OBJECTIVE To analyze the safety and efficacy of vonoprazan (VPZ) in the treatment of peptic ulcer (PU) and post-endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) ulcers, providing evidence-based pharmaceutical evidence for clinical practice and medical decision-making. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library, meta-analyses/systematic reviews related to VPZ in the treatment of PU and post-ESD ulcers were collected. Two researchers independently performed literature screening, data extraction, quality assessment of included studies, and evaluation of literature overlap. By employing the umbrella review analysis, a fresh meta-analysis was conducted on all relevant raw research data when a high degree of overlap was identified among the included studies. RESULTS A total of 17 meta-analyses were included, with quality ranging from high to very low; all outcome measures involved showed a very high level of overlap in the included meta-analyses (corrected covered area: 22.22%-100%). In the treatment of post-ESD ulcers, compared to proton pump inhibitor (PPI), VPZ significantly improved the ulcer healing rate at 4 weeks post-ESD [RR=1.27, 95%CI (1.03, 1.56), Z=2.21, P= 0.027] and the ulcer contraction rate post-ESD [MD=0.08, 95%CI (0.00, 0.16), Z=2.09, P=0.037], while significantly reducing the ulcer recurrence rate in patients with a history of PU [RR=0.49, 95%CI (0.32, 0.73), Z=3.49, P=0.001]; the delayed bleeding rate in the VPZ group was significantly lower than that in the lansoprazole subgroup [RR=0.47, 95%CI (0.25, 0.90), Z=2.28, P=0.02]. In the treatment of PU, the incidence of adverse events with VPZ was significantly higher than that with PPI in the duodenal ulcer subgroup [RR=1.13, 95%CI (1.02, 1.26), Z=2.38, P=0.017]. CONCLUSIONS For post-ESD ulcers, VPZ demonstrates superior therapeutic efficacy compared to PPI and can reduce ulcer recurrence rates in patients with a history of PU. However, it does not offer advantages in terms of safety for duodenal ulcer treatment.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of ropivacaine in transversus thoracis muscle plane block (TTMP) combined with pecto-intercostal fascial plane block (PIFB) for postoperative analgesia in median sternotomy.METHODS A total of 70 patients who underwent median sternotomy at the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, from December 2025 to April 2026 were enrolled and randomly divided into the TTMP group (group T, n =35) and the TTMP combined with PIFB group (group TP, n =35). Both groups received 40 mL of 0.3% ropivacaine under ultrasound guidance. group TP received bilateral TTMP combined with PIFB, while group T received bilateral TTMP alone. The total consumption of sufentanil within 48 hours postoperatively, analgesic indicators (intraoperative total sufentanil consumption, time to first patient-controlled analgesia pump press, number of effective analgesia pump presses), recovery indicators (postoperative extubation time, length of ICU stay, time to first flatus, time to postoperative drainage tube removal, total length of hospital stay), circulatory indicators (heart rate and mean arterial pressure at different time points), postoperative pain scores [Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores at rest and during movement at different time points], and the incidence of adverse reactions (nausea and vomiting, CO 2 retention, delirium, respiratory tract infection) were compared between the two groups.RESULTS One patient in each group withdrew from the study. The total consumption of sufentanil within 48 hours postoperatively, all analgesic indicators, all recovery indicators, and VAS scores at rest and during movement in group TP were significantly better than those in group T ( P <0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in circulatory indicators or the incidence of most adverse reactions between the two groups ( P >0.05), but the incidence of postoperative CO 2 retention in group TP was significantly lower than that in group T ( P <0.05).CONCLUSIONS Compared with TTMP alone, ropivacaine in TTMP combined with PIFB provides effective analgesia, promotes early recovery, and has good safety in patients undergoing median sternotomy.

