BACKGROUND:Promoting skin wound healing is a huge challenge facing global public health.To promote faster and higher-quality wound healing,it is necessary to explore more advantageous dressings to address this problem.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the hemostatic properties of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and its effect on skin wound healing.METHODS:(1)Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was prepared,and the differences in microscopic morphology and main components between it and acellular dermal matrix were analyzed.(2)Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel were used to cover the femoral artery puncture site of rats,and the bleeding quality and coagulation time were recorded.Acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel were mixed with rat anticoagulated blood,and the coagulation index within 30 minutes was detected.(3)A full-thickness skin defect model with a diameter of 12 mm was made on the back of 18 SD rats,and they were randomly divided into 3 groups,with 6 rats in each group:the model group used PBS to clean the wound,and the control group and the experimental group used chitosan hydrogel and acellular dermal matrix hydrogel to cover the wound,respectively.The hydrogel dressing was changed every day,and the treatment was continued for 14 days,and the wound healing was observed.On day 3 after modeling,immunofluorescence staining of inducible nitric oxide synthase(M1 macrophages)and CD206(M2 macrophages)was performed on the wound surface.On day 14 after modeling,hematoxylin-eosin staining,Masson staining,and CD31 immunohistochemical staining were performed on the wound surface.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the acellular dermal matrix hydrogel had a porous structure,and the Fourier transform infrared spectrum showed that it had the same main components as the acellular dermal matrix.(2)Both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel had obvious hemostatic ability in vivo.In the in vitro coagulation experiments,the coagulation index of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was significantly higher than that of chitosan hydrogel.(3)In the rat skin full-thickness defect model,both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel could improve the wound healing rate.Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining results showed that acellular dermal matrix hydrogel could reduce the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the center of the wound.Both acellular dermal matrix hydrogel and chitosan hydrogel could decrease scar width and increase collagen deposition rate.CD31 immunohistochemical staining results showed that both hydrogels could promote angiogenesis in the wound site.Immunofluorescence staining results showed that both hydrogels could reduce the proportion of M1 macrophages and increase the proportion of M2 macrophages,and the effect of acellular dermal matrix hydrogel was stronger than that of chitosan hydrogel.(4)The results show that the acellular dermal matrix hydrogel has good hemostatic properties and the ability to promote wound healing.

BACKGROUND:Inter-limb asymmetry is a common phenomenon observed during human growth and development.Prolonged specialized training can lead to specific adaptations in inter-limb asymmetry among athletes.OBJECTIVE:To review the formation causes,manifestations,and impacts of inter-limb asymmetry on sports performance,and provide an overview of the relevant assessment methods and intervention strategies.METHODS:A literature search was conducted in the CNKI,WanFang,PubMed,and Web of Science databases from their inception to September 2024.The search terms included"asymmetry,asymmetries,asymmetric,asymmetrical,imbalance,strength,power,force,jump,sprint,athletic performance,anthropometry,injury"in English and Chinese.After excluding duplicate publications,irrelevant content,and conference papers,a total of 131 articles were finally included for analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Inter-limb asymmetry can be influenced by various factors including genetics,task demands,training regimens,injuries,fatigue,and limb preference.These factors lead to being primarily manifested in anatomical structure,strength performance,and task-specific asymmetry.(2)An increase in inter-limb asymmetry can result in impaired performance in bilateral in-phase symmetric movements.However,the relationship between increased inter-limb asymmetry and bilateral out-of-phase symmetric movements remains unclear and requires further investigation.(3)Training interventions have been shown to effectively mitigate inter-limb asymmetry,with unilateral training demonstrating superior outcomes compared with bilateral training.The choice of training methods and content should be tailored to meet the specific demands of the sport.(4)To further clarify the relationship between inter-limb asymmetry and athletic performance,it is recommended that future research adopt the concept of"task specificity"in inter-limb asymmetry.This includes standardizing study designs,selecting sensitive testing methods and indicators,unifying calculation methods to provide more high-quality evidence,and establishing categorized warning threshold standards for inter-limb asymmetry in different sports.

