ObjectiveTo improve the therapeutic effect of Buyang Huanwutang（BYHW） on diabetic kidney disease （DKD） and explore new methods for developing new Chinese medicine decoctions，we utilized 5-hydroxymethylcytosine （5hmC）-Seal sequencing technology and network pharmacology to modify BYHW. MethodsWe selected 14 diabetes mellitus （DM） patients and 15 DKD patients hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of Peking University Third Hospital in 2021. Circulating free DNA （cfDNA） in the patients’ plasma was sequenced. After data processing and screening， we performed temporal clustering analysis to select a DKD 5hmC gene set， which was then cross-validated with a DKD database gene set to obtain the DKD gene set. We retrieved target genes of the seven herbal components of BYHW from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform （TCMSP） and the Encyclopedia of Traditional Chinese Medicine （ETCM）， and performed cross-analysis with the DKD gene set to identify common genes shared by the disease and the Chinese medicines. A protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed for the common genes to screen out the key genes. Chinese medicines targeting these key genes were searched against ETCM to identify removable Chinese medicines. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analysis was performed on non-common DKD genes， and key genes in DKD-related pathways were selected based on machine learning. The GSE30529 dataset was used to verify the expression trends of 5hmC-modified genes and the feasibility of target genes as drug targets. TCMBank was used to search for target genes and obtain compounds targeting these genes and the corresponding Chinese medicines to construct a "key target-compound-Chinese medicine" network. Molecular docking was employed to verify the binding affinity of compounds with key targets. TCMSP and ETCM were used to search and count the candidate Chinese medicines targeting DKD-related genes， and a new decoction was formed by adding the selected Chinese medicines. A mouse model of DKD was established to examine the efficacy of the new decoction based on the mouse body mass， random blood glucose， urinary microalbumin （mALB）， serum creatinine （Scr）， and blood urea nitrogen （BUN） and by hematoxylin-eosin staining， periodic acid-Schiff staining， Masson staining， immunofluorescence assay， and Real-time PCR. ResultsThe cross-analysis results showed that the DKD gene set included 507 genes， of which 30 were target genes of BYHW. The PPI analysis indicated that the top 15% target genes regarding the degree were interleukin-6 （IL-6）， Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）， lactotransferrin （LTF）， lipoprotein lipase （LPL）， and sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factor 1 （SREBF1）. Persicae Semen and Pheretima in BYHW were unrelated to key genes and removed. Machine learning identified 10 potential target genes， among which TBC1 domain family member 5 （TBC1D5）， RAD51 paralog B （RAD51B）， and proteasome 20S subunit alpha 6 （PSMA6） had expression trends consistent with the GSE30529 dataset and could serve as drug targets. The "key target-compound-Chinese medicine" network and molecular docking results indicated that the compounds with good binding affinity to target proteins were arginine， glycine， myristicin， serine， and tyrosine， corresponding to 121 Chinese medicines. The top 10 Chinese medicines targeting DKD-related genes were Lycii Fructus， Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Dioscoreae Rhizoma， Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata， Isatidis Radix， Glehniae Radix， Ophiopogonis Radix， Allii Sativi Bulbus， Isatidis Folium， and Bolbostemmatis Rhizoma. Based on traditional Chinese medicine theory， the new decoction was obtained after removal of Persicae Semen and Pheretima and addition of Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata and Dioscoreae Rhizoma. Animal experiment results indicated that the modified BYHW improved the kidney function and inhibited renal fibrosis in DKD mice， with better effects than the original decoction. ConclusionThe BYHW modified based on 5hmC-Seal sequencing demonstrates better performance in inhibiting fibrosis and ameliorating DKD than the original decoction. This elucidates the biomedical theory behind the epigenetic modification of traditional Chinese medicine prescriptions， potentially offering new perspectives for the exploration of these prescriptions

