ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the protective effect of Huamoyan granules on knee osteoarthritis （KOA） and explore whether its protective effect is oriented toward an anti-inflammatory direction by regulation of macrophage polarization， which can effectively inhibit the progression of pathological inflammatory response， reduce the release of inflammatory pain mediators， and downregulate the protein expression level of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 （TRPV1）， so as to provide experimental evidence for its clinical application and investigate its action mechanism. MethodsAfter adaptive feeding， Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into six groups： sham group， model group， celecoxib group， and high， medium， and low-dose synovitis granule groups （9.6， 4.8， 2.4 g·kg^-1）. The administration dose of celecoxib capsules was 20 mg·kg^-1. There were 10 rats in the sham group and 12 rats in the model group and each administration group. A KOA animal model was established by means of intra-articular injection of sodium iodoacetate into the knee joint. From the 10^th day of the experiment， each administration group was given intragastric administration at a dose of 10 mL·kg^-1 for 4 weeks. General conditions of rats in each group were assessed daily. The pressure pain threshold （PPT） to mechanical stimulation and joint diameter were recorded. X-ray examination was performed on the right knee joints of rats for imaging analysis. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was performed to detect the tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， serum interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and other pro-inflammatory cytokines in rat serum samples， as well as the expression levels of neurogenic inflammatory mediators such as nerve growth factor （NGF） and calcitonin gene-related peptide （CGRP）. Histopathological changes in the knee joint synovial tissues were examined by hematoxylineosin （HE） staining. Safranin O-fast green staining was performed to observe and evaluate the degree of knee cartilage lesions. Western blot was employed to quantitatively analyze TRPV1， p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （p38 MAPK）， and phosphorylated （p）-p38 MAPK in rat knee synovial tissues. Immunofluorescence （IF） was used to measure and assess M1/M2 macrophage polarization. ResultsCompared with those in the sham group， the circumference and joint diameter of the right knee were markedly enlarged in the model group （P<0.01）， while PPTs of rats showed a significant reduction （P<0.01）. The contents of IL-1β， TNF-α， CGRP， and NGF in rats' serum were significantly elevated （P<0.01）， and the synovial Krenn score was increased （P<0.01）. The Mankin score of cartilage tissue was increased （P<0.01）， and the protein expressions of TRPV1 and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK were significantly upregulated （P<0.01）. The experimental intervention significantly reduced the proportion of pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages in the total macrophage population （P<0.01）， and the percentage of M2 macrophages was decreased （P<0.01）. The M1/M2 macrophage ratio was significantly elevated （P<0.01）. Knee joint diameters of all dose groups of Huamoyan granules and the celecoxib group were reduced （P<0.01） compared with those of the model group， and the PPT recovery speeds in the high and medium-dose groups of Huamoyan granules were more obvious （P<0.05）. The contents of IL-1β， CGRP， and NGF in the rats' serum in all administration groups were significantly reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the content of TNF-α in rats' serum was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. All dose groups of Huamoyan granules demonstrated significant reductions in both synovial Krenn score （P<0.05， P<0.01） and protein expression of TRPV1 and p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK in rats' synovial tissues （P<0.01）. The percentage of M1 macrophages in the synovial tissues of the celecoxib group and all dose groups of Huamoyan granules was decreased （P<0.01）. The percentage of M2 macrophages was increased （P<0.05）， and the M1/M2 ratio was decreased （P<0.01）. ConclusionHuamoyan granules can alleviate the inflammatory response of KOA， reduce the release of inflammatory pain mediators， and downregulate TRPV1 protein expression by regulating macrophage polarization. Its mechanism may be related to the TRPV1/p38 MAPK signaling pathway， thereby achieving the effect of improving peripheral pain hypersensitivity in KOA.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of the artery-first approach pancreaticoduo-denectomy (PD) combined with portal vein/superior mesenteric vein (PV/SMV) resection and reconstruction for pancreatic head malignancies.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 322 patients who underwent PD with PV/SMV resection and reconstruction at the Hepatobiliary Pancreatic Surgery Department of the First Hospital Affiliated to Naval Medical University between January 2016 and December 2022. Patients were divided into the artery-first approach PD group (AFA-PD group, n=165) and standard PD group (SPD group, n=157) based on surgical approach. Baseline characteristics, surgical outcomes, postoperative outcomes, pathological results and survival data were compared between two groups. Results:Compared to the SPD group, the AFA-PD group exhibited significantly reduced intraoperative blood loss (500 ml vs 600 ml), lower rates of obvious intraoperative blood loss (≥1 000 ml: 25.45% vs 40.13%), and decreased transfusion requirements (26.67% vs 52.87%). Postoperatively, the AFA-PD group demonstrated lower incidence of grade B/C pancreatic fistula (10.30% vs 19.75%) and higher textbook outcome achievement (78.79% vs 66.24%). Pathologically, the AFA-PD group achieved superior lymph node yield (20 nodes vs 18 nodes) and higher R 0 resection rates (79.39% vs 64.33%), particularly at the posterior pancreatic margin (96.97% vs 91.72%, P=0.040), SMA margin (92.07% vs 82.17%), and SMV margin (88.48% vs 78.98%). Multivariate logistic regression identified arterial invasion >180°, venous invasion >180°, lymph node metastasis, and the artery-first approach as independent predictors of R 0 resection. The AFA-PD group showed prolonged median survival (19.17 month vs 15.73 month). All aforementioned differences were statistically significant (all P value <0.05). Conclusions:The artery-first approach PD combined with PV/SMV resection and reconstruction is safe and effective for pancreatic head malignancies, significantly improving R 0 resection rates and patients' survival outcomes.

