OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation of Budesonide sustained-release tablet. METHODS:Using the cumula-tive releases in 2,4,8 h as investigation indexes,central composite design-response surface method was used to optimize the amount of hydroxypropylcellulose L(HPC-L),amount of soybean phosphatides,and filler(fixed total 200 mg)lactose- micro-crystalline cellulose mass ratio in the formulation of Budesonide sustained-release tablet,and the verification test was conducted. The release behaviors of prepared sustained-release tablet and original preparation in pH 7.2,7.0,6.8 phosphate buffer were com-pared. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was as follow as budesonide of 9 mg,HPC-L of 46.49 mg,soybean phosphatides of 9.23 mg,filler lactose-microcrystalline cellulose mass ratio of 1:2.9;the cumulative releases in 2,4,8 h were 21.9%,50.1%, 99.5%,the relative errors with predicted values (22.0%,50.0%,98.5%) were 0.45%,0.20%,1.02%(n=3),respectively. Compared with cumulative release of original preparation,the f2 was higher than 50. CONCLUSIONS:Budesonide sustained-re-lease tablet is successfully prepared,which shows similar release behavior to original preparations.

AIM:To investigate the mechanism of endothelium-derived microparticles(EMP)-induced endothelial dysfunction and the role of superoxide anion(O-?2) in EMP-induced endothelial dysfunction.METHODS:EMP were isolated from human umbilical vein endothelial cells stimulated with plasminogen activated inhibitor-1.(1) Cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells(BAEC) were divided into 3 groups and pretreated with nothing in group 1,EMP(1?108/L) in group 2,EMP(1?108/L) + L-nitroarginiemethylester(L-NAME,1 mmol/L) in group 3 for 30 min and A23187(5 ?mol/L) stimulated O-?2 generation was determined by superoxide dismutase(SOD)-inhibitable ferricytochrome C reduction.(2) Facialis arteries(60-150 microns) were isolated from C57BL/6 mice and divided into 4 groups.The vessels were pretreated with nothing in group 1,EMP(1?108/L) in group 2,EMP(1?108/L) + SOD(2?105 U/L) in group 3,EMP(1?108/L) + polyethylene glycolated-SOD(PEG-SOD,2?105 U/L) in group 4 for 10 min and acetylcholine(ACH)-induced vasodilation was measured.RESULTS:(1) EMP significantly increased O-?2 generation in BAEC culture,which was prevented about 50% by pretreating the BAEC with L-NAME.(2) EMP significantly impaired ACH-induced vasodilation.SOD could not restore EMP-impaired ACH-induced vasodilation and PEG-SOD showed partial restoration of vasodilation.CONCLUSION:These data indicate that at least some EMP-induced endothelial dysfunction occurs by inducing intracellular O-?2 generation.It may provide a theoretical evidences in finding a multiple treatment including removal of O-?2 in the future.

Objective To evaluate the effect of discussion-based teaching pattern in clinical noviciate of general surgery. Methods Two hundred and ten students majoring in clinical medicine were randomly divided into the trial group and the control group during clinical noviciate of general surgery.There were 105 students in each group. The discussion-based teaching pattern and traditional teaching pattern were performed in the trial and control groups,respectively. After the clinical novici-ate of general surgery was completed,the teaching effects of both groups were evaluated by the exam-ination performance analyses and the questionnaire-based survey. Student's t-test andχ22 test were used in statistical analysis. Reults The rate of satisfaction with the teaching pattern was 88.6%in the trial group and 70.5%in control group(P<0.05). The mean scores in the trial group and control group were 80.3±9.2 and 74.5±11.3,respectively (P<0.05). The pass rate of examination in the trial group and control group were 97.1% and 88.6%,respectively (P<0.05). The excellence rate in the examination was 24.8%in the trial group and 12.4%in control group (P<0.05). The overwhelming majority of stu-dents in the trial group thought that the discussion-based teaching pattern had more advantages in im-proving students' learning initiative and enthusiasm,ability to analyze and solve problems,etc.,acord-ing to the questionnaire-based survey.

