[Objective] To establish a method for detecting the potency of recombinant human coagulation factor Ⅶa for injection. [Methods] By adding the sample and factor Ⅶ deficient plasma to the sample cup and activating the reaction with prothrombin time assay reagent (PT reagent), the coagulation time of the sample was determined by the change in magnetic bead swing amplitude in the sample cup. The logarithm of coagulation time was inversely proportional to the logarithm of human factor Ⅶa potency. [Results] Under the experimental conditions, the specificity of the methodology was evaluated through spiked recovery, and the recovery rates ranged from 90.0% to 110.0%. Within the range from 0.125 to 1.000 IU/mL, there was a good linear response between the potency and coagulation time of the standard and sample, with correlation coefficients r>0.99. As for the accuracy and repeatability, the recovery rates of various concentrations detected in the stock solution were 101.0%, 100.0% and 112.0%, respectively, with RSD values of 2.6%, 4.0% and 0.0%, respectively. The recovery rates of various concentrations in finished product testing were 104.0%, 94.7% and 112.0%, respectively, with RSD values of 1.9%, 2.4% and 0.0%, respectively. As for the intermediate precision, the RSD were 4.5% and 3.7%, respectively. After treated with sample diluent, the sample was tested at room temperature for 6 hours and still exhibited relatively stable biological activity. [Conclusion] This detection method is accurate, stable, easy to operate and highly automated, and is suitable for detecting the potency of recombinant human coagulation factor Ⅶa for Injection.

AIM:To investigate the effects of Balanophora involucrata Hook.f.(BIH)extracts on bile acid metabolism and liver injury in mice with metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)through the gut mi-crobiota-farnesoid X receptor(FXR)axis,and to explore the underlying mechanisms.METHODS:Forty C57BL mice were randomly divided into control group,MAFLD model group,medium-dose BIH group,and high-dose BIH group.The mice in control group received a regular diet,while those in other groups were fed with high-fat diet for 12 weeks to induce MAFLD.The mice in medium-and high-dose BIH groups received 0.598 and 0.299 g/kg BIH solution,respectively,while those in control and MAFLD groups received an equivalent volume of normal saline.Serum levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)were measured using an automatic biochemical analyzer.Liver morphology,steatosis and fibrosis were assessed by HE,oil red O and Masson staining.Levels of TC,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in liver tissues,and bile acids in serum and ileum tissues were measured by ELISA.Protein expression of FXR and fibroblast growth factor 15(FGF15)in ileum tissues,and FXR,small heterodimer partner(SHP)and cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase(CYP7A1)in liver tissues were analyzed by Western blot.Intestinal microbiota changes were assessed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.RESULTS:(1)The MAFLD mice exhibited increased serum TC,TG,LDL-C and bile acid levels,liver TC,TNF-α and IL-6 levels,and lipid deposition.However,BIH intervention improved these factors and increased FXR and SHP pro-teins,but decreased CYP7A1 expression in the liver.The protein levels FXR and FGF15 in the ileum were also elevated.(2)Intestinal flora analysis demonstrated that BIH intervention improved the abundance and diversity of intestinal flora in MAFLD mice.Specifically,there was an increase in Bacteroidetes/Firmicutes ratio and a decrease in Proteobacteria and Verrucomicrobia.At the genus level,abundance of Duncaniella,Muribaculum and Paramuribaculum increased,while He-licobacter decreased.CONCLUSION:Treatment with BIH regulates intestinal flora,decreases FXR levels,enhances CYP7A1 expression,promotes bile acid synthesis,reduces hepatic cholesterol accumulation,and attenuates liver steato-sis and inflammation in MAFLD mice,indicating potential therapeutic effects.

