Objective To establish the functional constipated mouse model by compound diphenoxylate, and explore the anti-constipation effect of black garlic polysaccharide. Methods Mouse small intestine ink propulsion experiment and mouse defecation experiment were carried out respectively. The mice in each experiment were randomly divided into blank group, model group, positive group and black garlic polysaccharide (0.25, 0.5, 1 g/kg) groups. Mice in blank group and model group were given distilled water, and in positive group were given lactulose oral solution. Compound diphenoxylate (5 mg/kg) was intragastric administrated after 1 week of administration, and small intestine propulsion experiment and defecation experiment were conducted respectively. Results Compared with model group, intestinal propulsion rate of black garlic polysaccharide groups was significantly increased and first dejection time was significantly shorten, and the number, weight and fecal water content increased significantly at 6 h in middle and high dose groups. Conclusion Black garlic polysaccharide could promote intestinal propelling, shorten defecation time and increase fecal water content.

China Pharmacy 2025;36(13):1629-1634
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of different sequential treatment regimens for human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER-2)-positive advanced gastric cancer from the perspective of the Chinese health system. METHODS Survival data were obtained from the ToGA, WJOG 4007 and RAINBOW-Asia trials, and adjusted using network meta-analysis. A four-state Markov model was constructed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of six treatment sequences, with a lifetime simulation horizon and a cycle period of 4 weeks (28 d), and the main output parameters of the model included total costs, quality-adjusted life year (QALY), and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio (ICER). Sensitivity analysis was conducted to test the robustness of the basic analysis results, and a price reduction scenario analysis for trastuzumab was performed. RESULTS Compared with chemotherapy sequentially treated with paclitaxel, the ICER of trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy sequentially treated with paclitaxel, or irinotecan, or ramucirumab plus paclitaxel were 349 845.25, 772 410.64, and 2 510 470.39 yuan/QALY, respectively, all exceeding three times China’s 2023 per capita gross domestic product (GDP) (268 074 yuan/QALY) as the willingness-to-pay (WTP) threshold. This indicated that chemotherapy sequential paclitaxel was the optimal treatment regimen. The sensitivity analysis confirmed the robustness of the basic analysis. The scenario analysis showed that when trastuzumab was reduced by more than 20%, trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy sequentially treated with paclitaxel became cost-effective under this study’s WTP threshold. CONCLUSIONS When using three times China’s 2023 per capita GDP as the WTP threshold, chemotherapy sequentially treated with paclitaxel is the optimal regimen for HER-2 positive advanced gastric cancer, with trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy sequentially treated with paclitaxel as the second best option. With enhanced medical insurance optimization, trastuzumab combined with chemotherapy sequentially treated with paclitaxel is expected to become the most cost-effective treatment regimen.

Objective:
Surgical procedures for patients with posttraumatic syringomyelia (PTS) remain controversial. Until now, there have been no effective quantitative evaluation methods to assist in selecting appropriate surgical plans before surgery.
Methods:
We consecutively enrolled PTS patients (arachnoid lysis group, n = 42; shunting group, n = 14) from 2003 to 2023. Additionally, 19 intrathecal anesthesia patients were included in the control group. All patients with PTS underwent physical and neurological examinations and spinal magnetic resonance imaging preoperatively, 3–12 months postoperatively and during the last follow-up. Preoperative lumbar puncture was performed and blood-spinal cord barrier disruption was detected by quotient of albumin (Qalb, cerebrospinal fluid/serum).
Results:
The ages (p = 0.324) and sex (p = 0.065) of the PTS and control groups did not differ significantly. There were also no significant differences in age (p = 0.216), routine blood data and prognosis (p = 0.399) between the arachnoid lysis and shunting groups. But the QAlb level of PTS patients was significantly higher than that of the control group (p < 0.001), and the shunting group had a significantly higher QAlb (p < 0.001) than the arachnoid lysis group. A high preoperative QAlb (odds ratio, 1.091; 95% confidence interval, 1.004–1.187; p = 0.041) was identified as the predictive factor for the shunting procedure, with the receiver operating characteristic curve showing 100% specificity and 80.95% sensitivity for patients with a QAlb > 12.67.
Conclusion
Preoperative QAlb is a significant predictive factor for the types of surgery. For PTS patients with a QAlb > 12.67, shunting represents the final recourse, necessitating the exploration and development of novel treatments for these patients.

Objective:To dynamically monitor the changes of fibrinogen-like protein 2 (FGL2), Vaspin and transport protein (TSPO) in the perioperative period of craniocerebral trauma, and analyze their correlation with disease progression and significance.Methods:One hundred and eight patients with craniocerebral trauma admitted to Hubei Jianghan Oilfield General Hospital Guanghuayuan District from June 2019 to June 2022 were selected and according the scores of Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) at 3 months postoperatively they were divided into good group (GOS 4 - 5 scores, 68 cases) and poor group (GOS 1 - 3 scores, 40 cases). The changes of FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO were monitored and compared between the two groups at preoperatively, 1 d postoperatively and 3 d postoperatively. Pearson analysis was applied to analyze the relationship between FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO at 1, 3 d postoperatively. The value of FGL2, Vaspin, TSPO and combined prediction of disease regression at 3 d postoperatively was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The rate of multiple injuries and brain herniation formation in the poor group were higher than those in the good group: 30.00% (12/40) vs. 7.35% (5/68), 20.00% (8/40) vs. 2.94% (2/68), and the scores of Glasgow coma scale (GCS) was lower than that in the good group: (8.04 ± 1.25) scores vs. (9.18 ± 1.33) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The levels of FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO were all higher at 1 d postoperatively than before surgery in patients with different disease regressions, with each index decreasing at 3 d postoperatively compared with 1 d postoperatively in the good group, but continuing to increase at 3 d postoperatively in the bad group ( P<0.05). The levels of FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO in the poor group were higher than those in the good group at 1 d and 3 d postoperatively: at 1 d postoperatively: (314.01 ± 88.67) μg/L vs. (275.33 ± 79.24) μg/L, (0.27 ± 0.08) μg/L vs. (0.22 ± 0.07) μg/L, (3.28 ± 1.03) μg/L vs. (2.01 ± 0.64) μg/L; at 3 d postoperatively: (374.85 ± 92.33) μg/L vs. (259.94 ± 81.78) μg/L, (0.30 ± 0.09) μg/L vs. (0.20 ± 0.06) μg/L, (3.77 ± 1.15) μg/L vs. (1.68 ± 0.52) μg/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The results of Pearson analysis showed that FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO were negatively correlated with GOS scores at 1 d and 3 d postoperatively (at 1 d postoperatively: r = - 0.729, - 0.796, - 0.814, P<0.05; at 3 d postoperatively: r = - 0.862, - 0.855, - 0.905, P<0.05), FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO were more strongly correlated with GOS scores at 3 d postoperatively (larger r values). The results of ROC curve analysis showed that FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO all had a predictive value for disease regression, and the area under the curve of FGL2 combined with Vaspin and TSPO was the largest (0.923 , 95% CI 0.855 to 0.965). Conclusions:There are many influencing factors in the prognosis of craniocerebral trauma. The changes of FGL2, Vaspin and TSPO during the perioperative period can predict the progress and regression of patients, and the combined dynamic monitoring is more conductive to evaluate the prognosis.
