ObjectiveTo introduce a fixation technique with the modified levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) and evaluate its efficacy in the treatment of adenomyosis patients with previous LNG-IUS expulsion. MethodsA retrospective analysis was done on 22 adenomyosis patients who underwent modified LNG-IUS fixation due to LNG-IUS expulsion at three hospitals from June 2022 to June 2023. The baseline clinical characteristics, operative and postoperative details were collected and analyzed. The Visual analogu scale (VAS) scores and pictorial blood loss assessment chart (PBAC) scores were measured and compared before, 3 and 6 months after the LNG-IUS fixation. ResultsThe mean operative time was (19.51±7.41) min and intraoperative bleeding was (6.71±5.30) mL. Of the patients, 13 were operated under local anaesthesia and the other 9 under intravenous anaesthesia. There were 4 operations performed by a resident doctor, 15 by an attending doctor and 3 by a senior doctor. No intraoperative or postoperative complication was found. The mean follow-up was 11.51 months and no patient had a recurrence of LNG-IUS expulsion during the follow-up period. The mean level of hemoglobin at 1 month after operation was significantly higher than that before (P<0.001). VAS scores and PBAC scores at 3 and 6 months postoperatively were all improved significantly than those preoperatively (P<0.001). ConclusionsEffectively preventing the recurrence of LNG-IUS expulsion, modified LNG-IUS fixation is a safe and efficient method for adenomyosis patients with previous LNG-IUS expulsion. Modified LNG-IUS fixation deserves the clinical application due to its easy operation and wide range of use on women.

Objective:To identify diagnostic markers related to oxidative stress in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) by analyzing transcriptome sequencing data, and to investigate their roles in CRSwNP.Methods:Utilizing four CRSwNP sequencing datasets, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), and three machine learning methods for Hub gene selection were performed in this study. Subsequent validation was carried out using external datasets, as well as real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time qPCR), and immunofluorescence staining of clinical samples. Moreover, the diagnostic efficacy of the genes was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, followed by functional and pathway enrichment analysis, immune-related analysis, and cell population localization. Additionally, a competing endogenous RNA (CeRNA) network was constructed to predict potential drug targets. Statistical analysis and plotting were conducted using SPSS 26.0 and Graphpad Prism9 software.Results:Through data analysis and clinical validation, CP, SERPINF1 and GSTO2 were identified among 4 138 DEGs as oxidative stress markers related to CRSwNP. Specifically, the expression of CP and SERPINF1 increased in CRSwNP, whereas that of GSTO2 decreased, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). Additionally, an area under the curve (AUC)>0.7 indicated their effectiveness as diagnostic indicators. Importantly, functional analysis indicated that these genes were mainly related to lipid metabolism, cell adhesion migration, and immunity. Single-cell data analysis revealed that SERPINF1 was mainly distributed in epithelial cells, stromal cells, and fibroblasts, while CP was primarily located in epithelial cells, and GSTO2 was minimally present in the epithelial cells and fibroblasts of nasal polyps. Consequently, a CeRNA regulatory network was constructed for the genes CP and GSTO2. This construction allowed for the prediction of potential drugs that could target CP. Conclusion:This study successfully identifies CP, SERPINF1 and GSTO2 as diagnostic and therapeutic markers related to oxidative stress in CRSwNP.

Objective:To explore the effect of family empowerment model on the improvement of swallowing care ability and care preparedness of primary caregivers of first-episode stroke dysphagia patients, further to explore its impact on patients′s wallowing function and life quality.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled study. From January 2021 to December 2022, 80 main caregivers of patients with dysphagia caused by manual stroke admitted to the Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Shenzhen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected as the research objects, and 40 cases in the control group and 40 cases in the observation group were selected by random number table method. The control group were treated with conventional nursing care of first-episode stroke dysphagia patients in the acupuncture and moxibustion Department. On the basis of the conventional care in the control group, the observation group were treated with family empowerment model intervention for 14 days and was followed up for 28 days. Primary caregivers′ swallowing care ability, Caregiver Preparedness Scale (CPS), patients′ swallowing function rate, Swallowing Related Quality of Life (SWALQOL) were used to evaluate the effects before intervention and at the end of intervention.Results:There were 18 males and 19 females primary caregivers in the control group, aged (55.61 ± 7.43) years old. There were 18 males and 21 females primary caregivers in the observation group, aged (58.23 ± 8.22) years old. The swallowing care ability score showed a statistically significant difference between the observation group (143.47 ± 3.96) and the control group (107.74 ± 1.43) ( t=-26.76, P<0.05). After intervention, the caregiver preparedness scale was (26.11 ± 3.81) in the observation group, and (18.35 ± 4.54) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-4.11, P<0.05).The patients′ swallowing function rate and SWALQOL score were respectively 97.44% (38/39) and (91.41 ± 8.08) points in the observation group, and 72.97% (27/37) and (80.33 ± 4.21) points in the control group, and the difference was both statistically significant ( χ2=10.76, t=-2.54, both P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of family empowerment model could enhance the swallowing care ability and care preparedness of primary caregivers of the first-episode stroke dysphagia patients, which could further improve patients′ swallowing function and life quality.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of paeoniflorin on glucose metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress in rats with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and its potential mechanism based on nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/ heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)/nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) signaling pathway. METHODS The female rats fed with high fat and high sugar diet and the male rats fed with an ordinary diet were caged, the successfully conceived rats were collected, and streptozotocin was injected intraperitoneally once to induce the GDM model. The successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into the model group, metformin hydrochloride group (200 mg/kg metformin by gavage), paeoniflorin low-, high-dose groups (45, 90 mg/kg paeoniflorin by gavage, respectively), paeoniflorin+ML385 group (90 mg/kg paeoniflorin by gavage and intraperitoneal injection of 30 mg/kg Nrf2 inhibitor ML385), with 12 rats in each group; in addition, another 12 conceived rats fed with an ordinary diet were selected as the control group. The rats in each drug group were given the corresponding drug/normal saline, once a day, for 2 consecutive weeks. Glucose metabolism indexes [fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS), insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR)], serum inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF- α)] and renal tissue oxidative stress indexes [superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)] were detected; the pathological changes of renal tissue were observed, and the protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1 in renal tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the renal tissue lesions of the model group were obvious, including glomerular atrophy, edema degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells and a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration; the levels of FBG and FINS, HOMA-IR, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in serum, and the level of MDA in renal tissue were significantly increased (P<0.05), while the levels of SOD and GSH-Px and the protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1 and NQO1 in renal tissue were significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the renal tissue lesions of rats in paeoniflorin low-dose and high-dose groups were reduced, the above quantitative indexes were significantly improved, and the improvement effect was better in high-dose group (P<0.05), while ML385 could significantly reverse the improvement effect of paeoniflorin on the above indexes (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Paeoniflorin can improve the abnormal glucose metabolism, inflammation and oxidative stress damage of renal tissue in GDM rats, which may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1/NOQ1 signaling pathway.
