Objective: To explore the effect of YTH domain family protein 1(YTHDF1) on the activation, proliferation and migration of hepatic stellate cells(HSCs) by regulating mitochondrial fission mediated by mitochondrial fission protein 1(Fis1). Methods: The mouse hepatic stellate cell line JS-1 was treated with 5 ng/ml TGF-β1 for 24 h to induce its activation and proliferation, andYTHDF1-siRNA was used to construct aYTHDF1silencing model.The experiment was divided into Control group, TGF-β1 group, TGF-β1+si-NC group and TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group.Expression changes ofYTHDF1,Fis1and key indicators of fibrosis, type Ⅰ collagen(CollagenⅠ) and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA) were detected through reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR) and Western blot; CCK-8 was used to detect cell proliferation ability; Transwell migration assay and cell scratch assay were used to detect cell migration ability; immunofluorescence staining experiment was used to detect the effect ofYTHDF1onFis1-mediated mitochondrial fission; finally, JC-1 staining was used to experimentally detect the effect ofYTHDF1on mitochondrial membrane potential. Results: Compared with the Control group, RT-qPCR and Western blot experimental results showed that the expression ofYTHDF1andFis1increased in the TGF-β1 group(P<0.05,P<0.01;P<0.000 1), as well as the fibrosis markersCollagenⅠand the expression level of α-SMA increased(P<0.01;P<0.001,P<0.000 1); while adding CCK-8, the experimental results showed that the proliferation ability of HSCs in the TGF-β1 group was enhanced(P<0.000 1); Transwell experimental results showed that the migration ability of HSCs in the TGF-β1 group was enhanced(P<0.01); the cell scratch experiment results showed that the migration ability of HSCs in the TGF-β1 group was enhanced(P<0.000 1); the immunofluorescence experiment results showed that the TGF-β1 group Mito-Tracker Red staining andFis1co-localization signal increased(P<0.05); JC-1 staining experiment results showed that the mitochondrial membrane potential increased in the TGF-β1 group(P<0.01). Compared with the TGF-β1+si-NC group, RT-qPCR and Western blot experimental results showed that the expression ofYTHDF1andFis1in the TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group was reduced(P<0.01;P<0.001), and fibrosis markers the levels ofCollagenⅠandα-SMAwere reduced(P<0.01;P<0.001,P<0.01).CCK-8 experimental results showed that the proliferation ability of HSCs in the TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group was weakened(P<0.000 1); Transwell experiment results showed that the migration ability of HSCs in the TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group was weakened(P<0.001); cell scratch experiment results showed that the migration ability of HSCs in the TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group was weakened(P<0.000 1); immunofluorescence experiment results showed that the Mito-Tracker Red staining andFis1co-localization signal decreased in the TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group(P<0.01); JC-1 staining experiment results showed that mitochondrial membrane potential decreased in the TGF-β1+si-YTHDF1 group(P<0.05). Conclusion YTHDF1promotes the activation, proliferation and migration capabilities of HSCs by positively regulatingFis1-mediated mitochondrial fission. This suggests thatYTHDF1may be a key gene involved in regulating the activation, proliferation and migration of HSCs.

Objective To assess the potential role of disulfidptosis-related genes (DRGs) in pan-cancer on prognosis and immunity on the basis of bioinformatics approaches. Methods Pan-cancer RNA-seq data, mutation profiles, clinical information, TMB, MSI, stemness scores, and tumor and immune microenvironment data contained in TCGA and various open-source online databases, and multi-group R-language algorithms were used for comprehensive analysis. The expression levels of DRGs at the cellular level were experimentally validated using qPCR. Results LRPPRC, NCKAP1, NDUFS1, and NUBPL had a better prognosis in renal clear cell carcinoma (P<0.001), whereas SLC7A11, NCKAP1, and SLC3A2 had a worse prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (P<0.001). TME analysis showed that LRPPRC was negatively correlated with immune cells, stromal cells, and estimated scores in all tumor types. TMB analysis revealed the potential research value of DRGs for PD-1/PD-L1 therapy in pan-cancer. Drug sensitivity analysis showed that SLC7A11 (r=0.454), SLC3A2 (r=0.366), and NCKAP1 (r=0.455) were significantly associated with Kahalide F (P<0.01). Experimental validation demonstrated the overall higher expression levels of GYS1 and NCKAP1 than normal cells in lung adenocarcinoma, colon adenocarcinoma, esophageal squamous carcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma (P<0.05). Conclusion Pan-cancer analysis of DRGs indicates that DRGs may serve as important biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of renal clear-cell carcinoma, lung adenocarcinoma, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

