OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of loganin on inflammatory response and intestinal barrier damage in septic rats by regulating the Ras homolog gene family member A (RhoA)/Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinase 1 (ROCK1) signaling pathway. METHODS A sepsis rat model was established by cecal ligation and puncture, and randomly divided into sepsis group, loganin low-dose group (50 mg/kg loganin, gavage), loganin high-dose group (200 mg/kg loganin, gavage), positive control group (0.2 mg/kg atorvastatin, intraperitoneal injection), and loganin high-dose + lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) group (200 mg/kg loganin gavage and intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg/kg RohA activator LPA). An additional sham surgery group was established. Each group consisted of 10 rats, and medications were administered once every 6 hours for 4 times. After 24 hours of the last intervention, the levels of serum inflammatory factors interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and IL-1β were detected. The pathological changes of ileal tissue were observed and Chiu’s intestinal mucosal injury score was also performed. The levels of intestinal function-lactate dehydrogenase (D-lactate), D-amino acid oxidase (DAO) and endotoxin, the percentages of zonula occludens-1 protein (ZO-1) and Occludin positive staining area, as well as protein expressions of RhoA, and ROCK1 were all detected. com RESULTS Compared with the sepsis group, the percentages of ZO-1 and Occludin positive areas increased significantly in loganin low-dose and high-dose groups; while the levels of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, DAO, D-lactate and endotoxin, Chiu’s intestinal mucosal injury score as well as protein expressions of RhoA and ROCK1 decreased significantly (P<0.05); the destruction of rat ileal tissue was alleviated, and tissue edema and inflammatory infiltration were significantly reduced; moreover, the improvement effect in loganin high-dose group was superior to that in loganin low-dose group (P<0.05). Compared with loganin high-dose group, RhoA activator LPA reversed the trend of changes in the above indicators (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Loganin can alleviate inflammatory response and intestinal barrier damage in septic rats, the mechanism of which may be associated with inhibiting RhoA/ROCK1 signaling pathway.

Animal experiments are essential tools in biomedical research, serving as a bridge between basic research and clinical trials. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses (SRs/MAs) of animal experiments are crucial methods for integrating evidence from animal experiment, which can facilitate the translation of findings into clinical research, reduce translational risks, and promote resource integration in basic research. With the continuous development of the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) methodology, its application in SRs/MAs of animal experiments has gained increasing attention. This article first outlines the principles and specific applications of the GRADE methodology in SRs/MAs of animal experiments, including qualitative descriptive systematic reviews, meta-analyses, and network meta-analyses. It then deeply analyzes the misuse of the GRADE methodology in practice, including incorrect evidence grading, improper classification of evidence, misapplication in qualitative systematic reviews, inconsistencies between the documentation of the upgrading and downgrading process and results, and inappropriate use for making recommendations. Furthermore, this article comprehensively discusses the factors influencing the grading of evidence certainty in SRs/MAs of animal experiments, including the impact of bias risk, indirectness, inconsistency, imprecision, and publication bias on evidence downgrading, as well as the role of large effect sizes and cross-species consistency in evidence upgrading. Finally, in response to the issues discussed, improvement strategies are proposed, including further research and optimization of the GRADE methodology for SRs/MAs of animal experiments, the development of reporting guidelines tailored to the characteristics of SRs/MAs in animal experiment research, and enhanced professional training for researchers in the GRADE methodology. This article aims to improve the quality of evidence in SRs/MAs of animal experiments, strengthen their reliability in clinical decision-making, and promote the more efficient translation of findings from animal experiment research into clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of modified Jinwei Guben Decoction (金卫固本汤, MJGD) combined with Bailing Capsule (百令胶囊, BC) in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients in the stable stage with qi deficiency, blood stasis and phlegm obstruction syndrome, in addition to conventional western medicine treatment. MethodsA total of 102 patients with stable COPD and qi deficiency, blood stasis, and phlegm obstruction syndrome were included in the study. According to the patients'preferences, they were divided into treatment group (49 cases) and control group (53 cases). The control group received conventional western medicine treatment, while the treatment group was given MJGD (1 dose daily) combined with BC (2.0 g each time, three times a day) additionally. The treatment period was 3 months, and the patients were followed up for 1 year after the treatment. The acute exacerbation frequency (mild, moderate, severe) before treatment, during treatment, at 6-month follow-up, and at 1-year follow-up was compared between groups. Additionally, the lung function indicators such as FEV1, FEV1%pred, FVC, and FEV1/FVC ratio, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome scores, modified British Medical Research Council (mMRC) dyspnea scale, and the COPD Assessment Test (CAT) scores before and after treatment were compared. A logistic regression model was constructed to analyze the impact of MJGD combined with BC on clinical efficacy. ResultsFour patients dropped out from the treatment group and eight from the control group, leaving 45 patients of each group for statistical analysis. The number of mild and moderate acute exacerbations in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group during the treatment period, at 6-month follow-up and within 1 year of follow-up (P<0.05) .The number of severe acute exacerbations was only lower in the treatment group than in the control group at 6-month follow-up (P<0.05). Compared with that before treatment, the number of acute exacerbations of all degrees in the treatment group was significantly reduced within 1 year of follow-up (P<0.05),while only the number of mild acute exacerbations in the control group was significantly reduced within 1 year of follow-up (P<0.05). The treatment group showed significant improvement in FEV1 and FEV1%pred and FEV1/FEV, while the control group showed a significant decline in FEV1 and FVC (P<0.05). After treatment, both groups showed significant reductions in TCM syndrome scores, including coughing, sputum, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and fatigue, as well as mMRC and CAT scores (P<0.05), with the treatment group having significantly lower scores than the control group (P<0.05). The overall clinical effective rate of in the treatment group was 93.33% (42/45), significantly higher than that of the control group, 75.56% (34/45, P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the use of MJGD combined with BC (OR = 4.68, 95%CI: 1.15 - 19.09, P = 0.03) was positively correlated with clinical efficacy. ConclusionsIn addition to conventional western medicine treatment, the combination of MJGD and BC can reduce the frequency of acute exacerbations, delay the decline of lung function, improve clinical symptoms, and significantly enhance the clinical efficacy in patients with stable COPD and qi deficiency, blood stasis, and phlegm obstruction syndrome.

