ObjectiveTo characterize the evidence distribution and methodological quality of randomized controlled trials （RCTs） on oral Chinese herbal medicine （CHM） for atopic dermatitis （AD） based on evidence mapping. MethodsSeven databases （CNKI， Wanfang Data， VIP， CBM， Cochrane Library， PubMed， and Embase） and the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry were searched for the RCTs in Chinese and English. Evidence distribution was presented graphically and textually， and methodological quality was assessed via the Cochrane Risk of Bias tool （ROB 1.0）. ResultsA total of 168 RCTs were included. The number of annual publications showing an increasing trend， and 72.6% RCTs had sample sizes of 51-100 participants. The studies evaluated 108 distinct CHM interventions categorized as decoctions， granules， Chinese patent medicines， and extracts. Compound Glycyrrhizin was the most frequently used， followed by Xiaofengsan and Chushi Weiling decoction. Among the RCTs， 57.1% had the treatment courses of 4-8 weeks. Outcome measures predominantly focused on clinical response rate， skin lesion severity scores， and adverse events， with less attention to TCM symptom scores， skin barrier function， and relapse rates. The overall risk of bias was generally high. ConclusionWhile CHM for AD is a research hotspot and demonstrates clinical advantages， the related studies have problems such as unclear clinical positioning， poor research standardization and methodological quality， and insufficient prominence of TCM clinical advantages. Large-sample， methodologically rigorous， and high-quality studies are needed to enhance the evidence base for CHM in treating AD.

Aim To investigate the targeting mechanism of miR-23b on PINKl/Parkin pathway in transdifferentiation of NRK-52E cellsinduced by TGF-β1, and to elucidate the intervention mechanism of Qingshen granules drug-containing serum on NRK-52E cell transdifferentiation. Methods Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography ( UPLC ) fingerprinting method was used to analyze Qingshen granules. The NRK-52E transdifferentiation model induced by TGF-β1 was constructed. The NRK-52E cells were divided into simulated no-load control group, miR-23b-5p simulated group, inhibitor no-load control group, and miR-23b-5p inhibitor group, after transfection with siRNA, and the effect of miR-23b-5p on PINK1 expression was ob-served. The NRK-52E cells were then divided into normal group, TGF-(31 group, Qingshen granule group, miR-23 b-mimic group, miR-23 b-mimic group, and miR-23b-mimic + Qingshen granule group. Western blot was used to detect the expression of Pinkl, Parkin, LC3 n, Beclin-1, P62 and a-SMA proteins, and RT- PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-23 b-5p, Pinkl, Parkin, Beclin-1 and a-SMA mRNA in NRK- 52E cells. Dual-Luciferase Reporter gene experiment was used to detect the targeting relationship between miR-23b-5p and PINKL Results UPLC fingerprinting method found 11 active components in Qingshen granules. After overexpression of miR-23b-5p, the expression of PINkl mRNA significantly increased (P < 0. 05). And after silencing of miR-23 b-5 p expression, the expression of PINkl mRNA also significantly decreased (P < 0. 05 ). Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay showed that Rno-miR-23b-5p could significantly down- regulate the luciferase activity of Rno-PINKl-WT (P < 0. 05 ), but could not down-regulate the luciferase activity of mutant Rno-PINKl -mut ( P > 0. 05 ). The experimental results showed that the expressions of miR- 23b-5p, Pinkl, Parkin, Beclin-1, LC3 II and LC3 II/ I ratio in TGF-β1 group were significantly lower than those in normal group, but the expressions of P62 and a-SMA were significantly higher than those in normal group ( P <0.05). The expressions of miR-23 b-5 p, Pinkl, Parkin, Beclin-1, LC3 II and LC3 11/ I ratio in Qingshen granule group and miR-23 b-mimic group were significantly higher than those in TGF-β1 group, and the expressions of P62 and a-SMA were significantly lower than those in TGF-β1 group (P < 0. 05 ). The performance of miR-23 b-mimic + Qingshen granule group was better than that of miR-23 b-mimic group (P < 0. 05 ). Conclusions Qingshen granules can up- regulate the expression of miR-23b-5p in NRK-52E cellsand inhibit the transdifferentiation process of NRK- 52E cells by enhancing the mitochondrial autophagy activity mediated by PINKl/Parkin pathway.

