BACKGROUND:Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important treatment for malignant hematological diseases,and delayed postoperative platelet implantation is a common complication that seriously affects the quality of patient survival;however,there are no standard protocols to improve platelet implantation rates and prevent platelet implantation delays. OBJECTIVE:To compare the safety and efficacy of oral Herombopag Olamine versus subcutaneous recombinant human thrombopoietin for promoting platelet implantation in patients with malignant hematological diseases undergoing haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS:Clinical data of 163 patients with malignant hematological diseases who underwent haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from January 2016 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 72 patients who started to subcutaneously inject recombinant human thrombopoietin at+2 days were categorized into the recombinant human thrombopoietin group;a total of 27 patients who started to orally take Herombopag Olamine at+2 days were categorized into the Herombopag Olamine group;and 64 patients who did not apply Herombopag Olamine or recombinant human thrombopoietin were categorized into the blank control group.The implantation status,incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease of degree II-IV within 100 days,1-year survival rate,1-year recurrence rate,and safety were analyzed in the three groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The average follow-up time was 52(12-87)months.The implantation time of neutrophils in the blank control group,recombinant human thrombopoietin group,and Herombopag Olamine group was(12.95±3.88)days,(14.04±3.71)days,and(13.89±2.74)days,respectively,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.352);the implantation time of platelets was(15.16±6.27)days,(17.67±6.52)days,and(17.00±4.75)days,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.287).(2)The complete platelet implantation rate on day 60 was 64.06%,90.28%,and 92.59%,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).The subgroup analysis showed that the difference between the blank control group and the recombinant human thrombopoietin group was statistically significant(P<0.001),and the difference between the blank control group and the Herombopag Olamine group was statistically significant(P=0.004).The difference was not statistically significant between the recombinant human thrombopoietin group and Herombopag Olamine group(P=0.535).(3)100-day II-IV degree acute graft-versus-host disease incidence in the blank control group,recombinant human thrombopoietin group,and Herombopag Olamine group were 25.00%,30.56%,and 25.93%,respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.752).(4)The incidence of cytomegalovirus anemia,cytomegalovirus pneumonia,and hepatic function injury had no statistical difference among the three groups(P>0.05).(5)During the follow-up period,there was no thrombotic event in any of the three groups of patients.(6)The results showed that recombinant human thrombopoietin and Herombopag Olamine could improve the platelet implantation rate of malignant hematological disease patients after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,with comparable efficacy and good safety.

Objective Discuss the safety and effectiveness of flow diverter device and traditional stent inthetreatment of unruptured ophthalmic segment aneurysms.Methods A retrospective analysis from January 2017 to January 2023 was performed on the clinical data of 70 cases of unruptured aneurysms in the Department of Neurosurgery of Southern Theater General Hospital treated with stent-assisted embolization.According to the type of implanted stents,theywere divided into flow diverter device group(n = 21)and traditional stent group(n = 49),and the postoperative clinical effects and complications of the two groups were compared.Results The two groups of patients followed 3 to 24 months,with an average of(14.4±1.82)months.The results of periopera-tive and follow-up showed that the inclusion rate was higher in the flow diverter device group and the traditional stent group(93.3%vs.87.9%),with no significant difference(P>0.05),and the incidence of perioperative and short-term complications was lower(0 vs.6.1%)in the flow diverter device group than in the traditional stent group,and there currencies rate in the flow diverter device group was lower than that in the traditional stent group(0 vs.6.1%),but the difference was not significant(P>0.05).Conclusion Flow diverter devices and traditional stents in the treatment of unruptured ophthalmic segment aneurysmsare feasible,safe and effective.Preliminary results suggest that the incidence of short-term complications and retreatment is lower after treatment with flow diverter devices,and the operation time is short,but further studies are needed to validate long-term complica-tions in patients.

Objective:To investigate the impact of a pain management model based on clinical pathway (CP) refinement on postoperative pain relief, recovery, and cognitive function in patients undergoing orthopedic joint surgery.Methods:A total of 150 orthopedic joint surgery patients admitted to Handan Central Hospital from February 2018 to January 2021 were selected. They were randomly divided into an observation group (treated with a pain management model based on CP refinement) and a control group (treated with conventional pain management) using a random number table method, with 75 patients in each group. We compared the differences in pain relief, recovery, cognitive function, and postoperative complication rates between two groups of patients.Results:The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores of the observation group patients at 2, 6, 12, and 24 hours after surgery were lower than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). 24 hours after surgery, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) scores of both groups of patients decreased compared to before treatment, and the angle of straight leg elevation test increased compared to before treatment (all P<0.05). In addition, the JOA scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group, and the angle of straight leg elevation test was greater than that of the control group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). 24 hours after surgery, the Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) scores of both groups of patients increased (all P<0.05), and the MMSE scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The analgesic model based on CP refined management has improved the postoperative analgesic effect, recovery, and cognitive function of patients undergoing orthopedic joint surgery. It is recommended to promote it clinically.

