Ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation is currently the only feasible method for preserving both fertility and ovarian endocrine function in prepubertal female patients. It is indicated for those requiring gonadotoxic therapies such as chemo-therapy, radiotherapy, or bone marrow transplantation for malignant diseases, as well as for non-malignant diseases, including immunologic, metabolic, and hematologic benign diseases requiring bone marrow transplantation, and other populations at high risk of premature ovarian insufficiency. The procedure involves laparoscopic retrieval of ovarian tissue, typically via unilateral oophorectomy in young patients, followed by slow-programmed cryopreservation. When the primary disease is cured and fertility or hormonal function restoration is desired, the tissue is thawed and transplanted, most commonly to an orthotopic site. For patients at high risk of ovarian malignancy involvement, pre-transplantation assessment of minimal residual disease in the ovarian cortex is performed using histo-pathology and molecular biology techniques. Globally, while ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation has led to over 300 live births, the majority result from tissue cryopreserved after puberty. Successful restoration of puberty and subsequent live births following transplantation of tissue frozen before puberty, although demonstrated in reported cases, remain less common. Therefore, this review systematically summarizes recent advances in the indications, current application status, timing and strategies of ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation, risk assessment of tumor cell reintroduction, and clinical outcomes in prepubertal patients. It also discusses the potential value and current challenges of combining this approach with invitro oocyte maturation techniques, ainming to provide practical references for clinical practice.

Sigma-1 receptor (σ ₁R) has become a focus point of drug discovery for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. A series of novel 1-phenylethan-1-one O-(2-aminoethyl) oxime derivatives were synthesized. In vitro biological evaluation led to the identification of 1a, 14a, 15d and 16d as the most high-affinity (K _i < 4 nmol/L) and selective σ ₁R agonists. Among these, 15d, the most metabolically stable derivative exhibited high selectivity for σ ₁R in relation to σ ₂R and 52 other human targets. In addition to low CYP450 inhibition and induction, 15d also exhibited high brain permeability and excellent oral bioavailability. Importantly, 15d demonstrated effective antipsychotic potency, particularly for alleviating negative symptoms and improving cognitive impairment in experimental animal models, both of which are major challenges for schizophrenia treatment. Moreover, 15d produced no significant extrapyramidal symptoms, exhibiting superior pharmacological profiles in relation to current antipsychotic drugs. Mechanistically, 15d inhibited GSK3β and enhanced prefrontal BDNF expression and excitatory synaptic transmission in pyramidal neurons. Collectively, these in vivo proof-of-concept findings provide substantial experimental evidence to demonstrate that modulating σ ₁R represents a potential new therapeutic approach for schizophrenia. The novel chemical entity along with its favorable drug-like and pharmacological profile of 15d renders it a promising candidate for treating schizophrenia.

Radiation induced lung injury (RILI) is a common complication after radiation therapy of breast tumors and bone marrow transplantation pretreatment, and it is a critical limiting factor of radiotherapy doses in patients. Once RILI progresses to the radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis stage, it seriously reduces the patient’s quality of life, while causing the patient’s respiratory failure and eventually leading to death. Ionizing radiation (IR) can induce cell injuries, including apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, senescence, pyroptosis and ferroptosis, and these injuries can play an important role in the occurrence and development of radioactive lung injury. Starting from discussion of the occurrence of different forms of injury in different cells after IR stimulation, this review summarizes the pathogenesis of RILI and its clinical prevention and treatment.

