Autoimmune hepatitis （AIH） is an immune-mediated chronic liver inflammatory disease with unknown pathogenesis， and intestinal barrier dysfunction is considered an important factor. Meanwhile， there are sex and age differences in the incidence rate of AIH， suggesting that hormone may be involved in regulation. On this basis， this article focuses on the association between estrogen， intestinal barrier， and immune homeostasis， systematically reviews the evidence that estrogen deficiency disrupts intestinal barrier homeostasis， and further summarizes the potential mechanism of estrogen in regulating the development and progression of AIH via intestinal barrier.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of trans-nasal humidified rapid insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) on the early postoperative atelectasis in patients undergoing prolonged non-intubated intravenous anesthesia for gastrointestinal endoscopic procedures.Methods:In this randomized double-blind controlled trial, 150 patients of either sex, aged 18-80 yr, with American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ and body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, scheduled for endoscopic mucosal resection of multiple colorectal polyps at Northern Jiangsu People′s Hospital Affiliated to Yangzhou University from February 18 to June 15, 2024, were divided into 2 groups ( n=75 each) using simple random allocation: THRIVE group (group T) and conventional oxygen therapy group (group C). In group T, the oxygen flow rate was 10 L/min before anesthesia induction and increased to 50 L/min after induction until the end of operation, and the inhaled oxygen concentration was 100%. Group C used conventional mask oxygen inhalation, with an oxygen flow rate of 10 L/min during anesthesia induction and maintenance. Lung ultrasonography was performed immediately before anesthesia induction and after the end of surgery, and the modified lung ultrasound score and diaphragm mobility during quiet breathing were recorded to assess the occurrence of atelectasis and diaphragmatic dysfunction. The lowest intraoperative SpO 2 value, adverse events during surgery and in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU), duration of PACU stay, adverse events within 7 days after operation, hospitalization duration, and satisfaction scores of both patients and endoscopists were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the postoperative modified lung ultrasound score and incidence of atelectasis and diaphragmatic dysfunction were significantly decreased, the lowest intraoperative SpO 2 value was increased, the incidence of hypoxemia was decreased, the duration of PACU stay was shortened, and endoscopists′ satisfaction scores were increased ( P<0.05), and no statistically significant changes were observed in diaphragm mobility, incidence of other intraoperative adverse events, incidence of adverse events during PACU stay and within 7 days after operation, or patients′ satisfaction scores in group T ( P>0.05). Conclusions:THRIVE can reduce the risk of early postoperative atelectasis and intraoperative hypoxemia, thereby promoting postoperative recovery of patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy under long-term non-intubated anesthesia.

Getah virus(GETV)is an arbovirus capable of infecting humans and vertebrates such as horses and pigs via blood-sucking mosquitoes,which is extremely harmful to the livestock indus-try.Current monitoring methods are time-consuming,costly,and dependent on specialized instru-ments.These characteristics hinder rapid detection in clinical samples.Therefore,the development of a simple,rapid,specific,and sensitive method for detecting GETV antigen is crucial for the pre-vention and control of GETV.In this study,a GETV E1 monoclonal antibody strain SD17/09-E1-mAb was prepared by a prokaryotic expression system for GETV E1 protein expression,and a col-loidal gold double-antibody sandwich assay encapsulating two strains of GETV E1 monoclonal an-tibody wasestablished.The results showed that the prepared colloidal gold test strips had good sen-sitivity and did not cross-react with other common porcine virus-positive tissue samples;the test strips had a high compliance rate with the IFA assay for GETV,and could be stored at 37 ℃ for one month and at room temperature for at least three months.In this study,a colloidal gold anti-surveillance test strip for rapid detection of GETV was successfully prepared,which provides a powerful tool for GETV detection.

