ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Shaoyaotang regulates the miRNA-155-mediated suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 （SOCS1）/Janus kinase 1 （JAK1）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 （STAT1） signaling pathway and thereby affects macrophage polarization. MethodsThe cell-counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was used to detect the effect of drug-containing serum of Shaoyaotang at different concentrations on the viability of RAW 264.7 cells. A cell model of inflammation was established by stimulating RAW264.7 cells with lipopolysaccharide （LPS） at a concentration of 10 mg·L^-1 The modeled cells were assigned by the random number table method into seven groups： LPS-induced M1 polarization （model）， M1+miRNA-155 mimics， M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor， M1+Shaoyaotang-containing serum， M1+miRNA-155 mimics+Shaoyaotang-containing serum， M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor+Shaoyaotang-containing serum， and M1+blank serum. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the levels of inflammatory factors ［tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-1β （IL-1β）］. Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect the expression of macrophage polarization markers ［inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） and macrophage mannose receptor 1 （CD206）］. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the expression of miRNA-155 in cells. Western blot was performed to determine the protein levels of SOCS1， STAT1， and JAK1. ResultsCompared with the LPS-induced M1 polarization （model） group， the M1+miRNA-155 mimics group showed up-regulated expression of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS （P<0.05） and down-regulated expression of CD206 （P<0.05）. In both the M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor group and the M1+Shaoyaotang-containing serum group， the expression levels of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS were down-regulated （P<0.05）， while those of SOCS1 and CD206 were up-regulated （P<0.05）. Compared with the M1+miRNA-155 mimics group， the M1+miRNA-155 mimics+Shaoyaotang-containing serum group showed down-regulated expression of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS （P<0.05） and up-regulated expression of SOCS1 and CD206 （P<0.05）. Compared with the M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor group， the M1+miRNA-155 inhibitor+Shaoyaotang-containing serum group showed down-regulated expression of miRNA-155， JAK1， STAT1， TNF-α， IL-6， IL-1β， and iNOS （P<0.05） and up-regulated expression of SOCS1 and CD206 （P<0.05）. ConclusionShaoyaotang regulates macrophage polarization by modulating miRNA-155 expression and interfering with the SOCS1/JAK1/STAT1 signaling pathway. The findings provide new experimental evidence for the treatment of ulcerative colitis with Shaoyaotang.

BackgroundCurrently， the problem of depressed mood in college students is becoming more prominent. The experience of childhood maltreatment is a significant contributor to depression among college students. Although the association between the two has been confirmed， the specific psychosocial mechanisms underlying how childhood maltreatment affects college students' mental health remain insufficiently evidenced. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties in the relationship between childhood maltreatment and depression among college students， and to investigate the moderated effects of psychological resilience and family socioeconomic status， aiming to provide references for improving depressive symptoms in college students. MethodsOn 14 March 2024， a cluster sampling method was employed to recruit 751 college students from a university in Heilongjiang Province. Participants were assessed with Childhood Trauma Questionnaire （CTQ）， Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale （DERS）， Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9）， 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale （CD-RISC-10） and Family Socioeconomic Status Questionnaire. Pearson correlation analysis was adopted to examine the correlation between the scores of scales. Model 4 and model 7 in Process 4.2 were used to test the mediating effects of emotional regulation difficulties and the moderated effects of psychological resilience and family socioeconomic status. Results① A total of 712 （94.81%） valid questionnaires were collected. ② College students' CTQ score was positively correlated with DERS score and PHQ-9 score （r=0.296， 0.507， P<0.01）， and negatively correlated with CD-RISC-10 score and Family Socioeconomic Status Questionnaire score （r=-0.148， -0.229， P<0.01）. ③ The indirect effect value of difficulties in emotion regulation on the relationship between childhood maltreatment and depression was 0.091 （95% CI： 0.018~0.046）， accounting for 17.95% of the total effect. ④ The first half of the mediation model "childhood maltreatment → difficulties in emotion regulation → depression" （childhood maltreatment → difficulties in emotion regulation） was moderated by psychological resilience （β=-0.030， t=-6.147， 95% CI： -0.040~-0.020） and family socioeconomic status （β=-0.051， t=-3.929， 95% CI： -0.077~-0.026）. ConclusionChildhood maltreatment exerts both a direct effect on college students' depression and an indirect effect through emotion regulation difficulties. The childhood maltreatment → emotion regulation difficulties pathway in this mediation model is moderated by psychological resilience and family socioeconomic status. ［Funded by Qiqihar Medical University Graduate Student Innovation Fund Project （number， QYYCX2023-48）； Special Research Fund Project for Young Doctors of Qiqihar Academy of Medical Sciences （number， QMSI2021B-08）］

