Inflammatory diseases (IDs) are a general term of diseases characterized by chronic inflammation as the primary pathogenetic mechanism, which seriously affect the quality of patient′s life and cause significant social and medical burden. Current drugs for IDs include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics, and antioxidants, but these drugs may cause gastrointestinal side effects, induce or worsen infections, and cause non-response or intolerance. Given the outstanding performance of metal polyphenol network (MPN) in the fields of drug delivery, biomedical imaging, and catalytic therapy, its application in the diagnosis and treatment of IDs has attracted much attention and significant progress has been made. In this paper, we first provide an overview of the types of IDs and their generating mechanisms, then sort out and summarize the different forms of MPN in recent years, and finally discuss in detail the characteristics of MPN and their latest research progress in the diagnosis and treatment of IDs. This research may provide useful references for scientific research and clinical practice in the related fields.

Objective:To explore the potential categories of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) trajectories in women with multiple in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) failures, and to analyze the effects of different demographic characteristics and psychological factors on the potential categories of PTSD trajectories.Methods:This was a prospective empirical research, from May 2021 to October 2022, women with IVF-ET failure ≥ 2 times in the reproductive department of Shanghai First People′s Hospital from May 2021 to October 2022 were selected as the research objects. Post-traumatic stress disorder civilian version scale was used for 4 follow-ups at 3 d (T1), 10 d (T2), 20 d (T3) after the last transplantation failure and 3 d before the next transplantation cycle (T4). Telephone follow-up and online follow-up were combined to obtain the PTSD level at 4 time points. Potential categories of PTSD score trajectories at four time points were identified using a latent category growth model, and analyze influencing factors using unordered multi classification logistic analysis.Results:Totally 196 IVF-ET women were admitted, aged (29.42 ± 4.13) years. Three PTSD trajectories were fitted in this study, including 82 cases (42%) in non-PTSD group, 61 cases (31%) in mild PTSD group and 53 cases (27%) in elevated PTSD group. Logistic regression analysis showed that age, education level, fertility pressure and marital adjustment level were the predictors of PTSD trajectory in women with multiple IVF-ET failures. Compared with the non-PTSD group, women aged ≥35 years, with lower education level and marital adjustment level were more likely to enter the elevated PTSD group ( OR=4.570, 8.540, 0.949, all P<0.05). Women aged 35 years and with greater reproductive pressure were more likely to enter the mild PTSD group ( OR=3.871, 1.063, both P<0.05). Conclusions:There is group heterogeneity in the trajectories of PTSD in women with multiple IVF-ET failures in the next transplantation cycle. Old age, low education level, high fertility pressure and poor marital adjustment can predict the trajectories of PTSD. Fertility stress and marriage adjustment are changeable variables. Medical staff can relieve women′s fertility pressure through health education and mindfulness intervention, promote a good state of marriage adjustment, and minimize the adverse effects of PTSD on the next cycle of conception.

