BACKGROUND:Our previous studies have found that poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum prepared by electrospinning has good cytocompatibility,but its biocompatibility is unknown. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the biocompatibility of poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum doped with Zn2+and Mg2+. METHODS:Poly(vinylidene fluoride),poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum doped with 1％Zn2+,doped with 1％Mg2+,and doped with 1％(Zn2++Mg2+)were prepared by electrospinning to make bionic periosteum extract.SD rats were selected as the experimental subjects for hemolysis test,short-term systemic toxicity test,and heat source test.Guinea pigs were selected as the experimental subjects for skin sensitization test.The biocompatibility of bionic periosteum of four groups was tested. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The hemolysis test results showed that the hemolysis rates of 1％Zn2+poly(vinylidene fluoride),1％Mg2+poly(vinylidene fluoride),1％Zn2++1％Mg2+poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum and poly(vinylidene fluoride)extract were(0.130±0.013)％,(0.149±0.020)％,(0.466±0.018)％,and(0.037±0.018)％,respectively,which met the hemocompatibility standard of biomaterials.(2)The results of short-term systemic toxicity test showed that the four groups of bionic periosteal extract had no toxic signs such as body mass reduction,food intake changes,and dyspnea in SD rats,and had no toxic effects on major organs of rats.(3)Heat source test results showed that after intervention with poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum doped with 1％Zn2+,doped with 1％Mg2+,and doped with 1％(Zn2++Mg2+),and poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum extract,the elevated body temperature values of SD rats were(0.133±0.058),(0.100±0.010),(0.300±0.010),and(0.300±0.017)℃respectively.All were less than 0.6 ℃and the total temperature increase was less than 1.4 ℃.(4)The results of skin sensitization test showed that no erythema or edema was observed under the skin of guinea pigs after the intervention of bionic periosteum extract of four groups.(5)The results showed that poly(vinylidene fluoride)and poly(vinylidene fluoride)bionic periosteum doped with Zn2+and Mg2+had good biocompatibility.

Objective To investigate the short-and long-term prognoses and the risk factors affecting"text-book outcome"(TO)after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD)for pancreatic ductal adenocar-cinoma(PDAC).Methods The clinical and follow-up data of patients diagnosed with PDAC and treated with LPD from January 2019 to Dec-ember 2022 were retrospectively anal-yzed.The prognosis was compared bet-ween TO and non-TO groups,and uni-variate and multivariate logistic regre-ssion analyses were used to identify independent prognostic factors for TO.Results A total of 284 patients were enrolled in this study,including 185 cases in the TO group and 99 cases in the non-TO group.The 1-,3-and 5-year overall survival(OS)rates of the TO and non-TO groups with PDAC were 87.3%vs.85.9%,52.5%vs.38.4%,and 18.0%vs.4.5%,respectively(P=0.020);the recurrence-free survival(RFS)rates were 74.1%vs.65.7%,27.1%vs.21.0%,and 10.0%vs.0%,respectively(P=0.042).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time>360 min(OR=0.561,95%CI:0.321-0.979,P=0.042),intraoperative blood loss>400 ml(OR=0.392,95%CI:0.175-0.879,P=0.023),hard or tough texture of pancreas(OR=2.240,95%CI:1.247-4.022,P=0.007),and main pancreatic duct dia-meter>3 mm(OR=1.931,95%CI:1.126-3.312,P=0.017)were independent prognostic factors for TO.Conclusion After the learning curve,more than 60%of patients with PDAC can achieve TO after LPD.The chances of achieving TO are significantly reduced when the operation time>360 min,the intraoperative blood loss>400 ml,the texture of pancreas was soft,and the diameter of the main pancreatic duct>3 mm.

Objective To explore the symptom clusters in renal transplant recipients and con-struct a concurrent symptom network to identify core symptoms.Methods A total of 343 patients with followed up after renal transplantation were selected as the study subjects.A general information questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Modified Transplant Symptom Occurrence and Symptom Distress Scale were employed to analyze the occurrence of symptoms in patients.In this study,only symptoms with an incidence rate greater than 20％and Spearman correlation coefficient greater than 0.40 between symptom severity and total score were retained.Exploratory factor analysis was used to extract symptom clusters with a factor loading of ≥0.45 as the criterion.The R language was utilized to construct symptom network,based on which core symptoms and bridge symptoms were identified.Results A total of 5 symptom clusters were extracted in this study:the neuro-gastrointestinal symp-tom cluster,the mood-related symptom cluster,the hormone-related symptom cluster,the energy de-ficiency symptom cluster and the vision-related symptom cluster.The core symptoms were anxiety(rs=1.75),mood swings(rs=1.50)and muscle weakness(rs=1.27).The top three symptoms in terms of bridge strength were muscle weakness(rb=0.87),lack of vitality(rb=0.66)and fa-tigue(rb=0.65).Conclusion Multiple symptoms are presented in patients after renal transplanta-tion.Based on the results of symptom network analysis,clinicians can strengthen the assessment of core symptoms and bridge symptoms to develop precise intervention strategies and improve the effectiveness of symptom management.