Objective: To analyze the relationship between vitamin D and ferritin nutritional status with physical indicators in primary and secondary school students in the key nutrition monitoring counties of Xinjiang, so as to provide reference for early prevention and intervention of students nutrition issues. Methods: From November to December 2023, 1 071 students aged 6-18 from key nutrition monitoring counties in the Xinjiang Nutrition Improvement Plan area were selected via stratified random sampling for physical and biochemical tests. The U test and Kruskal-Wallis H-test were used to compare the differences in physical indicators and the distribution of vitamin D and ferritin levels. Chi-square test was used to compare the prevalence of vitamin D and ferritin deficiencies among different groups of primary and secondary school students. Pearson correlation was used to analyze the relationship between the nutritional levels of vitamin D and ferritin and physical indicators. Results: The median vitamin D level was 14.7 (10.7, 19.0)ng/mL, with deficiency and insufficiency rates of 30.8% and 37.4% among primary and secondary school students in the key nutrition monitoring counties of Xinjiang Nutrition Improvement Plan area. Ferritin levels were 57.4 (37.7, 83.9)μg/L, with a deficiency rate of 5.7%. Males, primary school students, and rural residents had higher vitamin D and ferritin levels than females, secondary school students, and urban residents ( U =-11.35, -6.88, -4.52; -3.94, -9.17, -5.23, P <0.05). Vitamin D deficiency was more prevalent in females, secondary school students, and urban students ( χ 2=97.52, 49.01, 21.89, P <0.05), while ferritin deficiency was higher in primary school students and urban areas ( χ 2=34.11, 5.63, P <0.05). Significant differences in body mass index (BMI) and waist circumstance (WC) were observed across vitamin D/ferritin statuses ( U/H =35.47, 22.82; -4.19 , -5.36, P <0.05). Vitamin D and ferritin levels negatively correlated with age, BMI, and WC but positively with waist-to-height ratio (WHtR) ( r = -0.31, -0.19, -0.19, 0.20; -0.32, -0.13, -0.21, 0.08, P <0.05). Conclusions Vitamin D and ferritin levels in primary and secondary school students in key nutritional monitoring counties in Xinjiang are correlated with age, BMI, WC and WHtR, and there are nutrient deficiencies. Targeted measures are recommended to improve nutritional status and physical health.

OBJECTIVE To establish the fingerprint of Lianhua Qingwen capsule(LHQW) with the HPLC method, and to evaluate the quality by combining with chemical pattern recognition method. METHODS The chromatographic separation was performed on an Agilent Zorbax SB-C18(250 mm×4.6 mm, 5 μm) column with 0.1% phosphoric acid(A)-acetonitrile(B) as the mobile phase for the gradient elution. The detection wavelength was set at 207 nm. The flow rate was set at 1.0 mL·min–1 and the column temperature was 30 ℃. Similarity evaluation, hierarchical clustering analysis(HCA), radar plot analysis, principal component analysis(PCA), and orthogonal partial least-squares discrimination analysis(OPLS-DA) were used for the further assessment of 13 batches of LHQW samples. RESULTS The fingerprint of LHQW was established with 40 common peaks, in which 10 common peaks were identified, and the similarities of 13 batches of LHQW samples were 0.947–1.000. By applying chemical pattern recognition methods such as HCA, and OPLS-DA, 13 batches of samples were classified into three clusters, and the results of classification were correlated with the production date. And 8 major chemical markers causing quality differences were screened. CONCLUSION With good reproducibility and stability, this method could provide the reference for the quality evaluation of LHQW．

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of microRNA-211-5p (miR-211-5p) in regulation of proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and collagen synthesis of human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (HSFBs) via the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1/Smad homolog 2 (Smad2) signaling pathway. Methods HSFBs were randomly divided into control, miR-NC, miR-211-5p mimic, anti-miR-211-5p, and miR-211-5p mimic + SB431542 (TGF-β1/Smad2 signaling pathway inhibitor) groups. After 72 hours of continuous culture, quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect miR-211-5p expression, western blot was employed to assess TGF-β1 and Smad2 protein levels, methyl-thiazoldiphenyl-tetrazolium (MTT) assay was performed to measure cell proliferation, flow cytometry was utilized to analyze apoptosis rates, Transwell chambers were applied to evaluate cell invasion and migration, and western blot was again utilized to quantify type I collagen (Col-Ⅰ) and type Ⅲ collagen (Col-Ⅲ) protein expressions. An animal model of hypertrophic scars was established in rats using a constant temperature and pressure electric scalding apparatus. Following successful modeling, rats in each group received tail vein injections of miR-NC or miR-211-5p mimic. Scar healing was assessed, and histopathological changes in scar tissue were observed via hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. Results Compared with the control and miR-NC groups, the miR-211-5p mimic group exhibited increased miR-211-5p, TGF-β1, and Smad2 protein expressions, enhanced cell proliferation, reduced invasion and migration capabilities, decreased apoptosis rates, and elevated Col-Ⅰ and Col-Ⅲ protein expressions (P < 0.05). Conversely, the anti-miR-211-5p group displayed opposite trends, and significant differences were observed between the anti-miR-211-5p and miR-211-5p mimic groups for the aforementioned indicators (P < 0.05). Compared to the miR-NC group, the miR-211-5p mimic group had higher scar healing rates and fibroblast counts (P < 0.05). Compared to the miR-211-5p mimic group, the miR-211-5p mimic + SB431542 group showed reduced TGF-β1, Smad2 protein expressions, and weakened cell invasion and migration capabilities (P < 0.05). Conclusion MiR-211-5p may regulate proliferation, apoptosis, migration, invasion, and collagen synthesis of HSFBs by activating the TGF-β1/Smad2 signaling pathway.

