Objective This study aims to explore the impact of esketamine combined with hip pericapsular nerve block on perioperative stress reactions,immune function,cognitive function,and postoperative analgesic efficacy in elderly patients undergoing total hip replacement.Methods From February 2022 to February 2025,110 elderly patients who received total hip arthroplasty in the hospital were enrolled as the research participants.They were allocated into a control group and an observation group by means of a random number table,with 55 cases in each group.All patients received total hip arthroplasty.Patients in the control group were given 20 mL of ropivacaine combined with pericapsular nerve block anesthesia of the hip joint,while those in the observation group were given esketamine combined with pericapsular nerve block anesthesia of the hip joint.The blood pres-sure,heart rate(HR),oxygen saturation(SpO?),and respiratory rate(RR)of the two groups were compared at admission(T1),immediately after anesthesia(T2),skin incision(T3),30 minutes after surgery initiation(T4),incision suture(T5),and immediately after surgery completion(T6).Both groups underwent detection,assess-ment,and comparison of immune function indices,serum stress markers,and cognitive function scores before the operation and 3 days post-surgery.The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)pain scores at 3,6,and 9 hours after surgery were contrasted between the two groups.Additionally,statistical analysis was performed on the incidence of adverse reactions in both groups.Results The HR,mean arterial pressure(MAP),SpO?,RR,and bispectral index(BIS)of the two groups from T1 to T6 were compared using repeated measures analysis of variance.The results showed that:(1)There were statistically significant differences in HR,MAP,SpO?,and BIS at different time points(F=118.378,70.002,44.910,242.439,all P<0.001).(2)There were statistically significant differences in HR,MAP,SpO?,and BIS between the observation group and the control group(F=206.643,195.586,93.077,3.953,P<0.001,P<0.001,P<0.001,P=0.049).(3)There were statistically significant differences in the changing trends of HR,MAP,SpO?,RR,and BIS between the two groups(F=18.583,14.158,23.350,4.883,6.698,all P<0.001).At 3 days after surgery,the levels of CD4? and CD4?/CD8? in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and cortisol in the observation group were lower than those in the control group during surgery and immediately after surgery(P<0.05).The Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scores and Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)scores of both groups decreased 3 days after surgery,and those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The VAS pain scores of the observation group at 3,6,9 and 12 hours after surgery were lower than those of the control group.The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(12.73%vs.29.09%,P<0.05).Conclusion Esketamine combined with pericapsular nerve block of the hip joint can significantly inhibit the perioperative stress response in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty,optimize the postoperative anal-gesic effect,and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective To establish a flow cytometry method for detecting C1s protein on platelet surface and preliminarily explore its potential application value in the auxiliary diagnosis of primary immune thrombocytopenia(ITP).Methods C1s-conjugated 2 μm car-boxylated magnetic beads(C1s beads)were prepared and used as quality control particles.Fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-labeled anti-C1s antibody was employed as the detection antibody to develop a flow cytometric assay for detecting C1s protein expression on platelets.The intra-assay and inter-assay precision,as well as the dilution linearity of the method,were evaluated.Subsequently,the expression levels of C1 s protein on the surface of platelets were compared among the ITP group,the non-ITP thrombocytopenia group,and the healthy control group.Results Light microscopy showed that both unconjugated carboxylated magnetic beads(blank beads)and C1s-conjugated beads were uniformly dispersed without aggregation.Under fluorescence microscopy,C1s beads exhibited strong yellow-green fluorescence,whereas the blank beads showed no fluorescence signal.The established flow cytometry assay exhibited ac-ceptable precision,with intra-assay coefficient of variation(CV)values of 7.02％,7.12％,and 