Human-animal interaction has a long-standing tradition dating back to ancient times. With the rapid advancements in intelligent chips, wearable devices, and machine algorithms, the intelligent interaction between animals and electronic technology, facilitated by electronic devices and systems for communication, perception, and control, has become a reality. These electronic devices aim to implement an animal-centric working mode to enhance human understanding of animals and promote the development of animal intelligence and creativity. This article takes medium-sized and large animals as research objects, with the goal of developing their ability enhancement, and introduces the concept of “intelligent animal augmentation system (IAAS)”. This concept is used to describe the characteristics of such devices and provides a comprehensive overview of existing animal and computer interface solutions. In general, IAAS can be divided into implantable and non-implantable types, each composed of interface platforms, perception and interpretation, control and instruction components. Through various levels of enhancement systems and architectural patterns, intelligent interaction between humans and animals can be realized. Although existing IAAS still lack a complete independent interaction system architecture, they hold great promise and development space in the future. Not only can they be applied as substitutes for cutting-edge devices and transportation equipment, but they are also expected to achieve cross-species information interaction through intelligent interconnection. Additionally, IAAS can promote bidirectional interaction between humans and animals, playing a significant role in advancing animal ethics and ecological protection. Furthermore, the development of interaction models based on animal subjects can provide insightful research experiences for the design of human-computer interaction systems, thereby contributing to the more efficient realization of the ambitious goal of human-machine integration.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of PTPN11 gene mutation and its associated gene mutations in adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML),and analyze its clinical characteristics.Methods:Second-generation sequencing and Sanger sequencing were used to detect 51 gene mutations,and multiplex-PCR was used to detect 41 fusion genes from 451 newly diagnosed adult AML patients admitted to Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University,Changzhou Second People's Hospital,Wuxi People's Hospital and Wuxi Second People's Hospital from January 2017 to July 2022.Results:Among 451 primary adult AML patients,the PTPN11 gene mutation was detected in 34 cases,and the mutation rate was 7.5％.In the 34 patients,37 PTPN11 alterations were found,which were exclusively missense mutations affecting residues located within the N-SH2(31 cases)and PTP(6 cases)domains and clustered overwhelmingly in exon 3.The platelet count of PTPN11 mutation patients was 76.5(23.5,119.0)× 109/L,which was significantly higher than 41.0(22.0,82.5)×109/L of wild-type patients(P＜0.05).While,there were no significant differences in sex,age,peripheral white blood cell count,hemoglobin,and bone marrow blast between PTPN11 mutation and wild-type patients(P＞0.05).In FAB subtypes,PTPN11 mutations were mainly distributed in M5,followed by M2 and M4,less frequently in M3 and M6.There was no significant difference in the distribution of FAB subtypes between PTPN11 mutation and wild-type patients(P＞0.05).A total of 118 AML patients were detected positive fusion gene,among which patients with PTPN11 mutations had a higher incidence of positive MLL-AF6 than wild-type ones(P＜0.01).97.1％of 34 patients with PTPN11 mutations were accompanied by other mutations,in descending order,they were respectively NPM1(38.2％),NRAS(32.4％),FLT3-ITD(32.4％),DNMT3A(32.4％)and KRAS(23.5％),etc.Conclusion:PTPN11 mutation has a certain incidence in AML patients and is clustered overwhelmingly in exon 3.ALL of them are exclusively missense mutations,and most often present in conjunction with NPM1 mutations.FAB typing of PTPN11 mutation is mostly manifested as M5 subtype,which is associated with higher platelet counts.

Objective To study the effects of different pellet feed hardness on the growth and reproduction,feed utilization rate,and environmental dust in laboratory mice.Methods One hundred of fifty 50 3-week-old SPF-grade C57BL/6JGpt and 150 ICR laboratory mice were randomly divided into three groups,with an equal number of males and females.They were fed diets with different hardness of 18.62 kg,23.15 kg,and 27.89 kg.Body weight,feed utilization rate,and dust levels in cages were recorded and calculated for mice aged 3-10 weeks.Forty-five 6-week-old male mice and ninety 4-week-old female mice from each strain were randomly divided into three groups and fed pellet feeds with three different hardness levels.After 2 weeks of adaptation to the same hardness feed,the mice were paired at a 1:2 male-to-female ratio and monitored for reproductive data for 3 months.Results At the age of 4 weeks,the body weight of male C57BL/6JGpt mice in 23.15 kg group was significantly higher than that in the 18.62 kg and 27.89 kg groups(P＜0.01),and the body weight of females in the 18.62 kg group was significantly higher than that in the 27.89 kg group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in body weight among ICR mice aged 3-10 weeks across different feed hardness groups(P＞0.05).For both strains,feed utilization rate for males was higher than that for females across different feed hardness groups at all weeks of age(P＜0.01).Compared to the 27.89 kg group,both the 18.62 kg and 23.15 kg groups showed a significant increase in the 50-mesh dust levels in cages for both strains aged 4-8 weeks(except for 7-week-old C57BL/6JGpt mice)(P＜0.05).For both C57BL/6JGpt and ICR mice,there was no significant difference in basic reproductive performance such as interval between the first litter and the monthly production index among the three feed hardness groups during the experimental period(P＞0.05).However,the monthly production index of C57BL/6JGpt mice first increased and then decreased with the increase of feed hardness,while that of ICR mice increased with increasing feed hardness,though these differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Conclusion Different strains and genders had different tolerance to feed hardness.C57BL/6JGpt mice are more adapted to lower hardness feeds,while ICR mice are better suited to slightly higher hardness feeds.

