Objective: To explore the independent risk factors of allogeneic blood transfusion during perioperative period of cytoreductive surgery in patients with ovarian cancer, and to construct a predictive model to facilitate clinical risk assessment and optimize perioperative blood management. Methods: Clinical data of 156 patients who underwent cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2025 were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into transfusion group (n=51) and non-transfusion group (n=105) according to whether they received allogeneic blood transfusion during perioperative period. The 1∶1 propensity score matching (PSM) was used to correct the confounding factors. Independent sample t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used for measurement data, and chisquare test was used for enumeration data. Variables with P<0.05 in univariate analysis were included in binary logistic regression for multivariate analysis to determine independent risk factors. A nomogram model for perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion risk prediction was constructed based on independent risk factors. Bootstrap method (100 samples) was used for internal calibration verification. ROC curve was used to evaluate the discrimination efficiency, and decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the clinical net benefit of the model. Results: After propensity matching, the baseline data of the two groups were balanced and comparable. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative prothrombin time (PT) (OR=2.666, 95%CI 1.249~5.693, P=0.011), preoperative hemoglobin (Hb) (OR=0.953, 95%CI 0.923~0.984, P=0.003), intraoperative blood loss (OR=1.004, 95%CI 1.001-1.006, P=0.004), preoperative anemia grade (OR=3.052, 95%CI 1.007-9.252, P=0.049) were independent influencing factors of perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion. The nomogram model based on the above four factors was significant (LR χ =58.617, P<0.001), and the internal calibration curve showed that the predicted probability of the model was in good agreement with the actual probability (mean absolute error=0.042). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.890, indicating good discrimination efficiency. DCA showed that the clinical net benefit of the model was better than that of the unified transfusion/non-transfusion strategy in the 0-0.45 risk threshold range. Conclusion: Intraoperative blood loss, preoperative PT, preoperative Hb and preoperative anemia grade are independent risk factors for perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery for ovarian cancer. The nomogram model based on the above factors has good predictive efficacy and clinical hierarchical decision-making value, which can provide reference for clinical implementation of individualized blood management for high-risk patients and reduction of unnecessary blood transfusion rate.

Background Acute hypoxia exposure can impair synaptic transmission in hippocampal neurons and disrupt neural network function. However, the specific molecular mechanisms underlying hypoxia-induced synaptic vesicle dysfunction remain not fully elucidated. Objective To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying acute hypoxia-induced synaptic vesicle dysfunction in human hippocampal neuronal cells (HPPNCs) with a particular focus on the regulatory role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) FTX in the miR-137-3p/soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex axis. Methods An acute hypoxia injury model was established in HPPNCs. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was used to determine the optimal seeding density and hypoxic exposure duration. Proteomic analysis was utilized to identify differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) between normoxic and hypoxic conditions, followed by gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses to identify affected biological pathways. Bioinformatics prediction (e.g, RPISeq prediction of RNA-protein interactions) was integrated with quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting to evaluate changes in DEPs and the lncRNA FTX/miR-137-3p axis. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) silencing and interaction potential prediction were further employed to confirm the regulatory role of lncRNA FTX. Results CCK-8 assay determined that the optimal seeding density for HPPNCs was 3.5×10³ cells·well⁻¹ and that 48 h of acute hypoxia exposure significantly reduced cell viability. Proteomic analysis revealed that DEPs were primarily enriched in the synaptic vesicle cycle pathway. Synaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP25), a core component of the SNARE complex, was significantly downregulated at both mRNA and protein levels (P < 0.01). Mechanistic studies found that lncRNA FTX expression was significantly decreased in hypoxic cells, whereas miR-137-3p expression was significantly elevated. Furthermore, siRNA silencing of lncRNA FTX significantly reduced SNAP25 expression. RPISeq prediction suggested a potential interaction between lncRNA FTX and the SNAP25 protein (random forest, RF=0.75; support vector machine, SVM=0.56). Conclusion Acute hypoxia exposure may impair synaptic vesicle function in hippocampal neuronal cells by downregulating lncRNA FTX, increasing miR-137-3p expression, and suppressing SNAP25 expression, thereby disrupting the SNARE complex. These findings suggest that the lncRNA FTX/miR-137-3p/SNAP25 axis may play an important role in acute hypoxia-induced synaptic dysfunction.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and related characteristics of hospitalized patients with pemphigus, and to analyze their correlations with systemic inflammatory and serological indicators.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data from pemphigus patients hospitalized in the Department of Dermatology, Wuhan No.1 Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023. Spearman correlation analysis was performed to assess the correlations between the Pemphigus Disease Area Index (PDAI) scores and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) , pan-immune-inflammation value (PIV) , serum albumin levels, anti-desmoglein 1/3 (Dsg-1/3) antibody levels, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. Linear regression models were used to evaluate the associations of systemic inflammatory and serological indicators with the length of hospital stay and treatment costs. