Objective: To compare the biological characteristics of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived platelet exosomes (hiPSC-Plt-Exos) with those of conventional apheresis platelet exosomes (Plt-Exos), specifically focusing on their differential abilities to enhance the proliferation and migration of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs). Methods: Exosomes were isolated from hiPSC-derived Plt and apheresis Plt concentrate using size exclusion chromatography. These exosomes were then characterized through nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Western blotting. Co-culture experiments into hUC-MSCs were conducted with hiPSC-Plt-Exos and apheresis Plt-Exos, respectively. Their effects on the proliferation and migration of hUC-MSCs were assessed via cell proliferation assays and scratch tests. Results: hiPSC-Plt-Exos and apheresis Plt-Exos exhibited comparable particle sizes, morphological features (such as the characteristic cup-shaped structure), and surface markers (including CD9 and HSP70). Notably, hiPSC-Plt-Exos demonstrated a significantly greater ability to enhance the proliferation and migration of hUC-MSCs compared to apheresis Plt-Exos (P<0.05). These differences provide critical comparative data for their application in various clinical contexts. Conclusion: This study establishes a theoretical foundation for developing precise therapeutic strategies based on hiPSC-Plt-Exos. Furthermore, it underscores the necessity of selecting the appropriate type of exosomes according to the specific disease microenvironment to achieve optimal therapeutic outcomes.

Metformin has been demonstrated to attenuate hyperglycaemia by modulating the gut microbiota. However, the mechanisms through which the microbiome mediates metformin monotherapy failure (MMF) are unclear. Herein, in a prospective clinical cohort study of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients treated with metformin monotherapy, metagenomic sequencing of faecal samples revealed that Phocaeicola vulgatus abundance was approximately 12 times higher in nonresponders than in responders. P. vulgatus rapidly hydrolysed taurine-conjugated bile acids, leading to ceramide accumulation and reversing the improvements in glucose intolerance conferred by metformin in high-fat diet-fed mice. Interestingly, C22:0 ceramide bound to mitochondrial fission factor to induce mitochondrial fragmentation and impair hepatic oxidative phosphorylation in P. vulgatus-colonized hyperglycaemic mice, which could be exacerbated by metformin. This work suggests that metformin may be unsuitable for P. vulgatus-rich T2DM patients and that clinicians should be aware of metformin toxicity to mitochondria. Suppressing P. vulgatus growth with cefaclor or improving mitochondrial function using adenosylcobalamin may represent simple, safe, effective therapeutic strategies for addressing MMF.

With the growing emphasis on maternal and child oral health, the significance of managing oral health across preconception, pregnancy, and infancy stages has become increasingly apparent. Oral health challenges extend beyond affecting maternal well-being, exerting profound influences on fetal and neonatal oral development as well as immune system maturation. This expert consensus paper, developed using a modified Delphi method, reviews current research and provides recommendations on maternal and child oral health management. It underscores the critical role of comprehensive oral assessments prior to conception, diligent oral health management throughout pregnancy, and meticulous oral hygiene practices during infancy. Effective strategies should be seamlessly integrated across the life course, encompassing preconception oral assessments, systematic dental care during pregnancy, and routine infant oral hygiene. Collaborative efforts among pediatric dentists, maternal and child health workers, and obstetricians are crucial to improving outcomes and fostering clinical research, contributing to evidence-based health management strategies.

Methods: Based on the epidemiological data and laboratory test results of HMPV outbreaks in kindergartens and schools of Shenzhen during 2017 to 2023, collected from the influenza monitoring network platform, Mann Kendall test was applied for trend analysis pf HMPV. Results: A total of 11 HMPV outbreaks were identified in kindergartens and schools from 2017 to 2023 for 128 cases with an average incidence rate of 26.61% in 2018. The most yearly HMPV outbreaks were reported in 2020 being 4 outbreaks, followed by 2 outbreaks in 2018. A total of 72.73% (8 outbreaks) of HMPV outbreaks were identified in kindergartens with 27.27% (3 outbreaks) occurring in primary schools. The monthly greatest count of outbreak was 3(27.27%) in March and December, followed by 2 outbreaks (18.18%) in April and June. A total of 98 swab samples were collected, and 80 samples were positive for respiratory viruses with a positive rate of 81.63%; among them, 67 samples were positive for HMPV alone, 10 samples were positive for other respiratory viruses alone, and 3 samples were positive both for HMPV and other respiratory virus. Among the 11 human metalung virus cases, 6 HMPV outbreaks were caused by human metapneumovirus alone, and 5 outbreaks were caused by HMPV and other respiratory viruses. Except for 2020, the percentage of HMPV outbreaks in influenza like illness outbreaks increased with year ( Z=2.25, P =0.02). Conclusion HMPV outbreaks have been reported every year from 2017 to 2023 in kindergartens and schools in Shenzhen, most of HMPV in kindergartens, and the peak seasons of HMPV outbreaks are spring and winter.

