Objective To compare the therapeutic effects of bone marrow stem treatment by different bone marrow mobilization,distinct separation methods or cell suspension density, and to explore the optimal treatment plan of autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation for decompensated cirrhosis.Methods Twenty three patients with decompensated cirrhosis were studied.100 ~200 mL bone marrow from each patient was harvested in aseptic condition, after isolation and purification by density gradient centrifugation,the stem cells were obtained and transplanted into the liver via hepatic artery.The serum glutamic acid alanine aminotransferase (ALT), albumin (ALB), prothrombin time (PT) and total bilirubin (TBIL) were checked before and l, 2, 3 months after therapy respectively,changes in these indicators of each group were compared by different bone marrow mobilization, distinct separation methods, or cell suspension density.Results After transplantation, levels of albumin increased significantly 1, 2, 3 months after treatment compared with baseline(P<0.05).Patients in bone marrow mobilization group obtained higher stem cell density (P<0.05), which had no significant difference in improving liver function ( ALT, TBIL, ALB, PT) compared with non-bone marrow mobilization group.Patients using the kit significantly improved their albumin (3 months after treatment, P<0.05), which had no significant difference in improving liver function (ALT, TBIL, ALB, PT) compared with using ordinary lymphocyte isolation method group.There was no significant difference in improving liver function ( ALT, TBIL, ALB, PT) between lower magnitude stem cell density group(≤1 ×1010/L) and higher magnitude stem cell density group(1 ×1010/L).Conclusion The treatment for decompensated cirrhosis by transplantation of autologous bone nlarrow stem cells is safe and effective, which can significantly increase the level of albumin in patients with decompensated cirrhosis.Preoperative bone marrow mobilization can increase the rate of stem cells obtained, and the method using the kit improves the leves of protein respectively.They are helpful to improve the efficacy.

Based on the view of the correspondence between nature and man in traditional Chinese medicine TCM),TCM master Professor Xia Guicheng attaches importance to the transformation of yin and yang in the female reproductive rhythm and created the"menstrual cycle rhythm regulation method".Women's special physiological phenomena are manifested in the periodic rhythm.The bi-ological clock is the internal mechanism for producing and regulating the physiological behavior and laws of organisms.The biological clock gene is widely expressed in ovarian granulosa cells,theca cells and corpus luteum cells,and is involved in the synthesis of ster-oid hormones,differentiation of follicular somatic cells,follicle development and ovulation and other physiological processes,playing an important role in female reproductive endocrine.Circadian rhythm disorders can lead to reproductive diseases such as menstrual disor-ders,ovarian dysfunction,and endocrine metabolic disorders.There are similarities between TCM time medicine and the biological clock rhythm system.Fully understanding the impact of the biological clock on female ovarian function,revealing its scientific connota-tion,and clarifying the regulatory method and mechanism will have a positive role in resisting reproductive disorders and optimizing fer-tility.

Objective:In chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients with previous 96-week treatment with tenofovir amibufenamide (TMF) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), we investigated the safety profile of sequential TMF treatment from 96 to 144 weeks.Methods:Enrolled subjects that previously assigned (2:1) to receive either 25 mg TMF or 300 mg TDF with matching placebo for 96 weeks received extending or switching TMF treatment for 48 weeks. Safety profiles of kidney, bone, metabolism, body weight, and others were evaluated.Results:666 subjects from the initial TMF group and 336 subjects from TDF group with at least one dose of assigned treatment were included at week 144. The overall safety profile was favorable in each group and generally similar between extended or switched TMF treatments from week 96 to 144. In subjects switching from TDF to TMF, the non-indexed estimated glomerular filtration rate (by non-indexed CKD-EPI formula) and creatinine clearance (by Cockcroft-Gault formula) were both increased, which were (2.31±8.33) ml/min and (4.24±13.94) ml/min, respectively. These changes were also higher than those in subjects with extending TMF treatment [(0.91±8.06) ml/min and (1.30±13.94) ml/min]. Meanwhile, switching to TMF also led to an increase of the bone mineral density (BMD) by 0.75% in hip and 1.41% in spine. On the other side, a slight change in TC/HDL ratio by 0.16 (IQR: 0.00, 0.43) and an increase in body mass index (BMI) by (0.54±0.98) kg/m 2 were oberved with patients switched to TMF, which were significantly higher than that in TMF group. Conclusion:CHB patients receiving 144 weeks of TMF treatment showed favorable safety profile. After switching to TMF, the bone and renal safety was significantly improved in TDF group, though experienceing change in metabolic parameters and weight gain (NCT03903796).
