Objective To analyze the development trends,research status,and hotspots in the field of gut microbiota and cognitive dysfunction from 2015 to 2025,providing a more comprehensive reference for researchers in this field and exploring cutting-edge research directions.Methods Liter-ature in relevant research fields was retrieved from the WoSCC database.Bibliometric and visualiza-tion analyses were conducted using VOSviewer,CiteSpace,ScimangoGraphica,and the R package"bibliometrix".Results A total of 665 eligible English articles were retrieved from the WoSCC data-base.The analysis revealed that the number of publications has shown an increasing trend annually since 2018.China and the United States had the leading roles globally in terms of the number of pub-lications and collaborative relationships.Huazhong University of Science and Technology are the most influential research institution in this field,with NUTRIENTS(IF=4.8)being the journal with the highest number of publications,and KIM D H ranking first in outstanding contributions and influ-ence.Keyword co-occurrence analysis indicated that"neuronal apoptosis","SCFAs","synaptic dysfunction",and"dementia prevention"were the research hotspots in this field.Furthermore,trend analysis revealed that short-chain fatty acids(SCFAs),important metabolites of gut microbiota,insulin resistance,and neuroinflammation were the research frontiers in this field,highlighting insulin resistance as a mediating hub in microbiota-cognition research.Additionally,traditional Chinese medicine interventions(such as electroacupuncture)were identified as an emerging characteristic direction in this field.Conclusion Through bibliometric research,the current status and develop-ment trends of gut microbiota and cognitive dysfunction research are analyzed from multiple perspec-tives in the paper.Comprehensive insights into the cutting-edge dynamics of this research field are provided,offering valuable references for further in-depth research by more scholars in this area.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of patent foramen ovale on the development of post-operative stroke in the patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery using a meta-analysis approach.Methods:A comprehensive search was conducted across multiple databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, China Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, and China Journal Full Text Database.The inclusion criteria encompassed studies assessing the correlation between patent foramen ovale and post-operative stroke.The primary outcome measure focused on the incidence of post-operative stroke, and secondary outcome measures comprised mortality, myocardial infarction rate, and readmission rate within 30 days after surgery. The quality of literature meeting the inclusion criteria was evaluated and data were extracted, and then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.4 software.Results:Eight retrospective cohort studies involving 21 142 237 patients were included.The results of meta-analysis showed that patent foramen ovale was associated with post-operative stroke and readmission within 30 days after surgery.There were no significant differences in all-cause mortality and myocardial infarction rates between patent foramen ovale group and mon-patent foramen ovale group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Patent foramen ovale can increase the risk of post-operative stroke in the patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.

Eight compounds were isolated from ethyl acetate fraction of 80% ethanol extract of the hulls of Garcinia mangostana by silica gel, Sephadex LH-20 column chromatography, as well as prep-HPLC methods. By HR-ESI-MS, MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectral analyses, the structures of the eight compounds were identified as 16-en mangostenone E(1), α-mangostin(2), 1,7-dihydroxy-2-(3-methy-lbut-2-enyl)-3-methoxyxanthone(3), cratoxyxanthone(4), 2,6-dimethoxy-para-benzoquinone(5), methyl orselinate(6), ficusol(7), and 4-(4-carboxy-2-methoxyphenoxy)-3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid(8). Compound 1 was a new xanthone, and compound 4 was a xanthone dimer, compound 5 was a naphthoquinone. All compounds were isolated from this plant for the first time except compounds 2 and 3. Cytotoxic bioassay suggested that compounds 1, 2 and 4 possessed moderate cytotoxicity, suppressing HeLa cell line with IC_(50) va-lues of 24.3, 35.5 and 17.1 μmol·L~(-1), respectively. Compound 4 also could suppress K562 cells with an IC_(50) value of 39.8 μmol·L~(-1).

