Objective This paper focuses on the manufacturing technique of bubble microneedles and temperature-sensitive materials in order to design and prepare a temperature-sensitive reservoir microneedle.The objective is to evaluate the feasibility of addressing the issue of low drug load in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)external preparations using microneedles.Methods The study involved the utilization of sinomenine hydrochloride as the model drug.The drug,along with the temperature-sensitive material N-isopropylacrylamide,was filled into the cavity of the bubble microneedle made from chitosan.Through positioning and curing processes,a temperature-sensitive sinomenine hydrochloride reservoir microneedle was prepared.The microneedle consisted of a needle body,a positioning layer,a basal layer,and a drug reservoir.The drug load,size,length,mechanical properties,and puncture ability of the prepared reservoir microneedle were measured to characterize and evaluate its drug load and mechanical properties.In addition,the in vitro release characteristics of the microneedles were determined using Franz diffusion cells,while the in vivo release characteristics were evaluated using the percutaneous microdialysis technique.Results The research result demonstrated that the prepared temperature-sensitive reservoir microneedle had a drug load of approximately 5.76 mg/cm2.The exposed needle tip had a conical shape with a height of around 650 μm,exhibiting good mechanical strength and skin puncture ability.The in vitro release tests showed that the microneedle could simulate the temperature of the skin and release the drug in a controlled and gradual manner,displaying characteristics of diffusion and dissolution of the skeleton.Furthermore,compared to conventional external preparations,the reservoir microneedles significantly enhanced transdermal permeation of the drug in the in vivo percutaneous studies.Conclusion The study demonstrated that reservoir-type microneedles prepared using temperature-sensitive materials and bubble microneedle preparation techniques could significantly increase the drug load of microneedles,providing the advantage of microinvasion.

Objective To explore the relationship between anxiety sensitivity and psychological stress before parachuting training among parachuting trainees and the mediating role of resilience between them.Methods Anxiety sensitivity index scale(version 3),resilience scale,psychological stress self-evaluation test and self-compiled general information questionnaire were employed for 258 parachuting trainees before training.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations among anxiety sensitivity,resilience and psychological stress.A multiple linear regression analysis was conducted with anxiety sensitivity and resilience as independent variables and psychological stress as dependent variable to explore the relationships among these 3 factors.The mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between anxiety sensitivity and psychological stress was examined using the Hayes Process macro program and bias corrected non-parametric percentile Bootstrap method.Results Before parachuting training,the prevalence of psychological stress among parachuting trainees was 5.0%(13/258).The correlations between anxiety sensitivity,resilience and psychological stress were significant(all P＜0.01).Anxiety sensitivity was positively associated with psychological stress among parachuting trainees(b=0.412,t=7.062,P＜0.01),while resilience was negatively associated with psychological stress(b=-0.187,t=-3.722,P＜0.01).Anxiety sensitivity and resilience were found to explain 31.4%of the total variance.Resilience partially mediated the effect of anxiety sensitivity on psychological stress,accounting for 20.48%of the total effect.Conclusion Parachuting trainees are at a relatively low stress level,with good psychological adaptation.Resilience plays a partial mediating role in the association between anxiety sensitivity and psychological stress.More attention should be paid to parachuting trainees with high anxiety sensitivity,enhancing their resilience,and reducing psychological stress before parachuting training.

Objective To analyze the effects of GATA binding protein 3(GATA3)mediated mini RNA-21(miR-21)/phosphatase and tensin homologue(PTEN)axis missing from human chromosome Chromosome 10 on the proliferation and invasion of endometrial cancer cells.Methods HEC-1-A cells were transfected and divided into control group,GATA3 empty plasmid group,GATA3 overexpression plasmid group,GATA3 siRNA negative control group,and GATA3 siRNA group.Detect the expression levels of GATA3,miR-21,PTEN,proliferation,apoptosis rate,migration,and invasion in each group of cells.Results Compared with the hEEC group,the expression levels of GATA3 and miR-21 in cells of the HEC-1-A group,HEC-1-B group,and Ishikawa group increased,while the expression levels of PTEN decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the GATA3 empty plasmid group,the GATA3 overexpression plasmid group showed an increase in GATA3,miR-21 mRNA expression,pro-liferation rate,migration distance,number of invading cells,and Vimentin levels,while the PTEN mRNA expression,apoptosis rate,Caspase-9,Bax,and E-cadherin levels decreased(P<0.05);Compared with the GATA3 siRNA negative control group,the GATA3,miR-21 mRNA expression,proliferation rate,migration distance,number of invading cells,and Vimentin level decreased,while the PTEN mRNA expression,apoptosis rate,Caspase-9,Bax,and E-cadherin levels increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Downregulation of GATA3 expression can regulate the miR-21/PTEN axis,slow down the proliferation of HEC-1-A cells,and promote apoptosis of HEC-1-A cells.

