Objective: To determine the inhibitory effects of pachymic acid on lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cells and elucidate its underlying mechanism. Methods: CCK-8, wound healing, Transwell, Western blot, tube formation, and immunofluorescence assays were carried out to measure the effects of various concentrations of pachymic acid on LUAD cell proliferation, metastasis, angiogenesis as well as autophagy. Subsequently, molecular docking technology was used to detect the potential targeted binding association between pachymic acid and protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B). Moreover, PTP1B was overexpressed in A549 cells to detect the specific mechanisms of pachymic acid. Results: Pachymic acid suppressed LUAD cell viability, metastasis as well as angiogenesis while inducing cell autophagy. It also targeted PTP1B and lowered PTP1B expression. However, PTP1B overexpression reversed the effects of pachymic acid on metastasis, angiogenesis, and autophagy as well as the expression of Wnt3a and β-catenin in LUAD cells. Conclusions: Pachymic acid inhibits metastasis and angiogenesis, and promotes autophagy in LUAD cells by modulating the Wnt/ β-catenin signaling pathway via targeting PTP1B.

Objective To observe the effect of multi-modal hand hygiene(HH)intervention on HH compliance,as well as the relationship between HH compliance and the healthcare-associated(HA)case infection incidence.Methods From 2014 to 2022,the infection control team in a tertiary first-class hospital implemented multi-modal HH intervention for health care workers(HCWs).The changing trend of HH monitoring data,the correlation be-tween HH compliance rate and HA case infection incidence were analyzed retrospectively.Results The consump-tion of HH products in the wards showed a stable upward trend;HH compliance rate increased from 64.98％in 2014 to 85.01％in 2022(P＜0.001),and HA case infection incidence decreased from 1.21％to 0.83％(P＜0.05).HH compliance rate was negatively correlated with HA case infection incidence(r=-0.369,P=0.027).HH compliance rates in different regions and job posts in each quarter were increased(P＜0.001).For 5 different HH moments in each quarter,HH compliance rate fluctuated slightly before sterile manipulation and after touching patient;presented rising trend after touching surroundings around patient,and decreased before touching patient and after touching patient's body fluid since 2020(P＜0.001).Conclusion Multi-modal HH intervention can im-prove the HH compliance of HCWs,improving their HH awareness is conducive to reducing HA case infection incidence.

Objective To study the common basis and association between sickness behaviour and occurrence of classical symptoms of kidney yang deficiency of rats with adriamycin nephropathy.Methods The SD rats were given adriamycin by tail-vein injection for 2 times(4.0 and 3.5 mg·kg-1,one week apart)to construct the model of nephrotic syndrome with Chinese medicine symptom of kidney yang deficiency.After successful modeling,the model rats were randomly divided into adriamycin group(ADR group),corticosterone group(CORT group)and hydrocortisone group(HYD group),with 12 rats per group;another 12 normal rats were taken as normal group.In the HYD group,25 mg·kg-1·d-1 HYD was administered for 14 d to establish kidney yang deficiency model with simple hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal cortex(HPA)axis inhibition.CORT group was adding 25 μg·mL-1 corticosterone to the water for 6 weeks,and the others drinking water supplied.The levels of urinary 17-hydroxy steroid were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.Glucocorticoid receptor(GR)and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)protein expression levels in kidney and hypothalamus were detected by Western blotting.Results In the normal,ADR,CORT and HYD groups,the urinary 17-hydroxysteroid levels were(19.14±1.94),(10.07±1.62),(20.30±1.55)and(14.23±2.37)μg·L-1;the relative expression levels of GR protein in hypothalamic were 0.63±0.05,0.11±0.05,0.85±0.08 and 0.35±0.06;the relative expression levels of NF-κB protein in hypothalamic were 0.06±0.03,0.96±0.03,0.59±0.01 and 0.23±0.04;the relative expression levels of GR protein in kidney tissue were 0.94±0.06,0.06±0.02,0.40±0.02 and 0.09±0.08;the relative expression levels of NF-κB protein in kidney tissue were 0.07±0.05,0.81±0.12,0.72±0.07 and 0.49±0.08,respectively.Compared with the ADR and HYD groups,the above indexes in the normal group were statistically significant(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).And compared with the ADR group,the relative expression levels of NF-κB protein in renal tissue with CORT group were not statistically significant(P＞0.05),but the other indexes in CORT group were statistically significant(all P＜0.01).Conclusion HPA axis dysfunction with GR damaged and activated inflammatory levels are the common basis for the combination of typical symptoms of kidney yang deficiency and sickness behaviour which characterised by"deficiency and cold syndrome".

