OBJECTIVE To prepare the β -cyclodextrin （ β -CD） inclusion complex with volatile oil from Qianghuo qushi qingwen granules， and to characterize and quantitatively analyze the inclusion complex. METHODS The comprehensive scores calculated by inclusion rate and inclusion compound yield were used as indicators for screening the inclusion method. The single-factor experiments and Box-Behnken response surface experiments were used to op timize the inclusion conditions， with the above comprehensive score as response value， and taking the ratio of β -CD to volatile oil， inclusion temperature and inclusion time as indexes. The volatile oil inclusion complex of Qianghuo qushi qingwen granules was prepared according to the determined optimal process， followed by validation. Ultraviolet （UV）-visible spectroscopy， thin-layer chromatography （TLC）， and microscopic imaging were also performed. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography was used to determine the contents of perillaldehyde， pogostone and atractylodin. RESULTS The saturation aqueous solution method was adopted. The optimal inclusion process conditions were as follows： the ratio of β -CD to volatile oil was 7.5∶1， the inclusion temperature was 40 ℃， and the inclusion time was 2.2 h. In three verification experiments， the average inclusion rate was 72.32%， the average yield of inclusion compound was 74.45%， the average comprehensive score was 72.96 points， and the relative error with the predicted value （74.15 points） of the model was 1.61%. UV-visible spectroscopy， TLC and microscopic imaging showed that β -CD and volatile oil successfully formed a new inclusion complex. The average contents of perillaldehyde， pogostone and atractylodin were 4.498 2， 0.814 9， 0.905 7 mg/g， respectively， with RSDs of 0.31%， 0.56% and 0.63% （ n ＝3）. CONCLUSIONS A stable and feasible preparation process of the volatile oil inclusion complex of Qianghuo qushi qingwen granules is successfully established.

Psoriasis is an incurable chronic inflammatory disease that requires new interventions. Here, we found that fibroblasts exacerbate psoriasis progression by promoting macrophage recruitment via CCL2 secretion by single-cell multi-omics analysis. The natural small molecule celastrol was screened to interfere with the secretion of CCL2 by fibroblasts and improve the psoriasis-like symptoms in both murine and cynomolgus monkey models. Mechanistically, celastrol directly bound to the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) β-chain and abolished its binding to the transcription factor c-Jun in the nucleus, which in turn inhibited CCL2 production by skin fibroblasts, blocked fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and ameliorated psoriasis progression. Notably, fibroblast-specific LRP1 knockout mice exhibited a significant reduction in psoriasis like inflammation. Taken together, from clinical samples and combined with various mouse models, we revealed the pathogenesis of psoriasis from the perspective of fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and provided a foundation for LRP1 as a novel potential target for psoriasis treatment.

Objective To observe the value of artificial intelligence iterative reconstruction(AIIR)combined with 60 kVp scanning in craniocervical CT angiography(CTA).Methods Eighty-six patients with suspected craniocervical vascular diseases were prospectively enrolled and randomly received routine-dose(120 kVp)or low-dose(60 kVp)scanning(each n=43),and contrast dosage and radiation dose were recorded.After scanning,hybrid iterative reconstruction(HIR)was used to reconstruct routine-dose images(group A),while HIR images(group B1)and AIIR images(group B2)were performed to reconstruct low-dose images,respectively.The overall imaging quality,visualization of targeted large and small vessels and diagnostic confidence scores,as well as image noise(SD),signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of targeted large vessels were compared among 3 groups.Results Contrast dosage and effective dose(ED)decreased by 36.52％ and 77.56％ in low-dose scanning compared with those in routine-dose scanning,respectively.No significant difference of subjective scoring of imaging quality indexes was found between groups B2 and A(all adjusted P＞0.05),which were both higher than those in group B1(all adjusted P＜0.05).SD of target large vessels in group B2 than that of most target large vessels in group A(all adjusted P＜0.05)except for aortic arch.SNR and CNR of target large vessels in group B2 were higher than those in group A and B1(all adjusted P＜0.05),while SD of target large vessels in group B2 were lower than in group B1.Conclusion AIIR combined with 60 kVp scanning in craniocervical CTA could meet diagnostic requirements of imaging quality and reduce contrast dosage and radiation dose.

