Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma(PPAR-γ)is a member of the ligand-activated nuclear tran-scription factor superfamily.Activated PPAR-γ is involved in the regulation of many central nervous system(CNS)events,and is involved in cholesterol metabolism by inducing or inhibi-ting a series of gene pathways,thereby inhibiting the deposition of β-amyloid protein(Aβ).It plays an important neuroprotec-tive role in Alzheimer's disease(AD),improves memory and cognition in AD,and is a potential target for AD.Drug develop-ment aimed at restoring cholesterol homeostasis may be a poten-tial strategy to counteract AD.By analyzing the distribution and structure of PPAR-γ,focusing on the biological correlation be-tween PPAR-γ-mediated cholesterol metabolism and AD,this paper describes the mechanism regulation of PPAR-γ on key proteins,genes and their corresponding molecules,providing a new reference for the treatment of AD.

Objective To explore the standardized process and method of atrial septum puncture(ASP)in swine guided by X-ray fluoroscopy and make ASP more safe and effective.Methods ASP was performed in 48 Pudong swines guided by X-ray fluoroscopy.Three protocols for precise location of atrial septal puncture points were recommended.(1)Site of atrial septal puncture point in cranial-caudal direction was determined under posterior-anterior projection,which was confined to the cranial side of the coronary sinus(CS)orifice at a distance of 1 cone body height along the midline of spine.(2)With 10° intervals,the fluoroscopy of the CS catheter was completed according to the right anterior oblique 10°～60° and the left anterior oblique 10°～60°,and the connection line of the CS 5-6 and 7-8 electrodes was perpendicular to the oval fossa,so as to confirm the perspective angle of the CS 5-6 and 7-8 electrodes in the same straight line.(3)The arch feature of puncture needle and distal part of sheath turned into a straight line under the perspective angle,of which the CS 5-6 and 7-8 electrodes were in the same straight line.Results ASP was successfully performed in 48 Pudong swines without any complications.Echocardiography showed left to right shunt through atrial septum after ASP.The average time of ASP was(25.7±11.5)minutes,the average X-ray exposure time is(14.0±3.4)min and the average radiation dose was(47.6±20.2)Gmy.Conclusions Using the coronal sinus electrode as a reference,atrial septal puncture in swine guided by X-ray fluoroscopy was safe and reliable.

AP2 transcription factors belong to the AP2/ERF superfamily and are involved in the regula-tion of various biological processes in plant growth and development,as well as in response to biotic and abiotic stresses.However,studies on the AP2 transcription factor family of Perilla frutescens have not been reported.In this study,totally 18 AP2 family members were identified from the Perilla frutescens ge-nome and analyzed for gene structure,conserved motifs,and cis-acting elements using bioinformatics.WRINKLED1(WRI1)is a key regulator of lipid biosynthesis in many plant species and plays an impor-tant role in the regulation of lipid synthesis.Sequence comparison revealed that one member of WRI1 is highly homologous to AtWRI1 and contains two conserved AP2 domains,named PfWRI1.The expression levels of PfAP2 family genes were analyzed in different tissues of Perilla frutescens and at different stages of seed development in conjunction with the transcriptome data,and the results showed that PfWRI1 is highly expressed only in the seeds of Perilla frutescens,suggesting that PfWRI1 may be related to the de-velopmental process of the seeds.The overexpression vector of plant pCAMBIA1303-PfWRI1 was con-structed,and wild-type(Col)and mutant(wri1-1)Arabidopsis thaliana were transformed by Agrobacte-rium tumefaciens to obtain overexpression and complementation lines,respectively.The results showed that the expression of P fWRI1 led to an increase in oil content of Arabidopsis seeds by 8.90％-13.57％compared with Col,and promoted the accumulation of oleic acid(C18:1)and linoleic acid(18:2)and reduced the accumulation of palmitic acid(C16:0),arachidonic acid(C20:0),and cis-11-Eicosenoic acid(C20:1)in transgenic Arabidopsis seeds.In addition,PfWRI1 gene expression increased the ex-pression of glycolysis and fatty acid biosynthesis-related genes AtPKP-α,AtPKP-β1,AtBCCP2,AtSUS2,and AtLIP1.Taken together,PfWRI1 may promote lipid accumulation by increasing unsaturated fatty acid content through interaction with the above genes.