Objective To explore the relationship between circadian rhythm genes and the occurrence, development, prognosis, and tumor microenvironment (TME) of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas data were used to evaluate the expression, copy number variation, and somatic mutation frequency of circadian gene sets in LUAD. Gene ontology, Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes, and gene set enrichment analysis were used to explore the potential mechanisms by which circadian rhythm genes affected LUAD progression. Cox regression, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, support vector machine recursive feature elimination, and random forest screened circadian genes and established prognostic models, and on this basis constructed nomogram to predict patients’ 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates. Kaplan-Meier survival curves, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and time-dependent ROC curves were drawn to evaluate the predictive ability of the model, and the external dataset of GEO further verified the prognostic value of the prediction model. In addition, we evaluated the association of the prognostic model with immune cells and immune checkpoint genes. Single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis was used to explore the molecular characteristics between prognostically relevant circadian genes and different immune cell populations in TME. Results Differentially expressed circadian rhythm genes were mainly enriched in biological processes related to cGMP-PKG signaling pathway, lipid and atherosclerosis, and JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Seven circadian rhythm genes: LGR4, CDK1, KLF10, ARNTL2, RORA, NPAS2, PTGDS were screened out, and a RiskScore model was established. According to the median RiskScore, samples were divided into a high-risk group and a low-risk group. Compared with patients in the low-risk group, patients in the high-risk group showed a poorer prognosis (P<0.001). Immunological characterization analysis showed that there were differences in the infiltration of multiple immune cells between the low-risk group and high-risk group. Most immune checkpoint genes had higher expression levels in the high-risk group than those in the low-risk group, and RiskScore was positively correlated with the expression of CD276, TNFSF4, PDCD1LG2, CD274, and TNFRSF9, and negatively correlated with the expression of CD40LG and TNFSF15. The scRNA-seq analysis showed that RORA and KLF10 were mainly expressed in natural killer cells. Conclusion The prognostic model based on seven feature circadian rhythm genes has certain predictive value for predicting survival of LUAD patients. Dysregulated expression of circadian genes may regulate the occurrence, progression as well as prognosis of LUAD through affecting TME, which provides a possible direction for finding potential strategies for treating LUAD from the perspective of mechanism by which circadian disorder affects immune cells.

Prescription optimization is a crucial aspect in the study of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） compounds. In recent years， the introduction of mathematical methods， data mining techniques， and artificial neural networks has provided new tools for elucidating the compatibility rules of TCM compounds. The study of TCM compounds involves numerous variables， including the proportions of different herbs， the specific extraction parts of each ingredient， and the interactions among multiple components. These factors together create a complex nonlinear dose-effect relationship. In this context， it is essential to identify methods that suit the characteristics of TCM compounds and can leverage their advantages for effective application in new drug development. This paper provided a comprehensive review of the cutting-edge optimization experimental design methods applied in recent studies of TCM compound compatibilities. The key technical issues， such as the optimization of source material selection， dosage optimization of compatible herbs， and multi-objective optimization indicators， were discussed. Furthermore， the evaluation methods for component effects were summarized during the optimization process， so as to provide scientific and practical foundations for innovative research in TCM and the development of new drugs based on TCM compounds.

To explore the cultivation path of excellent physicians in regional medical universities, a horizontal integration of clinical courses was performed to construct a curriculum centered on systemic diseases. Clinical courses adopted bedside rotation teaching with small class (30-40 students, 3-4 students/group). A comprehensive approach was designed and implemented, covering overall framework, organizational guarantee, teaching arrangement, teaching method, and assessment system. The effectiveness of the reform was evaluated through the comprehensive exams during the basic stage and national clinical medicine proficiency test. Despite no significant differences in the basic stage, the national clinical medicine proficiency test scores of the C2E class with teaching reform increased continuously from 2017 to 2020. The theoretical examination score of the C2E class was higher than that of regular classes 1 in 2017, 2019, and 2020. With continuous optimization, the skill examination score of the C2E class was significantly higher than that of regular class 1 in 2020. These findings highlight the effectiveness of the teaching reform and provide a foundation for the teaching reform of large class in five-year clinical medicine programs.
