ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of blue light on emmetropization in guinea pigs， explore the potential mechanisms and assess its application in myopia prevention and control. MethodsThree-week-old male guinea pigs （n=20） were randomly assigned to the white light group and the blue light group. Refraction and ocular biological parameters were measured every 2 weeks until the experiment ended at week 8. And the 4D-data-independent acquisition （4D-DIA） proteomics technology was used to analyze retina from both the blue light and white light groups， exploring protein composition， expression differences， and biological functions. ResultsAfter 2 weeks， Guinea pigs exposed to white light gradually tended towards emmetropia， showing a statistically significant difference in refractive error compared to the blue light group （P<0.001）. From week 4， the axial length of the blue light group was significantly shorter than that of the white light group （P<0.05）. Meanwhile， the vitreous chamber length in the blue light group was significantly smaller than that of the white light group from week 2 （P<0.05）. A total of 161 differentially expressed proteins were identified by proteomics technology in the retina， with 98 proteins upregulated and 63 proteins downregulated. These proteins were primarily enriched in biosynthetic pathways such as vesicle transport， redox reaction， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism and NAD+ metabolism. ConclusionsGuinea pigs raised under blue light exhibit hyperopic drift and slowed axial elongation， which slows the procession of emmetropization. Based on the 4D-DIA technology， the differentially expressed proteins between the blue light and white light groups are primarily involved in NAD+ metabolism， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism. Especially in NAD+ salvage synthesis， nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase （NAMPT） is upregulated， while sirtuin 2 （SIRT2） is downregulated. It provides new insights into the mechanism of blue light in emmetropization and a theoretical basis for myopia prevention and control.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the supportive policies for caregivers issued in China, and analyze the structures and contents. MethodsThe national supportive policies for family caregivers in China within the past decade were text-mined using ROSTCM 6.0. Secondary indicators were established according to the Policy Modeling Consistency (PMC) index model combining with World Health Organization six blocks of health services. ResultsThe average PMC score was 7.38. There were seven good policies and three accepted policies. The policies covered well in publicity, recipients and functions, and needed to improve in incentive and restraint. ConclusionChina's policies have played a positive role in supporting family caregivers. It is needed to reduce the burden on family caregivers and improve their welfare.

With the continuous development of surgery,the amount of Da Vinci robot surgery has increased year by year,and Da Vinci robot has been widely used in the field of surgery.However,due to its structural characteristics,robot surgical instruments are difficult to clean after contamination,which poses a great challenge to the cleaning technology of nurses in central sterile supply department(CSSD).At present,there are still some problems in the cleaning quality management of Da Vinci robotic surgical instruments,such as inadequate pre-treatment,non-standard manual cleaning process,and inconsistent cleaning quality evaluation methods,which bring great hidden dangers to patients'medical safety.Therefore,scientific and effective cleaning quality control is very important to prevent nosocomial infection and ensure the life safety of patients.This paper reviews the cleaning process and quality control on Da Vinci robotic surgical instruments by consulting,screening,sorting and summarizing domestic and foreign relevant literature of the cleaning and management,and combining with the actual clinical work of the disinfection supply center,and aims to provide theoretical references for the formulation of guidelines and clinical practice for the personnel of CSSD.

During the process of dairy farming,various factors such as physical injury and bacterial infection act upon body tissues or organs,leading to the disruption of skin or mucous tissue integ-rity and subsequent tissue injury and trauma.The healing of these injuries is a complex process that necessitates the coordinated efforts of different cells and involvement of diverse cytokines.A-mong them,the interaction between macrophages and myofibroblasts is indispensable for efficient tissue repair.Nod-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),a pattern recognition receptor in the innate im-mune system,may play a regulatory role in modulating this intricate process.In this study,cow myofibroblasts and M1 type bone marrow-derived macrophages were cultured in vitro,followed by collection of cell culture supernatant for co-culture analysis.Both cytokine secretion levels in M1 type bone marrow-derived macrophages as well as expression patterns levels of myofibroblast growth factor protein and mRNA were detected.The regulatory mechanism underlying NLRP3 in-volvement in mediating interactions between these two cell types was investigated using NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950.The results showed that an effective method for culturing cow muscle fibroblasts in vitro was successfully established and myofibroblast conditioned medium(MFbCM)could regulate M1 macrophage secretion profiles.Moreover,M1 macrophage conditioned medium(M1?CM)was found to influence myofibroblast growth factor expression levels.Our findings sug-gest that NLRP3 plays a significant regulatory role during crosstalk between myofibroblasts and M1-type pro-inflammatory macrophages.

