ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of linalool against acute liver injury induced by aflatoxin B1(AFB1) in rats and explore its protective mechanism. MethodTwenty male SPF SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: Control (n=6), AFB1 (n=7), and linalool (n=7) groups. Linalool solution (200 mg·kg-1) was administered preventatively for 14 days, while the control and AFB1 groups intragastrically received an equivalent volume of double distilled water. After preventative administration of linalool, AFB1 solution (1 mg·kg-1, dissolved in saline) was intraperitoneally injected for two consecutive days to induce acute liver injury in rats. Samples were collected and processed 14 days after model establishment. Pathological changes in liver tissue of rats were observed using Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining and Masson staining. Biochemical detection was performed to measure the levels of alanine transaminase(ALT), aspartate transaminase(AST), γ-glutamyl transferase(GGT), lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), alkaline phosphatase(ALP), total bilirubin(TBil), direct bilirubin(DBil), indirect bilirubin(IBil), malondialdehyde(MDA), superoxidedismutase(SOD), catalase(CAT) , glutathione(GSH), Fe3+, and Fe2+ in the liver tissue. Western blot was adopted to assess protein expression levels of nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2) and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1). Molecular docking was performed to verify the binding between linalool and key proteins of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. Molecular dynamics techniques were used to confirm the stability and affinity of linalool binding with key proteins of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway. ResultPathological results showed that compared to that in the AFB1 group, the liver structure in the linalool group tended to be normal, with a significant decrease in blue collagen fibers. The linalool group exhibited significantly reduced levels of ALT, AST, GGT, LDH, ALP, TBil, DBil, and IBil (P<0.01), Fe3+ and Fe2+ content, and oxidative stress marker MDA (P<0.01). The levels of antioxidants SOD, CAT, and GSH significantly increased (P<0.01). Molecular docking showed a molecular docking energy between linalool and Nrf2 and HO-1 targets of -5.495 6 and -5.199 4 kcal·mol-1(1 cal≈4.186 J), respectively. Molecular dynamics results indicated strong affinity in the binding of linalool with Nrf2 and HO-1. Western blot revealed a significant increase in Nrf2 protein expression (P<0.05) and a decrease in HO-1 protein expression (P<0.01) in the linalool group. ConclusionLinalool may protect against AFB1-induced acute liver injury by modulating the Nrf2/HO-1 ferroptosis signaling pathway to inhibit liver cell ferroptosis and regulate hepatic oxidative stress levels.

In the context of facing the dual challenges of aging population and declining birth rates, the absolute number of working-age population in China is decreasing, while the proportion of middle-aged and elderly workers is significantly increasing. However, China possesses a vast labor force, and the advantages of talent dividend are gradually emerging, both of which can offset the negative impact of the shrinking demographic dividend on social productivity. Labor is the most active factor among various production factors and is an important component for developing new quality productive forces. With the development of new quality productive forces, occupational health and occupational medicine are presented with new development opportunities. In the process of aging of the labor force, occupational health and occupational medicine can investigate how to utilize next-generation information technology, artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and other growth engines to safeguard the occupational health of workers, extend their working lives, actively unleash their creativity and initiative, and compensate for the labor shortage caused by an aging population and the potential decrease in labor productivity. This transformation in occupational health and occupational medicine is not only crucial for the health and career development of workers in an aging society, but will also have a positive impact on the creation of an age-friendly society and the sustainable development of productivity.

ObjectiveMetabolomics was utilized to investigate the preventive effect of notoginseng total saponins(NTS) on aspirin(acetyl salicylic acid, ASA)-induced small bowel injury in rats. MethodFifty male SD rats were randomly divided into normal and model groups, NTS high-dose and low-dose groups(62.5, 31.25 mg·kg-1), and positive drug group(omeprazole 2.08 mg·kg-1+rebamipide 31.25 mg·kg-1), with 10 rats in each group. Except for the normal group, rats in other groups were given ASA enteric-coated pellets 10.41 mg·kg-1 daily to establish a small intestine injury model. On this basis, each medication group was gavaged daily with the corresponding dose of drug, and the normal group and the model group were gavaged with an equal amount of drinking water. Changes in body mass and fecal characteristics of rats were recorded and scored during the period. After 14 weeks of administration, small intestinal tissues of each group were taken for hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining, scanning electron microscopy to observe the damage, and the apparent damage of small intestine was scored. Serum from rats in the normal group, the model group, and the NTS high-dose group was taken and analyzed for metabolomics by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS), and the data were processed by multivariate statistical analysis, the potential biomarkers were screened by variable importance in the projection(VIP) value≥1.0, fold change(FC)≥1.5 or ≤0.6 and t-test P<0.05, and pathway enrichment analysis of differential metabolites was performed in conjunction with Human Metabolome Database(HMDB) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG). ResultAfter 14 weeks of administration, the average body mass gain of the model group was lower than that of the normal group, and the NTS high-dose group was close to that of the normal group. Compared with the normal group, the fecal character score of rats in the model group was significantly increased(P<0.05), and compared with the model group, the scores of the positive drug group and the NTS high-dose group were reduced, but the difference was not statistically significant. HE staining and scanning electron microscopy results showed that NTS could significantly improve ASA-induced small intestinal injury, compared with the normal group, the small bowel injury score of the model group was significantly increased(P<0.01), compared with the model group, the small bowel injury scores of the NTS low and high dose groups were significantly reduced(P<0.05, P<0.01). Serum metabolomics screened a total of 75 differential metabolites between the normal group and the model group, of which 55 were up-regulated and 20 were down-regulated, 76 differential metabolites between the model group and the NTS groups, of which 14 were up-regulated and 62 were down-regulated. NTS could modulate three differential metabolites(salicylic acid, 3-hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid), which were involved in 3 metabolic pathways, namely, the bile secretion, the biosynthesis of folic acid, and the biosynthesis of phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan. ConclusionNTS can prevent ASA-induced small bowel injury, and the underlying mechanism may be related to the regulation of bile secretion and amino acid metabolic pathways in rats.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

High quality is the premise for the implementation of high quality and good price for decoction pieces, and grade is the most direct manifestation of high quality of decoction pieces. However, there is still a lack of scientific and reasonable methods for evaluating the grade of decoction pieces, and it is urgent to establish a widely recognized and unified standard for the grade of decoction pieces to ensure the quality of the decoction pieces and guarantee the safety and efficacy of clinical use. Based on this, this paper focused on analyzing the problems of the current grade evaluation methods, such as unclear distinction between quality standards and grade standards, unreasonable selection of grade evaluation indicators, and inaccurate application of mathematical statistical methods. Based on the analysis of the grade evaluation of decoction pieces, this paper proposed four criteria for establishing the grade evaluation method of decoction pieces, namely universality, comprehensiveness, reliability and convenience, in order to establish a more reasonable and unified grade standard for decoction pieces and promote the quality improvement of decoction pieces and the development of the industry.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.
