Aim To explore the protective effect of an-thocyanin B2(PCB2)on hydrogen peroxide(H2O2)induced oxidative damage and apoptosis in human oli-godendrocytes(MO3.13)and the underlying mecha-nism.Methods The optimal concentration of H2O2 and PCB2 for action was screened,and divided into normal group,PCB2 group(100 mg·L-1 PCB2 treat-ment for 24 hours),H2 O2 model group(500 μmol·L-1 H2O2 treatment for 24 hours),and H2O2+PCB2 group(500 μmol·L-1 H2O2 and 100 mg·L-1 PCB2 co-treated for 24 hours).FRAP method was used to detect the antioxidant capacity of PCB2;CCK-8 meth-od was used to detect the survival rate of cells in each group,while LDH method was used to assess cytotoxic-ity.Microenzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and ELISA were used to examine the levels of LDH,NO,H2O2,as well as the activities of CAT and SOD in each group of cells.Immunofluorescence and Western blot were used to detect the protein expression levels of NRF2,xCT,HO-1,ferritin,and GPX4 in each group of cells.FerroOrange fluorescent probe was used to de-tect the intracellular content of ferrous ions(Fe2+).Results H2O2 could induce MO3.13 oxidative dam-age and lead to cell ferroptosis,while PCB2 could alle-viate MO3.13 oxidative damage and ferroptosis.Com-pared with the H2O2 model group,PCB2 intervention could significantly increase LDH content in MO3.13,reduce NO and H2O2 content,and improve SOD and CAT activity,and up-regulate the protein expression levels of NRF2,xCT,HO-1,ferritin,and GPX4.Conclusion PCB2 can enhance cellular antioxidant capacity and alleviate H2O2 induced MO3.13 oxidative damage through the NRF2/HO-1/xCT/GPX4 axis.

DPP4 is a serine exopeptidase that is immobilized on the cell membrane and plays a crucial regulatory role in various physiological and pathological activities within the human body.In addition to acting as a transcription factor to regulate the tran-scription and expression of downstream target genes,DPP4 also functions as a transcription-independent regulator through pro-tein-protein interactions.In recent studies,DPP4 has been strongly linked to various diseases,and several substances with the potential to target DPP4 have been identified.This paper mainly reviews the multifunctionality of DPP4 in regulating vari-ous aspects of energy metabolism,inflammation,tissue repair and carcinogenesis in the body.It also reviews the screening of in vitro inhibitors of DPP4 and its research progress in regulating chronic liver disease,based on the pathological development process of chronic liver disease.

Objective:To detect the pharmacokinetic(PK)parameters of coagulation factor Ⅷ(FⅧ)in adult patients with severe hemophilia A,identify the potential factors influencing FⅧ PK,and optimize the use of FⅧ in individual prophylaxis regimens.Methods:PK characteristics of FⅧ were studied in a total of 23 severe hemophilia A adults.The correlation of patients'characteristics including age,von Willebrand factor antigen(vWF:Ag),blood group,weight,body mass index(BMI)and FⅧ genotype,with FⅧ PK were evaluated.Individual prophylaxis regimens were given based on FⅧ PK parameters.Results:The mean terminal half-life(t1/2)of FⅧ was 20.6±9.3 h,ranged from 11.47 h to 30.12 h.The age(r=0.580)and vWF:Ag(r=0.814)were significantly positively correlated with t1/2 of FⅧ.The mean area under the plasma concentration curve(AUC)of FⅧ was 913±399(328-1 878)IU h/dl,and the AUC of FⅧ was positively correlated with age(r=0.557)and vWF:Ag(r=0.784).The mean residence time(MRT)of FⅧ was 24.7±12.4(13.2-62.2)h,and the MRT of FⅧ was positively correlated with age(r=0.664)and vWF:Ag(r=0.868).The mean in vivo recovery(IVR)of FⅧ was 2.59±0.888(1.5-4.29)IU/dl per IU/kg,the mean clearance(CL)of FⅧ was 3±1.58(0.97-7.18)ml/(kg·h),and there was no significant correlation of IVR and CL with age and vWF:Ag.According to the individual PK parameters,ultra low-dose,low-dose and moderate-dose FⅧ were applied to 15,6,2 adults patients with severe hemophilia A for prophylaxis,respectively.Conclusion:There are significant individual differences in the FⅧ half-life of adult patients with severe hemophilia A.The older the patient,the higher the vWF:Ag level,and the longer the FⅧ half-life.Individual administration is required based on the FⅧ PK parameters to optimize prophylaxis treatment.