ObjectiveFor prepubertal and urgently treated malignant tumor patients, ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation represent more appropriate fertility preservation methods. Current clinical practices often involve freezing ovarian tissue with high concentrations of cryoprotectants (CPAs) and thawing with water baths. These processes lead to varying degrees of toxicity and devitrification damage to ovarian tissue. Therefore, this paper proposes optimized methods for vitrification of ovarian tissues based on sodium alginate hydrogel encapsulation and magnetic induction nanowarming technology. MethodsFirstly, the study investigated the effects of sodium alginate concentration, the sequence of hydrogel encapsulation and CPAs loading on vitrification efficiency of encapsulated ovarian tissue. Additionally, the capability of sodium alginate hydrogel encapsulation to reduce the required concentration of CPAs was validated. Secondly, a platform combining water bath and magnetic induction nanowarming was established to rewarm ovarian tissue under various concentrations of magnetic nanoparticles and magnetic field strengths. The post-warming follicle survival rate, antioxidant capacity, and ovarian tissue integrity were evaluated to assess the efficacy of the method. ResultsThe study found that ovarian tissue encapsulated with 2% sodium alginate hydrogel exhibited the highest follicle survival rate after vitrification. The method of loading CPAs prior to encapsulation proved more suitable for ovarian tissue cryopreservation, effectively reducing the required concentration of CPAs by 50%. A combination of 8 g/L Fe3O4 nanoparticles and an alternating magnetic field of 300 Gs showed optimal warming effectiveness for ovarian tissue. Combining water bath rewarming with magnetic induction nanowarming yielded the highest follicle survival rate, enhanced antioxidant capacity, and preserved tissue morphology. ConclusionSodium alginate hydrogel encapsulation of ovarian tissue reduces the concentration of CPAs required during the freezing process. The combination of magnetic induction nanowarming with water bath provides an efficient method ovarian tissue rewarming. This study offers novel approaches to optimize ovarian tissues vitrification.

ObjectiveTo elucidate the critical role of rehabilitation medical records (including electronic records) in rehabilitation medicine's clinical practice and management, comprehensively analyzed the structure, core content and data standards of rehabilitation medical records, to develop a standardized medical record data architecture and core dataset suitable for rehabilitation medicine and to explore the application of rehabilitation data in performance evaluation and payment. MethodsBased on the regulatory documents Basic Specifications for Medical Record Writing and Basic Specifications for Electronic Medical Records (Trial) issued by National Health Commission of China, and referencing the World Health Organization (WHO) Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs) classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), this study constructed the data architecture, core content and data standards for rehabilitation medical records. Furthermore, it explored the application of rehabilitation record summary sheets (home page) data in rehabilitation medical statistics and payment methods, including Diagnosis-related Groups (DRG), Diagnosis-Intervention Packet (DIP) and Case Mix Index. ResultsThis study proposed a systematic standard framework for rehabilitation medical records, covering key components such as patient demographics, rehabilitation diagnosis, functional assessment, rehabilitation treatment prescriptions, progress evaluations and discharge summaries. The research analyzed the systematic application methods and data standards of ICD-10/ICD-11, ICF and ICHI Beta-3 in the fields of medical record terminology, coding and assessment. Constructing a standardized data structure and data standards for rehabilitation medical records can significantly improve the quality of data reporting based on the medical record summary sheet, thereby enhancing the quality control of rehabilitation services, effectively supporting the optimization of rehabilitation medical insurance payment mechanisms, and contributing to the establishment of rehabilitation medical performance evaluation and payment based on DRG and DIP. ConclusionStructured rehabilitation records and data standardization are crucial tools for quality control in rehabilitation. Systematically applying the three reference classifications of the WHO-FICs, and aligning with national medical record and electronic health record specifications, facilitate the development of a standardized rehabilitation record architecture and core dataset. Standardizing rehabilitation care pathways based on the ICF methodology, and developing ICF- and ICD-11-based rehabilitation assessment tools, auxiliary diagnostic and therapeutic systems, and supporting terminology and coding systems, can effectively enhance the quality of rehabilitation records and enable interoperability and sharing of rehabilitation data with other medical data, ultimately improving the quality and safety of rehabilitation services.
