The " liver disease affecting to the spleen" theory first appeared in Nanjing and was further elaborated in Jingui Yaolue. This theory encapsulates the traditional Chinese medicine principles of the " unity of the five viscera" and the " preventive treatment of disease" . The theory emphasizes that the spleen is the pivotal point where depression may progress from a functional disorder to an organic disease. The liver governs the emotions and qi flow, whereas the spleen is responsible for qi, blood, and body. In the early stages of the disease, emotional disorders and qi flow disorders primarily affect the liver, manifesting as depression or low mood. As the condition progresses, the liver (Wood) overacts on the spleen (Earth), disrupting liver and spleen functions and causing qi and blood disharmony. This stage is marked by fatigue and psychomotor retardation. Prolonged illness depletes qi and blood, eventually involving all five viscera, disrupting the harmony of the five spirits, and affecting both body and spirit. At this advanced phase, intense emotional distress or agitation often arises, accompanied by a heightened risk of suicide. The disease progression follows a dynamic " qi-blood-spirit" pattern, in which depression begins in the liver, characterized by qi stagnation, then affects the spleen, involving blood disharmony. In later stages, the disease eventually affects all viscera, with profound effects on both physical and mental health. Treatment strategies should align with the disease stage. Early intervention should focus on regulating the flow of qi, treating the liver, and strengthening the spleen. In the middle stages, qi and blood should be harmonized while promoting the harmonized functions of the liver and spleen. In the later stages, treatment should harmonize the five viscera to restore balance between body and spirit. Guided by this theory, integrating modern medical understanding of the progression of depression from emotional to somatic symptoms and adopting a stage-based approach to treatment in clinical practice can yield effective therapeutic outcomes for managing depression and related disorders.

Aim To investigate the effect of miR-141-5p/ZNF705A in chronic myeloid leukemia(CML)cell-derived exosome(Exo)on the adhesion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs). Methods The morphology and size of Exo in peripheral blood from CML patients and K562 cells were examined by electron microscopy and NTA particle size analysis. The expressions of Exo and BMSCs marker molecules and adhesion proteins in K562 cells were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot before and after transfection. The adhesion ability of BMSCs was detected by cell adhesion assay, and the cellular activity of BMSCs was examined using CCK-8. miR-141-5p binding to ZNF705A was detected by luciferase assay. Results qRT-PCR results showed that miR-141-5p expression was significantly reduced in both CML patients and K562 cell-derived Exo. qRT-PCR, Western blot and other results showed that BMSCs in CML patients had significantly reduced the expression of adhesion proteins CD44 and CXCL12, and were able to phagocytose K562 cell-derived Exo. Further, K562-derived Exo was found to reduce CD44 and CXCL12 expression and adhesion in Exo-promoted BMSCs compared with CD34+ cells. Meanwhile, the results of dual luciferase reporter assay verified that miR-141-5p targeted binding to ZNF705A. Finally, we found ZNF705A could be targeted by up-regulating miR-141-5p expression in Exo of K562 cells, which in turn inhibited the adhesion of BMSCs. Conclusions K562 cells down-regulate miR-141-5p expression in Exo and inhibit the adhesion function of BMSCs by targeting ZNF705A, thus regulating the bone marrow hematopoietic function in CML patients.

Objective To investigate the expression level and clinical significance of microRNA(miR)-181c and microRNA(miR)-578 in the serum of patients with sepsis complicated by acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods Eighty patients with sepsis complicated by AKI(AKI group)and 80 patients with simple sepsis(non AKI group)who were hospitalized in Sinopharm Gezhouba Central Hospital from January 2022 to December 2022 were collected as research subjects.The serum levels of miR-181c and miR-578 in two groups were detected and compared.Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of sepsis patients complicated by AKI.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum miR-181c and miR-578 levels for patients with sepsis complicated by AKI.Results The proportion of pulmonary infection,the level of arterial blood lactic acid,creatinine,urea nitrogen and APACHEⅡ score in AKI group were higher than those in non-AKI group,and the oxygenation index was lower,the differences were statistically significant(χ2=7.364,t=14.298,26.691,17.925,7.104,12.676,all P＜0.05).The serum miR-181c level in the AKI group(1.47±0.36)was higher than that in the non AKI group(1.03±0.28),the serum miR-578 level(0.76±0.19)was lower than that in the non AKI group(1.05±0.31),and the differences were statistically significant(t=8.629,7.134,all P=0.000).Logistic regression analysis showed that miR-181c[OR(95%CI):2.984(1.628～5.468)],pulmonary infection[OR(95%CI):1.946(1.250～3.031)],arterial blood lactic acid[OR(95%CI):1.457(1.073～1.978)],and APACHE Ⅱ score[OR(95%CI):2.283(1.393～3.741)]were risk factors for AKI in sepsis patients(all P＜0.05);miR-578[OR(95%CI):0.742(0.631～0.873)]and oxygenation index[OR(95%CI):0.342(0.130～0.904)]were protective factors(all P＜0.05).The combined prediction of serum miR-181c and miR-578 for AKI in sepsis patients had an AUC of 0.915,a sensitivity and a specificity of 83.65%,88.75%,respectively,which was superior to their individual predictions(Z=3.118,3.460,P=0.002,0.001).Conclusion The serum miR-181c expression is obviously up-regulated and miR-578 expression is obviously down-regulated in patients with sepsis complicated by AKI.The combination of the two has good reference value for predicting sepsis complicated by AKI.

