ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of Lutongning granules in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia in animal models and study its mechanism of action， so as to provide laboratory data support for the clinical application of Lutongning granules and precise treatment. MethodMale SD rats were randomly divided into normal group， model group， carbamazepine group （0.06 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， high-dose Lutongning group （2.70 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and low-dose Lutongning group （1.35 g·kg^-1·d^-1） according to the stratified basic mechanical pain thresholds， with 10 rats in each group. A trigeminal neuralgia model of rats was prepared by injecting 30% talc suspension into the infraorbital foramen area of the rat. The drug groups were administered 10 mL·kg^-1 of drugs by gavage after 2 h of modeling. The normal group and the model group were administered distilled water by gavage under the same conditions once a day for 10 consecutive days. Von Frey brushes were used to determine the mechanical pain threshold of rats. A fully automated blood and body fluid analyzer was employed to detect the blood routine of rats. Hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining was utilized to detect the pathological changes in the trigeminal ganglion and medulla oblongata tissue. Transmission electron microscopy was used to scan the ultrastructure of the medulla oblongata tissue. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the levels of inflammatory factors interleukin （IL）-1， IL-6， IL-8， tumor necrosis factor （TNF）-α， neuropeptide substance P， and β-endorphins （β-EP） in the serum of rats， and Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of IL-1β， purinergic receptor P2X7 （P2X7R）， and phosphorylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase （p-p38 MAPK）. ResultCompared with that in the normal group， the pain threshold of rats in the model group was significantly lower （P<0.01）. The absolute value of neutrophils （NEUT#） and the percentage of neutrophils （NEUT） were significantly improved， and the percentage of lymphocytes （LYMPH） was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. The serum levels of IL-1， IL-6， IL-8， and TNF-α were significantly increased （P<0.01）. SP content in brain tissue was significantly increased， and β-EP content was significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The relative protein expression of IL-1β， P2X7R， and p-p38 MAPK was significantly increased （P<0.05）. HE staining and transmission electron microscopy results of medulla oblongata tissue revealed neuronal degeneration， mild proliferation of microglial cells， reduction in the number of myelinated nerves， and obvious demyelination. The trigeminal nerve fibers of rats were disarranged， and some nerve fibers showed vacuolization. Axons were swollen， and Schwann cells proliferated. Demyelination was observed. Compared with the model group， each administration group significantly increased the pain threshold of rats （P<0.05， P<0.01）， reduced NEUT# and NEUT， and elevated LYMPH （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The administration group significantly decreased the levels of IL-1， IL-6， IL-8， and TNF-α in serum and SP in brain tissue （P<0.01） and increased the level of β-EP （P<0.01）. They significantly down-regulated the protein expression of IL-1β， P2X7R， and p-p38 MAPK（P<0.05， P<0.01） and significantly ameliorated the pathological changes in medulla oblongata tissue and trigeminal nerves of rats. ConclusionLutongning Granules had significant therapeutic effects on trigeminal neuralgia induced by injection of talc into the infraorbital foramen of model rats， and the mechanism may be related to amelioration of P2X7R-mediated neuroinflammation and inhibition of demyelination of myelinated nerves.

Objective This article aims to investigate the association between hypertension and the risk of GSD by conducting a national multicenter study,a systematic review,and a meta-analysis.Methods The study was conducted in three stages.In the first stage,subjects were recruited for health examination in four hospitals in Chengdu,Tianjin,Beijing,and Chongqing,China,from 2015 to 2020,and the multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association between hypertension and the risk of GSD in each center.In the second stage,Embase,PubMed,Wanfang Data,VIP,and CNKI databases were searched for related studies published up to May 2021,and a meta-analysis was conducted to further verify such association.In the third stage,the random effects model was used for pooled analysis of the results of the multicenter cross-sectional study and the findings of previous literature.Results A total of 633 948 participants were enrolled in the cross-sectional study,and the prevalence rate of GSD was 7.844%.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that hypertension was positively associated with the risk of GSD(P＜0.05).Subgroup analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the association between hypertension and GSD between individuals with different sexes,ages,and subtypes of GSD.A total of 80 articles were included in the systematic review and the meta-analysis,and the results showed that the risk of GSD was increased by 1.022 times for every 10 mmHg increase in diastolic pressure and 1.014 times for every 10 mmHg increase in systolic pressure.Conclusion Hypertension significantly increases the risk of GSD,and the findings of this study will provide a basis for the etiology of GSD and the identification of high-risk groups.

