OBJECTIVE: To determine the role of Tripterygium wilfordii multiglycoside (TGW) in the treatment of psoriatic dermatitis from a cellular immunological perspective. METHODS: Mouse models of psoriatic dermatitis were established by imiquimod (IMQ). Twelve male BALB/c mice were assigned to IMQ or IMQ₊TGW groups according to a random number table. Histopathological changes in vivo were assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. Ratios of immune cells and cytokines in mice, as well as PAM212 cell proliferation in vitro were assessed by flow cytometry. Pro-inflammatory cytokine expression was determined using reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: TGW significantly ameliorated the severity of IMQ-induced psoriasis-like mouse skin lesions and restrained the activation of CD45⁺ cells, neutrophils and T lymphocytes (all P<0.01). Moreover, TGW significantly attenuated keratinocytes (KCs) proliferation and downregulated the mRNA levels of inflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-17A, IL-23, tumor necrosis factor α, and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (P<0.01 or P<0.05). Furthermore, it reduced the number of γ δ T17 cells in skin lesion of mice and draining lymph nodes (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS TGW improved psoriasis-like inflammation by inhibiting KCs proliferation, as well as the associated immune cells and cytokine expression. It inhibited IL-17 secretion from γ δ T cells, which improved the immune-inflammatory microenvironment of psoriasis.

Platelets have long been recognized as key players in hemostasis and thrombosis; however, there is growing evidence that they are also involved in cancer. Preclinical and clinical studies have shown that platelets can promote tumorigenesis and metastasis through various crosstalks between platelets and cancer cells. Platelets play an active role in all stages of tumorigenesis, including tumor growth, tumor cell extravasation, and metastasis. In addition, thrombocytosis in cancer patients is associated with poor patient survival. Platelets are also well-placed to coordinate local and distant tumor-host interactions due to the a- bundance of microparticles and exosomes. Therefore, antitumor drugs targeting platelets have great development and application prospects. The following will review the research progress of anti-tumor drugs targeting platelets.

Purpose To observation the relationship be-tween the β-catenin/Slug signal specific inhibitor FH535 and EMT,and to explore the role of LPCAT1 in regulating the inva-sion,metastasis,and growth of cervical cancer cells.Methods Hela cells were transfected with sh-NC and sh-LPCAT1,and SiHa cells were transfected with Vector group and LPCAT1 over-expression plasmid.SiHa cells were divided into control group(Con),LPCAT1 group,LPCAT1+FH535 group and FH535 group.The proliferation of cervical cancer cells was detected by CCK-8 analysis and colony formation test.The metastasis and invasion ability of cervical cancer cells were detected by wound healing test and Transwell test.Western blot was used to analyze the expression of LPCAT1,β-catenin/Slug signaling pathway and EMT-related proteins in cells.Results Compared with Vector group,the cell viability,colony number,migration and invasion number of SiHa cells in LPCAT1 group increased signif-icantly(P＜0.05).Compared with sh-NC group,the cell via-bility,colony number,migration and invasion number of Hela cells in sh-LPCAT1 group decreased significantly(P＜0.05).Compared with LPCAT1 group,the levels of Wnt4(1.18±0.05 vs 0.80±0.06),β-catenin(1.05±0.08 vs 0.77±0.05),Slug(1.13±0.06 vs 0.28±0.02),Cyclin D1(0.99±0.06 vs 0.44±0.02),N-cadherin(0.91±0.07 vs 0.46±0.03)and vimentin(0.95±0.06 vs 0.49±0.03)in SiHa cells in LPCAT1+FH535 group decreased significantly(P＜0.05),and the level of E-cadherin(0.44±0.03 vs 0.58±0.03)in-creased significantly(P＜0.05).In addition,compared with LPCAT1 group,the number of colonies(224±15 vs 146±11),migration(85±3vs51±4)and invasive(166±10 vs 90±5)cells of SiHa cells in LPCAT1+FH535 group decreased signifi-cantly(P＜0.05).Conclusion The increase of LPCAT1 ex-pression may promote the metastasis and progress of CC by acti-vating β-catenin/Slug signaling pathway,and LPCAT1 may be a potential marker for predicting CC metastasis.