Objective To investigate the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)of the EGF gene,including rs11569017(A>T),rs2237051(A>G),rs3733625(C>T),and rs4444903(A>G),and the risk of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)in a Han population of Yunnan.Methods A total of 439 patients with NSCLC and 520 healthy controls were recruited in Yunnan Province between January 2022 and December 2023.Genotyping of four SNP loci in the EGF gene was performed using TaqMan probes,followed by analysis of allele,genotype,genetic model,and haplotype distribution frequencies between NSCLC and control groups.Stratified analyses were further conducted based on NSCLC pathological types and clinical stages.Results The rs2237051 locus showed significant differences in allele(P=0.011)and genotype(P=0.042)frequencies between the squamous cell carcinoma(SCC)group and the control group.The frequency of the A allele was lower in the SCC group than in the control group(OR=0.71,95%CI 0.54～1.85),but there was no difference after Bonferroni correction(P>0.0125).Under the log-additive model,the rs2237051-2G/G+A/G genotype was associated with an increased risk of SCC(P=0.01;OR=1.42,95%CI 1.08～1.86).However,the association lost statistical significance after Bonferroni correction(P>0.0125).The haplotype rs11569017-rs2237051-rs3733625-rs4444903 has no difference between the two groups(P>0.0125).The stratified analysis revealed no significant associations between the genetic loci and different disease stages(P>0.0125).Conclusion In the Yunnan Han population,the individuals carrying the rs2237051-A allele of the EGF gene have a significantly lower risk of squamous lung cancer,but further functional experiments are needed to verify the protective mechanism.

Objective To explore the casual relationship between immune cells and chronic pancreatitis(CP)using Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis.Methods The immune cell phenotypes and CP GWAS data used in this study were obtained from public databases,and 731 immune cell phenotypes were included.The bidirectional MR analysis was used to explore the causal relationship between immune cells and CP,and various sensitivity analysis methods were used to verify the heterogeneity and level multiplicity of the results.Results This study identified 33 immune cell phenotypes with a causal relationship with CP,of which 18 were inhibitory factors,and the rest were risk factors.Among the 18 inhibitory factors,CD25 on CD4+in the Treg cell group showed the most significant inhibitory effect.Among the 15 risk factors,CD8br AC in the TBNK cell group,CD8br on TD CD8br in the mature T cell group,and CD39+CD8br％ T cell and CD28 on CD4+in the Treg cell group showed statistical significance.The reverse MR results further confirmed the unidirectionality of the causal relationship.Conclusion Our study revealed the close relationship between immune cells and CP through MR method,highlighting the complex interaction pattern between the immune system and CP.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the biodistribution of lipid nanoparticles(LNPs)with different surface charges and different particle sizes in mice.METHODS LNPs were prepared using microfluidic technology by incorporating positively charged phospholipids,negatively charged phospholipids,ioniz-able phospholipids,and neutral phospholipids into the formulation to create LNPs with corresponding surface charges.The particle size of the LNPs was controlled by polyethylene glycol(PEG)modifica-tion and measured using dynamic light scattering(DLS)and transmission electron microscopy(TEM),while the surface charge was analyzed using a zeta potential analyzer.The LNPs were labeled with a fluorescent dye,and the mice were intravenously injected with 0.625 μmol·kg-1 of LNPs.At 1,4,12 and 24 h post-injection,the brain,heart,livers,spleen,lungs and kidneys were collected.The fluorescence distribution in different organs was detected using an in vivo imaging system to reflect the distribution of LNPs in various organs.RESULTS Particle size analysis showed that,except the ionizable lipid nanoparticles without PEG modification(LNP-MC3),which had a particle size>200 nm,the particle sizes of positively charged LNPs without PEG modification(LNP-Pos),PEG-modified positively charged LNPs(LNP-Pos-P),PEG-modified neutral LNPs(LNP-Neu-P),PEG-modified ionizable LNPs(LNP-MC3-P),and PEG-modified negatively charged LNPs(LNP-Neg-P)were all<200 nm.Zeta potential analysis revealed that the surface charges of the LNPs were the highest in LNP-Pos,followed by LNP-Pos-P,LNP-MC3-P,LNP-Neu-P,LNP-MC3 and LNP-Neg-P.In vivo imaging results indicated that LNP-Pos-P,LNP-Pos and LNP-MC3-P were primarily distributed in the livers,lungs and kidneys,respectively,while LNP-Neu-P and LNP-Neg-P in the livers,kidneys,and lungs,respectively.The distribution of LNP-MC3-P in the brain,heart,spleen and kidneys peaked at 12 h post-injection,but at 24 h in the livers.The distribution of LNP-Pos-P in the lungs peaked at 1 h post-injection.CONCLUSION LNPs are primarily distributed in the livers.Surface charges influence the second most highly-distributed organs.LNP-Pos-P and LNP-MC3-P are the second most highly-distributed in the lungs,and LNP-Neu-P and LNP-Neg-P in the kidneys.