Objective Triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)poses a significant challenge for treatment efficacy.CD8+T cells,which are pivotal immune cells,can be effectively analyzed for differential gene expression across diverse cell populations owing to rapid advancements in sequencing technology.By leveraging these genes,our objective was to develop a prognostic model that accurately predicts the prognosis of patients with TNBC and their responsiveness to immunotherapy. Methods Sample information and clinical data of TNBC were sourced from The Cancer Genome Atlas and METABRIC databases.In the initial stage,we identified 67 differentially expressed genes associated with immune response in CD8+T cells.Subsequently,we narrowed our focus to three key genes,namely CXCL13,GBP2,and GZMB,which were used to construct a prognostic model.The accuracy of the model was assessed using the validation set data and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Furthermore,we employed various methods,including Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway,immune infiltration,and correlation analyses with CD274(PD-L1)to explore the model's predictive efficacy in immunotherapeutic responses.Additionally,we investigated the potential underlying biological pathways that contribute to divergent treatment responses. Results We successfully developed a model capable of predicting the prognosis of patients with TNBC.The areas under the curve(AUC)values for the 1-,3-,and 5-year survival predictions were 0.618,0.652,and 0.826,respectively.Employing this risk model,we stratified the samples into high-and low-risk groups.Through KEGG enrichment analysis,we observed that the high-risk group predominantly exhibited enrichment in metabolism-related pathways such as drug and chlorophyll metabolism,whereas the low-risk group demonstrated significant enrichment in cytokine pathways.Furthermore,immune landscape analysis revealed noteworthy variations between(PD-L1)expression and risk scores, Conclusion Our study demonstrates the potential of CXCL13,GBP2,and GZMB as prognostic indicators of clinical outcomes and immunotherapy responses in patients with TNBC.These findings provide valuable insights and novel avenues for developing immunotherapeutic approaches targeting TNBC.

Brain computer interface(BCI)is a rapidly developing rehabilitation technology in recent years, which has been gradually used for cognitive rehabilitation of stroke patients.BCI can activate brain regions related to cognition to a greater extent through motor imagery and neural feedback technology, promote functional connectivity between brain regions, and ameliorate cognitive impairment after stroke.This paper summarized the mechanisms involved in BCI promoting cognitive rehabilitation and current applications of BCI in post-stroke cognitive impairment, and identifies the shortcomings of BCI in the treatment of post-stroke cognitive impairment, in order to provide insight for the research and clinical practice of BCI in post-stroke cognitive rehabilitation.

Objective:To explore the risk factors and follow-up outcomes of pediatric heart transplantation(HT).Methods:Between January 2018 and June 2022, perioperative data are retrospectively reviewed for 41 pediatric HT recipients aged <18 years and donor-recipient weight data for infants aged under 3 years at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital.Perioperative survivors are followed up until August 31, 2022 through out patient visits and telephone calls.Postoperative survivals are examined by Kaplan-Meier method and possible risk factors for perioperative survival identify with Logistic regression.Results:There are 22 boys and 19 girls with a median age of 120(58~138)months.After preoperative adjuvant therapy of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO), 8 cases had a successful transition to HT and 2 children underwent ABO incompatible(ABOi)HT.Six children aged under 3 years had a donor-recipient weight ratio of 2.95.Among 17 children, there are one or more complications, including continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT, 9 cases, 21.95%), tracheotomy (3 cases, 7.32%), delayed chest closure or redo of sternotomy(6 cases, 14.63%)and acute graft dysfunction(4 cases, 9.76%). Five children died during perioperative period.The possible risk factors for perioperative mortality include preoperative ECMO assistance[ HR: 32.00, 95% CI: (2.83~361.79), P<0.05], preoperative CRRT[ HR: 11.33, 95% CI: (1.15~111.69), P<0.05] and total bilirubin [ HR: 1.02, 95% CI: (1.002~1.040), P<0.05]. During follow-ups, one child died from Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease; another case of EBV-associated hepatic leiomyoma underwent transcatheter arterial embolization.With an overall survival rate of 85.37%, the cumulative survival rate is 96.97% for children without preoperative ECMO assistance( P<0.05). Postoperative mortality rate spiked markedly in children with preoperative ECMO assistance ( P=0.0013). However, follow-up results of perioperatively survivors indicate that preoperative usage of ECMO will not affect follow-up survival( P=0.53). In ABOi group or infants aged under 3 years, no mortality occurres postoperatively or during follow-ups. Conclusions:In infant aged under 3 years, the strategies of ABOi HT and large-weight donor HT are both safe and effective and it has no effect upon perioperative and follow-up survivals.Preoperative ECMO assistance, total bilirubin and preoperative use of CRRT are risk factors for perioperative survival.

