ObjectiveThis study aims to explore the molecular mechanism of endometrial cell senescence during the window of implantation （WOI） in unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion （URSA） and the intervention effect of Bushen Huoxue method through the integrated research strategy of bioinformatics， machine learning， and animal experiments. MethodThe microarray gene sets of the endometrium of healthy women of childbearing age and patients with URSA during WOI were retrieved through the gene expression omnibus （GEO） database. The differentially expressed genes （DEGs） of URSA were screened by using the limma package of R language. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis （WGCNA） was used to obtain the most relevant module genes of URSA， and the gene ontology （GO） enrichment analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis were performed. Gene sets related to cell senescence were obtained by the Human Gene Database （GeneCards） and Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man （OMIM）. The Venn online mapping software was used to screen the intersection genes of DEGs of URSA， the most relevant module genes， and the genes related to cell senescence. Then， the search tool for the retrieval of interacting genes/proteins （STRING） was used to analyze the protein-protein interaction （PPI） network of the interacting genes， and the hub genes were screened through Cytohubba. In addition， the least absolute selection and shrinkage operator （LASSO） and random forest algorithm were used to screen diagnostic genes related to cell senescence of URSA. Finally， mouse models with URSA were established and randomly divided into the model group， Bushen Huoxue group， and aspirin group， with six mice in each group， and six normal pregnant mice were selected as a blank group. The Bushen Huoxue group was given Shoutai pill combined with Danggui powder formula granular liquid （12.35 g·kg^-1） by gavage， and the aspirin group was gavaged with aspirin at a dose of 0.011 mL·g^-1. The blank group and model group were given the same volume of distilled water by gavage. Drug administration began on the first day after the discovery of vaginal thrombus （recorded as the first day of gestation， i.e. GD1）， and the mice were sacrificed 12 hours after administration at GD5. The endometrium samples were collected. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） and immunofluorescence were used to detect the expression of cell senescence-related diagnostic genes in the endometrium tissue of URSA mice during WOI and the intervention effect of the Bushen Huoxue method. ResultThe gene set of the GSE165004 microarray was included for bioinformatics analysis. According to the “limma” package of R language， 585 DEGs of URSA were selected （P<0.05）. WGCNA results suggested that the gene in the magenta module was the most closely related to URSA （r=0.32， P<0.05）. The results of the KEGG analysis of the magenta module suggested that the genes were mainly enriched in cell senescence， Hippo， and NF-κB signaling pathways （P<0.05）. In addition， 2 138 genes related to cell senescence were obtained from Genecards and OMIM websites. The Venn online mapping tool was used to obtain 27 intersecting genes of DEGs of URSA， the magenta module genes， and cell senescence-related genes， namely， cell senescence-related DEGs in endometrium tissue during WOI of URSA. PPI analysis showed that synuclein alpha （SNCA）， heme oxygenase 1 （HOMX1）， and matrix metallopeptidase 1 （MMP1） were hub genes. Besides， four diagnostic genes were identified by LASSO regression and random forest， including gelsolin （GSN）， cyclin2 （CCND2）， RB binding protein 8 （RBBP8）， and lysophosphatidic acid receptor 1 （LPAR1）. Animal experiments confirmed that the mRNA level and fluorescence intensity of GSN were significantly increased （P<0.05）， while the mRNA and fluorescence intensity of CCND2， LPAR1， and RBBP8 were significantly decreased （P<0.05） in the model group when compared with the blank group. The expression level of GSN was decreased （P<0.05）， while the expression levels of CCND2， LPAR1， and RBBP8 were remarkably increased （P<0.05） in the Bushen Huoxue group when compared with the model group. ConclusionThe senescence of endometrial cells during WOI of URSA is related to multiple genes. Bushen Huoxue method can act on multiple targets that are related to cell senescence， which may be the key mechanism of improving endometrial receptivity in URSA.

Objective To explore the imaging manifestations of ectopic pancreas based on endoscopic findings in order to find out the causes of miss diagnosis and to improve the diagnostic accuracy.Methods The clinical and CT imaging data of ectopic pancreas patients who underwent CT examination and confirmed by endoscopy and pathology microscopy at Air Force Medical Center from July 2018 to March 2023 were collected.Their im-aging characteristics were analyzed according to the endoscopic findings and the miss diagnosis was analyzed.Results There were 13 patients with ectopic pancreas and 3 of them had no obvious symptoms.Ten patients presented with gastrointestinal symptoms,including epigastric discomfort and pain,incomplete obstruction,and melena.Lesion sites:8 cases were located in the gastric antrum and 5 cases were located in the small in-testine.In this group,two patients showed apical erosions and glandular opening-like depressions on endoscop-ic results,but only one patient showed a"ductal sign"shown by CT scanning.None of the 13 patients in this group made ectopic pancreatic diagnosis on imaging,of which 4 were diagnosed as thickening of the gastroin-testinal tract wall,3 were diagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumor,3 were diagnosed as benign tumors and 3 had no obvious abnormalities.Conclusions The imaging diagnosis of ectopic pancreas should be made by closely combinating with the results of endoscopy to improve the accuracy of imaging diagnosis.CT is of great significance for the diagnosis of ectopic pancreas,and adequate preparation before gastrointestinal examination is an important step to avoid misdiagnosis.

