Aging is an inevitable, physiological process of the human body, leading to deterioration in bodily function and increased susceptibility to various diseases. Effective endogenous therapeutic strategies for anti-aging and related diseases remain limited. Exercise confers multifaceted benefits to physical health by augmenting osteogenic and myogenic processes, enhancing cardiovascular and nervous system function, and attenuating chronic inflammation. Angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis play pivotal roles in anti-aging, tissue repair, and immune response modulation, underscoring their potential as therapeutic targets for age-related diseases. Modulating angiogenic and lymphangiogenic pathways may provide a promising strategy for mitigating vascular decline and immune system dysfunction associated with aging. Exercise-induced endogenous angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis can exert beneficial effects on physiological function, thereby representing a potential therapeutic paradigm for combating age-related decline and diseases. This review offers a thorough summary of the present knowledge regarding angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis induced by exercise, encompassing the underlying mechanisms and the effects in different organs. In addition, it explores the potential of physical activity as a non-pharmacological intervention for anti-aging strategies and disease management, offering novel insights into the intersection of physical activity, aging, and disease progression.

Background Prolonged grief disorder(PGD)has serious impact on the quality of patients' work and life.Previous relevant studies have explored the intervention effect of cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT)on PGD,but their conclusions remain controversial due to differences in frequency,time and content of intervention.Objective To explore the intervention effects of CBT on the PGD through Meta-analysis,so as to provide references for clinical treatment.Methods On October 22,2022,the database of VIP,China Biomedical Literature Database,Wanfang,CNKI,Embase,Cochrane Library,PubMed and Web of Science were searched systematically,and randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of CBT in treating PGD was collected.Outcome indicators include sadness,depression,anxiety and somatization symptoms.RevMan 5.3 was used for Meta-analysis.Results A total of 7 articles were included with a total sample size of 528 cases.Meta-analysis results showed that the study group had lower scores than the control group for grief(SMD=-0.78,95%CI:-1.27～-0.29),depression(SMD=-0.45,95%CI:-0.73～-0.17)and anxiety symptom(SMD=-0.38,95%CI:-0.59～-0.18)with statistically significant differences.However,the difference of scores for somatization symptom between two groups was not significant(SMD=-0.01,95%CI:-0.26～0.25).Conclusion CBT may contribute to improving the symptoms of grief,depression and anxiety in PGD patients but unsatisfactory efficacy on somatization symptom.

Gaucher Disease (GD) is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder characterized by high heterogeneity. This study aimed to further understand the correlation between clinical phenotypes and genotypes in GD patients through a retrospective analysis of 20 cases in Shanxi Bethune Hospital, including their clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, enzyme studies, and genetic results. Among the 20 GD patients, 16 were classified as Type Ⅰ GD with a median age of diagnosis of 24 years, and 4 were classified as Type Ⅲ GD with a median age of diagnosis of 19 years. All patients exhibited splenomegaly and thrombocytopenia, with 16 patients showing skeletal imaging changes, and 5 of them presenting with bone pain symptoms. Genetic analysis revealed 15 distinct mutations, predominantly missense mutations, with L483P being the most prevalent (35.7%), followed by V414L, L303I, and F252I. Mutation sites were predominantly located in exon 7. Noteworthy findings included the first report of the S310G mutation by our research group and the first occurrence of the K196R mutation in the Chinese population. Additionally, the N227S mutation was implicated in a potential association with neuropathy. Despite advancements, Uncertainties still exist in the correlation between clinical phenotypes and genotypes in GD patients.

AIM: Given the biofilm formation abili- ty of different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae, our study was aimed at exploring the inhibitory and clearance of azithromycin combined with levofloxacin on the biofilm of Klebsiella pneumoniae of different ST-types and providing a new strategy for the prevention of biofilm formation in the treatment of post-infectious Klebsiella pneumoniae. METHODS: 9 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae from all susceptibility groups, 19 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae producing extended-spectrum β - lactamases (ESBLs), and 37 strains of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) were randomly collected from the samples of patients hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from August 2019 to November 2021. The isolates were identified using VITEK MS IVD KB V3.2 and VITEK 2-Compact 60. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was performed to analyze the homology of each strain; crystal violet staining was used for semi -quantitative detection of biofilm to compare the differences in biofilm formation ability between different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae. Different ST-type strains were selected, and the partial inhibitory concentration index (FICI) was calculated by micro broth dilution method to judge the combination effect and select the optimal combination concentration; crystalline violet staining method was used to investigate the inhibition and clearance effect of azithromycin combined with levofloxacin on the biofilm of different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae; laser scanning confocal fluorescence microscopy was used to observe the structural changes of the biofilm of Klebsiella pneumoniae before and after the effect of the antibacterial drugs. RESULTS: MLST typing results showed that the sensitive group of Klebsiella pneumoniae strains had 8 sequences such as ST86, ST727, etc., the ESBLs group strains belonged to 14 sequence types such as ST15, ST37, ST11, etc., of which ST15 accounted for 26.32% (5 / 19). The CRKP group strains belonged to 9 sequence types such as ST11, ST15, ST656, etc., of which ST11 accounted for 48.65% (18/37), ST15 accounted for 27.03% (10/37); ST15 (ESBLs), ST11 (CRKP), ST15 (CRKP) type Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms all reached maturity on the 5th day, the ST15 (ESBLs) group had a stronger ability to produce material to be membranous than the ST15 (CRKP) group. The ST11 (CRKP) group had a stronger ability to produce material to be membranous than the ST15 (CRKP) group (P<0.01); the results of azithromycin combined with levofloxacin drug sensitivity showed that it had an additive effect on different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria; in the inhibition of biofilm formation and clearance test, the 2×MIC azithromycin group and the combined concentration group had a stronger inhibition of biofilm formation of different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae bacteria, and the inhibitory ability of the combined group was better than that of the single-drug group, and the highest inhibition rate could reach 89.93%; the clearance effects were all combined drug group>azithromycin>levofloxacin, and the highest clearance rate was 44.79%. CONCLUSION: There are differences in biofilm formation ability between different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae, and azithromycin combined with levofloxacin has a better inhibitory effect on different ST-type Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilm, conbined application can be used in the treatment of biofilm infections early stage.

