Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intrasaccular flow disruptor in wide-necked intracranial aneurysms.Methods:One hundred and seventeen patients with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms treated with intrasaccular flow disruptor were collected from Department of Neurointervention (First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University), Department of Neurosurgery (Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University), Department of Cerebrovascular Surgery, Neurosurgery Center (Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University), and Department of Neurosurgery (First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University) from August 2022 to March 2024. Raymond-Roy Occlusion Classification (RROC) was employed to evaluate aneurysm embolization immediately after procedure; cranial CT or MRI within 48 hours of embolization were performed to identify any new intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, or new symptomatic cerebral infarction related to the intracranial aneurysms. Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to assess the neurological function at discharge. Imaging follow-up and outpatient follow-up were performed at 6 months after embolization to evaluate the aneurysm occlusion degree and complications.Results:A total of 117 intrasaccular flow disruptors were implanted in 117 patients, with a technical success rate of 100%; 115 patients (98.3%) enjoyed successful one-time release of their disruptors, and 2 patients (1.7%) required retrieval and redirection of the disruptors before second successful attempt. Flow disruptor plus stent was performed in 13 patients (11.1%). Immediately after procedure, RROC grading I was noted in 3 patients, grading II in 51 patients and grading III in 63 patients. Cranial CT or MRI within 48 hours of embolization indicated no new intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage, or symptomatic cerebral infarction related to the intracranial aneurysms. All patients had mRS score of 0 at discharge. Eighty-three patients completed a 6-month follow-up (RROC grading I in 41 patients, grading II in 33 patients and grading III in 9 patients), without ischemic or hemorrhagic adverse events.Conclusion:The results of this study preliminarily suggest that intrasaccular flow disruptor is effective and safe in wide-necked intracranial aneurysms.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Neuroform Atlas stent-assisted coil embolization in patients with middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed; the clinical data of 46 patients with middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms accepted Neuroform Atlas stent-assisted coil embolization in First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University and First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2022 to March 2024 were collected. There were 28 ruptured aneurysms (60.87%) and 18 unruptured aneurysms (39.13%). Follow-up was performed for more than 3 months; Raymond-Roy grading was used to evaluate the aneurysm embolization immediately after embolization and during follow-up; perioperative hemorrhagic or ischemic complications were recorded; modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognosis of the patients at discharge and during follow-up (mRS score≤2: good prognosis, and mRS score>2: poor prognosis).Results:Coil embolization was successful in all 46 patients. DSA immediately after embolization showed that 41 patients (89.13%) had completely occluded aneurysms (Raymond-Roy grading I), 2 patients (4.35%) had residual aneurysm neck (Raymond-Roy grading Ⅱ) and 3 patients (6.52%) had partially occluded aneurysms (Raymond-Roy grading Ⅲ). Perioperative complications occurred in 5 patients, including 2 with postoperative cerebral infarction, 1 with hydrocephalus, 1 with postoperative pneumonia leading to respiratory failure, and 1 with stent thrombosis during embolization. Both at discharge and 3 months after embolization, 43 patients (93.48%) had good prognosis and 3 patients (6.52%) had poor prognosis. No obvious ischemic complications (such as stent restenosis) or hemorrhagic complications (such as re-rupture of the aneurysms) were found in all patients. Thirty patients (65.22%) had imaging follow-up for 6-12 months: 26 (86.67%) had Raymond-Roy grading I, 3 (10.00%) had Raymond-Roy grading II, and 1 (3.33%) had Raymond-Roy grading III.Conclusion:Neuroform Atlas stent-assisted coil embolization has good short-term efficacy and high safety in middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms, but long-term follow-up observation is still needed to verify its efficacy.

Neuroinflammation secondary to traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a key factor affecting the prognosis and neural repair of patients. In recent years, nanomedicine and nano delivery system (NDDS) has shown great potential in neuroinflammation after TBI due to their controlled release, good biocompatibility, and ability to cross the blood-brain barrier. This article reviews the recent advance in mechanism of neuroinflammation after TBI and regulatory role of various NDDS in neuroinflammation after TBI, with the aim of providing references for treatment of neuroinflammation after TBI.

Objective Maintain a sable differential pressure inside the Underwater Positive Pressure Protective Suit(UPPPS)to ensure normal breathing and safe underwater operations for the diver.Methods Utilize a pressure regulator as the UPPPS's pressure control valve to automatically maintain the differential pressure inside the suit.Results By establishing a physical model,the relationship between the steady-state differential pressure with the ventilation flow rate and the ambient pressure was obtained.(1)The ventilation flow rate is positively correlated with the steady-state differential pressure,the higher the ventilation flow rate,the greater the steady-state differential pressure.(2)At the same ventilation flow rate,the larger the ambient pressure is,the smaller the steady-state differential pressure is.Underwater unmanned and manned experiments using the UWT suit were conducted.The expermental results are in agreement with the theoretical analysis.Conclusion The performance of pressure regulator has been verified by the underwater experiments,it effectively stabilizes the differential pressure within the UPPPS.

Triple-negative breast cancer is therapeutically challenging due to the low expression of tumor markers and 'cold' tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment. Here, we present a dual-targeting peptide-drug conjugate (PDC) for tumor inhibition. Our PDC efficiently and selectively delivers cytotoxic Monomethyl Auristatin E (MMAE) into tumor cells via C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and folate receptor 1 (FOLR1) for synergistic inhibition of growth and metastasis. Our results show that the dual-targeting PDC has potent antitumor activity in cultured human cells and several murine transplanted tumor models without apparent toxicity. The combination of dual-targeting PDC and radiotherapy modulates the tumor immunosuppressive microenvironment by increasing CD8+ T cell infiltration and attenuating the proportion of myeloid-derived suppressor and regulatory T cells. Therefore, our dual-targeting PDC represents a promising new strategy for cancer therapy that rebalances the immune system and promotes tumor regression.

Objective:To explore the efferent projections of glutamatergic neurons in the basal forebrain(BF)and the function of its projections to lateral habenula(LHb)under isoflurane anesthesia.Methods:Channelrhodopsin-as-sisted circuit mapping(CRACM)was used to explore the efferent projections of BF glutamatergic neurons in cre driver mice lines.On this basis,we optogenetically activated the BF glutamatergic projections to LHb to explore its function in wake-anesthesia regulation of isoflurane anesthesia.Results:The glutamatergic projections of BF mainly project to LHb,optogenetic activation of BF glutamatergic projections to LHb could significantly prolonged the time of loss of righ-ting reflex(LORR)and shortened the time of recovery of righting reflex(RORR).Optical stimulation of this projection reduced the burst suppression ratio(BSR)under 1.0%isoflurane anesthesia.When the mice were anesthetized by 0.8%isoflurane,a significant decrease of δ power percentage was observed,while the power percentage of β bands and γ bands increased.Conclusion:The glutamatergic neurons of BF mainly project to LHb,activation of this projection can not only prolong the induction time but also shorten the emergence time.Furthermore,this projection also exerts a pro-arousal effect under the maintenance phase of isoflurane anesthesia.