Objective:This study aims to discuss the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric appendicovesical fistula (AVF).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of a pediatric patient with AVF admitted to our hospital in March 2023. The patient was a 6-year and 11-month old male who was hospitalized on March 21, 2023, due to difficulty urinating accompanied by diarrhea for two weeks. Computed tomography (CT) revealed bladder stones. The preoperative diagnosis was bladder stones. Transurethral cystoscopic lithotripsy with laser was performed under general anesthesia. Two weeks postoperatively, the child presented with recurrent symptoms of frequent urination, urinary pain, and diarrhea. Urine routine examination indicated a urinary tract infection. Over a month of antibiotic treatment was ineffective, and symptoms such as pneumaturia and fecaluria emerged, with exacerbation of diarrhea, suggesting the possibility of a fistulous tract between the child's intestine and bladder. Further bladder ultrasonography with contrast showed microbubbles of contrast medium leaking from the right posterior bladder wall into the intestinal tract. Enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) demonstrated a small, sharp tube-like shadow at the upper edge of the right posterior bladder, with a strip-like, significantly enhanced shadow within the lumen. The preoperative diagnosis was revised to appendicovesical fistula. During cystoscopic examination, a papillary-like protrusion was identified on the right lateral wall of the bladder, with no evident orificium fistulae or foreign body discharge noted at the protrusion site. Consequently, robot-assisted laparoscopic partial cystectomy, appendectomy, and lysis of adhesions were performed.Results:The patient was administered antibiotic for a 10-day course of anti-infection and a urinary catheter was maintained for 13 days. The patient recovered entirely and had been discharged after the removal of the urinary catheter. At an 11-month follow-up, there were no reported specific discomforts.Conclusions:Pediatric AVF is rare, and bladder contrast-enhanced ultrasonography and MRI are preferred for initial diagnostic evaluation. The diagnosis can be confirmed by specific clinical presentations such as intermittent pneumaturia and fecaluria, diarrhea with bladder stones. Laparoscopic surgery or robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery could be a feasible treatment option.

Objective:To evaluate the real-world safety of the domestic rotavirus attenuated live vaccine in China.Methods:Studies on the incidence of adverse event following immunization (AEFI) published from January 1, 2020 to July 31, 2023 were retrieved from National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), CQVIP, Wanfang Database, PubMed, Medline, and Embase. Surveillance data about AEFI reports related to the domestic rotavirus vaccine rotavirus were collected. A meta-analysis on the safety of the rotavirus vaccine after vaccination was conducted using R software, and subgroup analyses were conducted on the incidence of AEFI in different regions and time periods.Results:A total of 36 articles were included involving 25.332 million doses of vaccine. The incidence of AEFI associated with the domestic rotavirus vaccine was 19/100 000 doses [95%CI: 15/100 000-24/100 000 doses]; the incidence was 26/100 000 doses [95%CI: 17/100 000-39/100 000 doses] in the northern regions and 16/100 000 doses [95%CI: 11/100 000-23/100 000 doses] in the southern regions; it was 24/100 000 doses [95%CI: 12/100 000-45/100 000 doses] before 2017 and 27/100 000 doses [95%CI: 18/100 000-39/100 000 doses] after 2017.Conclusions:The incidence of AEFI related to the domestic rotavirus vaccine is within the expected range, and the safety of the vaccine is good based on the real-world data.

