The accumulation of uremic toxins such as urea nitrogen, blood creatinine, and uric acid of patients with renal failure in vivo would lead to aggravated kidney damage. In this study, coated aldehyde oxy-starch (CAO) was used as an adsorbent to investigate its in vitro adsorption performance on renal failure indexes for urea, indoxyl sulfate (INS), monomethylamine (MMA), dimethylamine (DMA), uric acid (UA), and creatinine (Cr). The effects of variables such as pH, temperature, concentration, dosage, and time on the adsorption capacity of CAO were systematically investigated, employing analytical techniques of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). The results revealed that CAO exhibited a strong adsorption capacity for urea, INS, and MMA, alongside a moderate adsorption capacity for DMA, UA, and Cr. The adsorption kinetics and thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption of urea and UA by CAO were fitted in pseudo-first-order kinetics, and the adsorption isotherm aligned with the Freundlich adsorption model. The enthalpy change ΔH of urea in adsorption was in the range of 40 to 60 kJ·mol^-1, which demonstrated the presence of strong adsorption force due to the interactions of coordinating groups. The ΔH of UA was greater than 80 kJ·mol^-1, indicating the generation of chemical bonds during the adsorption. Both of them, Gibbs free energy ΔG was less than 0, within the range of -20 to 0 kJ·mol^-1, suggested that the adsorption of urea and UA by CAO occurred spontaneously as physical adsorption process. The adsorption entropy ΔS of urea and UA was > 0, which indicated an increase in entropy throughout the adsorption. The infrared spectroscopygram showed the formation of a chemical bond, specifically the imine bond, following the adsorption of urea by CAO, thereby indicating a chemical reaction during the adsorption. This study elucidates the adsorption mechanism of CAO on various indexes of renal failure, providing a scientific basis for its clinical usage.

Objective:Acute kidney injury(AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery, and associated with increased risk of development of chronic kidney disease and mortality in the long term. Neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio(NPAR) is a new inflammatory marker that has been used to predict the poor prognosis of patients with cardiovascular disease or shock. However, the relationship between NPAR and AKI in patients with cardiac surgery has not been established. The aim was to evaluate the relationship between NPAR and AKI after cardiac surgery.Methods:Data of all adult patients underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2018 were extracted from electronic medical record system of the Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital and retrospectively analyzed. The outcome of interest was AKI diagnosed by using the criteria of Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes. Logistic regression was used to assess the relationship between NPAR and postoperative AKI while adjust for potential confounders. In addition, restricted cubic spline(RCS) was utilized to provide a flexible description of the association of the preoperative NPAR and AKI. Results:Totally, 24 178 patients were analyzed. The incidence of AKI was 30.1%. Compared with patients without AKI, those with AKI were older and had higher rates of males, left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) less than or equal to 0.60, estimated glomerular filtration rate less than 90 ml·min -1·1.73 m -2, hypertension, diabetes, emergency surgery, preoperative critical illness, and reoperation. The baseline serum creatinine, serum uric acid, cardiopulmonary bypass time and postoperative mechanical ventilation time were higher or longer in AKI patients than those in none AKI patients. Then, patients were divided into four groups based on NPAR quartiles. After adjusting for confounding factors using logisitc regression, compared with patients with NPAR in group 3(1.551.97), respectively. The RCS showed a U-shaped nonlinear relationship( P for nonlinear less than 0.001) between NPAR and AKI after adjusting for potential confounding factors. RCS indicated the NPAR of 1.77 was the lowest risk for AKI. When NPAR less than 1.77, per 1-standard deviation(SD) increase in NPAR, the risk of AKI decreased by 23.2%( OR=0.768, 95% CI: 0.687, 0.859). Conversely, when NPAR above 1.77, per one SD increase in NPAR, the risk of AKI increased by 25.9%( OR=1.259, 95% CI: 1.166, 1.36). Conclusion:A U-shaped relationship between NPAR and AKI after cardiac surgery was shown. The appropriate value for NPAR might be 1.77. The risk of AKI might be increased, when less or above this value. NPAR might be used as an effective and economical tool to identify AKI risk among individuals with cardiac surgery, as well as to formulate individualized prevention and intervention strategy.

Objective To analyze the influence of clinical indicators and PPARD gene polymorphism on the hypoglycemic efficacy of dapagliflozin(DAPA)in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 102 patients with T2DM who visited the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University and the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from June 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects,an observational cohort of T2DM patients treated with DAPA was established,and DAPA tablets of 10 mg were administered orally once a day for 12 weeks,the venous blood and clinical data of the patients were col-lected.PPARD gene polymorphism typing was performed by using the Snapshot method.The differences in clinical indicators among patients with different genotypes were compared and the influencing factors of DA-PA in improving insulin resistance index(HOMA-IR)were analyzed.Results Eighty-two patients completed the 12-week follow-up.Before DAPA treatment,the differences in the clinical indicators of patients with dif-ferent PPARD rs3777744 genotypes were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).After 12 weeks of DAPA treatment,compared with patients with AA genotype,patients carried of G allele(GG+AG genotype)had lower levels of fasting blood glucose(FPG),HOMA-IR and its decrease,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the genotype of PPARD rs3777744 locus and baseline HOMA-IR were correlated with the improvement of HOMA-IR after 12 weeks of DAPA treatment,and the improvement of HOMA-IR in G allele carriers was not as significant as that in AA genotype patients,and the higher the baseline HOMA-IR,the more significant the improvement of HO-MA-IR.Conclusion Different genotypes of PPARD rs3777744,baseline HOMA-IR are important influencing factors for DAPA to improve insulin resistance of T2DM patients.

