OBJECTIVE To investigate the in vitro anti-inflammatory effects and mechanisms of oblongifolins A (OA) extracted from Garcinia oblongifolia. METHODS RAW264.7 cells were used as the research subject and divided into control group (0.5% DMSO), lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group (1 μg/mL), DEX group (10 µmol/L DEX+1 μg/mL LPS), and low-, medium-, and high-concentration groups of OA (7.5, 15, 30 µmol/L OA+1 μg/mL LPS). Except for the control group, the remaining groups were first stimulated with LPS for 1 hour and then mixed with drugs for 24 hours. The morphological changes of cells were observed in each group. The contents of nitric oxide (NO), reactive oxygen species (ROS), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1β, IL-4 and IL-10 were detected in cells of each group; mRNA expression levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were measured. The expression of key proteins in the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB) and nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathways in each group, as well as the nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 and Nrf2 proteins in control group, LPS group and OA high-concentration group, were detected. RESULTS Compared to the LPS group, the number of spindle-shaped and irregular cells gradually decreased in OA groups, the contents of NO, ROS (except for OA low-concentration group), TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β, the mRNA expressions of TNF-α, IL-6 (except for OA low-concentration group) and IL-1β as well as the protein expressions of phosphorylated NF-κB p65 (p-NF-κB p65), p-IκBα, and Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) were decreased significantly (P<0.05). The contents of IL-4 and IL-10, protein expressions of IκBα, Nrf2 (except for OA low- and medium-concentration groups), HO-1 (except for OA low-concentration group) and NQO1 were all increased significantly (P<0.05). OA of high concentration could inhibit NF-κB p65 protein nuclear translocation and promote Nrf2 protein nuclear translocation. CONCLUSIONS OA can suppress LPS-induced inflammation in RAW264.7 macrophages. The underlying molecular mechanism likely entails the inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway, the activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway and the reduction of ROS and inflammatory factor release.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT)imaging radiomics for the classification and diagnosis of rheumatoid arthritis associated interstitial lung disease(RA-ILD).Methods A total of 261 patients diagnosed with RA-ILD admitted in our hospital from January 2019 to July 2023 were recruited in this study.There were 143 cases of usual interstitial pneumonia (UIP )and 118 cases of nonspecific interstitial pneumonia (NSIP).All the patients underwent HRCT.A U-net deep learning lung segmentation model was applied to obtain HRCT images for automatic lung segmentation,and 1688 imaging histologic features were extracted from each lung segmentation. Variance thresholding,univariate feature selection,and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO ) were used for feature dimensionality reduction step by step,and various machine learning algorithms were conducted to construct the RA-ILD diagnostic histology model.The diagnostic value of each model was compared using receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve and area under curve (AUC),and the accuracy,sensitivity and specificity of the models were evaluated.Results Feature screening finally identified 18 best features from the HRCT images of RA-ILD patients.Statistical difference was found in the distribution of Radiomics score (Radscore)between the UIP and NSIP patients in both the training and test sets (P<0.01 ).Among the 5 imaging histology models,the support vector machine (SVM)algorithm had an AUC value of 0.943 (95%CI:0.916~0.966),a sensitivity of 0.787 and a specificity of 0.912,respectively for the training set,and an AUC value of 0.909 (95%CI:0.849~0.969),a sensitivity of 0.625 and a specificity of 0.897,respectively for the testing set.Conclusion Our constructed RA-ILD classification and diagnosis model performs well,and the model based on SVM algorithm shows the best potential in classifying and diagnosing RA-ILD.