Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of the combined therapy of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and anisodamine hydrobromide in the treatment of sepsis-induced coagulopathy(SIC).Methods A total of 102 SIC patients treated in our hospital from Sep-tember 2021 to September 2024 were selected as study subjects.They were divided into control group(n=51)and experimental group(n=51)according to different treatment methods.The control group received conventional treatment,while the experimental group received an additional combined therapy of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis and anisodamine hydrobromide on the basis of the control group.Coagulation function and thrombotic risk were assessed in both groups before treatment and at 24,48,and 72 h after treatment.Clinical efficacy and treatment safety were com-pared,and lactate clearance rate was measured before treatment and at 2,6,and 24 h after treat-ment.Results After treatment,the levels of thrombin time(TT),prothrombin time(PT),acti-vated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),and D-dimer(D-D)decreased,while the platelet(PLT)count and fibrinogen(FIB)levels increased compared with treatment before,with all differ-ences being statistically significant(P<0.05).At 24 hours post-treatment,the TT,PT,and D-D levels in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05),whereas no significant differences were observed in the remaining indicators(P>0.05).At 48 hours post-treat-ment,the TT,PT,APTT,and D-D levels in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group,while the PLT level was higher(P<0.05).At 72 hours post-treatment,the TT,PT,and APTT levels in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group,whereas the PLT and FIB levels were higher(P<0.05).The levels of the four new thrombotic indicators,namely thrombomodulin(TM),thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT),plasmin-α2-antiplasmin complex(PIC),and tissue plasminogen activator-plasminogen activator inhibitor complex(t-PAIC),decreased with prolonged treatment duration in both groups,with differences in different time points being statistically significant(P<0.05).At 24 hours post-treatment,the TM and TAT levels in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group,with both differences being statistical-ly significant(P<0.05).At 48 hours post-treatment,the TM,PIC,and t-PAIC levels in the ex-perimental group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).At 72 hours post-treat-ment,the levels of four indicators thrombosis in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group,but only the differences in TM and PIC levels were statistically significant(P<0.05).The thromboelastography indicators,including R value,K value,and maximum amplitude(MA)decreased,while α angle increased with prolonged treatment duration in both groups(P<0.05).At 24 and 48 hours post-treatment,the R value in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group,with both differences being statistically significant(P<0.05).At 72 hours post-treatment,the R value,and MA in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment(SOFA)score,SIC score,and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ score decreased post-treatment in both groups compared with pretreatment levels,and were lower in the experimental group than in the con-trol group(P<0.05).The lactate clearance rate increased with prolonged treatment duration in both groups(P<0.05).At 2,6,and 24 hours post-treatment,the lactate clearance rate in the ex-perimental group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).The 28-day survival rate was 100.00%in the experimental group,which was higher than 92.16%in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The combined therapy of promoting blood circulation and removing blood sta-sis and anisodamine hydrobromide has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of SIC.It can improve patients' coagulation function,reduce thrombotic risk,and has high treatment safety.

Metastasis accounts for 90% of breast cancer deaths, where the lethality could be attributed to the poor drug accumulation at the metastatic loci. The tolerance to chemotherapy induced by breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs) and their particular redox microenvironment further aggravate the therapeutic dilemma. To be specific, therapy-resistant BCSCs can differentiate into heterogeneous tumor cells constantly, and simultaneously dynamic maintenance of redox homeostasis promote tumor cells to retro-differentiate into stem-like state in response to cytotoxic chemotherapy. Herein, we develop a specifically-designed biomimic platform employing neutrophil membrane as shell to inherit a neutrophil-like tumor-targeting capability, and anchored chemotherapeutic and BCSCs-differentiating reagents with nitroimidazole (NI) to yield two hypoxia-responsive prodrugs, which could be encapsulated into a polymeric nitroimidazole core. The platform can actively target the lung metastasis sites of triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), and release the escorted drugs upon being triggered by the hypoxia microenvironment. During the responsiveness, the differentiating agent could promote transferring BCSCs into non-BCSCs, and simultaneously the nitroimidazole moieties conjugated on the polymer and prodrugs could modulate the tumor microenvironment by depleting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate hydrogen (NADPH) and amplifying intracellular oxidative stress to prevent tumor cells retro-differentiation into BCSCs. In combination, the BCSCs differentiation and tumor microenvironment modulation synergistically could enhance the chemotherapeutic cytotoxicity, and remarkably suppress tumor growth and lung metastasis. Hopefully, this work can provide a new insight in to comprehensively treat TNBC and lung metastasis using a versatile platform.

The prevention and treatment of posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a difficult problem for hepatectomy. PHLF is characterized by many risk factors, limited treatment methods and high mortality. There are many factors that lead to the insufficient quantity or quality of postoperative remnant liver cells, such as the comorbid conditions of patients, underlying disease of the liver, excessive liver resection and so on, which are increase the incidence of PHLF. However, the therapeutic treatment of PHLF is limited at present, the key to reduce the morbidity and mortality of PHLF lies in the accurate evaluation and screening of high-risk patients. This paper reviewed the relevant literature on the definition, risk factors and clinical prevention and treatment of posthepatectomy liver failure.

Considerable attention has been directed toward studying the impact of diabetes on the central nervous system. The current study investigates the biochemical changes in the brain tissue of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rat using 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P MRS). The 31P NMR spectra of the whole brain show no significant changes of phosphomonoesters and phosphodiesters levels one week after STZ induction, suggesting no apparent structural changes in cell membranes. The results identifies the increased level of adenosine diphosphate, negligible changes of phosphocreatine ( PCr ) and adenosine triphosphate ( ATP) , but the decreased ratio of PCr/ATP, indicating that PCr plays a role of balancing the energy. Moreover, the decreased pH value indicates the changes of the intracellular environment in STZ-diabetic brains in rats. After 15 weeks of STZ injection, the metabolism of phospholipid membrane and brain energy metabolism has been obviously disturbed. Our study successfully shows that 31 P MRS can not only study phospholipid and energy metabolism non-invasively, but also measure intracellular pH and other important biochemical information. All of these spectroscopic characterizations contribute significantly to the understanding of pathogenesis and evolution of diabetes, and provide theoretical basis for early diagnosis and clinical treatment in diabetes.
