Objective:To investigate the effect of low-dose aspirin combined with dydrogesterone in the treatment of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) complicated with infertility and its influence on hormones and helper T cytokines.Methods:300 PCOS patients with infertility in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University were selected from January 2018 to October 2023. A prospective randomized controlled study was performed. The study subjects were divided into control group and observation group by random envelope method, with 150 cases in each group. The control group was treated with dydrogesterone on the basis of routine intervention, while the observation group was combined with low-dose aspirin on the basis of the control group. The efficacy, pregnancy rate, hormones, Th1 and Th2 cytokines and incidence of adverse reactions were compared in between groups. Measurement data with normal distribution was represented by xˉ± s. Comparison between groups was performed by two-sample t-test and paired t-test was used for comparison before and after treatment. Enumeration data was represented by n(%). Comparison between groups was performed by χ2 test. Results:After treatment, the total effective rate of treatment and pregnancy rate in observation group were higher than those in control group [86.00%(129/150) vs. 74.67% (112/150), 63.33% (95/150) vs. 47.33% (71/150)] ( χ2=6.10, P=0.014, χ2=6.73, P=0.010). Serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in both groups were lower after treatment than those before treatment, and the levels in observation group were lower than those in control group [(5.27±1.01) U/L vs. (6.40±1.13) U/L, (6.78±0.87) U/L vs. (7.16±0.91) U/L], and serum estradiol level was higher than that before treatment, and the level in observation group was higher compared to control group [(93.35±8.17) ng/L vs. (82.45±9.14) ng/L] ( t=9.13, 3.70, 10.89, all P<0.001). After treatment, serum γ-interferon, interleukin (IL-2), IL-4 and IL-6 levels were all lower in both groups than those before treatment, and the above levels were lower in observation group than those in control group [(56.96±4.64) ng/L vs. (61.36±4.41) ng/L, (38.74±7.43) ng/L vs.(45.63±8.64) ng/L, (41.03±7.06) ng/L vs. (43.36±8.12 ng/L), (23.14±4.33) ng/L vs. (27.14±5.14) ng/L] ( t=8.42, 7.40, 2.65, 7.29, P<0.001, <0.0 010.008, <0.001). There was no statistical significance in the total incidence rate of adverse reactions between observation group and control group [12.67%(22/150) vs. 9.33% (14/150), χ2=0.85, P=0.356]. Conclusions:Low-dose aspirin combined with dydrogesterone has a significant clinical effect in the treatment of PCOS with infertility, and it can improve 3-month pregnancy rate, and effectively regulate hormones levels and Th1 and Th2 cytokines, and it will not increase adverse reactions, with high safety.

Objective Based on the sampling test of national drugs,the quality of Huatan Pingchuan tablets was systematically evaluated,and the quality problems were analyzed to provide references and suggestions for the quality control of this variety and to improve its quality standard.Methods A total of 157 batches of samples were tested according to the statutory standard,and based on the testing results and prescription characteristics,microscopic identification and comprehensive analysis of its quality using thin-layer chromatography,high-performance liquid chromatography,and other methods were subsequently established or improved for the exploratory research.Results The established thin-layer chromatography identification for Radix Scutellariae,as well as the content determination methods for Radix Scutellariae,Syringae Cortex,and promethazine hydrochloride,are easy to operate and have good durability and specificity and can be applied to the quality control and evaluation of Huatan Pingchuan tablets.Conclusions The overall quality of the tablets is average;some enterprises should strengthen the quality control of raw medicinal materials(decoction pieces);individual enterprises have significant differences in the quality of samples from different batches,so they need to pay attention to the quality of raw materials and the stability of production processes;the inspection items of the current standards cannot fully reflect the key quality attributes of drugs,and standards improvement work needs to be carried out.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics,diagnosis,and treatment of gastric duplication(GD)in children.