Objective To investigate the effect of intravenous lidocaine on postoperative fatigue syndrome(POFS)in patients undergoing laparoscopic resection for gastric carcinoma.Methods A total of 80 patients who underwent elective laparoscopic resection for gastric carcinoma at Xuzhou Central Hospital between September 2023 and June 2024 were enrolled.Inclusion criteria included age 18～75 years,ASA physical status classificationⅠ～Ⅲ,body mass index(BMI)of 18.5～27.9 kg/m2,preoperative Christensen score≤4,and estimated operation time≤4 hours.Patients were randomly allocated into either the lidocaine group(Group L)or the saline group(Group C)using a random number table,with 40 patients in each group.Group L received an intravenous infusion of lidocaine at a dose of 1.5 mg·kg?1 over 15 minutes,initiated 30 minutes before anesthesia induction.If no adverse reactions occurred,lidocaine was maintained at a rate of 1.5 mg/(kg·h)throughout the surgery until its conclusion.Group C received an equivalent volume of normal saline administered in the same manner.The Christensen score and Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)scores were recorded on postoperative days 1,3,5,and 7,and the time-weighted average(TWA)of the Christensen score was calculated.Postoperative inflammatory markers were measured,and additional outcomes including extubation time,post-anesthesia care unit(PACU)stay duration,postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV),consumption of rescue analgesics,time to first flatus and defecation,and length of hospital stay were also documented.Results Compared with Group C,the TWA of the Christensen score in Group L decreased by 0.44 points(95％CI:0.11～0.76;P<0.05).The VAS scores were significantly lower in Group L on postoperative days 1 and 3(P<0.05).Levels of IL-6 and TNF-α at the end of surgery and 24 hours after surgery were also lower in Group L(P<0.05).The time to first flatus and defecation was significantly shorter in Group L(P<0.05).There were no significant differences between the two groups regarding extubation time,PACU stay duration,incidence of PONV,postoperative consumption of remedial analgesic drugs,or length of hospital stay(P>0.05).Conclusion Intravenous lidocaine may improve POFS in patients following laparo-scopic resection for gastric carcinoma by attenuating inflammatory responses,alleviating pain,and facilitating gastrointestinal function recovery,while maintaining a favorable safety profile.

Objective The study aimed to investigate whether montelukast sodium could alleviate airway inflammatory responses in asthmatic mice by affecting the PHD2/HIF-1α pathway.Methods An allergic asthma model was established by ovalbumin(OVA)induction,and 18 female BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a control group(Con group),an asthma group(OVA group),and an asthma group with montelukast sodium intervention(30 mg/kg montelukast sodium by oral administration 1 h before OVA challenge,Mon group).HE staining was used to analyze the pathological changes in the lungs of mice.Blood cell analyzer and kits were used to determine the number of inflammatory cells and the levels of cytokines,the content of lactic acid and pyruvic acid in the lungs,respectively.RT-PCR and Western blot were used to detect the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α,PHD2,E-cad and p120 in the lungs of mice.Results Compared with the Con group,there was a significant increase in the number of eosinophils,lymphocytes,neutrophils and monocytes,the levels of IL-5,IL-13,complement factor D(CFD)and contents of lactate and pyruvate in the lungs of mice in the OVA group.Lung HIF-1α,PHD2,p120 and E-cad mRNA levels were reduced,meanwhile HIF-1α and PHD2 protein expression were upregulated but E-cad and p120 protein expression were downregulated(all with P<0.05).After montelukast sodium intervention,the number of eosinophils and monocytes and CFD expression were significantly decreased in the lungs of Mon group,the contents of lactate and pyruvate were basically restored to normal,and the mRNA and protein expression of HIF-1α,PHD2,p120 and E-cad were effectively improved.Conclusion Montelukast sodium could alleviate the airway inflammatory responses in the lungs of asthmatic mice by regulating the PHD2/HIF-1α signaling pathway.

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV)mainly causes sow abor-tion,stillbirth,mummified fetus and respiratory symptoms in piglets.Since first reported in China in 1996,the virus complexity has increased significantly in more than 20 years of genetic evolution,bringing huge economic losses to the pig industry.In recent years,with the emergence of various PRRSV recombinant virus strains,preventing and controlling this epidemic became increasingly difficult.The purpose of this article is to comprehensively review the genome structure and func-tion of PRRSV,RNA virus recombination mechanism,main types of recombination,and the epi-demic status and recombination for the dominant epidemic PRRSV strains,in order to provide clues for in-depth research on gene recombination of PRRSV,thus providing the theoretical sup-port for formulating scientific prevention and control strategies.