Objective: To explore the relationship between parenting style and emotional behavior problems in children with development dyslexia (DD), so as to provide reference for family support and intervention measures. Methods: From June to September 2023, 201 children in DD group and typically developing matched by age and sex were selected from the students in grades 3-6 of 4 primary schools in a district of Xinjiang by random cluster sampling method. The Childrens Version of the Parenting Style Scale and the Strength and Difficulty Scale were administered, and the occurrence of childrens emotional behavior problems and parentingstyles in the two groups were compared by Chisquare test and Wicoxon rank sum test. The correlation between parents parenting styles and childrens emotional behavior problems was analyzed by generalized linear regression. Results: The detection rates of emotional behavior problems were 45.77% in DD group and 15.42% in normal control children group. The differences in parenting styles between fathers and mothers of the DD group and the normal control group were statistically significant in terms of emotional warmth, parenting anxiety, and overprotection (Z=4.02, 29.03; 4.94, 26.32; 23.47, 5.30, P<0.05). Generalized linear regression analysis showed that father affective warmth was positively correlated with emotional symptoms, hyperactivity, peer interaction problems and prosocial behaviors (β=0.08, 0.05, 0.05, 0.09, P<0.05). The emotional warmth of mothers in DD group was negatively correlated with emotional symptoms, conduct problems, hyperactivity and peer interaction problems (β=-0.18, -0.08, -0.07, -0.08, P<0.05). Conclusions Parenting style is an important factor affecting the emotional behavior problems of DD children. Improving parenting style can reduce the occurrence of emotional behavior problems of DD children.

Kidney ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) is a leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) with a poor prognosis and high mortality rate. Recent studies have reported that chrysophanol may have a renal protective effect, but its specific impact and mechanism on IRI remain unclear. This study aimed to explore the effects and mechanisms of chrysophanol on AKI induced by IRI. By utilizing a unilateral kidney IRI mouse model, histopathological changes in the kidney, serum levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen, and protein expressions of apoptosis and mitophagy in kidney tissue were examined. Additionally, a hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) model of human kidney-2 (HK-2) cells was established to measure mitochondrial membrane potential levels and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Functional enrichment analysis was performed to screen relevant targets of chrysophanol and AKI, and to verify key targets and pathways. The animal experiments conducted in this study were ethically approved by the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of Peking University (No. LA2021503). The findings indicate that the IRI group exhibited elevated levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen in serum, significant renal tissue damage, and increased expression of renal injury markers (KIM1), apoptosis-related proteins (cleaved-caspase 3, caspase 3, cytochrome C), and mitochondrial autophagy protein (PINK1) compared to the sham surgery group. Chrysophanol treatment ameliorated the aforementioned pathological changes in a dose-dependent manner in an IRI model. Additionally, it exhibited significant improvements in mitochondrial membrane potential and inhibition of ROS production in HK-2 cells subjected to H/R conditions. Through network pharmacological analysis, HSP90AA1 and PIK3R1 were identified as key targets primarily enriched in the phosphoinositide 3 kinase/protein kinase B (PI3K/Akt) pathway. Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) validation confirmed that chrysophanol significantly decreased HSP90AA1 and PIK3R1 mRNA levels in HK-2 cells under H/R conditions, while also enhancing the protein expressions of p-PI3K, PI3K, p-Akt, and Akt. In conclusion, chrysophanol has the potential to enhance AKI by selectively modulating HSP90AA1 and PIK3R1, activating the PI3K/Akt pathway, decreasing apoptosis, regulating mitochondrial autophagy, enhancing mitochondrial membrane potential, and suppressing ROS production. These findings suggest that chrysophanol could serve as a promising therapeutic option for the treatment of AKI.