Since the World Health Organization(WHO)officially announced COVID-19 as a global pandemic in 2020,114 countries or regions in the world have been affected to varying degrees.The arrival of the post-epidemic era requires countries to take new epidemic prevention and control measures to deal with the problems and challenges that may arise in the future.In order to help China consolidate its epidemic prevention achievements over the years and gain a larger development window in the post-epidemic era,this study explored the changes in the global epidemic situation and the major national prevention and control policies in different countries,summarized the development and changes of China's epidemic prevention and control policies,and proposed new family-centered precision prevention and control measures that adapt to China's national conditions.

To promote the construction of a wound repair and regeneration system with Chinese characteristics, it is necessary to follow the principle of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and integrate theory, clinical practice, and teaching. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes a holistic concept and the principle of dialectical treatment, while Western medicine focuses on etiological analysis and local treatment. The combination of Chinese and Western medicine can complement each other's advantages and improve treatment effectiveness. The key technological innovations in repairing and regenerating systems cover areas such as drug therapy, physical therapy, and the application of biomaterials. This article discusses the development potential and challenges of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the field of wound repair and regeneration, providing new ideas and methods for the development of wound repair and regeneration. It is expected to bring better medical services and treatment effects to patients undergoing repair and regeneration.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective:To assess the effects of nutritional interventions combined with Traditional Chinese Med-icine(TCM)physical dialectics on the development of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM),dietary status during pregnancy,and maternal and infant outcomes in high-risk pregnant women in early pregnancy.Methods:298 high-risk pregnant women with GDM in early pregnancy(gestational week≤14 weeks)registered in the Obstet-rics Department of Urumqi Maternal and Child Health Hospital from 1st December 2022 to 30th March 2023 were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into the intervention group(149 cases)and the control group(149 cases).During 14 to 23+6 weeks of pregnancy,TCM constitution nutritional intervention was carried out for pregnant women in the intervention group,and routine guidance and healthy dietary education was carried out in the control group.The incidence of GDM in the two groups was compared at 24-28 weeks of pregnancy,and the relationship between early pregnancy nutritional intervention combined with TCM constitution and the risk of GDM was analysed in subgroups using logistic regression and likelihood ratio test.The dietary situation,biochemical in-dexes and delivery outcomes after the intervention were compared at 32-36 weeks of pregnancy.Results:①The incidence of GDM in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the control group(14.09％vs.23.49％,P＜0.05).The effect of the TCM constitution based nutritional intervention on the risk probability of GDM was statistically significant only among pregnant women with different ranges of gestational weight gain(GWG)(P=0.018).Among them,pregnant women with GWG lower than the recommended range had a reduced risk of GDM after intervention(OR 0.27,95％Cl 0.10-0.68,P=0.008).② After intervention,the evaluation index of di-etary balance index of pregnant women in the intervention group was better than that of the control group(P＜0.05),and the intake of cereals and potatoes,vegetables,and water of pregnant women in late pregnancy in the intervention group was higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).③The levels of triglycerides,total choles-terol,low-density lipoprotein,glycated haemoglobin,uric acid and creatinine of pregnant women in the intervention group were lower than those of the control group in late pregnancy(P＜0.05).GWG,gestational age at delivery,the rate of low-birth-weight,and the neonatal 1-minute Apgar scores were all better than those of the control group(P＜0.05.Conclusions:Nutritional interventions in early pregnancy combined with TCM constitution can sig-nificantly reduce the incidence of GDM in high-risk pregnant women and the chances of low-birth-weight babies.Obstetrics outpatient clinics can actively develop extensive collaboration with TCM and clinical nutrition depart-ments to reduce adverse pregnancy outcomes for both mother and fetus.
