A high-performance liquid chromatographic(HPLC)method for the assay of pregabalin gastric retention sustained-release tablets was established,successfully solving the problem of low recovery of pregabalin through a special sample pretreatment method.By comparing salting-out and excipient dispersion,the pretreatment methods to overcome the viscosity of the test solution were established.Both methods can be used for the determination of the product content,but the salting-out method is easier to operate.The HPLC conditions were Inertsil ODS-3(4.6 mm×0.25 m,5 μm)column with mobile phase of 3.4 g/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate(pH adjusted to 6.3 by ammonia)and methanol(85︰15);the column temperature was 30℃;the flow rate was 1.0 mL/min;the sample size was 50 μL;and the detection wavelength was 210 nm.Through the validation of the salting-out method,the average recovery of the drug was 99.74%and the RSD was 0.43%;the precision test RSD was 0.77%;the test solution was stable within 12 h;the chromatographic system had good durability;and the excipient did not interfere with the content detection.The method is stable,reliable and suitable for the assay of pregabalin gastric retention sustained release tablets.

Objective To explore the effect and prognostic factors of intravenous thrombolysis combined with Trevo stent mechanical thrombectomy in the treatment of ischemic stroke.Methods A total of 120 patients with ischemic stroke diagnosed and treated in our hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected as research objects and divided into two groups according to random number table method,with 60 cases in each group.Both groups were given basic treatment,the control group was given intravenous thrombolytic therapy,and the observation group was given intravenous thrombolytic therapy combined with mechanical thrombectomy with Trevo stent.The clinical efficacy of the two groups was observed,and the patients were divided into a good prognosis group(46 cases)and a poor prognosis group(74 cases)according to the prognosis.Clinical data such as gender,age,BMI,combined hypertension,combined diabetes,smoking,treatment methods,complete vascular recirculation rate,preoperative NIHSS score and postoperative NIHSS score of the two groups were collected.The independent prognostic factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate binary Logistic regression.Results The total effective rate of the study group was significantly higher 88.33％(53/60)than that of the control group 73.33％(44/60),and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Univariate analysis showed that there were no statistically significant differences in gender,BMI,diabetes mellitus,and preoperative NIHSS score between the two groups(P＞0.05),while there were statistically significant differences in age,hypertension,smoking,treatment style,complete vascular revasculosity,and postoperative NIHSS score between the two groups(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age,treatment style and complete vascular revasculopathy rate were independent factors affecting the prognosis of ischemic stroke patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion Intravenous thrombolysis combined with mechanical thrombectomy with Trevo stent can improve the clinical efficacy and prognostic quality of ischemic stroke patients in the time window of intravenous thrombolysis.In addition,the prognosis of patients with ischemic stroke is also closely related to the age of patients and the rate of complete vascular recirculation after surgery.