Objective: To analyze and assess the current status of high blood pressure and associated factors among primary and secondary school students in Xinjiang in 2023, so as to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control decision making of high blood pressure among students. Methods: From September to November 2023, a total of 94 205 primary and secondary school students aged 8-17 from 14 prefectures and cities in Xinjiang, were selected for physical measurement and questionnaire survey using a stratified clustering random sampling method. The χ 2 test was employed to compare differences in high blood pressure rates among students with varying characteristics. Additionally, a Logistic regression model was developed to analyze associated factors with high blood pressure among primary and secondary school students. Results: The overall high blood pressure rate among primary and secondary school students in Xinjiang was 8.18%, with simple systolic hypertension being the main type at 52.16%. By educational stages, high blood pressure rates for elementary school (grades 4-6), middle school, high school and vocational high school were 8.04%, 8.59%, 7.65%, and 9.72% respectively ( χ 2=29.16, P <0.01). The high blood pressure rates among obese and overweight students were 9.93% and 17.88% respectively, significantly higher than 5.32% among normal weight students ( χ 2=1 643.14, P < 0.01 ). The high blood pressure rate among urban students (8.73%) was higher than that of rural students (7.15%) ( χ 2=71.58, P <0.01). Logistic regression model analysis showed increased high blood pressure risk for girls than boys ( OR = 1.06 ); middle school, high school, and vocational high school students had increased high blood pressure risk compared to elementary school students ( OR =1.22, 1.16, 1.70); rural students had lower high blood pressure risk than urban students ( OR =0.90); the risk of high blood pressure in overweight and obese groups was higher than that in the normal group ( OR =1.54, 3.00), and the risk of high blood pressure in boarding students was lower than that in non boarding students ( OR =0.71)( P <0.01). Conclusions In Xinjiang in 2023, primary and secondary school students have a certain rate of high blood pressure, mainly characterized by elevated systblood pressure lower. The main prevention and control targets are females, urban residents, those in higher academic stages, non boarding students, as well as overweight and obese primary and secondary school students.

[Abstract] [Objective] To investigate the distribution characteristics and susceptibility of ABO and Rh blood group antigens in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Xinjiang, so as to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis. [Methods] The clinical information of hospitalized patients with pulmonary tuberculosis from different ethnic groups (n=32 508, infection group) and healthy people (n=15 442, control group) in the Eighth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from 2014 to 2020 was collected, and the frequency distribution of ABO and Rh blood group antigens in the two groups was analyzed retrospectively. [Results] 1) The constituent ratios of pulmonary tuberculosis prevalence in Uygur, Han, HaKazak and Hui people were 51.11%, 33.66%, 9.09% and 6.13% respectively, with significant difference (P<0.001). The prevalence rate of pulmonary tuberculosis in females (52.65%) was higher than in males (47.35%) (P<0.05). 2) The frequency of type B antigen was highest at 30.10%, and the frequency of type AB antigen was the lowest at 10.09% in pulmonary tuberculosis group; The distribution of blood types was B type>O type>A type>AB type. In the control group, the distribution of blood types was O type>A type>B type>AB type. The frequency of type B in Uighur, type O in Kazak, type A in Hui and Han nationalities in the infection group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.001); 3) The distribution of blood type among patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in different ethnic groups was Uygur B>A>O>AB, Kazak O>B>A>AB, Hui A>O=B>AB, Han A>B>O>AB, with significant difference between different ethnic groups (P<0.001). 4) The total positive rate of RhD blood group among pulmonary tuberculosis patients was 97.26%, while the negative rate was 2.74%. Among them, the Uyghur ethnicity has the highest frequency at 4.44%, followed by Kazakh at 2.13%, Hui at 1.26%, Han at 0.58%, with significant differences(P<0.05). [Conclusion] The proportion of pulmonary tuberculosis prevalence among Uygur, Han, HaKazak and Hui people were 51.11%, 33.66%, 9.09% and 6.13%, respectively. The distribution frequency of blood type was B>O>A>AB. Moreover, higher frequencies of tuberculosis in Uygur with type B, Kazak with type O, Hui with type A and Han with type A suggest that these blood types may be susceptible risk factors for pulmonary tuberculosis, which provides new insights for the prevention and control of pulmonary tuberculosis.
