Objective:To investigate the application value of 3D printed model in hemostasis training for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. Data were collected from six surgeons who participated in hemostasis training for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy using 3D printed model at Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital in July 2023. All participants were male, aged (33.5±9.9)years. A 3D printed model simulating bleeding during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy was created using hydrogel. Videos were recorded to document the surgeons′ hemostasis techniques and outcomes during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Two external expert reviewers blindly assessed the training videos using the objective structured assess-ment of technical skills (OSATS) scoring system to evaluate mesentery mobilization, vessel exposure, vessel clipping and bleeding after vessel clipping. Observation indicators: (1) face validity and content validity of the 3D printed model; (2) validity verification of the 3D printed model. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Results:(1) Face validity and content validity of the 3D printed model. The surgeons′ scores for overall impression, fidelity, texture, appearance, workspace and tactile similarity of the 3D printed model were 4.5±0.6, 4.0±0.6, 3.7±0.5, 4.2±0.8, 3.8±0.8 and 4.2±0.4, respectively. The surgeons′ scores for similarity to real scenarios, operation convenience, learning curve shortening and operation skills improving, patient risk reduction, trainee′s interest enhancing, confidence increasing and recommendation for promotion were 4.0±0.6, 4.2±0.8, 4.3±0.8, 4.3±0.5, 4.3±0.5, 4.0±0.6 and 4.8±0.4, respectively. (2) Validity verification of the 3D printed model. The OSATS scores and operation time to treat bleeding during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for expert surgeons were 18.7±0.6 and (125±12)seconds, respectively, versus 13.7±1.5 and (212±51)seconds for junior doctors, showing significant differences between the two groups ( t=5.30, -2.89, P<0.05). Conclusion:The 3D printed model effectively simulates bleeding scenarios during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy and distinguishes between different technical levels of expertise.

To study the effect of oral lienal polypeptide on cough and inflammation in mice, in order to expand the clinical application of immune modulator lienal polypeptide and provide a new strategy for relieving cough and inflammation. METHODS: The cough model of mice was induced by concentrated ammonia. The cough frequency and tolerance latency of mice within 6 minutes were recorded every day. The histopathological changes of spleen and lung were evaluated by HE staining and spleen index. TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 levels in spleen and lung of mice was detected by ELISA. RESULTS: Oral administration of spleen polypeptide could prolong the tolerance latency of mice to concentrated ammonia to a certain extent and significantly reduce the cough frequency of mice. HE staining showed that oral spleen polypeptide could significantly reduce the alveolar surface area and improve lung expansion in mice. The results of ELISA showed that oral spleen polypeptide decreased the levels of some proinflammatory factors in spleen and lung. CONCLUSION: Lienal polypeptide can alleviate cough and emphysema like symptoms induced by ammonia, improve immune ability and inflammation in mice.

OBJECTIVE: To study the effects of glycyrrhizic acid on the pharmacokinetics of nifedipine in rats. METHODS: Rats were randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 10 rats in each group. Experimental group was given glycyrrhizic acid 5 mg/kg and control group was given 0.5% CMC-Na (sodium carboxymethylcellulose) solution, once a day, for 14 consecutive days. On 14th day after 30 min of intragastric administration, both groups were given nifedipine 3 mg/kg intragastrically. Blood samples 0.5 mL were collected from intraocular vein plexus before and at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 1.5, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12 and 24 h after intragastric administration. The concentration of nifedipine was determined by HPLC using diazepam as internal standard. The determination was performed on ODS-C18 column with mobile phase consisted of methanol-water (62 ∶ 38, V/V,pH adjusted to 4.5 with acetic acid) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The column temperature was 30 ℃. The detection wavelength was set at 238 nm, and sample size was 20 μL. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with Winonlin 6.0 software, and statistical analysis was performed by t-test. RESULTS: The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the experimental group and the control group were as follows as tmax was (1.40±0.15), (1.50±0.01) h; cmax was (0.15±0.03), (0.29±0.09) mg/L; t1/2 was (4.70±1.17), (5.20±1.38) h; AUC0-24 h were (1.00±0.10), (1.89±0.37) mg·h/L; AUC0-∞ was (1.00±0.16), (1.98±0.32) mg·h/L; MRT was (6.76±0.64), (6.60±1.36) h, respectively. Compared with control group, cmax, AUC0-24 h and AUC0-∞ of nifedipine were decreased significantly in experimental group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Glycyrrhizic acid can reduce the bioavailability of nifedipine in rats. It is suggested that the dosage of nifedipine should be increased in order to achieve effective blood concentration.

