Objective To investigate the effect of berberine and its mechanism in delaying silica-induced lung injury via network pharmacology and molecular docking, followed by verification with animal experiments. Methods i) Targets of berberine and silicosis were obtained from multiple databases, and the common targets were identified. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using the STRING database, and Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses were performed on the common targets via the DAVID database. Molecular docking was conducted using AutoDock software for validation. ii) Specific pathogen-free Wistar rats were randomly divided into five groups, with six rats in each group. Rats in the model group, pirfenidone group, and low- and high-dose berberine groups received a single non-exposure intratracheal instillation of 1.00 mL silica suspension at a mass concentration of 100 g/L, whereas rats in the control group received an equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution. Rats in the pirfenidone group were administered with pirfenidone solution at a dose of 100 mg/kg body weight, and rats in the low- and high-dose berberine groups were administered with berberine solutions at doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg body weight, respectively. The remaining two groups received equal volumes of 0.9% sodium chloride solution. All treatments were administered by gavage once daily for 28 consecutive days from 24 hours after silica exposure. After intervention, rats in each group were sacrificed. Histopathological changes in lung tissues were observed, and the lung organ coefficient was detected. Serum malondialdehyde (MDA) was detected by colorimetry. Serum inflammatory cytokine were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression of fibrosis markers in lung tissues was detected by immunohistochemistry. The protein expression of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K), protein kinase B (AKT), and phosphorylated AKT (p-AKT) in lung tissues was determined by Western blot. Results i) Network pharmacology analysis identified 46 potential targets. The core targets included AKT1, tumor protein p53, caspase-3, matrix metalloproteinase-9, and albumin. GO enrichment analysis revealed that the targets related to the anti-fibrotic effect of berberine against silicosis were mainly enriched in biological processes including signal transduction, negative regulation of apoptosis, extracellular matrix degradation, and response to reactive oxygen species. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that berberine exerted anti-silicosis effects through multiple signaling pathways, such as the PI3K/AKT pathway, hypoxia-inducible factor-1 pathway, and advanced glycation end product (AGE)-receptor for AGE pathway. ii) Histopathological examination revealed that rats in the model group presented typical pulmonary fibrotic lesions. Pathological lung injury of rats was alleviated in all three intervention groups (pirfenidone group, low- and high-dose berberine group) compared with the model group. The improvement in the high-dose berberine group was superior to that in the low-dose berberine group and was comparable with that in the pirfenidone group. rats in the model group showed increased lung organ coefficient, serum MDA, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) (all P<0.05), as well as increased expression of typeⅠcollagen (COLⅠ), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and PI3K, and p-AKT/AKT ratio in lung tissues (all P<0.05) when compared with the control group. The above indicators were lower in rats in both the low- and high-dose berberine groups than those in the model group (all P<0.05). Serum MDA, IL-1β, and TNF-α, as well as relative expression of COLⅠ and α-SMA in lung tissues, were lower in the high-dose berberine group than in the low-dose berberine group (all P<0.05). Conclusion Berberine may alleviate pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis in rats through regulation of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway, thereby delaying the progression of silicosis.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of three-dimensional(3D) printing-assisted fenestrated/branched endovascular aortic repair (F/B-TEVAR) for the treatment of endoleak after open surgery for type A aortic dissection.Methods:A multi-center retrospective case series analysis was conducted on 16 patients with anastomotic leakage following Stanford type A aortic dissection open repair, admitted to 12 medical centers between January 2019 and December 2023. All surgeries were led by the vascular surgery team from Department of Vascular Surgery, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital. The study included 12 males and 4 females, with an age of (58.1±8.2) years (range: 42 to 75 years). Preoperative patient-specific 3D-printed models or 3D parametric surface topological guides were created based on aortic CT angiography data. These models assisted intraoperative external positioning of fenestration sites, combined with stent diameter selection and inner branch techniques to complete endovascular repair. Surgical procedures, complications, and clinical outcomes were evaluated, with follow-up CT imaging to assess efficacy.Results:All patients successfully underwent surgery without conversion to open repair. One patient had distal stent migration from a prior open repair, requiring intraoperative coverage of the main stent window and conversion to an in situ fenestration procedure. The mean operative time was (332.6±111.2)minutes (range: 80 to 460 minutes). No renal failure, paraplegia, or branch artery loss occurred. Postoperative follow-up ( M(IQR)) was 18(18) months(range: 6 to 36 months), with follow-up rates of 16/16 at 6 months, 10/16 at 12 months, 8/16 at 24 months, and 2/16 at 36 months. During follow-up, endoleak occurred in 3 patients, cerebral infarction in 1 patient, and death in 1 patient. The remaining patients demonstrated stable stent positioning, patent branches, and no endoleak. Conclusion:3D technology-guided F/B-TEVAR shows favorable mid-to short-term outcomes in treating anastomotic leakage after open repair of type A aortic dissection.

This study investigated the prevalence and potential mechanisms of gentamicin heterore-sistance in Streptococcus isolates from dairy cows.In this study,A total of 39 Streptococcus isola-ted from raw milk were collected,and the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)of gentamicin and other drugs on the isolates was determined by micro broth dilution method,and the K-B paper diffusion method,colony analysis profile(PAP),and resistance stability test were used to investigate the heteroresistance characteristics of Streptococcus,and the mechanism of heteroresis-tance was analyzed based on whole genome sequencing and resequencing.Seven suspected heterore-sistance strains were identified by K-B paper diffusion method,accounting for 17.95％(7/39)of the total number of suspected strains.PAP confirmed that the MIC to MNIC ratio of L147,L108 and L174 was greater than 8,and the frequency of resistant subgroups ranged from 1.38×10-5 to 8.18 × 10-5,which was greater than 1 × 10-7,confirming that they were heteroresistance strains.Resistance stability tests revealed that the resistant subpopulations of all three strains were not stably inherited.Whole-genome sequencing revealed mutations in the ribosomal target genes of aminoglycoside antibiotics,rsmA,rsmB and rsmE,compared with the reference genome,which may lead to heteroresistance to gentamicin in Streptococcus.The occurrence of heteroresistance of Streptococcus to gentamicin is high in dairy sources,so more attention should be paid to the occur-rence of heteroresistance when using gentamicin for clinical treatment.

Objective:To assess the relationship between basophil levels and mortality in patients with intra-abdominal infection.Methods:Information on patients with intraperitoneal infection admitted to the intensive care unit were extracted from the MIMIC database.A time-dependent Cox regression model was used to adjust for confounders associated with 28-day mortality.Propensity score matching(PSM)was used to balance the baseline differences be-tween groups with different basophil levels,and a restricted cube chart(RCS)was used to show the relationship between basophil count and 28-day mortality in patients with intra-abdominal infection.Results:A total of 4403 patients with intra-abdominal infection were enrolled in the MIMIC database.Patients with high basophil levels have lower mortality than those with low basophil levels.There was an L-shaped curve between basophil level and 28-day mortality,with a cut-off value of 0.47×109/L.Cox regression analysis showed that basophil levels were an independent protective factor for mortal-ity in patients with intra-abdominal infection after adjusting for potential confounders(HR=0.586,95%CI:0.443-0.769).Protective factors for death at basophil levels remained after PSM adjusted for potential confounders(HR=0.628,95%CI:0.470-0.832).Conclusion:Basophil level is an independent protective factor for mortality in patients with intra-abdominal infection,and basophil levels should be dynamically monitored to better evaluate the prognosis of patients.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.