Objective To investigate the effect of reactive oxygen species(ROS)/silent information regulator 1(SIRT1)on hyperoxia-induced mitochondrial injury in BEAS-2B cells.Methods The experiment was divided into three parts.In the first part,cells were divided into H0,H6,H12,H24,and H48 groups.In the second part,cells were divided into control group,H48 group,H48 hyperoxia+SIRT1 inhibitor group(H48+EX 527 group),and H48 hyperoxia+SIRT1 agonist group(H48+SRT1720 group).In the third part,cells were divided into control group,48-hour hyperoxia+N-acetylcysteine group(H48+NAC group),and H48 group.The ROS kit was used to measure the level of ROS.Western blot and immunofluorescent staining were used to measure the expression levels of SIRT1 and mitochondria-related proteins.Transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the morphology of mitochondria.Results Compared with the H0 group,the H6,H12,H24,and H48 groups had a significantly increased fluorescence intensity of ROS(P<0.05),the H48 group had significant reductions in the expression levels of SIRT1 protein and mitochondria-related proteins(P<0.05),and the H24 and H48 groups had a significant reduction in the fluorescence intensity of mitochondria-related proteins(P<0.05).Compared with the H48 group,the H48+SRT1720 group had significant increases in the expression levels of mitochondria-related proteins and the mitochondrial aspect ratio(P<0.05),and the H48+EX 527 group had a significant reduction in the mitochondrial area(P<0.05).Compared with the H48 group,the H48+NAC group had a significantly decreased fluorescence intensity of ROS(P<0.05)and significantly increased levels of SIRT1 protein,mitochondria-related proteins,mitochondrial area,and mitochondrial aspect ratio(P<0.05).Conclusions The ROS/SIRT1 axis is involved in hyperoxia-induced mitochondrial injury in BEAS-2B cells.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Objective:To understand the current status of discharge planning nursing for primipara who separated from their infants during hospitalization and provide a reference basis for constructing a clinical nursing plan.Methods:From February to June 2023, a field research about situation of nursing practice in discharge planning service among primiparas who separated from their infants was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Tongji University. Data was collected by field observation and informal interviews with 12 nurses and analyzed by three-level coding method of qualitative research.Results:All 12 nurses were female with 24-46 (33.33 ± 1.83) years old. The work content of the observation subjects could be divided into 4 items including providing infants′ health information, breastfeeding, postpartum rehabilitation, psychological care and social support. All the 4 items needed to be improved in providing infants′ health information, evaluating psychological status and social support, and quality of discharge teaching.Conclusions:It still needs further development in discharge planning nursing for primipara separated from their infants during hospitalization. It is urgent to improve the quality of discharge planning nursing for primiparas who have separated from their infants by developing scientific and standardized discharge planning nursing process, conducting standardized training for nurses, improving nurses′ psychosocial assessment ability, homogenizing health education, and improving humanistic care, so as to promote the rehabilitation of primiparas and get used to being a mother.

BACKGROUND:Immunotherapy enhances the anti-cancer immune response in many ways,so combined immunotherapy is a better choice.Ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction technique delivers drugs,genes,antibodies and cytokines directly to the cytoplasm of immune cells and enhances the immune response.However,the application of ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction technique in the treatment of ovarian cancer with both CXC chemokine receptor 4 antibody and programmed death-ligand 1 antibody has not been reported. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of ultrasound irradiation on the proliferation and migration of ovarian cancer cells with CXC chemokine receptor 4 antibody and programmed death-ligand 1 antibody double targeted nanobubbles. METHODS:IOSE-80 normal ovarian epithelial cells,SKOV3 and CAOV3 ovarian cancer cells were cultured and expanded.Double labeling fluorescence immunoassay was used to co-locate CXC chemokine receptor 4 and programmed death-ligand 1 protein.Western blot assay was used to detect the relative expression of CXC chemokine receptor 4 and programmed death-ligand 1 protein in three kinds of cells and screen out the experimental cells,i.e.,pure nanobubbles,nanobubbles carrying CXC chemokine receptor 4 antibody,nanobubbles carrying CXC chemokine receptor 4 and programmed death-ligand 1 antibody.SKOV3 ovarian cancer cells in the logarithmic growth phase were taken and divided into six groups for treatment.Group A was added with McCoy's 5A medium.Group B was added with McCoy's 5A medium containing stromal cell-derived factor-1.Group C was added with pure nanobubble solution and McCoy's 5A medium containing stromal cell-derived factor-1.Group D was added with nanobubble solution containing CXC chemokine receptor 4 antibody and McCoy's 5A medium containing stromal cell-derived factor-1.Group E was added with nanobubble solution containing CXC chemokine receptor 4 and programmed death-ligand 1 antibody and McCoy's 5A medium containing stromal cell-derived factor-1.Pure nanobubble solution was added in group F.After ultrasonic irradiation for 120 seconds and incubation for 48 hours,the survival rate of cells was measured by CCK-8 assay,and the healing and migration ability of cells in groups B-E were measured by wound healing test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Immunofluorescence staining showed that CXC chemokine receptor 4 and programmed death-ligand 1 protein could be expressed in all three kinds of cells.Western blot assay showed that the expression levels of CXC chemokine receptor 4 and programmed death-ligand 1 in SKOV3 and CAOV3 ovarian cancer cells were significantly higher than those in IOSE-80 normal ovarian epithelial cells(P<0.05).(2)CCK-8 assay results exhibited that the cell survival rate of group B was higher than that of group A(P<0.05).The cell survival rate of group F was lower than that of group A(P<0.05).The cell survival rate of groups B-E decreased gradually,and there were significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).(3)Wound healing test demonstrated that the cell healing rate of groups B-E decreased gradually,and there were significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05).(4)The results show that the use of CXC chemokine receptor 4 antibody and programmed death-ligand 1 antibody double targeted nanobubbles under ultrasound-targeted microbubble destruction can significantly inhibit the proliferation and migration of ovarian cancer cells.

