Diabetic kidney disease（DKD） is a chronic kidney structural and functional disorder caused by diabetes. With the global prevalence of diabetes continuing to rise， DKD has gradually become a major cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease（ESRD）， posing a serious threat to patients' quality of life and long-term health outcomes. Studies have shown that apoptosis plays a pivotal role in the development and progression of DKD， with its mechanisms involving abnormal activation of multiple signaling pathways such as Toll-like receptor 4（TLR4）/nuclear transcription factor-κB（NF-κB）/B-cell lymphoma-2（Bcl-2）/cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase（Caspase）-3， protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase（PERK）/eukaryotic initiation factor 2α（eIF2α）/activating transcript factor 4（ATF4）/CCAAT enhancer-binding protein homologous protein（CHOP）， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase（PI3K）/protein kinase B（Akt）/glycogen synthase kinase-3β（GSK-3β）， Janus kinase 2（JAK2）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3（STAT3）， adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase（AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin（mTOR） and silent information regulator 1（SIRT1）/tumor suppressor protein 53（p53）， thereby accelerating renal pathological damage in DKD. Extensive evidence-based medical studies have confirmed that traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， leveraging its unique therapeutic advantages of multi-target， multi-component and multi-pathway approaches， has demonstrated remarkable efficacy and favorable safety profiles in treating DKD. Recent studies have demonstrated that active components of TCM can specifically target and modulate key effectors in apoptotic signaling pathways. Meanwhile， traditional compound formulations exert synergistic effects through multiple approaches such as replenishing deficiency and activating blood circulation， detoxifying and dredging collaterals， tonifying kidney essence， and removing stasis and purging turbidity， thereby comprehensively regulating critical pathological processes including endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial apoptosis pathways. This combined therapeutic approach of molecular targeting and holistic regulation provides novel strategies for delaying the progression of DKD. Based on this， this paper provides an in-depth analysis of key apoptotic signaling pathways and their regulatory mechanisms， while systematically summarizing recent research advances regarding the therapeutic effects of TCM active components， compound formulations， and proprietary Chinese medicines on DKD through modulation of these pathways， with particular emphasis on their underlying molecular mechanisms. These findings not only elucidate the modern scientific connotation and theoretical basis of TCM in treating DKD but also establish a solid theoretical and practical foundation for promoting the wider clinical application and further research of TCM in the field of DKD treatment.

Hepatic encephalopathy is a difficult and critical disease with rapid progression and limited treatment methods in the field of liver disease， and it is urgently needed to make breakthroughs in its pathogenesis. Selection of appropriate prevention and treatment strategies is of great importance in delaying disease progression and reducing the incidence and mortality rates.

OBJECTIVE To mine the adverse drug event （ADE） signals of selinexor， and to provide reference for its clinical safety medication. METHODS ADE data for selinexor reported from July 3rd， 2019 to March 31st， 2023 were collected from the FDA adverse event reporting system （FAERS）. Data mining was performed by using the reporting odds ratio （ROR） and proportional reporting ratio （PRR） methods， and categorization statistics were performed by using the system organ class （SOC） and preferred term （PT） from drug ADE terminology set in the MedDRA （version 26.0）. RESULTS A total of 3 084 ADE reports were obtained for selinexor， with a total of 134 ADE-positive signals. Among the reported genders， there were 127 males and 124 females， with a predominant age of ≥65 years old （4.12%）； the United States had the highest number of reports （96.53%）， with consumers being the main reporters （77.27%）； severe ADR was mainly characterized by hospitalization/prolonged hospitalization （26.26%）， followed by death （17.15%）. The top 3 ADE in the list of frequency were nausea （1 162 times）， fatigue （790 times） and anorexia （610 times）， all of which were mentioned in the selinexor’s instructions. The top 3 signals in the list of strength were device-associated bacteremia （ROR＝115.07， PRR＝114.94）， blepharospasm dysfunction （ROR＝106.70， PRR＝106.54）， and salmonella sepsis （ROR＝99.90， PRR＝99.81）， all of which were not mentioned in the selinexor’s instructions. CONCLUSIONS In addition to the ADE of nausea mentioned in the instruction manual， attention should also paid to device-associated bacteremia， blepharospasm dysfunction， salmonella sepsis， and other ADE not mentioned in the instruction manual when using selinexor in clinical practice； weekly rechecking of the patient’s blood routine should be done to monitor the patient’s blood indexes， symptoms of infection， and so on， to ensure that the safety of 1661962346@qq.com drug use.

BACKGROUND:Early identification of patients requiring ventilator support will be beneficial for the outcomes of botulism.The present study aimed to establish a new scoring system to predict mechanical ventilation(MV)for botulism patients. METHODS:A single-center retrospective study was conducted to identify risk factors associated with MV in botulism patients from 2007 to 2022.Univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to screen out risk factors for constructing a prognostic scoring system.The area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was calculated. RESULTS:A total of 153 patients with botulism(66 males and 87 females,with an average age of 43 years)were included.Of these,49 patients(32.0%)required MV,including 21(13.7%)with invasive ventilation and 28(18.3%)with non-invasive ventilation.Multivariate analysis revealed that botulinum toxin type,pneumonia,incubation period,degree of hypoxia,and severity of muscle involvement were independent risk factors for MV.These risk factors were incorporated into a multivariate logistic regression analysis to establish a prognostic scoring system.Each risk factor was scored by allocating a weight based on its regression coefficient and rounded to whole numbers for practical utilization([botulinum toxin type A:1],[pneumonia:2],[incubation period≤1 day:2],[hypoxia<90%:2],[severity of muscle involvement:grade II,3;grade III,7;grade IV,11]).The scoring system achieved an area under the ROC curve of 0.82(95%CI 0.75-0.89,P<0.001).At the optimal threshold of 9,the scoring system achieved a sensitivity of 83.7%and a specificity of 70.2%. CONCLUSION:Our study identified botulinum toxin type,pneumonia,incubation period,degree of hypoxia,and severity of muscle involvement as independent risk factors for MV in botulism patients.A score≥9 in our scoring system is associated with a higher likelihood of requiring MV in botulism patients.This scoring system needs to be validated externally before it can be applied in clinical settings.