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 46 pediatric patients with GD treated at our hospital from January 2008 to January 2025.The evaluated parameters included age,gender,symptoms,comorbidities,imaging data,surgical process,postoperative treatment and follow-up situation.Analyze the clinical characteristics of GD.Results Forty-four cases were cystic structures,and 2 cases were sinus tracts or tubular structures respectively.The most common site was the cardia/fundus area(20 cases).Seventeen cases were asymptomatic(7 detected during prenatal screening and 10 identified incidentally).The most common associated anomalies were inguinal hernia(4 cases),pulmonary airway malformation(3 cases),pulmonary sequestration(3 cases),and hiatal hernia(3 cases).All 46 patients underwent ultrasound examination,with an accuracy of 97.8％.Upper gastrointestinal contrast studies were performed in 16 cases and computed tomography(CT)was conducted in 34 patients.Perforation occurred in 7 cases.Surgical approaches included laparoscopy(35 cases,with 5 conversions to open surgery),open surgery(9 cases),robotic surgery(1 case),transthoracic surgery(1 case).Operative time ranged from 50 to 250 minutes(median:105 minutes).Postoperative pathology identified pancreatic heterotopia in 6 cases.Time to resume oral intake ranged from 1 to 17 days(median:4 days),and postoperative hospital stay lasted 3-21 days(median:7 days).During follow-up,one patient was readmitted for adhesive intestinal obstruction and managed conservatively,with no other significant complications reported.Conclusion Pediatric GD is a rare congenital anomaly,typically presenting as non-communicating cystic lesions with nonspecific clinical manifestations.Ultrasonography is the primary diagnostic tool,with upper GI series,CT/MRI,and endoscopy as adjuncts.While prompt surgical intervention is indicated for symptomatic cases,those complicated by perforation/infection should undergo delayed elective resection ≥ 3 months following complete inflammatory resolution.Laparoscopic approach is the treatment of choice,while endoscopic intraoperative localization or endoscopic therapy may be considered for small intraluminal lesions.

Objective To investigate the changes and predictive value of Omentin-1 levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)under different bone metabolic status.Methods A total of 120 T2DM pa-tients admitted to a hospital from June 2021 to December 2022 were selected and divided into group A(normal bone mass,T-value-1.0,36 cases),Group B(bone loss,-2.5＜T-value＜-1.0,49 cases)and group C(osteoporosis,T-value-2.5,35 cases)according to different bone mineral density.Another 50 healthy sub-jects who underwent physical examination in a hospital during the same period were selected as the healthy control group.Basic data,serum Omentin-1 and bone metabolism levels of the 4 groups were compared,and the correlation between serum Omentin-1 and bone metabolism and blood glucose levels was analyzed by Pear-son correlation analysis.Multiple stepwise regression analysis was conducted to analyze the factors affecting bone mineral density in T2DM patients.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of serum Omentin-1 level in T2DM with osteoporosis.Results The fasting blood glucose(FBG)level of groups A,B and C was higher than that of healthy control group,and the hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)of healthy control group,group A and group B were lower than that of group C,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).Omentin-1,type Ⅰ procollagen N-terminal propeptide(P Ⅰ NP)and osteocalcin(BGP)in healthy control group,group A and group B were higher than those in group C,while the β-CTX sequence of type Ⅰ collagen in healthy con-trol group,group A and group B was lower than that in group C,and the difference was statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that the serum Omentin-1 level in T2DM patients was negatively correlated with the levels of HbA1c,HOMA-IR and β-CTX(r=-0.770,-0.807,-0.759,P＜0.05),and positively correlated with the levels of P Ⅰ NP and BGP(r=0.868,0.879,P＜0.05),but no sig-nificant correlation with FBG level(r=-0.085,P=0.152).Omentin-1,P Ⅰ NP,β-CTX,BGP,HbA1c and HOMA-IR were independent influencing factors of BMD in T2DM patients(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of serum Omentin-1 level predicting T2DM with osteoporosis was 0.835(95％CI:0.764-0.906),and when the cut-off value was 50.325 ng/mL,the sensitivity was 0.854,the speci-ficity was 0.801,and the Youden index was 0.655.Conclusion Serum Omentin-1 expression is low in T2DM patients,and its expression is closely related to bone mineral density,bone metabolism and insulin resistance in T2DM patients,and can effectively predict the occurrence of T2DM with osteoporosis.

