OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of high-dose ilaprazole combined with amoxicillin for newly diagnosed elderly patients with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection, and analyze independent risk factors for failure of Hp infection eradication treatment. METHODS Totally 200 cases of newly diagnosed elderly patients with Hp infection in Xinxiang Central Hospital from August 1, 2021 to December 1, 2024 were selected and randomly divided into control group and study group, with 100 cases in each group. The control group was treated with classic quadruple therapy regimen (Amoxicillin capsules+ Clarithromycin tablets+Bismuth potassium citrate tablets+Ilaprazole enteric-coated tablets). The study group was treated with high- dose Ilaprazole enteric-coated tablets+Amoxicillin capsules. All patients were administered medication for 2 weeks. Hp eradication rates in the two groups were compared using intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses. The incidence of adverse reactions in both groups was also recorded. The multiple-factor Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for failure of Hp infection eradication treatment. RESULTS In ITT and PP analyses, there was no significant difference of Hp eradication rates between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence of mild to moderate adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). BMI ≤18.5 kg/m2, BMI >23.9 kg/m2, rural residence, concomitant diabetes and concomitant heart disease were identified as independent risk factors influencing the failure of Hp infection eradication treatment (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The efficacy and safety of high-dose ilaprazole combined with amoxicillin are comparable to classic quadruple therapy regimen in treating newly diagnosed elderly patients with Hp infection. Independent risk factors influencing the failure of Hp infection eradication treatment include BMI ≤18.5 kg/m2, BMI >23.9 kg/m2, rural residence, concomitant diabetes and concomitant heart disease.

Oxidative stress due to aberrant metabolism is considered as a crucial contributor to diabetes and its complications. Hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia boost excessive reactive oxygen species generation by elevated mitochondrial respiration, increased nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase activity, and enhanced pro-oxidative processes, including protein kinase C pathways, hexosamine, polyol, and advanced glycation endproducts, which exacerbate oxidative stress. Oxidative stress plays a significant role in the onset of diabetes and its associated complications by impairing insulin production, increasing insulin resistance, maintaining hyperglycemic memory, and inducing systemic inflammation. A more profound comprehension of the molecular processes that link oxidative stress to diabetes is crucial to new preventive and therapeutic strategies. Therefore, this review discusses the mechanisms underlying how oxidative stress contributes to diabetes mellitus and its complications. We also summarize the current approaches for prevention and treatment by targeting the oxidative stress pathways in diabetes.

Objective:Effects of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction on osteoclast differentiation of RAW264.7 cells.Methods:Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) was used to induce differentiation of RAW264.7 cells into osteoclasts. CCK-8 method was used to screen experimental drug concentrations and analyze the cytotoxicity of drug intervention on RAW264.7 cells. TRAP staining method was used to quantitatively detect the effects of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction on osteoclast differentiation ability. RT-PCR technology was used to detect the mRNA expressions of osteoclast differentiation genes TRAP, MMP-9, CK, CTR. Western blot was used to detect osteoclast-related protein expressions of NF-κBP65, IκB-αTRAP, and TRAP.Results:After 72 hours of intervention, 0.800, 4.000, 20.000, and 100.000 mg/ml of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction could inhibit cell proliferation ( P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the number of TRAP-positive cells decreased ( P<0.05) in the 5, 20, 80, and 160 μg/ml Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction groups. Additionally, the mRNA levels of TRAP, MMP-9, CK, and CTR decreased ( P<0.05), the expression of NF-κB p65 and TRAP proteins decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of IκB-α protein increased ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction can inhibit the expressions of TRAP, MMP-9, CK, CTR genes and TRAP protein, reduce the degradation of I κ B - α protein by inhibiting the NF - κ B signaling pathway, inhibit the expression of NF - κ B p65 protein, and thus inhibit the differentiation of RAW264.7 into osteoclasts.