Objective To discuss the application of the"rotating guidewire and correcting the filter recovery hook direction technique"("rotation-correction loop technique"for short),a technique invented by the authors in clinical practice,in the retrieval of complex inferior vena cava filter(IVCF),and to discuss its technical skills and advantages.Methods The clinical data of 417 patients carrying an IVCF,who were admitted to the Department of Vascular Surgery of Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University of China to retrieve IVCF between January 2022 and December 2022,were retrospectively analyzed.Taking the time spent on the retrieval of IVCF and the intraoperative radiation dose as the evaluation indicators,the advantages and disadvantages of the standard filter retrieval technique,the"rotation-correction loop technique"and the other loop-assisted techniques were compared.Results Both the intraoperative radiation dose and the time spent on the retrieval of IVCF using"rotation-correction loop technique"were remarkably lower than those of other loop-assisted techniques(P＜0.000 1).Conclusion For the retrieval of complex IVCF,especially for the IVCF which is heavily tilted and/or its recovered hook is attached to the vascular wall,the use of"rotation-correction loop technique"can shorten the time spent on the the retrieval of IVCF and reduce the intraoperative radiation dose.This technique carries high safety and practicability,the device is simple and it can be manipulated by single physician,which is conducive to clinical application and promotion.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:289-294)

Objective: To explore the influencing factors of role adaptation of college freshmen, so as to provide empirical support for developing adaptive education in college. Methods: A cluster sampling method was used to select 3 126 freshmen from six universities of Hefei City and Wuhu City in Anhui Province in October 2022, who were investigated with Positive Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PPQ), Freshmen s Role Adaptability Scale, Connor Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) and Life Satisfaction Scale. Independent sample t-test and oneway ANOVA were used to compare the scores (caverage score of items) of various variables of college freshmen with different demographic characteristics. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were conducted to analyze the correlation. Results: There were statistically significant differences in scores of psychological capital, resilience, life satisfaction and role adaptation among college freshmen of different origin (large and mediumsized cities: ３.６３± ０.５４，３.７３±０.６４，３.４７±０.８０，３.１４±０.６５；county level city or county seat:３.５７±０.５２，３.６１±０.６３，３.３５±０.７５，３.０９±０.６３；villages and towns:３.５０±０.５０，３.５４±０.５８，３.２３±０.７５，３.０６±０.６０), whether in class committee (yes:３.６３±０.５２，３.６９±０.６０，３.４０± ０.７６ ，３.１８±０.５９； no:３.４３±０.５０，３.４８±０.６４，３.２５±０.７７，２.９３±０.６５), father s education level (junior high school or below:３.５２± ０.５１ ，３.５７±０.６１，３.２７±０.７５，３.０７±０.６１； senior high school or technical secondary school:３.６２±０.５３，３.６８±０.６３，３.４４±０.７８，３.１２±０.６３；junior college or above:３.６８±０.５６，３.７８±０.６４，３.５７±０.８０，３.１９±０.６８)，mother s education level(junior high school or below:３.５３±０.５１，３.５８±０.６１，３.２８±０.７５，３.０６±０.６０；senior high school or technical secondary school:３.６３±０.５５，３.７０±０.６３，３.４８±０.７８，３.１５±０.６６；junior college or above:３.７２±０.５４，３.８６±０.６５，３.６２±０.８３，３.２７±０.７０) ( F / t =11.89,21.89,23.02,3.83；10.08，9.20， 5.20 ，10.63；19.34，20.76，29.52，6.44；22.51，26.79，30.94，13.92， P <0.05). The differences of scores in resilience and role adaptation of different genders (boys:3.66±0.64, 3.12±0.65; girls:3.56±0.59, 3.05±0.58) and in life satisfaction whether being an only child (yes:3.40±0.79; no:3.33±0.76) among college freshmen were statistically significant ( t =4.51, 2.75, 2.35, P <0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that psychological capital, resilience and life satisfaction of college freshmen were positively correlated with role adaptation ( r =0.49, 0.49, 0.36), while psychological capital, resilience and role adaptation were positively correlated ( r =0.60, 0.59) and Psychological capital was positively correlated with resistance ( r =0.81)( P <0.01). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, whether in class committee, psychological capital, resilience and life satisfaction were positively associated with role adaptation among college freshmen ( R 2=0.28, β =0.04, 0.10, 0.23, 0.26, 0.07， P <0.05). Conclusions Role adaptation of college freshmen is related with psychological capital, resilience and life satisfaction. Schools should strengthen mental health education to promote smooth role transition for college freshmen.

