Objective To investigate the impact of vestibular dysfunction on various domains of cognitive function, providing a basis for developing comprehensive vestibular-cognitive intervention strategies. Methods A total of 33 patients with confirmed unilateral vestibular dysfunction treated at Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University between June 2024 and December 2024. Vestibular function was assessed using vestibular evoked myogenic potential (VEMP), caloric testing, video head impulse test (vHIT), and sensory organization test (SOT). Cognitive function was evaluated using mini-mental state examination (MMSE), Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA), Stroop color-word test, trail making test (TMT), and auditory verbal learning test (AVLT). Subjective symptoms were assessed using dizziness handicap inventory (DHI). Results In the vestibular function assessment of patients, abnormalities in caloric testing, utricle VEMP and saccule VEMP results were most common, with rates of 87.9%, 57.6%, and 66.7%, respectively; SOT abnormality primarily characterized by impaired vestibular function (21.2%). Spearman correlation analysis showed age, years of education, hearing ability, and emotional state were associated with overall or specific domains of cognitive function in patients. Greater vestibular dysfunction severity was associated with longer TMT-A time (r＝0.443，P＝0.010), most severe damage of short-term (r＝－0.405，P＝0.019) and long-term delayed recalls (r＝－0.537，P＝0.001). Patients with 31-60 of DHI scores showed longer TMT-A time than patients with 0-30 of DHI scores (P＝0.033). Conclusions Patients with vestibular dysfunction exhibit significant impairment in low-frequency semicircular canal and utricle function, which affects attention allocation, information processing speed, and memory performance in cognitive tasks.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effectiveness and potential mechanism of combined tongue three-needle acupuncture and acupoint application on Lianquan （CV 23） for patients with dysphagia after ischemic stroke. MethodsA prospective study was conducted on 160 patients with post-stroke dysphagia， who were randomly divided into a treatment group and a control group， with 80 cases in each group. The control group received conventional rehabilitation training， while the treatment group received tongue three-needle acupuncture combined with acupoint application on Lianquan （CV 23） on the basis of conventional rehabilitation training， for 4 weeks in both groups. We compared the clinical effectivenss of both groups after treatment， and assessed the swallowing function including videofluoroscopic swallowing study （VFSS）， standardized swallowing assessment （SSA） and functional oral intake scale （FIOS）， swallowing contrast test including hyoid maximum displacement （HmaxD）， pharyngeal transit time （PTT）， and upper esophageal sphincter （UES） opening， surface electromyography （sEMG） test including maximum amplitude and swallowing duration as well as swallowing quality of life questionnaire （SWAL-QOL） score of the patients in both groups before treatment， after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment， respectively. ResultsThe total effective rate in treatment group was 82.50% （66/80）， significantly higher than 66.25% （53/80） in control group （P＜0.05）. The VFSS， and FOIS scores， UES opening rate and HmaxD， sEMG maximal amplitude values， and SWAL-QOL scores were increased in both groups after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment compared with the values before treatment （P＜0.05）， while SSA scores， PTT， and swallowing duration were decreased compared within group before treatment （P＜0.05）. VFSS and FOIS scores， UES opening rate and HmaxD， sEMG maximal amplitude values， and SWAL-QOL scores after 2 and 4 weeks of treatment in the treatment group were higher （P＜0.05）， while SSA scores， PTT， and swallowing duration were lower （P＜0.05） than those in the control group at the same time. ConclusionCombined tongue three-needle acupuncture and acupoint application on Lianquan （CV 23） for patients with dysphagia after ischemic stroke can significantly improve swallowing activities， and its mechanism of action may be related to the improvement of the contraction ability and coordination of swallowing-related muscle groups.

