The liver performs multiple life-sustaining functions. Hepatic diseases, including hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatoma, pose significant health and economic burdens globally. Along with the advances in nanotechnology, mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) exhibiting diversiform size and shape, distinct morphological properties, and favorable physico-chemical features have become an ideal choice for drug delivery systems and inspire alternative thinking for the management of hepatic diseases. Initially, we introduce the physiological structure of the liver and highlight its intrinsic cell types and correlative functions. Next, we detail the synthesis methods and physicochemical properties of MSNs and their capacity for controlled drug loading and release. Particularly, we discuss the interactions between liver and MSNs with respect to the passive targeting mechanisms of MSNs within the liver by adjusting their particle size, pore diameter, surface charge, hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity, and surface functionalization. Subsequently, we emphasize the role of MSNs in regulating liver pathophysiology, exploring their value in addressing liver pathological states, such as tumors and inflammation, combined with multi-functional designs and intelligent modes to enhance drug targeting and minimize side effects. Lastly, we put forward the problems, challenges, opportunities, as well as clinical translational issues faced by MSNs in the management of liver diseases.

Objective:To understand the psychological load status of nurses in psychological nursing work and to explore its correlation with stress perception and mental health.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 260 nurses who participated in vocational education and training in Naval Medical University were selected as the research objects from November to December 2021. A questionnaire survey was conducted using National Aeronautics and Space Administration-Task Load Index, Perceived Stress Scale and World Health Organization Five-Item Well-Being Index. Using the Process plugin to analyze the relationship between psychological load in nurses' psychological nursing work, stress perception, and mental health.Results:A total of 260 questionnaires were distributed in this study and 248 valid questionnaires were collected, with a questionnaire effective rate of 95.38%. The total score of psychological load and the score of load perception dimension in nurses' psychological nursing work were lower than those in their daily nursing work. The results of the mediating effect model showed that there was a mediating effect between the self-evaluation dimension of psychological load in nurses' psychological nursing work and mental health . The total effect of self-evaluation dimension on mental health was -0.150 7.Conclusions:The level of psychological load in nurses' psychological nursing work is lower than that in daily nursing work. The self-evaluation of psychological load in psychological nursing work can not only directly affect the mental health of nurses, but also indirectly affect their mental health through stress perception. Relevant departments should strengthen the cultivation of nurses' psychological nursing abilities and promote their professional mental health.

[Objective]To study the clinical features and expressions of IL-17A,IFN-γ,and IL-10 in serum and intestinal mucosa of patients with post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome and non post-infectious irritable bowel syndrome.[Methods]44 diar?rhea-predominate IBS patients(21 with PI-IBS,23 with NPI-IBS)and 10 healthy controls were recruited in this study. Investigation questionnaires of GSRS,SAS,SDS were carried out to evaluate the gastrointestinal function,anxiety status and depression status of IBS patients. The expressions of IL-17A,IFN-γ,and IL-10 in intestinal mucosa and serum were measured by immunohistochemis?try(IHC)and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).[Results]The SDS scores of NPI-IBS patients were higher than those of controls(P<0.05),and the SAS and SDS scores of PI-IBS patients were higher than those of controls(P<0.05). The GSRS, SAS and SDS scores of PI-IBS group were higher than those of NPI-IBS group(P<0.05). Compared with healthy controls,PI-IBS and NPI-IBS group showed significant rise of IL-17A,IFN-γlevels and decrease of IL-10 level in intestinal mucosa(P<0.05);In serum,the IL-17A levels were up-regulated and the IL-10 levels were decreased in PI-IBS group but not in NPI-IBS group when compared with controls(P<0.05). In intestinal mucosa and serum,IL-17A and IFN-γlevels in PI-IBS group were slightly higher than those in NPI-IBS group(P > 0.05).[Conclusion]PI-IBS and NPI-IBS patients existed various anxiety and depression. The levels of IL-17A and IFN-γ increased and level of IL-10 decreased in PI-IBS and NPI-IBS group. But the clinical symptoms and changes of cytokines of PI-IBS patients were more significant. There may exist other pathogenesis in PI-IBS but not in NPI-IBS.

Objective To evaluate the effect of islet transplantation for patients with type 2diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods Since December 2007, 4 cases of islet transplantations were performed on 3 patients with type 2 DM and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Two patients received simultaneous islet-kidney transplant from single-donor (SIK), and one received 2 consecutive islet transplants 5 months following kidney transplantion (IAK). All recipients given insulin with a dose of percutaneous transhepatic portal catheterization. Anti-CD25 monoclonal antibody was used as induction. For SIK, low-doses of Tacrolimus and sirolimus were used as maintenance immunosuppression protocol. For IAK, the maintenance protocol included cyclosporine and MMF.Insulin dose, the level of blood glucose, C-peptide and the value of HbA1 were observed. Results The first patient of SIKhad normal glucose level 3 days after surgery and became insulin independent within the first month, but insulin was administered gradually and the dose reduced to 1/3. The second patient of SIK died of bleeding and secondary infection of liver puncture site 5 days following operation, the blood glucose level recovered to normal 24 h after operation. The insulin dose of the patient of IAK was reduced to 1/2 after the first transplant. The patient became insulin free after the second operation. The level of fasting and postprandial C-peptide of the surviving recipients increased by 600 pmol/L. The value of HbA1 of the SIK was 6.7 %～7.3 %, while that of the IAK was 5. 5 %～ 5. 9 %. Conclusion Islet transplantation is an effective treatment for patients with type 2 DM.
