ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of salidroside against nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and its mechanism of action. MethodsA total of 24 male KM mice were randomly divided into normal group, HFD group, HFD+blank control group, and HFD+salidroside group, with 6 mice in each group. The mice in the normal group were given normal diet, and those in the other groups were given high-fat diet. After 14 weeks of modeling, the mice were given salidroside 100 mg/kg/day by gavage, and related samples were collected at the end of week 22. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the serum levels of related biochemical parameters including alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C); HE staining and NAFLD activity score (NAS) were used to observe the liver histopathology of mice; Western blot was used to measure the changes in the expression of NAMPT, Sirt1, AMPKα, and SREBP1 in liver tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the normal group, the HFD group had obvious steatosis and extensive large lipid droplets in liver tissue, with significant increases in NAS score (P<0.01) and the content of AST, ALT, TG, TC, and LDL-C in peripheral blood (all P<0.05) and a significant reduction in the content of HDL-C (P<0.05), as well as significant reductions in the expression levels of NAMPT, AMPKα, and Sirt1 in liver tissue (all P<0.05) and a significant increase in the expression level of SERBP1 (P<0.01). Compared with the HFD group and the HFD+blank control group, the HFD+salidroside group had reductions in the distribution of vacuolar lipid droplets and intralobular inflammation in liver tissue, alleviation of the ballooning degeneration of hepatocytes, significant reductions in NAS score (P<0.01) and the content of AST, ALT, TG, and LDL-C in peripheral blood (all P<0.05), and a significant increase in the content of HDL-C (P<0.05), as well as significant increases in the expression levels of NAMPT, AMPKα, and Sirt1 in liver tissue (all P<0.05) and a significant reduction in the expression level of SERBP1 (P<0.01). ConclusionSalidroside can significantly improve the pathological state of mice with NAFLD induced by high-fat diet and exert a protective effect against NAFLD by increasing the expression of NAMPT, Sirt1, and AMPKα and reducing the expression of SERBP1.

Traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage commonly presents in traumatic brain injury patients, and it may lead to complications such as meningitis, ventriculitis, brain abscess, subdural hematoma or tension pneumocephalus. When misdiagnosed or inappropriately treated, traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage may result in severe complications and may be life-threatening. Some traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage has concealed manifestations and is prone to misdiagnosis. Due to different sites and mechanisms of trauma and degree of cerebrospinal fluid leak, treatments for traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage varies greatly. Hence, the Craniocerebral Trauma Professional Group of Neurosurgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Neurological Injury Professional Group of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage in adults ( version 2023)" based on existing clinical evidence and experience. The consensus consisted of 16 recommendations, covering the leakage diagnosis, localization, treatments, and intracranial infection prevention, so as to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage and improve the overall prognosis of the patients.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of social support between adult attachment and family resilience in young and middle-aged patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis, and to provide reference for psychological health care of young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients.Methods:From September 2019 to February 2022, the prospective research method was adopted to investigate a total of 100 young and middle-aged patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis by general information questionnaire, Experiences in Close Relationship Scale-short form, Social Support Rating Scale, Family Resilience Scale, respectively. Multiple linear regression and structural equation model was used to evaluate the mediating effect of social support on adult attachment and family resilience.Results:The scores of attachment avoidance and attachment anxiety in Experiences in Close Relationship Scale-short form were (46.47 ± 10.23) points and (63.67 ± 10.37) points; Social Support Rating Scale scores were (36.40 ± 7.27) points; Family Resilience Scale scores were (94.21 ± 11.40) points. There was a negative correlation of attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance with total score and each dimension score of Social Support Rating Scale and total score and each dimension score of Family Resilience Scale ( r values were -0.844--0.373, all P<0.05). Attachment anxiety and attachment avoidance had a significantly indirect effect on the family resilience of young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients through social support, which showed that the mediating effect of social support accounts for 41.6% and 48.8% of the total effect. Conclusions:Social support plays a mediating role in the relationship between adult attachment and family resilience in young and middle-aged peritoneal dialysis patients, nurses can focus on social support to reduce the adverse effects of adult attachment on family resilience.

Objective:To explore the correlation between the expression of signaling lymphocyte activation molecule family 6 (SLAMF6) on peripheral blood CD8 +T cells and perforin and granzyme B and the clinical significance in patients with newly diagnosed severe aplastic anemia(SAA). Methods:The indicators of blood routine and bone marrow and peripheral blood samples of 32 newly diagnosed SAA patients admitted to Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2016 to June 2019 were collected for retrospective analysis. Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of SLAMF6, perforin and granzyme B on samples CD8 +T cell before therapy and 6 months after therapy (11 cases received transplantation, 21 cases received immunosuppressive therapy [IST]). Spearman correlation analysis was performed to determine the association between clinical indicators and laboratory test results. The expression of SLAMF6, perforin and granzyme B was also detected in 10 healthy people (normal group) and 13 myelodysplastic syndromes/paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (MDS/PNH) patients (MDS/PNH group). Results:(1) At diagnosis: the expression of SLAMF6 was significantly lower in the SAA group than that in the normal group and the MDS/PNH group ([56.40±6.37]% vs [84.34±5.81]% and [82.24±4.98]% (both P<0.001]). The expression of perforin was significantly higher in the SAA group (32.73±8.46) than that in the normal control group (23.75%±5.10%), and the MDS/PNH group (26.12%±5.53%) (both P<0.05). The expression of granzyme B was also significantly higher in the SAA group (36.23%±7.94%) than that in the normal control group (21.67%±5.05%) and the MDS/PNH group (21.79%±5.10%) (both P<0.001). The expression of SLAMF6 was positively correlated with the hemoglobin ( r=0.804), and reticulocyte absolute values ( r=0.656) in peripheral blood, percentage of granulocytes ( r=0.643) and erythrocytes ( r=0.622) in bone marrow of SAA patients (all P<0.05). Expression of SLAMF6 was negatively correlated with perforin ( r=-0.792) and granzyme B ( r=-0.908) on CD8 +T cells in patients with SAA (both P<0.001). (2) After treatment: the expression of SLAMF6 in peripheral blood CD8 +T cells of 30 surviving patients was higher than pre-treatment ([79.19±12.69]% vs [56.40±6.37]%, P<0.001). The expressions of perforin and granzyme B were lower than pre-treatment level (both P<0.05). The expression of SLAMF6 on CD8 +T cells in 11 transplanted patients was higher than before transplantation ([86.54±3.75]% vs [56.40±7.35]%, P<0.001). The expressions of perforin and granzyme B were lower than before transplantation (both P<0.05). The expression of SLAMF6 on CD8 +T cells in 12 IST-respond patients was higher than that before treatment, while the perforin and granzyme B levels were lower than pre-treatment (all P<0.05). The post-treatment expressions of SLAMF6, perforin and granzyme B were similar as before treatment levels in 7 IST-unrespond patients (all P>0.05). Conclusion:SLAMF6 is significantly down-regulated on CD8 +T cells in newly diagnosed SAA, negatively correlated with the effective factors of CD8 +T cells, which might participate in the immune regulatory of CD8 +T cells as a negative regulatory factor in patients with SAA. The SLAMF6 is significantly up-regulated after hematopoietic recovery, while there is no significant change in treatment-unrespond patients, which could thus serve as an useful diagnostic and therapeutic index of patients with SAA.
