		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of blue light on emmetropization in guinea pigs, explore the potential mechanisms and assess its application in myopia prevention and control. MethodsThree-week-old male guinea pigs (n=20) were randomly assigned to the white light group and the blue light group. Refraction and ocular biological parameters were measured every 2 weeks until the experiment ended at week 8. And the 4D-data-independent acquisition (4D-DIA) proteomics technology was used to analyze retina from both the blue light and white light groups, exploring protein composition, expression differences, and biological functions. ResultsAfter 2 weeks, Guinea pigs exposed to white light gradually tended towards emmetropia, showing a statistically significant difference in refractive error compared to the blue light group (P<0.001). From week 4, the axial length of the blue light group was significantly shorter than that of the white light group (P<0.05). Meanwhile, the vitreous chamber length in the blue light group was significantly smaller than that of the white light group from week 2 (P<0.05). A total of 161 differentially expressed proteins were identified by proteomics technology in the retina, with 98 proteins upregulated and 63 proteins downregulated. These proteins were primarily enriched in biosynthetic pathways such as vesicle transport, redox reaction, niacin and nicotinamide metabolism and NAD+ metabolism. ConclusionsGuinea pigs raised under blue light exhibit hyperopic drift and slowed axial elongation, which slows the procession of emmetropization. Based on the 4D-DIA technology, the differentially expressed proteins between the blue light and white light groups are primarily involved in NAD+ metabolism, niacin and nicotinamide metabolism. Especially in NAD+ salvage synthesis, nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (NAMPT) is upregulated, while sirtuin 2 (SIRT2) is downregulated. It provides new insights into the mechanism of blue light in emmetropization and a theoretical basis for myopia prevention and control.

		                        			Objective: To investigate the distribution of IgM anti-A/B titers among group O whole blood donors in Jiangsu, establish a low-titer threshold, and analyze the demographic characteristics of low-titer donors, so as to provide data for recruiting low-titer group O whole blood (LTOWB) donors. Methods: Plasma samples from 1 009 group O whole blood donors were tested for IgM anti-A and anti-B titers using the microplate technique. The distribution of antibody titers was analyzed to establish a low-titer threshold. The distribution trends of titers across different demographic groups were also analyzed. Results: The peak titer for anti-A, anti-B were 64 (31.5%), 4 (23.8%), respectively, The proportion of donors with both anti-A and anti-B titers below 64 was 97.3% (982/1 009). The mean anti-A titer was higher than anti-B titer. Anti-A titers were higher in female donors than in male donors (P<0.05). The anti-A titers differed significantly among different age groups (P<0.05). However, no significant difference in titers was observed based on the number of donations (P>0.05). Conclusion: A titer of 64 can be used as the reference threshold of LTOWB in Jiangsu. Male donors of appropriate age are more suitable than female donors for establishing an emergency panel of LTOWB mobile donors.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Jiaohong pills (JHP) and its prescription, Pericarpium Zanthoxyli (PZ) and Rehmanniae Radix (RR) cognitive dysfunction in scopolamine-induced Alzheimer's disease (AD) mice and its mechanism through pharmacodynamic and metabolomics study. MethodThe animal model of AD induced by scopolamine was established and treated with PZ, RG and JHP, respectively. The effects of JHP and its formulations were investigated by open field test, water maze test, object recognition test, avoidance test, cholinergic system and oxidative stress related biochemical test. Untargeted metabolomics analysis of cerebral cortex was performed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-Quadrupole/Orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS). ResultThe behavioral data showed that, compared with the model group, the discrimination indexes of the high dose of JHP, PZ and RR groups was significantly increased (P<0.05). The staging rate of Morris water maze test in the PZ, RR, high and low dose groups of JHP was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), the crossing numbers in the PZ, JHP high and low dose groups were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01); the number of errors in the avoidance test were significantly reduced in the PZ and high-dose JHP groups (P<0.01), and the error latencies were significantly increased in the JHP and its prescription drug groups (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the activities of acetylcholinesterase in the cerebral cortex of the two doses of JHP group and the PZ group were significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the activity of acetylcholinesterase in the high-dose JHP group was significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the level of acetylcholine was significantly increased (P<0.01). At the same time, the contents of malondialdehyde in the serum of the two dose groups of JHP decreased significantly (P<0.05, P<0.01). The results of metabolomics study of cerebral cortex showed that 149 differential metabolites were identified between the JHP group and the model group, which were involved in neurotransmitter metabolism, energy metabolism, oxidative stress and amino acid metabolism. ConclusionJHP and its prescription can antagonize scopolamine-induced cognitive dysfunction, regulate cholinergic system, and reduce oxidative stress damage. The mechanism of its therapeutic effect on AD is related to the regulation of neurotransmitter, energy, amino acid metabolism, and improvement of oxidative stress.

