ObjectiveThe differential expression of microRNAs （miRNAs） between the active stage and the remission stage of ulcerative colitis （UC） was analyzed by bioinformatics method， and the regulatory relationship was constructed by screening the differentially expressed genes （DEGs）. The mechanism of Xizhuo Jiedu recipe in the treatment of UC was speculated and verified by animal experiments. MethodThe miRNAs data set of colonic mucosa tissue of UC patients was obtained from the gene expression database （GEO）， and the most differentially expressed miRNAs were screened by GEO2R， Excel， and other tools as research objects. TargetScan， miRTarbase， miRDB， STRING， TRRUST， and Matescape databases were used to screen key DEGs， predict downstream transcription factors （TFs）， gene ontology （GO）， and conduct Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis. The key signaling pathways were selected for animal experiments. In animal experiments， the UC mouse model was prepared by making the mouse freely drink 2.5% dextran sodium sulfate （DSS）. Xiezhu Jiedu recipe and mesalazine were given by gavage for seven days， and the inflammatory infiltration of colonic mucosa was observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the mRNA expression of miR-155-5p in colon tissue. Immunohistochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the protein expression levels of cytokine signal transduction inhibitor （SOCS1）， phosphorylated transcriptional signal transductor and activator 3 （p-STAT3）， phosphorylated Janus kinase 2 （p-JAK2）， and retinoic acid-associated orphan receptor-γt （ROR-γt）. The expression levels of transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， interleukin-17 （IL-17）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-10 （IL-10） in serum were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. ResultThe GSE48957 dataset was screened from the GEO database， and miR-155-5p was selected as the research object from the samples in the active and remission stages. 131 DEGs were screened. The GO/KEGG enrichment analysis was closely related to biological processes such as positive regulation of miRNA transcription and protein phosphorylation， as well as signaling pathways such as stem cell signaling pathway， IL-17 signaling pathway， and helper T cell 17 （Th17） cell differentiation. The Matescape database was used to screen out 10 key DEGs， among which SOCS1 was one of the key DEGs of miR-155-5p. Further screening of the TFS of key DEGs revealed that STAT3 was one of the main TFs of SOCS1. The results of animal experiments showed that Xiezhu Jiedu Recipe could effectively down-regulate the mRNA expression of miR-155-5p and protein expression of p-STAT3， p-JAK2， and ROR-γt in colon tissue of UC mice and the expression of IL-17 and IL-6 in serum of UC mice， up-regulate the protein expression of SOCS1 and the expression of TGF-β and IL-10， increase the level of anti-inflammatory factors， and reduce inflammatory cell infiltration. ConclusionIt is speculated that Xizhuo Jiedu recipe may interfere with SOCS1 by regulating the expression of miR-155-5p in UC mice， inhibit the phosphorylation of STAT3， inhibit the differentiation of CD4⁺ T cells into Th17 cells， reduce the levels of pro-inflammatory factors （IL-17 and IL-6）， and increase the levels of anti-inflammatory factors （TGF-β and IL-10）. As a result， the inflammation of colon mucosa in UC mice was alleviated.

Objective:To analyze awareness, willingness, the status of using, and related factors of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Shaanxi Province to provide a reference for the next step of HIV prevention and control strategy.Methods:Using a cross-sectional study design from March to May 2022, with the assistance of MSM social organizations in Xi'an, relying on the network platform and MSM Social organizations, a convenient sampling method was used to recruit MSM with an estimated sample size of 900. The inclusion criteria were male aged ≥18, having had same-sex sexual intercourse in the last twelve months, HIV-negative or unknown status of infection. An electronic questionnaire was made with the help of questionnaire-star and an anonymous self-administered questionnaire was used to collect information on socio-demographic characteristics, sexual behavior, awareness and using of PrEP, etc. A logistic regression model was used to analyze related factors of PrEP awareness and use in MSM. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results:Among 981 MSM subjects, 76.55% (751/981) had heard of PrEP, and 42.51% (417/981) were aware of PrEP. Among those who knew about PrEP, 74.34% (310/417) had homosexual sexual activity in the last six months, 99.03% (307/310) were willing to use PrEP, and 40.97% (127/310) were using PrEP. The multivariate logistic regression analysis model results showed that nationality (other ethnic groups:a OR=4.48,95% CI:1.28-15.68),education level (high school or technical secondary school: a OR=3.01,95% CI:1.49-6.07; universities or colleges: a OR=2.86,95% CI:1.47-5.57; master degree: a OR=5.10,95% CI:2.37-10.98), monthly income 5 000-10 000 yuan (a OR=1.70,95% CI: 1.00-2.88), tested for HIV in the past 12 months (a OR=1.87,95% CI:1.34-2.61) were related factors of PrEP knowledge awareness. Singlehood (a OR=0.46,95% CI:0.26-0.81) and consulted professionals about PrEP (a OR=9.56,95% CI:4.58-19.96) were related factors of PrEP use. Conclusions:The proportion of willingness to use PrEP was higher among MSM in Shaanxi Province, but the awareness rate and utilization rate of MSM for PrEP were low. The cognition of PrEP should be further improved to promote the correct use of PrEP among MSM.

