Objective:To evaluate the effect of exogenous short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) preconditioning on the expression of zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) in lung tissues of rats undergoing extracorporeal circulation (ECC).Methods:Thirty-six clean-grade healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 320-420 g, were divided into sham operation group (S group), ECC group (E group) and SCFAs group, with 12 rats in each group. Seven days before the ECC, short-chain fatty acids dissolved in 2 ml of normal saline was given by gavage daily in SCFAs group, while the equal volume of normal saline was given by gavage in S group and E group. On the 8th day, E group and SCFAs group underwent arteriovenous catheterization and ECC for 1 h, while S group only underwent catheterization without ECC. Lung tissues were collected to observe the pathological results and detect the expression of ZO-1 (by Western blot), and the wet/dry lung weight ratio was calculated.Results:Compared with S group, the wet/dry lung weight ratio was significantly increased ( P<0.05), the expression of ZO-1 protein in lung tissue was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage of lung tissues was aggravated in E group and SCFAs group. Compared with E group, the wet/dry lung weight ratio was significantly decreased, the expression of ZO-1 protein in lung tissues was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and the pathological damage of lung tissues was significantly alleviated in SCFAs group. Conclusions:The mechanism by which SCFAs preconditioning attenuates lung injury may be related to up-regulation of ZO-1 expression in lung tissues of rats undergoing ECC.

Objective To compare the safety and adverse effects of esketamine alone or fentanyl combined with propofol for interventional occlusion of congenital heart disease in children,so as to provide a more suitable sedation and analgesia plan for these patients.Methods A prospective randomized controlled study was adopted.A total of 104 cases of congenital heart disease,including 53 cases of atrial septal defect(ASD),31 cases of ventricular septal defect(VSD),and 20 cases of patent ductus arteriosus(PDA),who underwent interventional occlusion under general anesthesia while preserving spontaneous breathing from January to March 2025,were taken as the research subjects.The children were divided into two groups by random number table method:esketamine group(group ES)and fentanyl+propofol group(group AP),with 52 cases in each group.The children in the group ES and the group AP were anesthetized by esketamine 0.5 mg/kg and fentanyl 2 ug/kg+propofol 2.5 mg/kg,respectively,and sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia was maintained during the operation.The mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR),respiratory rate(RR)and pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)were recorded at the time of entry(T0),1 min after induction of general anesthesia(T1),femoral artery puncture(T2),occluder insertion(T3),recovery(T4),and 10 min after recovery(T5).The operation time,dosage of sevoflurane,anesthesia induction time and recovery time of the two groups were recorded.The occurrence of adverse events during general anesthesia was recorded,including hypoxemia after general anesthesia induction,respiratory depression and intraoperative body movement,restlessness during the recovery period,and increased secretion during the recovery period.Results There were significant differences in MAP,HR,SpO2 and RR in time points within each group,between two groups,and across the time×group interaction(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in operation time,dosage of sevoflurane,anesthesia induction time,and recovery time between the two groups(P>0.05).The incidence of hypoxemia in the group ES was significantly lower than that in the group AP[1.9%(1/52)vs.28.9%(15/52),χ2=14.477,P=0.000],the incidence of respiratory depression in the group ES was significantly lower than that in the group AP[0.0%(0/52)vs.11.5%(6/52),P=0.027],and the incidence of intraoperative body movement in the group ES was significantly lower than that in the group AP[0.0%(0/52)vs.11.5%(6/52),P=0.027].Conclusions During the three interventional occlusion procedures for congenital heart disease in children,compared with fentanyl combined with propofol injection,esketamine can better maintain the stability of respiratory circulation,and has a lower incidence of adverse events such as intraoperative hypoxemia,respiratory depression and intraoperative body movement.Compared with traditional anesthetic drugs,eketamine can be used as a better choice for sedation and analgesia during interventional occlusion for the three types of congenital heart diseases in children.

Objective To investigate the distribution of dense fine speckled(DFS)antinuclear antibody(ANA)in different ages,genders,and diseases,and to explore its clinical significance in the diagnosis of auto-immune disease(AID).Methods A retrospective summary was conducted on the clinical basic data of 53520 patients who visited the hospital from January 2022 to April 2024,as well as the results of indirect immunoflu-orescence(IIF)ANA fluorescence karyotype and titer,and immunoblotting ANA spectrum,and the relation-ship between DFS positivity and AID was analyzed.Results Of the 53 520 serum samples,the rate of ANA fluorescence positivity was 32.40％,with DFS-positive samples accounting for 1.18％of all ANA fluores-cence-positive samples.The male-to-female ratio of DFS positives was 1∶1.94,with the highest percentage of 51.9％in the 21-40 age group.Among DFS positive individuals,only 12.14％were clinically diagnosed with AID disease,significantly lower than other ANA fluorescent karyotype positive individuals(23.31％,P＜0.001).The overall positivity rate of ANA spectra using immunoblotting in DFS-positive individuals was 23.54％,which was significantly lower than that in other fluorescent karyotype positive ANA individuals(73.26％,P＜0.001).Moreover,DFS positive individuals were mainly accompanied by antibody positivity such as anti-Ro52 antibodies,which had no diagnostic specificity in AID diagnosis.When comparing DFS posi-tive individuals with similar fluorescence morphology to those with homogeneous nuclear granules and nuclei,at an ANA titer of 1∶100,the proportion of AID patients in homogeneous nuclear granules and nuclei was 20.04％,significantly higher than the proportion of AID patients in DFS positive individuals(9.44％,P=0.001).With the increase of ANA titer,the proportion of AID diseases significantly increased in both karyo-type samples.When the ANA titer of DFS positive samples was increased to ≥ 1∶320,the proportion of AID diseases significantly increased to 30.77％(P=0.002).Conclusion DFS is a rare ANA fluorescent karyo-type,and DFS positive individuals are mainly found in females aged 21-40,mostly non AID patients.Howev-er,high titers of DFS cannot rule out the possibility of AID.In clinical work,special attention should be paid to distinguishing it from the homogeneous nuclear granule type to avoid misdiagnosis.