Objective:To evaluate the analgesic effects of lidocaine cream and ice application during botulinum toxin type A treatment on bilateral gastrocnemius hypertrophy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted, including 60 patients who underwent botulinum toxin type A treatment for bilateral gastrocnemius hypertrophy at Peking University Shenzhen Hospital from January 2020 to January 2022. Patients were divided into two groups based on the analgesic methods: lidocaine surface anesthesia group (lidocaine group, 30 cases) and ice application analgesia group (ice group, 30 cases). The lidocaine group consisted of 2 males and 28 females, with a mean age of (27.0±5.0) years, while the ice group consisted of 30 females, with a mean age of (26.2±4.4) years. Depending on individual needs, 100-200 U of botulinum toxin type A was injected into the calf muscle of each patient. In the lidocaine group, nurses applied lidocaine cream to the injection area and covered it with a film before injection. In the ice group, nurses used custom-made ice packs to surround the injection site for 10 minutes. Pain levels were assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS) during injection, including pain scores for needle puncture and drug injection. The incidence of postoperative adverse reactions and patient satisfaction rates were also recorded.Results:The VAS score for needle puncture pain was (2.60±1.25) in the lidocaine group and (2.30±1.12) in the ice group, with no statistically significant difference ( P=0.331). However, the VAS score for drug injection pain was significantly higher in the lidocaine group (3.47±1.25) than that in the ice group (2.77±1.28, P=0.036). The overall analgesic VAS score was (3.37±1.16) in the lidocaine group, also significantly higher than that (2.60±1.25) in the ice group ( P=0.017). Two patients in the lidocaine group experienced localized swelling, and one reported localized itching with a rash, while no adverse reactions were observed in the ice group. Patient satisfaction rates were 86.7% (26/30) in the lidocaine group and 93.3% (28/30) in the ice group. Conclusions:Ice application provides superior analgesic effects compared to lidocaine cream surface anesthesia during botulinum toxin type A treatment for bilateral gastrocnemius hypertrophy.

Objective:To investigate the application value of transanal endoscopic intersphincteric resection (taE-ISR) in sphincter preservation for low rectal cancer.Methods:The pro-pensity score matching and retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 278 patients with low rectal cancer who were admitted to 5 medical centers, including Ruijin Hospital of Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine et al, from January 2017 to December 2021 were collected. There were 178 males and 100 females, aged 58 (range, 49-64)years. Of 278 pati-ents, 147 cases undergoing taE-ISR were divided into the taE-ISR group, and 131 cases undergoing intersphincteric resection (ISR) were divided into the ISR group. Observation indicators:(1) propen-sity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) comparison of intraoperative and postoperative conditions between the two groups; (3) long-term follow-up of the two groups; (4) analysis of risk factors affecting sphincter preservation for low rectal cancer. Propensity score matching was done by the 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method, with a caliper value of 0.05. Propensity score matching analysis was done using the Matching package. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the Student′s t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the Pearson chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate survival rate and plot survival curve, and the Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model with the "glm2" package. The forest plot was used to show the risk factors affecting sphincter preservation for low rectal cancer. Results:(1) Propensity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of 278 patients, 180 cases were successfully matched, including 90 cases in the taE-ISR group and 90 cases in the ISR group, respectively. After propensity score matching, the elimination of distance between ischial tuberosities and distance from ischial tuberosity to the skin of buttocks confounding bias ensured comparability between the two groups. (2) Comparison of intraoperative and postoperative conditions between the two groups. Cases with positive distal margins, cases with specimen integrity, cases with sphincter preservation were 1, 88, 88 in the taE-ISR group and 8, 78, 74 in the ISR group, showing significant differences between the two groups ( P<0.05). (3) Long-term follow-up of the two groups. The median follow-up time was 4.3(range, 3.8-5.0)years of the taE-ISR group and 4.1(range, 3.4-4.7)years of the ISR group. The overall survival rate, disease-free survival rate and cumulative recurrence rate were 100.0%, 95.6% and 2.2% of the taE-ISR group, versus 98.9%, 87.8% and 10.0% of the ISR group, showing no significant difference in overall survival rate between the two groups ( χ2=0.97, P>0.05) and significant differences in disease-free survival rate and cumulative recurrence rate between the two groups ( χ2=4.05, 5.26, P<0.05). (4) Analysis of risk factors affecting sphincter preservation for low rectal cancer. Results of multivariate analysis showed that taE-ISR, distance from the tumor to the anus, and adjacent organ damage were independent factors affecting sphincter preservation for low rectal cancer ( odds ratio=0.86, 0.88, 1.35, 95% confidence interval as 0.79-0.93, 0.83-0.92, 1.04-1.74, P<0.05). In further analysis, there were significant differences in sphincter preservation and defecatory dysfunction between the 21 cases with neoadjuvant therapy in the taE-ISR group and the 19 cases with neoadjuvant therapy in the ISR group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The taE-ISR is safe and feasible for patients with low rectal cancer. Compared with ISR, taE-ISR can significantly improve surgical quality, sphincter preservation rate and patient prognosis.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.
