Oxidative stress can activate multiple inflammatory pathways， triggering and exacerbating psoriasis lesions. In traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， blood turbidity refers to a pathological condition in which harmful stimuli or unhealthy lifestyle habits lead to an accumulation of impurities in the blood， resulting in increased viscosity and impaired circulation. Based on the correlation between blood turbidity theory in TCM and the pathological changes of oxidative stress in modern medicine， this paper explored the TCM diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis， proposing that spleen deficiency with latent turbidity is the fundamental cause of the disease. The pathological progression of psoriasis was outlined as follows， spleen deficiency with latent turbidity→phlegm and blood stasis intertwining→internal generation of toxic pathogens. Targeting oxidative stress， the study suggests syndrome differentiation and treatment with angle medicine （角药， means three medicinals combination）. The treatment strategy divided into three stages. For early stage， strengthening the spleen and directing the turbid downward， emphasizing prevention before onset， with angle medicine of Huangqi （Astragali Radix） - Fuling （Poria） - Baizhu （Atractylodis macrocephalae rhizoma） to treat； for middle stage， resolving phlegm and dispersing blood stasis， preventing disease progression， if patient with more phlegm syndrome treated with angle medicine of Banxia （Pinelliae rhizoma） - Chenpi （Citri reticulatae pericarpium） - Zhexie （Alismatis rhizoma）， and if patient with more stasis syndrome treated with Zicao （Arnebiae Radix） - Jixueteng （Spatholobi caulis） - Shouwuteng （Polygonum multiflorum Thunb）； for late stage， resolving toxins and dispelling pathogens， balancing both attack and supplementation， with Quanxie （Scorpio） - Tufuling （Smilacis glabrae rhizoma） - Shudihuang （Rehmanniae radix praeparata） to treat.

Objective:To analyze the factors influencing the theoretical score of graduation examination of standardized residency training in a class-A tertiary general hospital in Shanghai from 2018 to 2021, and establish prediction models, and to provide a reference for further improving the quality of residency training.Methods:We collected the data of 556 residents who participated in the residency training graduation examination at the hospital from 2018 to 2021. Binary regression and logistic regression analyses were used to determine the association of residents' basic information, their routine assessment results at the bases, and the base performance assessment score (indicating the bases' training quality) with theoretical graduation examination results; and prediction models for the theoretical graduation examination score were established, using binary regression and logistic regression methods to construct model datasets. SPSS 26.0 was used for statistical analysis.Results:From 2018 to 2021, a total of 556 people participated in the residency training graduation examination at the hospital. The first-time pass rate of the first station theoretical examination station was 97.48% (542/556). Trainees graduating from double first-class schools had the highest first-time pass rate of 98.09% (359/366); doctoral students had the highest first-time pass rate of 98.59% (140/142); and residents of the two-year training program had the highest first-time pass rate of 98.34% (297/302). According to the binary regression analysis of categorical variables such as residents' basic information, the base level was associated with whether residents passed the theoretical examination ( P<0.05). According to the logistic regression analysis of residents' routine assessment scores and the base performance assessment score, the annual theoretical assessment score, the first-time theoretical score of the national medical licensing examination, the annual professional performance test score, and the base performance assessment score were key factors affecting the theoretical graduation examination score ( P<0.05). In the regression analysis associated with the theoretical graduation examination score, the annual professional performance test score showed the highest regression coefficient and the highest variance inflation factor, indicating strong multicollinearity. Therefore, the annual professional performance test score was important in predicting the theoretical score of the graduation examination. Conclusions:This study used binary regression and logistic regression models to analyze the possible factors affecting the theoretical graduation examination score and the degree of association, and also established two prediction models of the theoretical graduation examination score to predict trainees at risk. Through implementing the concept of hierarchical progression, adding personalized tutoring, realizing information management for residency training, and providing intelligent early intervention, the pass rate of residency training graduation examination is expected to be further improved, ultimately achieving the purpose of improving the quality of residency training.