The SRPX2 protein is a secreted protein associated with the development of the nervous system，playing a particularly important role in language development.In childhood，language developmental disorders can severely affect children's physical and mental development，and often coexist with delayed intellectual development.Currently，mutations in this gene are not common in humans.The gene is located on the X chromosome，and both males with mutations and female carriers may develop symptoms；the severity of these symptoms ars not entirely correlated with the location of the mutation.The SRPX2 gene forms a language pathway with the uPAR and FOXP2 genes，affecting language development.Additionally，SRPX2 gene mutations affect the migration of cortical neurons and complement-mediated synaptic elimination.Mutations in the SRPX2 gene that have been reported to date can lead to epilepsy，delayed language development，intellectual disability，autism，microcephaly，polymicrogyria，and hearing impairment，among other conditions.This article reviews the role of SRPX2 in the development of the nervous system and related diseases.

Lactic acid bacteria(LAB)were isolated and cultivated from the intestinal contents of rabbits by MRS-CaCO3 solid medium.Identification was achieved through morphological observa-tion,Gram staining,physiological and biochemical characterisation,16S rDNA sequence analysis,and ERIC-PCR analysis.Strains displaying typical Lactobacilli characteristics were exanimated for their biological characteristics,resistance properties,adherence capacity in vitro,colonization abili-ty in vivo,and safety profile.In this study,a total of four strains of Lactobacillus reuteri were iso-lated from rabbits,all of which exhibited typical biological characteristics of LAB.These strains demonstrated inhibitory effects on common pathogenic bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract,with the primary inhibitory substance being bacteriocin.Furthermore,they showed sensitivity to chlor-amphenicol,rifampicin,and erythromycin,and displayed a degree of tolerance to gastrointestinal conditions and high temperature.These stains were capable of successful colonization in rabbits with a higher degree of safety.This study lays a foundation for the development of LAB prepara-tions for the prevention and treatment of rabbit intestinal diseases.

Objective:To study the life characteristics and related risk factors of patients with depression in Shandong Province.Methods:Based on the 2015 mental epidemiological survey database in Shandong Province,a total of 832 patients with depression,807 high-risk individuals with depression,and 819 low-risk individuals were diagnosed according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fourth Edition(DSM-Ⅳ)and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-Ⅳ-TR Axis I Disorders,Research Version(SCID-I/P).In 2020,SCID-I/P was used for re diagnosis,and the General Health Questionnaire(GHQ-12),Simple Quality of Life question-naire,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ),Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS),Global Pain Scale(GPS),Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA),Simplified Coping Style Question-naire(SCSQ)were used for evaluation.Compare changes in the quality of life of depression patients and construct a risk factor model.Results:Patients with depression had lower scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those in the high-and low-risk groups,those in remission of depression had higher scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those in non-re-mission,and those with new-onset disorder in the high-and low-risk groups had lower scores on the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline and at retest after 5 years than those with no-onset disorder(Ps＜0.001).Depres-sion diagnosis and PSQI scale scores at baseline negatively predicted at retest after 5 years(β=-0.06,-0.15),while coping style tendencies at baseline positively predicted(β=0.06).The simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline negatively predicted depression diagnosis at retest after 5 years,GHQ-12 scores at retest after 5 years,and PSQI scale scores at retest after 5 years(β=-0.11,-0.17,-0.09),while the simple quality of life question-naire at baseline positively predicted coping style tendencies at retest after 5 years(β=0.13).Depression diagnosis at retest after 5 years,GHQ-12 scores at retest after 5 years,PSQI scale scores at retest after 5 years,coping style tendencies at retest after 5 years,SSRS scale scores,CTQ scale scores,GPS scale scores,and the simple quality of life questionnaire at baseline all influenced the simple quality of life questionnaire at retest after 5 years through ei-ther direct or indirect pathways.Conclusion:It suggest that the quality of life is lower in patients with depression than in the general population.Depression diagnosis,sleep,mental health,pain,social support,childhood trauma and coping are direct and indirect risk factors affecting life.

