AIM:To elucidate the mechanism by which Polygonatum sibiricum polysaccharides(PSP)miti-gate high-sugar diet-induced neuroinflammation through the gut microbiota-serum metabolome axis.METHODS:Fifty male ICR mice were divided into 5 groups:control group,model group,low-dose(250 mg/kg)PSP group,high-dose(500 mg/kg)PSP group,and donepezil hydrochloride(3 mg/kg)group.The neuroinflammation model was established through administration of high-sugar chow and 10%sucrose water for 12 weeks.Cognitive function assessment was per-formed utilizing the Morris water maze.Hippocampal histopathology was examined by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining,activated microglia were assessed via immunofluorescence,and neuronal apoptosis was evaluated by TUNEL assay.Serum and hippocampal levels of interleukin-6(IL-6),IL-1β,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and nitric oxide(NO)were quantified using ELISA and Western blot.Gut microbiota diversity and serum untargeted metabolomics analyses were car-ried out employing 16S rRNA sequencing and LC-MS/GC-MS,respectively.Differential metabolites were screened,and key metabolic pathways were enriched using MetaboAnalyst 6.0.Spearman correlation analysis established relationships between gut microbiota,metabolites,and inflammatory factors.RESULTS:Model mice demonstrated increased escape latency(P<0.05 or P<0.01)and decreased platform crossings(P<0.01)compared with controls,which were reversed by PSP treatment(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Treatment with PSP substantially reduced IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α and NO levels in se-rum and hippocampus(P<0.05 or P<0.01),diminished inflammatory infiltration,inhibited microglial activation,and re-duced neuronal damage.Gut microbiota analysis demonstrated that PSP increased Lactobacillus and Bacteroides abun-dance while reducing Alistipes(P<0.05).Metabolomics identified 15 differential metabolites(including betaine,kyotor-phin and ε-caprolactam)and highlighted the significance of alanine,aspartate and glutamate metabolism pathways.Spear-man analysis revealed that abundance of Alistipes and Bacteroides were positively correlated with IL-1β(P<0.05),while abundance of Lactobacillus was negatively correlated with inflammatory factors(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Key metabolites(be-taine,kyotorphin,ε-caprolactam,trans-cinnamate,cis-zeatin and galactitol)showed strong associations with inflamma-tion factors(P<0.05 or P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Treatment with PSP attenuates neuroinflammation through modula-tion of gut microbiota(Lactobacillus,Bacteroides and Alistipes),regulation of metabolites(betaine,kyotorphin and so on),and targeting amino acid metabolism pathways.

Objective To investigate the impacts of epidural anesthesia with ropivacaine combined with dezocine on lower limb motor nerve block and maternal and infant outcomes in primipara undergoing painless delivery.Methods A total of 159 primiparas who delivered in Nanjing Jiangbei Hospital were selected as the research objects,and divided into the blank group(53 cases),the ropivacaine group(53 cases)and the combined group(53 cases)by the random number table method.Parturients in the blank group were given natural delivery mode,parturients in the ropivacaine group were given ropivacaine epidural anesthesia,and parturients in the combined group were given dezocine anesthesia on the basis of ropivacaine.Analgesic effect at different time points,time of the first,second and third stage of labor,pressing times of analgesic pump,lower limbs motor nerve block,maternal and infant outcomes,and adverse reactions of parturients were compared among the three groups.Results At 10 minutes after analgesia,60 minutes after analgesia,when the cervix was fully dilated and when the fetus was delivered,the VAS scores of the parturients in the ropivacaine group and the combined group were lower than those in the blank group(P<0.05),and the VAS scores of the parturients in the combined group were significantly lower than those in the ropivacaine group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the time of the first,second or third stage of labor of parturients among the three groups(P>0.05);The pressing times of analgesic pump of parturients in the combined group was significantly less than that in the ropivacaine group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in terms of low limb motor nerve block after painless labor of parturients among the three groups(P>0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the perineal incision rate or the Apgar scores of newborns at 1 minute and 5 minutes after birth among the three groups(P>0.05).The usage rate of forceps and the rate of conversion to cesarean section in the combined group were significantly lower than those in the ropivacaine group and the blank group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of total adverse reactions among the blank group,the ropivacaine group and the combined group(P>0.05).Conclusion The combination of ropivacaine and dezocine for epidural anesthesia has a better analgesic effect on primiparas with painless delivery,has a smaller impact on lower limb motor nerve block in parturients,and can achieve better maternal and infant outcomes.