Chemical pollution-induced damage to ecosystem function has been a global challenge.The latest"Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework"proposed reducing pollution risks to levels harmless to biodiversity and function,placing higher demands on chemical risk management at the ecosystem level.Conventional ecotoxicity tests have focused on single species,only to neglect genetic diversity protection and simplify species interactions.Here,we proposed using environmental RNA(eRNA)and metatranscriptomic analysis to establish a multi-species,multi-biological level chemical pollution ecological risk assessment approach in exposed communities.We reviewed the current status and trends of eRNA in chemical pollution risk assessment and proposed a strategy for bioeffect testing from molecules to communities based on eRNA,constructing ecological risk assessment models for different protection goals.Finally,we summarized the theoretical and technical challenges facing eRNA-based toxicity testing and outlined the future applications of eRNA in capturing real ecological effects of chemical pollution in the field.

Objective:To investigate the effects and potential mechanisms of galectin-3(Gal3)on mast cells activation and skin injury in a psoriatic murine model.Methods:Imiquimod was applied to the bare skin on back of SPF(Gal3+/+)mice and their matched(Gal3-/-)siblings respectively once daily for 5 d to establish a psoriatic mice model.The development and dynamics of skin le-sions were monitored and recorded,scored.with the psoriasis area and severity index(PASI).The expressions of il-1 and il-17 in the damaged skin were detected by real-time PCR to compare the severity of inflammation between Gal3+/+ mice and their Gal3-/-siblings.HE staining was used to observe the histopathological changes of skin.The difference in morphology and distribution of mast cells were examined by toluidine blue staining.Immunohistochemistry and image analysis techniques were improved to assay the expression and distribution of activated mast cells markers such as tryptase and 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT).Results:The typical psoriatic signs in-cluding erythema,scaling and infiltration were formed in mice after continuous administration of imiquimod in Gal3-/-mice,whereas Gal3+/+ mice just developed small scaling and mild infiltration.PASI score of Gal3-/-mice was significantly higher than that of Gal3+/+mice.In accordance,il-1 and il-17 were increased in the skin lesions of Gal3+/+ mice and Gal3-/-mice,but these inflammatory factors were more upregulated remarkably in the latter.Histopathology observation revealed that the epidermis of Gal3+/+ mice was slightly thickened,whereas thickened epidermis of Gal3-/-mice was more seriously and the rete ridges extended downward,with massive in-flammatory cells aggregation.Toluidine blue staining indicated that the mast cells were sparsely distributed and most of their structures were intact in Gal3+/+ mice,instead the mast cells of Gal3-/-mice were mostly in degranulation state with increased and distributed widely in skin.Immunohistochemistry staining revealed that tryptase and 5-HT,compared with those of Gal3+/+ mice,were increased obviously in the lesioned skin of Gal3-/-mice,most of them were concentrated in the epidermal in particular.Conclusion:The defi-ciency of Gal3 may result in over-activation and degranulation of mast cells at the skin in psoriatic mice model,which aggravates the occurrence of dermatitis inflammatory injury and disease progression in psoriasis,and Gal3 plays suppressive effects on mast cells acti-vation and degranulation at the skin lesions in this model.