To investigate the impact of miR-142-5p on intestinal epithelial cells,an expression vector for overexpressing miR-142-5p lentivirus was constructed and administered to mice to observe pathological changes in their colon tissue.The miR-142-5p gene was integrated into the green fluo-rescent lentiviral vector plenti-CMV/TO eGFP-Puro(plenti),and the resulting recombinant vec-tor was named plenti miR-142-5p following confirmation through sequencing.293T cells were transfected with the recombinant plasmid and packaging-assisted plasmid,yielding a packaged miR-142-5p overexpressing lentiviral vector(LV-miR-142-5p).The recombinant lentivirus suspen-sion was collected and concentrated via ultrafast centrifugal precipitation.Virus titer was deter-mined using real-time PCR.The virus suspension was then injected into the tail vein of 6-8-week-old BALB/c mice,after which their colonic tissues were dissected for HE staining and microscopic observation.The results showed that miR-142-5p homologous recombination into plenti vector and sequencing results were consistent with the expected sequence.plenti-miR-142-5p was co-transfect-ed with the packaging helper plasmid in 293T cells,and the successful transfection was confirmed based on the green fluorescence expression,and the real-time PCR results showed that the lentiviral titer was 1.23 × 109 IU/mL.Colon tissue slices from infected mice exhibited compromised colon integrity and significant inflammatory response.It was proved that LV-miR-142-5p was suc-cessfully constructed,and miR-142-5p caused damage to intestinal epithelial cells of mice.

The construction of a benchmark hospital for Chinese-style modernization occupies an important position within the grand framework of China′s implementation of the Healthy China strategy and its commitment to achieving comprehensive, coordinated, and sustainable economic and social development. In 2023, Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated with Zhejiang University School of Medicine, officially proposed the strategic goal of " building a benchmark hospital for Chinese-style modernization" and began to explore and implement this vision. This study, based on the practices of the hospital, analyzed the connotation and characteristics of a benchmark hospital for Chinese-style modernization. It also summarized the strategic positioning and construction pathways of the hospital in achieving this goal, with the aim of providing references for the advancement of the construction of benchmark hospitals for Chinese-style modernization.

With the deepening of the high-quality development philosophy, hospital management modes should transition towards refinement and systematization, urgently necessitating the establishment of a new organizational capability system tailored to this transformation. In the process of building a benchmark hospital for Chinese-style modernization, the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated with Zhejiang University School of Medicine has developed the " Shaw Medical Mode" for organizational capability system construction, encompassing three core dimensions: the platform ecosystem strategy, co-creation leadership, and the agile operational mode. Among these, the platform ecosystem strategy represented the development of " hard power", reflecting systematic thinking; Co-creation leadership shaped the " soft power", demonstrating the characteristics of ecosystem co-creation; and the agile operational mode ensured " execution capability", showing a high degree of agility. These three dimensions complement each other, collectively forging a continuously evolving Shaw Medical service ecosystem. This approach has effectively enhanced the hospital′s operational quality and efficiency, promoted discipline development and operational mode innovation, and can serve as a reference for the modernization of hospitals in China.