Hematologic malignancies,such as lymphoma,myeloma,and myeloid neoplasms,can occur in extramedullary tissues.Traditional histopathological morphology and immunohistochemical staining have lim-itations,including time-consuming specimen processing,prolonged reporting cycles,and relatively low sensi-tivity in cases of limited cell numbers.Flow cytometry offers significant advantages in detecting tissue sam-ples,such as rapid processing,shorter reporting cycles,and high accuracy and sensitivity,making it an effective complement to histopathological and immunohistochemical methods.However,the application of flow cytome-try in tissue sample detection currently lacks standardized protocols for sample collection and preservation,single-cell suspension preparation,antibody panel design for limited samples,data analysis,and result repor-ting.To promote the standardized application of flow cytometry in detecting hematologic tumor cells in tissue samples,the Cell Analysis Professional Committee of the Chinese Society of Biotechnology organized experts to develop the Chinese Expert Consensus on Flow Cytometry for Detecting Hematologic Tumor Cells in Tis-sue Samples(hereinafter referred to as the Consensus).This Consensus elaborates on the technical aspects of flow cytometry for tissue sample detection,covering sample processing,antibody panel design,data analysis,reporting content,and quality management.It particularly emphasizes recommended antibody panels and data analysis methods for flow cytometry when tissue sample cell counts are low.This article aims to interpret the key points of the Consensus to facilitate its better application in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the mechanism by which the sanguis draconis flavones(SDF)regulates the reactive oxygen species(ROS)/thioredoxin-interacting protein(TXNIP)pathway to mediate cell pyroptosis and improve cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)in rats.Methods The experimental rats were randomly divided into the control group(Ctrl),the CIRI group,the low-dose SDF group(SDF-L),the high-dose SDF group(SDF-H),and the SDF-H+ROS/TXNIP pathway activator,trimethylamine oxide(TMAO)group(SDF-H+TMAO).Among them,except for the control group,the remaining rats all needed to establish the CIRI rat model by the modified suture method.Zea Longa scoring was performed on rats from each group.ELISA was used to detect the levels of serum inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-1β,IL-18 and oxidative stress-related factors superoxide dismutase(SOD),malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px).Flow cytometry was used to measure the ROS levels.Cerebral edema was detected.Cerebral infarction was detected by 2,3,5-triphenyl tetrazolium chloride(TTC)staining.HE staining was used to detect the pathological changes of brain tissue.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of pyrolytic effector protein dermolin D(GSDMD).Western blotting was used to detect the expression of proteins related to the ROS/TXNIP pathway.Results Compared with the control group,a large area of cerebral infarctions were observed in the brain tissue of the CIRI group,accompanied by mild hemorrhage and obvious infiltration of inflammatory cells.Neuronal cells underwent degeneration and necrosis,with sparse and disordered arrangement.The phenomena of nuclear condensation and nucleolus lysis were obvious.The Zea Longa score,cerebral infarction volume,brain tissue water content,levels of IL-1β,IL-18,ROS,MDA,and the expressions of GSDMD,TXNIP,nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3),apoptosis-related punctate protein(ASC),and Caspase-1 increased,while the activities of SOD and GSH-Px decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the CIRI group,the pathological damage of brain tissues in the SDF-L group and the SDF-H group was significantly improved.The Zea Longa score,cerebral infarction volume,brain tissue water content,levels of IL-1β,IL-18,ROS,MDA,and the expressions of GSDMD,TXNIP,NLRP3,ASC,and Caspase-1 decreased.The activities of SOD and GSH-Px increased(P<0.05);TMAO treatment partially reversed the improvement effect of SDF on CIRI in rats.Conclusion SDF ameliorates cerebral CIRI in rats by inhibiting ROS/TXNIP pathway-mediated pyroptosis.

Objective:To investigate the expression characteristics of plasma proteins in patients with acute diquat poisoning by proteomic technology, and to screen the targets and biomarkers related to the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of acute diquat poisoning.Methods:This study was a retrospective case-control study. Patients with diquat poisoning admitted to Nanjing University Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital from August 2022 to December 2023 were enrolled. Healthy volunteers matched for age and gender during the same period were selected as the control group. The general clinical data and plasma samples were collected, and qualitative and quantitative analyses of plasma proteins were performed by proteomic technology based on nanoliter liquid chromatography tandem quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare differences of plasma protein expression between the two groups. Results:A total of 8 diquat poisoning patients and 7 healthy individuals were included in this study, and 491 plasma proteins were identified. Compared with control group, 76 differentially expressed proteins were obtained from the poisoned group, including 35 up-regulated proteins and 41 down-regulated proteins. GO analysis showed that the differentially expressed proteins were mainly associated with oxygen transporter activity, receptor binding, and hyaluronic acid-binding endopeptidase inhibitor activity. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis revealed that differentially expressed proteins were associated with complement and coagulation cascades, neutrophil extracellular trap formation, and platelet activation. In addition, the expression of adiponectin (ADIPOQ) was not only increased in poisoned patients, but also significantly higher in non-survivors than in survivors ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Multiple plasma proteins with abnormal expression may be involved in the pathological process of acute diquat poisoning. ADIPOQ may have potential application value in the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of acute diquat poisoning.

Background: Viral hepatitis causes annual deaths of 1.4 million people. Antiviral therapy rarely cures the disease, and patients are usually required to maintain lifelong medication, leading to cumulative drug toxicity. Schisandrae Fructus (SF) is efficacious in the treatment of viral hepatitis. Objective: The systematic review and meta-analysis aim to examine the efficacy and safety of SF alone or in combination with specific and nonspecific treatments for treating viral hepatitis by analyzing the clinical trials performed up to date. Methods: An extensive literature was searched in 7 databases from inception to May 2023. Final outcomes were divided into the primary outcomes containing the total effective rate and virological responses, as well as the secondary outcomes containing liver biochemical functions and frequencies of adverse events. RevMan 5.3 and GRADE pro 3.6 software were used for meta-analysis and assessment of evidence quality. Subgroup analysis was conducted to explore the source of the heterogeneity. Results: Twenty-nine randomized controlled trials were included in the meta-analysis. SF treatment was comparable with western medicines or other traditional Chinese treatments in terms of primary and secondary outcomes. In combination with specific treatments with antiviral medicines, SF group reduced 18.45 U/L of alanine aminotransferase levels [weighted mean difference: 18.45, 95% confidence interval (CI): (16.12, 20.78), p < 0.000 01] and 8.37 U/L of aspartate aminotransferase levels [weighted mean difference: 8.37, 95% CI: (1.25, 15.48), p = 0.02], and it decreased the levels of hyaluronic acid (HA) [standard mean difference (SMD): 0.92, 95% CI: (0.58, 1.27), p < 0.000 01], laminin (LN) [SMD: 0.64, 95% CI: (0.38, 0.90), p < 0.000 01], and procollagen type III [SMD: 0.48, 95% CI: (0.28, 0.67), p < 0.000 01], while increasing the total effective rate by 24% [risk ratio: 1.24, 95% CI: (1.15, 1.32), p < 0.000 01]. There were no severe adverse events during treatment. Conclusions: SF was a potential adjuvant for antiviral therapy in restoring liver function. However, the poor quality of the included randomized controlled trials limited the recommendations. More long-term, randomized, and double-blind studies should be performed to assess the efficacy and safety of combination therapy.
