Liraglutide (Lira), a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist approved for diabetes and obesity, has shown significant potential in treating metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD). However, its systematic molecular regulation and mechanisms remain underexplored. In this study, a mouse model of MASLD was developed using a high-fat diet (HFD), followed by Lira administration. Proteomics and glycoproteomics were analyzed using label-free liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), while potential molecular target analysis was conducted via quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and Western blotting. Our results revealed that Lira treatment significantly reduced liver weight and serum markers, including alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and others, with glycosylation changes playing a more significant role than overall protein expression. The glycoproteome identified 255 independent glycosylation sites, emphasizing the impact of Lira on amino acid, carbohydrate metabolism, and ferroptosis. Simultaneously, proteomic analysis highlighted its effects on lipid metabolism and fibrosis pathways. 21 signature molecules, including 7 proteins and 14 N-glycosylation sites (N-glycosites), were identified as potential targets. A Lira hydrogel formulation (Lira@fibrin (Fib) Gel) was developed to extend drug dosing intervals, offering enhanced therapeutic efficacy in managing chronic metabolic diseases. Our study demonstrated the importance of glycosylation regulation in the therapeutic effects of Lira on MASLD, identifying potential molecular targets and advancing its clinical application for MASLD treatment.

Objective:To explore the value of a scoring system based on preoperative abdominal computed tomography (CT) for predicting the difficulty of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 105 patients diagnosed with gallstones or cholecystitis who underwent LC at Beijing Jishuitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2021 and February 2022. Based on surgical video reviews, patients were divided into the easy group ( n=58) and the difficult group ( n=47) according to the intraoperative Parkland Grading Scale (PGS), with PGS grades 1-2 assigned to the easy group, and PGS grades 3-5 assigned to the difficult group. The normally distributed measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s), and compared using independent samples t-test; the non-normally distributed measurement data were expressed as median (interquartile range) [ M ( Q1, Q3)], and compared using the rank-sum test. The count data were expressed as the number of cases and percentage, and compared using the Chi-square test or Fisher exact probability method. Univariate analysis and cut-off value determination: for continuous CT variables, univariate Logistic regression and stepwise regression analyses (with surgical difficulty grouping as the dependent variable) were performed to identify the optimal combination of predictive variables and establish a scoring system. For each significantly associated continuous variable or important CT image feature from a clinical perspective, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate its predictive performance for difficult surgery. The area under the curve (AUC) was calculated, and the optimal cut-off value was determined using the Youden index to maximize the sum of sensitivity and specificity. The categorical CT image features were scored according to their original groups. The Kappa consistency test was used to assess the strength of agreement between the preoperative abdominal CT score (grouped by the optimal cut-off) and PGS grades (easy/difficult). Decision curve analysis (DCA) was employed to validate the predictive performance of the model. Results:Stepwise Logistic regression identified seven key imaging features as the optimal predictive variables for constructing the preoperative abdominal CT scoring system: maximum gallbladder cross-sectional diameter, maximum gallbladder cross-sectional width, gallbladder wall thickness, common bile duct diameter, pericholecystic fat stranding, periductal fat stranding, and impacted cystic duct stones. Each case was scored after assigning scores based on the optimal cut-off values. The total score of the preoperative abdominal CT scoring system was ≥3 points predicted difficult LC with an AUC of 0.745 (95% CI: 0.650-0.839), sensitivity of 66.0%, and specificity of 75.9%. DCA confirmed the model′s reliable predictive performance, and the preoperative abdominal CT scoring system showed good agreement with PGS grades ( Kappa value was 0.420, P<0.001). Conclusions:The preoperative abdominal CT scoring system based on pericholecystic imaging features can effectively predict the difficulty of LC with good discriminative ability. It provides a quantitative tool for preoperative assessment, surgical scheduling, and ambulatory surgery management.