Objective:To study the distribution and antibiotics resistance of the main pathogens of neonatal purulent meningitis in different regions of China.Methods:A retrospective descriptive clinical epidemiological study was conducted in children with neonatal purulent meningitis which admitted to 18 tertiary hospitals in different regions of China between January 2015 to December 2019. The test results of blood and cerebrospinal fluid, and drug sensitivity test results of the main pathogens were collected. The distributions of pathogenic bacteria in children with neonatal purulent meningitis in preterm and term infants, early and late onset infants, in Zhejiang Province and other regions outside Zhejiang Province, and in Wenzhou region and other regions of Zhejiang Province were analyzed. The chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 210 neonatal purulent meningitis cases were collected. The common pathogens were Escherichia coli ( E. coli)(41.4%(87/210)) and Streptococcus agalactiae ( S. agalactiae)(27.1%(57/210)). The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in preterm infants (77.6%(45/58)) with neonatal purulent meningitis was higher than that in term infants (47.4%(72/152)), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=15.54, P=0.001). There were no significant differences in the constituent ratios of E. coli (36.5%(31/85) vs 44.8%(56/125)) and S. agalactiae (24.7%(21/85) vs 28.8%(36/125)) between early onset and late onset cases (both P>0.05). The most common pathogen was E. coli in different regions, with 46.7%(64/137) in Zhejiang Province and 31.5%(23/73) in other regions outside Zhejiang Province. In Zhejiang Province, S. agalactiae was detected in 49 out of 137 cases (35.8%), which was significantly higher than other regions outside Zhejiang Province (11.0%(8/73)). The proportions of Klebsiella pneumoniae, and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus in other regions outside Zhejiang Province (17.8%(13/73) and 16.4%(12/73)) were both higher than those in Zhejiang Province (2.9%(4/137) and 5.1%(7/137)). The differences were all statistically significant ( χ2=14.82, 12.26 and 7.43, respectively, all P<0.05). The proportion of Gram-positive bacteria in Wenzhou City (60.8%(31/51)) was higher than that in other regions in Zhejiang Province (38.4%(33/86)), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.46, P=0.011). E. coli was sensitive to meropenem (0/45), and 74.4%(32/43) of them were resistant to ampicillin. E. coli had different degrees of resistance to other common cephalosporins, among which, cefotaxime had the highest resistance rate of 41.8%(23/55), followed by ceftriaxone (32.4%(23/71)). S. agalactiae was sensitive to penicillin, vancomycin and linezolid. Conclusions:The composition ratios of pathogenic bacteria of neonatal purulent meningitis are different in different regions of China. The most common pathogen is E. coli, which is sensitive to meropenem, while it has different degrees of resistance to other common cephalosporins, especially to cefotaxime.

Objective:Investigate the relationship between dietary patterns and sarcopenia in a Chinese elderly population.Methods:Participants in this cross-sectional study were recruited from the Tianjin Chronic Low-grade Systemic Inflammation and Health Cohort Study. The study population comprised 2 423 participants, with mean age of (67.6±5.2) years. Sarcopenia was defined based on the guidelines of the Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia. Three dietary patterns were derived by factor analysis: fruit and sweet pattern, traditional oriental pattern, and animal food pattern. The association between quartile categories of dietary pattern scores and the presence of sarcopenia was analyzed using multiple logistic regression models. Odds ratios ( OR) and 95% confidence interval ( CI) were calculated. Results:The prevalence of sarcopenia was 16.1%. After adjusting for confounding factors, compared with the lowest quartile, the adjusted OR ( 95%CI) of sarcopenia for the highest quintile of Fruit and sweet pattern score, Traditional oriental pattern score and Animal food pattern score were 1.06 (0.74, 1.50), 0.54 (0.34, 0.86), and 0.50 (0.33, 0.74), ( P for trend were 0.87,<0.01, and<0.001), respectively. Conclusions:The current study found that the traditional oriental pattern and animal food pattern has a protective relation for sarcopenia in elderly adults, which suggests its potential to attenuate or prevent the progression of sarcopenia.

In recent years,with the rapid development of medical research,cancer diagnosis and treatment technology have significantly improved young cancer patient's survival rate.Anticancer therapy such as chemotherapy,radiother-apy,or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can lead to premature ovarian insufficiency.The endocrine and reproductive function of the ovary is critical to women's physical and mental health.Ovarian tissue cryopreser-vation and transplantation can protect not only female fertility but also preserve ovarian endocrine function.This paper interprets the guidelines for ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation issued by the Chinese Society of Gynecological Endocrinology affiliated to the International Society of Gynecological Endocrinology.The purpose of this guideline's interpretation is to promote more medical workers to understand the technology of ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation,which can provide patients with more choices of fertility protection methods and improve their quality of life.

