Objective To compare the efficacies of acellular dermal matrix(ADM)and pedicle buccal fat pad flap(PBFPF)in repairing buccal soft tissue defect.Methods A total of 84 patients undergoing repair of buccal mucosa defect in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the ADM group and PBFPF group,with 42 cases in each group.Patients of the ADM group were repaired tby ADM,while patients of the the PBFPF group were repaired by PBFPF.The repair time,oral feeding time,hospital stay were compared between the two groups.The maximum opening degree of patients before surgery,and 1 week,1 month and 6 months after surgery was measured and compared.The effective rate of repair and the occurrence of complications of patients were recorded.The improvement of oral and maxillofa-cial function(including swallowing function,language function and masticatory function)after surgery of patients were observed.Results There was no significant difference in the repair time,oral feeding time,hospital stay,total incidence of complications,postoperative swallowing function or postoperative language function between the two groups(P＞0.05).The maximum opening degree had no significant difference between the ADM group and PBFPF group or in the interaction effect between groups and time points(P＞0.05),but had signifi-cant difference in the comparison of time points(P＜0.05).The effective rate of repair for patients with defect area of＞13～20 cm2 in the PBFPF group was higher than that in the ADM group(P＜0.05).The masticatory function of patients in the PBFPF group was better than that in the ADM group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Both PBFPF and ADM have advantages in the repair of oral mucosal tissue defects,and PBFPF has better repair effect in patients with larger mucosal defect area(＞13～20 cm2).

Based on network pharmacology and in vitro assays,we conducted a collaborative investi-gation into the protective effects of ginsenosides Rg1 and Re on LPS-induced damage of porcine je-junal epithelial cells IPEC-J2.Network pharmacology was used to obtain and screen the intersec-ting targets of Rg1 and Re to alleviate intestinal barrier damage,and molecular docking technique was used to verify the predicted results of network pharmacology.The experiment included the Control group,LPS group,Rg1 group,and Re group.The effects of different concentrations of Rg1 and Re on cell survival rate,apoptosis rate,TEER value,FD4 permeability,and inflammatory fac-tors of IPEC-J2 were observed,and the effects of different concentrations of Rg1 and Re on the mRNA expression levels of apoptosis-related genes were also detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The results of network pharmacology showed that the prevention of intestinal barrier damage by Rg1,Re mainly involved the processes of PI3K-Akt and MAPK signaling pathways.The molec-ular docking results showed that the binding energy of Rg1 to all intersecting targets was less than 0,while that of ginsenoside Re to SRC targets only was less than 0.In vitro experiments showed that pretreatment with different concentrations of Rg1 and Re increased the survival rate and TEER value of LPS-treated IPEC-J2 to varying degrees,and reduced the apoptosis,the decrease of FD4 permeability,and the secretion of inflammatory factor TNF-α,suggesting that Re and Rg1 prevented the intestinal barrier from damage.It was shown that Re and Rg1 could effectively re-duce the effects of LPS treatment on IPEC-J2 cells.Rg1 significantly upregulated the mRNA ex-pression levels of MAPK8,MAPK10,HRAS,and significantly down-regulated the mRNA expres-sion levels of MAP2K1,PIK3CG,IL-2 and SRC;and Re significantly upregulated the mRNA ex-pression levels of MAPK8,MAPK10,HRAS,and PIK3R1,BCL2 gene mRNA expression levels.These results suggest that ginsenosides Rg1,Re and ginsenoside products containing Rg1 and Re deserve further investigation in preventing intestinal barrier damage in piglets.