This study aims to construct C57/B6-L and A549 cell lines that stably overexpress circu-lar RNA LAMP3(circLAMP3),laying the foundation for further research on the biological func-tions of circLAMP3.Total RNA was extracted and reverse transcripted into cDNA from C57/B6-L and A549 cells to amplify the full-length sequence of circLAMP3.Then,the fragments of cir-cLAMP3 were ligated into pLC5-ciR vector to obtain pLC5-Mouse-circLAMP3 and pLC5-Human-circLAMP3 recombinant plasmids.The lentiviruses expressing circLAMP3 were packaged on tran-sient transfected HEK293T cells.C57/B6-L and A549 cells were infected with lentiviruses to gen-erate cell lines overexpressing circLAMP3 through puromycin screening.To verify the overexpres-sion efficiency of circLAMP3 of cell lines,we performed the fluorescence microscopy,PCR amplifi-cation,quantitative PCR(qPCR),and Sanger sequencing experiments.The results indicated that the overexpression plasmids of pLC5-Mouse-circLAMP3 and pLC5-Human-circLAMP3 were suc-cessfully constructed.Strong green fluorescence was observed under a fluorescence microscopy.C57/B6-L and A549 cell lines showed a significant increase in the expression of circLAMP3 by PCR and qPCR methods.Sanger sequencing results showed that the junction site of circLAMP3 was correct.This study successfully constructed C57/B6-L and A549 cell lines overexpressing circLAMP3,providing biomaterials for further exploration of the biological function of circLAMP3 in influenza virus replication.

Objective To detect and analyze the drug resistance characteristics,phylogenetic typing,and virulence gene distribution of Escherichia coli(E.coli)in blood culture.Methods The strains of E.coli isolated from consecutive non-repetitive blood cultures in our hospital from January 1,2019 to December 13,2020 were collected.The sensitivity of E.coli to 17 antibiotics was determined u-sing the micro-broth method.The bacterial genomic DNA was extracted using the boiling method,and then the arpA,chuA,yjaA,TspE4C2,ArpAgpE and trpAgpC genes were detected by PCR to determine the bacterial phylogroup.The virulence genes,including iutA,fimH,fyuA,kpsMT Ⅱ,cnf1,cvac,hlyA,traT,kpsMT Ⅲ,and PAI,were detected using the multiplex PCR.The differences in drug resistance and virulence gene distribution among different phylogroups were analyzed by the Chi-square test.Results 270 strains of E.coli in blood culture showed high resistance rates to ceftriaxone,compound sulfamethoxazole,ampicillin,ampicillin sulbactam,cefazolin,and ciprofloxacin,all exceeding 50.0％.They had good susceptibility to imipenem,ertapenem,amikacin,and piperacillin tazobactam,with resistance rates all below 5.0％.The most common phylogroups were types B2 and D,accounting for 38.0％and 16.2％,respectively,while type E and hidden branch type I were relatively rare,accounting for less than 1.0％.The virulence gene analysis revealed that the distribution rates of fimH and fyuA genes were the highest,both above 99.0％.The distribution rates of kpsMT Ⅲ,hlyA,and cvaC genes were relatively low,all below 20.0％.The Chi-square test showed that the distribution rates of viru-lence genes such as iutA,fimH,fyuA,kpsMT Ⅱ,cnf1,and PAI in the B2 group were significantly higher than those in the non-B2 group(P<0.05).The distribution rates of iutA,fyuA,kpsMT Ⅱ,cnf1,and PAI genes in the B2 group were significantly higher than those in the D group(P<0.05).Conclusion When treating bloodstream infections caused by E.coli,caution should be exercised in the use of drugs such as ceftriaxone,compound sulfamethoxazole,ampicillin,ampicillin sulbactam,cefazolin,and ciprofloxacin.When bloodstream infections are caused by phylogroup B2 E.coli,middle-stream urine culture should be performed simultaneously to confirm the source of infection and monitor the success rate of treatment.