Objective:To summarize the best available evidence for exercise interventions in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) .Methods:The PIPOST model from the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Centre for Evidence-Based Healthcare in Australia was used to construct the evidence-based nursing question.

Given that ovarian stimulation is vital for assisted reproductive technology (ART) and results in elevated serum estrogen levels, exploring the impact of elevated estrogen exposure on oocytes and embryos is necessary. We investigated the effects of various ovarian stimulation treatments on oocyte and embryo morphology and gene expression using a mouse model and estrogen-treated mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). Female C57BL/6J mice were subjected to two types of conventional ovarian stimulation and ovarian hyperstimulation; mice treated with only normal saline served as controls. Hyperstimulation resulted in high serum estrogen levels, enlarged ovaries, an increased number of aberrant oocytes, and decreased embryo formation. The messenger RNA (mRNA)‍-sequencing of oocytes revealed the dysregulated expression of lysine-specific demethylase 6b (Kdm6b), which may be a key factor indicating hyperstimulation-induced aberrant oocytes and embryos. In vitro, Kdm6b expression was downregulated in mESCs treated with high-dose estrogen; treatment with an estrogen receptor antagonist could reverse this downregulated expression level. Furthermore, treatment with high-dose estrogen resulted in the upregulated expression of histone H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) and phosphorylated H2A histone family member X (γ-H2AX). Notably, knockdown of Kdm6b and high estrogen levels hindered the formation of embryoid bodies, with a concomitant increase in the expression of H3K27me3 and γ-H2AX. Collectively, our findings revealed that hyperstimulation-induced high-dose estrogen could impair the demethylation of H3K27me3 by reducing Kdm6b expression. Accordingly, Kdm6b could be a promising marker for clinically predicting ART outcomes in patients with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.

As the simplest label-free single-molecule analytical technique in solution,nanopore technology has been widely used in rapid sequencing of protein and nucleic acid,and single-molecule sensing.However,the main challenge is to get this technology out of the lab and achieve automation,miniaturization as well as rapid analysis at high throughput.In this work,a new microfluidic tubing protein nanopore analysis system was designed and constructed by combining microfluidic and nanopore nanofluidic analysis techniques.An arcuate lipid bilayer was formed in the microfluidic device through lipid monolayer at the oil/water interface by developed aperture processing technology at 10 μm level.The arcuate lipid bilayer with the life span of more than 98 h had high biomimetic fluidity and biological activity by which protein channel could be produced and sealed at 18 GΩ level without leakage.When applied+40 mV potential,relative standard deviation of single proteinα-hemolysin mutant(α-HL(M113F/K147N))channel current was less than 0.16 pA(n=3)in 10 mmol/L Tris-HCl(pH 7.4)buffer containing 1 mol/L NaCl.Single-molecule detection for aptamer and its host-guest interactions with biotin in protein channel demonstrated that this microfluidic tube protein nanopore sensor could well work with high sensitivity without the need of anti-vibration table and shielding cage.

