OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of dimethyl fumarate (DMF) in the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS Retrieved from CBM, Web of Science, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about DMF (trial group) versus other drugs or placebo (control group) were collected. After data screening and extraction, quality evaluation, meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of 6 literature were included, involving 638 patients. Results of meta-analysis showed that the proportion of patients with lesion changes after treatment in the trial group was lower than control group [MD=-0.65, 95%CI(-1.27, -0.02), P=0.04]; there was no statistical significance in recurrence rate [RR=1.06, 95%CI(0.52,2.17), P=0.88], the proportion of patients with new lesions after treatment [RR=1.05, 95%CI(0.62,1.80), P=0.85], expanded disability status scale after treatment [MD=0.02,95%CI (-0.18, 0.23), P=0.82], the incidence of adverse events [RR=1.33, 95%CI(0.97, 1.84), P=0.08] or severe adverse events [RR=0.95,95%CI(0.48,1.90),P=0.89] between 2 groups. Results of sensitivity analysis showed the study obtained unstable recurrence rate and the incidence of adverse events, while other results were robust. CONCLUSIONS DMF can control the lesion progression in MS patients to some extent and doesn’t increase the incidence of adverse events and serious adverse events, but there is no significant advantage in reducing the recurrence rate and controlling the disability progression.

ObjectiveTo explore the related factors of troublemaking behaviors among patients with mental disorders induced by amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS), and to provide references for the formulation of relevant intervention measures for ATS-induced mental disorders. MethodsA total of 105 patients who met the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Diseases, tenth edition (ICD-10) for ATS-induced mental disorders were included, and classified into troublemaking group and non-troublemaking group. The general demographic data and clinical data of the selected individuals were collected, and all patients were assessed using Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS). Then univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to screen the related factors of troublemaking behaviors. ResultsThe scores of SSRS, objective support dimension and social support utilization dimension were significantly lower in troublemaking group than those in non-troublemaking group, with statistical differences [(24.10±6.59) vs. (28.94±5.59), t=3.364, P=0.001; (5.50±1.96) vs. (8.20±2.13), t=5.183, P<0.01; (4.60±2.26) vs. (6.28±1.90), t=3.435, P=0.001]. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male (OR=6.061, P=0.014) was a risk factor, while high social support level (OR=0.873, P=0.018) was the protective factor for troublemaking behaviors among patients with ATS-induced mental disorders. ConclusionPatients with ATS-induced mental disorders of the males and with low social support level are at high risk of troublemaking behaviors.

Sepsis is an organ dysfunction that endangers a patient's life caused by an imbalanced infection response, and is a clinically critical illness. Despite a deep understanding of the pathogenesis of sepsis, there has been no significant improvement in sepsis mortality during clinical treatment at home and abroad. In recent years, the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of sepsis has become a new research point in the field of medical research. Autophagy may protect the body by removing pathogenic microorganisms, neutralizing microbial toxins, and regulating cytokine release in sepsis. Studies have shown that autophagy plays a role in heart and lung organ dysfunction and inflammatory immune response in sepsis. Studies have also shown that hydrogen sulphide (H 2S) can activate autophagy through multiple signaling pathways, such as adenylate-activated protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin (AMPK/mTOR), phosphoinositide 3 kinase/Akt/mTOR (PI3K/Akt/mTOR), liver kinase B1/STE20 related adapter protein/mouse protein 25 (LKB1/STRAD/MO25) and microRNA-30c (miR-30c), etc. signaling pathways. This article reviewed the effects of H 2S on autophagy-related genes Beclin-1 and microtubule-associated protein light 3 chain (LC3) on intestinal function of sepsis in order to explore the H 2S-mediated autophagy gene expression in pus. The protective role of autophagy gene for intestinal dysfunction provides a new strategy for the treatment of sepsis in the future.

Sepsis is one of the main causes of death in critically ill patients. The intestinal tract is not only the organ easily involved in sepsis, but also the initial organ in the progression of sepsis, so the improvement of intestinal barrier function is the key of the treatment of sepsis. In recent years, it has been found that autophagy is involved in the pathological process of sepsis, maintaining mitochondrial function by clearing damaged organelles, inhibiting inflammation, oxidative stress and apoptosis, regulating immunity, maintaining intestinal homeostasis, and improving the condition and prognosis of sepsis. It is an effective target for the treatment of sepsis. As a new type of medical gas signal molecule, hydrogen sulfide (H 2S) can regulate autophagy by regulating multiple signal pathways, which has become a new target in the treatment of sepsis. This article reviews the signal pathway regulation mechanism of H 2S regulating autophagy in septic intestinal dysfunction.