Objective:To explore the progress and prospect of evaluation methods for infertility patients.Methods:From September 2017 to December 2020,199 cases of infertility patients who have accepted mini-hysteroscopy examination in the Department of Gynecological Endocrinology,Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Capital Medical University.The patients who had primary ovary insufficiency,tubal infertility were excluded;patients with hysteroscopy contradiction,such as acute or sub-acute vaginal tract inflammation,en-dometrium lesion or endometrium carcinoma,severe cardiovascular,liver or kidney insufficiency were excluded.40 patients were excluded and 15 patients lost follow up,144 patients were eventually included in the analysis.The patient's age,body mass index,infertility etiology,preoperative and postoperative stimulate ovulation cycle,pregnancy state and pregnancy time were recorded.The effect of mini-hysteroscopy on ovulation induction cycle was analyzed in pregnant patients.Results:The average age of 144 patients was 32.10±4.67 years old.96 (66.67％) patients were found to have intrauterine abnormalities,while 48 (33.33％) patients were found to have normal intrauterine cavity.48 cases of pregnancy,accounting for 33.33％;the median and interquartile ranges[M (Q1,Q3)]of ovulation induction cycles before and after surgery were respectively[3 (0,5)],[2 (1,3)],the difference was statistically significant(P ＜ 0.05).Among the 48 pregnant patients,32 of them had no structural lesions in hysteroscopy,the ovula-tion induction cycle of these patients before and after hysteroscopy were respectively[5 (0,9)],[1 (0,3)],the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion:Uterine cavity evaluation is important for the assessments of fertility.As an advanced diagnosis instrument,mini-hysteroscopy can not only timely detect the intrauterine abnormalities of patients,but also with great application value in shorten the ovulation cycle in infertility patients and increase the pregnancy rate.

Objective:To investigate the design of specialized protective cap for patients with alopecia after autologous hair transplantation and its application value in nursing care after autologous hair transplantation.Methods:The author designed a kind of specialized protective cap for patients with alopecia after autologous hair transplantation with elastic gauze, fiber, silica gel, and other materials. It was divided into two parts, the front piece was mainly used to protect the hair receiving site, and the back piece was mainly used for pressure hemostasis at the hair donor site. From February 2017 to January 2019, 81 patients with alopecia and had autologous hair transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University, who met the inclusion criteria, were enrolled in this prospective controlled study. According to the tail number of admission number of each patient, 43 patients with odd numbers were recruited in protective cap group (38 males and 5 females, aged 23 to 52 years) and 38 patients with even numbers were recruited in convention group (34 males and 4 females, aged 22 to 55 years). After hair transplantation surgery, patients in the two groups received routine postoperative education. Patients in the conventional group were treated with conventional dressing after surgery. On this basis, patients in protective cap group wore the specialized protective caps for at least 1 week continuously except for necessary dressing change, wound clean, and dressing remove. The follow-ups was performed by responsible doctors and nurses at clinic. The postoperative hemorrhage at the hair donor site on post surgery day (PSD) 3 and swelling of scalp at the surgical site on PSD 7, the folliculitis at the hair receiving site and survival condition of transplanted hair follicle at the receiving site, and satisfaction score within 3 months after surgery were observed and recorded. Data were statistically analyzed with two independent sample t test, chi-square test, and Fisher′s exact probability test. Results:(1) On PSD 3, one patient in protective cap group had hemorrhage at the hair donor site, which was significantly less than 8 patients in convention group ( P<0.05). (2) On PSD 7, 4 patients in protective cap group had swelling of scalp at the surgical site, which was significantly less than 11 patients in convention group ( χ2=5.160, P<0.05). (3) Within 3 months after surgery, 0 patient in protective cap group had folliculitis at the hair receiving site, which was less than 3 patients in convention group. (4) In 3 months after surgery, the survival number of hair follicle in each 100 transplanted hair follicles at the hair receiving site of patients in protective cap group was 94.9±2.8, which was significantly more than 91.1±4.7 in convention group ( t=4.354, P<0.01). (5) The patients′ satisfaction score in protective cap group was (14.2±2.6) points, which was significantly higher than (12.1±3.0) points in convention group ( t=3.338, P<0.01). Conclusions:After autologous hair transplantation, the specialized protective cap can reduce postoperative hemorrhage at the hair donor site, swelling of scalp at the surgical site, as well as improve the survival rate of transplanted hair follicles at the hair receiving site and score of patient satisfaction.

