Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)is an important component of ischemic stroke,specifically referring to the phenomenon where reperfusion exacerbates tissue damage after the restoration of blood flow.The underlying mechanisms involve factors such as free radical damage,calcium overload,and in-flammatory damage.Currently,there are no particularly effective treatments for this injury clinically.Phos-phatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/Akt)signaling is a classical cellular pathway that regulates downstream substrates through Akt phosphorylation to regulate cell growth,differentiation,and apoptosis.Studies have shown that PI3K/Akt is involved in regulating multiple forms of programmed cell death inclu-ding apoptosis within the organism,and this pathway plays a role in antioxidant stress and anti-inflammatory responses during the process of combating CIRI.This review summarizes recent advances of PI3K/Akt path-way in CIRI regulation,this paper provides new ideas and reference for basic and clinical research.

Objective To investigate the early dynamic changes of biomarkers associated with capillary leak syndrome(CLS)in patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)and their correlation with multiple organ failure(MOF).Methods A total of 171 SAP patients admitted to the West China Centre of Excellence for Pancreatitis,West China Hospital,Sichuan University between September 1,2019 and December 31,2020 were enrolled for this study.The patients were divided into MOF and non-MOF groups based on the occurrence of MOF in the first 5 days of hospitalization,and were further divided into subgroups based on the presence of moderate-to-severe intra-abdominal hypertension(IAH).We performed dynamic monitoring of the blood biomarkers(hematocrit[HCT].blood urea nitrogen[BUN].and creatinine[Cr]),plasma proteins(albumin[Alb].total protein[TP].and non-albumin plasma proteins[NAPP]),and intra-abdominal pressure.Trends in these indicators across groups were analyzed comprehensively.Results No significant differences in baseline data between the two groups were observed.The baseline data of the 2 groups were comparable.The MOF group had significantly higher rates of persistent systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS)lasting 48 hours(91.3％vs.71.8％),ICU admission(70.4％vs.17.6％),and length-of-stay([32±17.7]days vs.[19.0±12.2]days)compared to those of the non-MOF group(P＜0.05).The incidences of respiratory,circulatory,and renal failures were higher in the MOF group than those in the non-MOF group,showing significant differences in circulatory failure(69％vs.3.5％)and renal failure(65.5％vs.3.5％)(P＜0.05).In the first 5 days of hospitalization,the MOF group showed significantly elevated BUN and Cr levels,while Alb and TP levels dropped rapidly upon admission and then gradually recovered.The NAPP level of the MOF group continued to decrease after admission,and on the third day after admission,the NAPP level was lower than that of the Non-MOF group,showing statistically significant difference(P＜0.001).The Alb/NAPP ratio of the MOF group decreased significantly on day 1 and then rapidly increased,showing significant differences between the groups on days 3 and 4(P=0.001).Subgroup analysis of MOF patients with moderate-to-severe IAH revealed similar trends in the dynamic changes and the overall changes in the indicators,and the difference was even more pronounced.The mixed linear model showed that the average levels of HCT,BUN,Alb/NAPP,and Alb/TP were higher and increased over time in the MOF combined with IAP subgroup(P＜0.001).Conclusion The CLS model of SAP patients is validated,confirming that CLS is a key factor in the progression from SIRS to MOF.The loss of NAPP is an early and important indicator of CLS persistence and progression to MOF.Additionally,moderate-to-severe IAH accelerates the deterioration of MOF.These findings provide valuable insights into the potential mechanisms of MOF and warrant further validation through large-scale prospective studies.

BACKGROUND: 3D-printing is widely used in regenerative medicine and is expected to achieve vaginal morphological restoration and true functional reconstruction. Mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes (MSCs-Exos) were applyed in the regeneration of various tissues. The current study aimed to explore the effctive of MSCs-Exos in vaginal reconstruction. METHODS: In this work, hydrogel was designed using decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) and gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) and silk fibroin (SF). The biological scaffolds were constructed using desktop-stereolithography.The physicochemical properties of the hydrogels were evaluated; Some experiments have been conducted to evaluate exosomes’ effect of promotion vaginal reconstruction and to explore the mechanism in this process. RESULTS: It was observed that the sustained release property of exosomes in the hydrogel both in vitro and in vitro.The results revealed that 3D scaffold encapsulating exosomes expressed significant effects on the vascularization and musule regeneration of the regenerative vagina tissue. Also, MSCs-Exos strongly promoted vascularization in the vaginal reconstruction of rats, which may through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. CONCLUSION The use of exosome-hydrogel composites improved the epithelial regeneration of vaginal tissue, increased angiogenesis, and promoted smooth muscle tissue regeneration. 3D-printed, lumenal scaffold encapsulating exosomes might be used as a cell-free alternative treatment strategy for vaginal reconstruction.