A new Schiff base fluorescence probe (E)-3-(4-(E)-((4-hydroxyphenyl) imino) methyl) phenyl)-1-(6-methoxynaphthal-2-yl) isopropyl-2-en-1-one (DFFH) was synthesized by using 6-methoxy-2-acetylnaphthalene as raw material. The probe was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR,13C NMR) and high-resolution mass spectroscopy (HRMS),etc. In the EtOH-H2O (1:4,V/V) system,the 4-hydroxyaniline portion of probe DFFH complexed with Fe3+to form a 1:1 metal complex,resulting in a significant decrease in fluorescence at 386 nm. In the DMSO-H2O (9:1,V/V,pH=5) system,N2H4 reacted with α,β-unsaturated carbonyl group and underwent cyclization addition reaction,and at the same time,the cleavage of the imine bond released aldehyde group from the probe,showing a ratio type fluorescence recognition characteristices. The luminescence intensity of the probe solution decreased slightly upon the additon of Fe3+,and the probe solution changed from colourless to yellowish-brown with the addition of different concentrations of N2H4. Whereas the detection of Fe3+and N2H4 did not interfere with each other. The experimental results showed that probe DFFH had high sensitivity and selectivity toward Fe3+and N2H4,with detection limit of 34.0 nmol/L for Fe3+and 30.0 nmol/L for N2H4,respectively. Moreover,probe DFFH was applied to detection of the contents of Fe3+and N2H4 in actual water samples with satisfactory results,and the spiking recoveries were 96.5％～102.3％and 98.1％～103.0％,respectively.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors of YL-1 type hard channel trepanation and drainage combined with stereotactic treatment for hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 110 patients with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage at the Cerebrovascular Disease Center of the First People's Hospital of Suzhou from August 2019 to October 2022.The observation group(55 cases)received YL-1 type hard channel drilling and drainage combined with stereotactic treatment,while the control group(55 cases)received simple YL-1 type hard channel drilling and drainage.The perioperative indicators,neurological damage,and prognosis of the two groups of patients were compared;Using multiple Logistic regression analysis to identify the prognostic factors affecting patients.Results The perioperative indicators,neurological damage,and prognosis of the observation group were better than those of the control group(P＜0.05);The admission NIHSS score(OR=2.504,P＜0.05),simple minimally invasive drilling and drainage(OR=1.881,P＜0.05),disease duration＞24 hours(OR=2.782,P＜0.001),and ventricular rupture(OR=2.252,P＜0.05)are risk factors for poor prognosis in patients.Conclusion The prolongation of the patient's disease course,ventricular rupture,and severe neurological damage are associated with poor prognosis.Combining stereotactic minimally invasive surgery has a positive significance for improving the prognosis of patients with cerebral hemorrhage.

A 2-year-and-10-month-old boy presented with multiple masses in the neck and chest for over 3 months.The child had a history of unstable walking,with hard lumps visible at the injury sites after falls,which would resolve on their own.Following a recent injury,a mass was discovered in the posterior neck,protruding above the skin surface and accompanied by limited joint movement.Gradually,new masses were found on the left side of the neck,back near the scapular lower angle,in the scapular fossa,and along the left axillary midline.Magnetic resonance imaging examination showed diffuse low signal on T1-weighted images and high signal on T2-weighted images in the bilateral posterior neck and back muscles two months ago.A CT scan revealed muscle swelling,with areas of patchy low density and multiple nodular high-density ossifications within some muscles.Genetic testing results indicated a mutation in the ACVR1 gene,leading to the final diagnosis of progressive ossifying myositis in this patient.This article summarizes the etiology,diagnosis,and treatment of one case of progressive ossifying myositis,providing a reference for clinicians.

