Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a series of perioperative optimization measures based on evidence-based medicine aimed at achieving rapid recovery. Existing studies have shown that ERAS can effectively reduce surgical stress, decrease the incidence of complications, shorten hospital stays, save medical costs, and improve patient satisfaction. Although lung transplantation techniques have become increasingly mature, lung transplant recipients still have a high incidence of complications during perioperative period. To further improve the perioperative survival rate of lung transplant recipients, introducing ERAS concept into the perioperative management strategy of lung transplantation is of great significance for reducing incidence of perioperative complications, promoting rapid recovery and long-term survival of lung transplant recipients. This article discusses the advances in application of ERAS concept in the perioperative management of lung transplantation, aiming to provide references for optimizing the perioperative management of lung transplant recipients and reducing perioperative complications.

Aim To investigate the effect and role of neuronal restriction silencing factor(REST/NRSF)in epilepsy disorder.Methods Immunohistochemistry,immunofluorescence,Western blot and qPCR tech-niques were used to detect REST/NRSF expression levels in hippocampal tissues of mice induced by kainic acid and human brain tissue.Viral injections,EEG re-cordings and behavioral methods were used to test the effects on epileptic mice after knockdown and overex-pression of REST/NRSF in the hippocampal CA1 re-gion,respectively.Results The positive rate of REST/NRSF in the lesions of epileptic patients was significantly higher compared with that in the control group.The levels of REST/NRSF protein and mRNA in the CA1 region of the hippocampus of mice in the KA model group were significantly higher.Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 potassium channel mRNA expression levels were significantly down-regulated.Significant up-regu-lation of REST/NRSF expression levels was observed in mouse hippocampus after NMDA injection.Knock-down of REST/NRSF in the CA1 region of hippocam-pus significantly elevated the expression levels of Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 potassium channel mRNAs.The fre-quency of EEG spiking and sharp-wave issuance and epileptic seizure grade were significantly lower.Over-expression of REST/NRSF in the CA1 region of hippo-campus significantly reduced the mRNA expression lev-els of Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 potassium channels.The fre-quency of EEG spiking and sharp-wave issuance was significantly higher and epileptic symptoms were exac-erbated.Conclusion REST/NRSF in mouse hipp-ocampal brain regions is involved in epileptic disease development through transcriptional regulation of Kv7.2 and Kv7.3 potassium channels.

Objective:To investigate the effect of recombinant human prourokinase combined with tirofiban on cardiac func-tion and prognosis in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(ASTEMI)undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods:A total of 156 ASTEMI patients undergoing PCI treated in our hos-pital from June 2019 to December 2020 were selected.They were equally divided into control group(received tirofiban in-jection during emergency PCI)and study group(received recombinant human prourokinase injection based on control group)according to random number table method.Two groups received the same medication before and after emergency PCI.Thrombolysis in myocardial infarction(TIMI)flow,TIMI myocardial perfusion grade(TMPG)before and after PCI,cardiac function indexes before and one week after PCI,incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)and adverse reactions within 1-year follow-up were compared between two groups.Results:After PCI,compared with control group,there were significant rise in proportions of TIMI flow grade 3(51.28％vs.83.00％)and TMPG grade 3(51.28％vs.84.62％),left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)one week after PCI[(44.26±3.45)％vs.(49.17±2.92)％],and significant reductions in left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDd)[(56.47±2.54)mm vs.(51.32±2.55)mm],left ventricular end-systolic diameter(LVESd)[(41.86±2.49)mm vs.(36.01±1.68)mm]one week after PCI,incidence rates of MACE(24.36％vs.7.69％)and adverse reactions(10.26％vs.1.28％)within 1-year fol-low-up in study group(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Conclusion:Recombinant human prourokinase combined with tirofiban can significantly improve cardiac function,reduce the incidence rates of MACE and adverse reactions,and improve the prog-nosis in ASTEMI patients after PCI,which is worthy of clinical reference.

Activation of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)by Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1(Keap1)alkylation plays a central role in anti-inflammatory therapy.However,activators of Nrf2 through alkylation of Keap1-Kelch domain have not been identified.Deoxynyboquinone(DNQ)is a natural small molecule discovered from marine actinomycetes.The current study was designed to investigate the anti-inflammatory effects and molecular mechanisms of DNQ via alkylation of Keap1.DNQ exhibited signif-icant anti-inflammatory properties both in vitro and in vivo.The pharmacophore responsible for the anti-inflammatory properties of DNQ was determined to be the α,β-unsaturated amides moieties by a chemical reaction between DNQ and N-acetylcysteine.DNQ exerted anti-inflammatory effects through activation of Nrf2/ARE pathway.Keap1 was demonstrated to be the direct target of DNQ and bound with DNQ through conjugate addition reaction involving alkylation.The specific alkylation site of DNQ on Keap1 for Nrf2 activation was elucidated with a synthesized probe in conjunction with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.DNQ triggered the ubiquitination and subsequent degra-dation of Keap1 by alkylation of the cysteine residue 489(Cys489)on Keap1-Kelch domain,ultimately enabling the activation of Nrf2.Our findings revealed that DNQ exhibited potent anti-inflammatory capacity through α,β-unsaturated amides moieties active group which specifically activated Nrf2 signal pathway via alkylation/ubiquitination of Keap1-Kelch domain,suggesting the potential values of targeting Cys489 on Keap1-Kelch domain by DNQ-like small molecules in inflammatory therapies.

