Pulmonary vascular remodeling is the core pathological feature in the onset and pro-gression of pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH).Currently,there is no well-defined therapeutic strategy that can effectively delay or reverse this process.Despite the widespread clinical application of targeted vasodilator drugs,patients still face a high risk of mortality and adverse cardiovascular e-vents,suggesting an urgent need to explore new pathological mechanisms and therapeutic targets.In recent years,the relationship between dyslipidemia and PAH has garnered increasing attention.This article aimed to review the role of lipid metabolism disorders in pulmonary vascular remodeling in pul-monary arterial hypertension and its underlying mechanism,with the hope of providing new interven-tion targets for the treatment of PAH,thereby improving patient survival rates and quality of life.

Objective To investigate the relationships of the expression of interferon-induced protein 27(IFI27)and dynamin 3(DNM3)with angiogenesis and platinum-resistant recurrence in epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC).Methods A prospective cohort study design was adopted,and 129 EOC patients scheduled for surgery combined with platinum-based chemotherapy were enrolled as the study subjects.Cancerous tissues and adjacent non-cancerous tissues were collected from the pa-tients.The expression levels of IFI27 mRNA and DNM3 mRNA in the tissue samples were detected using real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).The expressions of angiogenesis markers,microvascular density(MVD)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),were detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).After surgery,the patients received standard platinum-based chemotherapy regimen.They were regularly followed up for recurrence and divided into platinum-resistant group and platinum-sensitive group.The associations of the expressions of IFI27 and DNM3 with platinum-resistant recurrence were analyzed.Results All 129 patients completed surgery combined with chemotherapy.Forty-nine patients with chemotherapy-resistant recurrence were included in platinum-resistant group,and the remaining 80 patients were included in platinum-sensitive group.There was a significant difference in the degree of differentiation between the two groups(P=0.001).The expression level of IFI27 mRNA in cancerous tissues was higher than that in adjacent non-cancerous tissues,while the expression level of DNM3 mRNA was lower than that in adjacent non-cancerous tissues.The expression levels of MVD and VEGF were higher than those in adjacent non-cancerous tissues,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.001).In the plati-num-resistant group,the expression level of IFI27 mRNA was higher than that in the platinum-sensi-tive group,the expression level of DNM3 mRNA was lower than that in the platinum-sensitive group,and the expression levels of MVD and VEGF were higher than those in the platinum-sensitive group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05 or P＜0.001).Pearson correlation analy-sis showed that the expressions of VEGF and MVD in EOC patients were positively correlated with the expression of IFI27(r=0.643,0.765,P＜0.05),respectively,and negatively correlated with the expression of DNM3(r=-0.573,-0.632,P＜0.05),respectively.Low degree of differen-tiation and high expression of IFI27 were independent risk factors for platinum-resistant recurrence in EOC patients(P＜0.05),while high expression of DNM3 was an independent protective factor(P＜0.05).The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the area under the curve(AUC)for the combined prediction of platinum-resistant recurrence in EOC patients by IFI27 and DNM3 was 0.863,which was greater than the AUCs for their individual indicators(0.815,0.704).Conclusion High expression of IFI27 and low expression of DNM3 are significantly asso-ciated with angiogenesis and platinum-resistant recurrence in EOC.Their combined detection has a high predictive efficacy for platinum-resistant recurrence in EOC patients within one year.

Sepsis is a multi-organ dysfunction syndrome caused by infection and immune dysfunction, with a high mortality rate. It affects multiple important organs such as the heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and brain. Establishing corresponding animal models of organ dysfunction syndrome is an essential step in clarifying its pathogenesis, researching potential effective drugs, and evaluating the effectiveness and safety of treatment plans. This article first summarizes classic modeling methods for sepsis related organ injury, including the destruction of intestinal barrier tissue integrity and the implantation of pathogens or toxic drugs. The former mainly includes cecal ligation and puncture, ascending colon stent implantation, and cecal ligation incision. The latter is divided into intraperitoneal injection, intravenous injection, and intratracheal administration based on the clinical infection route being simulated. Cecal ligation and puncture and lipopolysaccharide intraperitoneal injection are the most commonly used methods. Secondly, this article summarizes the common modeling methods and evaluation methods for animal models of sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy, acute lung injury, acute kidney injury, acute liver injury, and brain dysfunction. It points out that almost all organ injuries use classic modeling methods, and different organ injury models have additional modifications according to their different pathogenesis. For example, in addition to the classic modeling methods, lipopolysaccharide instillation in the trachea is more effective in modeling acute lung injury as it better simulates lung barrier dysfunction. Cecal ligation and puncture followed by Pseudomonas instillation in the trachea in a secondary challenge model better represents sepsis-induced acute kidney injury. Intraperitoneal injection of galactosamine is a mature modeling method of sepsis-induced acute liver injury. Intracerebral injection of lipopolysaccharide is a feasible model of sepsis-associated encephalopathy. In addition to the different modeling methods, there are differences in the administration time, dosage and experimental time points according to the different experimental purposes. This article reviews the research progress of animal experimental models for sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy, acute lung injury, acute kidney injury, acute liver injury, and brain dysfunction, aiming to provide a reference for the selection of animal experimental models and optimization of experimental design.

The use of mechanical ventilation is more common in the diagnosis and treatment of clinical critically ill patients. However, in the process of mechanical ventilation, it may be difficult to withdraw from the machine due to various factors other than the primary disease. Among them, intra-abdominal hypertension, accumulation of analgesic and sedative drugs, and weakness of diaphragmatic function are common causes of difficulty in weaning. Acupuncture has obvious efficacy in regulating gastrointestinal function, exerting analgesic and sedative effect and improving muscle weakness. Acupuncture intervention can optimize the scheme of mechanical ventilation weaning, and improve the success rate by correcting different concurrent factors.