Objective:To investigate the early clinical characteristics of elderly patients with severe burns and the risk factors on prognosis.Methods:This study was a retrospective case series study. Clinical data of 124 elderly patients with severe burns who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the 12 hospitals from January 2015 to December 2020 were collected, including 4 patients from the Fourth People's Hospital of Dalian, 5 patients from Fujian Medical University Union Hospital, 22 patients from Guangzhou Red Cross Hospital of Jinan University, 5 patients from Heilongjiang Provincial Hospital, 27 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, 9 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, 10 patients from Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University, 9 patients from Tongren Hospital of Wuhan University & Wuhan Third Hospital, 12 patients from the 924 th Hospital of PLA, 6 patients from Zhangjiagang First People's Hospital, 4 patients from Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province, and 11 patients from Zhengzhou First People's Hospital. The patients' overall clinical characteristics, such as gender, age, body mass index, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, inhalation injury, causative factors, whether combined with underlying medical diseases, and admission time after injury were recorded. According to the survival outcome within 28 days after injury, the patients were divided into survival group (89 cases) and death group (35 cases). The following data of patients were compared between the two groups, including the basic data and injuries (the same as the overall clinical characteristics ahead); the coagulation indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time, D-dimer, fibrinogen degradation product (FDP), international normalized ratio (INR), and fibrinogen; the blood routine indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as white blood cell count, platelet count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, monocyte count, red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit; the organ function indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, urea, serum creatinine, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, total protein, albumin, globulin, blood glucose, triglyceride, total cholesterol, alkaline phosphatase, creatine kinase, electrolyte indexes (potassium, sodium, chlorine, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus in blood), uric acid, myoglobin, and brain natriuretic peptide; the infection and blood gas indexes within the first 24 hours of injury such as procalcitonin, C-reactive protein, pH value, oxygenation index, base excess, and lactate; treatment such as whether conducted with mechanical ventilation, whether conducted with continuous renal replacement therapy, whether conducted with anticoagulation therapy, whether applied with vasoactive drugs, and fluid resuscitation. The analysis was conducted to screen the independent risk factors for the mortality within 28 days after injury in elderly patients with severe burns. Results:Among 124 patients, there were 82 males and 42 females, aged 60-97 years, with body mass index of 23.44 (21.09, 25.95) kg/m 2, total burn area of 54.00% (42.00%, 75.00%) total body surface area (TBSA), and full-thickness burn area of 25.00% (10.00%, 40.00%) TBSA. The patients were mainly combined with moderate to severe inhalation injury and caused by flame burns. There were 43 cases with underlying medical diseases. The majority of patients were admitted to the hospital within 8 hours after injury. There were statistically significant differences between patients in the 2 groups in terms of age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, and inhalation injury, and PT, APTT, D-dimer, FDP, INR, white blood cell count, platelet count, urea, serum creatinine, blood glucose, blood sodium, uric acid, myoglobin, and urine volume within the first 24 hours of injury (with Z values of 2.37, 5.49, 5.26, 5.97, 2.18, 1.95, 2.68, 2.68, 2.51, 2.82, 2.14, 3.40, 5.31, 3.41, 2.35, 3.81, 2.16, and -3.82, respectively, P<0.05); there were statistically significant differences between two groups of patients in whether conducted with mechanical ventilation and whether applied with vasoactive drugs (with χ2 values of 9.44 and 28.50, respectively, P<0.05). Age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine within the first 24 hours of injury, and APTT within the first 24 hours of injury were the independent risk factors for the mortality within 28 days after injury in elderly patients with severe burns (with odds ratios of 1.17, 1.10, 1.10, 1.09, and 1.27, 95% confidence intervals of 1.03-1.40, 1.04-1.21, 1.05-1.19, 1.05-1.17, and 1.07-1.69, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:The elderly patients with severe burns had the injuries mainly from flame burns, often accompanied by moderate to severe inhalation injury and enhanced inflammatory response, elevated blood glucose levels, activated fibrinolysis, and impaired organ function in the early stage, which are associated with their prognosis. Age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, and serum creatinine and APTT within the first 24 hours of injury are the independent risk factors for death within 28 days after injury in this population.

Objective:To investigate the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic cold snare resection of small colorectal polyps and prophylactic hemostatic clip.Methods:A total of 260 patients diagnosed as having small colorectal polyps in Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital from January 2021 to March 2022 were randomly assigned to cold snare polypectomy (CSP) group (receiving CSP), CSP+hemostatic clip group (receiving CSP+prophylactic hemostatic clip), hot snare polypectomy (HSP) group, and HSP +hemostatic clip group (receiving HSP+prophylactic hemostatic clip). Each group had 65 cases. The treatment, incidence of bleeding, and other complications were compared.Results:There was no significant difference in the basic characteristics of patients or polyps among the four groups ( P>0.05). Immediate intraoperative bleeding occurred in 5 cases (7.69%), 4 cases (6.15%), 3 cases (4.62%), and 3 cases (4.62%) in the four groups respectively with no significant difference ( χ2=0.778, P=0.855), while only 1 delayed postoperative bleeding was observed in HSP group with no significant difference among the four groups ( χ2=3.012, P=0.390). The incidence of postoperative abdominal pain was the highest in the HSP group ( n=7, 10.77%) significantly different from those of the CSP group ( n=1, 1.54%) and the CSP+hemostatic clip group ( n=1, 1.54%) ( P<0.05). Polypectomy time of single polyp in CSP group was the shortest (2.18±1.07 min) , followed by HSP group (2.83±0.82 min), then CSP+hemostatic clip group (3.15±1.16 min), with HSP+hemostatic clip group (4.88±1.85 min) being the longest ( F=50.397, P<0.001). Conclusion:It is suggested to use CSP for small colorectal polyps. If there is no risk of bleeding or perforation during the operation, it is not necessary to use prophylactic hemostatic clips.