Results A total of 284 patients were enrolled in this study, including 185 cases in the TO group and 99 cases in the non-TO group. The 1-, 3- and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of the TO and non-TO groups with PDAC were 87.3% vs. 85.9%, 52.5% vs. 38.4%, and 18.0% vs. 4.5%, respectively (P=0.020); the recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 74.1% vs. 65.7%, 27.1% vs. 21.0%, and 10.0% vs. 0%, respectively (P=0.042). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that operation time >360 min (OR=0.561, 95%CI: 0.321-0.979, P=0.042), intraoperative blood loss >400 ml (OR=0.392, 95%CI: 0.175-0.879, P=0.023), hard or tough texture of pancreas (OR=2.240, 95%CI: 1.247-4.022, P=0.007), and main pancreatic duct diameter >3 mm (OR=1.931, 95%CI: 1.126-3.312, P=0.017) were independent prognostic factors for TO. Conclusion After the learning curve, more than 60% of patients with PDAC can achieve TO after LPD. The chances of achieving TO are significantly reduced when the operation time >360 min, the intraoperative blood loss >400 ml, the texture of pancreas was soft, and the diameter of the main pancreatic duct >3 mm.

ObjectiveTo establish the quality standards for Sennae Folium（Cassia angustifolia） dispensing granules based on standard decoctions. MethodsHigh performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） specific chromatograms were established for 15 batches of Sennae Folium（C. angustifolia） standard decoctions and 10 of Sennae Folium（C. angustifolia） dispensing granules from different manufacturers， and the similarity evaluation， hierarchical cluster analysis（HCA） and principal component analysis（PCA） were performed. Linear calibration with two reference substances（LCTRS） and quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker（QAMS） were established for the common peaks in the specific chromatograms to determine the contents of main components in the decoction pieces， standard decoctions and dispensing granules， and to calculate their transfer rates from decoction pieces to standard decoctions and dispensing granules. ResultsThe similarities of specific chromatograms of 15 batches of Sennae Folium（C. angustifolia） standard decoctions and 10 batches of Sennae Folium（C. angustifolia） dispensing granules were all greater than 0.95， and a total of 8 characteristic peaks were calibrated， and five of them were identified， including kaempferol-3，7-O-diglucoside， apigenin-6，8-di-C-glucoside， quercetin-3-O-gentianoside， sennoside B and sennoside A. HCA and PCA results showed that there were certain differences in the composition of different batches of standard decoctions， but no clustering was observed in the production area. As the standard decoctions， the extract rate of 15 batches of samples was 26.54%-45.38%， the contents of kaempferol-3，7-O-diglucoside， apigenin-6，8-di-C-glucoside， quercetin-3-O-gentianoside， sennoside B and sennoside A were 12.16-19.26， 2.57-4.94， 3.27-5.11， 6.75-11.39， 4.69-7.79 mg·g^-1， and their transfer rates from decoction pieces to standard decoctions were 45.41%-79.02%， 29.12%-55.07%， 40.52%-67.90%， 24.72%-49.12%， 27.54%-49.34%， respectively. The extract rates of Sennae Folium（C. angustifolia） dispensing granules（C8-C10） were 38.10%-39.50%， the transfer rates of the above five components from decoction pieces to dispensing granules were 72.85%-73.58%， 53.43%-53.94%， 40.19%-40.74%， 24.62%-25.00%， 28.65%-29.11%， respectively， which were generally consistent with the transfer rates from decoction pieces to standard decoctions. ConclusionCompared with the relative retention time method， LCTRS has higher prediction accuracy and is more suitable for chromatographic columns. The established quality control standard of Sennae Folium（C. angustifolia） dispensing granules based on standard decoction is reasonable and reliable， and all indicators of samples from different manufacturers are within the range specified based on the standard decoction， which can provide reference for the quality control and process research of this dispensing granules.