The p53 protein is an essential tumor suppressor in the human body that plays a critical role in preventing tumor formation by controlling cell cycle arrest and promoting apoptosis. Mutations in the p53 gene are frequently observed in more than 50% of tumor tissues and lead to the generation of mutant p53 proteins, which not only have a dominant-negative effect (DN) that hinders the function of wild-type p53 protein but also have gain-of-function (GOF) effects that stimulate tumor development by regulating cell metabolism, invasion, migration, and other processes. Therefore, mutant p53 protein has become a specific drug target for cancer therapy. However, the lack of a drug-binding pocket and smooth surface of mutant p53 proteins have made them undruggable targets for a long time. In recent years, with the development of high-throughput screening technology and an enhanced understanding of the structure and conformational changes exhibited by mutant p53 proteins, a multitude of small molecule compounds directed against mutant p53 protein have been identified, exhibiting substantial in vitro anti-tumor efficacy. Moreover, some of these compounds have entered clinical trials. This review summarized the direct and indirect strategies for the treatment of cancers targeting mutant p53, with a primary focus on the mechanisms of action of small molecule compounds that reactivate mutant p53 protein or degrade mutant p53 protein. The aim is to provide assistance for the development of innovative drugs targeting mutant p53 protein in the future.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of total hip replacement(THA)in the treatment of traumatic arthritis secondary to acetabular fracture.Methods From October 2019 to June 2022,15 patients with secondary traumatic arthritis of acetabulum fracture were treated with THA.There were 8 males and 7 females,aged from 40 to 76 years old with an average of(59.20±9.46)years old.Prosthesis loosening,dislocation of hip joint,range of motion of hip joint,nerve injury and other conditions were recorded before and after surgery.Harris score,visual analogue scale(VAS)and imaging were used to e-valuate hip joint function and surgical effect.Results Follow-up time ranged 6 to 39 months with an average of(18.33±9.27)months.All the 15 patients successfully completed the operation,no nerve and blood vessel injury during the operation,post-operative wound healing was stage Ⅰ,no infection,one case of acetabular side prosthesis loosening at half a year after opera-tion,and recovered well after revision surgery,one case of hip dislocation was cured after open reduction treatment,no adverse consequences.Harris score at the last postoperative follow-up was(88.60±4.01)points,compared with the preoperative(47.20±1 1.77)points,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05),and VAS at the lateat postoperative follow-up was 1(1)points,compared with the preoperative 8(2)points,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).At the last follow-up,the pain symptoms were relieved or disappeared,and the joint function was satisfactory.The imaging data of the latest fol-low-up showed joint was well pseudoradiated,no abnormal ossification occurred,and the prosthesis was not loose.Conclusion THA is effective in the treatment of traumatic arthritis secondary to acetabular fracture and can effectively improve the quality of life of patients.Preoperative comprehensive evaluation and bone defect evaluation of patients,and intraoperative manage-ment of acetabulum,femur,internal fixation and bone defect are key factors for the success of surgery.