The case group was divided into high intraocular pressure group, suspected glaucoma group, and early glaucoma group based on the examination results. All study subjects underwent comprehensive ophthalmic examination, white-on-white perimetry(W/W)and B/Y examination, and swept source optical coherence tomography(SS-OCT)was used to scan the optic disc and macula to obtain relevant parameters. The value of B/Y combined with macular GCIPL in the diagnosis of open angle glaucoma was analyzed.RESULTS: In the case group, 30 cases(52 eyes)were diagnosed with early primary open angle glaucoma, 46 cases(82 eyes)were suspected of open angle glaucoma, and 24 cases(40 eyes)were diagnosed with high intraocular pressure. The W/W mean defect(MD)and B/Y-MD values in the early glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group. The W/W pattern standard deviation(PSD)and B/Y-PSD values were higher than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group(all P<0.05). The W/W-MD and B/Y-MD values in the suspected glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group and the high intraocular pressure group(all P<0.05). The B/Y-MD values in the high intraocular pressure group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05). The parameters of GCIPL in the macular area of the early glaucoma group were lower than those of the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group(all P<0.05). The minimum GCIPL in the macular area of the suspected glaucoma group, as well as the upper and lower temporal areas, were lower than those of the control group and the high intraocular pressure group(all P<0.05). The average, upper, lower, temporal, 5:00, 6:00, and 12:00 positions of the retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL)parameters around the optic disc in the early glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group(all P<0.05). The average and upper RNFL parameters in the suspected glaucoma group were lower than those in the control group and high intraocular pressure group. The rim area of the optic nerve head(ONH)parameters in the early glaucoma group was smaller than that in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group, while the horizontal and vertical cup-to-disc ratio was higher than those in the control group, high intraocular pressure group, and suspected glaucoma group; the rim area of the suspected glaucoma group was smaller than that of the control group and high intraocular pressure group, and the horizontal and vertical cup-to-disc ratio were higher than those of the control group and high intraocular pressure group(all P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn, and the results showed that visual field parameters, macular GCIPL parameters, and RNFL parameters had certain diagnosibility for early open angle glaucoma and suspected glaucoma. Decision curve was drawn, and the results showed that when the threshold was between 0 and 1.0, the net return rate of diagnosing early open angle glaucoma with the combination of B/Y and macular GCIPL parameters was higher than the individual diagnostic efficacy of each indicator.CONCLUSION: The combination of B/Y and macular GCIPL detection can be an important means for the early diagnosis of glaucoma.

ObjectiveTo establish the specific chromatogram and quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker（QAMS） based on linear calibration using two reference substances（LCTRS）， explore the consistency between Hedyotis Herba dispensing granules and standard decoction， and evaluate the quality of the dispensing granules. MethodsHigh performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） specific chromatogram was established based on 15 batches of Hedyotis Herba standard decoction and 10 batches of the dispensing granules， and LCTRS was used to locate chromatographic peaks. The actual retention times of 7 characteristic peaks in the specific chromatogram was measured on 24 different types of C₁₈ columns， taking deacetyl asperulosidic acid and asperulosidic acid as the dual standard compounds， the retention times of the other 5 characteristic peaks were predicted and validated. Based on this， QAMS was developed to determine the contents of four components（deacetyl asperulosidic acid， deacetyl asperulosidic acid methyl ester， asperulosidic acid， and p-coumaric acid）. Then， the relative correction factors of deacetyl asperulosidic acid， deacetyl asperulosidic acid methyl ester and p-coumaric acid were calculated using the reference peak of asperulosidic acid in the dual standard compounds， and each component was quantified accordingly. Finally， the consistency between the dispensing granules and standard decoction was assessed by taking extract rate of the standard decoction， consistency of the specific chromatograms， contents and transfer rates of the indicator components as indexes， and the quality of the dispensing granules was evaluated. ResultsThere were 7 common peaks in the characteristic chromatogram of samples of Hedyotis Herba standard decoction and the dispensing granules， and four of them were identified by reference standards， namely deacetyl asperulosidic acid（peak 1）， deacetyl asperulosidic acid methyl ester（peak 3）， asperulosidic acid（peak 6） and p-coumaric acid（peak 7）. The similarity between the dispensing granules and the standard decoction was >0.9. The absolute deviation in the predicted retention time for each component by LCTRS was lower than that of the relative retention time method. The extract rate of the 15 batches of Hedyotis Herba standard decoction ranged from 7.89% to 14.60%， the contents of deacetyl asperulosidic acid， deacetyl asperulosidic acid methyl ester， asperulosidic acid and p-coumaric acid were 6.62-19.70， 3.83-17.99， 1.57-6.69， 1.62-4.52 mg·g^-1， and the transfer rates of these components from decoction pieces to the standard decoction were 22.89%-39.60%， 34.03%-62.24%， 24.25%-43.70%， and 40.58%-73.71%， respectively. The extract rate， index component contents and transfer rates from decoction pieces to the three batches of Hedyotis Herba dispensing granules（P1-P3）， produced by manufacturer A， were similar to those of the standard decoction prepared from the same batch of decoction pieces， and all fell within the specified range. The contents of the 4 indicator components in 7 batches of the dispensing granules（P4-P10） from manufacturers B-E were all within the range of the content converted from the standard decoction based on the quantity of the dispensing granules. ConclusionThe established specific chromatogram and QAMS based on LCTRS are reasonable and reliable. Based on the evaluation indicators of standard decoction yield， consistency of specific chromatograms， contents and transfer rates of the four index components， the 10 batches of Hedyotis Herba dispensing granules from various manufacturers have exhibited good consistency with the standard decoction， indicating that the current production process is relatively reasonable.

