Nanoparticle delivery systems have good application prospects in the field of precision therapy, but the preparation process of nanomaterial has problems such as short in vivo circulation time, easy recognition, and clearance by the immune system in the body. In recent years, biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems mediated by natural cell membranes have become a research hotspot to address these issues. The natural membrane biomimetic nanoparticle delivery system cleverly integrates the advantages of natural biofilm "autologous" and "artificial" functional carriers by using endogenous cell membranes to modify the surface of nanocarriers, endowing them with characteristics such as tumor targeting, low immunogenicity, and long blood circulation. Currently, biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems have been used in the treatment of malignant tumors, cardiovascular diseases, bacterial infections, and other diseases. This paper analyzes the development status and current research hotspots of natural cell membrane camouflaged biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems mainly reviews the latest research progress of red blood cell membrane camouflaged biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems in the field of disease treatment in recent years. It focuses on exploring the advantages, future development prospects, and limitations of biomimetic nanoparticle delivery systems based on red blood cell membrane camouflage in improving drug delivery, to provide a reference for the in-depth research and development of this system.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of the interleukin-1 （IL-1） receptor antagonist anakinra in the treatment of refractory adult onset Still’s disease （AOSD）， and provide more real-world evidence and practical experience for the treatment of AOSD with this drug. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient with AOSD complicated with dermatomyositis who received anakinra； systematically searched for relevant literature on the treatment of AOSD with anakinra in Chinese and English databases such as CNKI， PubMed， Medline， etc.， and conduct literature review on its efficacy and safety. RESULTS The patient in this case had poor treatment with multiple traditional drugs and was considered to have AOSD combined with dermatomyositis. After being admitted to the hospital and treated with a combination therapy of anakinra and glucocorticoids for several days， the patient’s clinical symptoms and inflammatory indicators significantly improved， and no serious adverse drug reactions occurred. Pharmacists designed specialized pharmaceutical monitoring pathways and conduct regular follow-up after discharge. After discharge， the patient took medication regularly， and the condition was maintained and relieved； during this period， there was redness and swelling at the injection site which resolved on its own without any other obvious discomfort. Literature review showed that anakinra could increase the response rate and remission rate of AOSD patients， and significantly reduce the dosage of glucocorticoids； adverse events were mainly injection site reactions， with a low overall risk of infection and good safety； however， there was a significant difference in the treatment course， and there was currently no unified plan. CONCLUSIONS Anakinra is an efficient and safe biological agent for treating AOSD， which can rapidly induce and maintain disease remission. For AOSD patients， clinical consideration may be given to using IL-1 antagonists to reduce glucocorticoid dependence， while strengthening long-term medication monitoring.

Aim To explore the protective effects of Xiyanping injection against lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced acute lung injury(ALI)in mice,and investi-gate the underlying mechanism.Methods In the LPS-induced ALI mouse model,the protective effect of Xiyanping injection against ALI was evaluated by ob-serving the pathological indicators of lung tissue.Net-work pharmacology and molecular docking were used to explore its mechanism.Western blot method was used to validate the predicted target proteins.Results Xiy-anping injection significantly improved the pathological injury and alleviated inflammatory reactions in lungs of ALI mice.Four active ingredients were identified in Xiyanping injection,namely,14-deoxy-11-oxo-an-drographolide,14-deoxyandrographolide,14-deoxy-12-methoxyandrographolide,and andrographolide-19-β-D-glucoside.A total of 288 corresponding drug targets and 4 960 ALI-related targets were obtained,with 192 genes overlapping.The ten core targets associated with Xiyanping injection were identified as STAT3,EGFR,PIK3R1,MAPK1,PIK3CA,NFKB1,ESR1,MAPK8,JAK2,and FYN.GO enrichment analysis re-vealed 310 biological processes(BP),65 cellular components(CC),and 80 molecular functions(MF)associated with the overlapping genes.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis identified 141 pathways related to ALI,with the top 20 pathways including MAPK,TNF-α,VEGF,cAMP,mTOR,AMPK,NOD,JAK-STAT,IL-17,and NF-κB.Molecular docking results demonstrated strong binding affinity between core tar-gets(MAPK1,MAPK8,NFKB1)and active ingredi-ents(14-deoxy-12-methoxyandrographolide and 14-de-oxyandrographolide).Western blotting showed that medium and high doses of Xiyanping injection signifi-cantly downregulated p38,JNK,ERKl/2,NF-κB p65 protein expression in lung tissue of ALI mice(P＜0.01).Conclusions Xiyanping injection has a cer-tain protective effect against ALI,and the mechanism is related to regulating MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathways.

Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF)is a highly heterogeneous systemic condition and represents the predominant form of heart heart failure(HF)worldwide.Current pharmacotherapies for HFpEF are limited and lack specific targeted drugs.Recent studies suggest that non-pharmacological strategies serve as adjuncts to conventional pharmacological treatment,offering improvements in symptoms,quality of life,and reducing the risk of rehospitalization for HF in patients with HFpEF.These strategies include CD34 stem cell transplantation,the greater splanchnic nerve ablation,atrial septal shunting,atrial pacing,myocardial contractility modulation,left ventricular expander,baroreceptor stimulation,and others.This review comprehensively summarizes the latest clinical evidence on non-pharmacological treatments for HFpEF,with the aim of advancing the understanding of treatment strategies for this condition.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

The effect of porcine SIRT5 on replication of foot and mouth disease virus type O(FMDV-O)and the underlying regulatory mechanism were investigated.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were employed to monitor expression of endoge-nous SIRT5 in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O.Three pairs of SIRT5-specific siRNAs were synthesized.Changes to SIRT5 and FMDV-O protein and transcript levels,in addition to virus copy numbers,were measured by western blot and RT-qPCR analyses.PK-15 cells were transfected with a eukaryotic SIRT5 expression plasmid.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were used to explore the impact of SIRT5 overexpression on FMDV-O replication.Meanwhile,RT-qPCR analysis was used to detect the effect of SIRT5 overexpression on the mRNA expression levels of type I interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.The results showed that expression of SIRT5 was up-regulated in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O and siRNA interfered with SIRT5 to inhibit FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 overexpression promoted FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 over-expression decreased mRNA expression levels of interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.These results suggest that FMDV-O infection stimulated expression of SIRT5 in PK-15 cells,while SIRT5 promoted FMDV-O rep-lication by inhibiting production of type I interferon-stimula-ted genes.These findings provide a reference to further ex-plore the mechanism underlying the ability of porcine SIRT5 to promote FMDV-O replication.

Seminal microbiome plays an important role in male reproductive health,and its composition may be associated with sperm quality,development of oligoasthenospermia,and pregnancy outcomes of assisted reproductive technology.Seminal microbiome may be transmitted to the partner and offspring,and consequently affect female reproduction and the health of offspring.The complete structure of seminal microbiome is difficult to find by conventional bacterial culture due to the length of time taken and restriction of condition.Next-generation sequencing(NGS)can reveal the complete composition of seminal microbiome and help elucidate the com-plex microbial-host interactions based on human physiology and pathophysiology.This review focuses on the composition of seminal mi-crobiome,its relationship with male infertility and the mechanism of its impairing sperm quality based on NGS,and summarizes the re-sults of NGS-based studies on the patterns of bacterial colonization in different anatomical parts of the male reproductive tract.Current studies have revealed a unique diversity of seminal microbiome structures,a close correlation of abnormal seminal microbiome structure with sperm quality and male fertility,and a possible probiotic microbiome in semen capable of supporting health function.So far,the source and composition of seminal microbiome,and its influence on fertility and pregnancy outcome are not yet clear,and the specific mechanism of its diversity affecting sperm needs to be further studied with larger sample sizes and appropriate control specimens.