The four properties of Chinese herbal medicine have a history of several thousand years and are one of the important theoretical guides for the clinical application of Chinese herbal medicine. However， there have been few reviews of research methods and techniques for the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine in recent years. Therefore， this article summarized the advances and techniques for the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine by screening relevant literature on the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine and clarifying the characteristics， advantages， and applicable objects of each technique， in order to provide references for in-depth research on the four properties in the future. Chinese databases such as China national knowledge infrastructure （CNKI）， Wanfang data， and VIP， as well as international databases including PubMed， Cochrane Library， and EMbase were searched for relevant literature on the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine. The advances， research objects， and research techniques involved in the literature were extracted， classified， and summarized. Currently， the research techniques for the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine mainly include six categories， i.e.， literature data research， network pharmacology， biothermodynamics， cell biology， proteomics， and metabolomics. The research hierarchy can be divided into micro-level， small-level， medium-level， and macro-level. The research objects used in each experimental study are different， mainly single Chinese herbal medicine， Chinese herbal monomers， targets， microbial communities， cells， mice， and rats. Different research techniques explain the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine from different dimensions， which overall indicate the material basis of the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine. In future research， the interpretation of the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine can be first located at the research hierarchy， then corresponding research techniques can be selected according to the research hierarchy， and research indicators can be determined to obtain research conclusions. This can help researchers of traditional Chinese medicine effectively carry out research design and perform related experiments on the four properties of Chinese herbal medicine.

ObjectiveTo clone coumarate-3-hydroxylase gene （C3H） from Angelica sinensis， and analyze the correlation between its bioinformatics， expression patterns and content of ferulic acid， and to explore the functions of ASC3H. MethodReal-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to clone the full-length cDNA of ASC3H based on the transcriptome dataset of A. sinensis， and the bioinformatics analysis of the gene sequence was carried out. Real-time PCR and high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） were used to determine relative expression of ASC3H and content of ferulic acid in different root tissues of A. sinensis （periderm， cortex and stele）. ResultThe open reading frame （ORF） of ASC3H （GenBank accession number： MN2550298） was 1 530 bp， encoding 509 amino acids， with a theoretical molecular weight of 57.86 kDa and an isoelectric point of 8.36. It was a hydrophilic protein that was located in the chloroplast with multiple phosphorylation sites and a transmembrane region， and contained a conserved domain CGYDWPKGYGPIINVW_P450 （383-399 aa） in cytochrome P450. Multiple amino acid sequence alignment analysis showed that ASC3H had high similarity with C3H from other plants， especially Ammi majus in Umbelliferae. The Real-time PCR revealed that ASC3H had different expressions in periderm， cortex and stele tissues of A. sinensis roots. It was found from HPLC that the cortex tissues had the highest content of ferulic acid， and the stele tissues had the lowest. ConclusionASC3H was successfully cloned from A. sinensis， and its sequence characteristics were understood more clearly， suggesting that ASC3H might be involved in the ferulic acid biosynthesis pathway of A. sinensis. This paper provided a basis for further studying the functions of the gene and exploring the biosynthesis and regulation mechanism of ferulic acid in A. sinensis， while laying the foundation for the genetic improvement of A. sinensis．

Arsenic is an environmental toxicant widely present in nature, which can enter the human body through drinking water, respiration, and skin contact. The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an important barrier that restricts the entry of toxins, metabolites, and other substances in the blood into the brain, thereby maintaining the homeostasis of the brain microenvironment. Different forms of arsenic may cross BBB in different ways, resulting in cognitive dysfunction in humans or animals. Therefore, BBB may play an important role in arsenic-induced cognitive dysfunction. This article provides a brief overview of the structure and function of the BBB, the transport mode of the BBB, experimental methods for evaluating the integrity of the BBB, and the relationship between arsenic-induced cognitive dysfunction and the integrity of the BBB. It provides reference for the subsequent search for the way arsenic passes through the BBB, and the determination of the role and mechanism of BBB damage in arsenic induced cognitive dysfunction.

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitor associated pneumonia (CIP) is a serious side effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors. There is a consensus on the treatment of acute phase of CIP, but the treatment of pulmonary interstitial fibrosis after the acute phase is still a clinical problem to be solved. METHODS: The diagnosis and treatment of a non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patient with immune checkpoint inhibitor associated pneumonia in the Stereotactic Radiotherapy Department of Qingdao Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and literatures were reviewed. RESULTS: A 70-year-old male patient was diagnosed with Poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of left lung with mediastinal lymph node metastasis T3N3M0 stage IIIc, EGFR/ALK/ROS1/RAF negative, PD-L1 (22c3) immunohistochemistry negative. After the progression of first-line chemotherapy, the patient was diagnosed as immune checkpoint inhibitor associated pneumonia grade 3 during second-line monotherapy with Nivolumab. After initial high-dose glucocorticoid pulse therapy, the lung computed tomography (CT) imaging and clinical symptoms of the patients were partially relieved, and then pirfenidone (300 mg tid) was given orally for more than 11 months. During the treatment of pirfenidone, the CT imaging and clinical symptoms of the patients were significantly improved, and there were no other adverse reactions except grade 1 nausea. During this period, chemotherapy and Anlotinib was given concurrently with pirfenidone and showed good safety profile. CONCLUSIONS This case report is the first report of pirfenidone in the treatment of CIP, which provides a new idea for the clinical practice and research of CIP treatment.
