ObjectiveTo explore the function and related molecular mechanisms of magnoflorine against colon cancer via network pharmacology， molecular docking， and in vitro cell experiments. MethodsIn this study， the canonical SMILES of magnoflorine was obtained from the PubChem database， and the potential targets of magnoflorine were predicted by the Swiss Target Prediction database， while the disease targets of colon cancer were obtained from the DisGeNET， GeneCards and OMIM databases. The intersecting targets between magnoflorine's predicted targets and colon cancer disease targets were taken， and a protein-protein interaction （PPI） network was constructed and analyzed. The DAVID online database was employed to conduct Gene Ontology （GO） and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses on core targets. The top five key targets screened were docked with magnoflorine using AutoDock software. Finally， cellular experiments including CCK-8 assays， EdU experiments， cell scratch assays， and Transwell assays were conducted to validate the results from network pharmacology and molecular docking. Results44 key targets of magnoflorine in resisting colon cancer were acquired. The molecular docking results showed that magnoflorine had a strong binding activity with the core target signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） in the top five of the PPI network. Cellular experiments confirmed that magnoflorine could inhibit the proliferation and migration of colon cancer cells by suppressing the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway. ConclusionMagnoflorine may inhibit the proliferation and migration of colon cancer cells by regulating the JAK/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of two surgical approaches for lumbar Brucellar spondylitis: one-stage posterior approach debridement with intervertebral bone graft fusion and pedicle screw-rod internal fixation (simple posterior group) versus one-stage anterior approach debridement with intervertebral bone graft fusion combined with posterior pedicle screw-rod internal fixation (combined anterior-posterior group).Methods:A systematic search was performed in the Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Chinese Biomedical Literature Database (CBM), VIP, and Wanfang Data from the time of database establishment to May 2024 to identify randomized controlled trial (RCT) and controlled clinical trial (CCT) comparing the two surgical approaches (simple posterior group and combined anterior-posterior group) in the treatment of lumbar Brucellar spondylitis. Meta-analysis was conducted by two researchers using RevMan 5.4.0 and Stata 13.1 software.Results:A total of 8 studies (2 RCTs, 6 CCTs studies) were included, including 669 patients (344 in the simple posterior group and 325 in the combined anterior-posterior group). Meta-analysis results revealed that the simple posterior group demonstrated shorter surgical time [ WMD = - 125.68, 95% CI ( - 186.84, - 64.53), P < 0.001], less intraoperative bleeding [ WMD = - 385.76, 95% CI ( - 572.40, - 199.11), P < 0.001], shorter hospital stay [ WMD = - 5.60, 95% CI ( - 8.30, - 2.91), P < 0.001], earlier postoperative ambulation time [ WMD = - 6.15, 95% CI ( - 10.72, - 1.59), P = 0.008], and a smaller Cobb angle at 3 months after surgery [ WMD = - 0.66, 95% CI ( - 1.23, - 0.09), P = 0.020]. However, there was no statistically significant differences in erythrocyte sedimentation rate [ WMD = 0.01, 95% CI ( - 0.90, 0.93), P = 0.980], visual analogue scale scores [ WMD = - 0.19, 95% CI ( - 0.40, 0.01), P = 0.070], Oswestry disability index score [ WMD = 0.02, 95% CI ( - 0.61, 0.66), P = 0.950] at 3 months after surgery, and postoperative complication rate [ OR = 0.57, 95% CI (0.17, 1.94), P = 0.370]. Conclusions:Compared with the combined anterior-posterior approach, the simple posterior approach has the advantages of shorter surgical time, less bleeding, and faster postoperative recovery. However, there is no significant difference between the two in terms of symptom improvement, functional recovery, and incidence of complications. Simple posterior approach surgery is an effective choice for treating lumbar Brucellar spondylitis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of atosiban on hemodynamic parameters of uterine arteries and clinical effect evaluation in patients with previous implantation failure undergoing frozen-thawed embryo transfer.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze 298 cycles of FET in the Department of Reproductive Medicine of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2021 to June 2023. Patients were categorized into atosiban group ( n=149) and control group ( n=149) according to whether administered atosiban or not. The related indicators and clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups. Hemodynamic parameters of the uterine arteries, including bilateral uterine artery peak systolic velocity/diastolic velocity (S/D), pulsatility index (PI), resistance index (RI), and serum levels of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and oxytocin were compared before and after atosiban treatment. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were applied to assess the effect of atosiban on pregnancy outcomes. The effect of atosiban on live birth rate was analyzed by age stratification. Results:The implantation rate [51.92% (135/260)], the clinical pregnancy rate [67.11% (100/149)] and the live birth rate [59.06% (88/149)] in atosiban group were significantly higher than those in control group [41.13% (102/248), P=0.015; 51.01% (76/149), P=0.005; 40.27% (60/149), P=0.001]; and the early miscarriage rate [9.00% (9/100)] was lower than that of control group [19.74% (15/76), P=0.040]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that atosiban was an independent influencing factor of live birth rate ( OR=2.236, 95% CI: 1.371-3.646, P=0.001). The post-treatment right uterine artery blood flow S/D [4.61 (4.00, 5.36)], PI [1.81 (1.58, 2.05)], RI [0.79 (0.75, 0.82)], and left uterine artery blood flow S/D [4.62 (3.83, 5.61)], PI (1.84±0.38), RI [0.79 (0.74, 0.82)] were all lower than those before treatment [right S/D 4.93 (4.06, 6.04), P<0.001; PI 1.93 (1.60, 2.17), P=0.001; RI 0.80 (0.76, 0.83), P<0.001; left S/D 5.05 (4.20, 6.32), P<0.001; PI 1.95±0.43, P<0.001; RI 0.81 (0.76, 0.84), P<0.001]. Besides, the levels of PGF2α [97.01 (85.15, 109.93) ng/L] and oxytocin [41.18 (37.16, 46.78) ng/L] after treatment in atosiban group were significantly lower than those before treatment [119.71 (108.85, 129.99) ng/L, P<0.001; 51.87 (46.44, 55.54) ng/L, P<0.001). Moreover, the endometrial peristalsis waves in atosiban group were significantly less after treatment [1.00 (0.00, 2.00) times/min] than before treatment [2.00 (1.00, 3.00) times/min], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusion:Atosiban can improve uterine artery blood flow and reduce endometrial peristalsis waves in women with previous implantation failure, which increases endometrial blood perfusion. Additionally, it can also reduce the levels of PGF2α and oxytocin, and optimize the pregnancy outcome of the frozen-thawed embryo transfer.