Objective To explore the nutritional efficacy of compound protein powder formulations from different sources. Methods Three groups of compound protein powder formulations were obtained through scientific blending using soy protein, whey protein and yeast protein as raw materials. The effects of the compound protein powders on nitrogen metabolism, serum biochemical indicators, and pathological changes of liver tissue and epididymal fat in rats were evaluated. Results Compared with the control (casein), the net protein utilization, biological evaluation, and protein efficacy ratio of the compound protein powders in rats were significantly improved, and the changes in these indicators in the formula with the highest whey protein content were most significant among all three formulas. The compound protein powders effectively increased the levels of albumin and globulin, while decreased the content of total cholesterol, indicating beneficial effects on improving immunity and controlling lipid metabolism, with the formula group 2 being the most effective among all three groups. The pathological examination showed that the three groups of protein powder did not have adverse effects on liver tissue and epididymal fat. Conclusion The present study demonstrates that the compound protein powder formulation has nutritional value, which suggests a potential of the application of the compound protein powder formulation in the elderly, and people with special nutritional needs, such as sports people.

Objective: This study’s objective is to assess the efficacy and safety of Pulsed Magnetic Therapy System (PMTS) in improving insomnia disorder. Methods: Participants with insomnia disorder were randomly assigned to receive either PMTS or sham treatment for four weeks (n= 153; PMTS: 76, sham: 77). Primary outcomes are the Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) scores at week 0 (baseline), 1, 2, 3, 4 (treatment), and 5 (follow-up). Secondary outcomes are the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index at baseline and week 4, and weekly sleep diary-derived values for sleep latency, sleep efficiency, real sleep time, waking after sleep onset, and sleep duration. Results: The ISI scores of the PMTS group and the sham group were 7.13±0.50, 11.07±0.51 at week 4, respectively. There was a significant group×time interaction for ISI (F3.214, 485.271=24.25, p<0.001, ηp 2=0.138). Only the PMTS group experienced continuous improvement throughout the study; in contrast, the sham group only experienced a modest improvement after the first week of therapy. At the end of the treatment and one week after it, the response of the PMTS group were 69.7% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 58.6%–79.0%), 75.0% (95% CI: 64.1%–83.4%), respectively, which were higher than the response of the sham group (p<0.001). For each of the secondary outcomes, similar group×time interactions were discovered. The effects of the treatment persisted for at least a week. Conclusion PMTS is safe and effective in improving insomnia disorders.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of ovarian torsion in in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) cycles and identify factors that may affect the outcome. Methods:Patients who underwent surgery for ovarian torsion during IVF treatment in the Center of Reproductive Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Peking University Third Hospital from January 2010 to December 2019 were included. The general information, IVF cycle characteristics, and intraoperative findings of patients were retrospectively analyzed. The diagnosis and treatment process were summarized. The pregnancy outcomes were followed up, and the possible influencing factors were analyzed.Results:There were 141 539 cycles of controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) and 75 585 cycles of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) during the study period. A total of 50 patients were diagnosed with ovarian torsion and treated surgically, 90.0% of them occurred in the COS cycles (39 cases in fresh embryo transfer cycles and 6 cases in embryo freezing cycles), and 10.0% (5/50) occurred in the FET cycles (endometrial preparation in natural cycles or ovulation induction cycles). About 86.0% (43/50) of the patients occurred during pregnancy assisted with IVF-ET and 81.4% (35/43) occurred in the first trimester of pregnancy. All patients except one had abdominal pain as the first symptom, only 34.0% (17/50) of the patients had definite inducements, and all patients had signs of tenderness in the lower abdomen and adnexal area. Preoperative ultrasound examination showed that the average diameter of the torsional ovaries was (78.17±15.98) mm, compared with (48.69±15.96) mm in the controls, with an average difference of (30.13±19.69) mm (-3.5-80.0 mm). About 76.2% (32/42) of the torsional ovaries showed blood flow signals by color doppler ultrasound. All patients underwent surgery, and the coincidence rate between the preoperative diagnosis and the surgical diagnosis was 96%. Totally 22 torsional ovaries (44%) were found to be purplish-black, of which 16 cases underwent adnexectomy by laparoscopy or laparotomy. Totally 34 cases (68%) underwent ovarian detorsion. The average torsional degree of ovaries in the adnexectomy group was higher than that in the ovarian detorsion group [(727.50±206.54)° vs. (477.35±262.92)°, P=0.002]. There were no statistical differences between the two groups in the duration from onset to operation and the ratio of ovarian blood signal deficiency (all P>0.05). Among 44 patients with the embryo transfer, 84.1% (37/44) of patients obtained live birth, 1 case had implantation failure, and 6 cases had a spontaneous abortion. Patients with an adverse pregnancy outcome and patients with a live birth did not have significantly different ovarian torsion time, surgical methods, the duration from onset to operation, and other factors. Conclusion:Ovarian torsion in patients with IVF-ET treatment mostly occurs in the first trimester of pregnancy after fresh embryo transfer. Abdominal pain accompanied by differential enlargement of bilateral ovaries may suggest the possibility of ovarian torsion. We are unable to rule out ovarian torsion by observation of ovarian blood flow with color Doppler ultrasound. Active surgery was helpful to make a clear diagnosis and protect the fertility of patients. Patients with long torsional durations, purplish-black ovaries, or ovarian blood deficiency still have the opportunity to retain the torsional ovary. The pregnancy outcome of patients with ovarian torsion was satisfactory after surgical treatment.
