OBJECTIVES: To compare the anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and analgesic effects of Yinqiao Powder (YQS) formulated granules and decoction. METHODS: We first evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of the two dosage forms of YQS in a LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cell model using RT-qPCR and Western blotting. We further constructed zebrafish models of inflammation by copper sulfate exposure, caudal fin transection, or LPS and Poly (I:C) microinjection, and evaluated anti-inflammatory effects of YQS granules and decoction by examining neutrophil aggregation and HE staining findings. In a mouse model of acute lung injury (ALI) induced by intratracheal LPS instillation, the effects of YQS gavage at 10, 15, and 20 g/kg on lung pathologies were evaluated by calculating lung wet-dry weight ratio and using HE staining, ELISA and Western blotting. The microbroth dilution method was used to evaluate the antibacterial effect of YQS. Mouse pain models established by hot plate and intraperitoneal injection of glacial acetic acid were used to evaluate the analgesic effects of YQS at 10, 15, and 20 g/kg. RESULTS: Both YQS granules and decoction significantly reduced TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β expressions and p-STAT3 (Tyr 705) phosphorylation level in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells, and obviously inhibited neutrophil aggregation in the zebrafish models. In ALI mice, YQS granules and decoction effectively ameliorated lung injury, lowered lung wet-dry weight ratio, and reduced p-STAT3 (Tyr 705) expression and TNF-α and IL-6 levels. YQS produced obvious antibacterial effect at the doses of 15.63 and 31.25 mg/mL, and significantly reduced body torsion and increased pain threshold in the mouse pain models. CONCLUSIONS The two dosage forms of TQS have similar anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and analgesic effects with only differences in their inhibitory effect on TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β mRNA expressions in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for stroke-associated pneumonia(SAP)in patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion stroke after endovascular treatment(EVT).Methods A total of 115 patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion stroke who received EVT in the Department of Neurology,The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University,from March 2022 to May 2023 were continuously included.Their clinical data were retrospectively collected.The patients were divided into SAP group(55 cases)and non-SAP group(60 cases)according to the occurrence of SAP after the operation.Differences in baseline data,surgical and perioperative indicators were compared between the two groups,and the risk factors for SAP after EVT were analyzed using the multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results Univariate analysis showed there were significant differences in the Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score and the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score at admission,incidence of dysphagia,duration of the surgery,proportion of general anesthesia,rate of unsuccessful vascular recanalization and the rate of immediate CT high-density sign between SAP group and non-SAP group(all P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis of the above indicators showed that duration of the surgery(OR=1.014,95％CI:1.001-1.028,P＜0.05),dysphagia(OR=6.137,95％CI:1.694-22.232,P＜0.01)and unsuccessful vascular recanalization(OR=6.043,95％CI:1.062-34.382,P＜0.05)were independent risk factors for SAP after EVT.Conclusion Long duration of EVT,dysphagia and unsuccessful vascular recanalization are directly related to the occurrence of SAP after EVT in patients with acute anterior circulation large-vessel occlusive infarction.Therefore,targeted measures should be taken as soon as possible to reduce the incidence of SAP after EVT and thus improve the clinical prognosis of these patients.

Objective This study aims to explore the impacts of short-term insemination and early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (E-RICSI) on clinical and neonatal outcomes for IVF patients. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data from the patients who underwent fresh embryo transfer at the Reproductive Center from January 2019 to December 2023. Patients were divided into four groups based on fertilization method:short-term IVF group (n=204),conventional IVF group (n=208),E-RICSI group (n=13) and conventional ICSI group (n=92). The fertilization rates,embryo development,pregnancy outcomes,and neonatal outcomes were compared between the short-term IVF and conventional IVF groups,and between the E-RICSI and conventional ICSI groups. Results There were no statistically significant differences in embryo development,clinical pregnancy,miscarriage,ectopic pregnancy,live birth rates,neonatal sex,and birth weight between the short-term IVF group and conventional IVF group. Similarly,no significant differences were observed in the E-RICSI group compared to the conventional ICSI group (P>0.05). However,the fertilization rate (79.11％ vs. 84.39％,P<0.001) and the rate of 2PN zygotes (63.98％ vs. 70.83％,P<0.001) were significantly lower in the short-term IVF group compared to the conventional IVF group;The fertilization rate (65.49％ vs. 91.68％,P<0.001) and the rate of 2PN zygotes (57.75％ vs. 88.35％,P<0.001) were significantly lower in the E-RICSI group compared to the conventional ICSI group. Conclusions Although the fertilization rate of short-term insemination and E-RICSI is lower than that of conventional IVF and ICSI,it has no effect on embryonic development,preg-nancy outcome and neonatal outcome. Short-term insemination combined with early rescue ICSI is an effective and safe technology to prevent complete fertilization failure.

