BACKGROUND:In vitro construction of tissue-engineered intestinal models plays an important role in intestinal regeneration and intestinal disease research.The interaction of intestinal nervous system and intestinal epithelial barrier to maintain body homeostasis is a hot topic in the bionic construction of tissue-engineered intestinal tract.OBJECTIVE:To construct a bionic model that can mimic the enteric nervous system in vivo.METHODS:Using fibroin protein with villus structure as scaffold,human induced neural stem cells solidified with collagen were added to intestinal epithelial cells(Caco-2 and HT29-MTX-E12)for 3-day culture to construct a co-culture system of intestinal epithelial cells and nerve cells(co-culture group).Human induced neural stem cells or intestinal epithelial cells cultured alone that were inoculated with fibroin scaffolds were set as controls.Cell morphology was observed by scanning electron microscopy and hematoxylin-eosin staining.Cell activity was detected by Live/Dead cell staining.Human induced neural stem cell differentiation was detected by β-microtubulin immunofluorescence staining.Intestinal epithelial histological properties and barrier function were detected by microvillin,sucrase-isomaltase,tight junction protein 1,E-calmodulin,and mucin-2 immunofluorescence staining.The function of mucus secretion from intestinal epithelial cells was detected by Alcian blue staining.Alkaline phosphatase staining was performed to detect differentiation of intestinal epithelial cells,at the same time,sucrase-isomaltase,tight junction protein 1,and alkaline phosphatase mRNAs were detected by RT-qRCR.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The neuralized intestinal mucosal co-culture model with villi structure was successfully constructed,and neural stem cells and intestinal epithelial cells on the fibroin scaffold showed good cellular activities.After neuralization,the activity of alkaline phosphatase and sucrase-isomaltase in intestinal epithelial cells was enhanced,while the expression level of tight junction protein 1 was up-regulated.To conclude,the neuralized bionic intestinal epithelial model is beneficial to the maturation of intestinal mucosal epithelial cells and the formation of barrier function.

Background:
Intraoperative hypercapnia reduces the time to emergence from volatile anesthetics, but few clinical studies have explored the effect of hypercapnia on the emergence time from intravenous (IV) anesthesia. We investigated the effect of inducing mild hypercapnia during the recovery period on the emergence time after total IV anesthesia (TIVA).
Methods:
Adult patients undergoing transurethral lithotripsy under TIVA were randomly allocated to normocapnia group (end-tidal carbon dioxide [ETCO2] 35–40 mmHg) or mild hypercapnia group (ETCO2 50-55 mmHg) during the recovery period. The primary outcome was the extubation time. The spontaneous breathing-onset time, voluntary eye-opening time, and hemodynamic data were collected. Changes in the cerebral blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery were assessed using transcranial Doppler ultrasound.
Results:
In total, 164 patients completed the study. The extubation time was significantly shorter in the mild hypercapnia (13.9 ± 5.9 min, P = 0.024) than in the normocapnia group (16.3 ± 7.6 min). A similar reduction was observed in spontaneous breathing-onset time (P = 0.021) and voluntary eye-opening time (P = 0.008). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the adjusted ETCO2 level was a negative predictor of extubation time. Middle cerebral artery blood flow velocity was significantly increased after ETCO2 adjustment for mild hypercapnia, which rapidly returned to baseline, without any adverse reactions, within 20 min after extubation.
Conclusions
Mild hypercapnia during the recovery period significantly reduces the extubation time after TIVA. Increased ETCO2 levels can potentially enhance rapid recovery from IV anesthesia.

Objective:To investigate and analyze the thyroid examination results and influencing factors of interventional radiation workers in Tianjin.Methods:In February 2023, A convenient sampling method was used to select the staff engaged in interventional radiation work in an occupational health inspection institution in Tianjin from 2020 to 2022 as the study object. After excluding the incomplete data, 1080 people were included, and 363 medical staff with non-radiological work during the same period were included as the control group. To analyze the individual doses and occupational health examination data of interventional radiation workers, and to analyze the possible influencing factors of thyroid abnormalities.Results:The cumulative dose M ( Q1, Q3) of interventional radiation workers was 1.039 (0.528, 1.905) mSv. The levels of FT 3 and FT 4 in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group, while TSH levels were lower than those in the control group ( Z=4.84、6.03、-5.82, P<0.05). The levels of FT 3 and FT 4 in female interventional radiation workers were lower than those in males, while the levels of TSH were higher than those in males ( Z= -17.54、-6.65、3.61, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in FT 3 levels among different ages, differen tradiation exposure years, different initial age of exposure to radiation, and different cumulative doses ( H=47.22、11.33、16.70, Z=-2.48, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in thyroid ultrasound abnormalities among different genders, different ages, different initial age of exposure to radiation, and different cumulative doses ( χ2=28.02、61.12、17.87、11.30, P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of FT 3 distributed in the low-level group were female ( OR=10.53, 95% CI: 7.66-14.47, P<0.05), and age 40-49, ≥50 years old ( OR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.12-5.14 OR=3.79, 95% CI: 1.59-9.03, P<0.05). The influencing factors of thyroid ultrasound abnormalities were female ( OR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.48-2.50, P<0.05) and age ≥50 years old ( OR=3.93, 95% CI: 1.91-8.09, P<0.05) . Conclusion:Long term low dose ionizing radiation has a certain effect on FT 3, FT 4 and TSH levels of interventional radiation workers. Gender and increased age are possible influencing factors of the decreased FT 3 levels and thyroid ultrasound abnormalities.