Objective To explore the correlation between healthcare-associated infection(HAI)and partial inde-xes in the diagnosis-related groups(DRGs)of patients in thoracic surgery intensive care unit(ICU).Methods DRGs,case mix index(CMI),relative weight(RW),and HAI of patients in thoracic surgery ICU and four subspe-cialty departments(pulmonary surgery group,esophageal surgery group,mediastinum group[mainly thymic sur-gery],and trachea group)in a tertiary chest hospital in Shanghai from January to December 2022 were retrospec-tively analyzed and compared through DRGs index grouping.Results A total of 1 429 patients in the department of thoracic surgery ICU were analyzed,including 59 HAI cases,with a HAI rate of 4.13％.The incidences of HAI in pulmonary surgery group,esophageal surgery group,mediastinum group and trachea group were 3.74％(30/803),5.84％(25/428),1.27％(2/157)and 4.88％(2/41),respectively.There was no statistically significant differ-ence in the incidences of HAI among different subspecialty groups(P＞0.05).A total of 35 DRGs were involved,with CMI of 2.75,3.41,2.35 and 1.25 in pulmonary surgery group,esophageal surgery group,mediastinum group and trachea group,respectively,and RW ranged from 0.53 to 12.62.In the pulmonary surgery group,inci-dence of HAI in male patients was higher than that in female patients.Higher RW score level was associated with higher incidence of HAI.Differences were all statistically significant(all P 0.05).Among patients in the esophageal surgery group,the age of HAI group was higher than that of the non-HAI group(P＜0.05).Higher RW score level was associated with higher incidence of HAI(P＜0.05).Among patients in the mediastinum sur-gery group,the age of patients in the infected group was higher than that in the non-infected group(P＜0.05).Among the 59 HAI cases,31 were infected with MDROs.Conclusion Focusing on CMI and RW in the DRGs in-dex system,analyzing HAI from the perspectives of disease complexity and overall technical difficulties of medical services can provide reference for the precise management of HAI in the new era.

Objective:Operational efficiency and influencing factors of China's basic medical insurance system from 2020 to 2021 is conducted to provide reference for improving the operational efficiency and optimizing the input-output relationship.Methods:The super-efficiency SBM model based on unexpected output and the Malmquist index are used to measure the static and dynamic efficiency of resident medical insurance in 31 provinces in China,and Tobit regression analysis is employed to analyze the influencing factors.Results:The overall operational efficiency of resident medical insurance still needs improvement.The operational efficiency of resident medical insurance in the central and western regions is lower than that in the eastern region,and the gap is significant.Different levels and regions have differentiated main constraints on the operational efficiency of resident medical insurance.In terms of dynamic efficiency,the total factor productivity of resident medical insurance operation shows an increasing trend,mainly due to technological progress.In terms of influencing factors,the degree of aging,the level of medical expenses and the level of medical insurance supervision have a significant impact on the operational efficiency.Suggestions:Efforts should be made to bridge regional disparities,promote the equitable development of medical insurance,reasonably control the level of medical expenses,strengthen the supervision of medical insurance funds,and implement active aging policies.

Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the bacterial communities of biting midges and ticks collected from three sites in the Poyang Lake area,namely,Qunlu Practice Base,Peach Blossom Garden,and Huangtong Animal Husbandry,and whether vectors carry any bacterial pathogens that may cause diseases to humans,to provide scientific basis for prospective pathogen discovery and disease prevention and control. Methods Using a metataxonomics approach in concert with full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing and operational phylogenetic unit(OPU)analysis,we characterized the species-level microbial community structure of two important vector species,biting midges and ticks,including 33 arthropod samples comprising 3,885 individuals,collected around Poyang Lake. Results A total of 662 OPUs were classified in biting midges,including 195 known species and 373 potentially new species,and 618 OPUs were classified in ticks,including 217 known species and 326 potentially new species.Surprisingly,OPUs with potentially pathogenicity were detected in both arthropod vectors,with 66 known species of biting midges reported to carry potential pathogens,including Asaia lannensis and Rickettsia bellii,compared to 50 in ticks,such as Acinetobacter lwoffii and Staphylococcus sciuri.We found that Proteobacteria was the most dominant group in both midges and ticks.Furthermore,the outcomes demonstrated that the microbiota of midges and ticks tend to be governed by a few highly abundant bacteria.Pantoea sp7 was predominant in biting midges,while Coxiella sp1 was enriched in ticks.Meanwhile,Coxiella spp.,which may be essential for the survival of Haemaphysalis longicornis Neumann,were detected in all tick samples.The identification of dominant species and pathogens of biting midges and ticks in this study serves to broaden our knowledge associated to microbes of arthropod vectors. Conclusion Biting midges and ticks carry large numbers of known and potentially novel bacteria,and carry a wide range of potentially pathogenic bacteria,which may pose a risk of infection to humans and animals.The microbial communities of midges and ticks tend to be dominated by a few highly abundant bacteria.