AIM:To investigate the molecular mechanism underlying ferroptosis induced by celastrol(Cel)in huamn pancreatic cancer cell line PANC-1.METHODS:The viability of PANC-1 cells was analyzed by MTT assay,and the effects of Cel on cell proliferation were analyzed using EdU and colony formation assays.Flow cytometry and fluores-cence microscopy were used to assess and observe changes in lipid reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels,respectively,while the levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione(GSH)and Fe2+were measured using specific kits.The protein expression of glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)was evaluated by Western blot,and GPX4 ubiquitination was measured by immunoprecipitation.RESULTS:It was found that the viability,proliferation and colony formation in PANC-1 cells de-creased gradually as the concentration of Cel increased.Addition of Cel alone to the cells reduced both cell rounding and viability,while treatment with ferrostatin-1(Fer-1)alone or in combination with Cel had no effect on either cell morpholo-gy or viability.Fluorescence staining of lipid ROS with BODIPYTM 581/591 C11 followed by flow cytometry analysis showed significantly increased levels of green fluorescence indicative of oxidized lipid ROS,which were further increased after treatment of the cells with Cel.Treatment of the cells with both Cel and Fer-1 reduced the green fluorescence and lip-id ROS levels.Treatment with Cel also increased the levels of MDA and Fe2+,relative to the controls,which reducing the levels of GSH,while addition of both Cel and Fer-1 to the cells restored the levels of MDA,Fe2+,and GSH to those of the control group.CONCLUSION:Treatment with Cel reduces the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells by inducing fer-roptosis through promoting the ubiquitination and degradation of GPX4.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To investigate the role of variation trend of pre-treatment blood beta human chorionic gonadotropin(β-HCG)in predicting the efficacy of tubal pregnancy(TP)treated by drug therapy.Methods Clinical data of 380 TP patients treated by drug therapy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January 2017 to June 2022 were collected.The patients were divided into 271 cases in the pure Chinese medicine(CM)treatment group(shortened as pure CM group)and 109 cases in the combination of Chinese medicine and western medicine group(shortened as combination group)according to the therapy.The relevant factors that may affect the outcomes of the therapy were analyzed,and logistic regression analysis was used for the control of confounding factors.The influences of pre-treatment β-HCG on the outcomes of TP treated by various therapies were investigated,and the value of variation trend of pre-treatment β-HCG in predicting the efficacy of TP treated by drug therapy was assessed using the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC curve).Results(1)The results of univariate analysis showed that the initial value of blood β-HCG,the variation trend of β-HCG and the difference value of β-HCG detected for 2 times before treatment were correlated with the treatment outcomes in the pure CM group and the combination group,and the differences were all statistically significant(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(2)The results of multivariate regression analysis showed that in the pure CM group,the blood β-HCG values and the variation trend of β-HCG detected for 2 times before treatment were correlated with the treatment outcomes,and the differences were all statistically significant(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01);in the combination group,the menopausal time and blood β-HCG value detected at the second time before treatment were correlated with the treatment outcomes,and the differences were all statistically significant(P＜0.05).(3)After controlling for the confounding factors,the variation trend of pre-treatment β-HCG in the pure CM group was correlated with the treatment outcomes,and the difference was statistically significant(OR=3.35,95%CI being 1.69-6.65,P = 0.001).However,the variation trend of pre-treatment β-HCG in the combination group did not affect the treatment outcomes,and the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).(4)The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)in the pure CM group was 0.74,the cutoff value was-0.14,the sensitivity was 71.3%and the specificity was 67.8%.The AUC in the combination group was 0.67,the cutoff value was 0.10,the sensitivity was 73.6%and the specificity was 60.7%.Conclusion The variation trend of pre-treatment blood β-HCG can effectively predict the efficacy of Chinese medicine for the treatment of TP,but has no value for predicting the efficacy of the combination of Chinese medicine and western medicine in treating TP.The variation value of pre-treatment blood β-HCG can be used as a valuable reference indicator for the early prediction of the outcomes of TP treated by drug therapy.
