Objective To investigate the effect of Cyclocarya paliurus(Batal.)lljinskaja polysaccharides on insulin resistance in type 2 diabetic rats by regulating glucose transporter 4(GLUT4)translocation in islet and liver.Methods High-fat diet combined with low-dose streptozotocin(35 mg·kg-1)to induce type 2 diabetes model,all the rats were randomly divided into model control group,Cyclocarya paliurus polysaccharides groups(5,10 g·kg-1)and metformin group(0.25 g·kg-1),and treated for eight weeks(n=9 in each group).Fasting glucose and lipid were determined.Histopathology of rat islet and liver were observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining.Protein expressions of phosphorylated phosphoinositide-3-kinase(p-PI3K),phosphorylated serine-threonine kinase 1(p-Akt1),and GLUT4 in islet were measured by immunohistochemistry staining.GLUT4 translocation in the islet and liver was detected by immunofluorescence.Results Compared with the model control group,the Cyclocarya paliurus polysaccharides group and metformin group had declined fasting glucose levels and increased high-density lipoprotein(P<0.05).The structure of the islets and liver was relatively complete.The content of p-PI3K,p-Akt1 and GLUT4 in the islet increased(P<0.05).GLUT4 translocation in the liver and islet enhanced(P<0.05).Conclusions Cyclocarya paliurus polysaccharides alleviate glucose and lipid metabolism disorders.The mechanism may lay in it activating protein expressions of p-PI3K,p-Akt1,and GLUT4 in islet cells.GLUT4 translocation to the islet and liver cell membrane are increased to regulate peripheral islet resistance.

Objective To analyze the medication rule of Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)in treating diabetes nephropathy(DN)and to explore the interaction between core components and key targets.Methods Based on the ancient and modern medical case cloud platform,the medication rules of TCMs and the drug pairs with the highest frequency in treating DN were summarized.Then the network pharmacology approach was utilized to analyze the pharmacodynamic material basis and mechanisms of the highest frequency-drug pairs.The potential targets were predicted by Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP)databases.TTD,DISGENET,and GENECARD databases were used to obtain the related targets of DN and screen out the potential targets for DN.In order to clarify the relationships between the active ingredients,the core targets,and pathways,STRING and Cytoscape 3.7.1 software were used to construct the protein-protein interaction(PPI)network and core drugs-ingredients-targets-disease interaction network,DAVID database was screened for Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Gnomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis of core targets.Sybyl 2.1 software and biofilm interference verify the combined capacity between the core ingredients and key targets.Results Among 183 prescriptions,Astragali Radix had the highest use frequency and average dose,43 times and 37 g,respectively,followed by Salviae miltiorrhizae Radix and Poria cocos.To find the core combined with the highest confidence in association analysis was astragalus,salvia miltiorrhiza,and tuckahoe.Correlation analysis indicates that the core combination with the highest confidence was Astragali Radix-Salviae miltiorrhizae Radix-Poria cocos.Network pharmacologic showed 89 potential targets and 15 key signaling pathways for the treatment of DN by the drug pair.TNF signaling pathway,Nod-like receptor signaling pathway,and MAPK signaling pathway were disease-related pathways,and IL-6,TNF,and vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA)were core targets.Isorhamnetin and quercetin of the drug pair had high binding ability with IL6,the scores were 8.2 and 7.4,respectively,and the dissociation constants(KD)were 5.6×10-5 mol·L-1 and 6.8×10-5 mol·L-1,respectively.Conclusion This study preliminarily finds the prescription rule of treating DN with Astragali Radix-Salviae miltiorrhizae Radix-Poria cocos as the core drug pair,isorhamnetin,and quercetin are probably the main active compounds of this drug pair in DN treatment,which provides a basis for clinical treatment and drug discovery of DN.

Objective To design a medical order pre-evaluation tool for perioperative prophylactic application of antibiotics,and to improve the efficiency of antibiotics management in hospitals during the perioperative period.Methods Using the open-source software R as the platform,a web application was built with tidy verse and shiny package based on related documents and guidelines.The discharge records of Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from April 1,2021,to December 31,2022,were retrospectively reviewed using the constructed pre-evaluation tool and compared with previous manual evaluation results using McNemar's Chi-squared test.Results This medical order pre-evaluation tool can quickly complete perioperative antibiotics order sampling,batch pre-evaluation,result statistics,visualization,and result output,and flexibly adjust the evaluation rules according to actual needs.The pre-evaluation tool is more efficient,with a review speed of 13.46 ms per medical record.Among the 2 642 discharge medical records of manual review,there was no significant difference between systematic pre-evaluation and manual evaluation results(ratio of prophylactic use:76.85%vs.78.21%)in terms of the type of use(preventive or curative)(P= 0.078).Among the 1 857 discharge records judged to be prophylactic for both manual and systematic reviews,the difference in unreasonable detection rate(39.90%vs.30.32%)was statistically significant(P<0.001).Among the 63 typical ludicrous medical records confirmed by the review of clinical pharmacists with senior professional titles,60 were judged and limited by the pre-evaluation tool,and the detection rate of typical unreasonable was 95.24%.Conclusions The pre-evaluation tool based on R in this study can improve the efficiency of perioperative antibacterial drug evaluation.The evaluation conclusions and statistical results are reliable and are worthy of further development and application.
