Hepatic osteodystrophy is a common complication in patients with chronic liver disease and is influenced by various risk factors， and it has become one of the important influencing factors for the prognosis of liver transplantation. By analyzing the influencing factors for bone health and bone metabolism during the perioperative period of liver transplantation， this article emphasizes the importance of a comprehensive assessment of bone health and necessary interventions at this stage， with an aim to reduce the risk of postoperative complications and improve the long-term prognosis of patients. A deeper exploration of the association between hepatic osteodystrophy and the prognosis of liver transplantation can help to reveal the key influencing factors for postoperative outcomes， thus providing a theoretical basis for optimizing postoperative management strategies. Furthermore， advances in this research field will offer new insights into the treatment of patients receiving liver transplantation， and it is expected to further improve quality of life and long-term survival rate.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of video-based educational intervention combined with maternal presence on perioperative adverse outcomes in preschool children undergoing general anesthesia， including cooperation in anesthesia induction， perioperative anxiety， pain and agitation during recovery. MethodsA total of 300 preschool children scheduled for general anesthesia in our hospital from June to December 2023 were randomly assigned to control group （n=150） and intervention group （n=150）. The control group received routine recovery care. For the intervention group， in addition to routine recovery care， a preoperative visit was scheduled one day before surgery. During this visit， mothers were guided to watch anesthesia videos with their children. During the waiting period in the operating room and 30 minutes after awakening， the mothers were guided to accompany the children for more than 30 minutes. Recovery conditions were recorded using the surgical anesthesia information system， and the children’s anesthetic induction compliance， perioperative anxiety， pain， and agitation were evaluated and recorded using the modified Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale （m-YPAS）， the Induction Compliance Scale （ICC）， the Children’s Pain Behavior Scale （FLACC）， and the Pediatric Agitation and Emergence Delirium Scale （PAED）. ResultsOn the preoperative visit day， there were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups （P > 0.05）. For perioperative anxiety， the m-YPAS scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group， both when entering the operating room waiting area （35.27±6.48 vs. 41.79±6.68， P < 0.05） and 30 minutes after postoperative recovery （20.13±7.05 vs. 35.75±9.51， P < 0.05）. In terms of anesthesia induction cooperation， the ICC scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group （1.84±0.95 vs. 3.17±0.62， P < 0.05）， and the proportion of good induction cooperation was significantly higher than that of the control group （24.00% vs. 12.67%， P < 0.05）. There was no significant difference in awakening duration between the two groups， but the intervention group had a significantly shorter length of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit than the control group （0.90±0.29 hours vs. 1.29±0.42 hours， P < 0.001）. For perioperative agitation， the PAED scores of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group （entering in the operating room waiting area： 8.5 vs. 9.2， P < 0.05； 30 minutes after postoperative recovery： 4.2 vs. 7.8， P < 0.05）. In terms of pain scores， the FLACC scores of the intervention group were also significantly lower than those of the control group， both when entering the operating room waiting area （ 5.3 vs. 6.7， P < 0.05； 30 minutes after postoperative recovery： 2.1 vs. 4.9， P < 0.05）. ConclusionsVideo-based educational intervention combined with maternal presence reduces the perioperative anxiety， pain and agitation of preschool children undergoing general anesthesia， and improved the compliance of anesthesia induction. It is recommended to promote this intervention measure in clinical practice.

