OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate medication risk prediction models for hospitalized adult patients and provide references for their development and clinical application. METHODS Databases including PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang data， VIP and CBM were searched for studies on medication risk prediction models from their inception to May 2024. After screening the literature， extracting data， and evaluating the quality of the literature， descriptive analysis was performed on the results of the included studies. RESULTS A total of 13 studies were included， involving 12 models. Nine studies used Logistic regression algorithm for modeling， and the number of included predictive factors ranged from 3 to 11； the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ranged from 0.65 to 0.865. The literature quality evaluation results showed that 10 studies had high risk of bias； 10 studies had high applicability risk. A total of 31 predictive factors were extracted， including 15 items of basic patient information， 3 test indicators， and 5 items of medication information， and 8 others. CONCLUSIONS The existing medication risk prediction models for hospitalized adult inpatients are mainly Logistic regression algorithm， with predictive factors mainly focusing on basic indicators such as demographics. The overall prediction performance of the models needs to be improved， and the overall risk of bias is relatively high.

Osteoporosis is a common bone disease， whose incidence is still on the rise， posing great challenges to patients and society. This review mainly studies the pathogenesis of osteoporosis from the aspects of oxidative stress， inflammatory response， and glucolipotoxicity-induced injury and clarifies the efficacy and mechanism of some active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine against osteoporosis through the integration of in vitro and in vivo experiments. The experimental results suggest that some active ingredients can improve bone resorption markers and maintain bone homeostasis by modulating inflammation， oxidative stress， etc. These active ingredients regulate osteoporosis through the receptor activator of nuclear transcription factor-κB （NF-κB） ligand （RANKL） pathway， osteoprotegerin （OPG） pathway， Wnt/β-catenin pathway， NF-κB pathway， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） pathway， adenosine monophosphate （AMP）-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） pathway， and oxidative stress pathway. This review provides ideas for the progress of the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis with the active ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine， aiming to provide new potential lead compounds and reference for the development of innovative drugs and clinical therapy for the treatment of osteoporosis.

Background::Although overnight fasting is recommended prior to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), the benefits and safety of high-carbohydrate fluid diet (CFD) intake 2 h before ERCP remain unclear. This study aimed to analyze whether high-CFD intake 2 h before ERCP can be safe and accelerate patients’ recovery.Methods::This prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial involved 15 tertiary ERCP centers. A total of 1330 patients were randomized into CFD group ( n = 665) and fasting group ( n = 665). The CFD group received 400 mL of maltodextrin orally 2 h before ERCP, while the control group abstained from food/water overnight (>6 h) before ERCP. All ERCP procedures were performed using deep sedation with intravenous propofol. The investigators were blinded but not the patients. The primary outcomes included postoperative fatigue and abdominal pain score, and the secondary outcomes included complications and changes in metabolic indicators. The outcomes were analyzed according to a modified intention-to-treat principle. Results::The post-ERCP fatigue scores were significantly lower at 4 h (4.1 ± 2.6 vs. 4.8 ± 2.8, t = 4.23, P <0.001) and 20 h (2.4 ± 2.1 vs. 3.4 ± 2.4, t= 7.94, P <0.001) in the CFD group, with least-squares mean differences of 0.48 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.26–0.71, P <0.001) and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.57–0.95, P <0.001), respectively. The 4-h pain scores (2.1 ± 1.7 vs. 2.2 ± 1.7, t = 2.60, P = 0.009, with a least-squares mean difference of 0.21 [95% CI: 0.05–0.37]) and positive urine ketone levels (7.7% [39/509] vs. 15.4% [82/533], χ2 = 15.13, P <0.001) were lower in the CFD group. The CFD group had significantly less cholangitis (2.1% [13/634] vs. 4.0% [26/658], χ2 = 3.99, P = 0.046) but not pancreatitis (5.5% [35/634] vs. 6.5% [43/658], χ2 = 0.59, P = 0.444). Subgroup analysis revealed that CFD reduced the incidence of complications in patients with native papilla (odds ratio [OR]: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.39–0.95, P = 0.028) in the multivariable models. Conclusion::Ingesting 400 mL of CFD 2 h before ERCP is safe, with a reduction in post-ERCP fatigue, abdominal pain, and cholangitis during recovery.Trail Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, No. NCT03075280.

