This study aims to prepare nanobodies for the epitopes of spike protein(S)of porcine ep-idemic diarrhea virus(PEDV),and verify its reactivity.The expression vector pCZN1-SN was con-structed by the prokaryotic expression system,and SN fragment was expressed in prokaryotic ex-pression and purified by Ni-NTA chromatography column.The SN nanobodies were displayed u-sing phage display technology and screened from the natural nanobody library.The results showed that SN fragments with a size of 26 kDa were obtained by prokaryotic induction,and the specific nanobodies were obtained through three rounds screening by phage display technology.One strain with the best reactivity was selected for prokaryotic expression and purified.The nanobodies were obtained with a size of 14 kDa by Western blot and demonstrated to have a good binding ability to PEDV SN protein.In summary,nanobodies with epitope fragments of PEDV S protein were suc-cessfully screened and prepared based on the phage display technology,which provided a new way for the in-depth application of nanobodies.

To summarize the nursing experience of a patient with pancreatic cancer who underwent total pancreatectomy combined with islet cell transplantation.Nursing points:goal-oriented management of endocrine function,being alert to the occurrence of"brittle diabetes";the dose of pancreatic enzymes was dynamically adjusted by doctors and nurses to improve exocrine insufficiency;the whole-process nutritional risk assessment and individualized nutritional support strategies were implemented.Early identification and standardized management of gastroparesis syndrome can improve gastric motility of patients.After careful treatment and nursing care,the patient's islet function was stable,and the endocrine and exocrine functions of the pancreas recovered well.The patient was discharged 15 days after the operation.During the follow-up of 2 months,the patient's condition was stable,and no serious blood glucose disorder and other serious complications occurred.

Acute liver injury (ALI) serves as a critical precursor and major etiological factor in the progression and ultimate manifestation of various hepatic disorders. The prevention and treatment of ALI is still a serious global challenge. Given the limited therapeutic options for ALI, exploring novel targeted therapeutic agents becomes imperative. The potential therapeutic efficacy of inhibiting RIPK2 is highlighted, as it may provide significant benefits by attenuating the MAPK pathway and NF-κB signaling. Herein, we propose a CMD-OPT model, a two-stage molecular optimization tool for the rapid discovery of RIPK2 inhibitors with optimal properties. Compound RP20, which targets the ATP binding site, demonstrated excellent kinase specificity, ideal oral pharmacokinetics, and superior therapeutic effects in a model of APAP-induced ALI, positioning RP20 as a promising preclinical candidate. This marks the first application of RIPK2 inhibitors in ALI treatment, opening a novel therapeutic pathway for clinical applications. These results highlight the efficacy of the CMD-OPT model in producing lead compounds from known active molecules, showcasing its significant potential in drug discovery.

Objective To explore the differences in neural activity between patients with anorexia nervosa(AN)and healthy controls(HC),as well as the association between these differences and symptoms in AN patients,using activation likelihood estimation(ALE)meta-analysis.Methods The literature search covered the period from 2000 to March 2025.From a pool of 588 identified studies,4 studies focusing on the neural activity differences between AN patients and HC were selected for inclusion.These studies comprised 106 participants and 21 sets of coordinates.The ALE meta-analysis method was employed,and the GingerALE software was used to systematically analyze the reported brain region changes and their peak coordinates,aiming to investigate the differences in brain functional activity between AN patients and HC.Results Compared to the HC group,AN group showed significantly enhanced activation in the left parahippocampal gyrus/amygdala(ALE value=0.39×10-2),right parahippocampal gyrus/amygdala(ALE value=0.39×10-2)and suboccipital gyrus(ALE value=0.39×10-2),along with a significant reduction in activation in Brodmann area 17(ALE value=0.61×10-2)(P<0.01,FWE corrected).Conclusion Key brain regions in AN patients including the parahippocampal gyrus,inferior occipital gyrus,and amygdala demonstrate significant functional activation abnormalities.

Objective To establish the methods of galvanic vestibular stimulation-vestibular evoked myogenic potentials(GVS-VEMPs)in healthy children and to obtain the normal value of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in these children in China.Methods Twenty(3~14 years)healthy children and 24 healthy adults(18~30 years)were enrolled for conventional examinations of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP.Using the galvanic stimulation in-tensity under 3 mA/1 ms for children and 5 mA/1 ms for adults.The characteristics of elicitation and parameter re-sults of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in children and adults,as well as the pain scores and the elicitation of differ-ent stimulus intensities in the two age groups were recorded.Results The elicitation of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP were both 100.0%in children and adult groups.The p1 latency,n1 latency and p1-n1 interval latency of GVS-cVEMP were 10.46±1.84 ms,16.98±2.12 ms and 6.52±1.42 ms respectively in children group,the n1 la-tency and p1-n1 interval latency were significantly shorter than the adult group(P<0.05).The n1 latency,p1 la-tency and p1-n1 interval latency of GVS-oVEMP were 8.87±1.40 ms,12.25±1.80 ms and 3.39±1.07 ms re-spectively in children group with no significant difference between the two groups.The thresholds of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP in children group were significantly lower than adult group(P<0.01),but no differences were found in adult group regarding on the amplitude and interaural amplitude asymmetry ratio.In addition,with the in-crease of the intensity of galvanic stimulation,the correlation between pain scores and the elicitation rates of GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP also increased.Conclusion Using appropriate stimulus intensity and recording methods,GVS-cVEMP and GVS-oVEMP could be successfully assessed and detected in healthy children over 3 years old and adolescents.The latency of GVS-cVEMP in children is slightly shorter than that in adults,therefore we recommend selecting the matched age group for assessment in the children group.

Objective:
Metastases in the supragastric lesser sac (SGLS) are not only occult but are also barriers to complete resection of ovarian cancer. We describe a cohort of patients with SGLS disease undergoing debulking surgery.
Methods:
We identified all patients who underwent evaluation and eventual resection of SGLS disease as part of cytoreductive surgery for stage IIIC–IVB high-grade epithelial ovarian cancer at our institution from January 2018 to August 2022.
Results:
Thirty-three of 286 patients (11.5%) underwent resection of SGLS disease.Metastases in the SGLS were identified by preoperative imaging in 4 of 33 patients (12.1%). The median peritoneal cancer index score was 22 (range, 9–33). Through surgical exploration, metastases were frequently seen in the right diaphragm (100%), hepatorenal recess (97%), lesser omentum (81.8%), left diaphragm (78.8%), supracolic omentum (75.8%), anterior transverse mesocolon (72.7%), splenic hilum (63.6%), ligamentum teres hepatis (60.6%), and gallbladder fossa (51.5%). The lesser omentum was normal in 6 of 33 (18.2%) patients, despite metastases within the SGLS. A total of 54.5% of patients underwent complex surgery (surgical complexity scores; median, 8; range, 3–14). Complete resections were achieved in 19 (57.6%) patients. No complications were related to the resection of SGLS disease. The median length of progression-free survival was 24.8 months (95% confidence interval=16.6–32.9).
Conclusion
Metastases to the SGLS are not uncommon in advanced ovarian cancer, particularly those with widely disseminated disease. Disease in this recess is rarely identified by preoperative imaging and deserves systematic surgical exploration to attain complete cytoreduction.