Objective To investigate the impact of noise isolation through the use of noise-cancelling headphones on the quality of postoperative recovery following esophageal or gastric endoscopic submucosal dissec-tion.Methods This is a prospective,parallel-group,randomized controlled clinical trial.Patients aged 18 years or older,regardless of gender and with ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅳ,who underwent elective esophageal or gastric endoscopic submucosal dissection under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation from August 2023 to February 2024 were randomly assigned to either a control group or an observation group using a random number table.In the observation group,noise-cancelling headphones were used to reduce intraoperative noise intensity during general anesthesia,while the control group did not receive any noise isolation measures.The study recorded the average noise intensity during surgery and the proportion of intraoperative time with noise intensity≥70 dB.The primary outcome was the quality of recovery at 24 hours postoperatively,assessed using the 15-item Quality of Recovery Scale(QoR-15).Secondary outcomes included QoR-15 scores at 48 hours postoperatively,resting and movement-evoked pain scores measured by the Visual Analog Pain Scale(VAS)immediately after extubation,upon leaving the resuscitation room,and at 24 and 48 hours postoperatively,as well as analgesic drug consumption during surgery and within 48 hours postoperatively.Additionally,sleep quality was evaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI)at 48 hours postoperatively.Results Compared with the control group,the observation group exhibited a significant increase in QoR-15 score at 24 hours post-surgery[(123.43±5.92)vs.(119.75±6.62),t=3.211,P=0.002].The resting VAS score[1(0,3)vs.2(2,3),Z=-3.755,P<0.001]and movement-evoked VAS score[2(1,3)vs.3(2,3),Z=-2.959,P=0.003]of the observation group immediately after extubation were significantly lower than those of control group.There was no significant difference in resting and movement-evoked VAS scores between the two groups when leaving the resuscitation room or at 24 and 48 hours after surgery(P>0.05).The intraoperative fentanyl consumption was significantly lower in the observation group compared to the control group[(0.23±0.05)vs.(0.27±0.06),t=3.515,P=0.01].There were no significant differences in remifentanil consumption during surgery or in the frequency of rescue analgesia with flurbiprofen axetil within 48 hours post-surgery(P>0.05).Postoperative PSQI scores were significantly lower in the observation group compared to the control group[(5.40±2.57)vs.(6.63±3.23),t=2.313,P=0.022].Conclusion The use of noise-cancelling headphones for intraoperative noise isolation is a safe and effective strategy that enhances postop-erative recovery quality,alleviates postoperative pain,and decreases the overall consumption of analgesic drugs in patients undergoing endoscopic submucosal dissection of esophageal and gastric lesions under general anesthesia.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of peripheral retinal defocus distribution in adult myopia and its relationship with refractive error.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.A total of 270 myopic patients aged 18 to 46 years were enrolled at Tianjin Eye Hospital from January to March 2024.Data from the right eye were included in the analysis.Spherical power and cylindrical power were obtained using an autorefractor and the spherical equivalent (SE) was calculated.Corneal curvature parameters including flap keratometry (K1), steep keratometry (K2), and average keratometry (Km) were measured using the Pentacam anterior segment imaging analyzer.Central corneal thickness (CCT) and axial length (AL) were measured using the IOLMaster optical biometer.Peripheral defocus within a 53° area centered on the fovea was assessed using multispectral refractive topography.Based on the peripheral defocus data, the distribution patterns were classified into four types: hemilateral upturn type, saddle type, crater type, and relatively flat type.Characteristics of different tpes and their correlation with diopter were analyzed.This study followed the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Tianjin Eye Hospital (No.KY-2024020).All participants voluntarily participated and signed the informed consent form.Results:Of the different types of peripheral retinal defocus, 186 eyes (68.63%) were hemilateral upturn type, 45 eyes (16.61%) were crater type, 36 eyes (13.28%) were relatively flat type, and 3 eyes (1.11%) were saddle type.The crater type exhibited the lowest mean SE of (-6.18±1.50)D, while the relatively flat type showed the highest mean SE of (-3.88±0.87)D.There were significant differences in SE and AL among different peripheral defocus types ( F=15.469, 17.928, 3.431; all P<0.05).The hemilateral upturn type had significantly lower SE and spherical diopter than the relatively flat type, and crater type had significantly lower SE and spherical diopter compared to the hemilateral upturn type and relatively flat type significantly, and the hemilateral upturn type had longer AL than the relatively flat type (all P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in CCT, K1, K2, or Km among different peripheral defocus types ( F=0.861, 1.761, 2.603, 2.248; all P>0.05).Spherical power was weakly negatively correlated with superior, inferior, and temporal peripheral defocus ( r=-0.269, P<0.001; r=-0.176, P<0.01; r=-0.292, P<0.001).Age was positively correlated with superior and temporal peripheral defocus ( rs=0.213, P<0.001; rs=0.181, P=0.003), and negatively correlated with nasal peripheral defocus ( rs=-0.138, P=0.023). Conclusions:Among adult peripheral defocus patterns, the hemilateral upturn type is predominant.The crater type has the lowest mean spherical equivalent, while the relatively flat type has the highest.There are negative correlations between spherical power and the superior, inferior, and temporal peripheral defocus.