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Xiaomudan Granules on PERK/eIF2α/ATF4 pathway and lipid metabolism in NAFLD mice.Methods:Totally 60 mice were divided into a normal group of 10 mice and a high-fat diet group of 50 mice. The high-fat diet group was given a high-fat diet to establish a NAFLD mouse model. The high-fat feed group was divided into model group, metformin group, and Xiaomudan Granules low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups according to the random number table method. Xiaomudan Granules low-, medium-, and high-dosage groups were orally administered with concentrated Xiaomudan Granules at dosages of 11.7, 23.4, and 46.8 g/kg, respectively. The metformin group was orally administered with metformin solution at a dose of 0.2 g/kg, while the normal group and model group were orally administered with distilled water of equal volume once a day for 8 consecutive weeks. The liver oil red O staining of mice was observed in each group. The protein expressions of p-PERK, p-eIF2α, ATF4, C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), CCAAT enhancer binding protein alpha (C/EBPα), C/EBPβ, and steroid regulatory element binding protein 2 (SREBP2) were detected by Western blot. Fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the mRNA expressions of ATF4, CHOP, C/EBPα, C/EBPβ, and SREBP2.Results:The liver tissue structure and steatosis of mice were improved in Xiaomudan Granules groups. Compared with the model group, the expressions of p-PERK/PERK, ATF4, C/EBPα, C/EBPβ, and SREBP2 proteins decreased in Xiaomudan Granules groups and the metformin group ( P<0.01 or P<0.05). The expressions of p-eIF2α/eIF2α and CHOP proteins decreased in the Xiaomudan Granules medium- and high-dosage groups and the metformin group ( P<0.01); compared with the model group, the levels of ATF4, CHOP, C/EBPα, and C/EBPβ mRNA in Xiaomudan Granules groups and the metformin group decreased ( P<0.01), while the levels of SREBP2 mRNA in the Xiaomudan Granules medium- and high-dosage groups and the metformin group decreased ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Xiaomudan Granules may improve liver lipid metabolism and reduce liver fat deposition in NAFLD mice by regulating the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4 pathway.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis(IPF)is a chronic progressive interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology,with a rapid disease course,poor prognosis,and the absence of effective therapeutic drugs.Mitochondrial dys-function is one of the crucial causes of inducing IPF.Silent information regulator 3(SIRT3)can restore mitochondrial ho-meostasis by inhibiting mitochondrial oxidative stress,repairing mitochondrial DNA damage,and ameliorating abnormal mitochondrial lipid metabolism.This paper summarizes the role and mechanism of SIRT3 in attenuating mitochondrial dys-function based on delineating the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and IPF,aiming to provide references for finding effective treatment methods for IPF.

The patients were divided into a robot group (using the self-designed robot reduction system to assist intramedullary nailing) and a traction bed group (using a traction bed to assist intramedullary nailing) based on their fracture reduction method. The robot group: 31 patients, 11 males and 20 females, with an age of (78.7±9.3) years; 16 left and 15 right sides; 17 cases of type 31-A1, 12 cases of type 31-A2 and 2 cases of type 31-A3 by the AO/OTA classification. The traction bed group: 26 patients, 12 males and 14 females, with an age of (78.7±7.7) years; 13 left and 13 right sides; 16 cases of type 31-A1, 9 cases of type 31-A2 and 1 cases of type 31-A3 by the AO/OTA classification. The 2 groups were compared in terms of reduction and operation time, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy frequency, reduction quality, and VAS and Harris score at preoperation, 1 week and 6 months postoperation.Results:The 2 groups were comparable due to insignificant differences in their preoperative general data ( P>0.05). The robot group was significantly better than the traction bed group in reduction time [(4.4±2.2) min versus (9.4±3.2) min], operation time [(29.0±13.5) min versus (49.3±13.3) min], intraoperative blood loss [(76.5±30.5) mL versus (115.0±38.4) mL], fluoroscopy frequency [(10.2±2.6) times versus (14.8±3.2) times], and good/excellent rate of reduction [80.6% (25/31) versus 50.0% (13/26)] ( P<0.05). All patients were followed up for (6.8±0.3) months. Respectively, the VAS scores at preoperation and 6 months postoperation was (6.2±1.3) and (2.4±0.8) points for the robot group, and (6.3±1.3) and (2.7±0.8) points for the traction bed group, showing no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). However, the VAS score was (3.3±1.2) points for the robotic group and (4.8±1.5) points for the traction bed group at 1 week postoperation, showing a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P<0.001). Respectively, the Harris scores at preoperation and 6 months postoperation were (35.3±3.0) and (88.7±3.4) points for the robot group, and (35.6±2.9) and (87.2±3.5) points for the traction bed group, showing no statistically significant differences between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). However, the Harris score was (57.3±3.7) points for the robotic group and (46.7±2.8) points for the traction bed group at 1 week postoperation, showing a statistically significant difference between the 2 groups ( P<0.05). The patient satisfaction rates in the robot and traction bed groups were 96.8% (30/31) and 92.3% (24/26), respectively, showing no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Our self-designed robot reduction for femoral intertrochanteric fractures can effectively shorten reduction and operation time, reduce bleeding and fluoroscopy frequency, and enhance anatomical reduction.
