Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a severe type of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), is a leading etiology of end-stage liver disease worldwide, posing significant health and economic burdens. microRNA-320 (miR-320), a ubiquitously expressed and evolutionarily conserved miRNA, has been reported to regulate lipid metabolism; however, whether and how miR-320 affects MASH development remains unclear. By performing miR-320 in situ hybridization with RNAscope, we observed a notable downregulation of miR-320 in hepatocytes during MASH, correlating with disease severity. Most importantly, miR-320 downregulation in hepatocytes exacerbated MASH progression as demonstrated that hepatocyte-specific miR-320 deficient mice were more susceptible to high-fat, high-fructose, high-cholesterol diet (HFHC) or choline-deficient, amino acid-defined, high-fat diet (CDAHFD)-induced MASH compared with control littermates. Conversely, restoration of miR-320 in hepatocytes ameliorated MASH-related steatosis and fibrosis by injection of adeno-associated virus 8 (AAV8) carrying miR-320 in different types of diet-induced MASH models. Mechanistic studies revealed that miR-320 specifically regulated fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) production in hepatocytes by inhibiting regulator factor X1 (RFX1) expression. Notably, knockdown of Rfx1 in hepatocytes mitigated MASH by enhancing FGF1-mediated AMPK activation. Our findings underscore the therapeutic potential of hepatic miR-320 supplementation in MASH treatment by inhibiting RFX1-mediated FGF1 suppression.

Objective:To construct an integrated early rehabilitation program for healthcare and rehabilitation system based on the information-motivation-behavioral skills (IMB) model and evaluate its application effect in patients treated with total hip arthroplasty (THA).Methods:Construction of the rehabilitation program: An integrated research team was established, composed of head burse of orthopedics, orthopedic nursing specialists, orthopedic surgeons, anesthesiologists, and rehabilitation therapists. Considering the key points of perioperative early rehabilitation of THA patients, an integrated early rehabilitation program was constructed based on the IMB model through literature review and expert panel method. Clinical application of the rehabilitation program: A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 100 THA patients admitted to Qingdao Municipal Hospital from March to December 2023, including 47 males and 53 females, aged 60-85 years [(69.8±5.5)years]. Patients were divided into two groups according to their admission time: 50 patients admitted from March to July 2023, receiving routine care (routine care group) and 50 admitted from August to December 2023, receiving intervention through an early rehabilitation program of an integrated healthcare and rehabilitation system based on routine care (integrated care group). The first postoperative ambulation time and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The Harris hip function score was used to assess hip function in both groups at 3 days, 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively; the Barthel index was used to assess the daily living self-care capacity in both groups preoperatively, at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. The incidence of complications within 6 months after surgery was compared between the two groups.Results:An early integrated rehabilitation program based on the IMB model comprised 25 specific measures of three domains: information support, motivational intervention, and behavioral skills. All the patients were followed up for 6 months. The first postoperative ambulation time and length of hospital stay in the integrated care group were (1.3±0.5)days and (7.4±2.3)days, shorter than (1.5±0.5)days and (8.5±2.3)days in the routine care group ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the Harris hip function scores at 3 days postoperatively or preoperative Barthel index between the two groups ( P>0.05). At 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively, the Harris hip function scores in the integrated care group were (80.3±6.0)points, (88.6±5.2)points, and (92.5±4.1)points, respectively, higher than (75.1±6.3)points, (84.2±5.7)points, and (88.0±5.2)points in the routine care group ( P<0.01); the Barthel index in the integrated care group were (79.2±8.7)points, (87.7±5.7)points, and (92.3±4.9)points, respectively, higher than (72.1±9.0)points, (83.5±6.6)points, and (88.6±5.0)points in the routine care group ( P<0.01). At 6 months postoperatively, the incidence of complications in the integrated care group was 4% (2/50), lower than 16% (8/50) in the routine care group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the routine care, an integrated early rehabilitation program for medical care and health based on the information-motivation-behavioral skills model for THA patients can shorten the first postoperative ambulation time and length of hospital stay, restore hip joint function, improve daily living self-care capacity and reduce the incidence of complications.