Objective To investigate the causes of abnormal decrease in maximum amplitude(MA)of thromboelastog-raphy(TEG)and its effect on prognosis by monitoring the changes of coagulation-related indexes in emergency trauma pa-tients.Methods A total of 319 cases of trauma patients admitted to our hospital from September 2020 to September 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,and the coagulation-related indexes of 0 h and 24 h after admission were observed.According to the MA results,they were divided into normal MA group(>50 mm)and reduced MA group(≤50 mm)to compare the hemoglobin(Hb),platelets count(Plt),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),prothrombin time(PT),fibrinogen(Fib),thrombin time(TT),D-dimer(D-D),coagulation reaction time(R),clot formation kinetics(Angle),30 min clot dissolution rate(Ly30),MA,thrombine-antithrombin complex(TAT)and plasminase-α2 plasminase inhibitor complex(PIC).The correlation between MA and fibrinolysis indexes in 319 trauma patients was analyzed.According to whether tranexamic acid(TXA)was used,the reduced MA group was divided into a TXA group and a non-drug group.The differ-ences in the change of the above coagulation-related indexes,mortality rate and changes in blood product dosage were com-pared between the two groups.Results Compared with the normal MA group,Hb,Plt,Fib,diastolic blood pressure and GCS scores decreased,while heart rate,ISS score and mortality increased significantly in the reduced MA group(P<0.05).The R,PT and TT were prolonged significantly(P<0.05),and PIC and D-D increased significantly(P<0.05)in the re-duced MA group.Correlation analysis found that MA had no correlation with Ly30,TAT and APTT,but was correlated with Angle(r=0.803),Plt(r=0.544),Fib(r=0.581),PIC(r=-0.443)and D-D(r=-0.343).Compared with the non-drug group,the change of Angle,MA and FIB in the TXA group increased significantly(P<0.05),while the change of PIC de-creased(P<0.05).Cryoprecipitate and platelet transfusion in the TXA group reduced significantly(P<0.05),and red blood cell transfusion had a decreasing trend,but the difference was not significant(P>0.05).The mortality rate in the TXA group was reduced significantly(P<0.05).Conclusion Hyperfibrinolysis may be an important factor in the abnormal decrease of MA in emergency trauma patients.Treatment with TXA can improve its effect on MA,and reduce the transfusion of blood products and the patient mortality.

Objective    To investigate the clinical efficacy of minimally invasive Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy (MIILE) with reverse-puncture anastomosis. Methods    Clinical data of the patients with lower esophageal carcinoma who underwent MIILE with reverse-puncture anastomosis in our department from May 2015 to December 2020 were collected. Modified MIILE consisted of several key steps: (1) pylorus fully dissociated; (2) making gastric tube under laparoscope; (3) dissection of esophagus and thoracic lymph nodes under artificial pneumothorax with single-lumen endotracheal tube intubation in semi-prone position; (4) left lung ventilation with bronchial blocker; (5) intrathoracic anastomosis with reverse-puncture anastomosis technique. Results     Finally 248 patients were collected, including 206 males and 42 females, with a mean age of 63.3±7.4 years. All 248 patients underwent MIILE with reverse-puncture anastomosis successfully. The mean operation time was 176±35 min and estimated blood loss was 110±70 mL. The mean number of lymph nodes harvested from each patient was 24±8. The rate of lymph node metastasis was 43.1% (107/248). The pulmonary complication rate was 13.7% (34/248), including 6 patients of acute respiratory distress syndrome. Among the 6 patients, 2 patients needed endotracheal intubation-assisted respiration. Postoperative hemorrhage was observed in 5 patients and 2 of them needed hemostasis under thoracoscopy. Thoracoscopic thoracic duct ligation was performed in 1 patient due to the type Ⅲ chylothorax. TypeⅡ anastomotic leakage was found in 3 patients and 1 of them died of acute respiratory distress syndrome. One patient of delayed broncho-gastric fistula was cured after secondary operation. Ten patients with type Ⅰ recurrent laryngeal nerve injury were cured after conservative treatment. All patients were followe up for at least 16 months. The median follow-up time was 44 months. The 3-year survival rate was 71.8%, and the 5-year survival rate was 57.8%. Conclusion    The optimized MIILE with reverse-puncture anastomosis for the treatment of lower esophageal cancer is safe and feasible, and the long-term survival is satisfactory.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors(ICIs)mainly including the CTL antigen 4(CTLA-4)and PD-1/PD-L1,which would offer a notable clinical benefit for non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients.By strengthening the antitumor immune re-sponse of the body,ICIs lead to immune-related adverse events(irAEs),including checkpoint inhibitor pneumitis(CIP).Although the clinical incidence of CIP is relatively low,some serious cases may prolong or terminate of immunotherapy,even life threateing.This article tries to summarize the clinical manifestations,pathological characteristics,biological mechanism,susceptible population,diagnosis and differential diagnosis,and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine treatment of CIP,in order to understand CIP more clearly.