Objective:To investigate the effect of overexpression of T cell restricted intracellular antigen 1(TIA1)gene in M2-type tumor-associated macrophages(M2-TAMs)on invasion and migration of gastric cancer cells and its mechanism.Methods:Primary TAMs were extracted from gastric cancer tissues and induced to differentiate into M2-TAMs using IL-4 and IL-13.The TIA1 overex-pression plasmid(oe-TIA1)and its empty vector were transfected into M2-TAMs.The expression levels of TIA1 mRNA and protein were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.The expression levels of CD206 and CD163 were detected by flow cytometry.The levels of IL-10,TGF-β,VEGF-A and Arg-1 in cell culture supernatant were detected by ELISA.The transfected M2-TAMs were co-cultured with gastric cancer BGC-823 cells by Transwell co-cultivation system,and PI3K agonist 740Y-P was used to intervene in parallel.The cell migration ability was detected by scratch assay.Transwell assay was used to detect cell invasion ability.Protein expression levels of PI3K,p-PI3K,AKT,p-AKT,MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the cells were detected by Western blot.Results:①Compared with primary TAMs,the levels of CD206 and CD163 expression in M2-TAMs cells and IL-10,TGF-β,VEGF-A and Arg-1 in cell culture superna-tant were significantly increased(P<0.05),while the expression levels of TIA1 mRNA and protein were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Overexpression of TIA1 gene significantly decreased the expression levels of CD206 and CD163 in M2-TAMs and IL-10,TGF-β,VEGF-A and Arg-1 in cell culture supernatant(P<0.05).②Overexpression of TIA1 gene in M2-TAMs could significantly reduce the migration and invasion ability and the expression levels of p-PI3K/PI3K,p-AKT/AKT,MMP-2 and MMP-9 proteins in BGC-823 cells(P<0.05).③740Y-P could significantly reverse the inhibitory effects of overexpression of TIA1 gene in M2-TAMs on migration,inva-sion and PI3K/AKT signaling pathway of BGC-823 cells.Conclusion:Overexpression of TIA1 gene in M2-TAMs can affect the inva-sion and migration of gastric cancer cells by blocking the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Seven novel linear polyketides,talaketides A-G(1-7),were isolated from the rice media cultures of the mangrove sed-iment-derived fungus Talaromyces sp.SCSIO 41027.Among these,talaketides A-E(1-5)represented unprecedented unsaturated lin-ear polyketides with an epoxy ring structure.The structures,including absolute configurations of these compounds,were elucidated through detailed analyses of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)and high-resolution mass spectrometry(HR-MS)data,as well as elec-tronic custom distributors(ECD)calculations.In the cytotoxicity screening against prostate cancer cell lines,talaketide E(5)demon-strated a dose-dependent inhibitory effect on prostate cancer PC-3 cell lines,with an IC50 value of 14.44 μmol·L-1.Moreover,com-pound 5 significantly inhibited the cloning formation of PC-3 cell lines and arrested the cell cycle in S-phase,ultimately inducing ap-optosis.These findings indicate that compound 5 may serve as a promising lead compound for the development of a potential treat-ment for prostate cancer.

The impact of various anterior cervical surgeries on biomechanical properties of cervical vertebrae varies depending on the specific surgical techniques employed.However,accurately measuring the mechanical characteristics of individual parts of the cervical vertebrae or implants within them in a clinical setting can be challenging.As a result,the finite element method is commonly utilized in studies on anterior cervical surgery,allowing for the precise analysis of stress and strain distributions in different areas of interest through computer simulations.This method facilitates the study of biomechanical properties associated with different anterior cervical surgical approaches.This review discusses the progress of finite element analysis in anterior cervical surgery,summarizes current research findings on fusion and non-fusion procedures,hybrid surgeries,and minimally invasive techniques,so as to provide theoretical references for the selection of different anterior cervical surgical interventions from a biomechanical perspective.

Purpose To explore the application value of computed tomography enterography(CTE)in differentiating active staging of pediatric Crohn disease.Materials and Methods The clinical data of 83 pediatric Crohn disease children performed by CTE examination and conducted with pediatric Crohn disease activity index(PCDAI)from January 2019 to October 2022 were selected.According to their different PCDAI scores,the patients were divided into four groups,which were remission stage(11 cases),mild activity period(47 cases),moderate activity period(14 cases)and severe activity period(11 cases),and the parameters of CTE were analyzed.Then the results associated with CTE and the stages of pediatric Crohn disease activity were analyzed.Results The CTE images of different clinical PCDAI activity stages were manifested in the scope of the diseased intestine(χ2=49.934),the enhancement mode of diseased intestinal wall(χ2=56.561),the degree of intestinal cavity stenosis(χ2=31.932),the degree of intestinal wall thickened(χ2=46.535),lymph node enlargement(χ2=17.330);in which there was a significantly difference(P<0.05),respectively.With the aggravation of PCDAI activity stages,the extent of diseased intestinal canal(more than 50 mm,31 cases,37.3%),the layered reinforcement of diseased intestinal wall(27 cases,32.5%),the luminal stenosis(less than 5 mm,19 cases,22.9%),the thickening of intestinal wall(more than 5.0 mm,54 cases,65.1%)were more common.The proportion of occurrence in the enlargement of lymph nodes(more than 7 mm,16 cases,19.3%)was high,with significant statistical significance(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between pediatric Crohn disease clinical activity stage(all P<0.01)and the extent of the lesion intestinal canal(r=0.500),the enhancement mode of the lesion intestinal wall(r=0.574),the luminal stenosis(r=0.316),the thickening of intestinal wall(r=0.533).Conclusion With the extent of diseased intestinal canal,the degree of the luminal stenosis,the enhancement mode of diseased intestinal wall and intestinal wall thickened increase,and the clinical stage gradually increase.The above four parameters use as characteristic indicators to reflect the activity stage of pediatric Crohn disease.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

