Objective:To investigate the differences in protein profile expression in serum samples from children with corona virus disease 2019（COVID-19）related encephalopathy and to explore the underlying mechanisms.Methods:From December 1,2022 to January 31,2023,28 children with COVID-19 who were admitted to the Department of Pediatric Intensive Medicine at Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University were collected,including 21 patients with encephalopathy(COVID-19 with encephalopathy group) and seven patients without encephalopathy(COVID-19 without encephalopathy group).Three children from each group were selected for serum proteomic analysis using tandem mass spectrometry labeling proteomics technology.Proteins were considered significantly different if the fold change was >1.2 or <0.8，with P<0.05.Bioinformatics analysis，including Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes Pathway Enrichment were performed on differentially expressed proteins.Protein-protein interaction networks were analyzed using the STRING database.Selected proteins were further validated by enzyme-linked immunosorbert assay. Results:A total of 41 differentially expressed proteins were identified between the two groups.Among these，14 proteins were upregulated and 27 proteins were downregulated in COVID-19 patients with encephalopathy compared to those without encephalopathy.Bioinformatics analysis revealed that these proteins were primarily enriched in critical signaling pathways，including complement and coagulation regulation，neutrophil degranulation and activation，and platelet degranulation.Enzyme-linked immunosorbert assay validation confirmed significant differences in key coagulation-regulating proteins(von willebrand factor upregulated，serpin family F member 2 downregulated in COVID-19 patients with encephalopatly）between the two groups.Conclusion:Coagulation dysfunction may play a role in the development of COVID-19 associated encephalopathy in children，providing valuable insights for future research.

Objective To observe the effect of Bushen Gutai mixture on uterine blood supply of rat model of abortion induced by hydroxyurea tablets combined with mifepristone through PKA-CREB signal pathway and its mechanism of calming fetus.Methods 60 pregnant rats of SPF grade SD rats were prepared by closing cages at 2∶1.According to the order of pregnancy,60 pregnant rats were randomly divided into 6 groups with 10 rats in each group:Bushen Gutai mixture group(low,middle and high dose),normal pregnancy group,model group and Di qu progesterone group.On the 1st to 9th day of pregnancy,except the normal group,the pregnant rats in each group were gavaged with hydroxyurea tablets at 5∶00 pm every day(450 mg·kg-1),and at 10∶00 am on the 10th day of pregnancy.Mifepristone tablets were given by intragastric administration(4.0 mg·kg-1).At 9∶00 am every day from the 1st to 9th day of pregnancy,Bushen Gutai mixture was given to the low,middle and high dose groups(0.5,1.0,2.0 g·kg-1),didrone group(3.02 mg·kg-1),model group and normal pregnancy group with 0.9%normal saline.24 hours after the last administration of pentobarbital sodium(50 mg kg-1),all pregnant rats were killed by intraperitoneal injection of pentobarbital sodium,and the uterine decidual tissue of pregnant rats was bluntly isolated in sterile environment.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the lumen diameter and wall thickness of spiral artery in uterine decidual tissue.Immunohistochemical staining(IHC)was used to detect the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in decidual tissues.Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of phosphorylated protein kinase A,protein kinase A,phosphorylated cyclic adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein,Cyclic Adenosine monophosphate response element binding protein and aquaporin 5 in the decidua of pregnant rats.The apoptosis of decidual cells was detected by in situ end labeling(TUNEL)of DNA fragmentation.Results Compared with the model group,the wall thickness of spiral artery was higher than that in other groups(P<0.05),the lumen diameter was lower than that in other groups(P<0.05)and the expression of VEGF protein was lower than that of other groups(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the apoptosis level of decidual cells in uterine decidua of abortive rats in high,middle and low dose groups of Bushen Gutai mixture and diqu progesterone group decreased in varying degrees.Bushen Gutai mixture can up-regulate the levels of p-PKA/PKA and p-CREB/CREB in uterine decidua(P<0.01)and promote the expression of AQP5 protein in uterine decidua of abortion rats(P<0.01).Conclusion Bushen Gutai mixture can improve uterine blood supply of aborted rats by activating PKA and CREB phosphorylation,up-regulating AQP5 expression,promoting physiological recasting of spiral artery and high expression of Vascular endothelial growth factor.