Objective:To explore whether the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) within 24 hours of intensive care unit (ICU) admission is the predictor of 28-day delirium or coma and death in etiologically diverse critically ill patients.Methods:A prospective, observational study was conducted. The critically ill patients admitted to the emergency ICU of Cangzhou Central Hospital from January 2021 to October 2022 were enrolled. Bedside ultrasound monitoring ONSD was performed within 24 hours of ICU admission. The consciousness status was assessed daily during ICU hospitalization. Coma was defined as Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score < 8 or Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS) score -4 or -5. Delirium was defined as responsiveness to verbal stimulation and with a positive confusion assessment method-intensive care unit (CAM-ICU). A positive result of CAM-ICU was defined as acute change or fluctuating course of mental status+inattention+altered level of consciousness or disorganized thinking. X-tile software analysis was used to visualize the best cut-off value for creating divisions in predicting 28-day coma or delirium and death, and then Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted. ONSD≥the optimal cut-off value from X-tile analysis was defined as ONSD broadening. ONSD broadening and related indicators were enrolled, and multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of 28-day coma or delirium and 28-day death in etiologically diverse critically ill patients.Results:A total of 321 critically ill patients were enrolled. Of them, 49 had primary brain injury, 54 had hypoxic ischemic brain injury (HIBI) after cardiac arrest, 70 had acute heart failure, 73 had sepsis, and 75 had other causes. Coma affected 184 patients (57.3%), and delirium affected 173 patients (53.9%). At 28 days of follow-up, 100 patients died, 16 patients remained comatose and 20 patients remained delirious. In all patients, as the GCS score decreased upon admission to the ICU, there was a gradually increasing trend in ONSD [GCS score 15 group: 5.20 (4.93, 5.43) mm, GCS score 10-14 group: 5.30 (4.90, 5.65) mm, GCS score 6-9 group: 5.40 (5.10, 5.80) mm, GCS score < 6 group: 5.70 (5.20, 5.96) mm, P < 0.05]. X-tile software analysis showed that in all patients and five etiological subgroups, ONSD broadening was a predictor for 28-day coma or delirium, and the optimal cut-off value was obtained (5.60 mm for all patients, 4.90 mm for primary brain injury, 5.75 mm for HIBI after cardiac arrest, 5.40 mm for acute heart failure, 5.90 mm for sepsis, and 5.75 mm for other causes). The Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted according to the optimal cut-off values, and the results showed that the higher the ONSD, the higher the incidence and duration of coma or delirium within 28 days in above patient population. X-tile software analysis showed that in all patients, and HIBI after cardiac arrest, sepsis and other causes patients, ONSD was a predictor for 28-day death, and the optimal cut-off value was obtained (6.20 mm for all patients, 5.85 mm for HIBI after cardiac arrest, 5.35 mm for sepsis, and 6.10 mm for other causes). The Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted according to the optimal cut-off values, and the results showed that the higher the ONSD, the higher the 28-day survival rate and the shorter survival duration in above patient population. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that ONSD broadening was an independent risk factor for 28-day coma or delirium in all patients [hazard ratio ( HR) = 1.513, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.093-2.095, P = 0.013] and patients with primary brain injury ( HR = 5.739, 95% CI was 2.112-15.590, P = 0.001). However, ONSD broadening was not independently associated with 28-day death in all patients or in the five etiological subgroups. Conclusions:ONSD within 24 hours of ICU admission is an independent risk factor for 28-day coma or delirium in etiologically diverse critically ill patients. It serves as a predictor for 28-day coma or delirium in 5 subgroups of etiology including primary brain injury, HIBI after cardiac arrest, acute heart failure, sepsis, and other causes, but not for 28-day death.

