ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of action of Lifei Xiaoji Pill （理肺消积丸， LXP） in the treatment of non small cell lung cancer based on the Warburg effect and the USP47/BACH1 pathway. MethodsFifty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into five groups， model group， LXP group， inhibitor group， LXP + inhibitor group， and cisplatin group， with 10 mice in each group. A lung cancer mouse model was established by subcutaneously injecting Lewis cells. On the next day， the model group mice were given 0.2 ml of saline by gavage daily， the LXP group given 240 mg/（kg·d） of LXP solution once a day by gavage， the inhibitor group intraperitoneally injected with P22077 at a dose of 10 mg/（kg·d） every day， the LXP + inhibitor group given both LXP by gavage and P22077 by intraperitoneal injection once a day， and the cisplatin group received 0.5 mg/（kg·d） cisplatin intraperitoneally every other day. All treatments lasted for 14 days. On the day after the last dose， tumor weight and volume were measured， tumor histopathology was examined by HE staining， apoptosis in tumor tissues was detected by TUNEL staining， and proliferation cell nuclear antigen （PCNA） protein levels were detected by immunohistochemistry. Warburg effect indicators， including glucose concentration， lactate content， and adenosine triphosphate （ATP） production in tumor tissues， were measured. Western Blot and qRT-PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression levels of USP47， BACH1， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase （GAPDH）. ResultsCompared with the model group， all drug intervention groups showed reduced tumor weight and volume， improved tumor pathology， decreased PCNA positive rate， increased apoptosis rate， and reduced expression levels of USP47， BACH1， and HK2 proteins and mRNA （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Except for lactate content in the cisplatin group， the glucose concentration in tumor tissues of other drug intervention groups increased， while lactate content and ATP production decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the LXP group， the LXP + inhibitor group showed more significant improvements in these indicators （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the cisplatin group， the LXP + inhibitor group had lower mRNA expression of HK2 and GAPDH， and lower protein levels of USP47 and HK2 （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the inhibitor group， the cisplatin group had higher HK2 protein levels， while the LXP + inhibitor group showed lower mRNA expression of BACH1， HK2， and GAPDH （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionLXP significantly inhibits tumor growth in lung cancer mice， and its mechanism of action may be related to inhibiting the Warburg effect via the USP47/BACH1 pathway.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH)with acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods:EBV-HLH patients who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2014 to December 2020 were collected,and their clinical characteristics,treatment,concurrent acute kidney injury and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results:In this study,the incidence of AKI complicated by EBV-HLH was 65.5％,and the 28-day mortality rate was 15.3％.Compared with non-AKI group,patients in the AKI group had higher levels of bilirubin,lactate dehydrogenase,creatinine,urea nitrogen,and β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),poorer coagulation,and lower soluble IL-2 receptor(sCD25).Patients in the AKI group had a higher proportion of chemotherapy,transplantation,mechanical ventilation,and the application of vasoactive medications,and were hospitalized for longer periods of time,with higher in-hospital mortality rates and 28-day mortality rates.Patients in the AKI group were analyzed in subgroups according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes(KDIGO)classification,and the levels of leukocytes,bilirubin,albumin,creatinine,urea nitrogen,β2-MG,activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),and prothrombin time activity(PTA)were more responsive to the severity of the patient's condition.KDIGO grade 2 and 3 had higher proportions of receiving transplants,diuretics,organ support(mechanical ventilation,application of vasoactive medications,and renal replacement therapy),and admissions to the intensive care unit(ICU),and with higher in-hospital mortality rates and 28-day mortality rates.Regression analysis found that creatinine,β2-MG,APTT,transplantation,and chemotherapy were independent risk factors for the development of AKI;the application of vasoactive drugs was both an independent risk factor for the development of AKI and for death at 28 days;and chemotherapy,length of hospitalization,and HGB and fibrinogen levels were protective factors for death at 28 days.Conclusion:AKI in EBV-HLH has high incidence and high rate of progression to severe disease and death,early attention should be given and strengthened in order to carry out early treatment and improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective:To investigate effects of resistance exercise on exercise tolerance,cardiac function and somati-zation symptoms in patients with stable coronary artery disease(SCAD).Methods:SCAD patients without heart failure,who were diagnosed with coronary angiography or coronary CTA in Second Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College,Inner Mongolia University of Science & Technology between June 2020 and June 2022 were select-ed.They were enrolled into groups according to voluntary principle,and 47 cases and 58 cases were finally included in control group and resistance exercise group respectively.Both groups exercised for 12 weeks according to the ex-ercise prescription.Exercise tolerance was assessed using peak oxygen uptake(VO2peak)and anaerobic threshold;left ventricular diastolic function was assessed using cardiac echocardiography mitral early-diastolic peak flow ve-locity/late-diastolic peak flow velocity(E/A);and mental health was assessed using Somatization Symptom Self-rating Scale(SSS).The occurrence of serious cardiovascular adverse events was compared between two groups after 24-week follow-up.Results:Compared with before exercise,after 12-week exercise,there were significant rise in VO2 peak[(17.53±3.92)ml·min-1·kg-1 vs.