Methamphetamine (METH) abuse is associated with significant neurotoxicity, high addiction potential, and behavioral abnormalities. Recent studies have identified a connection between the gut microbiota and METH-induced neurotoxicity and behavioral disorders. However, the underlying causal mechanisms linking the gut microbiota to METH pathophysiology remain largely unexplored. In this study, we employed fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) and antibiotic (Abx) intervention to manipulate the gut microbiota in mice administered METH. Furthermore, we supplemented METH-treated mice with short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) and pioglitazone (Pio) to determine the protective effects on gut microbiota metabolism. Finally, we assessed the underlying mechanisms of the gut-brain neural circuit in vagotomized mice. Our data provide compelling evidence that modulation of the gut microbiome through FMT or microbiome knockdown by Abx plays a crucial role in METH-induced neurotoxicity, behavioral disorders, gut microbiota disturbances, and intestinal barrier impairment. Furthermore, our findings highlight a novel prevention strategy for mitigating the risks to both the nervous and intestinal systems caused by METH, which involves supplementation with SCFAs or Pio.

Open abdomen therapy is an effective method for the treatment of severe intra-abdominal infections, abdominal hypertension and other critical abdominal diseases. Bases on systematic reviews of indications, classification and staging of wounds, principles and approaches of open abdomen therapy, abdominal closure measures, and management of enteroatmospheric fistula, the Chinese expert consensus on open abdomen therapy provides 12 recommendations with evidence and specific explanations. This consensus is the first systematic work in China to elaborate on open abdomen therapy, helping clinicians to standardize this technique and improve the treatment outcomes of critical abdominal diseases. In this review, we make interpretations on key points of this consensus one by one.
