Based on the strategy of metabolomics combined with bioinformatics, this study analyzed the potential allergens and mechanism of pseudo-allergic reactions (PARs) induced by the combined use of Reduning injection and penicillin G injection. All animal experiments and welfare are in accordance with the requirements of the First Affiliated Experimental Animal Ethics and Animal Welfare Committee of Henan University of Chinese Medicine (approval number: YFYDW2020002). Based on UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technology combined with UNIFI software, a total of 21 compounds were identified in Reduning and penicillin G mixed injection. Based on molecular docking technology, 10 potential allergens with strong binding activity to MrgprX2 agonist sites were further screened. Metabolomics analysis using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technology revealed that 34 differential metabolites such as arachidonic acid, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylserine, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes were endogenous differential metabolites of PARs caused by combined use of Reduning injection and penicillin G injection. Through the analysis of the "potential allergen-target-endogenous differential metabolite" interaction network, the chlorogenic acids (such as chlorogenic acid, neochlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, and isochlorogenic acid A) and

Exploring the risk "time interval window" of sequential medication of Reduning injection (RDN) and penicillin G injection (PG) by detecting the correlation between serum biochemical indexes and plasma metabonomic characteristics, in order to reduce the risk of adverse reactions caused by the combination of RDN and PG. All animal experiments and welfare are in accordance with the requirements of the First Affiliated Experimental Animal Ethics and Animal Welfare Committee of Henan University of Chinese Medicine (approval number: YFYDW2020002). The changes of biochemical indexes in serum of rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. It was determined that RDN combined with PG could cause pseudo-allergic reactions (PARs) activated by complement pathway. Further investigation was carried out at different time intervals (1.5, 2, 3.5, 4, 6, and 8 h PG+RDN). It was found that sequential administration within 3.5 h could cause significant PARs. However, PARs were significantly reduced after administration interval of more than 4 h. LC-MS was used for plasma metabolomics analysis, and the levels of serum biochemical indicators and plasma metabolic profile characteristics were compared in parallel. 22 differential metabolites showed similar or opposite trends to biochemical indicators before and after 3.5 h. And enriched to 10 PARs-related pathways such as arachidonic acid metabolism, steroid hormone biosynthesis, linoleic acid metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism, and tryptophan metabolism. In conclusion, there is a risk "time interval window" phenomenon in the adverse drug reactions caused by the sequential use of RDN and PG, and the interval medication after the "time interval window" can significantly reduce the risk of adverse reactions.

Cervical spondylotic radiculopathy(CSR)is a condition caused by the degeneration of cervical intervertebral discs and facet joints,primarily manifesting as the pain,sensory abnormalities,and motor dysfunction in the cervical nerve innervation area of neck,shoulder,and upper limb.For the treatment of CSR,tendon-bone syndrome differentiation in traditional Chinese medicine often faces the issues of conceptual confusion and non-standard syndrome differentiation.Based on the traditional tendon-bone syndrome differentiation and by integrating modern anatomical insights,Professor LIN Ding-Kun,an esteemed scholar of Traditional Chinese Medicine,proposed a classification system for the cervical spine that includes the categories of tendons,joints,bones and marrow.This paper explored the thoughts of Professor LIN for the tendon-bone syndrome differentiation of CSR,summarized the targets of manual therapy,and proposed the four kinds of pathological changes such as tendon overstrain,joint dislocation,bone lesion,and marrow injury,as well as the four techniques of traditional Chinese medicine manipulations,i.e.relaxation of tendons,reduction of joints,protection of marrow,and treatment of bones.The aim is to improve the syndrome-differentiation and treatment for CSR with orthopedic and traumatologic manipulations,and to provide reference for clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the effect of TP53 mutation variant allele frequency(VAF)on the prognosis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)patients.Methods:This study included 155 patients with DLBCL who were first diagnosed in the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from March 2009 to March 2022. Complete clinical data and paraffin-embedded tumor tissue samples were obtained,and DNA was extracted from tumor tissues.The gene mutation profile of DLBCL patients was detected and analyzed by second-generation sequencing technology.Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the mutation status of TP53 gene and the relationship between mutation VAF and OS.Cox regression univariate and multivariate analysis was use to analyze the independent factors affecting OS.A nornogram model for predicting 1,3,and 5 years OS in DLBCL patients were established to evaluated the performance of the model based on C-index and calibration curves.Results:The average value of TP53 mutation VAF in male DLBCL patients was significantly higher than that in female patients (P<0.05 ).Patients with TP53 mutantion had shorter OS than those with wild-type patients (P=0.030).The optimal VAF threshold for TP53 mutation based on OS stratification was 33.61%(P<0.001),and patients with TP53 mutation VAF≥34%had shorter OS than those with TP53 mutation VAF<34%and wild-type patients (P<0.001).Multivariate Cox analysis showed that TP53 mutation VAF≥34% was an independent poor predictor of OS (HR=4.05,P<0.001),and IPI score ≥3 was an independent predictor of OS poor (HR=2.27,P=0.008).In combination with factors with independent prognostic significance obtained from multi-factor analysis,we constructed a nomogram model for predicting 1-year,3-year,5-year OS in DLBCL patients.The results showed that the C index of TP53-mutated VAF combined with IPI model was 0.743,which predicted the value of 1-year,3-year,and 5-year OS in DLBCL patients.Calibration curves show that the model has good agreement between predicted and actual survival of DLBCL patients at 1-year,3-year,and 5-year. Conclusion:TP53 mutant VAF has prognostic value in DLBCL patients,and TP53 mutant VAF≥34% is an independent risk factor for OS in DLBCL patients.The prognosis model of TP53 mutation VAF combined with IPI nomogram constructed in this study has good predictive performance for DLBCL patients.

Objective To observe the changes of plasma gastrointestinal hormones in motion sickness sensitive and insensitive individuals before and after vertical oscillation stimulation,and to construct a susceptibility prediction model for motion sickness.Methods A total of 60 healthy male volunteers were enrolled to receive sinusoidal vertical oscillation stimulation for 45 min.The motion sickness susceptibility questionnaire(MSSQ)was filled out before the experiment.Immediately after motion,the severity of motion sickness was evaluated by Graybiel scale.The motion sickness sensitive(Graybiel score≥8 and MSSQ susceptibility index>21,n=15)and insensitive(Graybiel score≤2 and MSSQ susceptibility index<5,n=15)participants were screened.Plasma levels of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1),cholecystokinin(CCK),leptin,ghrelin,neuropeptide Y(NPY)and orexin A(OXA)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before and after vertical oscillation stimulation.Logistic regression model was used to analyze the predictive effect of plasma gastrointestinal hormone levels on susceptibility to motion sickness,and a combined predictive model was established.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze predictive value of the model.Results Ghrelin and CCK levels were significantly increased in the sensitive group after stimulation compared with those before stimulation(both P<0.01),while NPY and leptin levels were significantly decreased(both P<0.01).Similar results were also observed when compared with the insensitive group after stimulation.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that plasma ghrelin,CCK and NPY were independent predictors of susceptibility to motion sickness.The established susceptibility prediction model for motion sickness was logit(P)=-0.051 ×ghrelin+0.060× NPY-0.169 ×CCK+33.397.ROC curve analysis showed that area under curve(AUC)value of the prediction model was 0.988,the sensitivity and specificity were 100.0%and 93.3%,respectively,and the prediction effect was better than ghrelin,CCK and NPY alone(AUC=0.792,0.880,0.838).Conclusion The changes of peripheral gastrointestinal appetite regulating hormone levels may be related to the susceptibility to motion sickness.The combined use of these indicators can predict the susceptibility to motion sickness.
