Acupuncture and moxibustion have their unique advantages in treating tumors,but the theoretical framework of acupuncture and moxibustion intervention in tumors needs to be improved,and the academic system still needs to be sorted out.In this paper,we try to describe the commonalities between Chinese medical theories and modern medical technologies in order to consolidate the theoretical foundation of acupuncture intervention in tumor.Specifically:① Acupuncture regulates immune function and energy metabolism,which is a specific form of tonifying the spleen and stomach to support positive qi.② Tumors belong to the broad definition of"sores and ulcers"in traditional Chinese medicine,which is a special kind of chronic inflammation,and acupuncture intervenes in tumors by intervening in inflammatory reactions from ulcers.③ Tumor is a"dynamic pseudo-organ"with yin and yang attributes and"life attributes".Acupuncture and moxibustion can regulate various cells and factors in the tumor environment in a multi-targeted way,so as to make it tend to the state of yin and yang equilibrium.④ Acupuncture and moxibustion have unique advantages in the reduction of toxicity,enhancement of efficacy,tonicity,rejuvenation,treatment of complications,etc.,which complement the allopathic therapies of modern medicine,and can help to realize survival with tumors.

To explore the in vitro and in vivo synergistic effect of paclitaxel in combination with co-listin against MDREscherichia coli(E.coli)and the corresponding mechanism of synergism,we measured the MICs of PTX alone and combination of PTX+antimicrobial drugs on E.coli and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)by broth microdilution method.Then,checkerboard method was used to determine the FICI of PTX+COL combination,and the antibacterial synergies of PTX and COL was further explored through analyzing the membrane permeability and efflux pump ac-tivity.The MICs results showed that the MIC values of PTX alone against E.coli(G5,E25)and S.aureus S238 were＞1 024 mg/L and 512 mg/L,respectively.Meanwhile,we found that the anti-bacterial activity of COL against E.coli could be significantly enhanced(MIC decreased by 4 to 8 times)when used in combination with PTX.The checkerboard test showed that the FICI values of PTX combined with COL for E.coli(G5,E25)were 0.31 and 0.29,respectively,indicating a synergistic antibacterial effect on these strains.The FICI values of PTX combined with COL for E.coli G21,S.aureus(S237 and S238)were 0.51,0.75 and 0.53,respectively,indicating additive effects on these strains.In the mouse abdominal infection model,the combination group could ex-tremely significantly reduce the bacterial burden of E.coli in abdominal compared to the COL or PTX alone group(P＜0.001).The analysis of membrane permeability and efflux pump activity showed that PTX combined with COL significantly increased the inner and outer membrane per-meability of E.coli(G5 and E25),and markedly inhibited the efflux pumping activity of E.coli,when compared that of PTX and COL alone(P＜0.01).The above results indicated that the com-bination of PTX and COL could exert a synergistic in vivo and in vitro antibacterial effect on COL-resistant E.coli through increasing bacterial membrane permeability and inhibiting efflux pump activity.This study provides the theoretical foundation for the development of a novel combi-nation regimen for the treatment of MDR E.coli infection.

Abstract In recent years, the prevalence of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents has risen rapidly, posing a serious threat to their physical and mental health. To provide scientific, systematic, and standardized weight management guidance for overweight and obese children and adolescents, the study focuses on the core concept of healthy lifestyle intervention, integrates multidisciplinary expert opinions and research findings,and proposes a comprehensive multidisciplinary intervention framework covering scientific exercise intervention, precise nutrition and diet, optimized sleep management, and standardized psychological support. It calls for the establishment of a multi agent collaborative management mechanism led by the government, implemented by families, fostered by schools, initiated by individuals, optimized by communities, reinforced by healthcare, and coordinated by multiple stakeholders. Emphasizing a child and adolescent centered approach, the consensus advocates for comprehensive, multi level, and personalized guidance strategies to promote the internalization and maintenance of a healthy lifestyle. It serves as a reference and provides recommendations for the effective prevention and control of overweight and obesity, and enhancing the health level of children and adolescents.

Objective To explore the mediating role of intolerance of uncertainty(IU)and moderating role of the negative emotion differentiation in the influence of perceived stress on anxiety among college students from a cognitive perspective.Methods A total of 271 participants were surveyed using the perceived stress scale,intolerance of uncertainty scale,depression anxiety and stress scale(Chinese version),and the test on negative emotional differentiation.SPSS 22.0 was used to perform descriptive statistics and correlation analyses and to test the moderated mediation model.Results Perceived stress affected anxiety and IU played a mediating role-perceived stress could affect anxiety through influencing IU.At the same time,the influence of IU on anxiety could be adjusted through the negative emotion differentiation.The higher the degree of negative emotion differentiation,the lower the degree of anxiety increase(β=0.17,t=5.70,P＜0.01).Conclusion It may be effective to develop training programs to reduce anxiety by regulating perceived stress,increasing acceptance of uncertainty,and improving the negative emotion differentiation,which can help individuals reduce anxiety by perceiving and adjusting anxiety-related emotional or cognitive factors in a timely manner.