Objective To explore the effect of the pneumatic and electric hand training system with multiple sensory stimulation mo-dalities combined with low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on hand movement and tactile pressure sensation in patients with stroke.Methods From May,2023 to October,2024,62 stroke patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of University of South China were randomly divided into control group(n=31)and experimental group(n=31).Both groups received conventional rehabilitation,and 1 Hz low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in the primary cerebral motor cortex on the unaffected side,while the experimental group received the pneumatic and electric hand training system with multiple sensory stimulation modalities in addition,for four weeks.They were as-sessed with Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities(FMA-UE),Motor Assessment Scale(MAS),Semmes Weinstein Monofilament Test(SWMT)and modified Barthel index(MBI)before and after treatment.Results One case dropped out in control group and one in the experimental group.After treatment,the scores of FMA-UE,MAS,SWMT and MBI increased in both groups(|t|>5.464,P<0.001),expect the score of SWMT in the control group(P>0.05),and all scores were better in the experimental group than in the control group(|t|>2.195,P<0.05).Conclusion The pneumatic and electric hand training system with multiple sensory stimulation modalities combined with low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation can improve the motor and tactile pressure func-tion of stroke patients,and improve their activity of daily living.

Ochratoxin A (OTA) is ubiquitous in the food and feed fields. It has strong hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity, seriously threatening the health of humans and animals. Enzymatic degradation of mycotoxins is considered to be a promising method to control mycotoxin contaminations. In this study, a new ochratoxin A amidohydrolase from Microbulbifer thermotolerans (MiADH) was obtained. After heterologous expression in Escherichia coli and purification, the recombinant protein was studied regarding the hydrolysis activity, hydrolysis products, enzymatic properties, and substrate binding mode. MiADH can degrade OTA into ochratoxin α (OTα) and phenylalanine, demonstrating a detoxifying ability. It demonstrated the best performance at 70 ℃ and pH 8.0, and Cu²⁺ had the strongest inhibitory effect on the activity of MiADH. MiADH with good thermal stability exhibited huge potential for industrial application. Rational design guided by three-dimensional structural models and substrate docking analysis revealed the important amino acids affecting substrate binding and obtained multiple mutants with improved activity. Among these mutants, V324A had the highest activity, which was 4.2-fold that of the wild type. The identification of MiADH enriches the ochratoxin A degradation enzyme library and provides a new candidate enzyme for the biological detoxification of ochratoxin A in the food and feed industry.

Objective To analyze the levels of serum solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11)and platelet-derived growth factor BB(PDGFBB)in children with bronchial asthma and their correlations with disease severity.Methods A total of 80 children with acute asthma were en-rolled in acute asthma group,and divided into severe asthma group(40 cases)and mild asthma group(40 cases)according to severity of the disease.Additionally,80 children with asthma in re-mission during the same period were enrolled in remission group,and 80 healthy children undergoing physical examination during the same period were enrolled in control group.Enzyme-linked immu-nosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the levels of serum SLC7A11 and PDGFBB in children from each group.Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to assess the correlation between serum levels of SLC7A11 and PDGFBB and lung function indicators[peak expiratory flow(PEF)and forced expiratory volume in one second as percentage of predicted(FEV1％pred)]in asthmatic children.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the relationships ofn ser-um levels of SLC7A11 and PDGFBB with disease severity in asthmatic children.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of serum SLC7A11 and PDGFBB levels for severe asthma.Results The serum SLC7A11 levels and PEF,FEV1％pred in the acute asthma group were lower than those in the remission group and control group,while the PDGFBB levels were higher than those in the remission group and control group(P＜0.05).The serum SLC7A11 levels and PEF,FEV1％pred in the remission group were lower than those in the con-trol group,while the PDGFBB levels were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The ser-um SLC7A11 levels in asthmatic children were positively correlated with PEF and FEV1％pred(P＜0.05),while the serum PDGFBB levels were negatively correlated with PEF and FEV1％pred(P＜0.05).The serum SLC7A11 levels and PEF,FEV1％pred in the severe asthma group were lower than those in the mild asthma group,while the PDGFBB levels were higher than those in the mild asthma group(P＜0.05).High PEF,high FEV1％pred,and high SLC7A11 were independent protective factors for severe asthma(P＜0.05),while high PDGFBB was an independent risk factor(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve for the combined diagnosis of severe asthma using ser-um SLC7A11 and PDGFBB levels was 0.851,significantly larger than the areas under the ROC curves for the individual diagnosis using SLC7A11(0.790)and PDGFBB(0.785)alone(P＜0.05).Conclusion Decreased serum SLC7A11 levels and increased serum PDGFBB levels in asthmatic children are closely related to decreased lung function and increased disease severity.The combined detection of these two biomarkers has high diagnostic value for severe asthma.
