Diabetic kidney disease（DKD） is a chronic kidney structural and functional disorder caused by diabetes. With the global prevalence of diabetes continuing to rise， DKD has gradually become a major cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease（ESRD）， posing a serious threat to patients' quality of life and long-term health outcomes. Studies have shown that apoptosis plays a pivotal role in the development and progression of DKD， with its mechanisms involving abnormal activation of multiple signaling pathways such as Toll-like receptor 4（TLR4）/nuclear transcription factor-κB（NF-κB）/B-cell lymphoma-2（Bcl-2）/cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase（Caspase）-3， protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase（PERK）/eukaryotic initiation factor 2α（eIF2α）/activating transcript factor 4（ATF4）/CCAAT enhancer-binding protein homologous protein（CHOP）， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase（PI3K）/protein kinase B（Akt）/glycogen synthase kinase-3β（GSK-3β）， Janus kinase 2（JAK2）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3（STAT3）， adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase（AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin（mTOR） and silent information regulator 1（SIRT1）/tumor suppressor protein 53（p53）， thereby accelerating renal pathological damage in DKD. Extensive evidence-based medical studies have confirmed that traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）， leveraging its unique therapeutic advantages of multi-target， multi-component and multi-pathway approaches， has demonstrated remarkable efficacy and favorable safety profiles in treating DKD. Recent studies have demonstrated that active components of TCM can specifically target and modulate key effectors in apoptotic signaling pathways. Meanwhile， traditional compound formulations exert synergistic effects through multiple approaches such as replenishing deficiency and activating blood circulation， detoxifying and dredging collaterals， tonifying kidney essence， and removing stasis and purging turbidity， thereby comprehensively regulating critical pathological processes including endoplasmic reticulum stress and mitochondrial apoptosis pathways. This combined therapeutic approach of molecular targeting and holistic regulation provides novel strategies for delaying the progression of DKD. Based on this， this paper provides an in-depth analysis of key apoptotic signaling pathways and their regulatory mechanisms， while systematically summarizing recent research advances regarding the therapeutic effects of TCM active components， compound formulations， and proprietary Chinese medicines on DKD through modulation of these pathways， with particular emphasis on their underlying molecular mechanisms. These findings not only elucidate the modern scientific connotation and theoretical basis of TCM in treating DKD but also establish a solid theoretical and practical foundation for promoting the wider clinical application and further research of TCM in the field of DKD treatment.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological characteristics of 8 major respiratory pathogens in influenza-like illness (ILI) cases with acute respiratory infections at fever clinics in Huangpu District, Shanghai from 2015 to 2024, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of respiratory diseases. MethodsA retrospective study was conducted in Huangpu District. Individuals meeting the case definition of ILI from 2015 to 2024 was registered. Their nasopharyngeal swabs were collected for pathogen detection. A total of 8 respiratory viruses were tested, including Influenza A virus (Flu A), Influenza B virus (Flu B), adenovirus (ADV), enterovirus/human rhinovirus (EV/HRV), human parainfluenza virus (HPIV), human coronavirus (HCoV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and human metapneumovirus (HMPV). ResultsFrom 2015 to 2019, a total of 344 ILI cases were tested, of which 192 out of 344 cases (55.81%) were tested positive for single respiratory pathogen. From 2023 to 2024, 1 557 ILI cases were tested, with 572 out of 1 557 cases (36.74%) being positive for single pathogen. From 2023 to 2024, the positive rate of single pathogen in ILI cases was significantly lower than that in 2015‒2019 (χ²=42.66, P<0.001). Specifically, the positive rate of Flu A (χ²=74.43, P<0.001) decreased, while that of HPIV (χ²=8.66, P=0.003) increased, both with statistically significant differences. According to the seasonal pattern, the epidemic intensity of Flu A decreased in summer, while that of HPIV increased in summer and autumn. Demographic results showed statistically significant differences in the positive rates of EV/HRV between genders (χ²=22.38, P<0.001), with males exhibiting a higher positive rate than females. No statistically significant differences were identified in the positive rates of single pathogen among different age groups (χ²=4.42, P=0.110). Nevertheless, statistically significant differences were noted when comparing the positive rates of EV/HRV, Flu A, Flu B and HPIV across different age groups (P<0.05). EV/HRV was more commonly detected in the 15‒<25 age group (10.93%), while Flu A and HPIV had the highest positive rates in the ≥60 age group (21.24% and 4.77%). Flu B had the highest positive rate in the 25‒<60 age group (11.26%). 52.63% of cases with co-infections occurred during winter, with the primary pathogens involved being EV/HRV (9 cases) and HCoV (6 cases). The most prevalent combination of co-infection was Flu A with EV/HRV. ConclusionThe prevalence of respiratory pathogens among ILI cases from 2023 to 2024 exhibited notable fluctuations compared to that from 2015 to 2019. Therefore, influenza surveillance should be strengthened, and attention should also be paid to the prevalence of respiratory pathogens such as HPIV. These findings have profound implications for future research, surveillance, vaccine planning, and public health policy making.

