ObjectiveBased on the AMP-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） signaling pathway， this study aimed to observe the effect of the Huazhuo Jiedu prescription on renal fibrosis in 5/6 nephrectomy rats and explore its underlying mechanism. MethodsA total of 67 SPF-grade male SD rats were used， of which 11 were randomly selected as the normal group. A chronic renal failure （CRF） model was established using 5/6 nephrectomy. The successfully modeled rats were randomly assigned to the model group， losartan potassium group （4.5 mg·kg^-1）， and low- （1.175 g·kg^-1）， medium- （2.35 g·kg^-1） and high-dose （4.7 g·kg^-1） Huazhuo Jiedu prescription groups， with 9 rats per group. Each group received an equivalent volume of saline or the corresponding concentration of Huazhuo Jiedu prescription by gavage once daily for 8 weeks. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） and Masson staining were used to observe renal tissue pathological changes. Transmission electron microscopy examined renal ultrastructure. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） detected expressions of α-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA） and transforming growth factor-β₁ （TGF-β₁）. Western blot analyzed expression levels of microtubule-associated protein Ⅰ light chain 3Ⅱ （LC3Ⅱ）， Beclin1， p62， AMPK， phosphorylated AMPK （p-AMPK）， mTOR， and phosphorylated mTOR （p-mTOR）. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group exhibited glomerular shrinkage， mesangial and interstitial thickening， and tubular vacuolar degeneration， with no evident autophagosomes or autophagolysosome structures. Expression levels of α-SMA and TGF-β₁ were significantly increased （P0.01）， while p-AMPK/AMPK， Beclin1， and LC3Ⅱ were significantly decreased （P0.01）， and p-mTOR/mTOR and p62 were significantly increased （P0.01）. Compared with the model group， the medium- and high-dose Huazhuo Jiedu prescription groups and the losartan potassium group showed varying degrees of pathological improvement. Autophagosomes with double- or multiple-layer membranes and autophagolysosomes with monolayer membranes containing undegraded organelles were observed. Renal α-SMA and TGF-β₁ protein expression levels were markedly reduced （P0.05， P0.01）， p-mTOR/mTOR and p62 were significantly decreased （P0.05， P0.01）， and p-AMPK/AMPK， Beclin1， and LC3Ⅱ expression levels were significantly increased （P0.05， P0.01）. ConclusionHuazhuo Jiedu prescription may improve renal fibrosis in 5/6 nephrectomy rats by regulating the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway and enhancing autophagy.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma incompatible pair with the Haizao Yuhutang （HYT） on oxidative stress in the liver of goiter rats under the condition of 2 times the dose limit of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China 2020. MethodA total of 128 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a blank group， a model group， a euthyrox group （20 μg·kg^-1）， a HYT group （12.06 g·kg^-1）， a HYT without Sargassum （HYT-H） group （9.90 g·kg^-1）， a HYT without Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （HYT-G） group （10.26 g·kg^-1）， a HYT without Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （HYT-HG） group （8.10 g·kg^-1）， and a Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （HG） group （3.96 g·kg^-1）. The blank group was given deionized water by gavage， and the others were given propylthiouracil （PTU） to replicate the goiter pathological model. Euthyrox was taken as a positive control drug， and the rest of the Chinese medicine groups were given the corresponding decoction by gavage， the material was collected 12 hours after the last dose. The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， and the contents of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， reactive oxygen species （ROS） in liver tissue were detected in each group. The pathological changes in the liver were observed via hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was utilized to detect the mRNA expressions of Kelch-like Ech-associated protein 1 （Keap1）， nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， p53 and Caspase-3 in liver tissues. Western blot was adopted to detect the protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 in liver tissues in oxidative stress-related signaling pathways. ResultCompared with control group， the model group showed significantly increased serum ALT level and contents of MDA and ROS in liver tissues （P<0.05， P<0.01）， significantly reduced activities of SOD and GSH-Px in the liver （P<0.01）， significantly increased mRNA expression of Keap1 （P<0.01）， and significantly decreased mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the HYT group manifested significantly reduced serum levels of AST， ALT， and ALP （P<0.05， P<0.01）， significantly reduced contents of MDA and ROS in liver tissue （P<0.01）， significantly increased the activities of SOD and GSH-Px （P<0.01）， significantly decreased mRNA expressions of Keap1， p53， and Caspase-3 （P<0.01）， and significantly increased mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionUnder the condition of 2 times the dose limit of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China 2020， Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma incompatible pair with the HYT on oxidative stress in the liver of goiter rats had different effects. The HYT that contains Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma has a protective effect on the liver of goiter rats， and the effect is better than that of the HG group， the euthyrox group， and the incomplete groups. Its mechanism may be related to activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway to alleviate liver oxidative stress and inhibiting the p53/Caspase-3 signaling pathway to reduce hepatocyte apoptosis.