OBJECTIVE:
To analyze the diversity of Duffy blood group gene among ethnic Hui population from Henan Province using PacBio long-read sequencing technique.
METHODS:
Randomly select 30 individuals with three generations of Hui ancestry from Henan as the study subjects. Full-length sequences of the Duffy blood group gene were obtained through PacBio long-read sequencing. Distribution of the predicted phenotype and genotype frequency were determined, and the linkage between Duffy haplotypes and variation sites was analyzed. Genetic diversity, natural selection pressure, and population genetic characteristics were evaluated. This study was approved by the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethics No. 2022223).
RESULTS:
The predicted Duffy blood group phenotype in the Henan Hui population was predominantly Fy(a+b-). Three novel SNPs in the FY*01 allele were identified, with a total frequency of 13.33%, among which FY*01.NEW1 (c.199C>T) was the most common. A total of 32 variant sites were identified, with 28 located in intronic regions, indicating that genetic diversity was primarily concentrated in introns. The Duffy blood group gene was under negative selection pressure (dN/dS < 1, Tajima's D, Fu and Li's D* and F* significantly deviated from 0), suggesting overall conservation. The allele frequencies of Duffy blood group in the Henan Hui population was similar to that of the Xinjiang Hui, Xinjiang Kazakh, Inner Mongolia Mongolian, and Yuncheng Han populations, but significantly different from those of most Han and other ethnic groups (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
This study revealed the characteristics of the Duffy blood group gene among the Henan Hui population and demonstrated the significant advantages of PacBio long-read sequencing technique in haplotype analysis, genetic diversity study, and novel mutation identification.

Rapid and living guidelines are those developed in response to public health emergencies in a short period of time using a scientific and standardized approach. Subsequently, they provide timely and credible recommendations for decision makers through regular and frequent updates of clinical evidence and recommendations. In this paper, we introduced the definition of rapid and living guideline as well as analyzed the basic characteristics of eight rapid and living guidelines in the field of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) published till 2023 June, summarizing three core methodological issues in relation to how to rapidly develop guidelines, how to formulate recommendations when there is lack of evidence, and how to ensure the timeliness of guidelines. Based on the analysis of current rapid and living guidelines, it is implicated that there is necessity to carry out rapid and living guideline in the field of TCM, and the methodology of rapid integration of multivariate evidence in the field of TCM needs to be further explored; furthermore, it is necessary to further explore the obstacles of implementation of guidelines and promote timely updating, all of which provide certain theoretical references for relevant guideline developers and researchers.

It is necessary to develop rapid and living guidelines in order to improve the evidence translation and guidance for clinical practice in emergency situations, and to enhance the participation of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in management of emergencies. This paper introduced the process of developing rapid and living guidelines of TCM and divided it into three stages, that is preparation, rapid development and dynamic updating, which highlights the features of rapid development, high quality, and dynamic updating and the integration with the predominance of TCM. By comparing with general guidelines on composition, personnel number, timing to formulate and communication patterns of the guideline working groups, as well as the content and number of clinical questions, this paper mainly gave suggestions on how to formulate a concise but authoritative team during the preparation stage, how to efficiently manage the guideline team and promote the development process from conflict of interest management, working and communication mode adjustment, and how to formulate and update the important and prioritized clinical questions, all of which may provide reference for the development of TCM rapid and living guidelines.

The lack of direct evidence is an important problem faced in the formation of recommendations in rapid living guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine under public health emergencies, and the supplementation of indirect evidence can be a key method to solve this problem. For the collection of evidence, the type of evidence required, including direct and indirect evidence, should be clarified, and ‘direct first’ principle for selecting evidence can be set to standardize and accelerate the guideline development. When integrating evidence, recommendations can be formed directly if there is sufficient direct evidence, while regarding insufficient direct evidence, recommendations need to be supplemented and improved by integrating indirect evidence. In addition, when the body of evidence contains evidence from multiple sources, it is suggested to rate the evidence according to “higher rather than lower” principle. Finally, when forming recommendations, the level of evidence, safety and economic efficiency should be taken into consideration to determine the strength of the recommendation.

In developing rapid and living guidelines of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) in response to public health emergencies, it is important that evidence continue to be reviewed, and clinical questions and recommendations updated if necessary, due to the rapid changes in disease progression and the continuous generation of relevant research evidence. This paper proposed that the updating scope in dynamic mode should first be identified; then evidence monitoring should be carried out in four aspects, including clinical research, related guidelines or laws and regulations, disease progression, as well as clinical use of recommendations and clinical needs; finally, based on the results of the evidence monitoring, different options should be made, including revising the clinical questions, updating the evidence and recommendations, and withdrawing the guideline.