3.91％for low,medium,and high con-centrations of C1s beads,respectively,and inter-assay CV values of 13.49％,6.15％,and 0.78％,respectively.The dilution linearity was satisfactory,coefficient of determination(R2)=0.998 8.Clinical sample testing revealed that the proportion of C1s-positive plate-lets in ITP group(2.56±0.79)％was significantly higher than that in healthy control group(0.23±0.18)％and the non-ITP thrombo-cytopenia control group(0.22±0.10)％,with statistically significant differences(both P＜0.05).Conclusion This study successfully established a stable and reliable flow-cytometry method for quantifying C1s expression on platelet surface and preliminarily demonstrated that C1s expression is significantly elevated on platelets of ITP patients,suggesting that C1s could serve as a potential auxiliary diag-nostic marker for ITP.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of multimodal Magnetic Resonance Imaging(MRI)in cognitive impairment related to Cerebral Small Vessel Disease(CSVD).Methods:This study was a retrospective analysis of 60 CSVD patients,who were divided into cognitive impairment group(n=32)and normal group(n=28)based on Montreal Cognitive Assessment scale(MoCA).Compare the general information and MRI parameters of two groups of patients,use correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis to investigate the relationship between MRI parameters and cognitive dysfunction,and use receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)to explore the value of MRI parameters in diagnosing cognitive dysfunction in cerebral small vessel disease.Results:Compared with the cognitively normal group,the cognitive impairment group had older age,higher apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC),lower anisotropy score(FA),and an overall increase in microbleeds(P＜0.05).Age(r=-0.510),ADC value(r=-0.591),and overall number of microbleeds(r=-0.369)were significantly negatively correlated with MoCA score(P＜0.05),while FA value(r=0.262)was significantly positively correlated with MoCA score(P＜0.05).The logistic regression results indicate that age,overall microbleeds,ADC value,and FA value are influencing factors for cognitive impairment in patients with cerebral small vessel disease.ROC curve analysis showed that the combination of age,ADC,FA,and microbleeds significantly improved diagnostic efficacy(AUC=0.990,95％CI=0.974-1.000).Conclusion:The joint analysis of multimodal MRI parameters can provide important imaging evidence for the early identification of cognitive dysfunction in CSVD.

Objective To elucidate the impact of chronic kidney disease(CKD)on the clinical outcomes of patients with left main coronary artery disease(LMCAD)undergoing intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods This retrospective study enrolled consecutive patients with LMCAD who underwent IVUS-guided PCI at Wuhan Asia Heart Hospital between January 2017 and December 2020.Patients were stratified into CKD and non-CKD groups according to the presence of CKD.Clinical data were systematically retrieved from the electronic health record system.Demographic,clinical,and angiographic characteristics were compared between groups.The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE),defined as a composite of all-cause mortality,myocardial infarction,and ischemic stroke.Results A total of 325 LMCAD patients[mean age(62.56±9.86)years;73.54％male]were included,with 31 patients(9.54％)in the CKD group.During a median follow-up of 5 years,CKD patients exhibited significantly older age[(70.13±9.77)years vs.(61.77±9.54)years,P＜0.001],higher prevalence of three-vessel disease(64.52％vs.38.10％;P=0.040)and left main bifurcation lesion(45.16％vs.37.76％,P=0.011),greater IVUS-detected calcification burden(P=0.029),and higher median SYNTAXⅡ scores[(34.10(30.30,39.25)vs.26.75(22.42,31.58),P＜0.001)].The cumulative incidence of MACE was significantly higher in the CKD group compared to the non-CKD group(32.26％vs.9.18％,P＜0.001).Univariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curves confirmed a 5.877-fold increased risk of MACE in CKD patients(95％CI 2.765-12.494).After adjusting for age and cardiac function,CKD remained an independent predictor of MACE(HR 3.611,95％CI 1.634-7.978).Conclusions LMCAD patients with concomitant CKD present with advanced age,impaired cardiac function,more extensive coronary disease,and severe calcification.The presence of CKD is associated with a significantly worse long-term prognosis.