Grip strength, 6-meter walking speed and 5-times sit to stand test were conducted by experienced team members.Skin autofluorescence was used to detect skin AGEs.A portable optical scanner was used to detect heavy metals and trace elements using reference points of the palm.Levels of fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, high-density lipoprotein and other common blood biochemical indicators were measured.Results:A total of 106 subjects were enrolled, including 68 in the young and middle-aged group and 38 in the elderly group.The proportion of patients with hypertension(14 ases or 36.8% vs.7 ases or 10.3%), systolic blood pressure[130(120, 140) vs.120(110, 126)mmHg], fasting blood glucose[5.7(5.2, 5.9)mmol/L vs.5.2(4.9, 5.5)mmol/L], glycosylated hemoglobin[6.0(5.7, 6.2)% vs.5.7(5.4, 5.9)%], 8-oxoGsn/Cre[1.9(1.4, 2.6) vs.1.3(1.0, 1.6)], AGEs(2.44±0.46 vs.2.01±0.29), 5-times sit to stand test scores[7.8(6.9, 9.8)s vs.6.0(5.0, 6.8)s], magnesium(31.4±7.2 vs.27.7±6.4), mercury(0.013±0.003 vs.0.008±0.003)and silver[0.011(0.010, 0.012) vs.0.010(0.009, 0.011)]were higher in the elderly group than in the young and middle-aged group, while grip strength[28.0(22.0, 35.1)kg vs.36.6(28.5, 49.1)kg], fat-free mass[44.9(37.5, 51.1)kg vs.53.3(42.4, 58.5)kg], trunk muscle mass[21.0(17.5, 23.9)kg vs.25(19.8, 27.4)kg], appendicular skeletal muscle mass[20.9(17.6, 23.9)kg vs.24.9(19.8, 27.3)kg], calcium[273.3(219.1, 480.0) vs.457.8(428.5, 489.1)], cobalt[0.029(0.027, 0.031) vs.0.031(0.028, 0.034)], selenium[1.44(0.93, 1.71) vs.1.61(1.53, 1.68)]and nickel[3.5(3.3, 4.0)*10 -3vs.3.8(3.6, 4.1)*10 -3]were lower in the elderly group than in the young and middle-aged group( P<0.05). Urinary 8-oxoGsn/Cre levels were positively correlated with age, time of 5-times sit to stand test, AGEs, fasting blood glucose, mercury and aluminum( rs=0.443, 0.292, 0.357, 0.205, 0.316 and 0.214, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with trunk muscle mass, appendicular skeletal muscle mass, fat-free mass, grip strength, silicon and manganese( rs=-0.334, -0.333, -0.332, -0.366, -0.246 and -0.234, P<0.05), with statistical significance. Conclusions:Increased urinary 8-oxoGsn/Cre levels are correlated with decreased muscle mass, poor physical function, accumulation of AGEs, decreased trace element levels and increased heavy metal levels.Therefore, 8-oxoGsn has the potential to be a broadly representative and sensitive indicator for health assessment.

Objective:To study on the effects of gastrointestinal function and portal vein hemodynamics applicated with abdominal hot compressing with evodiae fructus and crude salt after hepatectomy.Methods:A total of 60 patients who underwent hepatectomy were randomly divided into 2 groups by random number table method, with 30 in each group. The control group was treated with conventional basic western medicine, while the treatment group was treated with medicinal evodiae fructus and crude salt hot compress on abdomen on the basis of the control group. The portal vein diameter (PVD), portal venous flow velocity (PVV), recovery time of main clinical indexes, clinical symptom scores and liver function indexes were dynamically monitored at different observation time points.Results:The scores of abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group 3 days after treatment ( t values were -3.489 and -2.740, respectively, all Ps<0.05). The recovery time of bowel sounds, first exhaust time and first defecation time in the treatment group were significantly earlier than those in the control group ( t values were -3.622, -4.297 and -4.151, respectively, all Ps<0.01). With the extension of treatment time, ALT in 2 groups showed a gradual downward trend ( P<0.05 or P<0.01), DBIL in control group was significantly higher at 3 days after treatment than before ( t=-2.157, P=0.039), and TBIL was significantly lower at 7 days after treatment than before ( t=2.175, P=0.038). The PVD ( t values were 3.528, 2.160) and PVV ( t values were 11.096, 4.264) of the treatment group were significantly higher than those of the control group 3 and 5 days after treatment ( P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusion:Early application of abdominal hot compressing with evodiae fructus and crude salt hot compress on abdomen after hepatectomy can improve the portal vein blood circulation and promote the rehabilitation of gastrointestinal function in patients with hepatectomy.
