OBJECTIVE
To explore the effect and mechanism of Huanglian Jiedu decoction in reducing inflammation of abscess from the perspective of lncRNA NEAT1.
METHODS
C57BL/6 mice were divided into blank group, model group, Huanglian Jiedu decoction group and control group. After the intervention, the tissue were separated and collected under anesthesia. Animal experiment: the wound tissue of each group was observed by morphology. Real-time PCR and Western blotting were used to detect lncRNA NEAT1, miR-146a-5p gene level changes and RELA, TNF-α, TGF-β1, α-SMA, Collagen Ⅲ protein expression respectively. Cell experiments: Real-time PCR was used to detect the changes of lncRNA NEAT1 and miR-146a-5p gene levels. The effect of flow cytometry on apoptosis rate was detected. Fluorescence intensity was measured by FISH. The expression of related proteins was detected by Western blotting.
RESULTS
Compared with model and control group, the wound was repaired well and the inflammatory cell infiltration in the wound of the Huanglian Jiedu decoction group was reduced. Compared with the model and control group, the level of lncRNA NEAT1 and protein expressions of RELA, TNF-α, TGF-β1 in the Huanglian Jiedu decoction group were significantly reduced, while the gene level of miR-146a-5p and the protein expressions of α-SMA and Collagen III were significantly increased(P<0.05). Compared with LPS+Lenti-control group, lncRNA NEAT1 gene level in LPS+Lenti-sh-NEAT1 group was significantly decreased, while miR-146a-5p gene level was increased(P<0.05). Flow cytometry showed that Huanglian Jiedu decoction could reduce the apoptosis rate and fluorescence intensity of lncRNA NEAT1(P<0.05). Compared with the blank group, the protein expressions of RELA, TNF-α, TGF-β1 in LPS group were significantly increased, while the protein expressions of α-SMA and Collagen III were significantly decreased (P<0.05). After sh-NEAT1 treatment, The regulatory effects of Huanglian Jiedu decoction on the expression of above molecule were reduced(P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Huanglian Jiedu decoction can alleviate the inflammatory state of mouse abscess wound through lncRNA NEAT1, which is closely related to the regulation of miR-146a, RELA, TNF-α, TGF-β1, α-SMA and Collagen III expression.

Objective To investigate the HIV-1 genotype and distribution of newly diagnosed HIV-1 cases in Fujian Province in 2020, so as to provide insights into formulation of the precise AIDS control strategy in the province. Methods Newly diagnosed HIV-1 cases without antiretroviral therapy (excluding AIDS patients) were randomly sampled from each city of Fujian Province in 2020 at a proportion of 50% of the mean number of HIV-infected cases reported across 9 cities of Fujian Province during the past three years. Subjects’ demographic and epidemiological data were collected and blood samples were collected. The HIV-1 pol gene was amplified using nested reverse-transcription PCR assay, and the gene sequences were used for HIV-1 genotyping and phylogenetic analysis. The gene sequences were uploaded to the HIV Drug Resistance Database (http://hivdb.stanford.edu) for genotypic drug resistance assays, and the scores and level of HIV drug resistance were estimated using the HIVDB Algorithm version 9.5. Results A total of 1 043 newly diagnosed HIV-1 cases were reported in Fujian Province in 2020, and 936 gene sequences were successfully obtained following sequencing of blood samples. There were 9 HIV-1 genotypes characterized in blood samples from 936 newly diagnosed HIV-1 cases, with CRF07_BC (52.1%) and CRF01_AE (30.4%) as predominant subtypes, followed by CRF08_BC (4.9%), CRF55_01B (3.0%), subtype C (2.5%), subtype B (2.1%), CRF85_BC (1.7%), CRF59_01B (0.3%) and CRF65_CPX (0.1%), and unidentified subtypes were found in 26 blood samples. HIV-1 drug resistance was detected in 43 out of the 936 newly diagnosed HIV-1 cases, with 4.6% prevalence of HIV-1 drug resistance prior to therapy, and the highest drug resistance was found in the HIV CRF59_01B subtype, followed by in CRF08_BC, B, C, CRF01_AE, CRF07_BC and other subtypes, with a significant difference in the genotype-specific prevalence of HIV-1 drug resistance (χ2 = 45.002, P < 0.05). Conclusions There was a HIV-1 genotype diversity in Fujian Province in 2020, and emerging recombinant and drug-resistant HIV-1 strains were detected and spread across patients and regions. Monitoring of HIV-1 genotypes is recommended to be reinforced for timely understanding of the transmission and spread of novel recombinant and drug-resistant HIV-1 strains.