occlusive stroke(AIS-LVO).Methods This study retrospectively included patients who developed SAP after endovascular treatment of AIS-LVO admitted to the intensive care unit of the Department of Neurology at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from March 2022 to December 2023.Patients were randomly divided into the ulinastatin group(combined application of ulinastatin and CS)and the control group(sole application of CS)using a random number table.Baseline and clinical data,including sex,age,infarct laterality,culprit vessel,trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment(TOAST)classification,baseline National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score,baseline Glasgow coma scale(GCS)score,medical history(hypertension,diabetes,coronary heart disease,atrial fibrillation,past history of stroke),history of smoking and alcohol consumption,admission baseline blood pressure,laboratory test results at admission(including red blood cell count,white blood cell count,neutrophil count,platelet count,random blood glucose levels,albumin,creatinine,low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,uric acid,and D-dimer),and endovascular therapies(including mechanical retrieval of thrombus,stenting,balloon dilatation,arterial thrombolysis and combination therapy)were collected from both groups.After the diagnosis of SAP,patients in both groups underwent conventional treatment such as sputum expectoration and clearance,antipyretic and antitussive treatment,oxygen therapy,respiratory support,fluid and nutrition support,along with CS anti-infective therapy.In contrast to the control group,the ulinastatin group additionally received continuous ulinastatin treatment for at least 7 days.The adverse reactions of the two groups after initiating SAP treatment including allergic reactions(such as sudden dyspnea,skin redness,and shock),decrease in peripheral white blood cell count(below 4.0 × 109/L),nausea and vomiting,diarrhea,rash and/or itching,and liver enzymes(aspartate aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase)elevation(more than twice the upper limit of normal)were compared between the two groups.The efficacy indicators encompassing arterial blood gas analysis(oxygenation index)and inflammatory factor indicators(interleukin-6[IL-6],procalcitonin)after 7 days of SAP treatment,pneumonia-related symptoms and signs before and after SAP treatment(including body temperature,heart rate,respiratory rate,sputum volume and characteristics,changes in lung rales,etc.),imaging examinations(such as head CT and chest CT).The evaluation of therapeutic efficacy is classified as(1)markedly effective:following treatment,significant relief was observed on pneumonia-related symptoms and signs,with body temperature returned to normal,and arterial blood gas analysis and inflammatory factor indicators returned to normal levels;post-treatment imaging studies reveal that over 2/3 of lung inflammation has been absorbed;(2)effective:after treatment,some improvement was observed in pneumonia-related symptoms and signs,with mild improvement in arterial blood gas analysis and inflammatory factor indicators;post-treatment imaging studies reveal some absorption of lung inflammation;(3)ineffective:no improvement or further deterioration of pneumonia-related symptoms,arterial blood gas analysis,and inflammatory factor indicators after treatment.The arterial blood gas analysis,inflammatory factor indicators and efficacy indicators were evaluated and compared between the control and the ulinastatin group.Compare the prognosis(improvement of the lesion in the chest CT after 7 days of treatment,length of stay in the intensive care unit,total length of hospital stay,and modified Rankin scale[mRS]score assessed via telephone follow-up or outpatient revisit 90 days after endovascular treatment[with an mRS score ≤2 indicating a good prognosis],as well as mortality).Results A total of 99 patients with AIS-LVO who developed SAP after endovascular treatment were included in this study,with 69 males(69.7％)and 30 females(30.3％),and an average age of(68±10)years.Among them,there were 46 cases in the ulinastatin group and 53 cases in the control group.(1)No statistically significant differences were observed in baseline or clinical characteristics between the two groups(all P＞0.05).