It is the focus of higher education reform in the new era to comprehensively promote the con-struction of ideology and political education based on the characteristics of professional courses and en-hancing the effectiveness of ideology and political education.As an important basic course for medical students in colleges,molecular biology is closely related to basic medical disciplines and clinical medi-cine,and is a rapidly developing cutting-edge discipline,which has the natural advantage of serving as a carrier of ideology and political education.In this study,the innovative integration of project-based group study (PBGS) with the outcome-oriented behavior (OBE) of moral education is applied to the teaching of the ideology and politics of the medical molecular biology course,and the integration of the two has made a useful exploration to enhance the effectiveness of the ideology and politics teaching of the course.Taking students as the center,we have constructed an ideology and politics teaching system for medical molecular biology courses by combining on-line and off-line teaching activities through improving the teaching objectives,innovating the teaching design,digging into the case of ideology and politics,intro-ducing a variety of teaching methods,strengthening the management of teaching practice,and optimizing the evaluation mode.After two years of teaching practice,this model has effectively improved the teach-ing effect of the medical molecular biology course.The academic performance of the students in the prac-tice group has improved significantly,and the teachers and students have been given excellent evalua-tion.The results of the questionnaires before and after class showed that more than 80％ of the students believed that their horizons had been broadened and their knowledge had been increased through learn-ing.More than 50％ of the students believed that their learning ability and innovation consciousness had been improved;their scientific research quality had been improved;and their confidence in studying medicine had been strengthened.By strengthening the cultivation of students' scientific research and in-novation capabilities,we guided students to participate in subject competitions and won many national a-wards.Throughout the teaching process,we aim to expand the breadth and depth of ideology and political education,cultivate scientific spirits,innovation ability,moral cultivation,and humanistic qualities.In sum,our work provides experiences for the cultivation of high-quality medical talents.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for late-onset hemorrhagic cystitis(LOHC)after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT),the risk factors for the progression of LOHC to severe LOHC,and the effect of LOHC on survival.Methods:The clinical data of 300 patients who underwent allo-HSCT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The relevant clinical parameters that may affect the occurance of LOHC after allo-HSCT were selected for univariate and multivariate analysis.Then,the differences in overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)between different groups were analyzed.Results:The results of multivariate analysis showed that the independent risk factors for LOHC after allo-HSCT were as follows:age≤45 years old(P=0.039),intensified conditioning regimen with fludarabine/cladribine and cytarabine(P=0.002),albumin ≤ 30 g/L on d30 after transplantation(P=0.007),CMV-DNA positive(P=0.028),fungal infection before transplantation(P=0.026),and the occurrence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD(P=0.006).In the transplant patients who have already developed LOHC,the occurance of LOHC within 32 days after transplantation(P=0.008)and albumin ≤ 30 g/L on d30 after transplantation(P=0.032)were independent risk factors for the progression to severe LOHC.The OS rate of patients with severe LOHC was significantly lower than that of patients without LOHC(P=0.041).Conclusion:For the patients aged ≤ 45 years old and with intensified conditioning regimen,it is necessary to be vigilant about the occurrence of LOHC;For the patients with earlier occurrence of LOHC,it is necessary to be vigilant that it develops into severe LOHC.Early prevention and treatment of LOHC are essential.Regular monitoring of CMV-DNA and albumin levels,highly effective antiviral and antifungal therapies,and prevention of aGVHD are effective measures to prevent the occurrence and development of LOHC.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)infection after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)and its impact on survival.Methods:The clinical data of 347 patients who underwent their first allo-HSCT in our hospital from January 2014 to June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into EBV(n=114)and Non-EBV(n=233)groups according to whether they were infected with EBV.The incidence of EBV infection after allo-HSCT was calculated,and the risk factors of EBV infection were analyzed.Results:A total of 114(32.8％)patients presented EBV infection(all peripheral blood EBV-DNA were positive).EBV infection occurred in 88 patients within 100 days after transplantation,which accounted for 77.2％of all patients with EBV infection.5 cases(1.44％)were confirmed as post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder(PTLD).The median onset time of patients was 57(7-486)days after transplantation.Multivariate analysis showed that the use of ATG/ATG-F,occurrence of CMV viremia,and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD were risk factors for EBV infection.Furthermore,compared to BUCY,the use of intensified preconditioning regimens containing FA/CA was significantly increased the risk of EBV infection.Conclusion:EBV infection is a common complication after allo-HSCT.Intensified preconditioning regimens,use of ATG/ATG-F,CMV viremia and grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ aGVHD increase the risk of EBV infection after allo-HSCT.