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) on cognitive function of vascular dementia (VD) rats and its mechanism. MethodsVD rat model was established by modified two-vessel occlusion (2-VO). After modeling, TEAS and electroacupuncture (EA) were used to stimulate Baihui and Zusanli points of rats respectively for 14 d. After treatment, novel object recognition test, Morris water maze test, and Y maze test were used to evaluate the spatial memory and learning ability of rats. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to observe the morphology of hippocampal neurons. Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the ultrastructure of hippocampal mitochondria. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kits were used to detected the levels of SOD, CAT, GSH-Px, MDA and ROS in serum of rats. Western blot was used to detect the expression of PGC-1α, TFAM, HO-1, NQO1 proteins in the hippocampus, Keap1 protein in the cytoplasm and Nrf2, NRF1 proteins in the nucleus. ResultsAfter treatment for 14 d, compared to the model group, the escape latency of VD rats decreased, while the discrimination index, the times of rats crossing the original platform area, the residence time in the original platform quadrant, and the percentage of alternation increased. TEAS can improve the structure of hippocampal neurons and mitochondria of VD rats, showing that neurons were arranged more regularly and distributed more evenly, nuclear membrane and nucleoli were clearer, and mitochondrial swelling were reduced, mitochondrial matrix density were increased, and mitochondrial cristae were more obvious. The levels of SOD, GSH-Px and CAT in serum increased significantly, while the concentration of MDA and ROS decreased. TEAS also up-regulated the expression levels of PGC-1α TFAM, NQO1 and HO-1 proteins in the hippocampus and Nrf2, NRF1 proteins in the nucleus, but down-regulated the Keap1 protein in the cytoplasm. ConclusionTEAS can improve cognition, hippocampal neurons and mitochondrial structure of VD rats, and the effect is better than EA. The mechanism may be the activation of PGC-1α mediated mitochondrial biogenesis and antioxidant stress, which also provides a potential therapeutic technology and experimental basis for the treatment of VD.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of lesion removal,bone grafting,fusion,and external fixation in the treatment of late-stage wrist tuberculosis.Methods From October 2015 to May 2019,25 patients with late-stage wrist tubercu-losis were treated using lesion removal,bone grafting,fusion,and external fixation.Among these patients,there were 14 males and 11 females,aged from 40 to 74 years old,with an average age of(60.72±8.45)years old.The duration of the disease ranged from 5 to 24 months,with an average of(11.52±7.61)months.There were 11 cases of left wrist tuberculosis and 14 cases of right wrist tuberculosis,with 5 cases accompanied by sinus formation.Postoperative regular anti-tuberculosis treatment was continued.Visual analogue score(VAS),inflammatory indicators,Gartland-Werley wrist function score,and upper limb function score were observed before and after treatment.Results All 25 patients were followed up for ranging from 12 to 36 months with an average of(19.7±6.3)months.At the latest follow-up,all wounds were healed satisfactorily,and there was no recurrence of tuberculosis or infection.VAS at one week before operation and three months after operation were(5.16±1.14)score and(1.68±0.80)score respectively.One week before operation and three months after operation,erythrocyte sedimenta-tion rate(ESR)was(44.20±20.56)mm·h-1 and(14.44±1.14)mm·h-1,and C-reactive protein(CRP)was(12.37±7.95)mg· L-1and(4.3±3.37)mg·L-1.The differences in all three data sets were statistically significant(P＜0.01).According to Gartland-Werley wrist function scoring,the scores at one week before operation and one year after operation were(21.32±3.44)and(14.96±1.37)respectively,showed a statistically significant difference(P＜0.01).According to the upper limb function score(disabilities of the arm,shoulder,and hand,DASH),the score was(70.52±7.95)at one week before operation and(28.84± 2.30)at one year after operation.The difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).At the latest follow-up,no patient had a recurrence of tuberculosis.Conclusion The short-term clinical efficacy of treating wrist tuberculosis with lesion removal,bone grafting,fusion,and external fixation is satisfactory.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Proteolysis-targeting chimera (PROTAC), as an emerging treatment method, has become one of the hottest technologies in the field of new drug research with a near-20-year development. PROTAC utilizes the natural ubiquitin-protease system in cells to induce targeted protein degradation, especially for protein of interest that are difficult to target by traditional small molecules. Moreover, PROTAC is expected to solve the problem of drug resistance that often occurs with small molecule drugs. However, the excessive relative molecular weight, poor solubility and membrane permeability, and low oral absorption of PROTAC make it challenging to druggability study. Currently, take pharmacokinetic characteristics as the entry point to continuously optimize and improve, so as to accelerate the transformation of PROTAC from laboratory to clinical application. Based on the basic structure and mechanism of PROTACs, this review introduces its pharmacokinetic properties, analyzes how to design efficient and stable PROTAC molecules, summarizes its current research progress in various diseases treatments, evaluates the development prospects and limitations of PROTAC, in order to provide more references for further research and application of PROTAC.
