Objective :
To learn the regulatory effect of Lactobacillus plantarum JX025073.1 on intestinal flora and blood lipid in mice, so as to provide the basis for the nutritional intervention of probiotics in hyperlipidemia population.
Methods :
Thirty male ICR mice were randomly divided into a control group, a model group and a intervention group. The mice in the control group were fed with basic diet, and in the other two groups were fed with high fat diet. The mice in the intervention group was given 0.4 mL of Lactobacillus plantarum JX025073.1 fermentation liquid by gavage every day, and in the other two groups were given 0.4 mL of normal saline. The body weight of mice, the mass of heart, liver, spleen and kidney organs were weighed, and the organ index was calculated. The contents of total cholesterol (TC), triacylglycerol/triglyceride ( TG ), low density lipoprotein cholesterol ( LDL-C ) in serum, TC, TG in liver and in feces were determined by biochemical analyzer. Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus and Escherichia coli in feces were cultured and counted.
Results :
After 42 days, compared with the control group, The mice in the model group had higher body weights, higher levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in serum, higher levels of TC, TG in liver and in feces, more Escherichia coli, less Bifidobacterium and less Lactobacillus ( P<0.05 ). Compared with the model group, the mice in the intervention group had lower body weight, lower levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in serum, lower levels of TC in liver, less Escherichia coli, higher levels of TC in feces, more Bifidobacterium and more Lactobacillus ( P<0.05 ).
Conclusion
Lactobacillus plantarum JX025073.1 can effectively regulate the blood lipid and intestinal flora of mice fed with high fat diet.

Objective:To investigate the effect of endoscopic operation volume on musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) of shoulder, neck and elbow.Methods:From December 2019 to March 2020, random sampling was used to select 200 gastroenterologists from hospitals at or above the municipal level in Sichuan Province as the research object. Gastroenterologists were divided into 108 eadoscop in the low operation group (The operation volume is less than 5 000 cases) and 92 eadoscop in the high operation group (The operation volume is more than 5 000 cases) according to the operation volume. MSDS was investigated by UCLA shoulder scoring system, Tanaka Jingjiu cervical spondylosis scale and improved An and Morrey elbow scoring system, and the chi-square test was used to compare the basic conditions of different body parts in the two groups. The basic condition of each part of the two groups was tested and compared.Results:Compared with the low operation group, the age and working years of the high operation group were longer, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). The most painful part between the two groups was the shoulder, accounting for 25.9% (28/108) and 37.0% (34/92), respectively. Occasional shoulder pain was the most (41.9%, 26/62) and normal function was the most (32.3%, 20/62) ; The forward flexion angle exceeds 150° at most (40.3%, 25/62). Slight pain often occurred in the neck, accounting for 57.7% (15/26), the occasional impact of pain on the upper limbs accounted for 61.5% (16/26), and the impact on the fingers accounted for 53.8% (14/26) ; 65.0% (15/26) had mild disturbance to the sense of signs; Normal tendon reflex accounted for 88.5% (23/26) ; The influence of opponents was weakness, discomfort and no dysfunction, accounting for 53.8% (14/26) ; Endoscopists with normal muscle strength (2 points) and mild decline accounted for 50.0% (13/26) respectively, and there was no significant difference among the groups ( P=0.234、1.000、1.000、0.050、0.680、0.539、0.431、0.239). The elbow score scale showed that mild loss accounted for 55.0% (11/20), mild instability accounted for 65% (13/20), and mild pain accounted for 55.0% (11/20) . Conclusion:MSDs is a health problem faced by endoscopists, and targeted preventive measures should be taken for its possible causes.

Background: Patients with dyspepsia are the major group of outpatient department of gastroenterology. Dyspeptic symptoms are closely related to anxiety and/or depression. However, the relationship of anxiety and/or depression to dyspeptic symptoms in outpatients undergoing gastroscopy is still unclear. Aims: To investigate the incidence of anxiety and/or depression in outpatients undergoing gastroscopy and its correlation with the severity of dyspepsia. Methods: Outpatients underwent gastroscopy from November 2021 to December 2021 at West China Hospital, Sichuan University were recruited. Generalized anxiety disorder-7 (GAD-7), patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) were used to evaluate anxiety and depression, respectively. Rome diagnostic questionnaire for functional gastrointestinal disorders, severity of dyspepsia assessment questionnaire, visceral sensitivity index were used to evaluate dyspepsia. The correlation of anxiety and/or depression with dyspepsia was analyzed. Results: A total of 458 questionnaires were collected effectively, including 146 (31.9%) patients with anxiety and/or depression. Compared with the non-anxiety and depression group, the number of gastroscopy in the anxiety and/or depression group was significantly higher (P<0.05). Compared with the non-anxiety and depression group, the incidences of extremely mild/mild dyspepsia, moderate/severe epigastric fullness, postprandial fullness, epigastric pain and belching were significantly increased in the anxiety and/or depression group (P<0.05). Anxiety and/or depression was significantly correlated with the severity of dyspepsia and visceral sensitivity (r=0.421, r=0.143; P< 0.05). Conclusions: Anxiety and/or depression is common in outpatients undergoing gastroscopy; anxiety and/or depression may lead to repeated endoscopic examinations; anxiety and/or depression is significantly correlated with dyspepsia and visceral sensitivity.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and imaging features of patients with COVID-19-related osmotic demyelination syndrome (ODS).Methods:COVID-19-related ODS cases diagnosed in the Department of Neurology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2020 to September 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. And their past medical history, possible triggers, clinical manifestations, imaging manifestations, treatment and prognosis were summarized.Results:A total of 5 patients with COVID-19-related ODS were included. Electrolyte disturbances acted as an inducement of ODS in all patients (5/5),4 of whom with hyponatremia. Four of 5 patients first presented with disturbance of consciousness, followed by predominant dystonia. Imaging of all patients (5/5) showed isolated extrapontine myelinolysis (EPM). With the prolongation of the course of disease, such signal intensity could return to normal, and lesions showed atrophic changes in some patients. The patients′ clinical symptoms were partly relieved within a few days to a few months after treatment.Conclusions:COVID-19-related ODS is mostly associated with hyponatremia, and EPM is more common. COVID-19 should be considered as a risk factor for ODS.