Objective To summarize the experience of anesthesia management of transapical transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TA-TAVR).Methods Clinical data of 60 cases of TA-TAVR in the Cardiovascular Surgery Department of our hospital from January 2023 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed,including 34 cases of aortic stenosis and 26 cases of aortic insufficiency.According to the New York Heart Association(NYHA)functional classification,there were 4 cases of class Ⅱ,11 cases of class Ⅲ,and 45 cases of class Ⅳ.According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)classification,there were 12 cases of grade Ⅱ,44 cases of grade Ⅲ,2 cases of grade Ⅳ,and 2 cases of grade V.The European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation Ⅱ(EuroSCORE Ⅱ)score was 8.3％-54.1％[mean,(20.0±10.3)％].All the patients received general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation.Results Intraoperative ventricular fibrillation occurred in 3 cases.The median mechanical ventilation time of the 60 patients was 17 h(range,0-192 h),including 5 cases of 0 h(extubation in the operating room,which was ultra-fast track anesthesia),17 cases of extubation within 6 h after surgery(fast track anesthesia),31 cases of extubation between 6 and 48 h,and 7 cases of mechanical ventilation time＞48 h.Rescue analgesia after surgery was required in 8 cases.The median ICU stay time was 21 h(range,3-407 h),and the postoperative hospital stay was(7.8±4.5)d.Postoperative complications included 1 case of emergency thoracotomy because of artificial aortic valve dislocation,3 cases of permanent pacemaker implantation because of third-degree atrioventricular block,and 2 cases of tracheal intubation again because of hypoxemia.Conclusion Optimizing the anesthesia intervention measures(anesthesia details,anesthesia monitoring methods,and anesthesia analgesia plan)is helpful for early extubation,achieving ultra-fast track and fast track anesthesia of TA-TAVR.

Adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1) and Adiponectin receptor 2 (AdipoR2) can bind to adiponectin (AdipoQ) secreted by adipose tissue to participate in various physiological functions of the body. In order to explore the role of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 in amphibians infected by Aeromonas hydrophila (Ah), the genes adipor1 and adipor2 of Rana dybowskii were cloned by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and analyzed by bioinformatics. The tissue expression difference of adipor1 and adipor2 was analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and an inflammatory model of R. dybowskii infected by Ah was constructed. The histopathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE staining); the expression profiles of adipor1 and adipor2 after infection were dynamically detected by qRT-PCR and Western blotting. The results show that AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 are cell membrane proteins with seven transmembrane domains. Phylogenetic tree also shows that AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 cluster with the amphibians in the same branch. qRT-PCR and Western blotting results show that adipor1 and adipor2 were up-regulated at different levels of transcription and translation upon Ah infection, but the response time and level were different. It is speculated that AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 participate in the process of bacterial immune response, providing a basis for further exploring the biological functions of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 in amphibians.

Objective:To investigate the blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability changes in the deep white matter (DWM) during hypoperfusion caused by asymptomatic cerebral artery stenosis.Methods:The CT perfusion weighted imaging (CTP) images of 36 patients with asymptomatic severe stenosis and unilateral internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery, admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to April 2020, which revealed the prolongation of contrast medium delayed contrast medium max-time (Tmax), were analyzed. The regions of interest (ROIs) in the DWM of CTP images at the body of lateral ventricle and centrum semiovale, were drawn respectively: the anterior DWM (ROIa), middle DWM (ROIm), and posterior DWM (ROIp) in the stenotic side of maximum intensity projection maps; DWM with normal-appeared Tmax (ROI1), DWM with relatively delayed Tmax (ROI2), and DWM with obviously delayed Tmax (ROI3) in the stenotic side of Tmax maps; and their mirrored ROI on the healthy side. Statistical analysis was used to compare the value differences of Tmax, cerebral blood flow (CBF) and transfer constant (Ktrans) between/among the ROIs.Results:As compared with the mirrored ROI in the healthy side, respectively, the ROIa and ROIm in the stenotic side had significantly prolonged Tmax, significantly decreased CBF, and significantly increased Ktrans at the body of lateral ventricle ( P<0.05). As compared with the mirrored ROI in the healthy side, respectively, the ROIa and ROIp in the stenotic side had significantly prolonged Tmax, significantly decreased CBF, and significantly increased Ktrans at the centrum semiovale ( P<0.05). As compared with the mirrored ROI in the healthy side, respectively, the ROI2 and ROI3 in the stenotic side had significantly prolonged Tmax, significantly decreased CBF, and significantly increased Ktrans at the body of lateral ventricle and centrum semiovale ( P<0.05). In the stenotic side at the body of lateral ventricle, as compared with the mirrored ROIp, the ROIa and ROIm had significantly prolonged Tmax, significantly decreased CBF, and significantly increased Ktrans ( P<0.05). In the stenotic side at the body of lateral ventricle and centrum semiovale, as compared with the mirrored ROI1, the ROI2 and ROI3 had significantly prolonged Tmax, significantly decreased CBF, and significantly increased Ktrans ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The BBB permeability of DWM in the regions with delayed contrast medium Tmax is augmented when asymptomatic cerebral artery stenosis causes cerebral hypoperfusion.