Inflammation is involved in the development of various acute and chronic diseases in the body. Sustained inflammatory responses are key driving factors for diseases such as cancer， neurodegenerative diseases， cardiovascular diseases， metabolic syndrome， inflammatory bowel disease， and arthritis. Therefore， finding anti-inflammatory drugs is crucial for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. In recent years， there has been increasing attention to finding natural drugs with minimal toxic side effects. Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos， as traditional Chinese medicines potent in clearing heat and removing toxins， have strong biological activity and multiple pharmacological effects. They are widely distributed in the plant world and have significant medicinal value. With the continuous advancement of the research on Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos， they have been widely used in the medical field and possess great development potential. Currently， research mainly focuses on the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos， while systematic summaries of their anti-inflammatory active ingredients are rare. Therefore， this paper focuses on the differential analysis of the anti-inflammatory active components of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos. In addition， it reviewed the possible mechanisms by which extracts and active ingredients of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos may exert anti-inflammatory effects through various pathways， such as influencing the release of cellular inflammatory factors， regulating inflammatory signaling pathways such as nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB）， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3）， MAPK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase （ERK）/c-Jun N-terminal kinase （JNK）， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/NF-κB， and Janus kinase （JAK）/signal transducer and activator of transcription （STAT） signaling pathways， increasing antioxidant stress capacity， enhancing immune defense capabilities， and improving intestinal microbiota， aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the rational clinical application of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos.

Objective To explore the mechanism of malignant behavior of cervical cancer(CC)cells based on AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK)/rapamycin target protein(mTOR)signaling pathway mediated by nucleo-tide-binding oligomerization domain receptor 2(NOD2).Methods Bioinformatics analysis was performed to deter-mine the expression of NOD2 in CC tissue.Plasmids targeting NOD2(shNOD2)and shRNAs negative control(shNC),NOD2 overexpression(NOD2)and vectors(Vec)were transfected into CC cells.The effect of NOD2 on the growth of CC cells was determined by cell counting kit-8 assay,colony formation and Transwell cell invasion as-say.Transcriptome analysis was performed by high throughput RNA sequencing(RNA-Seq).Western blot was used to detect the expression of NOD2,AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway and autophagy protein in the cell line.24 female BALB/c nude mice were randomly divided into four groups,with 6 mice in each group:vector group(Vec group),NOD2 overexpression group(NOD2 group),shNC group and shNOD2 group.The distant metastasis mod-el was established in mice,and the fluorescence intensity of lung metastasis was monitored and the number of lung metastasis nodules was counted.Results On-line database analysis showed that the expression of NOD2 in CC tis-sues was significantly higher than that in normal tissues,and there were significant differences in the mRNA expres-sion of NOD2 in different stages of CC(P＜0.05).In addition,the high expression of NOD2 was associated with poor overall survival and disease-free survival(P＜0.05).NOD2 overexpression promoted the proliferation,colony formation,migration and invasion of CC cells,while NOD2 knock-down was the opposite.Consistent with the re-sults in vitro,the lung colonization and lung metastasis of CC cells in NOD2 group were significantly higher than those in Vec group(P＜0.05),while those in shNOD2 group were significantly lower than those in shNC group(P＜0.05).RNA-Seq results showed that the expression of NOD2 was significantly related to AMPK signal activa-tion,mTOR signal inhibition,autophagy regulation pathway activation and autophagy formation.Compared with shNC group,the expression of phosphorylated AMPK and LC3 protein decreased significantly in shNOD2 group(P＜0.05),and the expression levels of phosphorylated mTOR and p62 protein increased significantly(P＜0.05).Compared with Vec group,the expression levels of LC3 and AMPK protein in NOD2 group increased significantly(P＜0.05),and the expression levels of phosphorylated mTOR and p62 protein decreased significantly(P＜0.05).Compared with shNC group,the point accumulation of GFP-mRFP-LC3 in shNOD2 group decreased signifi-cantly(P＜0.05).Compared with Vec group,the point accumulation of GFP-mRFP-LC3 increased significantly(P＜0.05).Conclusion NOD2 may promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of CC through AMPK/mTOR signal,and its mechanism partly involves autophagy activation.

Objective To analyze and compare the treatment of HeppleⅤ talus osteochondral injury(OLT)with autologous periosteal iliac bone graft and allogeneic bone powder combined with platelet rich gel(PRP).Methods Totally 62 HeppleⅤOLT patients admitted to our hospital from October 2018 to October 2022 were selected as the research subjects.They were divided into a transplantation group(31 patients received autologous periosteal iliac bone transplantation treatment)and a combination group(31 patients received allogeneic bone powder combined with PRP treatment)based on their treatment methods.Conduct a 12 month postoperative outpatient follow-up study on patients,evaluate and compare the treatment effectiveness,ankle joint range of motion(ROM),American Society of Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Surgeons(AOFAS)ankle posterior foot score,pain score,satisfaction,and incidence of complications between the two groups of patients at 12 months after surgery.Results The total effective rate of the transplantation group(96.77%)was not significantly different from that of the combination group(93.55%,P>0.05).At 12 months after surgery,the ROM and AOFAS scores of both groups improved(P<0.05),and there was no statistically significant difference between the groups(P>0.05).At 1 month,3 months,6 months,and 12 months after surgery,the pain scores of both groups decreased compared to before surgery(P<0.05).The subjective overall satisfaction of patients in the transplantation group(77.42%)was lower than that in the combination group(96.77%,P<0.05).The total incidence of complications in the transplantation group(19.35%)was significantly higher than that in the combination group(3.23%,P<0.05).Conclusion Allogeneic bone powder combined with PRP can avoid additional surgical incisions,increase patient subjective satisfaction,and increase the incidence of postoperative complications.

