Aim To study the therapeutic effect of al-licin on senna-induced diarrhea in mice and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods Forty-eight C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into six groups:control,model,loperamide positive control group(2 mg·kg-1),allicin low-dose group(6 mg·kg-1),allicin medium-dose group(12 mg·kg-1)and allicin high-dose group(18 mg·kg-1).Except for the con-trol group,the diarrhea model was induced in the other groups by intragastric administration of senna leaf ex-tract.After drug administration,several diarrhea indi-ces were measured:the rate of loose stools,diarrhea index,accumulated frequency of loose stools at differ-ent time points within 5 hours,and small intestine pro-pelling rate.Serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were de-tected by ELISA.Serum NO content was determined u-sing the Griess method.The activities of SOD and CAT,as well as MDA content in the ileum and colon,were measured.The pathological changes and the ex-pression of mRNA related to intestinal barrier proteins in the ileum and colon were evaluated using HE stai-ning and RT-qPCR.Results Allicin improved diar-rhea symptoms in mice induced by senna leaf.It re-duced the rate of loose stools,diarrhea index,cumula-tive number of loose stools in five hours,and the intes-tinal propulsion rate.Allicin also protected the intesti-nal mucosa,decreased serum TNF-α and IL-6 levels,and lowered MDA content in the intestines.It in-creased serum NO levels and enhanced SOD and CAT activities in the intestines.Additionally,allicin upreg-ulated the mRNA expression of AQP1,AQP4,and ZO-1 in intestinal tissues.Conclusions Allicin has a significant therapeutic effect on senna-induced diarrhea in mice.The underlying molecular mechanisms may involve anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects,in-creased NO content,and upregulation of mRNA ex-pression of aquaporins and tight-junction proteins.

Heatstroke,especially in high-temperature and high-humidity environments,is a life-threatening acute heat-injury disease that seriously endangers human health.Timely and effective on-site treatment is crucial for patients'survival and prognosis.Early recognition,rapid assessment,and on-site cooling are the core of pre-hospital treatment of heatstroke.Currently,there is a lack of standardized application procedures for pre-hospital emergency care of heatstroke.Therefore,the"Expert Consensus on Pre-hospital Emergency Management of Heatstroke(2024 edition)"was initiated by the Expert Group on Heatstroke Prevention of the People's Liberation Army and developed in collaboration with experts from local pre-hospital emergency care,emergency departments,and intensive care units.This consensus focuses on heatstroke prevention,on-site and ambulance-based treatment,and early emergency room interventions,and puts forward 10 evidence-based recommendations,aiming to provide a reference for scientific and standardized pre-hospital emergency care of heatstroke.

Glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ,also known as Pompe disease,is an autosomal recessive metabolic myopathy with pulmonary hypertension as a rare complication.We reported a case of pulmonary hypertension in adult with late-onset glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ.Her arterial blood gas results indicated type Ⅱ respiratory failure,lung function indicated severe restricted ventilation dysfunction,sleep monitoring indicated severe sleep apnea hypopnea,severe nocturnal hypoxemia,echocardiography-derived systolic pulmonary pressure was 62 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),electromyography indicated myogenic lesion,and whole exon sequencing indicated GAA gene mutation.Supportive therapy and enzyme replacement therapy are applied in this patient.

Objectives:To observe the effectiveness and safety of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide(rhBNP)for the treatment of patients with right heart failure caused by pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH).Methods:A total of 421 patients with right heart failure caused by PAH who were hospitalized in Fuwai Hospital from January 2019 to June 2024 were retrospectively included in this study.All patients were treated with rhBNP on top of conventional therapy.24 h urine volume,body weight,liver and renal function index,electrolyte,uric acid,red blood cell distribution width(RBCDW),cardiac function,blood pressure and heart rate before and after the treatment of rhBNP were compared.Clinical symptoms,signs and the occurrence of adverse events during treatment were also observed.Results:Compared with baseline,after treatment with rhBNP,the 24 h urine volume increased.The levels of body weight,transaminase,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,uric acid,RBCDW,systolic blood pressure,heart rate,and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide significantly decreased(all P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of serum creatinine,and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion to pulmonary artery systolic pressure ratio(both P>0.05).Dyspnea and lower limbs edema were improved in 75.2%cases(227/302)and 66.9%cases(281/420)respectively.The incidence of adverse events and severe adverse events during rhBNP treatment were 1.2%(5/421)and 0.5%(2/421)respectively.Conclusions:Adding rhBNP on top of standard medication can effectively increase 24 h urine volume,reduce body weight,improve some prognostic indicators,improve the clinical symptoms and signs of heart failure without negatively affecting the renal function in right heart failure patients caused by PAH.Blood pressure should be closely monitored during the treatment process.

Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is characterised by the persistent obstruction of the proximal pulmonary arteries by organized thrombi and peripheral microvascular disease,which can lead to right-sided heart failure and mortality.Pulmonary endarterectomy enables complete removal of visible obstructive elements within the pulmonary arteries and is recommended for operable patients.Nevertheless,over 40%of patients are precluded from pulmonary endarterectomy because of factors such as surgically inaccessible lesions,compromised general health status,or concurrent comorbidities or still with residual pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy.For inoperable patients or those with residual pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy,balloon pulmonary angioplasty is an effective therapeutic option,which could significantly improve the hemodynamic,exercise tolerance and outcome of the patients.With the emerging accumulation of clinical experience and evidence,2022 European Society of Cardiology/European Respiratory Society guidelines of pulmonary hypertension recommend balloon pulmonary angioplasty as an alternative therapeutic option for these patients.However,different types of lesions may have their own lesion characteristics,the strategy and device of balloon pulmonary angioplasty should thus be individually considered for different lesions,in fact,the success rate of treatment and the incidence rate of complications are varied significantly.Therefore,the aim of this review is to comprehensively summarize the existing studies on balloon pulmonary angioplasty treatment strategies for different types of lesions and the management of complications to provide guidance and reference for clinicians.
