Hepatic fibrosis is a complex dynamic process caused by multiple chronic pathogenic factors， characterized by excessive accumulation of liver extracellular matrix and abnormal liver structure and function. If anti-fibrotic treatment is not performed in time， it can progress to liver cirrhosis and even liver cancer. Hepatic fibrosis has a complex pathogenesis， and previous studies mainly focused on the activation of hepatic stellate cells. Recent studies have shown that myeloid cells have the potential of multi-directional differentiation and can also participate in the development and progression of hepatic fibrosis. This article systematically reviews the role and regulatory mechanism of myeloid cells in hepatic fibrosis， in order to provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and targeted therapy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of mitochondrial calcium uniporter （MCU） on the cytoskeleton of pancreatic ductal epithelial cells in a mouse model of acute pancreatitis （AP） induced by caerulein （CAE）， to analyze the role of MCU in the development of AP， and to provide a theoretical basis for clinical treatment. MethodsIn the in vivo experiment， wild-type male C57BL6/J mice， aged 4 weeks， were randomly divided into control group and AP group， with 6 mice in each group. The mice in the AP group were given intraperitoneal injection of CAE to establish a model of AP， and those in the control group were given intraperitoneal injection of an equal volume of normal saline. Serum and pancreatic tissue samples were collected after 24 hours of modeling. HE staining was used to observe pancreatic histopathological changes； Western Blot was used to measure the expression levels of MCU， glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4）， and acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4 （ASCL4）； kits were used to measure the serum level of amylase. In the in vitro experiment， the human pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line HPDE6-C7 was co-cultured with CAE for 24 hours to establish an in vitro AP model， and the cells were divided into control group， CAE group， RR （an MCU activity inhibitor） group， CAE+RR group， Fer-1 （an ferroptosis inhibitor） group， CAE+Fer-1 group， Erastin （an ferroptosis inducer） group， and CAE+Erastin group. CCK-8 assay was used to observe the influence of different agents on cell viability； Western Blot was used to measure the expression levels of MCU， GPX4， and ASCL4； immunofluorescence assay was used to measure reactive oxygen species （ROS）， actin cytoskeleton， and monolayer permeability； kits were used to measure the concentrations of malondialdehyde （MDA）， glutathione （GSH）， Fe²⁺， and total iron. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for comparison between two groups. ResultsIn the in vivo experiment， compared with the control group， the AP group had significant increases in pancreatic histopathological score， the serum level of amylase， and the expression levels of MCU and ASCL4， as well as a significant reduction in the expression of GPX4 （all P<0.05）. In the in vitro experiment， compared with the control group， the CAE group had significant increases in the expression levels of MCU and ASCL4， a significant reduction in the expression of GPX4， and significant increases in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability， as well as a significant reduction in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with the presence of actin cytoskeleton disruption. Compared with the CAE group， the CAE+RR group had a significant increase in the expression level of GPX4， a significant reduction in the expression level of ASCL4， and significant reductions in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability and a significant increase in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with alleviation of actin cytoskeleton disruption. Compared with the CAE group， the CAE+Fer-1 group had significant reductions in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability and a significant increase in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with alleviation of actin cytoskeleton disruption. Compared with the CAE group， the CAE+Erastin group had significant increases in the concentrations of Fe²⁺， total iron， and MDA， the green fluorescence intensity of ROS， and monolayer permeability and a significant reduction in the concentration of GSH （all P<0.05）， with aggravation of actin cytoskeleton disruption. ConclusionDuring the onset of AP， MCU mediates oxidative stress-induced ferroptosis and leads to the disruption of the pancreatic ductal epithelial barrier， which may be one of the possible pathogeneses of AP.

Objective:To investigate the current status of occupational stress among electronic manufacturing workers in Qingdao and analyze its effect on depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms.Methods:From July to September 2022, a cluster random sampling method was employed to select frontline workers from 14 electronic manufacturing enterprises in Qingdao as the study subjects. A total of 1134 questionnaires were distributed, with 1000 valid questionnaires collected, yielding an effective response rate of 88.18%. The Core Occupational Stress Scale (COSS), the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) were adopted to assess occupational stress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms, respectively. Binary logistic regression was employed to analyze influencing factors of occupational stress and its effects on depressive and anxiety symptoms.Results:The detection rates of occupational stress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms were 15.1% (15/1000), 7.9% (79/1000), and 13.8% (138/1000), respectively. The influencing factor analysis of occupational stress revealed that female gender ( OR=0.621, 95% CI: 0.434-0.890) and weekly working hours of 45-48 hours ( OR=0.537, 95% CI: 0.309-0.935) were protective factors ( P<0.05), while weekly working hours ≥55 hours ( OR=2.176, 95% CI: 1.290-3.670) and shift work ( OR=2.038, 95% CI: 1.412-2.940) were risk factors ( P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that the COSS score was positively related with the PHQ-9 score and the GAD-7 score ( rs=0.438, 0.289, P<0.01). Workers judged with occupational stress had 3.596 times (95% CI: 2.181-5.931, P<0.001) and 3.121 times (95% CI: 2.046-4.761, P<0.001) higher risks of detecting depressive and anxiety symptoms compared to those without occupational stress. Conclusion:Electronic manufacturing workers in Qingdao experience a certain level of occupational stress, which may increase the risk of developing depressive and anxiety symptoms. Enterprises should implement appropriate interventions to promote workers' mental health.

