Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） is a common chronic liver disease with the pathological feature of lipid accumulation in the liver， and it is closely associated with liver metabolic disorders. The latest research has shown that the pathogenesis of MAFLD is associated with the abnormal expression of specific genes， especially the fat mass and obesity-associated （FTO） gene. The abnormal activity of the FTO gene may lead to an imbalance in liver lipid metabolism， which manifests as the increase in fatty acid synthesis and the reduction in fatty acid oxidation， thereby promoting liver fat deposition and inflammatory response. Therefore， regulating the expression or activity of the FTO gene is considered one of the potential strategies for the treatment of MAFLD. At present， drug research targeting the function of the FTO gene has achieved preliminary results， and inhibition of the activity of the FTO gene can help to regulate liver lipid metabolism and alleviate liver inflammatory injury. This article reviews the mechanism of action of the FTO gene in the development and progression of MAFLD， summarizes the advances in drug research on the FTO gene and related metabolic pathways in recent years， and analyzes their application prospect in research and treatment.

Aim To establish NCI-H446/EP for small cell lung cancer resistant cells resistant to cisplatin and etoposide, and to evaluate their biological characteristics and multidrug resistance. Methods Nude mice were subcutaneously inoculated with NCI-H446 cells of SCLC to construct an in vivo model of xenograft tumor, and were given first-line EP regimen treatment for SCLC, inducing drug resistance in vivo, and stripping tumor tissue in vitro culture to obtain drug-resistant cells. The resistance coefficient, cell doubling time, cell cycle distribution, expression of multidrug resistance gene (MDR1), and drug resistance-related protein were detected in vitro, and the drug resistance to cisplatin and etoposide in vivo were verified. Results Mice with NCI-H446 tumors acquired resistance after eight weeks' EP regimen treatment, and the drug-resistant cell line NCI-H446/EP was obtained by isolation and culture in vitro. The resistance factors of this cell line to cisplatin, etoposide, SN38 and doxorubicin were 12.01, 18.36, 65.4 and 10.12, respectively. Compared with parental cells, the proportion of NCIH446/EP cells in Q

The outer membrane composed predominantly of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is an essential biological barrier for most Gram-negative (G^-) bacteria. Lipopolysaccharide transport protein (Lpt) complex LptDE is responsible for the critical final stage of LPS transport and outer membrane assembly. The structure and function of LptDE are highly conserved in most G^- bacteria but absent in mammalian cells, and thus LptDE complex is regarded as an attractive antibacterial target. In recent 10 years, the deciphering of the three-dimensional structure of LptDE protein facilities the drug discovery based on such "non-enzyme" proteins. Murepavadin, a peptidomimetic compound, was reported to be the first compound able to target LptD, enlightening a new class of antibacterial molecules with novel mechanisms of action. This article is devoted to summarize the molecular characteristics, structure-function of LptDE protein complex and review the development of murepavadin and related peptidomimetic compounds, in order to provide references for relevant researches.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of the Shewhart control chart-based assessment and early warning system in prevention of medical device-related pressure injury(MDRPI).Methods:152 critically ill patients admitted to Hebei Central Hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were selected and divided into a control group and an observation group based on different methods of assessing MDRPI risk,with 76 cases in each group.The control group adopted the Braden scale to assess the risk of MDRPI.The observation group adopted a safety early warning system based on Shewhart control charts to assess the risk of MDRPI in patients.Nursing measures were undertaken according to MDRPI risk grade in both groups.The occurrence of adverse events of MDRPI,nursing safety quality and nursing comprehensive quality were compared between the two groups.Results:The incidence rate of head,neck and face adverse events of MDRPI and the total incidence of adverse events of MDRPI of the patients in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(x2=4.802,5.758,P<0.05).The safety quality and comprehensive quality of nursing of 20 nurses in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(t=6.654,7.172,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of assessment and early warning system based on Shewhart control chart in clinical nursing management can effectively reduce the incidence of MDRPI adverse events and improve the quality of nursing safety and comprehensive nursing.

Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most effective revascularization treatments for coronary heart disease. Secondary prevention strategies, which rely on antiplatelet and lipid-lowering drugs, are crucial after CABG to ensure the durability of revascularization treatment effects and prevent adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events in the medium to long term. Previous research conducted by Professor Zhao Qiang's team from Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, known as the DACAB study, indicated that dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT, specifically ticagrelor+aspirin) after CABG can enhance venous graft patency. However, it remains uncertain whether DAPT can further improve the medium to long-term clinical outcomes of CABG patients. Recently, the team reported the medium to long-term follow-up results of the DACAB study, termed the DACAB-FE study, finding that DAPT administered after CABG can reduce the incidence of major cardiovascular events over five years and improve patients' medium to long-term clinical outcomes. This article will interpret the methodological highlights and significant clinical implications of the DACAB-FE study.

Objective To evaluate the clinical benefit of caffeine treatment regimen determined based on oxygen discontinuation as target orientation for oxygen-dependent preterm infants.Methods A total of 219 preterm infants admitted to the neonatal department of this hospital from October 2021 to September 2023 were selected and divided into the intervention group (caffeine treatment targeting weaning oxygen,n=108) and the control group (routine caffeine treatment,n=111).The differences in the apnea recurrence,reuse of caffeine,time of caffeine discontinuation,duration of using oxygen and hospitalization duration were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the correcting fetal age by stopping caffe-ine in the intervention group was greater[(35.9±1.7)weeks vs.(34.4±1.5)weeks],hospitalization dura-tion was longer[(64.62±20.60)d vs.(57.96±17.68)d],and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).The apnea recurrence rate,reuse rate of caffeine,duration of oxygen use,incidence rate of moder-ate to severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia,mechanical ventilation use rate,hospitalization expenses,≥grade Ⅱ necrotizing enterocolitis,feeding intolerance,tachycardia incidence rate and body weight increase velocity had no statistical differences between the two groups (P>0.05).Conclusion Determining the caffeine treatment course regimen by oxygen discontinuation as target orientation could not reduce the recurrent risk of preterm infants apnea recurrence risk,which could prolong the hospitalization duration.