Objective:To evaluate the role of the TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1)/receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) signaling pathway in postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in aged mice.Methods:Fifty SPF healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 18 months, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 5 groups ( n=10 each) using a table of random numbers: control group (group C), POCD group, dimethyl sulfoxide group, GSK group and GSK+ Nec-1 group. A mouse model of POCD was established by the closed reduction internal fixation of the left tibial fracture in anesthetized animals. Dimethyl sulfoxide, TBK1 inhibitor GSK8612 and RIPK1 inhibitor Nec-1 (0.5 μl/side) were stereotactically injected into the hippocampal CA1 region at 30 min before operation. Cognitive function was assessed using the contextual fear conditioning test before operation and at 3 days after operation. The mice were then anesthetized and sacrificed, and the hippocampal tissues were obtained for determination of the expression of TBK1, RIPK1, interleukin-lbeta (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), activator protein 1 (AP-1) and Nestin (by Western blot), the expression of Bcl-2, Bax and caspase-3 mRNA (by fluorescent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and for examination of TBK1/RIPK1 molecular interactions and neural stem cell proliferation in the hippocampal dentate gyrus (DG) region (by immunofluorescent staining). Results:Compared with C group, the percentage of freezing time was significantly decreased at 3 days after operation, the expression of Bax mRNA, caspase-3 mRNA, RIPK1, IL-1β, TNF-α and AP-1 was up-regulated, the expression of TBK1, Bcl-2 mRNA and Nestin was down-regulated, and the proliferation of neural stem cells in the hippocampal DG region was decreased in POCD group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Compared with POCD group, the percentage of freezing time was significantly decreased at 3 days after operation, the expression of Bax mRNA, caspase-3 mRNA, IL-1β, TNF-α and AP-1 was up-regulated, the expression of TBK1, Bcl-2 mRNA and Nestin was down-regulated, and the proliferation of neural stem cells in the hippocampal DG region was decreased in GSK group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Compared with GSK group, the percentage of freezing time was significantly increased at 3 days after operation, the expression of Bax mRNA, caspase-3 mRNA, IL-1β, TNF-α and AP-1 was down-regulated, the expression of TBK1, Bcl-2 mRNA and Nestin was up-regulated, and the proliferation of neural stem cells in the hippocampal DG region was increased in GSK+ Nec-1 group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions:The TBK1/RIPK1 signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of POCD in aged mice.

Objective:To evaluate the prognosis of Hall technique and traditional performed metal crown (PMC) restoration technique, and to follow up the occlusal changes before and after treatment with Hall technique, providing references for the promotion of Hall technique.Methods:Children who visited the Department of Pediatric Dentistry, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University from May 2021 to December 2022 were screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The therapeutic effects of the two groups were followed up at three time points: 1, 2 and 3 months after operation. The observation results were divided into three outcomes: success (crown in place, no symptoms of pulpitis or periapical periodontitis, no obvious abnormality in occlusion, no need for further treatment), partial failure (crown falling off or crown broken, tooth defect can be repaired, reversible pulpitis) and complete failure (irreversible pulpitis or periapical periodontitis, crown falling off and tooth defect irreparable), and statistical analysis was made. At the same time, the Hall technique group was followed up at five time points as before operation, immediately after operation, 2 weeks after operation, 4 weeks after operation and 8 weeks after operation respectively, in which the occlusion was analyzed by Dental Prescale Ⅱ system. The vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), overbite and coverage, and canine relationship were recorded and compared. Three-dimensional finite element method was used to model and analyze the stress of the teeth treated with traditional PMC treatment and Hall technique, and the differences between them were compared.Results:Finally, 21 children were included in the Hall technique group, including 12 boys and 9 girls, with age of (5.0±1.4) years. Meanwhile, 22 children including 15 boys and 7 girls were in the traditional PMC group, with age of (5.1±1.3) years. There were 0 cases of complete failure and 0 cases of partial failure both in the Hall technique group and in the traditional PMC group within 1 month. There were 0 cases of complete failure and 1 case of partial failure in the Hall technique group, while 0 cases of complete failure and 0 cases of partial failure in the traditional PMC group within 2 months after operation. Hall technique group failed completely in 1 case and partially in 1 case, while the traditional pre-crown group failed completely in 0 cases and partially in 0 cases 3 months after operation. There was no significant difference in the incidence of primary index/complete failure and secondary index/partial failure between Hall technique group and traditional PMC group (all P>0.05). The occlusal area and occlusal force of children treated with Hall technique decreased immediately after operation compared with those before operation, but gradually recovered to the preoperative