Objective Hydroquinone(HQ),one of the phenolic metabolites of benzene,is widely recognized as an important participant in benzene-induced hematotoxicity.However,there are few relevant proteomics in HQ-induced hematotoxicity and the mechanism hasn't been fully understood yet. Methods In this study,we treated K562 cells with 40 μmol/L HQ for 72 h,examined and validated protein expression changes by Label-free proteomic analysis and Parallel reaction monitoring(PRM),and performed bioinformatics analysis to identify interaction networks. Results One hundred and eighty-seven upregulated differentially expressed proteins(DEPs)and 279 downregulated DEPs were identified in HQ-exposed K562 cells,which were involved in neutrophil-mediated immunity,blood microparticle,and other GO terms,as well as the lysosome,metabolic,cell cycle,and cellular senescence-related pathways.Focusing on the 23 DEGs and 5 DEPs in erythroid differentiation-related pathways,we constructed the network of protein interactions and determined 6 DEPs(STAT1,STAT3,CASP3,KIT,STAT5B,and VEGFA)as main hub proteins with the most interactions,among which STATs made a central impact and may be potential biomarkers of HQ-induced hematotoxicity. Conclusion Our work reinforced the use of proteomics and bioinformatic approaches to advance knowledge on molecular mechanisms of HQ-induced hematotoxicity at the protein level and provide a valuable basis for further clarification.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of Tongxie yaofang （TXYF） on the symptoms of rats with irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea （IBS-D） by regulating colonic tryptophan hydroxylase 1 （TPH1）， serotonin transporter （SERT） and intestinal flora. METHODS Forty-two SD rats were randomly divided into control group （7 rats） and modeling group （35 rats）. In modeling group， rat model of IBS-D was established by intragastrical administration of 0.45 g/L senna leaf solution [10 mL/（kg·d）] combined with chronic unpredictable stimulation. Thirty-five successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model group， pinaverium bromide group [15 mg/（kg·d）] and TXYF low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups [3.75、7.5、15 g/（kg·d）， calculated by crude drug]， with 7 rats in each group. Each administration group was orally administered the corresponding drug， once a day， for 10 consecutive days. The general condition and weight changes of each group of rats were compared before modeling， after modeling and before administration， after the last drug intervention； the diarrhea index and visceral sensitivity were detected， and pathological changes of colon tissue were observed after modeling and before administration， after the last drug intervention. The level and expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT）， protein and mRNA expressions of TPH1 and SERT were determined in colon tissue. The diversity and structural changes of fecal intestinal flora of rats were analyzed. RESULTS There was no significant change in colon histopathology in each group. Compared with model group， the general condition of rats in each medication group improved. The daily body weight gain of rats was significantly increased， while diarrhea index， visceral sensitivity， the expressions of 5-HT and TPH1 in colon tissue were significantly decreased； SERT expression of colon tissue was significantly increased in TXYF medium-dose and high-dose groups （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The diarrhea index， colon TPH1 protein expression and colon 5-HT protein positive rate in the TXYF low-dose group decreased while the mRNA expression of SERT increased significantly （P＜0.05）. There was a dose- dependent trend in the effect of TXYF. Compared with model group， Chao1 index and Shannon index of the rats in TXYF high- dose group were significantly decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）， the beneficial bacteria such as Firmicutes and Lactobacillus increased significantly， while the pathogenic bacteria such as Proteobacteria， Escherichia-Shigella and Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_ group decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS TXYF can decrease the level of 5-HT and improve intestinal flora disorder by inhibiting the expression of TPH1 and up-regulating the expression of SERT in colon tissue， thus promoting the symptoms of IBS-D rats.
