRNA,experimental and combined groups were 0,(3.45±1.53)％,(51.24±2.73)％and(70.69±4.48)％;the relative expression levels of PARP protein were 0.45±0.08,0.47±0.06,0.33±0.04,0.14±0.03;the relative expression levels of the cleaved-PARP protein were 0.01±0.02、0.01±0.01、0.18±0.03 and 0.36±0.04;the relative expression levels of DNA-PKcs protein were 0.09±0.03,0.07±0.02,0.32±0.02 and 0.39±0.04;the relative expression levels of NF-κB protein were 0.35±0.04,0.36±0.05,0.20±0.02 and 0.15±0.02.Compared with experimental group or control group,the differences of above indexes were all statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Immunofluorescence analysis showed that the average fluorescence intensity of NF-κB in control group,MGMTsiRNA group,experimental group and combined group were(5.26±1.05)％,(7.58±1.18)％,(10.56±1.99)％and(15.47±2.61)％;and compared with the cells in control group and MGMTsiRNA group,combined group showed NF-κB was significantly increased in the nucleus of tumor cells,and the difference was statistically significant(all P＜0.01).Conclusion MGMTsiRNA combined with TMZ further promotes proliferation inhibition and apoptosis of drug-resistant melanoma A375/TMZ cells by TMZ.