Lipid homeostasis is considered to be related to intestinal metabolic balance, while its role in the pathogenesis and treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) remains largely unexplored. The present study aimed to identify the target lipids related to the occurrence, development and treatment of UC by comparing the lipidomics of UC patients, mice and colonic organoids with the corresponding healthy controls. Here, multi-dimensional lipidomics based on LC-QTOF/MS, LC-MS/MS and iMScope systems were constructed and used to decipher the alteration of lipidomic profiles. The results indicated that UC patients and mice were often accompanied by dysregulation of lipid homeostasis, in which triglycerides and phosphatidylcholines were significantly reduced. Notably, phosphatidylcholine 34:1 (PC34:1) was characterized by high abundance and closely correlation with UC disease. Our results also revealed that down-regulation of PC synthase PCYT1α and Pemt caused by UC modeling was the main factor leading to the reduction of PC34:1, and exogenous PC34:1 could greatly enhance the fumarate level via inhibiting the transformation of glutamate to N-acetylglutamate, thus exerting an anti-UC effect. Collectively, our study not only supplies common technologies and strategies for exploring lipid metabolism in mammals, but also provides opportunities for the discovery of therapeutic agents and biomarkers of UC.

OBJECTIVE:
To survey the residents for their understanding of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)-related knowledge, attitude and practices (KAP) in two hard hit provinces of China to facilitate the governmental decisions on strategies against the disease.
METHODS:
We invited the participants from Hubei and Henan Provinces of China for an internetbased survey starting from 12:00 on February 21, 2020 to 12:00 on February 23. The survey included the general conditions, KAP of COVID-19, psychological status and living conditions of the residents.
RESULTS:
The effective response rate of the questionnaire was 98.9%. The mean (P25, P75) age of the participants was 19 (16, 40) years, and 54.3% of them were students. Social media were the most important source of information concerning the pandemic of the respondents. The respondents had a high awareness of person-to-person transmission of the virus through the respiratory tract or droplets but showed a relatively low level of awareness of the population susceptible to COVID-19 and its specific symptoms. The results of multivariate analysis showed that women, undergraduate students (including college students) and higher degree holders had better knowledge of COVID-19 ( < 0.05); the proportion of respondents who expressed to have different levels of psychological stressed such as worry, anxiety and panic reached 77.2%; 16.7% of the responders considered psychological interventions necessary for their psychological conditions; 63.6% of the respondents confessed a bias against the people returning from Hubei and Henan provinces, while 22.4% worried that they might be biased because of their residence in Hubei and Henan. The rate of personal protective equipment shortage was as high as 69.4%; the rates of the responders who would "covering the mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing", "properly use masks in accordance with regulations", "maintain proper hand hygiene ", "avoid gatherings with relatives and friends" and "refrain from going to public places" were 92.4%, 95.9%, 93.5%, 88.8% and 93.1%, respectively. Women and groups with good knowledge of the disease reported better protective behaviors against the diseases ( < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The residents in Hubei and Henan Provinces have generally good KAP related to COVID-19, and the online platforms plays a positive role to in circulating epidemic-related information. It is essential to further increase the supply of the protective materials and pay more attention to the mental health of the residents during the pandemic, and psychological counseling and psychological protection should be provided if necessary.