Objective To construct a mouse model of alcoholic liver fibrosis and explore the effect of supplementing exogenous thyroid hormone T3 on oxidative stress in liver.Methods Eighty mice were randomly divided into 6 groups,normal control group,alcoholic liver fibrosis(ALF)model group,and low concentration T3 intervention group(25 μg/kg),medium concentration T3 intervention group(50 μg/kg),high concentration T3 intervention group(100 μg/kg)and T3 control group(the concentration of T3 is 100 μg/kg).A model of mice alcoholic liver fibrosis was established by using alcoholic liquid feed combined with 31.5％ethanol gavage.From the sixth week,mice in the T3 intervention and T3 control group were injected with corresponding concentrations of T3 intraperitoneally for three weeks.Mice in the control and T3 control groups were fed with control liquid feed.The degree of mice liver injury and fibrosis was evaluated through the sirius red staining,Western blotting,and serum biochemical testing.The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD),the content of glutathione(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA)in liver tissue were detected by ELISA,and the protein expressions of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3-Ⅱ(LC3-Ⅱ)and p62 were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting.Results The liver structure and function in the ALF group were severely damaged,autophagy was inhibited,and the oxidative stress response was significantly enhanced compared with the control group.Compared with the ALF group,the recovery of liver functional and structure and autophagy were showed in the T3 intervention group,and SOD activity and GSH content in the liver increased in the low and medium concentrations of T3 intervention groups,while MDA content significantly decreased.In the high concentration T3 intervention group,it showed the same increase in SOD activity,a significant decrease in MDA content,while the content of GSH was lower than that in the control group,which was not different with the ALF group.Conclusion Appropriate supplementation of T3 could affect the occurrence and development of alcoholic liver fibrosis by restoring the liver autophagy to inhibit the oxidative stress response.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To investigate the independent risk factors of postoperative femoral head necrosis for pediatric femoral neck fractures.Methods The clinical data of 122 children with femoral neck fracture who underwent surgery in our hospital from July 2008 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The femoral head necrosis was counted,and the children were divided into the femoral head necrosis group and the femoral head normal group according to the presence of femoral head necrosis,then the risk factors of femoral head necrosis were analyzed.Results Of the 122 children,22 cases(18.03％)had femoral head necrosis.The postoperative femoral head necrosis for pediatric femoral neck fractures may be related to the age,Delbet classification,initial displacement degree,injury mechanism,operation time,internal fixation method and reduction quality(P＜0.05),while which has no significant correlation with the gender,side,time from injury to operation,or reduction method(P＞0.05).The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that age＞10 years,Delbet type of Ⅰ to Ⅱ,initial displacement degree of type Ⅲ,high-energy injury and unacceptable reduction were the independent risk factors of postoperative femoral head necrosis for pediatric femoral neck fractures(P＜0.05).Conclusion Older children,or patients with Delbet type of Ⅰ to Ⅱ,large degree of initial displacement,high-energy injury,and unacceptable reduction are the independent risk factors of postoperative femoral head necrosis for pediatric femoral neck fractures.

Rhizome rot is one of the main disease in the cultivation of Polygonatum cyrtonema, and it is also a global disease which seriously occurs on the perennial medicinal plants such as Panax notoginseng and P. ginseng. There is no effective control method at present. To identify the effects of three biocontrol microbes(Penicillium oxalicum QZ8, Trichoderma asperellum QZ2, and Brevibacillus amyloliquefaciens WK1) on the pathogens causing rhizome rot of P. cyrtonema, this study verified six suspected pathogens for their pathogenicity on P. cyrtonema. The result showed that Fusarium sp. HJ4, Colletotrichum sp. HJ4-1, and Phomopsis sp. HJ15 were the pathogens of rhizome rot of P. cyrtonema, and it was found for the first time that Phomopsis sp. could cause rhizome rot P. cyrtonema. Furthermore, the inhibitory effects of biocontrol microbes and their secondary metabolites on three pathogens were determined by confrontation culture. The results showed that the three tested biocontrol microbes significantly inhibited the growth of three pathogens. Moreover, the secondary metabolites of T. asperellum QZ2 and B. amyloliquefaciens WK1 showed significant inhibition against the three pathogens(P<0.05), and the effect of B. amyloliquefaciens WK1 sterile filtrate was significantly higher than that of high tempe-rature sterilized filtrate(P<0.05). B. amyloliquefaciens WK1 produced antibacterial metabolites to inhibit the growth of pathogens, and the growth inhibition rate of its sterile filtrate against three pathogens ranged from 87.84% to 93.14%. T. asperellum QZ2 inhibited the growth of pathogens through competition and antagonism, and P. oxalicum QZ8 exerted the inhibitory effect through competition. The research provides new ideas for the prevention and treatment of rhizome rot of P. cyrtonema and provides a basis for the di-sease control in other crops.