AIM: To analyze the changes of retinal structure and function before and after panretinal photocoagulation(PRP)in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR).METHODS: Prospective study. Totally 98 cases(98 eyes)of PDR patients who underwent PRP in Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2022 to May 2023 were included. Optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)was used to detect central retinal thickness(CRT), central macular thickness(CMT), subfoveal choroidal thickness(SFCT), foveal avascular zone(FAZ), deep vascular complex(DVC)blood flow density, superficial vascular complex(SVC)blood flow density before and at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after PRP. During the follow-up, 1 eye underwent vitrectomy, 2 eyes were lost to follow-up, and finally 95 eyes completed 1 a follow-up, with a loss rate of 3%. According to the visual prognosis at 1 a after treatment, the patients were divided into two groups: 73 eyes in good prognosis group and 22 eyes in poor prognosis group(including 9 eyes of visual disability and 13 eyes of visual regression). The changes in retinal structure and function before and after PRP treatment were compared between the two groups of patients, and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and decision curve were used to analyze the predictive value of retinal structure and function for PDR treatment.RESULTS: There were statistical significant differences in PDR staging, CRT, CMT, SFCT, DVC blood flow density, and SVC blood flow density between the two groups of patients before treatment(all P<0.05). At 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after treatment, the FAZ area of both groups decreased compared to before treatment, while the blood flow density of DVC and SVC increased compared to before treatment(both P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the blood flow density of FAZ, DVC, and SVC between the two groups at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after treatment(all P>0.05). The CRT, CMT and SFCT of the two groups at 1 wk after treatment were higher than those before treatment(all P<0.05), but there were no significant differences between the two groups(all P>0.05). The CRT, CMT and SFCT at 1 and 3 mo after treatment were lower than those at 1 wk after treatment and before treatment in both groups. The CRT, CMT and SFCT in the poor prognosis group at 3 mo after treatment were higher than those at 1 mo after treatment, and were higher than those in the good prognosis group(all P<0.05). ROC analysis showed that, at 3 mo after laser treatment in PDR patients, the area under the curve of the CRT, CMT, and SFCT alone or in combination after treatment for 1 a was 0.788, 0.781, 0.783, and 0.902, respectively, and the combined prediction value was better(P<0.05). Decision curve analysis showed that the combined detection of CRT, CMT, and SFCT in PDR patients at 3 mo after treatment can improve the predictive value of visual prognosis.CONCLUSION: The optimal time for retinal structure and function recovery in PDR patients after PRP treatment is between 1 wk and 1 mo. OCTA measurement of CRT, CMT, and SFCT at 3 mo after treatment can predict the visual prognosis during the 1 a treatment period.

ObjectiveTo construct a family-centered care model for children with tuberculosis based on the double ABC-X model, and to evaluate its clinical effects. MethodsFrom December 2022 to October 2023, 64 newly admitted children with tuberculosis who met the criteria and their caregivers were recruited from the tuberculosis department of Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center were randomly divided into an experimental group (32 cases) and a control group (32 cases).The control group was given a conventional health care, while the experimental group was given a family-centered health care intervention based on the double ABC-X model, in which a multidisciplinary care team provided personalized information and emotional support for the caregivers and their children. Medication adherence of the children, caregiver’s teading burden, and disease management competence were compared between the 2 groups. ResultsA total of 29 cases in the experimental group and 27 cases in the control group completed the intervention. At 12 weeks of intervention, the medication adherence score (7.72±0.45 vs 7.41±0.50, P<0.05) and disease management competence score (36.97±7.85 vs 31.56±7.30, P<0.05) were higher in the experimental group than that in the control group while the caregiving burden score (31.79±13.40 vs 40.04±9.01, P<0.05) and difficulty of disease management score (30.41±12.41 vs 38.56±9.48, P<0.05) were lower than that in the control group. At 24 weeks of intervention, the medication adherence score (7.34±0.97 vs 6.70±1.14, P<0.05) and disease management competence score (42.07±6.93 vs 35.63±7.32, P<0.05) were higher in the experimental group than that in the control group as well, but the caregiving burden score (31.62±11.72 vs 39.63±10.17, P<0.05) and difficulty of disease management score (30.59±10.87 vs 37.81±9.32, P<0.05) were lower than that in the control group. ConclusionFamily-centered care based on the double ABC-X model can effectively promote medication adherence among children with tuberculosis, reduce caregivers’ care burden and disease management difficulties, and improve caregiver’s disease management competence.