Objective:To evaluate the difference in efficacy between liposuction combined with single-port endoscopic subcutaneous adenomectomy and traditional open surgery in treating adolescent male breast development disorder,and to compare their effects on patients'anxiety levels and quality of life.Methods:A total of sixty-four patients with adolescent male mammary gland dysplasia who underwent surgery at our hospital between March 2022 and June 2023 were included in this retrospective analysis,with 28 cases in the open surgery group and 36 cases in the single-hole endoscopic group.The study compared various parameters including surgery duration,intraoperative bleeding,incision length,hospitalization duration,treatment cost,and postoperative complications,alongside collecting GAD-7,SF-36,and SCAR questionnaire scores from the pa-tients.Results:The single-port endoscopy group,in comparison to the open surgery group,showed a slightly longer operation time and higher treatment cost but had a shorter hospitalization duration and smaller incision.There was no significant difference observed between the two groups concerning intraoperative bleeding.Notably,the single-port endoscopy group exhibited more significant improvements in SCAR,SF-36,and GAD-7 scores(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Com-pared with traditional open surgery,liposuction combined with single-port endoscopic subcutane-ous adenomectomy is more effective in treating adolescent gynecomastia.This approach not only offers better aesthetic outcomes but also proves effective in reducing patient anxiety and signifi-cantly enhancing their quality of life.

Objective To provide references for reasonable equipping of airborne medical equipment oriented to different tasks by constructing a medical equipment requirement model for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team.Methods Relevant basic data were collected and organized on time for routine and emergency medical treatment and elementary medical equipment requirements for types of medical treatment.AnyLogic multi-agent modeling was used to established a medical equipment requirement model for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team,with the casualty,equipment and medical personnel as the agent modules and the logical relationship-based access rules between the agents.An example was taken with a Z-8 helicopter transformed into an ambulance platform to transport the rescue team and casualties,in which a variety of evacuation tasks with multi combinations of light and serious casualties were simulated and the model developed was used to record and analyze the data on waiting time for medical treatment,completion rate,personnel utilization rate and equipment requirement during 100 times of simulation flight.Results The model developed could provide generalized medical equipment allocation programs for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team to complete a variety of evacuation tasks in terms of electronic device,treatment equipment,auxiliary instrument and medical consumables.Conclusion The model developed facilitates rational allocation of medical equipment for the helicopter evacuation and rescue team.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(5):28-33]

Objective To investigate the risk factors for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks,and to provide a basis for early identification of BPD in twin preterm infants in clinical practice.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks who were admitted to 22 hospitals nationwide from January 2018 to December 2020.According to their conditions,they were divided into group A(both twins had BPD),group B(only one twin had BPD),and group C(neither twin had BPD).The risk factors for BPD in twin preterm infants were analyzed.Further analysis was conducted on group B to investigate the postnatal risk factors for BPD within twins.Results A total of 904 pairs of twins with a gestational age of<34 weeks were included in this study.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with group C,birth weight discordance of>25%between the twins was an independent risk factor for BPD in one of the twins(OR=3.370,95%CI:1.500-7.568,P<0.05),and high gestational age at birth was a protective factor against BPD(P<0.05).The conditional logistic regression analysis of group B showed that small-for-gestational-age(SGA)birth was an independent risk factor for BPD in individual twins(OR=5.017,95%CI:1.040-24.190,P<0.05).Conclusions The development of BPD in twin preterm infants is associated with gestational age,birth weight discordance between the twins,and SGA birth.

Objective:To study the epidemiological characteristics of mortality and cause of death composition in patients with coal-burning-borne endemic arsenism in Ankang City, Shaanxi Province.Methods:Mortality data of patients with coal-burning-borne endemic arsenism in Ankang City from 2018 to 2023 were collected from the Shaanxi Provincial Endemic Disease Prevention and Control Information Management Platform and the National Death Cause Information Registration System. Crude and standardized mortality rates, years of life lost (YLL) due to premature death were calculated, and the population and regional distribution characteristics of death cases were analyzed. Causes of death were classified and analyzed according to the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) category codes.Results:From 2018 to 2023, a total of 610 patients with coal-burning-borne endemic arsenism died in Ankang City, Shaanxi Province. The average annual crude mortality rate was 5.20/100 000. The average age of death for patients was 77.78 years old, and the mortality rate showed an upward trend with age (χ 2tend = 1 163.82, P < 0.001), with a significant increase in patients over 60 years old. The male to female ratio was 3.18∶1.00 (464/146). Among the seven diseased districts and counties, Langao County had the highest mortality rate. The YLL was 6 241.68 person-years. The top four causes of death among these cases circulatory system diseases, respiratory system diseases, malignant tumors, and injuries differed from those of the entire population in Ankang City, with respiratory system diseases being more prominently ranked. Conclusions:The death cases of coal-burning-borne endemic arsenism in Ankang City are mainly elderly males, and are more common in Langao County. There are various causes of death, coexisting with circulatory system diseases, respiratory system diseases, malignant tumors, and injuries.