Plastics have brought invaluable convenience to human life since it was firstly synthesized in the last century. However, the stable polymer structure of plastics led to the continuous accumulation of plastic wastes, which poses serious threats to the ecological environment and human health. Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) is the most widely produced polyester plastics. Recent researches on PET hydrolases have shown great potential of enzymatic degradation and recycling of plastics. Meanwhile, the biodegradation pathway of PET has become a reference model for the biodegradation of other plastics. This review summarizes the sources of PET hydrolases and their degradation capacity, degradation mechanism of PET by the most representative PET hydrolase-IsPETase, and recently reported highly efficient degrading enzymes through enzyme engineering. The advances of PET hydrolases may facilitate the research on the degradation mechanism of PET and further exploration and engineering of efficient PET degradation enzymes.

OBJECTIVE To establish evaluation criteria for rational drug use of atosiban in clinic， and to provide reference for rational drug use of atosiban in clinic. METHODS Based on the drug instructions of atosiban acetate injection and related guidelines， the experts of the Evaluation Group of Rational Drug Use formulated the evaluation criteria of rational drug use， including 5 primary indexes and 8 secondary indexes. The weight coefficients of secondary indexes were calculated by analytic hierarchy process （AHP）， and the use of atosiban acetate injection in 190 pregnant women from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University （referred to as “our hospital”） was evaluated retrospectively by technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution （TOPSIS）. The evaluation results were divided into three levels including reasonable， basic reasonable and unreasonable application based on the relative approach degree. RESULTS Among 190 pregnant women， 49 （25.8%） were treated with atosiban reasonably， 39 （20.5%） were treated with atosiban basic reasonably， and 102 （53.7%） were treated with atosiban unreasonably. The evaluation results obtained by AHP-TOPSIS method were consistent with the actual situation in clinic. The main problems of the unreasonably use were super indications， unreasonable usage and dosage， over the course of treatment and the lack of proper economic consideration. CONCLUSIONS The rationality evaluation criteria of atosiban’s clinical application are established by AHP-TOPSIS method； the evaluation results obtained by this method are quantifiable， scientific and reliable. The unreasonable use of atosiban is common in our hospital， and the management should be strengthened in clinical application.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of multipoint core needle biopsy (CNB) at mid-stage to predict the treatment effect of neoadjuvant systemic therapy for breast cancer.Methods:A total of 67 breast cancer cases with indications of neoadjuvant systemic therapy were selected from Mar. 2021 to Nov. 2022.In the fourth cycle of neoadjuvant systemic therapy, core needle biopsy was performed at 3, 6, 9, 12 points of tumor bed and residual tumor foci of breast respectively.The results of CNB were compared with the results of routine pathology of surgery after the completion of neoadjuvant therapy. Matched biopsy and surgical specimens were compared to assess pCR. The accuracy and false negative rate (FNR) of interim pathological assessment were analyzed. The coincidence probability of interim biopsy pathology and pathology of standard surgical excision was verified.Results:The median age of enrolled patients was 49.2 years (21-69 years) .Median maximum tumor diameter before neoadjuvant systemic therapy and residual tumor diameter after neoadjuvant therapy were 40.4 mm (range 21-93mm) and 19.6 mm (range 0-41mm) respectively. A total of 28 patients achieved pCR, and the PCR rates of hormone receptor-positive and HER2-nagative,triple-negative,hormone receptor negative and HER2-positive and hormone receptor-positive and HER2-positive disease were 4/24 (16.7%) ,6/14 (42.9%) ,11/18 (61.1%) ,7/11 (63.6%), respectively. Two cases had no preoperative imaging abnormalities. The results of core needle biopsy pathology of residual tumor lesions in 55 patients were consistent with those of routine post-operation pathology.The results of core needle biopsy pathology of tumor bed of 56 patients was consistent with the routine pathology of surgery. The false negative rate of interim multipoint biopsy pathology of residual tumor foci was 17.9% (12/67). The false negative rate of tumor bed with core needle biopsy was 5.9% (4/67) .Conclusions:CNB guided under ultrasound is feasible in predicting tumor retreat situation in the tumor bed area and residual tumor foci at mid-stage of neoadjuvant therapy. Increasing the number of core needles and improving biopsy techniques may improve the accuracy of pathological evaluation of interim multipoint biopsy.