level at 2, 4 and 8 weeks after operation. To elaborate, the occlusal area decreased significantly from (14.79±3.55) mm 2 before operation to (10.15±3.17) mm 2 immediately after operation ( P=0.001), and recovered to (15.58±3.39) mm 2 at 8 weeks after operation ( P>0.05 compared with pre-operation). The occlusal force decreased significantly from (436.94±109.59) N before operation to (292.70±96.05) N immediately after operation ( P=0.001), and recovered to (441.86±104.31) N at 8 weeks after operation ( P>0.05 compared with pre-operation). Overbite decreased significantly from (2.54±1.05) mm before operation to (1.80±0.94) mm immediately after operation ( P=0.044) and then recovered to (2.35±1.02) mm ( P>0.05 compared with pre-operation). The coverage changed from (2.41±0.66) mm before operation to (2.27±0.61) mm immediately after operation ( P>0.05) and then recovered to (2.48±0.62) mm ( P>0.05 compared with pre-operation). The canine relationship was (3.12±0.54) mm before operation, and decreased significantly immediately after operation (2.17±0.89) mm ( P=0.001), and recovered to (3.05±0.61) mm after 8 weeks ( P>0.05 compared with pre-operation). In the three-dimensional finite element analysis, the maximum stress of all parts of the affected tooth increased immediately after Hall technique treatment, but with occlusal adjustment, the maximum stress of all parts of the affected tooth decreased, which was similar to that of the traditional metal pre-crown group. The vertical load and oblique load of pre-crown decreased from 180.11 and 496.16 MPa to 108.05 and 297.69 MPa, respectively. The vertical load and oblique load of enamel decreased from 94.83 and 255.94 MPa to 57.21 and 156.44 MPa, respectively. The vertical load and oblique load of dentin decreased from 55.19 and 124.77 MPa to 33.19 and 74.59 MPa, respectively. Conclusions:During the experimental observation period, there is no obvious difference between Hall technique and traditional PMC treatment technology in terms of post-treatment occlusion and clinical prognosis, which supports clinical application.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nebulized inhalation of recombinant human interferon (IFN) α1b injection in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) associated lower respiratory tract infections (pneumonia and bronchiolitis) in children.Methods:A randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled add-on design was used.Children with pneumonia or bronchiolitis aged 2 months to 5 years who tested positive for RSV antigen within 72 hours of onset from 30 clinical trial sites including Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between February 2021 and December 2022 were included in this study and randomly divided into 2 groups at a ratio of 1∶1 based on a stratified-block method.Both groups received basic treatments such as cough control, asthma relieving, expectorant treatment, fever reduction, oxygen therapy, etc.The experimental group received additional nebulized inhalation of IFN α1b injection at a dose of 2.0 μg/(kg·time), twice a day.The control group received nebulized inhalation of placebo twice a day.Clinical efficacy was evaluated based on indicators such as the duration of clinical symptoms and signs, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the median and 95% CI of the duration of clinical symptoms and signs.The Log-rank test was used to compared data between groups.Safety was assessed through the incidence of adverse reactions and laboratory tests, and the Chi-square test was used to analyze the difference between groups. Results:There were 123 children in the experimental group and 122 children in the control group.The median durations of all the 5 clinical symptoms and signs [including shortness of breath, wheezing, dyspnea (visible retractions), decreased transcutaneous oxygen saturation, and abnormal mental state] in the experimental group after treatment were slightly shortened than those in the control group [2.7 d(95% CI: 1.9-3.0 d)] vs.[2.9 d(95% CI: 2.6-3.6 d), P=0.027].The improvement in dyspnea (retractions) was especially pronounced in the experimental group, with a relief rate of 50.0% (0, 100%) on the first day of administration[compared with 0 (0, 50.0%) in the control group ( Z=2.002, P=0.025)].The median duration of dyspnea in the experimental group was nearly 1 day shorter than that in the control group [1.0 d(95% CI: 0.7-1.7 d) vs.1.8 d(95% CI: 1.0-2.5 d), P=0.046].There were no significant difference in hospital stay [6.0(5.0, 8.0) d vs.6.5(5.0, 8.0) d, Z=0.675, P=0.500], oxygen therapy duration [32.0(14.0, 96.3) h vs.39.0 (24.0, 83.2) h, Z=0.094, P=0.925], the recovery rate from clinical symptoms during treatment [(105/106, 99.1%) vs.(96/101, 95.0%)], and recurrence rate [(0/106, 0) vs.(2/101, 2.0%)] between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).However, the above-mentioned four indicators in the experimental group showed a trend of clinical benefits.The quantitative virus detection results showed that the RSV viral load in both groups decreased after treatment compared to before treatment.After 2 days of treatment, the decline rate of RSV viral load from the baseline was 0.90 lg copies/(mL·d) in the experimental group and 0.25 lg copies/(mL·d)in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05).Furthermore, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the 2 groups ( P>0.05).Importantly, no drug-related serious adverse reactions occurred in both groups. Conclusions:The nebulized inhalation therapy of IFN α1b demonstrates efficacy and safety in treating pediatric RSV associated lower respiratory tract infections.It particularly offers outstanding clinical therapeutic value for severe children.
