    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: Spasmolytic polypeptide-expressing metaplasia (SPEM) is characterized by mucus cell morphologies at the base of gastric glands, which is considered advanced SPEM when accompanied with an increase in transcripts associated with intestinal-type gastric cancer. Weiwei decoction (WWD) was modified from "Si-Jun-Zi Tang," which has been used for thousands of years in China against gastric atrophy and metaplasia.
    Aim of the study: To investigate the effects and potential mechanisms of WWD against advanced SPEM.
    Materials and methods: Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was employed to analyze the constituents of WWD. Five-month-infected Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) Sydney strain 1 C57BL/6J mice and 6-week-old ATPase H
    Results: WWD demonstrated beneficial effects on gastric mucosal pathology and mucus secretion. In H. pylori-infected mice, WWD effectively reduced the expression of GSII and inhibited the mRNA levels of key markers associated with advanced SPEM, including Clu, Cftr, Wfdc2, Dmbt1, and Gpx2. Similarly, in Atp4a
    Conclusion: WWD exerted protective effects against SPEM in H. pylori-infected and Atp4a

    Abstract Background: To investigate the effect of different sizes of pterygium on the front and back corneal topography, refractive changes and aberrations in natural-light and low-light conditions.
    Methods: Sixty subjects with unilateral primary nasal pterygium were enrolled in this study. All the patients' uncorrected, best spectacle-corrected visual acuity, corneal topographic aberration data in 3 mm and 7 mm areas were collected. The pterygium size was evaluated by the slit-lamp photography and Sirius Scheimpflug Analyzer.
    Results: The front topographic astigmatism values, corneal total aberrations, and higher-order aberrations in 3 mm and 7 mm areas were higher in the pterygium group than those in the control group. The pterygium horizontal length and thickness were moderately to strongly correlated with astigmatism and RMS of aberrations, while pterygium vertical length showed no or just mild correlation with the corneal astigmatism and aberrations. Compared to the readings in 3 mm area, the front and back corneal astigmatism and aberrations were larger in 7 mm area.
    Conclusions: Pterygium led to visual impairment by inducing astigmatism and aberrations. In low-light condition, the visual function worsened due to increased corneal astigmatism values and aberrations.

    Abstract It is known that about 10 circular RNAs (circRNAs) can encode functional polypeptides in higher mammals. However, it is not clear whether the functional polypeptides that can be translated by circRNAs are only the products of the evolution of higher animals, or also widely exist in other lower organisms. In addition, it is also unclear whether the two ways of translating polypeptides using IRES and m

    Abstract Subchorionic hematoma (SCH) is a hematoma in which blood accumulates between the chorion and decidua basalis due to the separation of the chorion and decidua basalis. It is common in patients with threatened abortion in early pregnancy and is mainly detected by ultrasound. SCH mainly manifests as an hypoechoic or anechoic crescent-shaped fluid dark area on ultrasound images. Although there are numerous studies on SCH, its pathogenesis and etiology remain unclear, and its influence on pregnancy outcomes is also controversial; there are also no uniform clinical treatment guidelines. Current studies suggest that the occurrence of SCH may be related to several factors, such as abnormal coagulation function, autoimmune factors of pregnant women, assisted reproduction, drug use during pregnancy and reproductive tract infection; however, its exact etiology remains unclear. Some studies suggest that SCH is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes such as miscarriage, preterm birth, preeclampsia and fetal growth restriction, although other studies have found that SCH does not increase the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes. Therefore, the present review mainly discusses the pathogenesis, etiology and treatment of SCH in an aim to provide a reference for the clinical treatment of this condition in pregnant women.

    Abstract This study aimed to create a robust prediction model for sepsis patient mortality and identify key biomarkers in those with myocardial injury. A retrospective analysis of 261 sepsis inpatients was conducted, with 44 deaths and 217 recoveries. Key factors were assessed via univariate and multivariate analyses, revealing myocardial injury, shock, and pulmonary infection as independent mortality risk factors. Using LASSO regression, a reliable prediction model was developed and internally validated. Additionally, procalcitonin (PCT) emerged as a sensitive biomarker for myocardial injury prediction in sepsis patients. In summary, this study highlights myocardial injury, shock, and pulmonary infection as independent risk factors for sepsis-related deaths. The LASSO-based prediction model effectively forecasts the prognosis of septic patients with myocardial injury, with PCT showing promise as a predictive biomarker.

    Abstract The objectives are to improve the diagnostic efficiency and accuracy of epidemic pulmonary infectious diseases and to study the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in pulmonary infectious disease diagnosis and public health management. The computer tomography (CT) images of 200 patients with pulmonary infectious disease are collected and input into the AI-assisted diagnosis software based on the deep learning (DL) model, "UAI, pulmonary infectious disease intelligent auxiliary analysis system", for lesion detection. By analyzing the principles of convolutional neural networks (CNN) in deep learning (DL), the study selects the AlexNet model for the recognition and classification of pulmonary infection CT images. The software automatically detects the pneumonia lesions, marks them in batches, and calculates the lesion volume. The result shows that the CT manifestations of the patients are mainly involved in multiple lobes and density, the most common shadow is the ground-glass opacity. The detection rate of the manual method is 95.30%, the misdetection rate is 0.20% and missed diagnosis rate is 4.50%; the detection rate of the DL-based AI-assisted lesion method is 99.76%, the misdetection rate is 0.08%, and the missed diagnosis rate is 0.08%. Therefore, the proposed model can effectively identify pulmonary infectious disease lesions and provide relevant data information to objectively diagnose pulmonary infectious disease and manage public health.