Objective:To explore the prevalence and independent associated factors of vascular calcification (VC) in non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients of stage 3-5.Methods:It was a single-center cross-sectional observational study. Non-dialysis stage 3-5 CKD patients ≥18 years old who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from May 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022 with VC evaluation were enrolled. The patients' general information, laboratory examination and imaging data were collected. Coronary artery calcification (CAC), thoracic aorta calcification (TAC), abdominal aorta calcification (AAC), carotid artery calcification and aortic valve calcification (AVC) were evaluated by cardiac-gated electron-beam CT (EBCT) scans, lateral lumbar x-ray, cervical macrovascular ultrasound and echocardiography, respectively. The differences in clinical data and the prevalence of VC at different sites of patients with different CKD stages were compared, and the prevalence of VC at different sites of patients in different age groups [youth group (18-44 years old), middle-aged group (45-64 years old) and elderly group (≥65 years old)] and patients with or without diabetes were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyse the independent associated factors of VC for different areas.Results:A total of 206 patients aged (51±14) years were included, including 129 (62.6%) males. There were 44 patients with CKD stage 3 (21.4%), 51 patients with CKD stage 4 (24.8%), and 111 patients with CKD stage 5 (53.9%). CKD was caused by chronic glomerulonephritis [104 cases (50.5%)], diabetic kidney damage [35 cases (17.0%)], hypertensive kidney damage [29 cases (14.1%)] and others [38 cases (18.4%)]. Among 206 patients, 131 (63.6%) exhibited cardiovascular calcification, and the prevalence of CAC, TAC, AAC, carotid artery calcification, and AVC was 37.9%, 43.7%, 37.9%, 35.9% and 9.7%, respectively. The overall prevalence of VC in young, middle-aged and elderly patients was 24.6%, 73.6% and 97.4%, respectively. With the increase of age, the prevalence of VC in each site gradually increased, and the increasing trend was statistically significant (all P<0.001). The overall prevalence of VC in CKD patients with diabetes was 92.5% (62/67), and the prevalence of VC at each site in the patients with diabetes was significantly higher than that in the patients without diabetes (all P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age (every 10 years increase, OR=2.51, 95% CI 1.77-3.56, P<0.001), hypertension ( OR=5.88, 95% CI 1.57-22.10, P=0.009), and diabetes ( OR=4.66, 95% CI 2.10-10.35, P<0.001) were independently correlated with CAC; Age (every 10 years increase, OR=6.43, 95% CI 3.64-11.36, P<0.001) and hypertension ( OR=6.09, 95% CI 1.33-27.84, P=0.020) were independently correlated with TAC; Female ( OR=0.23, 95% CI 0.07-0.72, P=0.011), age (every 10 years increase, OR=3.90, 95% CI 2.42-6.29, P<0.001), diabetes ( OR=5.37, 95% CI 2.19-13.19, P<0.001) and serum magnesium ( OR=0.01,95% CI 0-0.35, P=0.014) were independently correlated with AAC. Moreover, age and diabetes were independently correlated with carotid artery calcification, AVC and overall VC Conclusions:The prevalence of VC in non-dialysis CKD patients of stage 3-5 is 63.59%, of which CAC reaches 37.9%, TAC is the most common one (43.7%), while AVC is the least one (9.7%). Age and diabetes are the independent associated factors for VC of all sites except TAC, while hypertension is an independent associated factor for both CAC and TAC.

Objective:To improve work efficiency and reduce errors through intelligent pre-analytical process reengineering.Methods:Tumor and infection marker test samples from outpatients at Peking University Shenzhen Hospital from December 2021 to February 2023 were collected. The process was integrated with sample transportation, sample sorting and secondary transfer, and laboratory automation systems, while achieving full-process information monitoring. The number of manual intervention nodes, the turnaround time (TAT) from sample collection to testing and from collection to reporting, the proportion of intelligent pre-dilution, and the number of pre-analytical errors automatically identified were compared before and after the intelligent pre-analytical process reengineering to evaluate the effect of the reengineering. Chi-square test, Fisher′s exact probability method, and Mann-Whitney U test were used for statistical analysis.Results:After implementing the intelligent process reengineering, the number of manual intervention nodes has been reduced from 13 to 2. For outpatient tumor marker samples, after the first stage of reengineering, the median TAT from collection to reporting decreased from 185 (141, 242) min to 137 (102, 183) min ( Z=-54.932, P<0.001). After the second stage of reengineering, the median TAT from collection to reporting further decreased from 137 (102, 183) min to 100 (64, 150) min ( Z=-61.346, P<0.001). For infection marker samples, after the first stage of reengineering, the median TAT from collection to reporting decreased from 392 (282, 1386) min to 229 (176, 323) min ( Z=-68.636, P<0.001). After the second stage of reengineering, the median TAT from collection to reporting further decreased from 229 (176, 323) min to 160 (110, 236) min ( Z=-62.15, P<0.001). Conclusion:Intelligent pre-analytical process reengineering can optimize workflows, improve efficiency, and reduce errors.