Objective To explore the epidemiological characteristics of mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection in hospitalized children between 2019 and 2022, and to provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of the disease in the clinic. Methods Blood samples of 12 830 children hospitalized for respiratory tract infection in our hospital between January 2019 and December 2022 were collected, and tested for MP infection, then the prevalence of MP infection in different years, seasons, genders and ages was analyzed. Results The total positive rate of MP was 16.55% (2 123 / 12 830). The annual prevalence rate of MP infection decreased from 17.97% in 2019 to 16.48% in 2022, with statistical difference (P<0.05). In terms of gender, the prevalence of MP infection was higher in females at a rate of 19.38% (1 198 / 6 182) compared with a rate of 13.91% (925 / 6 648) in males, with statistical difference (χ²=69.277, P<0.05).The positive rates in summer (19.84%) and autumn (19.57%) were higher than those in spring (12.97%) and winter (12.38%) (P<0.05) In terms of age, the positive rate of MP infection was 9.68% in < 1 age group, 12.95% in 1-3 age group, 18.23% in 4-6 age group and 23.23% in > 6 age group (P<0.05), with the highest positive rate in > 6 age group. The positive rate of MP infection was 15.49% in acute upper respiratory tract infection , 17.28% in acute lower respiratory tract infection , 16.43% in severe pneumonia, and 16.71% in other diseases, with no statistical difference (P>0.05). Conclusion MP is one of the main pathogens of respiratory infections in hospitalized children. Despite the decreasing trend in MP infection rate in hospitalized children between 2019 and 2022, it remains above the norm. MP infection is characterized by a high prevalence in summer and autumn, children >6 years of age, and girls, so effective measures should be taken to guide clinical anti-infection strategies to improve the physical and mental health of children in this region.

Objective:To investigate the effect of tripartite motif-containing protein 59 (TRIM59) on glucose metabolism in macrophages and its role in regulating hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α)/IL-10 axis in macrophages under inflammatory conditions.Methods:The differentially expressed genes between macrophages with high expression of TRIM59 and control cells transfected with empty TRIM59 plasmid were analyzed by GO and KEGG. The expression of HIF-1α by RAW264.7 macrophages with high expression of TRIM59 was detected at different time points after lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation by RT-qPCR and Western blot. Bone marrow was isolated from TRIM59-cKO and TRIM59 flox/flox mice and induced to differentiate into bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). These BMDMs were stimulated with LPS and the supernatants of cell culture were collected at 3, 6, 12 and 24 h after stimulation to detect IL-10 level by ELISA. In addition, mouse models of cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) were established, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected at the same time points to detect IL-10 level by ELISA. Histopathological changes in lung tissues were observed after HE staining. Results:There was a significant change in glucose metabolism-related genes in macrophages with high expression of TRIM59, and the content of lactic acid increased significantly. Compared with the control group, the expression of HIF-1α at mRNA level in BMDMs from TRIM59-cKO mice decreased after LPS stimulation ( P<0.05); the level of IL-10 increased at 3 h and 24 h in the TRIM59-cKO group, but there was no significant difference in IL-10 level at 6 h or 12 h between the two groups. In the TRIM59-cKO mouse model of CLP, the levels of IL-10 in the BALF samples increased with time, but decreased at 24 h. The level of IL-10 was higher in the TRIM59-cKO mouse model group than that in the control group at each time point ( P<0.05 or P<0.01). Conclusions:TRIM59 can inhibit inflammation and lung injury by decreasing HIF-1α-mediated lactate secretion and IL-10 expression in macrophages. This study provides a new idea for developing novel anti-sepsis drugs based on TRIM59.
