OBJECTIVE: To investigate the short-term effectiveness of uni-portal non-coaxial spinal endoscopic surgery (UNSES) via crossing midline approach (CMA) in the treatment of free lumbar disc herniation (FLDH). METHODS: Between March 2024 and June 2024, 16 patients with FLDH were admitted and treated with UNSES via CMA. There were 9 males and 7 females with an average age of 55.1 years (range, 47-62 years). The disease duration was 8-30 months (mean, 15.6 months). The pathological segments was L _{3, 4} in 4 cases, L _{4, 5} in 5 cases, and L ₅, S ₁ in 7 cases. The preoperative pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score was 6.9±0.9 and the Oswestry disability index (ODI) was 57.22%±4.16%. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative hospital stay, and incidence of complications were recorded. The spinal pain and functional status were evaluated by VAS score and ODI, and effectiveness was evaluated according to the modified MacNab criteria. CT and MRI were used to evaluate the effect of nerve decompression. RESULTS: All 16 patients underwent operation successfully without any complications. The operation time was 63-81 minutes (mean, 71.0 minutes). The intraoperative bleeding volume was 47.3-59.0 mL (mean, 55.0 mL). The length of hospital stay after operation was 3-4 days (mean, 3.5 days). All patients were followed up 1-3 months, with 15 cases followed up for 2 months and 14 cases for 3 months. The VAS score and ODI gradually decreased over time after operation, and there were significant differences between different time points ( P<0.05). At 3 months after operation, the effectiveness was rated as excellent in 12 cases and good in 2 cases according to the modified MacNab criteria, with an excellent and good rate of 100%. CT and MRI during follow-up showed a significant increase in the diameter and cross-sectional area of the spinal canal, indicating effective decompression of the canal. CONCLUSION When using UNSES to treat FLDH, choosing CMA for nerve decompression has the advantages of wide decompression range, large operating space, and freedom of operation. It can maximize the preservation of the articular process, avoid fracture and breakage of the isthmus, clearly display the exiting and traversing nerve root, and achieve good short-term effectiveness.

OBJECTIVE To study the improvement effects of poria acid on insulin resistance in rats with polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS） and its mechanism. METHODS One hundred and twenty-six female rats were randomly separated into blank group， PCOS group， poria acid low-dose group （8.33 mg/kg）， pachymic acid high-dose group （33.32 mg/kg）， ethinylestradiol cyproterone group （positive control group， 0.34 mg/kg）， recombinant rat high mobility group protein B1 protein （rHMGB1） group （8 μg/kg）， and poria acid high dose+rHMGB1 group （33.32 mg/kg poria acid+8 μg/kg rHMGB1）， with 18 rats in each group. Except for the blank group， the rats in all other groups were given Letrozole suspension intragastrically to construct the PCOS model. After successful modeling， administration was performed once a day for 4 weeks. After medication， the fasting blood glucose and fasting insulin levels， and insulin resistance index （HOMA-IR） were measured in rats； the levels of follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH） and testosterone （T） in rat serum， and the levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β） and tumor necrosis factor- α （TNF- α） in ovarian tissue were detected； ovarian coefficients of rats were calculated； the pathological changes of ovarian tissue were observed； the expressions of HMGB1， receptor for advanced glycosylation elaine_ tanghong@sina.com end product （RAGE） and phosphorylated nuclear factor κB p65 （p-NF-κB p65） proteins were determined in ovarian tissue of rats. RESULTS Compared with the blank group， the pathological injury of ovarian tissue of rats in the PCOS group was serious， the levels of fasting blood glucose and fasting insulin， HOMA-IR and ovarian coefficient were increased， the levels of serum LH and T were increased， while the levels of FSH were decreased； the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α， the expressions of HMGB1， RAGE and p-NF-κB p65 protein in ovarian tissue were increased， with statistical significance （P＜0.05）. Compared with the PCOS group， pathological damage of ovarian tissue was reduced in poria acid low-dose and high-dose groups and ethinylestradiol cyproterone group， and fasting blood glucose， fasting insulin levels， HOMA-IR and ovarian coefficient were decreased； serum LH and T levels were decreased， while FSH levels were increased； the levels of IL-1β and TNF-α and the expressions of HMGB1， RAGE and p-NF-κB p65 protein in ovarian tissue were decreased， with statistical significance （P＜0.05）. The trend of corresponding indexes in rHMGB1 group was opposite to the above （P＜0.05）. Compared with poria acid high-dose group， the changes of the above indexes were reversed significantly in poria acid high-dose+rHMGB1 group （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Poria acid may improve insulin resistance and inhibit inflammatory reaction in PCOS rats by inhibiting HMGB1/ RAGE pathway.