Objective:To explore the risk factors analysis and validation of anemia after triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and risk prediction model, to provide reference for reducing the incidence of anemia after TNBC-NAC.Methods:Retrospectively, 316 female TNBC-NAC patients in the breast department of our hospital from January 2016 to July 2021 were selected as the study subjects (modeling set), and the condition of anemia after the last chemotherapy was set as the observation group. In addition, 98 breast cancer patients in 2022 were selected for validation. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the effect of Fukangning capsule on TNBC-NAC anemia. We established the risk nomogram prediction model and calibration curve of anemia after chemotherapy by using R software and conducted internal and external verification. Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to evaluate the prediction deviation between the risk prediction value of the nomogram model and the actual observed value, and the ROC curve was used to evaluate the prediction effect of the model.Results:A total of 75 (23.73%) among 316 patients developed anemia. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that menopause [ OR (95% CI)=26.739 (5.063-141.227)], RBC [ OR (95% CI)=0.168 (0.098-0.286)], Hb level [ OR (95% CI)=0.952 (0.929-0.976)], and pathological stage Ⅲ[ OR (95% CI)=4.182 (1.759-9.946)] were independent risk factors for anemia after TNBC-NAC ( P<0.05). The nomogram prediction model established based on the above factors. Hosmer-Lemeshow test results showed that the difference between the risk prediction value and the actual observed value is ( χ2=3.68, P=0.885). The correction curve approaches to the ideal curve and the average absolute error was 0.012. The area under the ROC curve was 0.945, 95% CI was 0.918-0.972, sensitivity was 0.921 and specificity was 0.853, suggesting that the model has good differentiation and calibration degree. The external validation results showed that the nomogram predicted anemia with sensitivity of 88.7%, spectificity of 85.45% and accuracy of 86.73%. Conclusion:Menopausal status, RBC, Hb level before chemotherapy and pathological stage are independent risk factors for anemia after taking TNBC-NAC. The nomogram prediction model based on the above indicators had good discrimination and calibration, and accurately predicted the possibility of anemia after TNBC-NAC.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy of five elements health exercise on improving the ability of daily living and cognitive function in elderly inpatients with schizophrenia. MethodsA total of 80 elderly patients with schizophrenia who were hospitalized in Xiamen Xianyue Hospital from May 2016 to May 2017 and met the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10) were enrolled in this study, and were randomly divided into the study group and the control group, with 40 cases in each group. Both groups received routine drug treatment, psychiatric nursing care and rehabilitation treatment, and the study group received five elements health exercise on this basis. The ability of daily living and cognitive function of patients were assessed using Barthel Index (BI) and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) before intervention, 6 months and 1 year after intervention. Additionally, the Nurses' Observation Scale for Inpatient Evaluation (NOSIE) was adopted to evaluate the changes of patients' behavior and condition before and after 1-year intervention. ResultsAt 6 months and 1 year of intervention, study group scored higher on BI (F=2.876, 3.240, P<0.05 or 0.01) and MMSE (F=4.742, 7.902, P<0.01) than control group, with statistically significant differences. After 1 year of intervention, the scores of each factor and total score of NOSIE in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (t=0.173~2.463, P<0.05). ConclusionOn the basis of routine drug therapy and routine nursing care, the implementation of five elements health exercise may improve the ability of daily living and cognitive function of elderly inpatients with schizophrenia.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between peritoneal thickness and baseline solute transport function in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients, and analyze the factors affecting the function of peritoneal transport.Methods:Non-diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients admitted to the Second Hospital of Longyan City from January 2017 to June 2019 were enrolled in this study. The thickness of the peritoneal membrane was measured by color ultrasound instrument before the peritoneal catheterization. Standard peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was performed after one month of peritoneal dialysis. The ratio of corrected creatine in 4 h dialysate to 2 h serum creatine (D/Pcr) was used as a solute baseline transport index, and according to the D/Pcr evaluation results, the patients were divided into high/high average transfer (H) group (D/Pcr≥0.65) and low/low average transfer (L) group (D/Pcr<0.65). The clinical data, peritoneal thickness and peritoneal dialysis related indicators between the two groups of patients were compared. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors affecting the function of peritoneal transport.Results:The amount of peritoneal ultrafiltration in H group was significantly lower than that in L group, intraperitoneal creatinine clearance (Ccr) and peritoneal thickness were significantly higher than those in L group (both P<0.05). Pearson and Spearman correlation results showed that the thickness of peritoneal membrane positively correlated with D/Pcr ( r=0.673, P<0.05), peritoneal Ccr ( r=0.261, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with ultrafiltration of peritoneal dialysis ( r=-0.365, P<0.05). Partial correlation analysis showed that the peritoneal thickness was positively correlated with the solute transport index D/Pcr ( r=0.539, P<0.05) and the peritoneal Ccr ( r=0.338, P<0.05). Binary logistic regression results showed that peritoneal thickening was a risk factor affecting peritoneal transport function ( OR=1.175, 95% CI 1.009-1.369, P<0.05). Conclusions:There is a positive correlation between the peritoneal membrane thickness and the baseline solute transport index in patients with non-diabetic peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal thickening is a risk factor affecting peritoneal transport function.
