Objective To investigate the effects of meropenem and amikacin on gut microbiota diversity and composition in a neonatal rat model of necrotizing enterocolitis(NEC).Methods Neonatal SD rats(1~2 d,weighing 5~10 g,both sexes)were subjected to establish a NEC model through artificial formula feeding,hypoxic-cold stress,and lipopolysaccharide(LPS)gavage.The rats were randomly divided into normal control group(Group C,n=12),NEC group(Group N,n=20),meropenem intervention group(Group M,n=20),and amikacin intervention group(Group A,n=20).Following modeling,Group M and Group A received intraperitoneal injections of meropenem(125 mg/kg)or amikacin(468 mg/kg),twice daily for 3 consecutive days.Groups C and N were administered an equal volume of normal saline.At the end of the intervention,colonic contents or fecal samples were collected.The gut microbiota structure was analyzed using 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing.Bioinformatics analysis was performed using the QIIME2 platform.Alpha diversity was evaluated using Chao1,Shannon,and Simpson indices.Beta diversity was assessed based on Bray-Curtis distance through principal coordinate analysis(PCoA)and non-metric multidimensional scaling(NMDS).Venn and UpSet plots were generated to visualize the composition and overlap of operational taxonomic units(OTUs).Linear discriminant analysis effect size(LEfSe)was applied to identify differentially abundant taxa across groups.Results High-throughput 16S rDNA sequencing showed that the N group had significantly lower 3 indices of α diversity than the C group(P<0.01),that is,a Chao1 index from 230 to 40,a Shannon index from 1.65 to 0.85,and a Simpson index from 0.65 to 0.42.After antibiotic intervention,both the M group and A group obtained obvious increases in the Chao1 index than the N group(P<0.001),with a greater increase observed in the M group than in the A group(P<0.05).However,neither antibiotic group exhibited notable improvements in the Shannon index or Simpson index compared with the N group(P>0.05).Venn and UpSet analyses revealed that the M group had the highest number of unique OTUs(283),while the A group shared the most OTUs(63)with the C group.PCoA and NMDS analyses indicated that the microbial structure of the A group was closer to that of the C group,with better clustering.Taxonomic composition and LEfSe analysis demonstrated that the N group was enriched with potentially pathogenic taxa such as Escherichia coli B2 and Klebsiella under the phylum Proteobacteria,while beneficial bacteria including Lactobacillaceae and Bifidobacteriaceae(phylum Firmicutes)were significantly reduced,indicating severe dysbiosis.In contrast,the A group exhibited a significant increase in beneficial bacteria and a structural tendency toward ecological recovery.The M group,however,was enriched with various conditionally pathogenic and environmentally associated genera,displaying a microbial configuration notably deviating from a healthy state.Conclusion Meropenem and amikacin exhibit differential regulatory effects on the intestinal microbiota in the context of NEC.Amikacin demonstrates superior efficacy in restoring microbial stability and levels of beneficial bacteria,whereas meropenem,although effective for early infection control,warrants caution due to its potential long-term impact on the gut microbiome.

The stability of ammonium ion selective electrode is an important indicator to ensure accurate monitoring of ammonia nitrogen concentration in drinking water.However,in long-term monitoring process,interfering ions and water molecules in water samples may penetrate into the interior of the ammonium ion selective electrode to form a water layer,which affects the potential response and stability of the electrode.Perfluorooctanoic acid is a low surface energy material,and doping it in polyaniline can reduce surface energy of the composite and improve surface roughness.In this work,five ammonium ion selective electrodes were prepared by doping polyaniline with different concentrations of perfluorooctanoic acid as a solid contact layer,which made the solid contact layer of electrode had hydrophobic properties,thereby improving stability of the ammonium ion selective electrode.The stability of the ion-selective electrode was evaluated by potential drift experiment,and the optimal doping concentration of perfluorooctanoic acid in the sediment solution was determined to be 5 mmol/L.The experiment results showed that the solid contact layer had a water contact angle of 132o under the doping concentration,the potential drift rate was 41.66 μV/h,and potential drift rate in the aqueous layer test was 1.31 mV/h,which were all better than those of the unmodified electrode.The standard deviation of the electrode potential was 1.42 mV,which was obviously superior to that of the unmodified electrode.The characteristics of high stability of the electrode made it suitable for long-term monitoring of ammonia nitrogen content in water samples.