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and clinical efficacy of prone transpsoas lateral interbody fusion (PTP LIF) combined with posterior pedicle screw fixation for the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases in the prone position.Methods:A total of 23 patients who underwent LLIF in the prone position at the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province between March 2023 and October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The cohort comprised 9 males and 14 females, with a mean age of 55.5±8.8 years (range, 41-70 years). The clinical diagnoses included intervertebral disc herniation with endplate inflammation (3 cases), lumbar spinal stenosis (13 cases), lumbar spondylolisthesis (5 cases), and lumbar instability (2 cases). The surgical segments involved L 3, 4 (15 cases), L 4, 5 (6 cases), and L 3-L 5 (2 cases), with 21 cases involving a single segment and 2 cases involving double segments. The disc height and lumbar lordosis Angle before and after surgery were compared. Lower back pain was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), while lumbar spine function was assessed via the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Clinical efficacy was evaluated according to the modified MacNab criteria at the last follow-up. Results:All surgeries were successfully completed. The operation time was 120.2±21.4 min (range, 90-175 min), intraoperative blood loss was 131.1±40.8 ml (range, 60-200 ml), and the hospital stay was 6.2±1.6 days (range, 4-10 days). Follow-up was obtained for all 23 cases, with the follow-up time being 9.6±2.2 months (range, 6-13 months). One case of endplate damage occurred during surgery, two cases of transient psoas muscle weakness occurred postoperatively, and one case of lower limb pain and numbness was reported; no cases of wound infection or delayed healing were observed. The postoperative disc height improved compared to preoperative (6.8±1.9 mm; F=66.618, P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between 3 months postoperative (11.1±1.2 mm) and immediately postoperative (12.2±1.2 mm; P>0.05), but there was a statistically significant difference between the last follow-up (10.7±1.1 mm) and immediately postoperative ( P<0.05). The postoperative lumbar lordosis angle improved compared to preoperative (35.3°±5.4°; F=19.465, P<0.001), with no statistically significant difference between 3 months postoperative (44.1°±5.4°) and immediately postoperative (47.8°±6.6°; P>0.05), but there was a statistically significant difference between the last follow-up (43.2°±5.3°) and immediately postoperative ( P<0.05). The postoperative VAS score improved compared to preoperative (6.3±1.1 points; F=79.931, P<0.001), and the last follow-up (1.1±1.1 points) showed further improvement compared to 3 months postoperative (1.7±1.4 points; P<0.05). The postoperative ODI improved compared to preoperative (69.9%±7.4%; F=592.392, P<0.001), with 3 months postoperative (23.1%±3.1%) showing improvement compared to 1 month postoperative (29.2%±3.1%), and the last follow-up (17.5%±3.6%) showing further improvement compared to 3 months postoperative ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the modified MacNab criteria were: excellent in 16 cases, good in 5, fair in 2, with an excellent and good rate of 91% (21/23); 7 cases of cage subsidence were observed, with no cases of internal fixation loosening. Conclusion:PTP LIF combined with pedicle screw fixation for the treatment of lumbar degenerative diseases is safe and effective, with satisfactory short-term postoperative outcomes.

Benign ureteral strictures refers to obstructive lesions caused by the narrowing of ureteral lumen,which may lead to severe renal function damage and even failure.It is related to the incarcerated stones,the ureteral lithotripsy,and the pelvic and abdominal surgery.The primary treatment of benign ureteral strictures is surgery,but the cure rate is closely related to the characteristics of the stricture.In the past,repair and reconstruction surgery has been used for treatment,although the cure rate is high,it is traumatic,risky and slow in postoperative recovery.At present,endovascular surgery treatment is widely used in the treatment of benign ureteral strictures with short stricture length,short disease course,good renal function,and non-ischemic stricture due to the characteristics of small trauma,low risk,and fast recovery.Meanwhile,long-term maintenance treatment of indwelling ureteral stents can also effectively protect renal function.Therefore,in the treatment of benign ureteral strictures,the most appropriate individualized treatment plan should be provided for the patients based on the patient's physical conditions and stricture characteristics.

OBJECTIVES:
The interaction between elderly people with disabilities and their caregivers and the improvement of caregiver burden is important for elderly people with disabilities and their caregivers. This study aims to explore the multiple mediating roles of caregiver's caring ability and resilience in depression in the elderly people with disabilities on caregiver burden.
METHODS:
A total of 246 elderly people with disabilities at home and their family caregivers from 5 regions were investigated by questionnaires, including the General Information Questionnaire, the Patient Health Questionnaire, the Family Caregiver Task Inventory, the Resilience Scale, and the Caregiver Burden Interview. A multiple mediation model was constructed and tested.
