Article Abstract
Background: Intestinal dysfunction plays an important role in the clinical progress and prognosis of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP). Qingyi decoction (QYD) has shown beneficial effects on intestinal function recovery, but the prevention actions of the QYD on intestinal paralysis and its mechanism have not been fully explored.
Methods: The possible molecular mechanism was unraveled by network pharmacology, including active ingredients and potential target prediction, as well as GO, KEGG, and REATCOME pathway enrichment analyses. The potential interactions between the main active ingredients of the QYD and core genes were explored by molecular docking. A retrospective cohort study on 137 patients with SAP from Tianjin Nankai Hospital was conducted to evaluate the preventive effect of QYD on intestinal paralysis.
Results: A total of 110 active ingredients in QYD were screened out, and 37 key targets were predicted by network pharmacology. GO, KEGG, and REATCOME enrichment analyses showed that bioinformatics annotation of the hub genes was mainly involved in intestinal epithelial functions and inflammatory response pathways. The main components of QYD possessed good affinity with IL-6, TNF, CASP3, CXCL8, and CRP by molecular docking. Patients who used QYD plus usual care seemed to have fewer intestinal paralysis rates, lower risk of renal insufficiency, ARDS and blood purification therapy, and shorter hospital and ICU stays. The multivariable regression analyses indicated that the mode of nasogastric and enemas administration of QYD (P = 0.010) and timely intervention with QYD (P = 0.045) were the independent protective factors for intestinal paralysis prevention in patients with SAP.
Conclusion: In conclusion, QYD can be used as an effective adjuvant procedure to prevent the occurrence and development of intestinal paralysis in patients with SAP. The mechanisms may be involved in the anti-inflammatory response and maintenance of intestinal epithelial function.

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a rare and severe intestinal motility disorder with poor long-term prognosis and high mortality rate, especially when the small intestine is involved. Due to the non-specificity of clinical symptoms, CIPO has long faced diagnostic challenges. With the advancements of sequencing technology, many hereditary CIPOs have been identified.

Neurogastroenterology, a rapidly evolving field, investigates the intricate interactions between the nervous system and the organs of the gastrointestinal tract. This review offers a comprehensive summary of innervation of the gastrointestinal tract, focusing on both extrinsic and intrinsic components. Extrinsic innervation involves the autonomic nervous system, with sympathetic and parasympathetic fibers controlling various digestive functions, while intrinsic innervation, represented by the enteric nervous system, operates largely independently, orchestrating complex processes such as motility, secretion, and immune responses.

Background: Idiopathic mesenteric phlebosclerosis (IMP) is a rare condition that causes ischaemic colitis, has various clinical manifestations, and may even be asymptomatic, often resulting in clinical misdiagnosis.
Case Summary: We report the case of a 44-year-old woman with chief complaints of abdominal pain, vomiting and decreased defecation. One year prior, the patient was asymptomatic and therefore misdiagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease based on incidental findings on an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan.

Mutations in the filamin A (FLNA) gene cause a broad range of disorders, affecting musculoskeletal, nervous, vascular, and gastrointestinal systems, collectively known as filaminopathies. In contrast to previously described mutations in the long isoform of , which alter the reading frame and lead to loss of Filamin A expression resulting in congenital short bowel syndrome or chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction in pediatric patients, here we present the clinical and genetic features of an adult patient with chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction in whom whole exome sequencing revealed a novel missense mutation (p.Gly19Val) in gene.