Objective To investigate the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndromes and related risk factors in children with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP).Methods The clinical data of 420 children with MPP admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine were collected.The clinical data included gender,age,history of respiratory tract diseases,TCM syndromes,MPP classification,cough duration,fever duration,fever peak value,laboratory indicators of C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT)and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),and the complication of infection.SPSS 26.0 software was used for data statistics,and then the distribution of TCM syndromes in children with MPP and its correlation with various clinical data,as well as the related risk factors of MPP with different classification and various TCM syndromes were explored.Results(1)Among the 420 children with MPP,there were 283 cases(67.4％)of mild MPP,76 cases(18.1％)of refractory MPP,and 61 cases(14.5％)of severe MPP.For the distribution of TCM syndromes,there were 152 cases(36.2％)of wind-heat obstructing the lung syndrome,141 cases(33.6％)of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung syndrome,77 cases(18.3％)of damp-heat obstructing the lung syndrome,25 cases(6.0％)of toxin-heat obstructing the lung syndrome,16 cases(3.8％)of lung-spleen qi deficiency syndrome,and 9 cases(2.1％)of yin deficiency and lung heat syndrome.For the classification of infection,there were 295 cases(70.2％)of simple mycoplasma pneumoniae(MP)infection and 125 cases(29.8％)of mixed infection.(2)There were statistically significant differences in age stratification and visit season among MPP children with different TCM syndromes(P＜0.01),while no significant differences were shown in the gender,history of respiratory tract diseases,and the complication of infection(P＞0.05).(3)There were statistically significant differences in the visit season,history of respiratory tract diseases,and the complication of infection among the children with various MPP types(P＜0.05),while no significant differences were shown in the gender and age stratification(P＞0.05).(4)There were statistically significant differences in laboratory indicators of CRP and PCT and in the symptoms of cough duration,fever duration and fever peak among MPP children with different TCM syndromes(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(5)Significant differences were presented in laboratory indicators of PCT and LDH and in the symptoms of cough duration,fever duration and fever peak value among the children with different MPP types(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(6)Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that CRP level ≥10.5 mg/L and wind-heat obstructing the lung syndrome were the independent risk factors for mild MPP(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);fever duration≥7 days,cough duration ≥ 12 days and phlegm-heat obstructing the lung syndrome were the independent risk factors for refractory MPP(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);cough duration ≥ 12 days,mixed infection and toxin-heat obstructing the lung syndrome were the independent risk factors for severe MPP(P＜0.01).Conclusion The results indicated that the classification MPP in children is predominated by mild MPP,and their TCM syndrome types is predominated by wind-heat obstructing the lung syndrome.The proportions of refractory MPP and damp-heat obstructing the lung syndrome increase significantly in autumn,which may be related to the characteristics of regional environment and circuit qi.The increase of CRP level and fever peak may be related to phlegm-heat obstructing the lung syndrome and toxin-heat obstructing the lung syndrome.In clinic,attention should be paid to the early use of heat-clearing and phlegm-resolving drugs or heat-clearing and toxin-removing drugs;children with the history of respiratory tract diseases and mixed infections are more likely to develop into severe MPP,and the physicians should be alert clinically.Wind-heat obstructing the lung syndrome,phlegm-heat obstructing the lung syndrome and toxin-heat obstructing the lung syndrome are the independent risk factor separately for mild MPP,refractory MPP and severe MPP,which requires timely intervention to prevent mild MPP from developing into refractory MPP or severe MPP in clinic.

Objective To analyze the research status,hot directions and frontier trends of traditional Chinese medicine in the prevention and treatment of diseases by regulating Wnt signaling pathway based on bibliometrics.Methods Based on Citespace and Vosviewer bibliometric software,the literature on the regulation of Wnt signaling pathway by traditional Chinese medicine in CNKI and WoSCC was visually analyzed.Results As of April 2023,607 and 257 related literatures were published in Chinese and English respectively.Since 2008,the number of literatures published in this field has shown a fluctuating increasing trend.China is the country with the most publications;guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine were the institutions with the most publications in the Chinese database,and Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine was the institution with the most publications in the English literature database.Combined with the research direction of each research team and keyword clustering and burst analysis,the research hotspots of traditional Chinese medicine regulating Wnt signaling pathway are focused on osteoporosis,osteoarthritis and renal fibrosis.Diseases such as gastric cancer and breast cancer have become emerging research directions in recent years.Electroacupuncture therapy to promote stem cell proliferation and treat neurological diseases is one of the frontier research trends in this field.The mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine regulating the interaction between Wnt and NF-kappaB signaling pathway to prevent and treat diseases has great research potential.Conclusion In recent years,the prevention and treatment of diseases by traditional Chinese medicine targeting Wnt signaling pathway has developed rapidly.Various expert teams have obtained rich research results,and the research hotspots show a diversified trend.In-depth exploration of this can provide strong evidence for the molecular mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of various diseases.