Objective To screen the influencing factors of hepatitis C cirrhosis patients progressing to hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)using commonly used laboratory testing indicators,establish a prediction model using these indicators and validate them.Methods A total of 231 patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis and 179 patients with hepatitis C HCC hospitalized at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University between June 2020 and May 2023 were enrolled as the training set,and 105 patients with hepatitis C cirrhosis and 86 patients with hepatitis C HCC hospitalized between June 2023 and February 2024 were enrolled as the validation set.The routine laboratory test indexes of the study subjects in the two groups within the training set were compared,and logistic regression analysis was applied to screen the independent predictors of hepatocellular carcinoma occurrence.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to construct the curve model and validate the model.Results The age,male ratio,ALT,AST,AFP,WBC,NEU,MO,PLT,MPV,PDW,Fbg,NLR and PLR levels of the HCC group were higher than those of the cirrhosis group in the training set(H=-9.07～-2.19),while the levels of INR and LMR were lower than those of the cirrhosis group(H=-4.49,-2.65),and the differences were significant(all P＜0.05).The differences in TP,eGFR,LY and AST/ALT values between the two groups of patients were not significant(H=-1.46～-0.15,all P＞0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=1.048,95％CI:1.023～1.074),Male(OR=1.467,95％CI:1.413～1.765),AST(OR=1.010,95％CI:1.002～1.019),NEU(OR=1.186,95％CI:1.018～1.382)and Fbg(OR=2.245,95％CI:1.639～3.076)were independent risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma patients(all P＜0.05),and these five independent risk factors were used to construct the HCC column-line graph prediction model,with the AUC for the training set and the validation set AUC(95％Cl)were 0.813(0.771～0.854)and 0.712(0.639～0.784),respectively,and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed a good fit of the model with P=0.650 for the training set and P=0.310 for the validation set.Conclusion The prediction model of HCC based on age,gender,AST,NEU and Fbg can have good predictive efficacy and clinical application value.

ObjectiveTo understand the current research status, research hotspots and development trends of constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) in the field of rehabilitation. MethodsThe relevant articles of CIMT in rehabilitation from January, 2000 to October, 2022 in CNKI and Web of Science were retrieved. The authors, institutions, countries, keywords and burst words were extracted with CiteSpace 6.1.R3 to draw knowledge mapping. ResultsA total of 1 165 articles were included, 359 articles in Chinese and 806 in English. The trend of annual publications was generally consistent, and after a period of rapid growth, the current annual publications showed a fluctuating trend. There was more cooperation among the institutions in English articles, with geographical limitation. The institutions in Chinese articles had the problem of insufficient cooperation. The researches mainly focused on the application of CIMT in different diseases, the improvement of motor function by CIMT, the application of CIMT in combination with other therapies, and the study of the related mechanisms of CIMT. In recent years, Chinese burst keywords included modified constraint-induced movement therapy, stroke hemiparesis, clinical efficacy and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation; English burst keywords included transcranial direct current stimulation, non-invasive brain stimulation, and unilateral cerebral palsy. ConclusionResearch on CIMT in the field of rehabilitation is in a period of steady development, and CIMT combined with non-invasive brain stimulation is likely to be a hotspot in future research.

Hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)is the third leading cause of cancer death worldwide.Ginsenoside Rk3,an important and rare saponin in heat-treated ginseng,is generated from Rg1 and has a smaller mo-lecular weight.However,the anti-HCC efficacy and mechanisms of ginsenoside Rk3 have not yet been characterized.Here,we investigated the mechanism by which ginsenoside Rk3,a tetracyclic triterpenoid rare ginsenoside,inhibits the growth of HCC.We first explored the possible potential targets of Rk3 through network pharmacology.Both in vitro(HepG2 and HCC-LM3 cells)and in vivo(primary liver cancer mice and HCC-LM3 subcutaneous tumor-bearing mice)studies revealed that Rk3 significantly inhibits the proliferation of HCC.Meanwhile,Rk3 blocked the cell cycle in HCC at the G1 phase and induced autophagy and apoptosis in HCC.Further proteomics and siRNA experiments showed that Rk3 regulates the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(AKT)pathway to inhibit HCC growth,which was validated by molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance.In conclusion,we report the discovery that ginsenoside Rk3 binds to PI3K/AKT and promotes autophagy and apoptosis in HCC.Our data strongly support the translation of ginsenoside Rk3 into novel PI3K/AKT-targeting ther-apeutics for HCC treatment with low toxic side effects.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of non-pharmaceutical intervention on improving sleep quality in pregnant women by network Meta-analysis.Methods:Randomized controlled clinical trials on non-pharmaceutical intervention to improve sleep quality in pregnant women were searched on Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, China Biology Medicine disc, CNKI and Wanfang Database by computer, and the search time limit was from the establishment of databases to December 2022. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data and evaluated the risk of bias in the included studies. Stata 14.0 software was used to conduct a network meta-analysis.Results:Finally, a total of 26 randomized controlled trial were included, including 2 363 patients and 7 non-pharmaceutical intervention measures. The best probability ranking results of network meta-analysis showed that in terms of total score evaluation of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, relaxation intervention, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, psychological intervention, exercise intervention, music therapy, sleep health education and routine nursing were ranked from high to low. In terms of dimensional evaluation of Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, relaxation intervention, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, psychological intervention and music therapy had better effects.Conclusions:Current evidence suggests that relaxation intervention, traditional Chinese medicine treatment, psychological intervention and music therapy may be more effective interventions in improving the sleep quality of pregnant women.