Objective:To explore the influence of standardized and comprehensive incubational measures on perioperative treatment of extensively burned patients who underwent escharectomy and skin grafting.Methods:From January 2017 to November 2018, 50 patients with extensive burn who underwent escharectomy and skin grafting in the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University and met the inclusion criteria of this study, were recruited in this retrospective cohort study. According to the incubational measures at that time, 20 patients (14 males and 6 females, aged (33.5±5.2) years) who received routine incubation during the perioperative period from January to October 2017 were set as routine incubation group, and 30 patients (23 males and 7 females, aged (35.8±1.4) years) who received standardized comprehensive incubational measures during the perioperative period from November 2017 to November 2018 were set as comprehensive incubation group. Their body temperature was controlled mainly in 4 stages: preoperative preparation and transfer from intensive care unit (ICU) to operating room, preoperative preparation in operating room, intraoperative operating room management, as well as postoperative transfer from operating room to ICU. The initial body temperature in operating room and intraoperative hypothermia duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative recovery time, postoperative chill, blister, and ulcer, and wound healing rate on post operation day (POD) 10 were recorded and calculated. Data were statistically analyzed with two independent samples t test and chi-square test. Results:(1) The initial body temperature in operating room of patients in comprehensive incubation group was (36.3±0.4) ℃, which was significantly higher than (35.6±0.4)℃ in routine incubation group, t=6.658, P<0.01; the intraoperative duration of hypothermia was (205±38) min, which was significantly shorter than (234±42) min in routine incubation group, t=2.564, P<0.05. (2) The intraoperative blood loss of patients in comprehensive incubation group was (323±114) mL, which was significantly less than (490±162) mL in routine incubation group, t=4.272, P<0.01; the postoperative recovery time was (36±8) min, which was significantly shorter than (49±17) min in routine incubation group, t=3.229, P<0.01. (3) The incidence of postoperative chill of patients in comprehensive incubation group was significantly lower than that in routine incubation group ( χ2=28.626, P<0.01). The incidences of postoperative blister and ulcer of patients between the 2 groups were close. (4) On POD 10, the wound healing rate of patients in comprehensive incubation group was (78.08±0.06)%, which was significantly higher than (71.03±0.08)% in routine incubation group, t=3.694, P<0.01. Conclusions:The standardized and comprehensive incubational measures can effectively improve the initial body temperature of patients entering the operating room, shorten the intraoperative duration of hypothermia, reduce the amount of blood loss and postoperative complications, as well as shorten the postoperative recovery time, thus improve the wound healing rate.

Objective: To describe the status of cognition about colorectal cancer and the screening and its relevant factors among first degree relatives of hereditary colorectal cancer patients in Guangzhou. Methods: Totally 274 subjects were investigated by a self-designed demographic questionnaire and the Chinese version of Cognitive Questionnaire for Colorectal Cancer and were analyzed by chisquare test, rank sum test and logistic regressive. Results: 60.2% (165/274) cases had a high level of cognition about colorectal cancer, 23.7% (65/274) had middle level of cognition about colorectal cancer and 16.0% (44/274) had a low level of cognition about colorectal cancer. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, sex, degree of education, marital status, family income, medical insurance and the number of cancer patients in his family were related factors (P<0.05). People who were young, female, highly educated, high family income, single, public/urban health insurance, commercial insurance and with more than 4 relatives suffering from colorectal cancer have higher cognitive level. Conclusions The level of cognition about colorectal cancer among first degree relatives of hereditary colorectal cancer patients was a little high. Medical staff should pay attention to relevant factors of health belief in subjects and develop targeted intervention to improve the level of cognition among these subjects and to promote their screening behavior.
