Objective:To study the overall training effect of segmented training model on key fiberoptic bronchoscopy techniques for anesthesiology residents and the influence of key technique training order on the training effect.Methods:Different fiberoptic bronchoscopy simulators were used for specialized training in different key techniques of fiberoptic operation. To examine the effect of key technique learning order on the teaching effect, 40 anesthesiology residents who participated in fiberscope simulation training at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine between November 2022 and March 2023 were selected for this study. They were randomly divided into two groups (Group S and Group M) using a numerical table method. The teaching was completed using two orders of key techniques. The operation time, operation quality score, and theoretical knowledge mastery score of the two groups were recorded to compare the effect of key technique learning order on the mastery of fiberoptic skills. SPSS 29.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. Measurement data that conformed to normal distribution were expressed as mean ± standard deviation, and the independent samples t-test or Fisher's exact test were used for comparison between groups. The chi-square test was used for comparison of enumeration data. Results:After segmented training in each key technique, both groups of trainees were able to shorten the operation time of the corresponding key technique [SM simulator operation time (132.25±14.69) s vs. (49.80±4.46) s in group S, P<0.01; M simulator operation time (82.30±11.60) s vs. (57.10±6.77) s in group S, P<0.01; SM simulator operation time (83.10±10.62) s vs. (52.10±5.20) s in group M, P<0.01; M simulator operation time (132.25±14.69) s vs. (55.40±5.91) s in group M, P<0.01)]. Moreover, both groups showed a reduced number of wall touches [SM simulator wall touches (3.35±0.93) times vs. (0.65±0.49) times in group S, P<0.01; M simulator wall touches (2.50±1.05) times vs. (0.70±0.80) times in group S, P<0.01; SM simulator wall touches (1.55±1.15) times vs. (0.40±0.50) times in group M, P<0.01; M simulator wall touches (5.90±1.29) times vs. (1.10±0.79) times in group M, P<0.01]. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the performance score of fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation after training [(92.50±5.97) points vs. (91.75±5.45) points] and in the lung segment localization time [(23.15±4.39) s, (21.40±4.84) s, (22.85±4.42) s vs. (22.75±5.11) s, (21.00±5.40) s, (21.50±5.10) s]. Conclusions:Segmented training on key fiberoptic bronchoscopy techniques is an effective model of fiberscope training for anesthesiology residents, and the order of training key techniques does not affect the effectiveness of training.

Objective:To investigate the factors influencing recipient liver regeneration after full-size split liver transplantation (fSLT).Methods:The clinical data of patients undergoing split liver transplantation in the Affiliated Li Huili Hospital of Ningbo University from May 2019 to Sep 2023 were retrospectively collected. Graft volume (GV) and initial graft volume (IGV) at (30±7) days after operation were measured, and postoperative liver regeneration rate (LRR) was calculated. The patients undergoing fSLT were divided into high regeneration group and low regeneration group with LRR=30% as boundary. The differences of donor and recipient data and perioperative data between the two groups were compared.Results:A total of 52 patients were included. The low fSLT regeneration group (16 cases) was compared with the high fSLT regeneration group (36 cases), and in high fSLT regeneration group donor age was lower, the donor liver steatosis was less, GRWR was lower, the incidence of hepatitis B virus-related liver disease was lower, the postoperative diagnosis of malignant liver disease was lower, the intraoperative blood loss was less, and the postoperative platelet count was higher. The levels of liver enzyme and total bilirubin (TBiL) were higher than those in high regeneration group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Donor age, donor liver steatosis, GRWR, hepatitis B virus associated liver disease, and recipient pathogenesis are important factors affecting liver regeneration after fSLT. Postoperative platelet and liver enzyme levels are important indicators for monitoring liver regeneration after fSLT.

Purpose To investigate whether ketogenic diet(KD)can promote cognition by regulating brain metabolism and neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease model mice.Materials and Methods Twenty male APP/PS1 mice were randomly assigned to either a KD group(APP/PS1+KD)or a regular diet group(APP/PS1),with 10 mice in each group.Additionally,10 wild-type C57BL/6 male mice served as the control group.The APP/PS1+KD group was fed with a ketogenic feed,the APP/PS1 group received a regular diet,and the control group was maintained on standard chow for a duration of 4 months.Blood ketone levels of mice were monitored after 4 weeks and 4 months of continuous feeding.Cognitive function was assessed via the morris water maze.18F-FDG and 18F-DPA-714 micro PET/CT were performed to evaluate the effects of KD on glucose metabolism and neuroinflammation across various brain regions in the Alzheimer's disease mice.Following PET/CT imaging,brain tissue samples were collected,and the hippocampal Cal region was selected for paraffin sectioning to detect the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein and ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 through immunofluorescence analysis.Results In the Morris water maze in the fourth month,compared with the control group,the APP/PS1 group had a significantly longer escape latency on days 3-4(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the APP/PS1 group showed a significant decrease in relative 18F-FDG uptake in brain regions such as the striatum,hippocampus,dorsal thalamus,central gray matter,superior colliculus,olfactory bulb,and midbrain(P<0.01,P<0.05).Compared with the APP/PS1 group,the APP/PS1+KD group showed a significant increase in relative 18F-FDG uptake in the hippocampus and dorsal thalamus(P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the APP/PS1 group showed a significant increase in relative uptake of 18F-DPA-714 in brain regions such as the striatum,hippocampus and hypothalamus(P<0.05 or P<0.001).Compared with the APP/PS1 group,the APP/PS1+KD group decreased the relative uptake of 18F-DPA-714 in the hippocampus(P<0.01).Compared with the control group and APP/PS1+KD group,the fluorescence intensity of glial fibrillary acidic protein and ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1 protein in the brain(hippocampus)of APP/PS1 group mice was significantly increased(both P<0.01).Conclusion KD has the potential to ameliorate cognitive and behavioral deficits in APP/PS1 mice by enhancing brain metabolism and attenuating neuroinflammation.

BACKGROUND:Overactive osteoclasts disrupt bone homeostasis and play a bad role in the pathological mechanisms of related skeletal diseases,such as osteoporosis,fragility fractures,and osteoarthritis.Studies have confirmed that ellagic acid and ellagtannin have the potential to inhibit osteoclast differentiation.As their natural metabolites,urolithin A has antioxidant,anti-inflammatory,anti-proliferative and anti-cancer effects,but its effect on osteoclast differentiation and its underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of urolithin A on osteoclast differentiation induced by receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand and its mechanism. METHODS:Mouse mononuclear macrophage leukemia cells(RAW264.7)that grew stably were cultured in vitro.Toxicity of urolithin A(0,0.1,0.5,1.5,2.5 μmol/L)to RAW264.7 cells were detected by cytotoxic MTS assay to screen out the safe concentration.Different concentrations of urolithin A were used again to intervene with receptor activator for nuclear factor-κB ligand-induced differentiation of RAW264.7 cells in vitro.Then,tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining and F-actin ring and nucleus staining were performed to observe its effect on the formation and function of osteoclasts.Finally,the expressions of urolithin A on upstream and downstream genes and proteins in the MAPK signaling pathway were observed by western blot and RT-qPCR assays. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Urolithin A inhibited osteoclast differentiation and F-actin ring formation in a concentration-dependent manner and 2.5 μmol/L had the strongest inhibitory effect.Urolithin A inhibited the mRNA expression of Nfatc1,Ctsk,Mmp9 and Atp6v0d2 and the protein synthesis of Nfatc1 and Ctsk,related to osteoclast formation and bone resorption.Urolithin A inhibited the activity of osteoclasts by downregulating the phosphorylation of p38 protein to inhibit the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway.