Purpose To compare the 5.0T gradient echo coronary magnetic resonance angiography(CMRA)using compressed sensing(CS)acceleration technology(5.0TCS-CMRA)vs.3.0T gradient echo-CMRA(3.0TCS-CMRA)using CS.Materials and Methods Twenty-five healthy volunteers aged 23 to 30 years from December 16,2023 to January 14,2024 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were prospective enrolled in this study.The interval between 3.0TCS-CMRA and 5.0TCS-CMRA was within two weeks.3.0TCS-CMRA used T2 preparation and 5.0TCS-CMRA did not use T2 preparation.The image quality scores,coronary artery length,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio between coronary blood and adjacent myocardium or tissue(CNRmyo-blood)were evaluated.Results On 5.0TCS-CMRA,the SNR and CNRmyo-blood of the proximal right coronary artery(RCA)in 25 healthy volunteers were significantly higher than those of 3.0TCS-CMRA(SNR:318.07±94.06 vs.223.81±51.19,t=-5.609,P<0.001;CNRmyo-blood:212.75±91.44 vs.149.70±59.53,Z=-3.619,P<0.001),while the SNR and CNRmyo-blood of proximal left anterior descending coronary artery(LAD)and left circumflex coronary artery(LCX)were not significantly higher than those of 3.0TCS-CMRA(SNR:315.52±102.49 vs.306.35±92.85,t=-0.627,P=0.536;289.72±88.79 vs.272.87±84.68,t=-1.226,P=0.232;CNRmyo-blood:135.83±93.53 vs.203.94±74.30,t=4.132,P<0.001;117.66±79.63 vs.161.60±78.91,t=3.127,P=0.005).The length of the three coronary arteries measured by 5.0TCS-CMRA was significantly shorter than that of 3.0TCS-CMRA[RCA:(126.04±31.54)mm vs.(137.20±29.93)mm,t=2.911,P=0.008;LAD:(122.68±24.63)mm vs.(134.24±23.38)mm,Z=-3.026,P=0.002;LCX:(57.07±26.70)mm vs.(68.27±24.02)mm,t=2.552,P=0.018].There was no significant difference in the scanning time required between 3.0TCS-CMRA and 5.0TCS-CMRA[(8.60±2.84)min vs.(8.30±2.32)min,Z=-0.183,P=0.855].The image scores of the three major coronary arteries of 5.0TCS-CMRA were significantly lower than those of 3.0TCS-CMRA(RCA:2.52±0.59 vs.3.16±0.69,Z=-3.258,P=0.001;LAD:2.72±0.74 vs.3.24±0.66,Z=-2.540,P=0.011;LCX:2.44±0.71 vs.3.00±0.87,Z=-2.462,P=0.014).Conclusion In the absence of T2 preparation,5.0TCS-CMRA can still show obvious advantages in the SNR and CNRmyo-blood of proximal RCA compared with 3.0TCS-CMRA,which suggests the application potential of 5.0TCS-CMRA.In the future,a suitable T2 preparation pulse or potential alternative may significantly improve the performance of the 5.0TCS-CMRA.

BACKGROUND:Long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)plays an important role in nervous system development and neurological diseases.Previous studies by the research team have demonstrated that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing erythropoietin(EPO-MSCs)under ischemic and hypoxic conditions have better neuroprotective functions and significantly activate the expression of LncRNA XIST.Research suggests that XIST is related to the pathogenesis of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy,but the role and mechanism of its regulation by EPO-MSCs in protecting ischemic-hypoxic neurons remain unclear.OBJECTIVE:To explore the new mechanism by which LncRNA XIST,in response to EPO-MSC signaling,affects the apoptosis of ischemic-hypoxic SH-SY5Y cells.METHODS:(1)SH-SY5Y cell lines with knockdown of LncRNA XIST(sh-XIST)and negative control(NC-XIST)were constructed through lentiviral transfection.Oxygen-glucose deprivation was used to induce ischemic-hypoxic injury in the cells.Transwell chambers were used to create a non-contact co-culture system with EPO-MSCs,sh-XIST,and NC-XIST ischemic-hypoxic SH-SY5Y cells.Cell proliferation ability was detected using the CCK-8 assay.Cell migration ability was assessed using the scratch assay,and cell apoptosis was measured by flow cytometry.(2)RNA-seq bioinformatics analysis was performed to screen for differentially expressed genes and pathways between sh-XIST and NC-XIST cell lines.Dual-luciferase experiments were used to verify the relationship between miR-124-3p and the target genes XIST and GRIN1.qRT-PCR was conducted to validate the expression levels of downstream miR-124-3p and GRIN1 genes.(3)miR-124-3p inhibitors and mimics were added to verify phenotypic changes in SH-SY5Y cells after ischemic-hypoxic injury and co-culture with EPO-MSCs.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the NC-XIST group,SH-SY5Y cells in the sh-XIST group showed reduced proliferation and migration abilities and increased apoptosis after ischemic-hypoxic injury and co-culture with EPO-MSCs.(2)Dual-luciferase experiments showed that miR-124-3p interacted with the target gene XIST.SH-SY5Y cells transfected with miR-124-3p mimics and co-cultured with EPO-MSCs showed decreased apoptosis after ischemic-hypoxic injury,while SH-SY5Y cells transfected with miR-124-3p inhibitors showed increased apoptosis after co-culture with EPO-MSCs.(3)Transcriptomic sequencing and bioinformatics analysis of sh-XIST revealed significant downregulation of the neuroactive ligand-receptor pathway and the key receptor gene GRIN1 for central nervous system development.(4)Dual-luciferase experiments showed that miR-124-3p interacted with GRIN1.GRIN1 expression was significantly downregulated in the sh-XIST group after ischemic-hypoxic injury compared with the NC-XIST group.These findings indicate that LncRNA XIST promotes GRIN1 expression by upregulating miR-124-3p,thereby reducing cell apoptosis after ischemic-hypoxic injury and co-culture with EPO-MSCs and enhancing proliferation and migration.sh-XIST can block this protective function.
