BACKGROUND:Previous studies have found that for postmenopausal osteoporosis patients,the Bushen Jianpi Formula can help regulate serum osteoclast-and osteoblast-related factors and intestinal flora levels,improve clinical symptoms of patients and further improve efficacy.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of Bushen Jianpi Formula on bone metabolism and bone microarchitecture in ovariectomized rats.METHODS:Twenty-four female SD rats were randomly divided into four groups by random number table method:sham operation group(n=6)was subjected to periovarian fat removal,and bilateral ovariectomy was performed in model group(n=6),alendronate group(n=6),and Bushen Jianpi Formula group(n=6).Five days after modeling,the Bushen Jianpi Formula group was given Bushen Jianpi Formula by intragastric administration(once a day).The alendronate sodium group was given alendronate by intragastric administration(once a week).The sham operation group and model group were given an equal volume of normal saline by intragastric administration(once a day)for 12 consecutive weeks.After intragastric administration,serum levels of procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal peptide,β-isomerized C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen degradation product,and tumor necrosis factor α were detected.The distal femur microstructure was detected by Micro-CT.The femoral tissue morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The expression of type Ⅰ collagen and tumor necrosis factorα in the femur was detected by immunohistochemical staining.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The serum ELISA test showed that compared with the sham operation group,the level of procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal peptide in the model group decreased(P＜0.05),and the levels of degradation products of β-isomerized C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen and tumor necrosis factor α increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the levels of the procollagen Ⅰ N-terminal peptide in the Bushen Jianpi Formula group and the alendronate sodium group increased(P＜0.05),and the levels of β-isomerized C-terminal telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen degradation products and tumor necrosis factor α decreased(P＜0.05).(2)Micro-CT three-dimensional reconstruction showed that compared with the sham operation group,the number of bone trabeculae in the model group was significantly reduced,the continuity was worsened,and the gaps were increased.Both alendronate sodium and Bushen Jianpi Formula had a positive improvement effect on this phenomenon.(3)Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that compared with the sham operation group,the number of bone trabeculae in the model group was reduced and the shape became thinner,and the network structure was destroyed.Compared with the model group,the number of bone trabeculae in the Bushen Jianpi Formula group and the alendronate sodium group increased,the shape became thicker,and the reticular structure was restored.(4)Immunohistochemical staining showed that compared with the sham operation group,the expression of type Ⅰ collagen was reduced and tumor necrosis factor α expression was increased in the model group.Compared with the model group,the expression of type Ⅰ collagen increased and the expression of tumor necrosis factor α decreased in the Bushen Jianpi Formula group and the alendronate sodium group.The results show that the Bushen Jianpi Formula can effectively improve bone metabolism and bone microstructure in ovariectomized rats.

BACKGROUND:The therapeutic efficacy of moderate or severe intrauterine adhesions is poor.After synechotomy,the high postoperative recurrence rate severely affects the reproductive health of women of childbearing age,which is an urgent problem to be solved in clinical practice.Perinatal mesenchymal stem cells and their combined hydrogels have unique advantages,and they have received particular attention on the treatment of intrauterine adhesions.OBJECTIVE:To summarize the research progress of perinatal mesenchymal stem cells and their combined hydrogel in the treatment of intrauterine adhesions.METHODS:Search terms were"mesenchymal stem cells,perinatal period,hydrogel,intrauterine adhesions,endometrial injury"in Chinese and English.Relative articles published from 2010 to 2024 were retrieved on PubMed,CNKI,and WanFang databases.As a result,80 articles that met the inclusion criteria were reviewed and analyzed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Similar to other sources of mesenchymal stem cells,perinatal mesenchymal stem cells have a good therapeutic effect on intrauterine adhesions,and can meet the needs of autologous and allogeneic transplantation.(2)The mechanism of perinatal mesenchymal stem cell transplantation from umbilical cord,amniotic membrane,placenta,and umbilical cord blood in the treatment of uterine adhesion involves in regulation of relative signaling pathways such as colonization and differentiation,cellular immunity,paracrine,and promoting endometrial regeneration and angiogenesis,immune regulation,anti-endometrial cell apoptosis,inhibition of epithelial-mesenchymal transition,and anti-fibrosis.(3)Perinatal mesenchymal stem cells combined with hydrogel have a synergistic effect on the treatment of intrauterine adhesions.On the basis of the effect of mesenchymal stem cells,the hydrogel also plays a role in supporting and maintaining the continuous release of mesenchymal stem cells,promoting cell migration and adhesion,which is helpful to better promote endometrial regeneration and anti-fibrosis.It is beneficial to repair the damaged endometrial,improve endometrial receptivity and fertility,and reduce the recurrence rate.(4)A few of clinical trials have initially verified the effectiveness and safety of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells or hydrogels in the treatment of intrauterine adhesions.Further studies are still needed on the interaction between perinatal mesenchymal stem cells and polymer biomaterials such as hydrogels,and other effects and molecular mechanism of combined treatment of intrauterine adhesions.

Objective To evaluate the role of distortion product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE) testing in evaluating early hearing loss among noise-exposed workers. Methods A total of 174 noise-exposed workers in a metal shipbuilding enterprise were selected as the research subjects by the convenience sampling method. Pure tone audiometry (PTA), DPOAE and the level of noise exposure were conducted on the workers. The rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between DPOAE amplitude and PTA threshold. The multilevel model was used to analyze the effects of gender, age, noise exposure intensity, cumulative noise exposure (CNE), hearing loss classification and PTA threshold on DPOAE results. Results At the frequencies of 0.50, 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 4.00, 6.00 and 8.00 kHz, the DPOAE amplitude was negatively correlated with the PTA threshold (rank correlation coefficients were -0.12, -0.48, -0.47, -0.18, -0.23, -0.44, -0.19, respectively, all P<0.01). At the most frequencies, DPOAE amplitude was negatively correlated with age and CNE (all P<0.05). The results of multilevel model analysis showed that there were significant differences in DPOAE amplitudes at certain frequencies across gender, age, noise intensity, CNE, and hearing loss classification (all P<0.05). Significant differences in DPOAE responses were found among different CNE and hearing loss groups (all P<0.01). Conclusion DPOAE testing can objectively reflect the hearing status of noise-exposed workers and could be considered for inclusion in routine hearing monitoring to facilitate early detection of noise-induced hearing loss.
