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 systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis with tenecteplase (TNK) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) across different time windows.Methods:Randomized controlled trials investigating TNK in AIS were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang databases, with data collected up to May 2025. Experimental group received intravenous thrombolysis with 0.25 mg/kg TNK, either alone or in combination with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Control group received alteplase, placebo, standard medication (containing butylphthalide), MT, or above-mentioned drugs combined with MT. These patients were within 4.5 hours of onset (within-time window) or within 4.5-24 hours of onset (extended-time window). Efficacy indexes included functional outcome excellent rate (modified Rankin scale [mRS] score of 0-1 at 3 months after treatment), early neurological improvement rate (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale [NIHSS] score improvement≥4 or NIHSS score ranged 0-1 within 72 of treatment), and recanalization rate 24 h after treatment. Safety indexes comprised symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) rate within 48 h of treatment, and mortality rate and rate of serious adverse events (SAEs) within 90 d of treatment. Quality of the trials was assessed according to Cochrane handbook for systematic reviews of interventions (version 5.1). Meta-analysis was conducted using Stata software, with pooling data as risk difference ( RD). Results:Sixteen articles (11 were within-time window ones, and 5 were extended-time window ones), involving 9,430 AIS patients, were included. Quality grade of these articles is B-level. (1) In articles of within-time window: the experimental group had a significantly higher functional outcome excellent rate compared with the control group ( RD=0.031, 95% CI: 0.009-0.052, P=0.005); no significant difference was observed in early neurological improvement rate ( RD=0.016, 95% CI: -0.012-0.043, P=0.260), recanalization rate ( RD=0.040, 95% CI: 0.000-0.081, P=0.053), sICH rate ( RD=0.005, 95% CI: -0.002-0.012, P=0.198), mortality rate ( RD=0.000, 95% CI: -0.012-0.013, P=0.950), or SAE rate ( RD=0.003, 95% CI: -0.028-0.033, P=0.870) between the two groups. (2) In articles of extended-time window: the experimental group exhibited significantly higher functional outcome excellent rate ( RD=0.064, 95% CI: 0.016-0.113, P=0.009), early neurological improvement rate ( RD=0.101, 95% CI: 0.023-0.180, P=0.012), and recanalization rate ( RD=0.131, 95% CI: 0.059-0.203, P<0.001) compared with the control group; no significant difference was found in sICH rate ( RD=0.014, 95% CI: -0.003-0.032, P=0.097), mortality rate ( RD=0.006, 95% CI: -0.030-0.041, P=0.752), or SAE rate ( RD=0.030, 95% CI: -0.037-0.097, P=0.385) between the two groups. Conclusion:Intravenous thrombolysis with TNK is safe and effective in AIS patients at both within-time window and extended-time window.

Aim To explore the mechanism of Con-grong Shujing granule(CSGs)in the treatment of Par-kinson's disease(PD)by network pharmacology,mo-lecular docking and parallel reaction monitoring(PRM)technology.Methods The active components of CSGs and the target genes of Parkinson's disease were obtained through the database.The intersection targets of drugs and diseases were selected to construct the"drug-active ingredient-target"and protein interac-tion network.The intersection target genes were impor-ted into David database for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis,and the main components were docked with key targets.27 SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group(n=9),model group(n=9)and treat-ment group(n=9).On day 1,7 and 14 of treatment,PRM analysis was used to detect the changes in the specific peptides of key target proteins in the substantia nigra of rats.Results The main components of CSGs wereTanshialdehyde,Baicalein,Quercetin and Kaempferol.The most important targets for the treat-ment of PD were TP53,AKT1,EGFR,HSP90 AA1 and STAT3.KEGG analysis mainly enriched MAPK,PI3K-Akt and neurotrophic factor signaling pathway.The molecular docking between core components and core targets showed that the binding of drugs and targets had good activity.PRM analysis of key proteins found that the target peptide expression levels of ASK1,JNK1 and JNK3 were different among groups(P＜0.05).Con-clusion CSGs can alleviate ERS,inhibit apoptosis and play a neural protective role through the ASK1-JNK pathway.