Upon penetration into the host organism,the decapsulated larvae(intestinal infective stage 1 larvae)of Trichinella spiralis(T.spiralis)proceed to invade the host's small intestinal epithelial cells to continue their development,which is a critical step for T.spiralis infection and pathogenesis.Based on our prior research,the Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7 protein,which is present in the adult stage of T.spiralis,has a role in promoting the parasite's invasion of the intestinal epithelium.This is achieved by disrupting the integrity of the intestinal barrier,consequently promoting the parasitization of these cells in the host organism.Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7 can induce differential expression of various miRNAs,among which miR-142-5p has been reported to be involved in disrupting the intestinal barrier.Therefore,in this study,we investigated the mechanism by which Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7-induced miR-142-5p regulates intestinal epithelial cell barrier function by affecting target genes.The experiment was divided into Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7-treated group,miR-142-5p overexpression group(OE),miR-142-5p inhibition group(Inhibition),negative control group(NC)and control group(Control),lentiviral vectors for overexpression and suppression of miR-142-5p expression were used to infect human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells Caco-2 at an MOI of 80,and puromycin(8 mg/L)was used to screen cells to obtain cell lines that stably suppressed the expression of miR-142-5p and cell lines that miR-142-5p was overexpressed,cell transfection efficiency was assessed by fluorescence microscopy,and the relative expression of miR-142-5p was detected by RT-qPCR in each group of cells.The target gene Claudin-1(CLDN1)was predicted and validated using miR target prediction database,RT-qPCR,Western blot and dual luciferase assay.HE staining,Western blot and quantitative analysis of monolayer transmembrane electrical resistance(TEER)and FITC permeability were then applied to elucidate the mechanism of action of miR-142-5p.Caco-2 cells were lentivirally infected and successful transfection was verified by fluorescence microscopy and RT-qPCR.Dual luciferase and Western blot results showed that CLDN1 was a direct target gene of miR-142-5p(P＜0.001).Compared to the Ts-DNaseⅡ-7 alone treatment group and the OE+Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7 group,the miR-142-5p inhibited expression group and alleviated Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7-induced down-regulation of CLDN1 mRNA and protein levels(P＜0.01 and P＜0.05,respectively)and re-versed the decrease in TEER and elevated permeability(P＜0.01).Ts-DNase Ⅱ-7 up-regulates miR-142-5p expression,causing reduced CLDN1 expression and impaired intestinal barrier function in Caco-2 monolayer cells,which in turn promotes T.spiralis invasion of the intestinal epithelium to achieve further development.

Objective:To investigate the quantification assessment of segmental volume after thigh liposuction utilizing three-dimensional(3D) scanning technology.Methods:This retrospective study was performed with the analysis of 3D scanning images of patients who had undergone bilateral thigh liposuction in Body Contouring & Fat Grafting Center, Plastic Surgery Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from January 2018 to September 2022. Preoperative and postoperative 3D scanning were performed to build visual 3D models of bilateral thighs. From top to the bottom, bilateral thighs were segmented into seven sections with a space of 5 cm in acquired 3D model. Certain measurements and calculation of preoperative and postoperative volume and volume change rate of the overall thigh and each segment were conducted, to validate the efficiency of liposuction (EOL). Additionally, EOL of each thigh segment was computed and the symmetry of bilateral thighs was analyzed before and after surgery. The volume differences were computed using the paired Wilcoxon rank-sum test, and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was exerted to assess the symmetry of bilateral thighs before and after surgery.Results:A total of 36 female patients were included in the study, with an age range of 18 to 49 years and a mean age of (28.6±7.6) years. Follow-up duration ranged from 23 to 1 133 days postoperatively, with a mean follow-up period of 274.7 days. The results of 3D scanning measurements indicated significant changes ( P<0.01) in both the overall volume of the thigh and the volumes of each segment before and after surgery. The highest volume change rate and EOL were observed in the uppermost segment, and the volumetric change rate and EOL exhibited a descending trend across the segments of the thigh from the uppermost to the lowermost segments. The ICC of the volume of each segment consistently surpassed 0.950 whether preoperatively or postoperatively, indicating a high level of symmetry between the bilateral thighs, and the ICC of overall volume showed a notable increase from 0.992 preoperatively to 0.997 postoperatively. Conclusion:3D scanning technology can be exerted to quantify the volume changes before and after thigh liposuction. This study provided quantitative and objective evidence to confirm the efficacy of thigh liposuction procedure, elucidating that the most significant liposuction effects observed in the uppermost segment of the thigh. Moreover, postoperative assessments reveal a further enhancement in bilateral thigh symmetry.