Objective:To compare the diagnostic efficacy of 18F-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 PET/CT and mpMRI in the diagnosis of pelvic lymph node metastasis of prostate cancer (PCa). Methods:The clinical data of 30 patients who underwent 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT and mpMRI examinations in Sichuan Cancer Hospital from November 2018 to April 2021 were analyzed. The average age was (68.4±6.4) years old. The preoperative total PSA was 45.70(16.07, 100.00)ng/ml. Among 30 patients, 14 cases were found lymph node positive by PET/CT and 7 cases were found lymph node positive by mpMRI.Combined with the two preoperative imaging methods and the patient's PSA level, there was 1 patient in stage T 1, 20 patients in stage T 2, 6 patients in stage T 3, and 3 patients in stage T 4. Twenty-nine cases were classified as high risk group and one case was in moderate risk group.All 30 patients underwent laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and enlarged pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND). According to the postoperative pathological results, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the two imaging techniques for the diagnosis of PCa pelvic lymph node metastasis were calculated, and the consistency of the two imaging techniques for the postoperative pathological results was observed by Kappa test. Results:All the 30 patients were confirmed to be PCa by postoperative pathology, among which 10 patients were positive for pelvic lymph node biopsy. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT for pelvic lymph node metastasis were 100.0% (10/10), 80.0% (16/20), 71.4%(10/14) and 100.0%(16/16) respectively, and Kappa value was 0.727. The sensitivity and specificity of mpMRI were 70.0% (7/10) and 100.0% (20/20), the positive and negative predictive values were 100.0% (7/7) and 87.0%(20/23)respectively, and the Kappa value was 0.757. The P values of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value between the two imaging methods were 0.18, 0.07, 0.30, <0.01, respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT in diagnosing the number of pelvic lymph node metastasis were 100%(28/28), 98.2% (373/380), 80.0% (28/35) and 100.0%(373/373), respectively. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of mpMRI in diagnosing the number of pelvic lymph node metastasis were 78.6% (22/28), 100.0% (380/380), 100.0% (22/22) and 98.4%(380/386), respectively. The P values of the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of lymph node detection by the two imaging methods were all <0.01, and the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions:The sensitivity and negative predictive value of 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT for the detection of positive lymph node were higher than mpMRI. The specificity and positive predictive value of mpMRI in detecting positive lymph node metastasis were higher than 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT examination.

Exploiting cells as vehicles combined with nanoparticles combined with therapy has attracted increasing attention in the world recently. Red blood cells, leukocytes and stem cells have been used for tumor immunotherapy, tissue regeneration and inflammatory disorders, and it is known that neutrophils can accumulate in brain lesions in many brain diseases including depression. -Acetyl Pro-Gly-Pro (PGP) peptide shows high specific binding affinity to neutrophils through the CXCR2 receptor. In this study, PGP was used to modify baicalein-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (PGP-SLNs) to facilitate binding to neutrophils . Brain-targeted delivery to the basolateral amygdala (BLA) was demonstrated by enhanced concentration of baicalein in the BLA. An enhanced anti-depressant effect was observed and The mechanism involved inhibition of apoptosis and a decrease in lactate dehydrogenase release. Behavioral evaluation carried out with rats demonstrated that anti-depression outcomes were achieved. The results indicate that PGP-SLNs decrease immobility time, increase swimming time and climbing time and attenuate locomotion in olfactory-bulbectomized (OB) rats. In conclusion, PGP modification is a strategy for targeting the brain with a cell-nanoparticle delivery system for depression therapy.

Stem cell research has become a frontier in the field of life sciences, and provides an ideal model for exploring developmental biology problems such as embryogenesis, histiocytosis, and gene expression regulation, as well as opens up new doors for clinical tissue defective and inheritance diseases. Among them, menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs) are characterized by wide source, multi-directional differentiation potential, low immune rejection characteristics. Thus, MenSCs can achieve individual treatment and have the most advantage of the clinical application. The central nervous system, including brain and spinal cord, is susceptible to injury. And lethality and morbidity of them tops the list of all types of trauma. Compared to peripheral nervous system, recovery of central nervous system after damage remains extremely hard. However, the treatment of stem cells, especially MenSCs, is expected to solve this problem. Therefore, biological characteristics of MenSCs and their treatment in the respect of central nervous system diseases have been reviewed at home and abroad in recent years, so as to provide reference for the treatment of central nervous system diseases.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical effect of immediate ureterovesical reimplantation after ureteral rupture during laparoscopic hysterectomy. Methods From August 2010 to December 2015, 5 cases of ureteral rupture during the operation of laparoscopic hysterectomy were treated with immediate ureterovesical reimplantation under laparoscopy. Results All operations were successfully performed without transversion to open surgery. No patients with urinary leakage occurred. The mean follow-up were 21 months (range 3-60 months) . No cases with ureteral stricture were observed. Slight urine reflux was found in two patients, of whom obvious hydronephrosis and renal damage were not found. Conclusion Immediate ureterovesical reimplantation under laparoscopy is a feasible, safe and minimal invasive method for treatment of ureteral ruputure during laparoscopic hysterectomy.