Objective:This study aims to explore the predictive value of the ratio of caliceal pelvic height to infundibular length(CPH/IL)for the stone-free rate(SFR)in the treatment of lower calyx stones using flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy(FURL)combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and anatomical parameters of 312 patients with lower calyx stones or combined lower calyx stones admitted to the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from September 2022 to December 2023,all of whom were treated with FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath. Stone clearance was defined as no residual stones or residual stones with a diameter of ≤3 mm without any symptoms. Patients were divided into the clearance group(265 cases,84.90%)and the non-clearance group(47 cases,15.10%). There were no significant differences in gender(male/female:173/92 cases vs. 29/18 cases),age[(44.69 ± 13.14)years vs.(42.60 ± 10.93)years],degree of hydronephrosis(no hydronephrosis/mild hydronephrosis/moderate to severe hydronephrosis:122/85/58 cases vs. 21/12/14 cases),side of lower calyx stones(left/right:157/108 cases vs. 31/16 cases),maximum diameter of stones(MDS)[(19.23 ± 6.41)mm vs.(17.77 ± 6.18)mm],and CT value of stones[(993.46 ± 249.12)Hu vs.(1013.43 ± 300.90)Hu]between the two groups( P > 0.05),indicating comparability between groups. There was no significant difference in the distance from the midpoint of the lower lip of the renal pelvis to the ureter at the lowest plane of the lower calyx(K-A line)between the clearance and non-clearance groups[(26.16 ± 5.18)mm vs.(25.70 ± 8.66)mm, P > 0.05]. However,significant differences were observed in the infundibulopelvic angle(IPA)[(53.97 ± 15.72)° vs.(37.43 ± 15.39)°],infundibular length(IL)[(27.26 ± 5.11)mm vs.(33.04 ± 7.38)mm],infundibular width(IW)[(8.27 ± 2.82)mm vs.(7.09 ± 3.20)mm],caliceal pelvic height(CPH)[(19.96 ± 4.63)mm vs.(30.32 ± 7.56)mm],ureter-lower calyx distance(ULD)[(23.00 ± 5.59)mm vs.(18.78 ± 6.31)mm],CPH/IL ratio[(0.73 ± 0.11)vs.(0.92 ± 0.09)],and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis[(0.06 ± 0.01)mm -1 vs.(0.08 ± 0.03)mm -1]between the two groups( P <0.05). Univariate and logistic multivariate regression analyses were used to identify the independent risk factors affecting the postoperative SFR of FURL-treated lower calyx stones and to assess the value of CPH/IL for SFR in the treatment of lower calyx stones using FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath. A logistic multivariate regression model and a corresponding nomogram were constructed,and the predictive ability of the model for SFR was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve. The calibration curve and the Hosmer -Lemeshow test were used to assess the consistency and accuracy of the model. The clinical utility of the model was evaluated using decision curve analysis(DCA). Results:Univariate analysis revealed that seven anatomical parameters differed significantly between the clearance and non-clearance groups(all P < 0.05):infundibulopelvic angle(IPA, OR = 0.27,95% CI 0.17-0.42, P < 0.01),infundibular length(IL, OR = 2.52,95% CI 1.83-3.47, P < 0.01),infundibular width(IW, OR = 0.64,95% CI 0.45-0.90, P = 0.011),caliceal pelvic height(CPH, OR = 5.78,95% CI 3.67-9.10, P < 0.01),ureter-lower calyx distance(ULD, OR = 0.43,95% CI 0.30-0.63, P < 0.01),CPH/IL ratio( OR = 13.62,95% CI 6.86-27.03, P < 0.01),and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis( O = 3.15,95% CI 2.08-4.78, P < 0.01). Multivariate logistic regression further identified CPH/IL( OR = 9.87,95% CI 4.92-19.79, P < 0.01),IPA( OR = 0.41,95% CI 0.23-0.71, P = 0.001),and ULD( OR = 0.50,95% CI 0.29-0.87, P = 0.014)as independent risk factors influencing the stone-free rate after flexible ureteroscopic lithotripsy combined with a distally bendable negative-pressure suction sheath. The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of the univariate regression model showed that for IPA,the AUC was 0.788(95% CI 0.711-0.864);for IL,it was 0.731(95% CI 0.643-0.819);for ULD,it was 0.677(95% CI 0.586-0.767);for CPH,it was 0.867(95% CI 0.804-0.929);for IW,it was 0.628(95% CI 0.535-0.721);for CPH/IL,it was 0.906(95% CI 0.850-0.961)with an optimal cutoff value of 0.882,corresponding to a sensitivity of 83.02% and a specificity of 92.08%;and for curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis,it was 0.744(95% CI 0.662-0.827). The AUC of the multivariate regression model was 0.929(95% CI 0.884-0.974)with an optimal cutoff value of 0.364,corresponding to a sensitivity of 82.98% and a specificity of 95.09%. Calibration curves demonstrated close agreement between the predicted and actual stone-free rates after FURL(C-index = 0.921). The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test indicated no significant discrepancy between predicted and observed probabilities( P = 0.135,>0.05). Decision-curve analysis further revealed that basing clinical decisions on the model ,s predicted probability yields a higher net clinical benefit than either withholding FURL for all patients or treating all patients regardless of risk,and it also outperforms strategies guided by any single independent predictor alone. Conclusions:IPA,IL,IW,CPH,ULD,CPH/IL ratio,and curvature of the lower calyx of the renal pelvis can all predict the postoperative SFR of FURL combined with a distally bendable negative pressure suction sheath for the treatment of lower calyx stones to varying degrees. Among them,CPH/IL has the highest predictive value. When CPH/IL >0.88,it may be difficult to use FURL to treat lower calyx stones.

Diabetic encephalopathy(DE)is a complication of the central nervous system induced by diabetes,characterized by insidious onset and complex pathological mechanisms.Recent research has revealed that the pathological mechanisms of DE are closely associated with the imbalance of intercellular communica-tion across multiple organs.Exosomes,serving as vital media-tors of intercellular communication,are involved in the patholog-ical progression of DE and hold promise as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets for DE.Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)can improve communication between brain cells and be-tween peripheral and brain tissues by regulating exosomes and their contents,thereby preventing and treating DE.Meanwhile,exosomes,as targeted delivery carriers of active molecules,can carry TCM monomers more easily across the blood-brain barrier to prevent and treat DE.In light of this,this review summarizes the regulatory role of exosomes in the pathological progression of DE and explores the enormous potential of TCM in the preven-tion and treatment of DE by regulating exosomes and using exo-somes as traditional Chinese medicine carriers,aiming to pro-vide new evidence for the prevention and treatment of DE with TCM.