Immunotherapy combined with effective therapeutics such as chemotherapy and photodynamic therapy have been shown to be a successful strategy to activate anti-tumor immune responses for improved anticancer treatment. However, developing multifunctional biodegradable, biocompatible, low-toxic but highly efficient, and clinically available transformed nano-immunostimulants remains a challenge and is in great demand. Herein, we report and design of a novel carrier-free photo-chemotherapeutic nano-prodrug COS-BA/Ce6 NPs by combining three multifunctional components-a self-assembled natural small molecule betulinic acid (BA), a water-soluble chitosan oligosaccharide (COS), and a low toxic photosensitizer chlorin e6 (Ce6)-to augment the antitumor efficacy of the immune adjuvant anti-PD-L1-mediated cancer immunotherapy. We show that the designed nanodrugs harbored a smart and distinctive "dormancy" characteristic in chemotherapeutic effect with desired lower cytotoxicity, and multiple favorable therapeutic features including improved ¹O₂ generation induced by the reduced energy gap of Ce6, pH-responsiveness, good biodegradability, and biocompatibility, ensuring a highly efficient, synergistic photochemotherapy. Moreover, when combined with anti-PD-L1 therapy, both nano-coassembly based chemotherapy and chemotherapy/photodynamic therapy (PDT) could effectively activate antitumor immunity when treating primary or distant tumors, opening up potentially attractive possibilities for clinical immunotherapy.

A patient aged 68 years old presented urinary frequency, urgency, and gross hematuria for 1 month, with initial PSA of 72.72 ng/ml and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)of 114 U/L. Prostate biopsy pathology showed small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of prostate. The patient was immediately administered 6 cycle of chemotherapy including etoposide and cisplatin combined with medical castration. The CDK4 gene was detected 1.99 times amplification by peripheral blood free DNA (cfDNA)gene analysis. The chemotherapy was followed by parbosini therapy. The number and density of bone metastases continued to decrease significantly by bone scan at 3 and 6 months after treatment, with a continuous decline of ALP and PSA. After 1 year of follow-up, pelvic MRI and bone systemic imaging indicated stable lesions, with PSA of 0.05 ng/ml and ALP of 59 U/L.

Objective:To investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of pulse oximetry among pediatric healthcare providers in China and analyze the factor influencing the KAP.Methods:A self-developed questionnaire was used for an online research on the KAP of 11 849 pediatric healthcare providers from 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities of China from March 11 to 14, 2022.The factors influencing the KAP of pulse oximetry among pediatric healthcare providers were examined by Logistic regression. Results:The scores of KAP, of pulse oximetry were 5.57±0.96, 11.24±1.25 and 11.19±4.54, respectively.The corresponding scoring rates were 69.61%, 74.95%, and 55.99%, respectively. Logistic regression results showed that the gender and working years of pediatric healthcare providers, the region they were located, and whether their medical institution was equipped with pulse oximeters were the main factors affecting the knowledge score (all P<0.05). Main factors influencing the attitude score of pediatric healthcare providers included their knowledge score, gender, educational background, working years, region, medical institution level, and whether the medical institution was equipped with pulse oximeters (all P<0.05). For the practice score, the main influencing factors were the knowledge score, gender, age, and whether the medi-cal institution was equipped with pulse oximeters (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Chinese pediatric healthcare providers need to further improve their knowledge about and attitudes towards pulse oximetry.Pulse oximeters are evidently under-used.It is urgent to formulate policies or guidelines, strengthen education and training, improve knowledge and attitudes, equip more institutions with pulse oximeters, and popularize their application in medical institutions.

ObjectiveTo understand the current situation and influencing factors of health service demands of new residents in Shanghai. MethodsFrom July to August 2020， a questionnaire survey was conducted in 1 358 new residents from 36 survey points in 7 districts of the city. The questionnaire included the basic medical insurance coverage in the inflow area， the current situation of medical demand and related influencing factors， and the demands for other health services. Results47.1%（562/1 194）of new residents did not choose to seek timely medical treatment when they were not feeling well. The main reason was that the working hours occupied the medical treatment time. Logistic regression analysis showed that the main factors affecting the medical needs in new residents were the average daily working hours， living area and type of residence， health status， physical examination and physical exercise， and the type of basic medical insurance. The demands of new residents for "health consultation of common diseases and frequently occurring diseases"， "health behavior intervention （such as smoking cessation and alcohol restriction）"， "medical guidance and publicity"， "accidental injury prevention （traffic， work， falling， etc.）" and "maintenance of legitimate rights and interests of health" were 57.1%（682/1 194）、41.3%（493/1 194）、34.9%（417/1 194）、32.2%（385/1 194） and 31.9%（381/1 194）， respectively. ConclusionNew residents demands for medical services cannot be met. We should actively improve the working and living conditions of new residents， improve the construction of new residents' health service system， and improve the utilization level of health services.