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of different surgical approaches on multi-level cervical spondylosis in elderly patients.Methods A total of 53 aged patients with multi-level cervical spondylosis (≥70 years old) who received operation in our department during May 2007 to May 2014 were retrospectively studied, and divided into anterior cervical surgical group (n=22) and posterior cervical group (n=31), according to the surgical approach.The operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, hospitalization time, postoperative complications, Japanese orthopedics association (JOA) scores, Neck disability index (NDI), postoperative subjective improvement of clinical symptoms and spinal fusion of the two groups were evaluated and compared respectively.Results The mean operative time was longer in the anterior surgical group than in the posterior surgical group [(2.7±0.5)h vs.(1.9±0.3) h, P＜0.05].The average blood loss of the anterior surgical group was less than that of posterior surgical group [(90.0±50.4) ml vs.(160.7±40.5)ml, P＜0.05].The hospitalization time of the anterior surgical group was less than that of posterior surgical group [(10.3±2.5) d vs.(15.7±3.6) d, P＜0.05].Postoperative JOA score of anterior surgical group was higher than that of posterior surgical group 6 months after surgery [(14.7 ±0.8)vs.(13.8±1.2), P＜0.05], while there was no significant difference in JOA score between the two groups up to the last follow-up [(14.8±1.2) vs.(14.7±1.8), P＞0.05].NDI score was lower in anterior surgical group than in posterior surgical group 3, 6, 12 months after operation and at the last follow-up.Among the 41 patients, radiographic outcomes showed that there were 16 cases of anterior surgical group with no bony fusion at the follow-up 3 months after operation, and all the 16 patients achieved bony fusion at the follow-up 1 year after operation, and there were 4 cases with titanium mesh subsidence (＜ 3 mm).Conclusions Both anterior cervical decompression and fusion and posterior cervical single open-door laminoplasty have good efficacy in the treatment of multilevel cervical spondylosis in elderly patients, which have advantages on the limb functional recovery time and cervical function assessment.When anterior cervical surgical contraindications were excluded, the anterior cervical decompression and fusion may be a good choice for the treatment of multilevel cervical spondylosis in aged patients.

Objective To quantitatively investigate the expression levels of the cytosine deaminases,hA3B,hA3F and hA3G in peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC)of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)infected patients and to analyze the correlation between cytosine deaminases expression and CD4~+ T lymphocyte counts. Methods Peripheral blood samples were collected from 21 HIV-infected subjects who didn't take antiretroviral therapy(ART-),21 HIV-infected subjects receiving ART(ART+),and 10 HIV-uninfected subjects. PBMC were isolated by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation, followed by RNA extraction and cDNA synthesis.hA3B,hA3F and hA3G mRNA levels were determined by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR).CD4~+ T lymphocyte counts were determined using flow cytometry. Data were analyzed by t test, t' test or Wilcoxon rank sum test. Results In HIV-infected subjects without or with ART,HIV-uninfected subjects, the levels of hA3B mRNA were 208.4,365.2 and 563.6,hA3F mRNA were 245.5,316.6 and 442.9,hA3G mRNA were 404.6,360.8 and 638.6,respectively.hA3G mRNA level in HIV-infected subjects was lower than that in HIV-uninfected controls(P=0.0131),but there was no statistical difference between ART+ and ART-groups(P=0.7342).There were no correlations between hA3B,hA3F and hA3G mRNA levels and CD4+ T lymphocyte counts in either ART-or ART+HIV-infected subjects(ART-:r=-0.0104,r=-0.0545,r=0.1623,all P＞0.05;ART+:r=0.3220,r=0.2193,r=0.1455,all P＞0.05).In addition,hA3B,hA3F and hA3G mRNA levels were positively correlated with one another in ART-HIV-infected subjects and HIV-uninfected controls(P＜0.05),but not in ART-HIV-infected subjects(P＞0.05).Conclusions hA3B,hA3F and hA3G expression levels do not directly correlate with CD4~+ T lymphocyte counts in HIV-1-infected patients,hA3B,hA3F and hA3G expression levels in PBMCs tend to he decreased after HIV-1 infection, and ART may increase hA3B and hA3F mRNA expression.