Recent advances in lymphoma treatment have significantly improved the survival of patients; however, the current approaches also have varying side effects. To overcome these, it is critical to implement individualized treatment according to the patient's condition. Therefore, the early identification of high-risk groups and targeted treatment are important strategies for prolonging the survival time and improving the quality of life of patients. Interim positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET-CT) has a high prognostic value, which can reflect chemosensitivity and identify patients for whom treatment may fail under this regimen. To date, many prospective clinical studies on interim PET (iPET)‍-adapted therapy have been conducted. In this review, we focus on the treatment strategies entailed in these studies, as well as the means and timing of iPET assessment, with the aim of exploring the efficacy and existing issues regarding iPET-adapted treatment. It is expected that the improved use of PET-CT examination can facilitate treatment decision-making to identify precise treatment options.

Objective: To study the effect of WT1 expression on the prognosis of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in acute leukemia (AL) and its significance as molecular marker to dynamically monitor minimal residual disease (MRD) . Methods: Retrospectively analyzed those AL patients who underwent allo-HSCT in the First Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine during Jan 2016 to Dec 2017, a total number of 314 cases, 163 males and 151 females, median age was 30 (9-64) years old. Comparing the difference of WT1 expression at diagnosed, pre-HSCT and after HSCT. Using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve to determine the WT1 threshold at different time so as to predict relapse. The threshold of WT1 expression before transplantation was 1.010%, within 3 months after HSCT was 0.079% and 6 months after HSCT was 0.375%. According to these thresholds, WT1 positive patients were divided into low expression groups and high expression groups. Analyzed the relationship between overall survival (OS) , disease-free survival (DFS) , cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) and WT1 expression. Results: The OS and DFS of high expression group pre-HSCT were lower than low expression group [69.2% (9/13) vs 89.1% (57/64) , χ²=4.086, P=0.043; 53.8% (7/13) vs 87.5% (56/64) , χ²=9.766, P=0.002], CIR was higher than low expression group [30.8% (4/13) vs 7.8% (5/64) , P=0.017]. There was no significant difference of OS and DFS between high expression and low expression group of 3 months after HSCT (P=0.558, P=0.269) . The OS and DFS of high expression group of 6 months after transplantation were both lower than low expression group (P=0.049, P=0.035) . Multivariate analysis showed that WT1>0.375% when 6 months after transplantation was the only independent prognostic factor for shorter DFS (P=0.022) . There was no statistically significant difference in CIR between the high-expression group and the low-expression group 3 months after transplantation and 6 months after transplantation (P=0.114, P=0.306) . Conclusion High expression of WT1 before and after HSCT was an adverse prognosis factor. It is of clinical practical value to use WT1 as a transplant recommendation index for patients with acute leukemia and as a marker to monitor MRD dynamically.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of maintenance therapy with reduced dose of rhTPO in the patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) who attained stable platelet (PLT) counts after daily administration of rhTPO. Methods: Treatment was started with a daily administration of rhTPO (300 U/kg) for 2 consecutive weeks. Patients who attained stable PLT≥50×10⁹/L were enrolled to maintenance therapy starting with every other day administration of rhTPO, then adjusted dose interval to maintain platelet count (30-100) ×10⁹/L. Results: A total of 91 eligible patients were enrolled. Fourteen patients discontinued the study due to noncompliance (12/14) and investigator decision (2/14) . Among 77 patients who completed the study, 38 patients with the administration of rhTPO at every other day or less could maintain PLT≥30×10⁹/L for 12 weeks. The percentage of patients with a platelet response (PLT≥30×10⁹/L) at 4^th week, 8^th week and 12^th week of maintain therapy was 92.6% (63/68) , 82.7% (43/52) and 85.0% (34/40) , respectively. Median platelet counts remained in the range of (70-124) ×10⁹/L. The overall incidence of rhTPO-related adverse events was 7.7%. All the adverse events were generally mild. Conclusion Extending the dose interval of rhTPO is feasible to maintain stable platelet count in the patients with ITP, but the optimal dose interval is uncertain and might vary with individuals.
