Alcoholic liver disease(ALD)is a liver disease caused by long-term heavy drinking and one of the most common causes of liver-related morbidity and mortality.According to Chinese medicine,the development of ALD is mainly related to alcoholism,and the evolution of its pathology is a gradually aggravating process.Wine-heat injures the liver,without obvious organic lesions at the initial stage,and as the disease progresses to different stages,internal dampness appears,dampness depresses and transforms into heat,and Qi stagnation and blood stasis are gradually aggravated,which affects the functions of various internal organs,directly or indirectly,and creates a complex mechanism of crosstalk between the liver and other organs,which leads to the pathological condition of This leads to the pathological state of multi-organ dysfunction.Modern research has found that long-term alcohol abuse not only causes direct damage to the liver,but also leads to progression to end-stage liver disease by altering the intestinal barrier function and intestinal microbial community,and producing kidney damage and cardiac function.This article reviewed recent studies on the interactions between the liver and other organs in light of the Chinese and Western pathogenesis of alcoholic liver disease and the theory of organ crosstalk,and introduces potential strategies for the treatment of alcoholic liver disease,which will provide a reference for the discovery of new therapeutic avenues.

Objective To construct machine learning models to predict the incidence of linezolid-induced thrombocytopenia(LIT).Methods A total of 198 patients treated with linezolid in a hospital between January 2020 and March 2024 were retrospectively included.Firstly,the patients were divided into LIT and non-LIT groups,and the basic characteristics of the two groups were compared.Then,the variables with significant differences between the two groups were selected as potential risk factors to construct models for predicting LIT,including Logistic regression,decision tree and random forest models,and the prediction performance of the models was evaluated and compared.Results There were 52(26.3%)patients developed LIT during the treatment.The univariate analysis showed significant differences in linezolid trough concentration(Cmin),baseline platelet counts and creatinine clearance,the incidence of cerebrovascular disease,acute respiratory distress syndrome,and abdominal infection in patients with and without LIT.Among the three models built based on these variables,the random forest model has the best predictive performance.The results of variable importance analysis based on random forest model showed that Cmin,baseline platelet count and combined with acute respiratory distress syndrome had higher importance scores.Conclusions The random forest model has high accuracy in predicting the occurrence of LIT,and the risk of LIT is higher in patients with higher levels of linezolid exposure and lower baseline platelets.