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of primary poor graft function (PGF) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myeloid malignancies and the impact of primary PGF on survival. Methods:The clinical data of 146 patients with myeloid malignancies who underwent allo-HSCT in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively studied. Some relevant clinical parameters which may affect the development of primary PGF after allo-HSCT were selected for univariate and multivariate analysis,as well as performed survival analysis. Results:A total of 9 patients (6.16％) were diagnosed with primary PGF,and their medium age was 37(28-53) years old. Among them,1 case underwent matched sibling donor HSCT,1 case underwent matched unrelated donor HSCT,and 7 cases underwent HLA-haploidentical related donor HSCT. Moreover,5 cases were diagnosed as cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection,and 3 cases as Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that CD34+cell dose<5×106/kg and pre-transplant C-reactive protein (CRP)>10 mg/L were independent risk factors for occurrence of the primary PGF after allo-HSCT in patients with myeloid malignancies. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate of primary PGF group was 52.5％,which was significantly lower than 82.8％ of good graft function group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Making sure pre-transplant CRP≤10 mg/L and CD34+cell dose ≥5×106/kg in the graft may have an effect on preventing the occurrence of primary PGF after allo-HSCT. The occurrence of primary PGF may affect the OS rate of transplant patients,and early prevention and treatment are required.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and pathological characteristics, treatment methods, and prognosis of papillary renal neoplasm with reverse polarity (PRNRP).Methods:The clinical and pathological data of six pathologically confirmed PRNRP patients admitted to Renji Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from August 2022 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, three were male and three were female, with an average age of (55.3±10.5) years old. All six cases were incidentally discovered during health examinations. Preoperative contrast-enhanced CT scans showed tumors with cortical phase manifestations of uneven enhancement, avascularity, and indistinct borders, with CT values of (85.6±18.7) HU. In the corticomedullary phase, the CT values showed mild elevation, with an average of (94.3±4.7) HU. In the delayed phase, the tumor boundaries were clear, and the enhancement degree was significantly lower than that of the surrounding renal cortex and medulla, with a tumor CT value of (86.3±11.9) HU. The pseudocapsule of the tumor was not clearly displayed on contrast-enhanced CT scans. All cases underwent partial nephrectomy, including two cases of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and four cases of laparoscopic partial nephrectomy.Results:Postoperative pathological measurements revealed a maximum tumor diameter ranging from 6 to 15 mm, with an average diameter of (11.0±3.5) mm. All six cases were classified as pT 1aN 0M 0 stage. Microscopically, the tumors exhibited branching papillary structures with eosinophilic cytoplasm, and the tumor cells displayed low-grade nuclei located at the top of the cytoplasm and away from the basal membrane. Immunohistochemical analysis showed diffuse strong positivity for GATA3 and CK7, while CA-Ⅸ expression was negative. The median follow-up time after surgery was 10(9, 13) months, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis was observed. Conclusions:PRNRP is a rare, low-grade malignant papillary renal tumor. Contrast-enhanced CT scan has characteristic features of avascularity. Pathological morphological features are low-grade nuclei located at the top of the cytoplasm and far away from the basal membrane, forming a "reverse polarity". The immunophenotype shows positive expression of GATA3 and CK7. Partial nephrectomy is the recommended treatment approach, and the postoperative prognosis is favorable.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of sirolimus in the treatment of diazoxide unresponsive congenital hyperinsulinism(CHI) and summarize the single-center experience.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 5 cases of CHI treated with sirolimus after ineffective treatment with diazoxide, admitted to the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to December 2022. The efficacy and safety of sirolimus in the treatment of CHI were evaluated.Results:The study included 5 patients, 3 males and 2 females. The age of onset ranged from 1 to 90 days. Initial symptoms included poor mental state(2/5) and convulsions(3/5). Blood glucose levels were 1.1 to 2.3 mmol/L, and insulin levels ranged from 13.52 to 70.53 μIU/mL. Two cases were classified as diffuse type, and the histological type of 3 cases was unknown. Genetic testing confirmed the diagnosis, with whole-exome sequencing revealing an unreported novel mutation in 1 case(ABCC8 exon 25_28del). Of the five patients, three patients were treated with sirolimus after diazoxide and octreotide failed, one patient was treated after unresponsive diazoxide, and the other one was treated after diazoxide, octreotide, and even near-total pancreatectomy failed. The onset age of sirolimus therapy ranged from 1 to 20 months. The maximum dosage of sirolimus was 1.2-3.2 mg·m -2·d -1, and the duration of medication ranged from 2 to 12 months. One patient was fully responsive to sirolimus, and the other four patients were partially responsive. All patients achieved euglycemia with sirolimus alone or in combination with standard CHI treatment. During follow-up, non-infectious diarrhea, elevated carcinoembryonic antigen, elevated triglycerides, and elevated liver enzymes were observed. Conclusion:This study indicates that sirolimus has a certain degree of efficacy in CHI patients for whom diazoxide treatment is ineffective. However, the long-term efficacy and safety warrant further multicenter trials.
