    Abstract Depression is a prevalent mental disorder and has a profound impact on an individual's psychological and physical well-being. It is characterized by a persistently depressed mood, loss of interest, energy loss, and cognitive dysfunction. In recent years, more and more people have changed to mental diseases, such as depression, anxiety, mania and so on. In the incidence of depression, covering all ages, but still mainly young and middle-aged women. Traditional treatments for depression mainly rely on medication and psychotherapy, but these methods are not effective for all patients and are often accompanied by certain side effects. Therefore, finding safe and effective alternative or adjuvant treatments has become a priority. Here we highlight the research progress of acupuncture in the treatment of depression and to explore the mechanism of acupuncture in the treatment of depression. Acupuncture treatment of depression is an ancient and effective method, the mechanism involves multiple biological pathways, for example, by regulating neurotransmitter levels, regulating the neuroendocrine axis, improving neuroplasticity, anti-inflammatory and other effects, improving emotional state and play an antidepressant role. To provide evidence to support the widespread use of acupuncture in clinical practice. We hope to provide new treatment ideas and methods for patients with depression, and even reduce the incidence of depression.

    Abstract Objective: To explore the active components and mechanism of Jiaotai Pill (JTP) in the treatment of primary insomnia (PI) based on gene expression omnibus.
    Methods: The main active components of Jiaotai Pills were obtained by TCMSP and literature mining, and the targets of the active components of Jiaotai Pills were predicted. The targets were verified and standardized by Uniprot database. PI-related targets were obtained from GeneCards, OMIM, DrugBank, PharmGKB, and TTD databases. Obtaining an intersection action target point of the Jiaotai pill and the PI by using a Venny diagram; Gene chip data (GSE208668) was downloaded from gene expression omnibus database, and then gene probe enrichment analysis (GSEA) was used to screen the differentially expressed genes between PI patients and normal controls, and molecular docking was used to virtually verify the screened differentially expressed genes with potential active compounds.
    Results: 21 active components and 263 potential targets of Jiaotai Pill were screened by database analysis and literature mining, 112 of which were intersected with PI. Molecular docking results showed that quercetin, EGCG, kaempferol, R-kanatin, stigmasterol, berberine and other core active components had good docking activity with related differential genes.
    Conclusion: Jiaotai Pill can regulate the release of inflammatory factors through multiple active ingredients, multiple disease targets, multiple biological pathways and multiple pathways to achieve the purpose of treating PI, which provides a theoretical basis for the clinical treatment of PI and broadens the clinical use of Jiaotai Pill.

    Abstract Diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) is the most common neuropathy in the world, mainly manifested as bilateral symmetry numbness, pain or paresthesia, with a high rate of disability and mortality. Schwann cells (SCs), derived from neural ridge cells, are the largest number of glial cells in the peripheral nervous system, and play an important role in DPN. Studies have found that SCs are closely related to the pathogenesis of DPN, such as oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress, inflammation, impaired neurotrophic support and dyslipidemia. This article reviews the mechanism of SCs in DPN.

    Abstract Restless leg syndrome (Restless legs syndrome, RLS) is a common neurological disorder. The pathogenesis of RLS remains unknown, and recent pathophysiological developments have shown the contribution of various genetic markers, neurotransmitter dysfunction, and iron deficiency to the disease, as well as other unidentified contributing mechanisms, particularly chronic renal dysfunction. RLS enhancement syndrome is frequently observed in patients with RLS who have received long-term dopamine agonist therapy, manifesting as a worsening of RLS symptoms, usually associated with an increase in the dose of dopamine agonist. Some patients with RLS can adequately control their symptoms with non-pharmacological measures such as massage and warm baths. First-line treatment options include iron supplementation for those with evidence of reduced iron stores, or gabapentin or pregabalin, as well as dopamine agonists, such as pramipexole. Second-line therapies include opioids such as tramadol. RLS seriously affects the quality of life of patients, and because its pathogenesis is unclear, more biological evidence and treatment methods need to be explored.

    Abstract With the progress and rapid societal development, women are confronted with multifaceted pressures in their lives, encompassing familial and other domains. Furthermore, during the perimenopausal phase, endocrine equilibrium is disrupted, leading to the emergence of psychological and physiological health challenges. Insomnia is a prevalent symptom among perimenopausal individuals. The brain-gut-bacteria axis assumes a pivotal role in the prevention, diagnosis, and management of perimenopausal insomnia. Chaihu Jia Longgu Muli decoction is a commonly prescribed remedy for addressing perimenopopausal insomnia. Consequently, this paper aims to investigate the interplay between the brain-gut-bacteria axis, intestinal microbiota, and the pathogenesis of perimenopausal insomnia. The study focuses on examining the regulatory effects of Chaihu Jia Longgu Muli decoction on the nervous system, intestinal microbiota, and the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis. Additionally, it explores the mechanisms underlying Hujia Longgu Muli decoction in mitigating perimenopausal insomnia.

    Abstract Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a liver cancer. In contrast, ferroptosis is a novel iron-dependent and ROS reliant type of cell death that is observed under various disease conditions.
    Methods and analysis: RNA sequencing data from HCC patients were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Ferroptosis-related long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were screened by Pearson correlation analysis. Patients were randomized into training or testing sets in a 1:1 ratio. They were constructed in the training set using univariate-Lasso and multivariate Cox regression analysis and further tested for prognostic values in the testing set. Four lncRNAs were identified. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients in the high-risk group had a worse prognosis than those in the low-risk group. Following differentially expressed genes analysis of these two groups. Functional analysis showed association with oxidative stress response. Cox regression analyses showed that risk score was an independent prognostic indicator. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and decision curve analysis demonstrated the accuracy of prediction. Four ferroptosis-related lncRNAs based on differential expression of HCC were screened by bioinformatic methods to construct a prognostic risk model and accurately predict the prognosis of HCC patients. Four lncRNAs may have a potential role in the anti-tumor immune process and serve as therapeutic targets for HCC. To lay the foundation for subsequent studies.

    Abstract Objective: To explore the curative effect of "Jiaotai Pill" combined with head rhythmic massage consistent with 5-tone rhythm on insomnia of heart-kidney disharmony type.
    Methods: Sixty patients with insomnia in massage clinic and ward were randomly divided into treatment group A (30 cases) and treatment group B (30 cases). Patients in group A were treated with traditional head massage combined with oral estazolam tablets. Group B was treated with "Jiaotai Pill" combined with head rhythmic massage therapy consistent with 5-tone rhythm. After 2 weeks of treatment, the scores of Hamilton Anxiety Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, Insomnia Severity Index and Traditional Chinese Medicine Symptom Scale, as well as the expression changes of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-8 in serum were compared between the 2 groups before and after treatment.
    Results: After 2 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate of group B was 93. 33%, which was significantly higher than that of group A (66. 67%) (P < .05). After treatment, the scores of Hamilton Anxiety Scale, PQSI, insomnia severity index and traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores were significantly decreased in both groups, and the decrease in group B was more significant than that in group A (P < .05). After treatment, the serum levels of IL-6 and IL-8 were significantly decreased in both groups, and the decrease in group B was greater than that in group A, the difference was statistically significant (P < .05).
    Conclusion: The overall efficacy of Jiaotai Pill combined with head massage therapy consistent with 5-tone rhythm is significantly better than that of traditional massage combined with 5-element music therapy for insomnia patients with heart-kidney disharmony.