(2)The overall effective(markedly effective and effective)rate of SAP treatment was greater in the ulinastatin group than that in the control group(89.1％[41/46]vs.69.8％[37/53],P=0.019).(3)No statistically significant differences were observed in serum IL-6 levels,procalcitonin levels,or arterial oxygenation index between the ulinastatin group and the control group before treatment(all P＞0.05).seven days after treatment,the levels of serum IL-6([21.13±14.86]ng/L vs.[64.39±52.95]ng/L)and procalcitonin([0.12±0.11]μg/L vs.[0.31±0.20]μg/L)in the ulinastatin group were significantly lower compared to those before treatment(all P＜0.01),and the arterial oxygenation index was significantly higher than that before treatment([359.35±92.56]mmHg vs.[273.34±95.65]mmHg,P＜0.01).Seven days after treatment,the levels of serum IL-6([21.13±14.86]ng/L vs.[31.90±21.95]ng/L)and procalcitonin([0.12±0.11]μg/L vs.[0.26±0.24]μg/L)in the ulinastatin group were significantly lower than those in the control group(all P＜0.01),and the arterial oxygenation index was significantly higher than that of the control group([359.35±92.56]mmHg vs.[314.81±81.97]mmHg,P=0.020).(4)In the ulinastatin group,there was 1 case of nausea and vomiting,1 case of itching and/or rash,and 1 case of elevated liver enzymes,resulting in an adverse reaction rate of 6.5％(3/46).In the control group,there were 2 cases of nausea and vomiting,1 case of itching and/or rash,and 1 case of elevated liver enzymes,resulting in an adverse reaction rate of 7.5％(4/53).No statistically significant differences were observed in the adverse reaction rate between the two groups(P＞0.05).(5)After 7 days of treatment,the ulinastatin group exhibited a greater improvement rate in chest CT lesions compared to the control group(93.5％[43/46]vs.77.4％[41/53],P=0.026).No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of the length of stay in the intensive care unit or the total length of hospital stay(both P＞0.05).Additionally,the 90-day mortality rate after intravascular treatment was lower in the ulinastatin group compared to the control group(6.5％[3/46]vs.20.8％[11/53],P=0.040).No statistically significant differences were observed in the good prognosis rate between the two groups(P=0.119).Conclusions Combined treatment with CS and ulinastatin can improve the clinical symptoms,inhibit inflammatory factors and reduce mortality rate in SAP patients after receiving endovascular treatment for AIS-LVO.The results of this study still need to be further confirmed by large-scale prospective studies.

Collagen-based materials, renowned for their biocompatibility and minimal immunogenicity, serve as exemplary substrates in a myriad of biomedical applications. Collagen-based micro/nanogels, in particular, are valued for their increased surface area, tunable degradation rates, and ability to facilitate targeted drug delivery, making them instrumental in advanced therapeutics and tissue engineering endeavors. Although extensive reviews on micro/nanogels exist, they tend to cover a wide range of biomaterials and lack a specific focus on collagen-based materials. The current review offers an in-depth look into the manufacturing technologies, drug release mechanisms, and biomedical applications of collagen-based micro/nanogels to address this gap. First, we provide an overview of the synthetic strategies that allow the precise control of the size, shape, and mechanical strength of these collagen-based micro/nanogels by controlling the degree of cross-linking of the materials. These properties are crucial for their performance in biomedical applications. We then highlight the environmental responsiveness of these collagen-based micro/nanogels, particularly their sensitivity to enzymes and pH, which enables controlled drug release under various pathological conditions. The discussion then expands to include their applications in cancer therapy, antimicrobial treatments, bone tissue repair, and imaging diagnosis, emphasizing their versatility and potential in these critical areas. The challenges and future perspectives of collagen-based micro/nanogels in the field are discussed at the end of the review, with an emphasis on the translation to clinical practice. This comprehensive review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and scientists alike, providing insights into the current state and future directions of collagen-based micro/nanogel research and development.