The aim of this study was to investigate the virulence determinants and genetic diversity of foodborne Yersinia enterocolitica from Wenzhou.A total of 71 strains of Yersinia enterocolitica were isolated from food and foodborne diarrhea ca-ses in Wenzhou,and their biotypes,serotypes,and drug resistance were analyzed.On the basis of whole genome sequencing,we assessed virulence gene profiles,and performed multilocus sequence typing(MLST)and core gene multilocus sequence typ-ing(cgMLST).A total of 94.4％(67/71)of isolates belonged to biotype 1A,and the highest proportion had serotype lA/O∶5(29.6％,21/71).The sensitivity rates of the isolates to 14 antibiotics exceeded 95.8％.A total of 16 categories and 126 viru-lence genes were identified,with two strains carrying the pYV plasmid and chromosome-related virulence genes.ST3(31.6％,12/38)was the most widespread MLST type,and cgMLST analysis revealed no dense clusters of genotypes except for strains sharing the same ST.In conclusion,pathogenic strains were identified from foodborne Yersinia enterocolitica in Wenzhou and were found to exhibit high genetic polymorphism.Enhanced regulatory supervision is essential to prevent the outbreak of food-borne diseases caused by Yersinia enterocolitica.

Jinqi Jiangtang Capsule (JQJTC) is clinically used for the prevention and treatment of type 2 diabetes, but the contents of its main chemical components are not yet clear. In this study, an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was established for the determination of 15 components in JQJTC, including new chlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, cryptochlorogenic acid, formononetin, ononin, calycosin, calycosin-7-glucoside, astragaloside IV, berberine, epiberberine, berberrubine, coptisine, jatrorrhizine, palmatine and magnoflorine. The method was used to determine the contents of 15 components in the capsule and then to investigate the influence of excipients on the contents of the components in JQJTC. The separation was performed on a ACQUITY UPLC BEH C₁₈ column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) with a mobile phase consisting of 0.1% acetic acid and 5 mmol·L^-1 ammonium acetate (A) and acetonitrile (B) with gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.3 mL·min^-1 and a column temperature at 40 ℃. Electron spray ionization was used for mass spectrometry in positive ion mode. The established method meets the requirements of methodology of content determination in Chinese pharmacopoeia. The contents of 15 components in JQJTC varied from high to low. The top 5 contents were berberine, chlorogenic acid, magnoflorine, coptisine, and cryptochlorogenic acid, accounting for 87.31% of the total content. The contents of 10 components, including the alkaloids of coptidis rhizoma (berberine, epiberberine, berberrubine, coptisine, jatrorrhizine, palmatine and magnoflorine) and the organic acids of honeysuckle (new chlorogenic acid, chlorogenic acid, and cryptochlorogenic acid) in the whole formula extract without excipients was significantly lower than that in the capsule. These components accounted for 99.20% of the determined component contents. In this experiment, an accurate, sensitive and efficient UHPLC-MS/MS method for the determination of multi-components in JQJTC was established, which stably and reliably detected the contents of 15 components in the capsule and could provide the basis for more comprehensive quality analysis. It was also found that excipients had an increasing effect on the contents of detected alkaloid and organic acid components, which may be beneficial to the effectiveness of the capsules.

Objective To investigate the factors influencing the pregnancy outcomes during frozen-thawed embryo transfer(FET)cycles in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients'data from 882 FET cycles.According to the pregnancy outcome,the patients were divided into non-implantation group(Group A),abortion group(Group B1)and live birth group(Group B2).Clinical data and laboratory parameters were compared among the three groups,and ordered Logistic regression analysis was used to study the factors influencing pregnancy outcomes after FET.Patients were also divided into four groups(C1-C4)based on the number of high-quality embryos obtained(0-3,4-6,7-10,≥11),and their clinical data and laboratory parameters were compared.Results The clinical pregnancy rate,live birth rate,and miscar-riage rate in the 882 treatment cycles were 71.09%(627/882),61.68%(544/882),and 13.24%(83/627),respectively.Single-factor analysis showed significant differences in body mass index(BMI),infertility type,hu-man chorionic gonadotropin(hCG)day estradiol(E2)level,number of retrieved oocytes,and number of high-quality embryos among Groups A,B1,and B2(P<0.05).Further multiple Logistic regression analysis revealed that BMI(OR=1.046,95%CI:1.001-1.093,P=0.044)and a history of previous pregnancy(OR=1.417,95%CI:1.030-1.950,P=0.032)were independent risk factors for successful FET in PCOS patients,while an in-creased number of high-quality embryos was an independent protective factor for successful pregnancy.Based on the results of Group B2,compared to Group A,OR=0.920,95%CI:0.880-0.962,P=0.000;compared to Group B1,OR=0.923,95%CI:0.862-0.988,P=0.022.Compared with the other three groups(C1-C3),the total amount of gonadotropin(Gn)in the C4 group was the lowest and the number of oocytes obtained was the high-est(P<0.05).Multiple comparisons showed that Group C4 had lower BMI,follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),very low-density lipoprotein(vLDL)levels,a higher luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone(LH/FSH)ratio compared to Group C1(P<0.05).Group C4 had lower fasting insulin(FINS)and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)levels compared to Group C3,and higher high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)and apolipoprotein A1(Apo A1)levels compared to Groups C2 and C3(P<0.05).Con-clusion BMI,the history of previous pregnancy and the number of high-quality embryos were both independent factors for predicting pregnancy outcomes in PCOS patients undergoing FET cycles.Patients with a higher number of high-quality embryos have a higher clinical pregnancy rate during FET cycles.