(20.35±3.70)ml·min-1·kg-1],anaerobic threshold[(11.60±3.40)ml·min-1·kg-1 vs.(12.62±3.16)ml·min-1·kg-1],E peak[(0.63±0.14)mm/s vs.(0.70±0.16)mm/s]and E/A ratio[(0.80±0.14)vs.(0.91±0.24)];and significant reductions in resting heart rate[(76.21±12.70)beats/min vs.(74.36±9.87)beats/min]and SSS score[10.00(5.00,22.25)points vs.9.50(3.00,21.00)points]in resistance exercise group(P＜0.01 all).Compared with the control group,VO2 peak[(18.59±3.93)ml·min-1·kg-1 vs.(20.35±3.70)ml·min-1·kg-1]and E/A ratio[(0.82±0.22)vs.(0.91±0.24)]were significantly higher in resistance exercise group after 12 weeks(P＜0.05 both).After 24-week follow-up,there was no significant difference in incidence rate of serious cardiovascular adverse events between two groups(P=1.000).Conclusion:Resistance exercise can significantly increase exercise tolerance,improve cardiac diastolic function and psychological health in patients with coronary artery disease.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To compare the clinical characteristics of diabetes mellitus(DM)patients complicated with pyogenic liver abscess(PLA)and non-DM(NDM)patients complicated with PLA,and provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods PLA patients who admitted to an affiliated hospital of Anhui Medical University from July 2002 to February 2022 were selected and divided into DM+PLA group and NDM+PLA group according to whether they had DM.General condition,clinical manifestations and signs.complications,biochemical and patho-genic examination results,imaging findings,as well as clinical efficacy and influencing factors of the two groups of patients were analyzed retrospectively.Results 695 PLA patients were included in the analysis,191(27.5％)in the DM+PLA group and 504(72.5％)in the NDM+PLA group.The proportions of males and complication of hypertension in the DM+PLA group were higher than those in the NDM+PLA group,while the proportion of bi-liary diseases and malignant tumors was lower(all P＜0.05).The proportions of patients developing fever,fa-tigue,as well as concurrent anemia and hypoalbuminemia in the DM+PLA group were higher than those in the NDM+PLA group(all P＜0.05).Compared with the NDM+PLA group,the neutrophil count and percentage in the DM+PLA group increased,while total protein,albumin content,and albumin/globulin ratio all decreased(all P＜0.05).The proportions of the detection of Klebsiella pneumoniae and the occurrence of liver right lobe abscess in DM+PLA patients were higher than those of the NDM+PLA group(both P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic re-gression analysis revealed that malignant tumor was a risk factor for affecting the clinical efficacy of PLA patients,invasive treatment was a protect factor for affecting the clinical efficacy of PLA patients,while blood sugar was a risk factor for affecting the clinical efficacy of NDM+PLA patients.Conclusion DM+PLA patients have more se-vere infection symptoms than NDM+PLA patients,and are accompanied by higher proportions of Klebsiella pneu-moniae infection and liver right lobe abscess.It is necessary to strengthen attention to patients with malignant tumor and control blood sugar level,and timely supplement with invasive treatment if necessary.

Based on the strategy of metabolomics combined with bioinformatics, this study analyzed the potential allergens and mechanism of pseudo-allergic reactions (PARs) induced by the combined use of Reduning injection and penicillin G injection. All animal experiments and welfare are in accordance with the requirements of the First Affiliated Experimental Animal Ethics and Animal Welfare Committee of Henan University of Chinese Medicine (approval number: YFYDW2020002). Based on UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technology combined with UNIFI software, a total of 21 compounds were identified in Reduning and penicillin G mixed injection. Based on molecular docking technology, 10 potential allergens with strong binding activity to MrgprX2 agonist sites were further screened. Metabolomics analysis using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technology revealed that 34 differential metabolites such as arachidonic acid, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes were endogenous differential metabolites of PARs caused by combined use of Reduning injection and penicillin G injection. Through the analysis of the "potential allergen-target-endogenous differential metabolite" interaction network, the chlorogenic acids (such as chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, and isochlorogenic acid A) and β-lactam allergens in the combination of the two may be mainly regulated by PLD1, PLA2G12A and CYP1A1. The three upstream signal target proteins mainly activate the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway, promote the degranulation of mast cells, release downstream endogenous inflammatory mediators, and induce PARs.

Amantadine(AMD)residue can accumulate in organisms through the food chain and cause serious harm to human body.AMD can specifically bind to AMD specific aptamer and cause its conformation to change from a random single strand to a stem-loop structure.To avoid the influence of excess nucleotides on binding of aptamer to AMD,the truncation of the AMD original aptamer J was optimized by retaining an appropriate stem-loop structure,and a new type of truncation aptamers was developed in this work.By comparing the truncated aptamer with the original aptamer,it was found that the truncated aptamer J-7 had better affinity and specificity with AMD.The detection limit of AMD was 0.11 ng/mL by using J-7 as specific recognition element and molybdenum disulfide nanosheet(MoS2Ns)as signal amplification element.The developed method base on truncated aptamer J-7 was used for detection of AMD in milk,yogurt and SD rat serum samples for the first time with recoveries of 86.6%-108.2%.This study provided a reference for truncating other long sequence aptamers and provided a more sensitive detection method for monitoring AMD residues in food.