AIM To investigate the improvement effect of Qinhuo Formula on obese mice induced by high-fat diet.METHODS Obese mice model was induced by feeding with high-fat diet.The mice successfully established were randomly divided into model group,orlistat group(15.6 mg/kg)and low and high dose groups of Qinhuo Formula(13.5 and 22.5 g/kg),and normal mice were taken as control group,with 10 mice in each group,and the drugs were continuously intervened for 8 weeks.After the drug administration,the body weight,abdominal circumference,fasting blood glucose and glucose tolerance were measured,and area under the curve(AUC)of oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT),Lee's index and fat index were calculated.The serum levels of TC,TG,LDL-C and HDL-C were detected by blood biochemical analyzer.Serum levels of TNF-α,IL-1 β and IL-6 were detected by ELISA.HE staining was used to observe the white fat of epididymis and the pathological changes of liver tissue.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB in liver tissue.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the body weight,abdominal circumference and Lee's index of mice in each dose group of Qinhuo Formula decreased(P＜0.01);OGTT-AUC decreased(P＜0.01);visceral fat index decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);the levels of serum TG,TC,IL-6 and IL-1 β decreased(P＜0.01);the diameter of epididymal adipocytes decreased,arranged tightly and regularly,the lipid droplet cavities in liver tissue decreased,and the morphology of hepatocytes recovered;the mRNA and protein expressions of TLR4,MyD88 and NF-κB decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Qinhuo Formula can effectively improve glucose-lipid metabolism and reduce inflammation in obese mice,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of programmed death-1(PD-1)on cell infiltration in muscle tissue and immune response types in mice infected with Trichinella spiralis.Methods C57BL/6J wild-type(WT)and PD-1 deficient(PD-1-/-)mice were infected with T.spiralis(400 muscle larvae per mouse),and samples were collected on day 35 after infection.The proportions of infiltrating inflammatory cells and fibroblasts around encapsulated larvae were assessed by immunohistochemistry.The expression levels of interferon-γ(IFN-γ),interleukin(IL)-4,IL-5,IL-13,and eotaxin in muscle tissue were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Peripheral blood and spleen were collected at different time points after infection.The percentages of CD4+IFN-γ+Th1 and CD4+IL-4+Th2 within CD4+T cells population in peripheral blood and spleen of mice were analyzed using flow cytometry.Results The proportions of eosinophils and fibroblasts among total infiltrating cells around the encapsulated larvae in the muscle of PD-1-/-mice were significantly lower than those in WT mice after T.spiralis infection(P＜0.01).The infected PD-1-/-mice exhibited higher proportions of macrophages,T cells and B cells in total infiltrating cells than the infected WT mice(P＜0.01).The levels of IL-4,IL-5,IL-13,and eotaxin in the muscle tissue of infected PD-1-/-mice were significantly lower than those in infected WT mice(P＜0.05).However,IFN-γ levels were not significantly different between the infected WT and PD-1-/-mice.The proportions of Th2 cells in CD4+T cells from peripheral blood and spleen of infected PD-1-/-mice were significantly lower than those in infected WT mice,whereas the proportion of Th1 cells showed no difference among the infected groups.Conclusions PD-1 deletion results in decreased expression of key chemokines of eosinophils and key cytokines of fibroblast formation,and a corresponding decrease in inflammatory cells in muscle in T.spiralis-infected mice.This effect may be associated with a diminished Th2 immune response caused by PD-1 deletion.

Objective To establish a rapid,sensitive,and specific multiplex PCR detection method for the simultaneous detection of Cryptosporidium,Eimeria,and bovine parvovirus.Methods Specific primers targeting the SSU rRNA genes of Cryptosporidium and Eimeria,as well as the VP2 gene of bovine parvovirus were designed and the corresponding recombinant plasmid standards were constructed.To establish the multiplex PCR method,the reaction conditions were optimized using temperature gradient PCR and single-variable control methods.The sensitivity,specificity,reproducibility,and clinical application of the protocol were evaluated.Results The optimal annealing temperature was found to be 60.5℃,and the forward and reverse primer concentrations were determined to be 0.2 μmol/L for Eimeria,and 0.4 μmol/L for Cryptosporidium and bovine parvovirus.The assay demonstrated high sensitivity,with detection limits of 243,260,and 3 110 copies for the recombinant plasmid standards of Cryptosporidium,Eimeria,and bovine parvovirus,respectively.Specificity testing showed no cross-reactivity with ten common bovine pathogens,including Salmonella,bovine viral diarrhea virus,and bovine rotavirus.Consistent intra-and inter-batch results confirmed the strong reproducibility of the method.Clinical application to 81 diarrhea samples from various regions in the Ganzi Prefecture,Sichuan,revealed positivity rates of 18.52%(15/81)for Cryptosporidium,34.57%(28/81)for Eimeria,and 18.52%(15/81)forbovineparvovirus,withamixedinfectionrateof3.7%(3/81).Conclusions Themultiplex PCR method established in this study offers a reliable tool for differential diagnosis and epidemiological investigation of the three common diarrheal pathogens in yaks.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, treatment strategies, and prognostic outcomes of patients infected with Listeria monocytogenes, thereby providing evidence-based insights for the prevention and control of this disease.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data, diagnostic tests, treatment protocols, and prognostic outcomes of patients definitively diagnosed with Listeria monocytogenes infection at Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital over the past decade. Additionally, a comprehensive literature review was conducted, encompassing studies published between 2014 and 2024, sourced from CNKI, Wanfang Data, and PubMed. This review focused on summarizing the clinical features, treatment regimens, and prognostic outcomes of patients with Listeria monocytogenes infection.Results:The study cohort comprised 17 patients, with a mean age of (61.29 ± 16.24) years. The confirmed cases included 7 cases of bloodstream infections, 3 cases of central nervous system infections, and 7 cases of combined infections. Sepsis developed in 9 patients. The average time from symptom onset to the initiation of empirical antibiotic therapy was 72 hours, while the mean time to definitive diagnosis was 102 hours. Antimicrobial regimens predominantly featured penicillins, meropenem, and vancomycin. The average hospitalization duration was 16 days, with 9 patients experiencing adverse outcomes. A total of 78 relevant literature pieces were retrieved, encompassing data from 85 patients. The average age of these patients was (57.96 ± 16.48) years. Primary diagnostic methods relied on blood/cerebrospinal fluid cultures and Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS). Treatment regimens primarily involved antibiotics such as penicillins, aminoglycosides, carbapenems, and glycopeptides. Despite these interventions, the proportion of patients with poor prognosis remained significantly high at 30.6% (26/85). Logistic regression analysis identified sepsis and delayed antibiotic administration as independent predictors of poor prognosis.Conclusions:Listeriosis, caused by an opportunistic pathogen, necessitates early antibiotic administration and timely identification of at-risk populations to mitigate the risk of poor prognostic outcomes in patients.