Objective To investigate the impact of CCND1 on renal ischemia-reperfusion-induced acute kidney injury through the promotion of glycolysis and elucidate its underlying molecular mechanism,thereby offering a novel therapeutic target for acute kidney injury.Methods We selected 8-week-old male C57BL/6 mice to establish a model of renal ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI).To investigate the role of CCND1 in acute kidney injury(AKI),we employed a CCND1 overexpression plasmid and a CCND1 interference plasmid for both in vivo and in vitro experi-ments.Kidney function was evaluated using creatinine and urea nitrogen test kits,while glycolysis and indicators of renal tubule epithelial cell damage were assessed through quantitative real-time PCR,Western blotting,immunohis-tochemistry,and immunofluorescence techniques.Results In the model of renal ischemia-reperfusion-induced acute renal injury,down-regulation of CCND1 expression in renal tubular epithelial cells resulted in cellular and tissue damage.However,when an overexpression plasmid for CCND1 was administered in vivo,it significantly improved kidney function and reduced kidney injury in IRI mice.The overexpression of CCND1 promoted glycolysis,pyruvate production,and increased energy production.We further confirmed the role of CCND1 in vitro where its overexpres-sion promoted glycolysis,enhanced energy production,and alleviated AKI.Conversely,knockdown of CCND1 inhibited glycolysis leading to severe impairment in cell energy production and exacerbation of injury.Conclusions In summary,down-regulation of CCND1 expression in renal tubular epithelial cells is observed in acute kidney injury,while overexpression of CCND1 can ameliorate acute kidney injury induced by renal ischemia-reperfusion.This mechanism may be attributed to the promotion of glycolysis and timely restoration of energy supply to cells and tissues facilitated by CCND1 overexpression.

Objective:To investigate and analyze case reporting ethical review and patient informed consent reports published in the comprehensive journals of clinical medicine in China in 2022.Methods:According to the data from the 2022 Edition of the Chinese Science and Technology Journal of the Citation Reports(Extended Version),the case reports published in comprehensive journals of clinical medicine in 2022 were selected as the research objects.The information on ethics and patient informed consent was extracted from the case reports that met the selection criteria,and Microsoft Excel 2021 and SPSS 21.0 were used to sort out and analyze the data.Results:A total of 587 case reporting articles were published in the 42 included journals in 2022,of which 36(6.13%)reported on science and technology ethics and/or informed consent.Case reports reporting on science and technology ethics and/or informed consent mostly came from the key magazine of China technology(88.89%Vs.65.88%),and the proportion of manuscripts involving science and technology ethics on the official website of the journal was relatively high(86.11%Vs.63.88%),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).Conclusion:The proportion of case reports of science and technology ethics and/or informed consent in journals of comprehensive discipline classification of clinical medicine was relatively low.Currently,most international journals are required to obtain the informed consent of patients or legal guardians before publishing case reports.Compared with this,there are still certain gaps in China,which need to be paid great attention to.

Objective:To investigate the application value of fixation mesh with suture anchor in the repair of parailiac hernia.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 5 patients with parailiac hernia who were admitted to Shaoxing People′s Hospital from March 2016 to February 2019 were collected. There were 4 males and 1 female, aged from 23 to 67 years, with a median age of 49 years. Patients underwent repair of parailiac hernia, in which mesh with suture anchor was fixed on the outside of the defect to the inner side of the ilium. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative conditions; (2) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination or telephone interview was conducted at postoperative 1 week, at postoperative 2 weeks, at postoperative 1, 3, 6 months, at postoperative 1 and 2 years, respectively. The follow-up was up to July 2019. During the follow-up, the conditions about drainage tube removal, incision infection, hernia recurrence, and chronic pain were observed. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range). Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative conditions: 5 patients underwent surgeries successfully, without blood transfusion. The volume of intraoperative blood loss was 100 mL(range, 20-300 mL). The operation time and duration of drainage tube placement were (129±13)minutes and (13.8±1.9)days. Patients were discharged from hospital, without postoperative complications during the hospital stay. The duration of hospital stay was 13 days(range, 8-19 days). (2) Follow-up: patients were followed up for 4-39 months, with a median follow-up time of 16 months. One of the 5 patients was removed drainage tube during the hospital stay and other 4 patients were removed at the outpatient after discharge from the hospital. One patient felt numbness in the surgical site at postoperative 1 month without aggravation during the follow-up, and received no specific treatment. Four patients completed computed tomography examination at postoperative 6 months, without hernia recurrence. There was no incision infection or chronic pain.Conclusions:It is safe and effective to use fixation mesh with suture anchor in the repair of parailiac hernia.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and optimization effect of modifying the Henry Ford Hospital (HFHS) RapidPlan model for stereotactic body radiation therapy planning based on local requirements.Methods:The following changes were made based on Henry Ford Health System(HFHS) Rapid Plan Lung SBRT model, taking the latest clinical guideline evidence and local clinical practice into account: Internal gross target volume(IGTV) and organ at risk(OAR) structure, lung, were added and set corresponding parameters.The upper value of planning target volume (PTV) was adjusted from 109% to 125%. The original training library was replaced with 73 local historical simultaneous integrated boosting plans, and statistical verification and outlier cleaning of the initial trained model were performed using Model Analytics software. Totally 10 cases not included in the model library were selected for independent verification, and automatic optimization result of the models before and after modifying were compared under the same beam condition. The following dosimetric parameters were compared after target dose normalization: conformal index (CI) of target volume, the mean doses, maximum doses and dose-volume parameters of OARs.Results:The " tail" of the PTV′s DVH and the " shoulder" and " tail" of the IGTV′s DVH of model M (local) validation plan (M (local)_P) performs higher than the original model HFHS (HFHS_P). The PTV_CI (1.07±0.13) of M local_P were significantly smaller than HFHS_P (1.25±0.24) ( Z=-2.497, P<0.05). Except for Heart_ D15 cm 3 and Heart_ Dmax, most of the M local_P dosimetric parameters of OARs were lower than HFHS_P, and the standard deviation was smaller. However, the difference of between two plans was no more than 3.06%. 10 HFHS_P plans don′t satisfy dose parameters requirement, two of which PTV_CI values are 1.52 and 1.74, far beyond the clinically acceptable range. Conclusions:Commercial model HFHS could be localized by replacing training library and adjusting parameters. Moreover, plans optimized by the modified model are local clinical acceptable in the aspects of target volume conformity and hotspots, and have a better performance in terms of OAR sparing and plan consistency.