Objective:To investigate the role of human dermal microvascular endothelial cells(HMEC-1)exosome hsa-miR-4488_L in regulating the osteogenic and lipogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)and to elucidate the mechanism of action underlying fate differentiation.Methods:The hsa-miR-4488_L mimic or negative control mimic was transfected into BMSCs, which were then cultured under osteogenic or lipogenic conditions, respectively.RT-qPCR was employed to detect the mRNA expression levels of osteogenic and lipogenic genes in BMSCs.Alizarin red staining was utilized to assess the osteogenic differentiation capability of hsa-miR-4488_L in BMSCs, while oil red O staining was used to evaluate the lipogenic differentiation potential of BMSCs.The mimic control and hsa-miR-4488_L mimic were transfected into elderly BMSCs, and age-related phenotypes were assessed using RT-qPCR and SA-β-gal staining.The direct target genes of hsa-miR-4488_L acting on BMSCs were identified through bioinformatics analysis and subsequently validated by RT-qPCR and Western blot.Results:After treatment with the hsa-miR-4488_L mimic, the expressions of osteogenic-related genes ALP( P=0.007), BSP( P=0.001), and Col1( P<0.001)in BMSCs were upregulated.Additionally, alizarin red staining results indicated an increase in the number of calcified nodules Pparγ( P=0.002).Concurrently, under adipogenic induction conditions, the adipogenic-related genes Pparγ( P=0.008)and Perilipin( P<0.001)were significantly downregulated in the hsa-miR-4488_L mimic treatment group, and oil red O staining demonstrated a reduction in lipid droplet production( P=0.032).The mRNA expression of the aging-related gene P16( P=0.009)was downregulated following treatment with the hsa-miR-4488_L mimic, and the number of senescent cells decreased as indicated by SA-β-gal staining.Bioinformatics analysis revealed that Smad3 was the direct target gene of hsa-miR-4488_L in BMSCs.RT-qPCR results confirmed that the expression of Smad3 was downregulated after treatment with the hsa-miR-4488_L mimic( P=0.040).Furthermore, Western blot analysis showed a reduction in the protein level of Smad3. Conclusions:HMEC-EXOs-derived hsa-miR-4488_L regulates the balance between osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation in BMSCs through Smad3.Consequently, hsa-miR-4488_L may serve as a potential miRNA biomarker for age-related osteoporosis.

Objective:To investigate the expression of SLIT2/ROBO1 in prostate cancer and its clinical significance.Methods:A total of 100 cases of radical prostatectomy paraffin specimens at Department of Clinical Pathology, the average age of the patients was (71.8±7.8) years, the People?s Hospital of Baoan Shenzhen from January 2015 to December 2019 were collected and immunohistochemical staining was used to analyze the correlation between SLIT2/ROBO1 expression and clinicopathological features in prostate cancer.COX regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of biochemical recurrence in patients with prostate cancer after radical treatment.Prostate cancer cells PC3 and LNCaP were used as research objects, ROBO1 was silenced by small interfering RNA specific to human ROBO1, and its effect on the growth rate of prostate cancer was observed by CCK8 assay.Transwell cell migration and invasion assay was used to detect the effect of ROBO1 knock-down on the migration and invasion ability of prostate cancer cells.Protein immunoimprinting assay was used to detect the expression of TGF-β/SMAD pathway-related proteins after ROBO1 knockdown.Results:The expressions of SLIT2 and ROBO1 in prostate cancer were increased with the increase of prostate cancer Gleason score system (Gleason score) and International Society of Urology Pathology score (ISUP)( P<0.05). The expression was significantly up-regulated in prostate cancer tissues with lymph node metastasis ( P<0.01) and T3 stage.In addition, COX regression univariate analysis showed that age, preoperative PSA level, Gleason and ISUP scores, T stage, lymph node metastasis and ROBO1 protein expression status were correlated with postoperative biochemical recurrence.COX regression multivariate analysis showed that ROBO1 high expression, age, preoperative PSA value and T stagewere risk factors for the prognosis of prostate cancer ( P<0.05).The results of cell experiments showed that ROBO1 promoted the proliferation, migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells.The expression of TGF-β/SMAD was decreased after ROBO1 knockdown and SLIT2/ROBO1 inhibitor (P144)treatment, respectively. Conclusions:The high expression of SLIT2 and ROBO1 is associated with the progression and differentiation of prostate cancer.The high expression of ROBO1 is a risk factor for biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.At the same time, ROBO1 can inhibit the migration and invasion of prostate cancer cells by regulating the TGF-β/SMAD signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of predictive exercise intervention combined with information-knowledge-attitude-practice (IKAP) model-based nursing in patients with gestational hypertension (GH) .Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 130 GH patients admitted to Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province from January 2022 to December 2024 for the study. Sixty-five GH patients admitted from January 2022 to June 2023 were set as control group, and 65 GH patients admitted from July 2023 to December 2024 were set as observation group. Control group implemented conventional nursing, and observation group was treated with predictive exercise intervention combined with IKAP model-based nursing on the basis of conventional nursing. Depression, delivery outcomes, and incidence of complications were compared between two groups of GH patients after intervention.Results:During the study period, no patients were excluded from observation group and one patient was withdrawn from control group for personal reasons, resulting in the inclusion of 64 patients. Patients in observation group at 6 weeks postpartum had lower scores on the Chinese version of the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale than those in control group, and the incidence of premature labor, cesarean section, and lower limb swelling were lower than those in control group, and the differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Predictive exercise intervention combined with IKAP model-based nursing can improve the coagulation function of GH patients, reduce the incidence of lower limb swelling, alleviate the patient's postpartum depression, and facilitate safe delivery.

Depression is a mental disorder char-acterized by mood disturbances that pose a signifi-cant threat to human mental and physical health.In recent years,the farnesoid X receptor(FXR)has been found to be expressed in brain regions such as the hippocampus and is closely related to the onset of depression.It can also affect the down-stream target cAMP response element binding pro-tein(CREB)-brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)signaling pathway,holding promise as a new target for the treatment of depression.This ar-ticle analyzes how hippocampal FXR regulates the CREB-BDNF signaling pathway and summarizes the latest research progress related to the pathogene-sis of depression,with the aim of providing precise targeted ideas for the drug development and clini-cal treatment of depression.