Objective:To construct and evaluate a training program for cardiovascular nurse specialists based on a core competency framework.Methods:Among 61 trainees participating in the first training class for cardiovascular nurse specialists organized by a provincial nursing society, a training program focusing on the nine core competencies for cardiovascular nurse specialists was implemented, which consisted of 4-week theoretical and 4-week practical training. The effectiveness of the training program was evaluated using the Kirkpatrick model. Data analyses were performed by using SPSS 26.0. Categorical data were presented as the number of cases; continuous variables in normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation; and continuous variables in non-normal distribution were presented as median (interquartile range) and compared using non-parametric tests.Results:At the reaction level, the satisfaction rates of trainees with the theoretical and practical sections of the training program were 98.36% (60/61) and 95.08% (58/61), respectively. At the learning level, the comprehensive assessment score of the trainees was (83.01±3.39) points, and all of them successfully obtained their completion certificates, with a pass rate of 100.00% (61/61). At the behavior level, the core competencies for cardiovascular nurse specialists were significantly improved after training [the total score increased from 291.00 (254.00, 334.25) to 410.50 (354.50, 433.00), P<0.001]. At the results level, at six months after training, there were significant increases in the number of participants engaging in cardiovascular care practices, clinical nursing education and guidance, leadership roles, and research projects within their units as well as the number of individuals achieving career advancement (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The trainees are highly satisfied with the core competency-focused cardiovascular nurse training program, which can improve core competencies and cardiovascular nursing capabilities, expand the scope of cardiovascular nursing services, and foster the sustained advancement of the participants.

OBJECTIVE To explore the expressions of eosinophilic chemotactic factor 11(CCL11),leukotriene B4(LTB4),percentage of neutrophils(NEUT％)and C-reactive protein(CRP)in peripheral blood of the children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP)infection complicated with plastic bronchitis and analyze the clinical signifi-cance.METHODS A total of 80 children with MP pneumonia complicated with plastic bronchitis who were trea-ted in the Second Hospital of Longyan City,Fujian Province from Jan.2020 to Dec.2023 were assigned as the study group,and 115 patients with MP pneumonia were chosen as the control group.The clinical data,manifesta-tions and Pediatric Risk of Mortality Ⅲ(PRISM Ⅲ)score were statistically analyzed.The levels of peripheral blood CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP were observed and compared between the two groups.Pearson analysis was performed for the associations of the levels of CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP with the PRISM Ⅲscore.The value of the joint detection of CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP in diagnosis of the MP pneumoni-a-induced plastic bronchitis was analyzed.RESULTS There were significant differences in reduction of bronchial breathing sound,pleural effusion and PRISM Ⅲ score between the two groups(P＜0.05).There were significant differences in the levels of peripheral blood CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP between the study group and the control group(P＜0.05);the CRP level of the study group was(29.42±8.14)mg/L,higher than that of the control group(t=10.138,P＜0.001).The levels of CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP were positively correlated with the PRISM Ⅲ score(r=0.723,0.710,0.771,0.754,respectively,all P＜0.001).The area under the curve(AUC)of the single detection of CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP was remarkably higher in diagnosis of MP pneumonia-induced plastic bronchitis than that of the joint detection of the four markers(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS The children with MP pneumonia complicated with plastic bronchitis show increased expressions of CCL11,LTB4,NEUT％and CRP.The four markers are positively correlated with the PRISM Ⅲ score.The four markers have high values in diagnosis of the MP pneumonia complicated with plastic bronchitis.

Aim To study the effect of p-benzoyl sali-droside(pOBz)on angiogenesis after ischemic stroke and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods The MCAO model was prepared by suture method.Rats were divided into four groups:sham,MCAO,pOBz administration,and edaravone positive control,treated for seven days.The mNSS was used to assess the neurological impairment.Western blotting was em-ployed to detect CD31,NICD,and Hes-1 protein ex-pression,while immunofluorescence staining was ap-plies to quantify CD31-positive cells in ischemic brain tissue.In vitro an OGD/R model was established in HUVECs.Following treatment with varying pOBz con-centrations(0.01,0.1,1 μmol·L-1),the CCK-8 as-say was uses to measure cell viability,and in vitro tube formation assay was utilized to evaluate angiogenesis.Western blotting was employed again to assess CD31,NICD and Hes-1 protein levels.To further elucidate the mechanism,HUVEC were treated with the Notch inhibitor DAPT prior to grouping and pOBz administra-tion,and the same parameters were evaluated.Results pOBz significantly reduced the mNSS score of MCAO rats,increased CD31-positive cell counts,and upregu-lated CD31,NICD,and Hes-1 protein expression(P＜0.01).In vitro results further showed that pOBz could dose-dependently increase the survival rate and angio-genesis ability of HUVEC induced by OGD/R,and promote CD31,NICD and Hes-1 proteins(P＜0.01),and Notch inhibitor DAPT could reverse the above effects of pOBz.Conclusion pOBz promotes angio-genesis in HUVEC,and its mechanism involves activa-tion of the Notch signaling pathway.