Objective To evaluate the bioequivalence of the vardenafil hydrochloride tablets in fasting and fed conditions in healthy Chinese adult subjects with the test and reference formulations.Methods A randomized,open,single-dose,two-preparation,two-sequence,two-period,crossover design was used,and 40 healthy male subjects enrolled in the fasting state and 66 healthy male subjects enrolled in the fed state.The trial was conducted in two cycles,with 20 mg of either the subject formulation or the reference formulation,vardenafil hydrochloride tablets,being administered in each cycle.The drug concentration of vardenafil in plasma was determined by the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC/MS-MS)method.Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using the non-compartment model,and the safety evaluation indexes were statistically analyzed using SAS 9.4 or above version program data statistical software.Results Arithmetic mean values of the main pharmacokinetic parameters of the subject formulation of vardenafil hydrochloride tablets and the reference formulation in the fasting state:Cmaxwere(34.94±18.33)and(36.69±19.45)ng·mL-1;AUC0-t were(74.38±34.11)and(74.25±33.37)ng·mL-1·h;AUC0-∞ were(76.70±34.36)and(76.46±33.84)ng·mL-1·h,respectively.Arithmetic mean values of the main pharmacokinetic parameters of the subject formulation of vardenafil hydrochloride tablets and the reference formulation in the fed state:Cmax were(22.84±12.48)and(21.68±11.12)ng·mL-1;AUC0_twere(70.82±35.88)and(72.71±34.63)ng·mL-1·h;AUC0-∞ were(73.48±36.44)and(75.29±35.12)ng·mL-1·h,respectively.The 90％confidence intervals for the geometric mean ratios of the main pharmacokinetic parameters such as Cmax,AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ of the prototype drug vardenafil in plasma after oral administration of 20 mg of the test and reference formulations of vardenafil tablets to the subjects in fasting and postprandial states fell within the equivalence interval of 80.00％to 125.00％.Conclusion The subject formulation of vardenafil hydrochloride tablets was bioequivalent to the reference formulation in fasting and fed conditions in healthy Chinese subjects.

Objective:To analyze the factors influencing sarcopenia in older patients with chronic diseases, both in community settings and hospitals, and to develop a risk prediction model for sarcopenia.Methods:We recruited a total of 403 older adults with chronic diseases, consisting of 251 individuals from a community in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, and 152 hospitalized patients from the Department of Geriatrics at Jiangsu Province Hospital.Assessments were conducted using a general information questionnaire, serum sample collection, the mini nutritional assessment-short form(MNA-SF), the mini-mental state examination(MMSE), and the geriatric depression scale(GDS).Binary Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify influencing factors and to construct a risk prediction model for sarcopenia, which was illustrated using a nomogram.The model's discrimination was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and the area under the curve(AUC).Results:The prevalence of sarcopenia among community-dwelling older adults with chronic conditions was found to be 4.0%(10/251).In contrast, the prevalence in hospitalized older adults with chronic conditions was significantly higher at 36.2%(55/152).Binary Logistic regression analysis identified several independent risk factors for sarcopenia, including hospitalization( OR=14.391、95% CI: 6.284-32.955、 P<0.001), male gender( OR=3.321、95% CI: 1.587-6.950、 P=0.001), lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels( OR=2.542、95% CI: 1.160-5.572、 P=0.020), cognitive impairment( OR=2.654、95% CI: 1.269-5.550、 P=0.010), and the use of four or more types of medication( OR=2.328、95% CI: 1.952-5.689、 P=0.044).Based on these risk factors, a nomogram was developed as a predictive model for assessing sarcopenia risk.The AUC for this prediction model was 0.860(95% CI: 0.815-0.912), indicating a sensitivity of 0.831 and a specificity of 0.760. Conclusions:The incidence of sarcopenia is notably high among older patients with chronic diseases.A risk prediction model that incorporates factors such as hospitalization history, gender, LDL-C levels, cognitive function, and types of medication demonstrates significant potential for predicting sarcopenia.This model serves as a valuable foundation for the early screening and intervention of sarcopenia.

