Objective:To compare the efficacy of neuroendoscopy-assisted small bone window craniotomy and large bone flap craniotomy for acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) evacuation in elderly patients.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 57 elderly patients with ASDH admitted to Chongqing University Fuling Hospital from November 2020 to November 2023, including 27 males and 30 females, aged 65-89 years [(75.0±7.0)years]. The preoperative Glasgow coma scale (GCS) ranged 8-15 points [11.0(11.0, 12.0)points]. Among them, 27 patients were treated with neuroendoscopy-assisted small bone window craniotomy to evacuate ASDH (small bone window group) and 30 received large bone flap craniotomy to evacuate ASDH (large bone flap group). The following parameters were compared between the two groups: surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, and length of hospital stay; residual subdural hematoma volume before surgery and at 1 day after surgery; GCS before surgery, at 1 and 3 days after surgery; good rate of Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) at 7 days and 6 months after surgery; and postoperative complication rate.Results:All the patients were followed up for 6 months. The surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, and length of hospital stay were 89.0(85.0, 96.0)minutes, 65.0(55.0, 85.0)ml, and 15.0(14.0, 16.0)days, respectively in the small bone window group, which were shorter or less than 135.0(127.5, 150.0)minutes, 332.0(308.0, 367.5)ml, and 18.5(16.0, 20.0)days in the large bone flap group ( P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in the residual subdural hematoma volume between the two groups before surgery and at 1 day after surgery ( P>0.05). No statistically significant difference was found in GCS scores between the two groups before surgery ( P>0.05), while the GCS scores in the small bone window group at 1 and 3 days after surgery [12.0(12.0, 13.0)points and 15.0(14.0, 15.0)points] were higher than 11.5(11.0, 12.0)points and 13.0(12.8, 14.0)points in the large bone flap group ( P<0.01). The good rate of GOS in the small bone window group at 7 days after surgery was 100% (27/27), higher than 77% (23/30) in the large bone flap group ( P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference was found in the good rate of GOS between the two groups at 6 months after surgery ( P>0.05). Two patients in the small bone window group had pulmonary infection after surgery, with a complication rate of 7% (2/27), while in the large bone flap group, four patients had pulmonary infection, two epidural hematoma, one intracranial infection, one delayed wound healing, one subcutaneous fluid accumulation, and one epilepsy after surgery, with a complication rate of 33% (10/30) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the conventional large bone flap craniotomy, neuroendoscopy-assisted small bone window craniotomy can shorten the surgical duration and length of hospital stay, reduce the intraoperative bleeding volume, promote early functional recovery, improve prognosis, and reduce the complication rate in elderly patients with ASDH.

P-glycoprotein(P-gp)is an ATP-dependent efflux transporter that is distributed in many tissues and organs.P-gp can selectively pump endogenous substrates and exogenous chemicals from the cell to the outside of the cell to maintain a stable endo-environment.However,it meanwhile restricts the entry of therapeutic drug into tissues and organs,and in particular,mediates the multidrug resistance of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs.Therefore,understanding the localization of P-gp in different tissues and organs may be an important breakthrough point for disease treatment.In this paper,we mainly review the molecular structure,transport mechanism,localization,and regulation of P-gp in different tissues and organs,providing reference for the subsequent treatment of diseases.

Objective:To study the correlation between perceived drug benefits and health-related quality of life of chronical disease patients under the centralized drug procurement policy.Methods:A multistage stratified random sampling method was used to select 1026 patients with chronic diseases in five provinces,namely,Jiangsu,Guangdong,Heilongjiang,Gansu,and Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region,and to analyze the current level of perceived drug benefits and health-related quality of life of 924 patients after centralized drug purchasing.Based on the linear regression model,the correlation between perceived drug benefits and health-related quality of life of patients with chronic diseases under the policy of centralized drug procurement was explored,and the heterogeneity among different populations was explored by grouping them according to the place of residence and the number of chronic diseases.Results:There were significant correlations between the perceived affordability and accessibility of medicines and health-related quality of life of patients with chronic diseases under the centralized drug procurement policy ( P<0.01 ) Recommendations:In order to improve the effect of the centralized drug procurement policy and to further increase the welfare of medicines for patients with chronic diseases,the government should continuously expand the coverage of selected drug categories,strengthen the management of distribution and supply chains for selected drugs,and focus on promoting the fairness of policy implementation.

Objective To compare the hepatic lipid droplet metabolism in normal BKS-db/m mice and BKS-db/db mice,a model of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM),and to investigate the characteristics of hepatic lipid droplet metabolism and the molecular mechanisms underlying the imbalance of metabolic homeostasis at the level of lipid droplet synthesis and lipid droplet catabolism in db/db mice. Methods Eight SPF 8 weeks BKS-db/m and 8 BKS-db/db mice were used in this study. The lipid metabolism level was tested. Oil red and HE staining was used to evaluate the degree of liver lipid deposition,and immunofluorescence staining and Western blot was used to observe the level of hepatic lipid droplet catabolism and metabolism. Results The body weight,liver weight,liver index,FPG,AUC of the OGTT,AUC of the ITT,TG,TC,HDL-C,LDL-C,FFA and SREBP1 positive fluorescence area and nuclear translocation were higher in db/db group than in db/m group (P<0.05). The lipophagia level of primary hepatocytes was higher in db/db group than in db/m group (P<0.05). Compared with the db/m group,the expressions of SREBP1,SCD1,PLIN2,LC3,LAMP2A and ATGL protein increased(P<0.05),while the expression of p-ACC/ACC protein decreased in the db/db group(P<0.05). Conclusions Compared with normal mice,T2DM mice had dyslipidemiaand marked hepatocellular lipid deposition.Although lipid droplet lipolysis and lipophagy were enhanced and catabolism was significant,the lipid droplet metabolism was in a state of imbalance between synthesis and catabolism,and the synthesis of lipid droplets was greater than that of catabolism,which led to the aggregation of hepatocellular lipids.