Objective To investigate the fertility history and demand for reproductive health services of new residents in Shanghai. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 358 new residents in 36 survey sites in 7 districts of Shanghai from July to September 2020. The content includes fertility history， induced abortion history， demand for reproductive health-related services， awareness rate of the Shanghai Family Planning Association and service access rate， etc. Results Among the new residents themselves and their spouses/sexual partners， 31.3% （374/1 194） had been pregnant once and 33.6% （401/1 194） had been pregnant twice； 46.3% （533/1 194）had one child and 29.7% （355/1 194）had two children. The difference of number of births among new residents with different residence time， those who did or did not possess permanent residency or residence permits， and those from different sources （urban or rural） was statistically significant （ χ ²=158.664， 50.263， 16.011， 114.419， all P <0.001）. Among the new residents themselves and their spouses / sexual partners， the proportion of induced abortion of more than once was 36.1%. The difference of the number of abortions of new residents with or without permanent residency was statistically significant （ χ ²=19.389， P <0.001）. The awareness rate of new residents of the harm of induced abortion to health was 92.1% （1 100/1 194）； There were significant differences in the scientific knowledge of harm of induced abortion to health among new residents with different local residence time and those with or without a residence permit （ χ ²=36.590， 20.926， both P <0.001）. The awareness rate of the Family Planning Association was 82.6% （986/1 194）， and the service access rate was 51.3% （613/1 194）. Permanent residency and residence permits are the main factors that affect the service accessibility of the Shanghai Family Planning Association. 44.8% （535/1 194） of new residents hope to receive reproductive health services in their place of residence， and they are most concerned about knowledge on good prenatal and postnatal care. Conclusion We should further publicize the "three-child" fertility policy， advocate a friendly fertility culture， and provide new residents with people-centered and accurate reproductive health services adapted to their needs through multi-sectoral cooperation， so as to improve their reproductive health level.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Haplo-HSCT) combined with third-party umbilical cord blood (UCB) infusion in treatment of high-risk lymphoblastic malignancies. Methods The clinical data of 20 patients with high-risk lymphoblastic malignancies who received Haplo-HSCT from April 2012 to April 2015 in Shanghai General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, which were compared with the data from 15 patients who underwent matched unrelated donor HSCT (MUD-HSCT) or 14 matched sibling donor HSCT (MSD-HSCT) during the same period. The efficacy of Haplo-HSCT combined with UCB infusion in treatment of high-risk lymphoblastic malignancies was evaluated. The preparative regimen mainly consisted of teniposide, cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation (TBI). Graft versus host disease (GVHD) preparative regimen included cyclosporine and a short term of methotrexate. The patients who received Haplo-HSCT combined with UCB infusion and MUD-HSCT were treated with antithymocyte globulin (ATG). Results After the transplantation, one patient in MUD-HSCT group and one in MSD-HSCT group died within 21 days, and other patients were engrafted successfully. The median time of neutrophil engraftment was 13 days (10-18 d), 12 days (9-16 d) and 12 days (9-14 d) in Haplo-HSCT + UCB group, MUD-HSCT group and MSD-HSCT group, respectively; the median time of platelets engraftment was 11 days (9-18 d), 12 days (10-23 d) and 12 days (9-14 d), respectively. There were 10, 3, 3 cases of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳacute GVHD at day 100 in the three groups, respectively, and there were 6, 4, 3 cases of chronic GVHD in the three groups, respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 40.6%, 66.2% and 26.7%, respectively. The predicted 2-year overall survival rate was 37.9%, 42.9% and 55.4%, respectively. All these data had no significant difference (all P＞ 0.05). Conclusion The efficacy of Haplo-HSCT combined with UCB infusion is similar to that of MUD-HSCT or MSD-HSCT in treatment of high-risk lymphoblastic malignancies, which should be recommended to the patients with high-risk lymphoblastic malignancies and without matched donors.