Klebsiella pneumoniae(KPn),as a conditioned pathogen that causes calf pneumonia,has caused serious harm to cattle industry,but the harm of Klebsiella pneumoniae to calves in Xin-jiang region is still unclear.In this study,to investigate the prevalence of KPn,its harm and some biological characteristics of pneumonia calves in Xinjiang,nasal swabs of pneumonia calves in some areas were collected aseptically,KPn isolation and identification were performed by routine meth-od,and 16S rDNA sequence evolutionary tree analysis was performed.The drug resistance was de-tected by K-B method,and a strain carrying multiple virulence was selected for mice median lethal dose test.The serotype,virulence gene and drug resistance gene of the strain were detected by PCR.The results showed that the detection rate of Klebsiella pneumoniae in nasal swabs of 218 pneumonia calves from Aksu,Changji and Yili regions of Xinjiang was as follows:14.68％(32/218),including 28.33％(17/60)in Aksu Prefecture,24.00％(6/25)in Changji Prefecture and 6.77％(9/133)in Yili Prefecture,they were divided into two serotypes,namely K1(7/32)and K5(5/32).A total of 13 KPn virulence genes were detected,mainly mrkD,ureA,wabG,uge and en-tB.LD50 was 2.38X 107cfu/mL.Drug susceptibility test and drug resistance gene detection showed that the isolated strain showed multiple drug resistance,and the resistance genes mainly carried blasHv and floR.16S rDNA sequence evolutionary tree results showed that the isolated strain had high homology with the isolates from Italy,Beijing and Shanghai of China.The detection rate of KPn in nasal swabs of pneumonia calves in Xinjiang region is high.The dominant serotypes are K1 and K5.The isolates carry a variety of virulence genes and have strong virulence.All of them are KPn strains producing ESBLs,suggesting that Klebsiella pneumoniae in Xinjiang region of China have a certain potential harm to calves.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics,therapeutic effect and prognostic factors of patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma(HL).Methods:A total of 129 patients with HL diagnosed in Peking University Third Hospital from January 2010 to March 2021 who were given at least one efficacy assessment after treatment were enrolled,and their clinical data,including sex,age,pathological type,Ann Arbor stage,ECOG score,blood test,β2-microglobulin,lactate dehydrogenase level,albumin level were collected.The clinical characteristics,therapeutic effect and long-term prognosis of the patients were summarized and analyzed.Results:In classical HL,nodular sclerosis HL accounted for the highest proportion of 51.6％,followed by mixed cellularity HL(36.5％),lymphocyte-rich classical HL(3.2％),and lymphocyte depletion HL(0.7％),while nodular lymphocyte predominant HL accounted for 4.8％.The 3-year overall survival(OS)rate of HL patients was 89.8％,and 5-year OS was 85.0％.The 3-year progression-free survival(PFS)rate was 73.4％,and 5-year PFS was 63.1％.Multivariate regression analysis indicated that IPI score was an independent negative factor,while hemoglobin(Hb)level was an independent positive factor for OS in HL patients.When the mediastinal mass size was 9.2 cm,it was most significant to judge the survival status of HL patients.5-year OS and 5-year PFS were 97.4％and 76.0％in early-stage HL patients without large mass,respectively,while in patients with advanced-stage HL was 83.4％and 55.9％(both P＜0.05).After 2-4 courses of treatment,the overall response rate(ORR)of patients who received chemotherapy combined with radiotherapy was 95.0％,while that was 89.6％in those with chemotherapy alone.Conclusions:The overall prognosis of patients with HL is satisfactory,especially those in early-stage without large mass.IPI score and Hb level are independent risk factors for the prognosis of HL patients.A 9.2 cm mediastinal mass can be used as the cut-off value for the prognosis of Chinese HL patients.

Objective This paper intends to compare the efficacy and safety of high-dose dual regimens containing Vonoprazan and proton pump inhibitor in patients infected with Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori).Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted.According to inclusion and exclusion criteria.,243 patients with H.pylori infection admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology,the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from February 2023 to December 2023 were enrolled as the research objects.They were randomly divided into two groups.The high-dose dual therapy containing Vonoprazan group(VPZ-HDDT group)was given Vonoprazan fumarate tablet 20mg twice daily plus amoxicillin 750 mg four times daily for 14 days and the high-dose combination group containing PPI(PPI-HDDT group)was given esomeprazole 40 mg twice daily plus amoxicillin 750 mg four times daily for 14 days.Patients were followed up and recorded by telephone or WeChat on the 7th and 14th day of starting treatment for drug intake and occurrence of adverse reactions.Patients were instructed to recheck the 13C or 14C urea breath test at least 1 month after the end of medication.Treatment by protocol(PP)analysis,modified intention to treat(mITT)and intention-to-treat(ITT)analysis were used for H.pylori eradication rates in both groups,and compliance and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results The eradication rates of the VPZ-HDDT group and the PPI-HDDT group in the initial treatment were 94.0％and 88.5％(P=0.209)by PP analysis,and 91.8％and 87.5％(P=0.358)86.7％by mITT analysis,and 81.9％(P=0.377)by ITT analysis,respectively.In the retreated patients,the PP analysis and mITT analysis eradication rates in these two groups were consistent,87.0％and 84.2％(P=0.800),respectively,and 83.3％and 76.2％(P=0.550)by ITT analysis.For the refractory H.pylori patients,the PP analysis and mITT analysis eradication rates in these two groups were also consistent,71.4％and 50.0％(P=0.429),and the eradication rates of ITT analysis were 62.5％and 50.0％(P=0.640),respectively.In different stratifications,the eradication rates of the VPZ-HDDT group were higher than those of the PPI-HDDT group,but the differences were not statistically significant.The incidence of adverse reactions and compliance of the VPZ-HDDT group and the PPI-HDDT group were similar,with no statistically significant differences.Conclusion Both two combination regimens can achieve clinically acceptable eradication rates(＞85％)in the first-time treatment patients.For the retreated and refractory patients,the choice of vonoprazan is more beneficial.