The moderated mediating effect analysis was conducted using Process v3.4. ResultsAmong the middle school students， CTQ scores were positively correlated with PCL and ISI scores （r=0.540， 0.320， P<0.05）， and the scores of CTQ， PCL and ISI were negatively correlated with the score of mental resilience scale （r=-0.049， -0.193， -0.132， P<0.05）. PTSD symptoms exhibited a partial mediating effect on the relationship between general childhood maltreatment and insomnia （β=0.161， P<0.05）， accounting for 80.5% of the total effect. ConclusionAmong the middle school students， the relationship between childhood maltreatment and insomnia is partially mediated via PTSD symptoms， and mental resilience exerts a moderating role between childhood maltreatment and PTSD symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the pharmacokinetics of sugammadex in reversal of rocuronium-induced muscle relaxant residual in infants and young children undergoing daytime surgery.Methods:One hundred and four pediatric patients of either sex, aged 3-36 months, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ, with body mass index of 18.5-28.0 kg/m 2, diagnosed with oblique inguinal hernia and/or hydrocele, scheduled for laparoscopic high ligation of hernia sac and/or high ligation of sphingoid surgery, were included in the study. Intraoperative neuromuscle relaxation was assessed by transdermal stimulation of the ulnar nerve in the wrist using a TOF Guard monitor. Rocuronium 0.9 mg/kg, propofol 3 mg/kg, and sufentanyl 0.5 μg/kg were intravenously injected for anesthesia induction, and propofol 6-8 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused to maintain anesthesia. The pediatric patients were divided into Ⅰgroup and Ⅱ group according to the degree of postoperative neuromuscular block. In group Ⅰ, sugammadex 2 mg/kg was intravenously injected when TOF returned to T 2 recurrence. In group Ⅱ, sugammadex 4 mg/kg was intravenously injected when the single stimulation count was 1 or 2 after tetanic stimulation. At 2 and 10 min after rocuronium administration, at the end of operation, 2 and 10 min after sugammadex administration, and when the children met the standard of leaving the resuscitation room, venous blood samples were collected for determination of plasma concentrations of rocuronium and sugammadex using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined using the Pheonix WinNonlin software. The onset of rocuronium and time for recovery of TOF ratio to 90% were recorded. Results:The pharmacokinetics of sugammadex was fitted to the nonlinear mixed-effect satrioventricular model.There was no significant difference in the peak concentration, area under the drug concentration-time curve, elimination half-life, apparent clearance, apparent volume of distribution, mean retention time, and time for TOF ratio returning to 90% between the two groups ( P> 0.05). Conclusions:The pharmacokinetics of sugammadex in reversal of rocuronium-induced muscle relaxant residual is fitted to a nonlinear mixed-effect satrioventricular model, and sugammadex 2 and 4 mg/kg have similar pharmacokinetics in infants and young children undergoing daytime surgery.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between NUDT15 gene polymorphism and tolerance to treatment with 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).Methods:Fifty-eight children diagnosed with ALL in Shanxi Children's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were recruited. All of them were treated with CCLG-ALL2018 chemotherapy regimen and the bone marrow showed complete remission. They received 6-MP oral treatment during maintenance treatment. Single nucleotide polymorphism of NUDT15 gene was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The bone marrow suppression after 6-MP treatment and 6-MP tolerance dose in patients with different NUDT15 genotypes were analyzed.Results:Among 58 patients, 3 patients had NUDT15 TT genotype, 46 patients had CC genotype and 9 patients had TC genotype. During maintenance treatment with 6-MP, the differences in leukocyte count, hemoglobin and platelet count among the three groups of patients with different NUDT15 genotypes were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Among 58 patients, 23 (39.66%) patients had varying degrees of neutropenia after medication, including 16 cases of NUDT15 CC genotype, 5 cases of TC genotype and 2 cases of TT genotype. There was a statistically significant difference in bone marrow suppression among the three groups ( H = 29.10, P < 0.05). The dosages of 6-MP used in patients with TT, CC and TC genotypes were (10.4±8.8) mg·m -2·d -1, (41.5±1.3) mg·m -2·d -1 and (36.7±2.4) mg·m -2·d -1, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 16.95, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Children with different NUDT15 genotypes have different tolerance to 6-MP, and NUDT15 gene polymorphism is associated with 6-MP intolerance during maintenance treatment in children with ALL, which may affect the treatment of the disease.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) at Neiguan on dexmedetomidine-induced bradycardia in patients.Methods:Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 20-50 yr, weighing 48-60 kg, scheduled for elective gynecological surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C) and TEAS group (group T). Dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg was infused intravenously over 10 min followed by intravenous infusion 0.5 μg·kg -1·min -1 in two groups, and the patients in group T simultaneously received TEAS (frequency 2/100 Hz, disperse-dense wave, intensity 5-10 mA according to the current that could be tolerated) at bilateral Neiguan acupoints.The stimulator was only connected, and no current was given in group C. Before the infusion of dexmedetomidine (T 0) and at 10 min of dexmedetomidine infusion (T 1), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) was recorded, and electrocardiogram (ECG) was collected to calculate the PR interval, QT interval, QT interval, Tp-e interval and index of cardiac electrophysiological balance (iCEB). The development of arrhythmia was recorded. Results:Compared with the baseline value at T 0, HR was significantly decreased, and QT interval and PR interval were prolonged at T 1 in two groups, and iCEB was increased, and Tp-e interval was prolonged at T 1 in group C ( P<0.05). Compared with group C, HR was significantly increased, PR interval and Tp-e interval were shortened at T 1, and the incidence of bradycardia and atrioventricular block was increased in group T ( P<0.05). Conclusion:TEAS at Neiguan can decrease the risk of bradycardia induced by dexmedetomidine, and the mechanism may be related to shortening atrioventricular conduction time and reducing heterogeneity of ventricular repolarization in patients.