AIM:To investigate the effects of saponin from Panax japonicus IVa(SPJ IVa)on acute lung inju-ry in rats and to explore its possible protective mechanism.METHODS:Sixty SD rats were randomly divided into four groups,15 rats in each group:the control group,model group,low-dose SPJ IVa group,and high-dose SPJ IVa group.A rat model of ALI was established via intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide(LPS,2 mg/kg).Rats in the low-and high-dose SPJ IVa groups were intraperitoneally injected with 15 and 45 mg/kg SPJ IVa,respectively,30 min after model-ing.Serum,bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF),and lungs were collected 24 h after modeling.Pathomorphological changes in lung tissues were assessed using HE staining.The wet weight/dry weight ratio of lung tissues was measured us-ing the weighing method,whereas ELISA was used to measure the levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),IL-6,and tumor ne-crosis factor-α(TNF-α)in the serum and BALF.The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and glutathione(GSH)were assessed using the kit method.Cell apoptosis in lung tissues was evaluated by immunohisto-chemical staining of cleaved caspase-3 and TUNEL.Western blot was used to measure the expression of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(Nrf2),heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)p65,and Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)in lung tissues.RESULTS:Compared with control group,the lung tissues of the model group were significantly damaged,and the lung injury scores(0.21±0.22 vs 2.98±0.46)and lung wet/dry weight ratios(3.09±0.41 vs 6.36±0.61)were significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with model group,the lung injury scores(1.80±0.31 and 1.05±0.25 vs 2.98±0.46)and lung wet/dry weight ratios(5.25±0.44 and 3.89±0.35 vs 6.36±0.61)in low-and high-dose SPJ IVa groups were significantly reduced(P<0.01).The administration of LPS resulted in elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cy-tokines(IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α)as well as the oxidative marker MDA in both serum and BALF(P<0.01).Additional-ly,it led to a decrease in antioxidant markers SOD and GSH(P<0.01).However,treatment with both low and high doses of SPJ IVa effectively attenuated the LPS-induced production of pro-inflammatory factors and oxidative markers MDA(P<0.01),while also increasing SOD and GSH levels(P<0.05 or P<0.01).In the model group,evident apoptosis was ob-served in lung tissues,whereas treatment with low and high doses of SPJ IVa significantly suppressed TUNEL-positive cells and the expression of cleaved caspase-3(P<0.01).The expression levels of Nrf2,HO-1,NF-κB p65,and TLR4 in lung tissues were significantly higher in the model group than in the control group(P<0.01);in turn,after treatment with low and high doses of SPJ IVa,Nrf2 and HO-1 were further upregulated(P<0.01),whereas NF-κB p65 and TLR4 were downregulated(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:The inhibitory effect of SPJ IVa on LPS-induced ALI in rats may be attribut-ed to its ability to suppress the TLR4/NF-κB-and Nrf2/HO-1-mediated inflammatory response and oxidative stress.

Objective Visual electrophysiology and optical correlation tomography angiography(OCTA)were used to investigate differences in preoperative retinal function in patients with type 2 diabetic cataract(DC)without obvious retinopathy(NDR)and to determine the clinical application of whole-process blood glucose man-agement(WBGM)for improving postoperative vision in DC patients.Methods This study investigated the preop-erative and postoperative visual electrophysiology(N75,P100,photopic FERG,and scotopic FERG),peripapil-lary retinal nerve fiber layer(pRNFL)and peripapillary capillary vessel density(ppVD)data,as well as trends in these data changes during blood glucose management intervention.Results As the course of T2DM progressed,FBG and HbA1c increased,the N75 and P100 lategraduancy periods of patients gradually lengthened,and the photopic FERG,scotopic FERG,pRNFL,and ppVD values decreased at each postoperative time point.At the same time,the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)of patients after surgery gradually decreased(P<0.05).Compared with that at 1 week after surgery,the BCVA of Group A(without whole-process blood glucose manage-ment)gradually increased at 1 month and 3 months after surgery but showed a downward trend at 1 year after sur-gery.The BCVA of Group B(with whole-process blood glucose management)gradually stabilized at 1 month after surgery,and at all time points after surgery,the BCVA of Group B was better than that of Group A.The results showed that N75 and P100 in Group A were greater than those in Group B,while the photopic and scotopic FERG,pRNFL,and ppVD(%)in Group A were lower than those in Group B.In addition,N75 and P100 in Group A showed a gradual prolongation trend at various time points after surgery,while photopic FERG,scotopic FERG,pRNFL,and ppVD(%)showed a gradually decreasing trend.However,the above data in Group B gradu-ally stabilized at 3 months after DC surgery,approaching the preoperative level of the group(P<0.05).In the state of whole blood glucose management,although N75 and P100 both reached their longest durations at 1 week af-ter surgery,N75,P100,photopic FERG,scotopic FERG,and pRNFL showed a gradually decreasing trend at 1 month and 3 months after surgery,while ppVD(%)gradually increased(P<0.05).At various time points from 3 months to 1 year after surgery,the overall trend of the above indicators remained stable and close to the preoperative values(P>0.05).Conclusion According to the results of the quantitative analysis of visual electrophysiology and OCTA,in DC patients without obvious retinopathy and with the worsening of diabetes,retinal function decreased,but whole-process blood glucose management effectively restored retinal function and improved visual quality after surgery.

Objective To establish a palmitic acid(PA)-induced model of lipotoxic bone formation inhibition in zebrafish.Methods AB strain zebrafish embryos were divided randomly into a blank control group,PA group,and simvastatin(SIM)group.Embryos in the PA and SIM groups received PA from 3 days post-fertilization(dpf),and embryos in the SIM group received SIM continuously for 4 days from 5 dpf.Establishment of the model was confirmed at 9 dpf by calcein staining,Nile red staining,triglyceride and total cholesterol content determination,and q-PCR.Results PA significantly decreased the number of vertebrae,promoted lipid accumulation,increased triglyceride and total cholesterol contents,promoted the expression of lipid-related genes PPARγ、c/EBPα,and inhibited the expression of osteogenic genes ALP and RUNX2.SIM improved the inhibitory effect of PA on bone formation in zebrafish.Conclusions PA can successfully create a lipotoxic model of bone-formation inhibition,similar to the pathological process of osteoporosis,using a simple,sensitive,and controllable method.This model can then be used for drug screening for osteoporosis and related diseases.
