Objective To investigate the perioperative management of antithrombotic drugs in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.Methods Patients on long-term antithrombotic drugs who underwent non-cardiac surgery in our hospital were included.Through interviews with patients and physicians,perioperative antithrombotic medication regimens were reviewed and compared with the"Multidisciplinary Expert Consensus on Perioperative Management of Antithrombotic Therapy"to evaluate compliance with consensus and analyze influencing factors.Results A total of 372 patients were included in the analysis.Among them,355 patients were on long-term antiplatelet therapy alone,and 17 were on long-term oral anticoagulantion.364(97.8％)discontinued antithrombotic medications prior to surgery.109 patients(29.3％)received low molecular weight heparin(LMWH)bridging therapy.Among the 355 patients on antiplatelet therapy,108(30.4％)had discontinuation durations consistent with the consensus recommendations,while 186(52.4％)discontinued medications for longer periods.Postoperatively,the average hospital stay for antiplatelet therapy patients was 6.64 days,with only 37(10.4％)resuming therapy during hospitalization.The average hospital stay for patients on anticoagulants was 9.94 days,with only 2(11.8％)resuming therapy during hospitalization.Regarding perioperative risk assessment,only 40(10.8％)of patients underwent additional internal medical evaluation for thromboembolic risk after medication discontinuation,with the remainder assessed soly by surgeons.Coronary heart disease was an independent risk factor associated with internal medical evaluation(OR 2.851,95％CI 1.160-7.011,P=0.022).For bleeding risk assessment,surgeons evaluations aligned with the consensus in 68.0％of cases,but surgeons tended to underestimate risk compared to the consensus.Conclusions In this single-center study,perioperative antithrombotic management showed low compliance with expert consensus,characterized by prolonged preoperative medication discontinuation,high rates of LMWH bridging,and low postoperative in-hospital resumption of therapy.A robust multidisciplinary collaboration system should be established to enhance comprehensive patient assessment.

This study was aimed at exploring novel auxiliary diagnostic biomarkers for brucellosis and their potential miR-NA-mRNA regulatory networks.High-throughput sequencing was used to compare miRNA expression differences in serum ex-osomes between patients with brucellosis and healthy controls.Subsequently,RT-qPCR was used to validate the expression of significantly upregulated exosomal miRNAs.The diagnostic value of these miRNAs was assessed with ROC curves,and bioin-formatics analyses were performed to investigate the potential roles of the miRNAs in brucellosis infection.The ROC curve a-nalysis indicated that the area under the curve for exosomal hsa-miR-11400(P＜0.05),hsa-miR-199a-5p(P＜0.05),and hsa-miR-148a-5p(P＜0.05)was 0.79,0.81,and 0.74,respectively.A total of 465 differentially expressed miRNAs and their tar-get genes were predicted,including 25 immune-related target genes,most of which were closely associated with cancer-related proteoglycans,NF-kappa B signaling pathways,and IL-17 signaling pathways.The constructed differentially expressed gene network indicated that the immune genes PLXNA2,IL17RA,PRKCA,CD22,ACVR1B,and CBL might be regulated by hsa-miR-199a-5p and hsa-miR-148a-5p.These findings suggest that exosomal miRNAs might serve as auxiliary diagnostic indicators for brucellosis.Our exosomal miRNA-mRNA regulatory network provides new insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of brucellosis.

Aim To investigate the promotive effects and mechanisms of the combined use of brucine(Bru)and lumbrokinase(LK),active ingredient derived from Longma formula,in promoting chondrocyte proliferation via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Methods The extracted primary rat chondrocytes were divided in-to the following groups:Control group,Bru,LK alone group,and Bro+LK combination group.The optimal drug concentration and intervention time were deter-mined using CCK-8 assay,followed by cell proliferation validation through EdU and phalloidin staining.The expression levels of collagen Ⅱ,aggrecan and SRY-re-lated high-mobility group box gene 9(SOX9)in chon-drocytes following intervention with the combination of Bru and LK were detected by Western blotting.Addi-tionally,the regulatory effects of these proteins on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway were also investiga-ted.Results The optimal combination concentration of Longma formula active ingredients(Bru 0.025 mg·L-1+LK 5 mg·L-1)significantly enhanced chondro-cyte viability compared to control,Bru,or LK alone at 48 h.This combination increased the S-phase ratio,promoted the aggregation of intracellular actin fila-ments,and upregulated the expression of collagen Ⅱ and aggrecan.Furthermore,it activated the Wnt/β-catenin pathway,leading to increased SOX9 expres-sion.Conclusions The optimal combination of Bru and LK(Bru 0.025 mg·L-1+LK 5 mg·L-1)de-rived from Longma formula significantly maintains chondrocyte phenotype and promotes cellular prolifera-tion through the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signa-ling pathway,which subsequently upregulates the downstream target SOX9.