Postoperative infection of internal fixation of closed fractures the lower limbs in adults represents a devastating complication, characterized by diagnostic challenges, prolonged treatment duration and high disability rates. Current management of these infections faces multiple challenges, such as difficulties in early accurate diagnosis, and various controversies about the treatment plan, leading to poor overall diagnosis and treatment results. To address these issues, based on evidence-based medicine and principles with emphasis on scientific rigor, clinical applicability and innovation, the Trauma Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Orthopedics Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Trauma Orthopedics and Polytrauma Group of the Resuscitation and Emergency Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association have collaboratively organized a panel of relevant experts to develop the Guideline for diagnosis and treatment of infection after internal fixation of closed lower limb fractures in adults ( version 2025). The guideline proposed 10 recommendations, aiming to provide a foundation for standardized diagnosis and treatment of postoperative infection in adults with closed lower limb fractures.

This study investigated the potential pathogenicity and genetic characteristics of ST314 Salmonella Kentucky(S.Ken-tucky)isolates from a broiler slaughterhouse.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing(WGS)were used to determine antimicrobial resistance,virulence factors,and the presence of antimicrobial resistance genes(ARGs)and mobile genetic elements(MGEs)among the isolates.The three multidrug resistant(MDR)isolates exhibited high resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents.The F4-2S strain exhibited resistance to 14 drugs across seven categories,whereas the F4T strain showed resistance to 13 drugs in the same number of categories.In contrast,the Y23 strain was resistant to nine drugs in six categories.Notably,F4-2S dem-onstrated high homology with F4T:both possessed 13 ARGs distributed across nine categories,in addition to a wide range of virulence factors,including secretion systems and effector proteins.The presence of IncR and IncX1 plasmids significantly enhanced both the antimicrobial resistance and pathogenicity of the isolates.The genome map of Y23 revealed a chromosome alongside two plasmids.The chromosome containedonly one resistance gene but several virulence factors,including the type III secretion system(T3SS),which is crucial for bacterial invasion.The plasmid pY23-1 contained eight types of 19 ARGs.Comparative analysis indicated that pY23-1 ex-hibited high homology with pZ1323SSL0055 and pSAL-045,all of which contained multiple ARGs,thus suggesting critical roles of these genes in the evolution of bacterial resistance.In conclusion,ST314 S.Kentucky demonstrated a complex mechanism of resis-tance coupled with significant pathogenic potential.The ARGs and MGEs in the plasmid contributed to the emergence and dissemina-tion of antimicrobial resistance.The multiple virulence factors present in the chromosome may be key factors driving the increasing virulence of ST314 S.Kentucky.

Objective:To establish a detection method for fatty acid composition and methoxylaniline value in pharmaceutical excipient castor oil.Methods:The detection of fatty acid composition involves pre-test of the sam-ple using the methanol sodium methylation method,followed by direct injection analysis using gas chromatography,and finally calculating the content of each fatty acid composition using the area normalization method with correction factors.The detection of methoxylaniline value is achieved by dissolving and diluting the sample with isooctane:isopropanol(8∶2,volume ratio),reacting with 4-methoxylaniline,measuring the absorbance at a wavelength of 350 nm,and calculating the methoxylaniline value.Results:Under the composition of fatty acids,the 8 kinds of fatty acids have good separation degree.The methyl ricinoleate and methyl stearate have good linear relationship in the range of 0.1-5.0 mg·mL-1.The repeatabilityand intermediate precision(RSD)ofthe determination results of each fatty acid in the sample are all less than 5%.It is also found that only α-type of linolenic acid is present in castor oil,without γ-type.In the determination of methoxyaniline value,the blank solvent does not interfere with the determination of the sample,and the repeatability RSD is 3.6%.Conclusion:The detection method for fatty acid composition and meth-oxylaniline value established in this article is accurate and reliable,and can be used for the detection of fatty acid composition and methoxylaniline value in pharmaceutical excipient castor oil.
