[Abstract] [Objective] To investigate the clinical efficacy of intrauterine perfusion of different concentrations of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of thin endometrium. [Methods] A total of 35 cases of infertility patients who underwent autologous PRP intrauterine perfusion to improve thin endometrium from January 2022 to February 2024 at Run Run Shaw Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine were selected as the study objects. The significance of intrauterine perfusion of PRP on endometrium thickening was evaluated by analyzing the difference in endometrial thickness before and after ovulation with different concentrations of PRP perfusion. The effect of PRP on thin endometrial infertility was evaluated by pregnancy outcome index. The influence of endometrial thickness on pregnancy outcome was evaluated by the difference of endometrial thickness between pregnant group and non-pregnant group after autologous PRP perfusion, and the correlation of each index was analyzed. [Results] Among 35 cases of infertility, the endometrial thickness was (4.77±0.87) mm before intrauterine PRP perfusion and (6.13±0.85) mm after intrauterine PRP perfusion, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The increased endometrial thickness was (1.03±0.31) mm, (1.31±0.47) mm and (1.70±0.85) mm in patients with low, medium and high concentration autologous PRP intrauterine perfusion respectively. The pregnancy outcome of 35 patients showed that a clinical pregnancy rate of 31.4% (11/35) and an early miscarriage rate of 0. Statistical analysis of the endometrial thickness during ovulation after PRP perfusion revealed that the endometrial thickness in the pregnant group was (6.64±0.91) mm while in the non-pregnant group it was (5.86±0.69) mm, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). [Conclusion] Intrauterine perfusion of autologous PRP in patients with thin endometrial infertility is helpful for endometrial thickening, and PRP with high concentration of platelets is more effective, thus better improving pregnancy outcome, and has clinical significance for the treatment of thin endometrial infertility.

Demographic data were collected through questionnaires. The 3 ml of blood samples were collected from individuals aged 0-4 years and 5 ml of blood samples were collected from individuals aged 5-14 years to test HBsAg, HBcAb and HBsAb. Data on vaccination were collected through Henan Provincial Immunization Information System and hepatitis B cases in Henan Province were collected through China Infectious Disease Reporting System. The effectiveness of the childhood HepB immunization program was analyzed.Results:The average age of 4 883 subjects was (7.32±2.81) years old. The positive rates of HBsAg and HBcAb were 0.1% (7/4 883) and 1.0% (50/4 883), and the population standardized rates were 0.3% and 1.7%. In 2002, the positive rate of HBsAg among adolescents aged 0-14 years in Henan Province was 3.39%. Compared with that in 2002, the number of chronic HBV infections among adolescents in Henan Province in 2022 decreased by about 0.7 million. In 2002, the vaccination rate of newborns who completed all three doses of vaccine was 6.26%. In 2003, the vaccination rate of the hepatitis B vaccine rose rapidly, reaching 90% in 2013 for the first time. After 2014, the vaccination rate in Henan Province continued to remain above 95%. The proportion of cases among children aged 1-4 years in clinical reports decreased from 0.43% (1 108/256 566) in 2006 to 0.01% (78/80 655) in 2021. The proportion of cases among adolescents aged 5-19 years decreased from 18.21% (46 710/256 566) in 2006 to 1.1% (827/80 655) in 2021.Conclusions:From 2002 to 2022, the positive rate of HBsAg among adolescents aged 0-14 years has decreased significantly in Henan Province.

Inhibiting the death receptor 3(DR3)signaling pathway in group 3 innate lymphoid cells(ILC3s)pre-sents a promising approach for promoting mucosal repair in individuals with ulcerative colitis(UC).Paeoniflorin,a prominent component of Paeonia lactiflora Pall.,has demonstrated the ability to restore barrier function in UC mice,but the precise mechanism remains unclear.In this study,we aimed to delve into whether paeoniflorin may promote intestinal mucosal repair in chronic colitis by inhibiting DR3 signaling in ILC3s.C57BL/6 mice were subjected to random allocation into 7 distinct groups,namely the control group,the 2%dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)group,the paeoniflorin groups(25,50,and 100 mg/kg),the anti-tumor necrosis factor-like ligand 1A(anti-TL1A)antibody group,and the IgG group.We detected the expression of DR3 signaling pathway proteins and the proportion of ILC3s in the mouse colon using Western blot and flow cytometry,respectively.Meanwhile,DR3-overexpressing MNK-3 cells and 2% DSS-induced Rag1-/-mice were used for verification.The results showed that paeoniflorin alleviated DSS-induced chronic colitis and repaired the intestinal mucosal barrier.Simultaneously,paeoniflorin inhibited the DR3 signaling pathway in ILC3s and regulated the content of cytokines(interleukin-17A,granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor,and interleukin-22).Alternatively,paeoniflorin directly inhibited the DR3 signaling pathway in ILC3s to repair mucosal damage indepen-dently of the adaptive immune system.We additionally confirmed that paeoniflorin-conditioned me-dium(CM)restored the expression of tight junctions in Caco-2 cells via coculture.In conclusion,paeoniflorin ameliorates chronic colitis by enhancing the intestinal barrier in an ILC3-dependent manner,and its mechanism is associated with the inhibition of the DR3 signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze the survival time, prognostic factors and the value of postoperative thoracic radiotherapy in resected small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients.Methods:Clinic opathological data of SCLC patients who received surgical treatment in Cancer Hospital & General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from April 2014 to September 2021 were enrolled in this retrospective study. All patients were subject to follow-up. The survival time of SCLC patients was evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate and multivariate analyses of prognostic factors were performed by Cox proportional hazard model.Results:A total of 64 patients with SCLC were enrolled in the study. The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 43.5%. Univariate analysis showed that TNM staging ( P=0.027), postoperative neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) ( P=0.039) and adjuvant thoracic radiotherapy ( P=0.041) were the prognostic factors. Multivariate analysis showed that TNM staging ( P=0.038) and adjuvant thoracic radiotherapy ( P=0.022) were the prognostic factors in patients with SCLC. The 5-year OS rates of patients with and without adjuvant thoracic radiotherapy were 71.6% and 35.4% ( P=0.028), respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the 5-year OS rates between pathological stage N 2 SCLC patients with or without adjuvant thoracic radiotherapy (75.0% vs. 0%, P=0.030). Conclusions:TNM staging and postoperative adjuvant thoracic radiotherapy are prognostic factors in patients with SCLC undergoing surgical treatment. Pathological stage N 2 SCLC patients can benefit from adjuvant thoracic radiotherapy.