OBJECTIVE To study the regulation effects and mechanism of liquiritin （LIQ） on immune function in gastric cancer-bearing mice based on the Janus kinase 2 （JAK2）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） pathway. METHODS Gastric cancer cells MFC were injected subcutaneously to establish gastric cancer-bearing model of mice. The model mice were divided into model group， LIQ low-dose group （LIQ-L group， 20 mg/kg）， LIQ high-dose group （LIQ-H group， 40 mg/kg）， and high-dose LIQ+JAK2 activator coumermycin A1 group （LIQ-H+coumermycin A1 group， 40 mg/kg LIQ+1 mg/kg coumermycin A1）， with 12 mice in each group. Another 12 mice without modeling were set as normal group. Mice in each group were given the corresponding drug or normal saline by intragastric administration/intraperitoneal injection， once a day， for consecutive 14 days. After the last administration， the volume and mass of gastric cancer tumor and organ index were measured. The percentages of CD4+ and CD8+T lymphocytes were detected in peripheral blood. The histopathological morphology of gastric cancer tumor tissues was observed， and the expression levels of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway-related proteins and interleukin-6 （IL-6） protein in gastric cancer tumor tissues were detected. RESULTS Compared with the normal group， the thymus index， spleen index， and the percentage of CD8 T lymphocyte in the peripheral blood of mice were obviouslyincreased in model group （P＜0.05）， while the percentage of CD4+T lymphocyte in the peripheral blood were decreased （P＜0.05）. Compared with model group， the above indexes in LIQ-L group and LIQ-H group were significantly reversed （P＜0.05）， while the volume and mass of gastric cancer tumor， the phosphorylation levels of JAK2 and STAT3 protein and the expression level of IL-6 protein were significantly decreased in tumor tissue （P＜0.05）， and the effect of LIQ was in a dose-dependent manner （P＜0.05）； the tumor cells showed varying degrees of loose arrangement， vacuolization， and uneven distribution. JAK2 activator coumermycin A1 weakened the improvement effect of LIQ on the immune function of gastric cancer-bearing mice and its inhibitory effect on gastric cancer tumors （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS LIQ can improve the immune function of gastric cancer-bearing mice by inhibiting the activation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway， thus playing an anti-tumor role.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role and mechanism of hyodeoxycholic acid （HDCA） in the progression of metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD）， and to provide a new theoretical basis for further clarifying the pathogenesis of MAFLD. MethodsL02 hepatocytes were used as experimental cells， and palmitic acid was used to induce steatosis in L02 cells. The farnesoid X receptor （FXR） siRNA interference chain technique was used to construct a hepatocyte cell line with low FXR expression. CCK8 assay was used to observe the effect of HDCA on L02 steatosis hepatocytes at different concentrations （0， 100， 200， 300， and 400 μmol/L） and time points （12， 24， 36， and 48 hours）. The method of qRT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of FXR， proliferating cell nuclear antigen （PCNA）， Cyclin D1， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）， and protein kinase-B （AKT）， and Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of FXR， Cyclin D1， PCNA， PI3K， phosphorylated PI3K （p-PI3K）， AKT， and phosphorylated （p-AKT）. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data with homogeneity of variance between multiple groups， and the Tukey HSD test was used for further comparison between two groups； the Welch analysis of variance was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data with heterogeneity of variance between multiple groups， and the Games-Howell test was used for further comparison between two groups. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison between two groups. ResultsCCK8 assay showed a significant reduction in the viability of L02 cells and steatosis hepatocytes treated by 300 μmol/L HDCA （P<0.05）， and qRT-PCR showed a significant increase in the mRNA expression level of FXR and significant reductions in the mRNA expression levels of PCNA， Cyclin D1， PI3K， and AKT （all P<0.05）. Western blot showed a significant increase in the protein expression level of FRX （P<0.05）， and after interference of FXR expression in L02 cells， there were significant increases in the protein expression levels of PCNA， PI3K， p-PI3K， AKT， and p-AKT （all P<0.05）. ConclusionHDCA inhibits the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway by upregulating FXR expression， thereby inducing a reduction in the viability of steatosis hepatocytes.
