    Abstract Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction due to dysregulated host response to infection, accompanied by a high rate of mortality worldwide. During sepsis progression, toll-like receptors (TLRs) play essential roles in the aberrant inflammatory response that contributes to sepsis-related mortality. Here, we demonstrated a critical role of TLR9 in the progression of sepsis. A septic mouse model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP), then administered with lentivirus encoding si-TLR9/LY294002. TLR9 protein expression and p65 nuclear translocation level/TLR9 protein positive expression/interaction between TLR9 and myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 (MyD88) in the cecal tissues were examined by Western blot/immunohistochemistry/co-immunoprecipitation assays. Serum levels of pro-inflammatory factors [e.g., interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)] as well as bacterial contents in the liver/spleen/mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) were measured by ELISA and bacterial mobility assay. TLR9 expression was augmented in the cecal tissues, TLR9 and MyD88 interaction was enhanced, nuclear p65 protein level was increased, cytoplasmic p65 protein level was decreased, and the nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway was activated in CLP-induced septic mice, while TLR9 knockout protected against CLP-induced sepsis via the MyD88/NF-κB pathway inactivation. Briefly, TLR9 inhibition-mediated protection against CLP-induced sepsis was associated with a reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokine release and a promotion of bacterial clearance via a mechanism involving the MyD88/NF-κB pathway inactivation.

    Abstract The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a highly conserved cellular mechanism that degrades and recycles proteins in eukaryotic cells. It involves the tagging of specific target proteins with ubiquitin, a small regulatory protein, which marks them for degradation by the proteasome, a large protein complex that acts as a molecular shredder. Dysfunction of the UPS has been implicated in a wide range of diseases, including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, and viral infections. Therefore, targeting the UPS has become an attractive therapeutic strategy for many diseases. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent cell death process that is regulated by multiple levels, including protein degradation. In this chapter, we introduce the detection of UPS-mediated protein degradation in ferroptosis using several techniques such as western blotting, co-immunoprecipitation, in vitro ubiquitination assay, and proteasome assay.

    Abstract Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of different ratios of cefoperazone/sulbactam in the treatment of patients with pyelonephritis.
    Methods: In this retrospective study clinical records of patients with pyelonephritis treated in Huzhou Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from July 2020 to July 2021 were collected,. It included 55 patients who received cefoperazone/sulbactam 2:1 treatment (Control group) and 57 patients who received 1 cefoperazone/sulbactam 1:1 treatment (Observation group). Clinical response, inflammatory reaction and bacterial clearance were compared between the two groups.
    Results: The levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and leukocyte count (WBC) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (
    Conclusions: The clinical efficacy of 1:1 ratio of cefoperazone/sulbactam in the treatment of patients with pyelonephritis was superior that of 2:1 ratio. This ratio allows to fully utilize the antibacterial effect of cefoperazone, with a significant decrease in inflammation markers and an improvement in bacterial clearance.

    Abstract Objective: To demonstrate the improvement effect of modified early warning score (MEWS)-based on graded nursing (different levels of care are given according to the assessment of the severity, seriousness, urgency and self-care ability of the patient) on the outcome and quality of life (QoL) of emergency car accident patients.
    Methods: A prospective non-randomized controlled trial was conducted on 103 emergency car accident patients admitted between May 2020 and May 2021. Among them, 57 patients received MEWS-based graded nursing and were regarded as the research group (RG), while the other 46 patients received routine nursing and were regarded as the control group (CG). The Symptom Check List-90 (SCL-90), the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and the Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Checklist-Civilian version (PCL-C) scoring surveys were administered before and after care, respectively. Nursing satisfaction was investigated when patients were discharged from the hospital. Then, patient outcomes were followed up for one year to evaluate patients' QoL by the Generic Quality of Life Inventory-74 (GQOL-74).
    Results: SCL-90, VAS, and PCL-C were lower, and satisfaction with care was higher after RG treatment compared to CG (P < .05). The incidence of adverse events during treatment was lower in RG than in CG (P < .05). In addition, PCL-C scores were also lower in RG than in CG (P < .05).
    Conclusion: MEWS-based graded nursing can effectively mitigate the NEs and PTSD of emergency car accident patients and improve their outcomes and QoL.

    Abstract Natural organisms have evolved various biological ion channels to make timely responses toward different physical and/or chemical stimuli, giving guidance to construct artificial counterparts and expand the corresponding applications. They have also shown promising potential to overcome disadvantages of traditional electronic devices (e.g., energy-consuming operation and adverse humidity interference). Herein, we constructed a green alga-inspired nanofluidic system based on a Janus dual-field heterogeneous membrane (i.e., J-HM), which can function underwater as an artificial visual platform for light perception through enhanced active ion transport. The J-HM was obtained through sequentially assembled MXene and Cu-HHTP (i.e., a metal-organic framework based on the reaction between 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxytriphenylene hydrate (HHTP) and Cu

    Abstract Objective: Due to the escalating global prevalence of allergic rhinitis (AR) and its status as an independent risk factor for asthma, timely and effective control of AR is crucial. Achieving this often involves the accurate assessment of AR. Currently, the Control of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Test (CARAT) is widely used as an assessment tool, but its measurement effectiveness in Chinese AR patients remains unclear. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of the CARAT10 scale (CARAT10-C) and analyze its application value in the assessment of allergic rhinitis and asthma control trials.
    Methods: The study enrolled 130 patients with AR from the Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT) outpatient department of a comprehensive teaching hospital from March to May 2022 as participants. The reliability and validity of the CARAT10-C scale were assessed using Cronbach's alpha coefficient (CAC), Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO), and Bartlett's sphericity test. Additionally, the study analyzed the effectiveness of the CARAT10-C scale in its application within the Control of Allergic Rhinitis and Asthma Test (CARAT).
    Results: The Cronbach's alpha coefficient ranges between 0 and 1, with higher values indicating better reliability. Significant differences in exploratory factor analysis suggest good validity. The Cronbach's alpha coefficient of the CARAT10-C scale was 0.806. Exploratory factor analysis revealed that the eigenvalues of Component 1 (3.851) and Component 2 (2.193) were both greater than 1, with a cumulative variance contribution rate (CVCR) of 60.436%. Items 6-10 were primarily loaded on Component 1 (Asthma), while items 1-4 were mainly influenced by Component 2 (AR), with loading ranges of 0.508-0.874, all significant at P < .001. The composite reliability (CAC) of the CARAT10-C scale was 0.806, exceeding 0.8, indicating high reliability. Component 1 had a CAC of 0.834, and Component 2 had a CACs of 0.807, both exceeding 0.8, indicating high reliability for both components.
    Conclusion: The CARAT10-C scale demonstrates good reliability and validity in the preliminary assessment of AR. It holds potential value in the evaluation and management of AR in China, although the specific application effects still require further investigation.
