		                        			BACKGROUND:Exercise as a form of active rehabilitation can improve the dysfunction caused by peripheral nerve injury,and different exercise modalities target different lesion sites and recovery mechanisms. OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively analyze the application and mechanisms of different exercise modalities in functional recovery from peripheral nerve injury. METHODS:A computerized search was conducted in PubMed and CNKI databases for relevant literature published before January 2024.The search terms used were"peripheral nerve injury,spinal cord,exercise,cerebral cortex,muscle atrophy,mirror therapy,blood flow restriction training"in both English and Chinese.Finally,77 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Peripheral nerve injury can cause systemic pathological changes such as skeletal muscle atrophy,corresponding spinal cord segmental lesions,and sensorimotor cortex remodeling.Aerobic exercise can improve dysfunction by enhancing the immune response,promoting glial cell polarization,and promoting the release of nerve growth factor.Blood flow restriction exercise can regulate the secretion of muscle growth factor,promote muscle growth and enhance muscle strength.Mirror movement has a good effect in activating the cerebral cortex and reducing cortical remodeling.Different exercise modalities have potential benefits in functional recovery after peripheral nerve injury;however,there are still some problems and challenges,such as the choice of exercise modalities,the control of exercise intensity and frequency,and the detailed analysis of mechanisms.

		                        			 As the number of patients with compromised immune function increases and fungal resistance develops, so does the risk of contracting deadly fungi in humans. Both fungi and humans are eukaryotes, so identifying unique targets for antifungal drug development is difficult. In addition, the existing antifungal drugs are limited by toxicity, drug interaction and drug resistance in practical application, which leads to the increasing incidence and fatal rate of fungal infections. Therefore, it is urgent to develop new antifungal drugs. The semi-synthetic technology using microbial fermentation products from natural sources as lead compounds has become the most used method in structural modification of antifungal drugs due to its advantages of few reaction steps and easy operation. This paper will introduce the current status of natural antifungal drugs in clinical use, as well as the latest progress in the research and development of new semi-synthetic antifungal drugs, and summarize their mechanism of action, structural modifications, advantages and disadvantages, so as to provide reference for the subsequent development of new antifungal drugs.

		                        			Objective  To explore the impact of severe weather on road traffic injuries (RTIs).  Methods  Relevant literature on the impact of meteorology on the occurrence and resulting casualties of road traffic injuries was searched. Meta-analysis was performed on the included literature using state16.0 software.  Results  A total of 28 articles were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that heat wave, cloudy day, snowy day, rainy day and other severe weather such as storm had a statistically significant impact on the occurrence of road traffic injuries. Severe weather such as storms had a statistically significant impact on RTIs casualties.  Conclusion  Heat wave, cloudy day, snowy day, rainy day, storm and other bad weather are independent risk factors for the occurrence of RTIs. Storm is a risk factor for accident casualties. There is not enough evidence to show that low temperature, cold wave and heavy fog are the influencing factors of road traffic accidents.

		                        			Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

		                        			To explore the pathogenesis and treatment of recurrent granulomatous mastitis based on "deficiency, toxin and blood stasis". It is believed that the main pathogenesis of recurrent granulomatous mastitis is spleen and stomach deficiency due to chronic illness, and at the same time, the persistent or intermittent presence of various causes makes the residual toxin unclear, which leads to the stagnation of local meridians and collaterals in the breast, accumulation of lumps, and then suppuration. Deficiency of qi and blood in zang-fu organs is the main cause of this disease, and residual toxin is the key factor of this disease. The treatment should focus on promoting therapy, promoting with dispersing, expelling with supplementing, supplementing with warming and dredging, dissolving toxins and releasing stasis, and the prescription is based on modified Tuoli Xiaodu Powder (托里消毒散) or self-prescribed Jiangru No.2 Formula (浆乳2号方). Overall, the treatment should combine deficiency, toxin and blood stasis with different syndrome differentiation and treatment, reinforce healthy qi and express toxin, and activate blood circulation and dredge collaterals with flexibly modification, to promote disease healing.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of Dayuanyin on acute lung injury induced by H1N1 infection and decipher the potential mechanism. MethodThe constituents in Dayuanyin were analyzed by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-exactive orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS). Forty-eight female BALB/c mice were randomized into normal, model, oseltamivir (19.5 mg·kg-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (2.73, 5.46, 10.92 g·kg-1) Dayuanyin groups. The normal and model groups were administrated with deionized water by gavage, and the other groups were administrated with the corresponding drugs by gavage. On day 3 of drug administration, the normal group received nasal inhalation of normal saline, and the other groups were inoculated intranasally with A/RP/8/34 (H1N1) for the modeling of influenza virus infection. Mice were administrated with drugs continuously for 7 days and weighed daily. Sampling was performed 12 h after the last administration, and the lung tissue was weighed to calculate the lung index. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed to observe the pathological and morphological changes of the lung tissue and bronchi. The cytometric bead array (CBA) was used to measure the serum levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), C-X-C motif ligand 1 (CXCL1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), interleukin-12p70 (IL-12p70), chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interferon-beta (IFN-β), interferon-alpha (IFN-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). According to the results of mass spectrometry and network pharmacology, we analyzed the mechanism of Dayuanyin in treating acute lung injury caused by H1N1. The protein levels of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), and their phosphorylated forms were determined by Western blot. The mRNA levels of myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), and Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) in the lung tissue were measured by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultA total of 57 compounds, including paeoniflorin and baicalein, were detected in Dayuanyin. Compared with the normal group, the model group showed decreased body weight (P<0.01), lung edema and hemorrhage, increased lung index (P<0.01), and elevated levels of IFN-γ, IL-12p70, CCL5, IL-1β, CXCL10, GM-CSF, IFN-β, and IL-6 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Dayuanyin attenuated alveolar wall thickening, capillary congestion, and immune cell infiltration, reduced the alterations in body weight and lung index (P<0.01), and down-regulated the protein levels of IFN-γ, IL-12p70, CCL5, IL-1β, CXCL10, GM-CSF, IFN-β, and IL-6 (P<0.01). A total of 57 key genes were predicted by network pharmacological analysis, of which the MAPK signaling pathway was the main target signaling pathway. Compared with the normal group, the model group showed up-regulation in the protein levels of phosphorylation (p)-ERK1/2, p-p38 MAPK, and p-NF-κB (P<0.01) and the mRNA levels of TLR7, TLR8, MyD88, and TLR3 (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Dayuanyin lowered the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, and NF-κB p65 in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.01) and down-regulated the mRNA levels of TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, and MyD88 (P<0.01). ConclusionDayuanyin can prevent and control H1N1 infection-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting the TLR/MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway.
