Based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-Exactive Orbitrap mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS) technology and network pharmacology, this study explored the pharmacodynamic substances and potential mechanisms of Huazhuo Sanjie Chubi Decoction in the treatment of gouty arthritis(GA). UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS technology was used to identify the components in Huazhuo Sanjie Chubi Decoction, and the qualitative analysis of its active ingredients was carried out, with a total of 184 active ingredients identified. A total of 897 active ingredient targets were screened through the PharmMapper database, and 491 GA-related disease targets were obtained from the OMIM, GeneCards, CTD databases. After Venn analysis, 60 intersecting targets were obtained. The component target-GA target network was constructed through the Cytoscape platform, and the STRING database was used to construct a protein-protein interaction network, with 16 core targets screened. The core targets were subjected to Gene Ontology(GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses, and the component-target-pathway network was constructed. It was found that the main active ingredients of the formula for the treatment of GA were phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids, and the key targets were SRC, MMP3, MMP9, REN, ALB, IGF1R, PPARG, MAPK1, HPRT1, and CASP1. Through GO analysis, it was found that the treatment of GA mainly involved biological processes such as lipid response, bacterial response, and biostimulus response. KEGG analysis showed that the pathways related to the treatment of GA included lipids and atherosclerosis, neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs), IL-17, and so on. In summary, phenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and terpenoids may be the core pharmacodynamic substances of Huazhuo Sanjie Chubi Decoction in the treatment of GA, and the pharmacodynamic mechanism may be related to SRC, MMP3, MMP9, and other targets, as well as lipids and atherosclerosis, NETs, IL-17, and other pathways.

With the growing emphasis on maternal and child oral health, the significance of managing oral health across preconception, pregnancy, and infancy stages has become increasingly apparent. Oral health challenges extend beyond affecting maternal well-being, exerting profound influences on fetal and neonatal oral development as well as immune system maturation. This expert consensus paper, developed using a modified Delphi method, reviews current research and provides recommendations on maternal and child oral health management. It underscores the critical role of comprehensive oral assessments prior to conception, diligent oral health management throughout pregnancy, and meticulous oral hygiene practices during infancy. Effective strategies should be seamlessly integrated across the life course, encompassing preconception oral assessments, systematic dental care during pregnancy, and routine infant oral hygiene. Collaborative efforts among pediatric dentists, maternal and child health workers, and obstetricians are crucial to improving outcomes and fostering clinical research, contributing to evidence-based health management strategies.

Background::Female breast and five gynecological cancers remain substantial burden in China and worldwide. GLOBOCAN 2022 has recently updated the estimates of cancer burden. This study aims to depict the profiles of disease burden and to compare the age-specific rates of female breast and five gynecological cancers in China with those in other countries.Methods::The latest estimates of incidence and mortality of female breast and five gynecological cancers from various regions and countries were extracted from the GLOBOCAN 2022 database. We compared the proportion of total cases or deaths for cancers affecting female breast and five gynecological cancers and other tumor types in China and globally. Correlation analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationship between age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) or age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) and the Human Development Index (HDI). Additionally, age-specific rate curves were plotted for ten exemplary countries with different income levels.Results::Female breast and five gynecological cancers in China accounted for 30.2% of all newly diagnosed cancer cases. Breast cancer and cervical cancer are the most commonly diagnosed, with nearly 507,000 new cases, representing 23.48% of the new cases. The incidence rates of breast, uterine corpus, ovarian, and vulvar cancers were positively associated with HDI tiers. Chinese women aged 50-54 years are experiencing high incidence rates of breast, cervix uteri, corpus uteri, and ovarian cancers.Conclusions::Female breast and five gynecological cancers continue to be a significant health concern for women in China and worldwide. It is crucial to implement comprehensive prevention strategies tailored to address the increasing trend among younger individuals and reduce regional disparities.

The implementation of amplicon sequencing and metagenomic sequencing methods in the whole-genome sequen-cing for MPXV testing was compared,to provide a technical reference for sequencing,tracing,and epidemic prevention and control of MPXV.For amplicon sequencing,targeted amplification of the viral whole genome was performed on MPXV DNA,and was followed by next-generation sequencing of the amplification products.For metagenomic sequencing,next-generation sequencing was performed directly on MPXV DNA.After the sequences were obtained,software such as CLC and IGV were used to analyze the effective data percentage,sequencing depth,and whole-genome sequencing coverage under different sequen-cing depths for both sequencing methods,to evaluate sequencing quality.Nextclade was used to analyze virus typing,muta-tions,and deletions.Subsequently,the similarity and completeness of sequences obtained through both sequencing methods were further compared.On the basis of mapping to the refer-ence sequence of strain MPXV-M5312_HM12_Rivers(Gen-Bank number NC_063383.1),the percentage effective data obtained from amplicon sequencing and metagenomic sequen-cing was 99.72%and 7.54%,respectively,with a sequencing depth range of 0× to 334 839 ×,and 44 × to 1 000 ×.On the basis of a sequencing depth of 10 ×,the site coverage of the above was 90.3%and 100%,respectively.IGV was used to validate the whole-genome coverage under different sequencing depths.The depth coverage of whole-genome sites for metagenomic sequencing was uniform,whereas that of the whole-genome sites for amplicon sequencing was uneven and significantly differed.Virus typing and sequence similarity analysis indicated that the viral sequences obtained with the two sequencing methods all belonged to the Ⅱb B.1 lineage of MPXV.Comparison with the reference sequence indicated that metagenomic sequencing identified 73 nucleotide mutation sites,whereas amplicon sequen-cing identified 68 mutation sites.Further analysis demonstrated that seven common mutation sites of Ⅱb B.1 were not detected in the amplicon sequencing,and two false positive private mutation sites were identified.Amplicon or metagenomic sequencing methods thus can be flexibly used in MPXV virus whole-genome sequencing.Amplicon sequencing yields more effective data,whereas metagenomic sequencing provides better uniformity of coverage and sequence accuracy.This study provides a prelimi-nary understanding of the efficacy of each method and may serve as a technical reference for improving the success rate of whole-genome sequencing of MPXV.

The hemodynamic characteristics of venous reflux are associated with infertility in patients with varicocele; however, an effective method for quantifying the structural distribution of the reflux is lacking. This study aimed to predict surgical outcomes using a new software for venous reflux quantification. This was a retrospective cohort study of a consecutive series of 105 patients (age range: 22-44 years) between July 2017 and September 2019. Venous reflux of the varicocele was obtained using the Valsalva maneuver during scrotal Doppler ultrasonography before microsurgical varicocelectomy. Using this software, the colored reflux signals were segmented, and the gray scale of the color pixels representing the reflux velocity was comprehensively quantified into the mean reflux velocity of the green layer (MRVG) and the reflux velocity standard deviation of the green layer (RVSDG). Spontaneous pregnancy and changes from baseline in the semen parameters were assessed during a 12-month follow-up period. Data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. An association of the high MRVG group with impaired progressive motility (odds ratio [OR] = 2.868, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.133-7.265) and impaired sperm concentration (OR = 2.943, 95% CI: 1.196-7.239) was found during multivariate analysis. High MRVG (OR = 2.680, 95% CI: 1.086-6.614) and high RVSDG (OR = 2.508, 95% CI: 1.030-6.111) were found to be independent predictors of failure to achieve pregnancy following microsurgical repair. In summary, intense venous reflux is an independent predictor of impaired progressive motility, sperm concentration, and pregnancy outcomes after microsurgical varicocelectomy.