  Objective  To identify the risk factors for postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in surgical patients undergoing patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA).  Methods  Our study was a retrospective cohort study, including patients who underwent surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July 1 to October 31, 2023 and received PCIA after surgery. Patient characteristics, medical history, surgical information, intraoperative medication information, postoperative analgesia follow-up information were obtained through the electronic medical record system. The patients were divided into PCIA-PONV group and non-PCIA-PONV group, depending on the occurrence of PONV during PCIA, and all patients were also divided into PCIA-POV group and non-PCIA-POV according to whether postoperative vomiting (POV) occurred. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for PCIA-PONV and PCIA-POV.  Results  A total of 1373 patients were included in this study, with 676 cases in PCIA-PONV group. The incidence of PCIA-PONV was 49.2%. There were 285 patients in PCIA-POV group, and the incidence of PCIA-POV was 20.8%. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that female (OR=2.134, 95% CI: 1.590-2.865, P < 0.001) and abdominal surgery (OR=1.655, 95% CI: 1.253-2.186, P < 0.001) were risk factors for PCIA-PONV, whereas the increase of age (OR=0.990, 95% CI: 0.982-0.998, P=0.019) and the increase of BMI (OR=0.961, 95% CI: 0.932-0.991, P=0.012) were protective factors for PCIA-PONV. Female (OR=2.646, 95% CI: 1.754-3.992, P < 0.001), history of general anesthesia (OR=1.372, 95% CI: 1.042-1.806, P=0.024), and intraoperative use of high-dose opioids (OR=1.607, 95% CI: 1.206-2.142, P=0.001) were risk factors for PCIA-POV, whereas no intraoperative use of neuromuscular blocking antagonists (OR=0.393, 95% CI: 0.237-0.651, P < 0.001) was protective factor for PCIA-POV.  Conclusions  Our study reveals the risk factors for PONV in surgical patients undergoing PCIA, and shows that comprehensive preoperative assessment and reasonable perioperative management strategies are significant in the prevention of PCIA-PONV.

Objective To investigate the expression,synergistic relationship and clinical significance of alcohol de-hydrogenase(ADH1A)and vascular endothelial growth factor-A(VEGFA)in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The expression and correlation of ADH1A and VEGFA in HCC and adjacent normal tissues were ana-lyzed by GEPIA.TCGA and GSEA were used to analyze the pathway of ADH1A in HCC.The clinical and patho-logical data of 84 patients with HCC were collected,and 54 patients with paracancer normal tissue samples were se-lected as controls to analyze the correlation between ADH1A and VEGFA and clinicopathological parameters of HCC.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of ADH1A and VEGFA in cases and con-trols,and the correlation between the expression of ADH1A and VEGFA and the clinical progression and prognosis of patients with HCC was analyzed based on clinical pathological parameters and Kaplan-Meier.Results Bioinfor-matics analysis found that ADH1A was low-expressed in HCC and VEGFA was highly expressed in HCC,and there was a negative correlation between the two(P<0.001);immunohistochemical detection results showed that the expression of ADH1A in HCC tissue was lower than that in normal tissue adjacent to cancer(P<0.01)while the expression rate of VEGFA in HCC tissue was significantly higher than that of normal tissue adjacent to cancer(P<0.01);The recurrence rate of vascular thrombus and HCC patients in HCC group with high expression of ADH1A was lower(P<0.05).The proportion of tumor diameter>5 cm,high TNM stage,microsatellite and G2-G3 dif-ferentiation in HCC tissues in VEGFA high expression group was higher(P<0.05).Kaplan-Meier survival analy-sis showed that patients with high ADH1A expression and low VEGFA expression had a higher five-year survival rate.Conclusion Low expression of ADH1A and high expression of VEGFA in tumor tissues of patients with HCC indicate tumor progression and can be used as one of the prognostic evaluation indicators for patients with HCC.