		                        			Objective:To retrospectively analyze the molecular epidemiological features and genetic recombination of coxsackievirus A4 (CVA4) strains isolated in Jiangsu from 2015 to 2022.Methods:Throat or anal swab samples were collected from patients with herpangina or hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). Real-time PCR was used to detect CVA4. A comprehensive and systematic phylogenetic analysis was conducted based on 72 whole genomes and 99 VP1 sequences of CVA4 strains. Several bioinformatics software including DNAStar, MEGA7.0 and Similarity plots3.5.1 was used for analysis of homology, genetic recombination and amino acid variation sites.Results:Four genotypes (A, B, C and D) and five sub-genotypes (C1-C5) of CVA4 were identified based on the VP1 nucleotide sequences. C2 was the predominant sub-genotype causing HFMD. The Jiangsu strains showed high homology with the CVA4 prototype in the P1 region, and higher identity with other strains of enterovirus group A (EV-A) in the P2 and P3 regions. Genetic recombination analysis revealed that the Jiangsu strains had three genetic recombination patterns with other EV-A epidemic strains in the P2, P3 and 3′-UTR regions. These recombination patterns took place during the sustained and widespread circulation of CVA4 in people and increased the transmissibility of CVA4.Conclusions:This study analyzes the phylogenetic and molecular features of 28 whole genomes of Jiangsu CVA4 strains, which helps to better understand the genomic diversity of CVA4. By analyzing the genetic recombination and amino acid mutations in the VP1 region, this study elucidates the evolution and transmission of CVA4, which is conducive to the control and prevention of CVA4 infection.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the current status of endoscopic treatment for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension in China, and to provide supporting data and reference for the development of endoscopic treatment.Methods:In this study, initiated by the Liver Health Consortium in China (CHESS), a questionnaire was designed and distributed online to investigate the basic condition of endoscopic treatment for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension in 2022 in China. Questions included annual number and indication of endoscopic procedures, adherence to guideline for preventing esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB), management and timing of emergent EGVB, management of gastric and isolated varices, and improvement of endoscopic treatment. Proportions of hospitals concerning therapeutic choices to all participant hospitals were calculated. Guideline adherence between secondary and tertiary hospitals were compared by using Chi-square test.Results:A total of 836 hospitals from 31 provinces (anotomous regions and municipalities) participated in the survey. According to the survey, the control of acute EGVB (49.3%, 412/836) and the prevention of recurrent bleeding (38.3%, 320/836) were major indications of endoscopic treatment. For primary [non-selective β-blocker (NSBB) or endoscopic therapies] and secondary prophylaxis (NSBB and endoscopic therapies) of EGVB, adherence to domestic guideline was 72.5% (606/836) and 39.2% (328/836), respectively. There were significant differences in the adherence between secondary and tertiary hospitals in primary prophylaxis of EGVB [71.0% (495/697) VS 79.9% (111/139), χ2=4.11, P=0.033] and secondary prophylaxis of EGVB [41.6% (290/697) VS 27.3% (38/139), χ2=9.31, P=0.002]. A total of 78.2% (654/836) hospitals preferred endoscopic therapies treating acute EGVB, and endoscopic therapy was more likely to be the first choice for treating acute EGVB in tertiary hospitals (82.6%, 576/697) than secondary hospitals [56.1% (78/139), χ2=46.33, P<0.001]. The optimal timing was usually within 12 hours (48.5%, 317/654) and 12-24 hours (36.9%, 241/654) after the bleeding. Regarding the management of gastroesophageal varices type 2 and isolated gastric varices type 1, most hospitals used cyanoacrylate injection in combination with sclerotherapy [48.2% (403/836) and 29.9% (250/836), respectively], but substantial proportions of hospitals preferred clip-assisted therapies [12.4% (104/836) and 26.4% (221/836), respectively]. Improving the skills of endoscopic doctors (84.2%, 704/836), and enhancing the precision of pre-procedure evaluation and quality of multidisciplinary team (78.9%, 660/836) were considered urgent needs in the development of endoscopic treatment. Conclusion:A variety of endoscopic treatments for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension are implemented nationwide. Participant hospitals are active to perform emergent endoscopy for acute EGVB, but are inadequate in following recommendations regarding primary and secondary prophylaxis of EGVB. Moreover, the selection of endoscopic procedures for gastric varices differs greatly among hospitals.

		                        			The esophagus is referred to as the conduit for food and drink.It can be categorized into three distinct phases:an era characterized by written descriptions,a phase marked by anatomical illustrations,and a period of integration between Chinese and Western medical practices.In the initial phase of written descriptions,seminal texts such as The Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic and The Classic of Difficult Issues documented aspects regarding both length and function of the esophagus;however,these accounts were relatively succinct.The subsequent phase saw advancements in anatomical illustrations that refined our comprehension of esophageal structure and functionality.During the period of the integration of Chinese and Western medicine,insights from Western anatomy prompted a reevaluation within Chinese medicine concerning both anatomy and physiology related to the esophagus;concurrently,clini-cal cases involving esophageal disorders emerged prominently.Consequently,Chinese medicine's grasp on esophageal physiology,pa-thology,anatomy,and function became increasingly comprehensive over time.Choosing the esophagus as the starting point for observ-ing the theory of viscera in Chinese medicine is intended to illustrate that Chinese medicine's understanding of life,health and disease is based on the observation and continuous improvement of the anatomical functions of the viscera,integrating the physiological func-tions to form a highly integrated system with functional states,so as to facilitate the use of natural medicines for regulation and treatment.This is a distinctive feature different from Western medicine,and it can keep pace with the times and absorb modern re-search results,and continuously improve the theory and treatment system,so as to obtain strong vitality and benefit mankind.