Objective:To observe the effect and safety of the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)Linggui Formula(LGF)in the treatment of asthenospermia with kidney deficiency and blood stasis.Methods:This randomized controlled trial included 90 ca-ses of asthenospermia with kidney deficiency and blood stasis treated in our hospital from September 2022 to September 2023,45 by oral medication with LGF(the trial group)and the other 45 with oral levocarnitine solution(the control group),all for 12 weeks.We followed up the patients for 12 weeks,recorded the semen parameters,TCM syndrome scores,sexual hormone levels,pregnancy rates,and DNA fragmentation index(DFI)of the patients,and compared them between the two groups before and after treatment.Re-sults:Totally,82 of the patients completed the study,42 in the trial and 40 in the control group.After treatment,the patients in the trial group showed significant increases in the percentage of progressively motile sperm(PMS)(from[19.25±3.08]% to[38.57±4.99]%,P<0.05),total sperm motility(from[32.29±3.64]% to[46.50±4.77]%,P<0.05)and sperm concentration(from[83.9±37.2]to[95.1±34.9]×106/ml],P<0.05),and so did the controls in PMS(from[19.75±4.28]% to[34.46±5.07]%,P<0.05),total sperm motility(from[33.02±4.93]% to[43.11±4.72]%,P<0.05)and sperm concen-tration(from[85.2±39.7]to[88.1±35.2]×106/ml,P<0.05),all even more significant in the trial than in the control group(P<0.05).No statistically significant difference was observed in the semen volume either in the trial(from[3.38±0.38]to[3.24±0.45]ml,P>0.05)or in the control group(from[3.46±0.52]to[3.30±0.37]ml,P>0.05),or between the trial and control groups(P>0.05),or in the sexual hormone levels,pregnancy rates,and sperm DFI between the two groups before and after treatment(P>0.05).Both groups of patients had good safety profiles without serious adverse reactions.Conclusion:Linggui Formula can improve the percentage of PMS in asthenospermia patients with kidney deficiency and blood stasis,potentially enhancing pregnancy rates and with a good safety.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of Guihuang Formula(GHF)in the treatment of type Ⅲ prostatitis with the syndrome of damp-heat stasis in the essence chamber.Methods:This study included 120 cases of type Ⅲ prostatitis with damp-heat stasis syndrome in the essence chamber,which were randomly and equally divided into a GHF and a control group,the for-mer treated with GHF and the latter with Tamsulosin Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Capsules,both for 6 successive weeks.We fol-lowed up the patients for 4 weeks,recorded the NIH-CPSI,TCM symptom scores,and results of prostatic fluid routine,blood and u-rine routine,liver and kidney function and electrocardiogram examinations,and compared them between the two groups of patients be-fore and after treatment.Results:Compared with the baseline,the total NIH-CPSI scores were significantly decreased in both the GHF and control groups after 6 weeks of treatment,even more significantly in the former group(28.34±9.23 vs 6.78±3.53,P＜0.05)than in the latter(27.81±8.28 vs 14.48±4.27,P＜0.05),so were the scores on pain,voiding symptoms,quality of life(QOL)impact,TCM symptoms and WBC count(all P＜0.05),while the number of lecithin bodies remarkably increased(P＜0.05).There were statically significant differences in the above parameters at 4,6 and 10 weeks of medication(P＜0.05),but not at 2 weeks(P＞0.05).No obvious abnormalities or adverse reactions were observed in either of the two groups during the treatment.Conclusion:Guihuang Formula is safe and effective in the treatment of type Ⅲ prostatitis with the syndrome of damp-heat stasis in the essence chamber.