IgA nephropathy is a common primary glomerular disease.Its pathogenesis is currently unclear.As an autoimmune disease, immune response is a key link in the onset of IgA nephropathy.Multiple immune cells are involved in the occurrence and development of IgA nephropathy.The impacts of different cell subpopulations of innate and adaptive immunity can lead to sustained immune damage directly or indirectly.This article elaborates on the role of immune cells in IgA nephropathy from two aspects, namely innate immunity and adaptive immunity, aiming to provide references for further research on IgA nephropathy.

Objective: To explore the association between parental education level and time spent outdoors among children, so as to provide the scientific evidence for formulating policies of myopia prevention and control among children. Methods: The study was based on secondary analysis of data from outdoor intervention studies in Shanghai. The follow up period was from March to December 2018. It included control group children ( n =1 117) with complete questionnaire surveys, ocular examinations, and time spent outdoors. Generalized linear regression models and trend tests were used to analyze the effect of parental education level on time spent outdoors among children. Results: The median time spent outdoors was 76.4(59.7, 94.6) minutes. After adjusting for covariates including children s sex and age, generalized linear regression model suggested that there was no statistical significance between father s education level and outdoor activity time ( P >0.05). Compared with children whose mothers had a junior high school education or below, children whose mothers had high school/vocational high school education, college or above had shorter time spent outdoors ( β=-6.64, -8.84 , P <0.05). Trend tests revealed that time spent outdoors among children decreased with the increase of parental education level ( P trend <0.01). Conclusions The higher the education level of fathers or mothers, the shorter time spent outdoors of children. In addition to highlight outdoor activities at school, myopia prevention and control efforts should be focused on the role of parents in increasing children s outdoor activities.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of intranasal branches neurotomy of vidian nerve in the treatment of persistent moderate to severe allergic rhinitis. METHODS Cases diagnosed as persistent moderate-severe allergic rhinitis in our department were collected. those treated with branches neurotomy of vidian nerve were selected as the treatment group,and those treated with conservative medicine were selected as the control group. The visual analogue scale(VAS),rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ),Nitric oxide in nose(nNO) and medication score evaluation of two groups of cases were evaluated respectively short-term(<1 year),medium-term(1 to 3 years) and long-term prognosis of outcome(3 to 5 years). RESULTS The short-term,mid-term and long-term postoperative VAS(2.26±0.75,2.30±0.63,2.49±0.57),RQLQ(0.55±0.11,0.55±0.11,1.00±0.12),nNO[(464.62±75.84)ppb,(378.63±110.21)ppb,(368.23±104.25)ppb]and medication scores (2.50±1.03,2.54±0.99,2.95±0.93) were significantly lower than those before operation[6.76±0.58,3.35±0.40,(696.64±132.69)ppb,5.17±1.50)]. The VAS,RQLQ,nNO and medication scores of the control group were lower than those of the control group at the corresponding time points(all P<0.05). One patient developed blindness in the right eye after interventional treatment due to epistaxis 21 days after operation,but no serious complications directly related to intranasal branches neurotomy of vidian nerve occurred. CONCLUSION The branches neurotomy of vidian nerve have a positive outcome in short,medium and long-term for persistent moderate to severe allergic rhinitis,the operation is safe and effective.