Objective To analyze the association between lifestyle and the risk of type 2 diabetes(T2D)among adult residents.Methods The data was sourced from the Shanghai Suburban Adult Cohort and Biobank.A total of 42 096 adult residents who had not developed T2D were recruited from four districts of Shanghai(Songjiang,Jiading,Minhang,and Xuhui)between 2016 and 2019.The follow-up ended on Feb 28,2023.A structured questionnaire was used to collect information on six lifestyle-related items,including smoking,alcohol consumption,BMI,waist circumference(WC),physical activity,and diet.The unhealthy lifestyle scores(UHLS)were calculated by counting the number of all the unhealthy lifestyle items,with a range of 0-6.New-onset T2D events diagnosed by physicians were obtained through the medical information system.Cox proportional hazards regression model and restricted cubic spline model were utilized to evaluate the association between unhealthy lifestyles and the risk of T2D incidence.Results About 28.1%of the participants led 4-6 unhealthy lifestyles.A total of 1 752 new T2D cases were identified during 218 513.4 person-years of follow-up.Analysis of single unhealthy lifestyle showed that abnormal WC(HR=1.5,95%CI:1.4-1.7)and abnormal BMI(HR=1.3,95%CI:1.2-1.5)were associated with an increased risk of T2D.Compared with individuals with a UHLS of 0-1,those with a UHLS of 3 and 4-6 had 30%(95%CI:1.1-1.6)and 50%(95%CI:1.2-1.8)higher risks of T2D,respectively.Each additional unhealthy lifestyle was associated with a 10%increase in T2D incidence risk(HR=1.1,95%CI:1.1-1.2).Conclusion The risk of T2D in adult residents increases with the cumulative number of unhealthy lifestyles.Adult residents with abnormal WC or BMI,or have three or more unhealthy lifestyles accumulated,will increase the risk of new-onset T2D.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.

Aim To investigate the effect of chrysoeriol on pulmonary vascular remodeling in pulmonary hyper-tension by animal experiments combined with cell ex-periments,and to explore its potential therapeutic tar-gets by network pharmacology.Methods The target of chrysoeriol was collected in Targetnet,SEA and SwissTargetPrediction database.Pulmonary arterial hy-pertension(PAH)targets were collected in the Dis-GeNET and GeneCards databases,and PPI network map was drawn in the STRING database,and key tar-gets were screened.The GO and KEGG pathway en-richment analysis was carried out through DAVID data-base and Weishengxing platform.AutoDock software was used for molecular docking of key core targets.The PAH model of rats was constructed,and the pulmo-nary hemodynamics and vascular remodeling were de-tected by echocardiography,HE and Masson staining.Primary pulmonary smooth muscle cells were extracted,and the effects of drugs on pathway proteins were de-tected in vitro.Results The results of network phar-macology showed that chrysoeriol exerted therapeutic effects on pulmonary hypertension by affecting key tar-gets such as AKT1,SRC,EGFR,MMP9 and gsk3 β,and signaling pathways such as EGFR and PI3K-AKT.Molecular docking showed that chrysoeriol had good binding ability with 5 key target genes.Animal experi-ments showed that the pulmonary hemodynamic func-tion of PAH rats was significantly improved after ad-ministration of chrysoeriol.The remodeling of small pulmonary arteries was significantly reduced.Cell ex-periments showed that chrysoeriol could inhibit the ex-pression of proliferation,migration and phenotypic transformation genes.Conclusion Chrysoeriol may play a role in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension through multiple targets.

Aim To investigate the effects of Agrimonia pilosa(AP)on the proliferation and apoptosis of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)H1299 cells using non-targeted metabolomics and other methods,and to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms.Meth-ods Taking H1299 cells as the research object,the effect of AP on cell proliferation and apoptosis was de-tected through CCK-8 method,colony formation,LDH,Hoechst 33258 staining,AO/EB staining,flow cytometry detection,RT qPCR and other experiments.The main differential metabolites were detected by the metabolomics method of ultra-high phase liquid chro-matography and mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q-Orbi-trap MS),and related metabolic pathways were ana-lyzed.Results Compared with the control group,AP treatment was able to significantly inhibit the prolifera-tion and colony formation of H1299 cells,while the re-lease of LDH increased in a dose-dependent manner.Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry and RT-qPCR analysis revealed that H1299 cells underwent crumpling and increased nuclear fragmentation after AP administration,blocked in G0/G1 phase,up-regulated apoptotic genes caspase-3 and Bax,and down-regulated apoptosis-inducing effects of Bcl-2.Metabolomics anal-ysis screened 35 differential metabolites,which were PC(O-30∶1),D-Glutamic acid,PE(18∶0/15∶0),etc.The main metabolic pathways involved includ-ed amino acid metabolism,glycerophospholipid metabo-lism and purine metabolism so on.Conclusions AP may exert its pharmacological effects by interfering with multiple metabolic pathways in H1299 cells,inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis.