BACKGROUND:Internal tension-reduction technique is to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament through high-strength suture system combined with tendon.It can effectively reduce graft relaxation and frets by sharing the internal load of the knee joint,and has achieved good biomechanical results and clinical efficacy.However,whether it can reduce cartilage degeneration after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction through stress sharing reduction has not been studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of internal tension-reduction technique on articular cartilage degeneration in southern Yunnan small-ear pigs undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. METHODS:Ten adult female Yunnan small-ear pigs were selected,and the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon was taken from the left knee joint for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(normal group,n=10),and the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon from the right knee joint combined with internal tension-reduction and augmentation system for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction(tension-reduction group,n=10).One year after surgery,the experimental pigs were sacrificed,and the left and right knee cartilage was taken for hematoxylin-eosin staining,Safranin O-fast green staining,Osteoarthritis Research Society International scoring,and immunohistochemistry staining of type Ⅱ collagen,interleukin-1β,and tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the cartilage. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that in the tension-reduction group,there were mild pathologic changes of osteoarthritis,with a low number of empty bone lacunae and no obvious pathological changes such as fibrosis or cell layer breakage;in the normal group,more severe cartilage damage,with an increased number of empty bone lacunae,loss of chondrocytes near the bone and even the formation of fissures.Safranin O-fast green staining indicated that the tension-reduction group had normal cartilage tissue thickness,flat cartilage surface,a neat cell arrangement in a polar pattern,and no swelling or apoptosis,while in the normal group,the thickness of cartilage tissue was obviously thinner,the cell arrangement was disordered with no polarity,the number of cells was reduced,obvious cartilage fractures and cartilage vacuoles formed,and the absence of cells near the central bone was obvious.The Osteoarthritis Research Society International score was significantly lower in the tension-reduction group than in the normal group(P＜0.05).Immunohistochemical findings showed that the protein expression of type Ⅱ collagen in cartilage tissue of the tension-reducing group was higher than that of the normal group(P＜0.05),and the protein expression of interleukin 1β and tumor necrosis factor ɑ in cartilage tissue was lower than that of normal group(P＜0.05).To conclude,internal tension-reduction technique can delay the degeneration of articular cartilage in Yunnan small-eared pigs following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Nowadays potential preclinical drugs for the treatment of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) have failed to achieve expected therapeutic efficacy because the pathogenic mechanisms are underestimated. Inactive rhomboid protein 2 (IRHOM2), a promising target for treatment of inflammation-related diseases, contributes to deregulated hepatocyte metabolism-associated nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) progression. However, the molecular mechanism underlying Irhom2 regulation is still not completely understood. In this work, we identify the ubiquitin-specific protease 13 (USP13) as a critical and novel endogenous blocker of IRHOM2, and we also indicate that USP13 is an IRHOM2-interacting protein that catalyzes deubiquitination of Irhom2 in hepatocytes. Hepatocyte-specific loss of the Usp13 disrupts liver metabolic homeostasis, followed by glycometabolic disorder, lipid deposition, increased inflammation, and markedly promotes NASH development. Conversely, transgenic mice with Usp13 overexpression, lentivirus (LV)- or adeno-associated virus (AAV)-driven Usp13 gene therapeutics mitigates NASH in 3 models of rodent. Mechanistically, in response to metabolic stresses, USP13 directly interacts with IRHOM2 and removes its K63-linked ubiquitination induced by ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2N (UBC13), a ubiquitin E2 conjugating enzyme, and thus prevents its activation of downstream cascade pathway. USP13 is a potential treatment target for NASH therapy by targeting the Irhom2 signaling pathway.