Objective To observe the value of B1 corrected T1 mapping for distinguishing pathological types and differentiation degrees of lung cancers.Methods A total of 74 lesions in 65 patients with lung cancers were prospectively enrolled,including 49 poorly differentiated lesions and 25 moderately or well differentiated ones,i.e.42 adenocarcinomas,14 squamous cell carcinomas and 18 small cell lung cancers(all poorly differentiated).B1 corrected T1 mapping was performed,ROI(ROI1 and ROI2)were delineated using 2 methods,and T1 values of different pathological types and differentiation degrees lung cancers were compared.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn,and the areas under the curve(AUC)were calculated.Results Significant differences of T1 values were found among different pathological types of lung cancer(all P＜0.05),as well as between small cell lung cancer and the rest 2 types of lung cancer(both P＜0.05).There were significant differences of T1 values between poorly differentiated and moderately well differentiated lung cancer(squamous cell carcinoma+adenocarcinoma)(both P＜0.05).Taken ROI1 T1 value=1 524.21 ms as the cut-off value,the AUC of T1 value for distinguishing poorly differentiated and moderately well differentiated lung cancer(squamous cell carcinoma+adenocarcinoma)was 0.698,with sensitivity of 64.50％and specificity of 76.00％.Taken ROI2 T1 value=1 630.68 ms as the cut-off value,the AUC of T1 value was 0.676,with sensitivity of 54.80％and specificity of 80.00％.Conclusion B1 corrected T1 mapping was helpful for distinguishing pathological types and differentiation degrees of lung cancers.

Objective:To compare the importance of 11 common influencing factors for fall and fall-induced injury reported previously in the elderly.Methods:The data were collected from the follow-up of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) between 2011 and 2018. Binary logistic regression model and negative binomial regression model were used to test the significance of correlations between 11 factors and the incidence of fall and fall-induced injury during this period. The absolute value of the β^ was used to evaluate importance of 11 influencing factors. Results:This study included 9 279, 6 153, 4 142, 4 148, and 3 583 old persons. The cumulative incidence rates of fall in the 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th, 5 th, and 7 th years were 19.4% (95% CI: 18.6%-20.2%), 22.1% (95% CI: 21.0%-23.1%), 31.9% (95% CI: 30.4%-33.3%), 35.1% (95% CI: 33.6%-36.5%), and 43.2% (95% CI: 41.6%-44.8%), respectively. The cumulative incidence rates of fall-induced injury were 8.4% (95% CI: 7.8%-8.9%), 9.4% (95% CI: 8.7%-10.1%), 15.1% (95% CI: 14.0%-16.2%), 16.2% (95% CI: 15.1%-17.3%), and 22.0% (95% CI: 20.6%-23.3%). The results of multivariate logistic regression and negative binomial regression analyses showed that in the 11 factors, only gender, history of fall, and depressive symptoms were identified as common risk factors for fall and fall-induced injury in the elderly in all the follow up visits (all P<0.05); the history of fall had the highest absolute value of β^ in all models, while gender ranked second except for the 5-year fall-induced injury model. Conclusions:Of the 11 influencing factors for fall and fall-induced injury reported by previous literature, only gender, history of falls, and depressive symptoms were identified as common risk factors for fall and fall-induced injury in the eldely in the 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th, 5 th, and 7 th years follow-up visits. History of fall and gender were important influencing factors for fall and fall-induced injury in the elderly.

Objective To observe the value of 18F-FDG PET/CT semi-quantitative parameters for predicting spread through air spaces(STAS)of clinical stage Ⅰa—Ⅲa lung adenocarcinoma.Methods Data of 85 patients with clinical stage Ⅰa—Ⅲ a lung adenocarcinoma who underwent preoperative 18F-FDG PET/CT were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into positive group(n=23)or negative group(n=62)according to whether pathology showed STAS or not.Clinical and PET/CT data were compared between groups,and logistic analysis was performed to explore the efficacy of each parameter for predicting STAS.Results Significant differences of gender,carcinoma embryonic antigen,clinical stage,pathological grade,micropapillary growth and proportion were found between groups(all P＜0.05).The maximum,the mean,the peak standard uptake value(SUVmax,SUVmean,SUVpeak),as well as the maximum,the mean and the peak standard uptake value normalized by lean body mass(SULmax,SULmean,SULpeak),also the total lesion glycolysis(TLG)in positive group were all significantly higher than those in negative group(all P＜0.05).Patients'gender,proportion of micropapillary growth,SUVmax and SULmax were all independent risk factors of STAS of clinical stage Ⅰa—Ⅲa lung adenocarcinoma.The area under the curve(AUC)of the above parameters for predicting STAS was 0.666,0.912,0.839 and 0.842,respectively,and of the combination was 0.957.Conclusion 18 F-FDG PET/CT semi-quantitative parameters SUVmax and SULmax were helpful for predicting STAS of clinical stage Ⅰa—Ⅲ a lung adenocarcinoma,and further combination of gender and proportion of micropapillary growth could improve diagnostic efficacy.

Objective To compare the value of stack-of-stars-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination(Star-VIBE)and T1-volumetric interpolated breath-hold examination(T1-VIBE)MRI for displaying peripheral lung cancer.Methods Fifty-two patients with 56 peripheral lung cancer were prospectively enrolled,and chest Star-VIBE and T1-VIBE MRI were acquired.The morphological features were observed,and the subjective scores were recorded.The maximum diameter,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of lesions were measured based on Star-VIBE and T1-VIBE MRI,respectively.Taken CT as the references,the value of Star-VIBE and T1-VIBE MRI for displaying peripheral lung cancer were compared.Results Star-VIBE MRI had higher scores for displaying spiculation sign,lobulation sign,pleural depression sign and halo sign than T1-VIBE(both P＜0.05).CNR and SNR of Star-VIBE MRI were significantly higher than those of T1-VIBE(both P＜0.001).No significant difference of the maximum diameter of lesions measured based on Star-VIBE and T1-VIBE MRI compared with CT was found,nor between Star-VIBE and T1-VIBE MRI(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Star-VIBE MRI had better value for displaying peripheral lung cancer than T1-VIBE.