Objective To explore the predictive value of soluble fms-like tyrosine kinase-1(sFlt-1)and leukotriene B4(LTB4)in patients with intracranial aneurysms for cerebral vasospasm(CVS)after interventional embolization.Methods A total of 98 patients with intracranial aneurysms admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to September 2023 were regarded as the observation group,and were divided into the CVS group(32 cases)and the non CVS group(66 cases)according to whether CVS occurred or not within 3 to 5 days after surgery;102 healthy examinees in our hospital were selected as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect serum levels of sFlt-1 and LTB4;the influencing factors for CVS after interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis;the predictive value of serum sFlt-1 and LTB4 levels for the occurrence of CVS after interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The serum levels of sFlt-1 and LTB4 of patients in the observation group were obviously higher than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The serum levels of sFlt-1 and LTB4,and the proportions of patients with postoperative blood pressure fluctuation range≥30 mmHg and Hunt-Hess grade Ⅲ in the CVS group were obviously higher than those in the non CVS group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).SFlt-1(OR:2.985;95%CI:1.684 to 5.291)and LTB4(OR:2.868;95%CI:1.581 to 5.204)were the independent risk factors for CVS after interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of sFlt-1 and LTB4 alone and in combination for predicting the occurrence of CVS after interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms were 0.839,0.825,and 0.915,respectively,with sensitivity of 84.44%,87.59%,and 81.36%,and specificity of 74.26%,75.87%,and 90.98%,respectively.The AUC of the combination of the two was higher than those of sFlt-1 and LTB4 alone,and the differences were statistically significant(Z=2.150,2.546,P<0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of sFlt-1 and LTB4 in patients with CVS after interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms are increased,and the combination of the two can serve as the important indicators for predicting CVS.

Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis(PEP)is one of the most common complications after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Numerous PEP prediction models have been established based on different statistical methods at home and abroad.The PEP prediction model,as a tool for evaluating and screening high-risk populations,can provide a basis for medical staff to find high-risk PEP patients early and take effective preventive measures.In recent years,new PEP prediction models have appeared one after another,but there is still a lack of recognized reliable prediction models in clinic.This article reviews the research status of PEP risk prediction models,aim to provide a direction for establishing a more reliable,accurate,and practical PEP risk prediction model in the later period.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of intelligent multifunctional rehabilitation instrument for lower limb diseases in preventing deep vein thrombosis in stroke patients with hemiplegia.Methods:From September 2022 to September 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 121 stroke patients with hemiplegia admitted to the Department of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Rehabilitation of Cangzhou Central Hospital as the study subject. The study subjects were divided into a control group ( n=58) and an observation group ( n=63) using the random number table method. The control group was treated with standard medication and routine rehabilitation nursing, while the observation group was treated with the intelligent multifunctional rehabilitation instrument for lower limb diseases on the basis of the control group. The intervention time was four weeks for both groups. This study compared the incidence of clinical symptoms of lower limbs (swelling, pain, skin temperature, gastrocnemius test results) and deep vein thrombosis in the lower limbs between two groups of patients after intervention. The plasma D-dimer levels, femoral vein blood flow velocity, and blood flow of the two groups of patients before and after intervention were also compared. Results:After intervention, the number of cases of lower limb clinical symptoms (swelling, pain, elevated skin temperature, positive results of gastrocnemius muscle test) and deep vein thrombosis in the observation group was lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). In the observation group, the plasma D-dimer levels of patients were lower than those of the control group ( P<0.05), and the femoral vein blood flow velocity and blood flow were higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The intelligent multifunctional rehabilitation instrument for lower limb diseases can effectively prevent the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis in stroke patients with hemiplegia.