Objective To sort out the main subjects of China's medical insurance fund supervision and their change process in different periods,to provide a basis for deepening the reform of the medical insurance fund regulation sys-tem.Methods Social network analysis method is used to quantify the national-level policies and tap the core subjects of China's medical insurance fund supervision.Results A total of 63 policies were included,and 195 regulatory sub-ject codes were obtained.The main regulatory subjects during the embryonic period of medical insurance fund super-vision were mainly insurance operators and relied on medical insurance fund supervision organizations.The main regu-latory subjects during the exploration period were mainly the insurance administration and the insurance agency and began to pay attention to social participation.The main regulatory subjects in the development period were mainly the Healthcare Security Administration and its handling agencies,with the collaboration of relevant departments.The participation of social subjects is obvious,and third-party professional institutions become important subjects.Con-clusion The supervisory subjects of China's medical insurance fund have embodied the logic of change from decen-tralization of responsibilities to centralized and unified functions,from multi-regulation to integrated multi-sectoral linkage,and from government-led to the introduction of social and market forces.The participation of multiple sub-jects is the development trend of medical insurance fund supervision in the future,and the capacity of collaborative governance of medical insurance fund supervision should be continuously improved.

Digital supervision of the medical insurance fund is the process of using digital information technology to map real-world medical scenarios and activities into the digital world,in which the medical insurance fund is super-vised and managed.The objectives of digital supervision include not only ensuring the safe and rational use of the medical insurance fund,but also promoting the quality of medical services,safeguarding the public's rights and interests,ensuring the long-term sustainability of the medical insurance system,and promoting social equity and stability at multiple levels.Based on the theory of Public Value theory,it interprets and explores the model and critical path of digital supervision of China's medical insurance fund from the three dimensions of Public Value Proposition,Autho-rizing Environment,and Operational Capacity,which concludes that the key to digital supervision of medical insurance funds lies in the search for consistency and balance between the three of real-world value objectives.Digital regulation should be oriented towards public value creation and return to value rationality;strengthen institutional design and build a pluralistic governance pattern for digital regulation;and strengthen core capacity building to make up for the shortcomings of digital regulatory capacity.The public value of digital supervision should be created from three as-pects:concept optimization,support and guarantee,and capacity improvement.The public value of digital supervision should be created from three aspects:concept optimization,support and guarantee,and capacity improvement.

Objective To understand the public's willingness to participate in the supervision of medical insurance funds and their influencing factors,and to provide suggestions and references for creating a good atmosphere for the whole society to consciously pay attention to and maintain the safety of medical insurance funds.Methods Using a combination of non-proportional and convenience sampling with stratified sampling,a total of 1661 samples were collected from 28 provinces across China,and a chi-square test and binary logistic regression were used to investi-gate the factors affecting the public's willingness to participate in the supervision of medical insurance funds.Results There are 1661 valid questionnaires returned and a total of 457(27.51%)members of the public are willing to participate in supervision.The educational level in the ability dimension was the hindering factor of the public's supervision willingness(P＜0.001).Evaluation of the nature of medical insurance fraud and evaluation of the overall harm caused by medical insurance fraud in the dimension of effort,whether family members have medical insurance workers and whether they have the experience of obtaining medical assistance in the dimension of opportunity was the promoting factor of public supervised willingness(P＜0.05).Conclusion The public's willingness to participate in the supervision of medical insurance funds needs to be improved.It can focus on enhancing the public's willingness to supervise medical insurance funds from the dimensions of ability,effort and opportunity,deepen the public's aware-ness of medical insurance fraud,and continuously improve the public's enthusiasm to crack down on medical insurance fraud,and reduce and eliminate insurance fraud.
