Slow Transit Constipation: Pathophysiological Perspectives and Management Updates

Journal of Digestive Diseases, EarlyView.
Slow transit constipation (STC) is a complex neuromuscular disorder driven by interstitial cells of Cajal (ICCs) loss and enteric neuropathy. Diagnosis relies on objective transit testing while excluding pelvic floor dysfunction. Management follows a stepwise, phenotype‐driven approach, progressing from conventional laxatives to emerging targeted ...

Electroacupuncture inhibits neuronal pyroptosis in ischemic brain injury through modulating SIRT5-mediated NEK7 succinylation

Brain Research Bulletin
Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of global death. The treatment of this disease can inevitably result in reperfusion, thereby triggering cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) and neuronal pyroptosis.

Effects of Electroacupuncture at ST36 on Visceral Pain and Inflammatory Markers in IBS Rats

Neurogastroenterology &Motility, EarlyView.
Electroacupuncture (EA) at ST36 significantly reduced visceral pain and colonic inflammation in IBS model rats. EA increased pain thresholds, lowered AWR scores, and downregulated key inflammatory mediators (IL‐1β, IL‐6, TNF‐α, TRPV1, NF‐κB). These findings highlight ST36‐targeted EA as a promising therapeutic strategy for IBS visceral hypersensitivity