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a widely distributed and evolutionarily conserved serine/threonine protein kinase present in eukaryotic cells. In regulating cellular energy metabolism, AMPK plays an extremely important role as an energy metabolic kinase. When the body is in a low energy state, AMPK is activated in response to changes in intracellular adenine nucleotide levels and is bound to adenosine monophosphate (AMP) or adenosine diphosphate (ADP). Activated AMPK regulates various metabolic processes, including lipid and glucose metabolism and cellular autophagy. AMPK directly promotes autophagy by phosphorylating autophagy-related proteins in the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1), serine/threonine protein kinase-dysregulated 51-like kinase 1 (ULK1) and type Ⅲ phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-vacuolar protein-sorting 34 (PIK3C3-VPS34) complexes. AMPK also indirectly promotes autophagy by regulating the expression of downstream autophagy-related genes of transcription factors such as forkhead box O3 (FOXO3), lysosomal function transcription factor EB (TFEB) and bromodomain protein 4 (BRD4). AMPK also regulates mitochondrial autophagy, induces the division of damaged mitochondria and promotes the transfer of the autophagic response to damaged mitochondria. Another function of AMPK is to regulate mitochondrial health by stimulating mitochondrial biogenesis and participating in various aspects of mitochondrial homeostasis regulation. This review discusses the specific regulation of mitochondrial biology and internal environmental homeostasis by AMPK signaling channels as central to the cellular response to energy stress and regulation of mitochondria, highlighting the key role of AMPK in regulating cellular autophagy and mitochondrial autophagy, as well as advances in research on the regulation of mitochondrial homeostasis.

Inflammatory bowel disease(IBD)is a serious disorder,and exploration of active compounds to treat it is necessary.An acidic polysaccharide named SUSP-4 was purified from Selaginella uncinata(Desv.)Spring,which contained galacturonic acid,galactose,xylose,arabinose,and rhamnose with the main chain structure of →4)-α-D-GalAp-(1 → and →6)-β-D-Galp-(1 → and the branched structure of →5)-α-L-Araf-(1 →.Animal experiments showed that compared with Model group,SUSP-4 significantly improved body weight status,disease activity index(DAI),colonic shortening,and histopathological damage,and elevated occludin and zonula occludens protein 1(ZO-1)expression in mice induced by dextran sulfate sodium salt(DSS).16S ribosomal RNA(rRNA)sequencing indicated that SUSP-4 markedly downregulated the level of Akkermansia and Alistipes.Metabolomics results confirmed that SUSP-4 obviously elevated thiamine levels compared with Model mice by adjusting thiamine metabolism,which was further confirmed by a targeted metabolism study.Fecal transplantation experiments showed that SUSP-4 exerted an anti-IBD effect by altering the intestinal flora in mice.A mechanistic study showed that SUSP-4 markedly inhibited macrophage activation by decreasing the levels of phospho-nuclear factor kappa-B(p-NF-κB)and cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)and elevating NF-E2-related factor 2(Nrf2)levels compared with Model group.In conclusion,SUSP-4 affected thiamine metabolism by regulating Akker-mania and inhibited macrophage activation to adjust NF-κB/Nrf2/COX-2-mediated inflammation and oxidative stress against IBD.This is the first time that plant polysaccharides have been shown to affect thiamine metabolism against IBD,showing great potential for in-depth research and development applications.

Polygonum multiflorum （PM）， a commonly used Chinese herbal medicine in clinical practice， has been associated with frequent reports of liver injury in recent years， and the medication safety of PM has attracted more and more attention in China and globally. This article reviews the recent research advances in the signaling pathways and mechanisms of PM in causing drug-induced liver injury （DILI） and aims to provide new ideas for the proper and rational use of PM in clinical practice. The results show that PM is involved in the regulation of various signaling pathways， and it leads to the death of hepatocytes by destroying mitochondrial function， exacerbating bile acid accumulation， and inducing immune response， oxidative stress， and endoplasmic reticulum stress， thereby inducing the development and progression of DILI through multiple targets， pathways， and levels.

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the seasonal impact of diurnal temperature range (DTR) on hospitalization rates for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in middle-aged and elderly adults. METHODS: We collected data on the DTR and hospitalization records of ≥45-year-old patients with ICH in 2019 in Hunan Province, central China. Time-series analyses were performed using a distributed lag non-linear model. RESULTS: Overall, 54,690 hospitalizations for ICH were recorded. DTR showed a non-linear relationship with ICH hospitalization in both middle-aged and elderly populations (45-59 and ≥60 years, respectively). During spring, a low DTR coupled with persistently low temperatures increased ICH risk in both age groups, while a high DTR was associated with an increased risk in the middle-aged group only (relative risk [RR], 1.24; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.21 to 1.27). In the summer, a low DTR combined with persistently high temperatures was linked to a higher risk exclusively in the middle-aged group. A high DTR in the autumn was correlated with increased risk in both age groups. In winter, either a low DTR with a continuously low temperature or a high DTR elevated the risk solely in the elderly population (RR, 1.37; 95% CI, 1.00 to 1.69). In the elderly group, the impact of DTR on hospitalization risk manifested within a 5-day period. CONCLUSIONS The impact of DTR on ICH hospitalization risk differed significantly across seasons and between age groups. Elderly individuals demonstrated greater sensitivity to the impact of DTR. Weather forecasting services should emphasize DTR values, and interventions targeting sensitive populations are needed.