Objective To explore the value of pepsinogen and endothelial function changes in patients with Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection for the early evaluation of atrophic gastritis and gastric cancer.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 163 patients with chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection admitted from July 2022 to December 2023.Among them,78 patients with erosive gastritis complicated with Hp infection were in the Hp group,57 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis complicated with Hp infection were in the atrophic group,and 28 patients with gastric cancer complicated with Hp infection were in the gastric cancer group.The serum pepsinogen Ⅰ(PG Ⅰ),pepsinogen Ⅱ(PG Ⅱ)levels,and PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,as well as the levels of plasma nitrogen oxide(NO),endothelin-1(ET-1),intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and other endothelial function indicators among the three groups of patients were compared,and Spearman correlation method was applied to analyze the relationship between the levels of pepsinogen and endothelial function indicators in patients with chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection with the severity of their lesions.ROC curve was drawn to analyze the early evaluation value of pepsinogen and endothelial function indicators in patients with chronic gastritis and Hp infection for their progression to chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric cancer.Results Compared with those of the Hp group,the serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO levels in the atrophic group and gastric cancer group decreased,while the plasma ET-1 and ICAM-1 levels in the atrophic group and gastric cancer group increased(P＜0.05);Compared with those of the atrophic group,the serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO levels in the gastric cancer group decreased,while plasma ET-1 and ICAM-1 levels in the gastric cancer group increased(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the levels of serum PG Ⅱ among the three groups(P＞0.05).The Spearman correlation analysis results showed that the serum PGⅠ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO level in patients with chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection were negatively correlated with the severity of the disease(P＜0.05);The levels of plasma ET-1 and ICAM-1 were positively correlated with the severity of the lesion(P＜0.05).The ROC curve analysis results showed that serum PG Ⅰ,PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio,and plasma NO,ET-1,and ICAM-1 levels all have certain early evaluation efficacy for the progression of chronic gastritis complicated with Hp infection to chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric cancer.Among them,the combined detection of various indicators had the best early evaluation efficacy.Conclusion Hp infection can lead to a decrease in pepsinogen levels and endothelial dysfunction in patients,and the combined detection of the levels of the two related indicators may serve as reference indicators for early risk assessment of Hp infection progression to chronic atrophic gastritis or gastric cancer.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of protein A immunoadsorption (PAIA) combined with rituximab (RTX) in highly sensitized patients who underwent haplo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) .Methods:The clinical data of 56 highly sensitized patients treated with PAIA and RTX before haplo-HSCT at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and Soochow Hopes Hematonosis Hospital between March 2021 and June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The number of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibody types and the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI), humoral immunity, adverse reactions during adsorption, and survival within 100 days before and after adsorption were measured.Results:After receiving the PAIA treatment, the median MFI of patients containing only HLA Ⅰ antibodies decreased from 7 859 (3 209-12 444) to 3 719 (0-8 275) ( P<0.001), and the median MFI of HLA Ⅰ+Ⅱ antibodies decreased from 5 476 (1 977-12 382) to 3 714 (0-11 074) ( P=0.035). The median MFI of patients with positive anti-donor-specific antibodies decreased from 8 779 (2 697-18 659) to 4 524 (0–15 989) ( P<0.001). The number of HLA-A, B, C, DR, and DQ antibodies in all patients decreased after the PAIA treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (A, B, C, DR: P<0.001, DQ: P<0.01). The humoral immune monitoring before and after the PAIA treatment showed a significant decrease in the number of IgG and complement C3 ( P<0.001 and P=0.002, respectively). Forty-four patients underwent HLA antibody monitoring after transplantation, and the overall MFI and number of antibody types decreased. However, five patients developed new antibodies with low MFI, and nine patients continued to have high MFI. The overall survival, disease-free survival, non-recurrent mortality, and cumulative recurrence rates at 100 days post-transplantation were 83.8%, 80.2%, 16.1%, and 4.5%, respectively. Conclusions:The combination of PAIA and RTX has a certain therapeutic effect and good safety in the desensitization treatment of highly sensitive patients before haplo-HSCT.