RESULTS:
Univariate analysis showed that the caregiver burden of disabled elderly men is higher than that of women; the lower the level of self-care of disabled elderly individuals, the greater the burden on their caregivers (both P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that depression of the disabled elderly people was positively correlated with the caregiver burden (P<0.01). Caregiver's caring ability was positively correlated with caregiver's resilience (P<0.01), and both were negatively correlated with caregiver burden (both P<0.01). The multiple mediating effects of caregiver caring capacity and resilience between depression of the disabled elderly people and caregiver burden were significant, with the mediating effects of caregiver caring capacity and resilience accounting for 68.9% and 26.2% of the total effect, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS
Depression in the elderly people with disabilities can indirectly affect caregiver burden through the caregiver's caring ability and resilience. Families of older people with disabilities need to focus on both the elderly and their caregivers. It is possible to reduce the caregiver burden and improve the physical and mental health of the dyads by empowering the caregiver's caring ability and resilience.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of oblique lateral interbody fusion (OLIF) combined with lateral plate (LP) fixation and posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) combined with pedicle screw fixation in the treatment of adjacent segment disease (ASDis).Methods:Data of 21 ASDis patients treated with OLIF-LP from August 2016 to October 2019 were selected, including 9 males and 12 females; age was 59.3±7.0 years (range, 46-71 years). Target segments: L 2, 3 1 cases (4.8%), L 3, 4 16 cases (76.2%), L 4, 5 4 cases (19.1%). Twenty-one ASDis patients matched with age, sex and surgical segment and treated with PLIF were selected as the control group. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative hospital stay, visual analogua scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI), disc height (DH), intervertebral foramen height (IFH) and lumbar lordosis (LL) were compared between the groups were tested by t-test. VAS score, ODI, DH, IFH and LL were compared within the group by ANOVA, and Bonferroni's test was used for pairwise comparison. Results:All of 42 patients were followed up for 23.7 ±7.4 months (range, 12-36 months). The operation time (97.6 ± 18.0 min) and interpretative bleeding (38.5±62.7 ml) in OLIF-LP group were significantly lower than those in PLIF group (operation time 154.6±42.4 min) and interpretative bleeding (288.6±55.3 ml). There were significant differences between two groups ( t=5.66, P<0.001; t=8.23, P<0.001); the postoperative hospital stay 4.4±1.3 d in OLIF-LP group was longer than that in PLIF group 5.1±1.2 d, but there was no significant difference ( t=1.93, P=0.061); VAS score in OLIF-LP group at 1 month and 3 months after operation (1.6 ± 0.9 points, 1.4 ± 0.8 points), and the ODI index (29.4%±4.7%) after one month operation was improved better than that of PLIF group ( t=2.48, P=0.017; t=2.35, P=0.024; t=2.28, P=0.029), but there was no significant difference between the 12 months after operation of two groups ( t=0.99, P=0.329; t=0.86, P=0.395). The immediately after operation, 3 months after operation and 12 months after operation of DH, IFH and LL in the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). The immediately after operation, 3 months after operation and 12 months after operation of DH and IFH in the OLIF-LP group were better than those in the PLIF group ( P<0.05), while LL had no significant difference ( P>0.05). There were 2 cases (9.52%) in each group with cage sinking, but no clinical symptoms occurred. In the OLIF-LP group, there was no injury of blood vessels, nerves or abdominal organs during operation, and 2 patients had transient lower limb pain after operation; In the PLIF group, 2 cases (9.52%) of dural rupture were repaired during operation, and no cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurred after operation; Postoperative lower limb pain was aggravated in 3 cases, and improved after dehydration, anti-inflammatory and analgesic treatment; 2 cases of incision exudation healed after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion:OLIF combined with LP fixation has the same clinical effect as PLIF in the treatment of lumbar ASDis, but OLIF combined with LP fixation has more advantages in surgical trauma, postoperative recovery and related complications.

ObjectiveExcessive oxidative stress can promote platelet oxidative damage and plays an important role in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases. Fruitflow, a water-soluble tomato extract, can inhibit platelet aggregation and activation, but it has not been reported whether Fruitflow can reduce platelet oxidative damage through autophagy. Therefore, we conducted this study to investigate the effect of Fruitflow on oxidative damage in H2O2-treated platelets as well as the underlying mechanism in vitro. MethodsGel-filtered platelets from healthy people were pre-incubated with different concentrations (0, 20, 40, 80 mg/L) of Fruitflow for 30 minutes, and then treated with H2O2 (1 mmol/L) for another 60 minutes. The level of mitochondrial membrane potential(ΔΨm)depolarization was determined by flow cytometry. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect reactive oxygen species (ROS) level. The expression of p53, phospho-p53, LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ, and p62 was detected by Western blot. ResultsFruitflow significantly inhibited the ΔΨm depolarization, ROS production and p53 phosphorylation in H2O2-treated platelets (P<0.05). The autophagy inhibiter (3-MA) significantly reversed the effect of Fruitflow on reduction of platelet ROS generation (P<0.05). In addition, Fruitflow reduced p62 and increased the expression level of LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ in resting platelets (P<0.05), and increased the expression level of LC3Ⅱ/Ⅰ in H2O2-treated platelets (P<0.05). Furthermore, the effect of Fruitflow on decreasing ΔΨm depolarization in H2O2-treated platelet was reversed by 3-MA (P<0.05). ConclusionFruitflow can significantly reduce the H2O2-induced platelet oxidative damage by promoting autophagy in vitro.