Objective:To seek a minimally invasive method for costal cartilage harvest by using two different costal cartilage harvest techniques in rhinoplasty and to compare their influence on donor site pain.Methods:Fourty-three female patients who underwent costal cartilage harvest for rhinoplasty from Dec. 2016 to Dec. 2017 were randomly divided into two groups. We harvested the right side seventh costal cartilage in both groups. In control group, we harvested a full thickness segment of costal cartilage in each patient, whereas we harvested a split thickness segment of costal cartilage by preserving the superior strip in experimental group. Donor site pain was evaluated via visual analogue scale (VAS) 6 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h after surgery.Results:The VAS scores (mean±standard deviation) at different time points in the control group were (5.515±1.085), (5.250±1.302), (5.315±1.117) and (4.895±1.042). And in the experimental group, they were (2.665±0.713), (2.261±0.642), (1.609±0.398) and (1.383±0.514), respectively. The VAS scores at different time points were significantly higher in the control group than that in the experimental group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The superior strip preserved costal cartilage harvest technique significantly reduces postoperative donor site pain.

Bone defect repairing and reconstruction has been a hot research topic in orthopedics for a long time. Tissue engineering and stem cell technology have made a series of important achievements in promoting bone regeneration to treat bone defect. In recent years, 3D bio-printing, which combining with 3D printing, tissue engineering and stem cell technology, has significant advantages in optimizing the geometry, mechanical properties and biological functions of repairing tissue for bone defect by accurately controlling the shape and internal structure of scaffolds, and printing biomaterials, stem cells and (or) cells into three-dimensional biological functional structures. A series of important progress has been achieved. The common printing methods for bio-printing related to orthopedic include: Inkjet 3D bioprinting; microextrusion 3D bioprinting; laser-assisted 3D bioprinting; stereolithography; microvalve based 3D bioprinting. Various printing methods and principles are not the same, and each has advantages and disadvantages, and the applicable "bio ink" is also different. The key technologies of orthopedic bio-3D printing include: the methods of image data acquisition and 3D structure design; development and application of composite bio-scaffold materials suitable for 3D printing, tissue engineering and bone-enhancing effect; stem cell selection for ensuring graft biological performance and induced pluripotent stem cell technology; in vitro bioreactor technology for improving the maturity and biocharacterization of bioprinted tissues. The literature published in the field of biological 3D printing research has continued to grow at a high rate since 2008. Using the bibliometric analysis software VOSviewer to create a co-word matrix for high-frequency keywords and to draw a keyword co-occurrence network map analysis, biological 3D printing research hotspots are the use of tissue engineering methods to 3D printed tissue scaffolds, while studying cell survival and drug effects. The instruments and methods of bio-3D printing are also one of the research hotspots.