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to analyze the effect of these indicators on the risk of infection in pemphigus patients.Results:A total of 235 pemphigus patients were included (112 males and 123 females) , with ages of 58.12 ± 16.47 years. Among them, 73 patients (31.06%) had pemphigus alone, while 162 (68.94%) had comorbidities including tumors, infections, or hypoalbuminemia. PDAI scores showed significantly positive correlations with SII, PIV, and CRP levels ( r = 0.62, 0.58, 0.50, respectively, all P<0.001) . According to PDAI scores, 164 cases (69.79%) were classified as mild pemphigus, 57 (24.26%) as moderate pemphigus, and 14 (5.96%) as severe pemphigus; compared with the patients with mild pemphigus, those with moderate-to-severe pemphigus had significantly increased SII, PIV, anti-Dsg-1 antibody and CRP levels, but significantly decreased serum albumin levels (all P < 0.05) . Among the 235 patients, 213 were diagnosed with pemphigus vulgaris, 9 with pemphigus erythematosus, 10 with pemphigus foliaceus, and 3 with paraneoplastic pemphigus; serum albumin levels and anti-Dsg-1/3 antibody levels differed significantly among patients with different subtypes of pemphigus (all P < 0.05) . The serum albumin level was significantly associated with the length of hospital stay and treatment costs ( β [95% CI]: -0.729 [-0.946 - -0.512], -0.266 [-0.362 - -0.171], respectively, both P < 0.001) ; furthermore, the serum albumin level was identified as a relevant factor for infections in pemphigus patients ( OR = 0.938, 95% CI: 0.883 - 0.995, P = 0.036) . Conclusion:SII, PIV, CRP, serum albumin, and anti-Dsg-1 antibody levels could reflect the severity of pemphigus to some extent, and the serum albumin level was significantly associated with comorbid infections, length of hospital stay, and treatment costs in hospitalized patients with pemphigus.

Objective:To evaluate the role of myosin heavy chain 9(MYH9) in gut-vascular barrier damage in septic mice.Methods:Eighty SPF C57BL/6J male mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 4 groups( n=20 each) by the random number table method: sham operation group(Sham group), sham operation + MYH9 inhibitor blebbistatin group(Sham+ Ble group), cecal ligation and perforation(CLP) group, and CLP+ blebbistatin group(CLP+ Ble group). A mouse sepsis model was established using CLP in anesthetized animals. Blebbistatin solution 5 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 1 h before CLP in Sham+ Ble and CLP+ Ble groups, while the equal volume of phosphate buffer was given instead in Sham and CLP groups. Fourteen mice were randomly selected from each group to observe the survival at 24 h after CLP. Blood samples were taken by apical puncture at 24 h after surgery in the remaining 6 mice in each group for determination of the plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and interleukin-6(IL-6)(using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), expression of plasma membrane vesicle-associated protein(PLVAP) in intestinal microvascular endothelial cells(using immunofluorescence), and expression of MYH9, PLVAP, vascular endothelial calreticulin(VE-cadherin) and β-catenin protein and mRNA(by Western bot or fluorescent quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and for examination of the pathological changes of intestinal tissues.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of action of Lifei Xiaoji Pill （理肺消积丸， LXP） in the treatment of non small cell lung cancer based on the Warburg effect and the USP47/BACH1 pathway. MethodsFifty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into five groups， model group， LXP group， inhibitor group， LXP + inhibitor group， and cisplatin group， with 10 mice in each group. A lung cancer mouse model was established by subcutaneously injecting Lewis cells. On the next day， the model group mice were given 0.2 ml of saline by gavage daily， the LXP group given 240 mg/（kg·d） of LXP solution once a day by gavage， the inhibitor group intraperitoneally injected with P22077 at a dose of 10 mg/（kg·d） every day， the LXP + inhibitor group given both LXP by gavage and P22077 by intraperitoneal injection once a day， and the cisplatin group received 0.5 mg/（kg·d） cisplatin intraperitoneally every other day. All treatments lasted for 14 days. On the day after the last dose， tumor weight and volume were measured， tumor histopathology was examined by HE staining， apoptosis in tumor tissues was detected by TUNEL staining， and proliferation cell nuclear antigen （PCNA） protein levels were detected by immunohistochemistry. Warburg effect indicators， including glucose concentration， lactate content， and adenosine triphosphate （ATP） production in tumor tissues， were measured. Western Blot and qRT-PCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression levels of USP47， BACH1， hexokinase 2 （HK2）， and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase （GAPDH）. ResultsCompared with the model group， all drug intervention groups showed reduced tumor weight and volume， improved tumor pathology， decreased PCNA positive rate， increased apoptosis rate， and reduced expression levels of USP47， BACH1， and HK2 proteins and mRNA （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Except for lactate content in the cisplatin group， the glucose concentration in tumor tissues of other drug intervention groups increased， while lactate content and ATP production decreased （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the LXP group， the LXP + inhibitor group showed more significant improvements in these indicators （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the cisplatin group， the LXP + inhibitor group had lower mRNA expression of HK2 and GAPDH， and lower protein levels of USP47 and HK2 （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the inhibitor group， the cisplatin group had higher HK2 protein levels， while the LXP + inhibitor group showed lower mRNA expression of BACH1， HK2， and GAPDH （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionLXP significantly inhibits tumor growth in lung cancer mice， and its mechanism of action may be related to inhibiting the Warburg effect via the USP47/BACH1 pathway.