Objective:An in vivo mammalian hepatocyte Unscheduled DNA Synthesis(UDS)test was used to evaluate the genotoxicity of Cross-linked Sodium Hyaluronate Gel and Bone Repair Materials,providing experimental evidence for establishing a UDS testing method for medical devices and materials.Methods:0.9％sodium chloride injection and cottonseed oil were used as the solvent for test materials and negative control,respectively.N-dimethylnitrosamine(NDMA)was used as the positive control for the early sampling times,and 2-acetylaminofluorene(2-AAF)was used as the positive control for the late sampling times.SD rats were administered a single dose for toxic exposure,and liver tissues were collected at 4 h and 16 h,respectively.Hepatocytes were isolated using collagenase perfusion.After labeling with 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine(EdU),and the net average fluorescence intensity(NAFI)of cell nuclei and nucleoplasm was measured by fluorescence microscope.Data from 50 cells were used to analyze the DNA repair level.Results:Compared with the negative control groups,the positive control groups(NDMA and 2-AAF)showed highly statistically significant differences in NAFI(P＜0.01),indicating successful induction of DNA damage.There was no statistically significant differences between the cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel groups,bone repair material groups and the negative control group(P＞0.05),suggesting that these materials did not significantly induce DNA damage under the experimental conditions.Conclusion:This study first applied EdU labeling technology to the in vivo hepatic UDS assay,achieving non-radioactive labeling through click chemistry reactions.Under the conditions of this study,cross-linked sodium hyaluronate gel and bone repair materials did not exhibit genotoxicity.In the follow-up,the sample range can be expanded and the observation period can be prolonged to further improve the genotoxicity evaluation system of medical devices.

Hypercholesterolemia is pathologically characterized by abnormal accumulation of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,which is closely associated with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease and increased cardiovascular risks.Hepatocytes maintain cholesterol homeostasis through LDL receptor-mediated uptake and esterification storage mechanisms.However,chronic cholesterol overload induces mitochondrial dysfunction,reactive oxygen species accumulation,and endoplasmic reticulum stress,leading to hepatocyte injury.Moreover,systemic hypercholesterolemia disrupts gut microbiota balance and impairs short-chain fatty acid and ketone metabolism,exacerbating metabolic disturbances and aggravating hepatic injury through enhanced metabolic stress.In this article,we review the advance of studies on hypercholesterolemia in recent years and summary its association with hepatic injury,which can provide theoretical support for further research.

Epilepsy,as the second most common neurological disease,has diverse causes,complex,difficult to treat,and disabling characteristics,which impose a heavy burden on patients' families and social life.Long term recurrent epileptic seizures and poor control lead to neuronal inactivation and cognitive impairment in patients.Therefore,it is becoming increasingly important to find new targeted treatment methods and explore the molecular regulatory mechanisms of epilepsy on neuronal damage.Iron induced cell death is a novel programmed cell death mediated by ferrous ions,characterized by the accumulation of ferrous ions,harmful lipid peroxides,and lethal reactive oxygen species,leading to damage to mitochondrial function and structure.With recent in-depth research on ferroptosis,it has been found that inhibiting ferroptosis related targets and pathways can alleviate seizures and progression of epilepsy and protect neurons.This article provides a brief overview of the molecular mechanisms and related regulation of ferroptosis,its role in epilepsy,and recent advances in related treatments.

Aim To explore the therapeutic effect of Shenwuyishen tablets(SWYST)in treating chronic kidney disease(CKD)and the underlying mechanism.Methods The pharmacological action of SWYST was evaluated in folic acid(FA)-induced mouse models by levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen,in-dexes of tubulointerstitial inflammation and tubular in-jury,and degrees of renal fibrosis.Differential genes from 22 types of cells in kidney tissue of CKD were i-dentified by single-cell and single-nuclei RNA sequen-cing datasets.Network pharmacology was used to pre-dict key ingredients,cells,and targets.The binding mode between the key ingredients and key targets was elucidated using molecular docking and molecular dy-namics simulation.Results Serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen levels,tubulointerstitial inflamma-tion and tubular injury indexes,and renal fibrosis de-grees were significantly reduced by SWYST administra-tion.Quercetin,kaempferol,luteolin,baicalein and wogonin were considered as key components that main-ly acted through FOS and JUN of endothelial cells,neu-trophils and thick ascending limb cells to ameliorate CKD.Molecular docking and molecular dynamics sim-ulation revealed that quercetin stably occupied the cross pocket of FOS-JUN heterodimers to inhibit the binding between FOS-JUN heterodimers and DNA.Conclusion SWYST inhibits the binding of FOS-JUN heterodimers and DNA of endothelial cells,neutrophils and thick ascending limb cells to ameliorate CKD.
