Objective:To investigate the neuroprotective effects of ginsenoside Rb1 in neonatal mice with Hypoxic Ischemia(HI)and analyze its potential molecular mechanisms.Methods:Seven-day-old C57BL/6 neonatal mice were randomly assigned to three groups:Sham group,hypoxic-ischemic(HI)model group,and HI model+ginsenoside Rb1 intervention group(HI+Rb1),with 10 mice per group.The modified Rice-Vannucci method was used to establish the HI model,and ginsenoside Rb1(20 mg/kg)was administered via intraperitoneal injection for 7 consecutive days post-surgery(once per day).Brain damage was assessed on days 7 and 14 post-surgery by evaluating cortical neurons and glial cell numbers,as well as the activation status of the ERK signaling pathway.Additionally,in utero electroporation(IUE)was used to overexpress the ERK signaling pathway in the cortical neurons,and the impact of ERK activation on glial cell development was observed.Further,IUE was used to overexpress ERK in the cortex of P0 neonatal mice,fol-lowed by the HI model on day 7 to analyze the effects of enhanced ERK signaling on oligodendrocyte development and myelin regeneration.Results:Compared to the HI group,the HI+Rb1 intervention group showed significant improve-ment in motor ability,reduction in brain injury area,less mature neuron loss,and increased newborn neurons.Addi-tionally,the number of oligodendrocytes in the cortex was increased,and the activation of the ERK signaling pathway was enhanced.In mice with overexpression of the ERK signaling pathway in the cortex,there was a significant increase in oligodendrocytes.In the HI model with ERK overexpression,an increased number of oligodendrocyte precursor cells were found around the brain injury area,consistent with the results of ginsenoside Rb1 intervention.Conclusion:Gin-senoside Rb1 exerts neuroprotective effects in neonatal mice with hypoxic-ischemic brain injury,potentially through the enhancement of ERK signaling,promoting oligodendrocyte proliferation and myelin regeneration.

Objective To analyze the clinical efficacy of valve surgeries for infective endocarditis and the affecting factors, and compare the early- and long-term postoperative outcomes of different surgery approaches. Methods The patients with infective endocarditis who underwent valve replacement/valvuloplasty in our hospital from 2010 to 2022 were retrospectively collected. The clinical data of the patients were analyzed. Results A total of 343 patients were enrolled, including 197 patients with mechanical valve replacement, 62 patients with bioprosthetic valve replacement, and 84 patients with valvuloplasty. There were 238 males and 105 females with an average age of (44.2±14.8) years. Single-valve endocarditis was present in 200 (58.3%) patients, and multivalve involvement was present in 143 (41.7%) patients. Sixty (17.5%) patients had suffered thrombosis before surgery, including cerebral embolisms in 32 patients. The mean follow-up time was (60.6±43.8) months. Early mortality within one month after the surgery occurred in 17 (5.0%) patients, while later mortality occurred in 19 (5.5%) patients. Eight (2.3%) patients underwent postoperative dialysis, 13 (3.8%) patients suffered postoperative stroke, 6 patients underwent reoperation, and 3 patients suffered recurrence of infective endocarditis. Smoking (P=0.002), preoperative embolisms (P=0.001), duration of surgery (P=0.001), and postoperative dialysis (P=0.001) were risk factors for early mortality, and left ventricular ejection fraction ≥60% (P=0.022) was protective factor for early mortality. New York Heart Association classification Ⅲ-Ⅳ (P=0.010) and ≥3 valve procedures (P=0.028) were risk factors for late mortality. The rate of composite endpoint events was significantly lower in the valvuloplasty group than that in the valve replacement group. Conclusion For patients with infective endocarditis, smoking and preoperative embolisms are associated with high postoperative mortality, multiple-valve surgery is associated with a poorer prognosis, and valvuloplasty has advantages over valve replacement and should be attempted in the surgical management of patients with infective endocarditis.

Point-of-care testing (POCT) provides key support for clinical decision-making through rapid detection. This article introduces the development background of POCT in the field of pre-hospital emergency, as well as the development status of POCT in Hangzhou City, and analyzes the problems of quality management. Pre-hospital emergency medical institutions in Hangzhou City have been equipped with POCT equipment, and the test items include blood glucose, cardiac troponin, etc. The implementation rates of internal quality control, comparison test, and proficiency testing were 58.2%, 50.3% and 42.6%, respectively. POCT quality management has problems such as unclear responsibility subjects, insufficient professional personnel, and a lack of standardization of the process. It is proposed to build a hierarchical collaborative management system, strengthen the double access mechanism of personnel and equipment, implement the whole process quality control, and build a digital management platform, so as to provide the reference for the high-quality development of POCT in pre-hospital medical emergency institutions.

Objective:To explore the anti-reflux effect of transverse fan-shaped groin formed (TFGF) when the residual stomach is large (the small curvature ≥10 cm).Methods:Twenty-four patients with residual curvature ≥10 cm after PG were treated with TFGF continuously from Nov 2020 to Dec 2023 in this study. The cohort included 20 patients with Siewert type Ⅱ adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction and 4 patients with achalasia of cardia. Reflux disease questionnaire score gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire score and gastroscopy Los Angeles score were used to evaluate the anti-reflux effect and postoperative nutritional parameters (hemoglobin, protein and body weight).Results:The reconstructive operation time of adenocarcinoma of the esophago-gastric junction and achalasia of cardia was (20.0±5.1) min and (18.3±4.7) min, respectively. reflux disease questionnaire, gastro-esophageal reflux disease questionnaire and gastroscopy indicated GERD in 3 patients and 8% in 2 patients at 24 months. At follow-up, one patient transitioned from grade B to grade C based on the Los Angeles score at 12 months; 24 months after surgery, one patient's gastroesophageal reflux symptoms resolved and the Los Angeles rating was downgraded from B to A. Nutritional indicators (hemoglobin, protein and body weight levels) all showed a downward trend at 6 months and an upward trend at 24 months.Conclusion:TFGF has the advantages of simple operation, and effective prevention of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux for patients with lesser residual curvature ≥10 cm after PG.