Salmonella is an important foodborne pathogen and one of the main causes of diarrhea. Every year, about 550 million people suffer from diarrhea due to Salmonella infection, of which about 230 000 die. It has become a major global public safety issue. The application fields of Salmonella detection involve food safety, water quality monitoring, animal husbandry, public health monitoring, and medical diagnosis. The detection requirements mainly come from three aspects: pathogen identification, serotype identification, drug resistance and virulence identification. In recent years, the detection technology for Salmonella has made rapid progress, especially the emergence and development of emerging molecular detection technologies, providing new perspectives for Salmonella detection in different scenarios. However, due to the diversity of Salmonella serotypes and the complexity of detection scenarios, existing detection technologies still have some pain points (such as long detection time, cumbersome operation steps, low scene adaptability, etc.). This article will elaborate on the application of several emerging molecular detection technologies with distinct characteristics, such as CRISPR Cas technology, digital PCR technology, sequencing technology, and microfluidic technology, in Salmonella detection. It aims to provide a reference for the development and improvement of Salmonella detection technology and the establishment of infection warning and control systems.

Objective To evaluate the second catalog of the key monitoring and rational use drugs(KMRUD),and to provide a reference framework for medical institutions to develop their own KMRUD catalogs and management policies.Methods A comprehensive search on official websites of national and provincial health administrative departments was conducted using the keywords"key monitoring","rational drug use",and"the second catalog".Announced catalogs and related policy documents pertaining to KMRUD use were collected and systematically organized.Comparative analyses were performed between the national KMRUD catalogs of the first and second batches,as well as between the second batch of provincial KMRUD catalogs and the national standard.Additionally,the adoption and variation of national KMRUD drug management policies across provinces,as well as the uniformity and divergence of provincial KMRUD management policies,were examined.Results The second national KMRUD catalog maintained 7 drug varieties from the first batch,eliminated 13,and introduced 23 new varieties.Of the 24 surveyed provinces,9 modified their provincial catalogs relative to the national second batch KMRUD catalog,resulting in alterations to 66 drug varieties within 10 Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical(ATC)classes,primarily systemic anti-infectives.Several provinces,including Xinjiang,Inner Mongolia,Liaoning,Shanghai,and Qinghai,implemented additional management measures such as the establishment of clinical application guidelines and the clarification of application conditions and principles.Moreover,provinces like Inner Mongolia,Shandong,Jilin,and Heilongjiang expanded their KMRUD management toolbox by developing drug monitoring indicators.The revision of inclusion rules from the first to the second KMRUD catalog has led to the incorporation of numerous essential clinical drugs.The prior protocol of medical institutions excluding drugs unilaterally is no longer viable,as it may disrupt the standard medication supply,potentially raising treatment costs.Conclusion Medical institutions ought to assimilate the updated implications of KMRUD use,draw on established provincial monitoring and management methodologies,enhance clinical application guidelines,and articulate conditions and principles for clinical use.Furthermore,by employing prescription review mechanisms,in-hospital monitoring,evaluation,and advanced warning systems,medical institutions can strategically oversee KMRUD use.

AIM:To investigate the molecular mechanism of long noncoding RNA(lncRNA)SNHG1 in regu-lating ferroptosis to alleviate inflammation in CHME-5 human microglia induced by HIV-1 gp120 V3 loop.METHODS:CHME-5 human microglia were cultured in vitro,and were divided into 7 groups:blank group,random peptide group,gp120 V3 loop group(HIV-1 gp120 group),HIV-1 gp120+shCon group,HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group,HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+ferrostatin-1(Fer-1;ferroptosis inhibitor)group,and HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+EX527(Sirt1 in-hibitor)group.Normal CHME-5 cells were treated with random peptide or gp120 V3 loop for 24 h.After pretreatment of SNHG1 sh2 cells with inhibitors for 2 h,the cells were then treated with gp120 V3 loop for 24 h.The levels of inflammato-ry cytokines in the cell supernatants were detected by ELISA.Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11),glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),Sirt1 and p53.Microplate reader was used to detect the levels of intracellular ferrous ion(Fe2+)and malondialdehyde(MDA).RESULTS:(1)The results of ELISA showed that the expression levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and IL-1β in HIV-1 gp120 group were significantly higher than those in blank group(P<0.05).Compared with HIV-1 gp120 group,the ex-pression levels of inflammatory cytokines in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group,the expression levels of inflammatory factors in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+Fer-1 were significantly decreased(P<0.05),but those in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+EX527 group were significant-ly increased(P<0.01).(2)The results of Western blot showed that compared with blank group,the expression levels of ferroptosis-related proteins SLC7A11 and GPX4 in HIV-1 gp120 group were significantly down-regulated(P<0.01).Com-pared with HIV-1 gp120 group,the expression levels of SLC7A11 and GPX4 in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group were sig-nificantly up-regulated(P<0.01).Compared with HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group,the expression levels of SLC7A11 and GPX4 in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+Fer-1 group were significantly up-regulated(P<0.05),but the expression levels of SLC7A11 and GPX4 in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+EX527 group were significantly down-regulated(P<0.01),and the expression level of p53 was significantly up-regulated(P<0.05).(3)Compared with blank group,the levels of Fe2+and MDA in HIV-1 gp120 group were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with HIV-1 gp120 group,the levels of Fe2+and MDA in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group were significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2 group,Fe2+and MDA in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+Fer-1 group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),but those in HIV-1 gp120+SNHG1 sh2+EX527 group was significantly increased(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Knockdown of SNHG1 can attenuate the inflammation in microglia induced by HIV-1 gp120 V3 loop,which may be achieved by regulating ferrop-tosis-related signaling molecules through the Sirt1/p53 signaling pathway.

Objective:To survey the child health service capacity of community health service institutions in Shenzhen city.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. An online survey was conducted among 559 community health service centers, stations and clinics in Shenzhen from January 23, 2024 to February 3, 2024. The questionnaire contents included the development of child health management, vaccination, diagnosis and treatment of common diseases in children, management of children′s chronic diseases, appropriate technology, availability of children′s special drug dosage forms, provision of special Chinese patent medicine and appropriate technology of traditional Chinese medicine for children, referral and remote consultation in 2019 and 2023. The reasons of unavailable service items were asked in the questionnaire and the questionnaire also contained an open-ended question about the suggestions for improving the capacity of child health services.Results:A total of 559 valid questionnaires were collected, accounting for 64.48% (559/867) of the community health service centers, stations and health clinics in Shenzhen in 2023. Compared to 2019, there was a significant increase in the rate of pediatric health services provided in 2023, including the diagnosis and treatment of common diseases in children under 6 years (96.06%, 537 institutions), nebulized inhalation therapy (96.60%, 540 institutions), influenza and other respiratory pathogen detection (90.70%, 507 institutions), rotavirus and other intestinal pathogen detection (34.53%, 193 institutions), allergen detection (81.75%, 457 institutions), blood oxygen saturation monitoring (84.44%, 472 institutions), pediatric-specific formulations of Western medicine (90.52%, 506 institutions), pediatric-specific formulations of traditional Chinese medicine (89.27%, 499 institutions), appropriate Chinese medicine techniques (88.19%, 493 institutions), relatively fixed referral hospitals (95.17%, 532 institutions), and remote consultation service (19.14%, 107 institutions); and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01). The reasons for unavailable service items were lack of space and personnel for the basic public health services, lack of space, personnel and a deficiency in knowledge and technical capabilities for diagnostic tests, and lack of equipment and personnel for remote consultation service. Suggestions made by 394 respondent institutions (70.48%) for further improvement included: conducting and strengthening various training (44.42%, 175/394), consultation and teaching by expert visiting (18.53%, 73/394), increasing the space and equipment (9.39%, 37/394), and further study at higher-level units (98.88%, 35/394). Conclusions:The child health services have been greatly improved in community health service institutions in Shenzhen, but there are still rooms for further improvement such as the ability of child health management, vaccination, chronic disease managements and provision of remote consultation.
