Objective To evaluate the disease risk of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) in aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou. Methods VP detection was carried out in aquatic products of raw food sold in Guangzhou from 2009 to 2022. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis of 30 VP strains (including 15 food strains and 15 patient strains) were performed for the detection rate of pathogenic VP. sQMRA was applied to assess VP risk of aquatic products of raw food. Results The detection rate of VP in raw aquatic products in Guangzhou was 7.30% (98/1 343). The detection rate of TDH virulence gene in patient strains was 86.70% (13/15) , and the detection rate of TRH was 6.67% (1/15). In 15 food strains, TDH and TRH were negative. The WgSNP analysis showed that 2 food strains had high similarity with the patient strains, indicating the same cluster. Risk assessment showed that the number of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection cases caused by intaking aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou was 384 ever year. Conclusion The detection rate of VP in aquatic products of raw food is high in Guangzhou , and the detection rate of VP virulence genes in aquatic products of raw food is low. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis can be used for risk assessment of food pathogenic bacteria. The risk of disease of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in aquatic products of raw food is high.

Objective To compare the pathological status of gastric mucosa and the expression of HH-PTCH-SMO-GLI(Hedgehog signaling pathway)and NOX/NF-κB/STAT1 signaling pathways in Hp and non-HP infected CAG patients,and to explore the biological mechanism of Hp promoting the"inflammatory cancer transformation"of CAG.Methods 43 patients with CAG who met the criteria were enrolled and divided into CAG with Hp infection group(Hp+ CAG group,n=21)and CAG without Hp infection group(HP-CAG group,n=22).The histological changes of gastric mucosa were observed by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.Western blot was used to detect the relative expression levels of NOX1,NOX2,NOX4,STAT1,P65 and P-P65 in gastric mucosa.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)was used to detect Gli1 mRNA,Gli2 mRNA,Gli3 mRNA,Shh mRNA,Smo mRNA,Ptch mRNA,NOX1 mRNA,NOX2 mRNA,NOX4 mRNA and NF-κB mRNA in gastric mucosa The mRNA level.Results HE staining results of gastric tissues in the two groups:In the Hp+CAG group,gastric epithelial cells were partially necrotic and shed,the surface was not smooth,the number of glands was reduced and disordered,intestinal metaplasia was observed,and diffuse lymphocyte and neutrophil infiltration were observed in the lamina proper.The degree of lymphocyte and neutrophil infiltration in HP-CAG group was lighter than that in Hp+CAG group.RT-qPCR results:Compared with HP-CAG group,the levels of Gli1 mRNA,Shh mRNA,Smo mRNA and Ptch mRNA in gastric mucosa of Hp+CAG group were significantly decreased(P<0.01).The levels of Gli2 mRNA,Gli3 mRNA,NOX1 mRNA,NOX2 mRNA,NOX4 mRNA and NF-κB mRNA were significantly increased(P<0.01).Western blot detection results:Compared with hP-CAG group,the relative expression levels of NOX1/GAPDH,NOX2/GAPDH,NOX4/GAPDH and P-P65/GAPDH in gastric mucosa of Hp+CAG group were significantly increased(P<0.01),and the STAT1 level was significantly decreased(P<0.01).There was no significant difference in the relative expression of P65/GAPDH between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Hp infection may cause long-term inflammation of gastric mucosa,promote atrophy and intestinal metaplasia,and increase the risk of cancer by inhibiting hH-PTC-SMO-GLi signaling pathway and abnormal activation of NOX/NF-κB/STAT1 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the application effects of different myocardial protective solutions in total thoracoscopic minimally invasive aortic valve replacement surgery.Methods The clinical data of 72 patients with total thoracoscopic minimally invasive aortic valve replacement surgery in this hospital from May 2020 to January 2024 were analyzed retrospectively.The patients were divided into the St Thomas cardioplegia group(STH group,n=13),del Nido cardioplegia group(DN group,n=24),histidine tryptophan ketoglutar-ate solution group(HTK group,n=35)according to the different myocardial protective solutions.The levels of lactate(Lac)before and during surgery,the highest levels of myocardial creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB),high-sensitivity troponin T(TnT)and creatinine(Cr)before operation,on the operative day and after surgery as well as the duration of extracorporeal circulation,aortic cross-clamping time,maximum flow rate,minimum bladder temperature,cardioplegia perfusion times,number of defibrillation after aortic de-clamping,postoperative ventilator assisted time,ICU stay duration and postoperative hospitalization duration were com-pared among the three groups.Results Except for 1 case of HTK was discharged automatically after surgery,the other 71 cases recovered and discharged according to the doctor's advice.There were no statistically signif-icant differences in the age,body weight,extracorporeal circulation time,aortic blocking time,maximum flow volume of extracorporeal circulation,minimum bladder temperature of extracorporeal circulation,Lac before extracorporeal circulation,highest Lac during extracorporeal circulation,assistant time of postoperative venti-lator,ICU stay duration,postoperative hospitalization duration,serum Cr before operation,Cr on operative day,preoperative TnT,postoperative TnT on operative day,postoperative highest TnT,preoperative CK-MB,postoperative CK-MB on operative day and postoperative highest CK-MB among the three groups(P＞0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the defibrillation ratio after aortic de-clamping and perfusion frequency of myocardial protective solution(P＜0.05).There was statistically significant difference in the perfusion frequency of myocardial protective solution in pairwise comparison among groups(P＜0.05),and the defibrillation ratio after aortic de-clamping had statistical difference between the DN group and HTK group(P＜0.05).Conclusion DN,STH and HTK all have good myocardial protective effect in total thoraco-scopic minimally invasive aortic valve surgery.HTK has the advantages of less perfusion times and decreasing the operative procedures compared with DN and STH;DN has the advantage of lower use for electrical defib-rillation correcting arrhythmias after aortic opening over HTK.

Objective To study the levels and clinical significance of serum angiopoietin-like protein 8(ANGPTL8)and neopurine in children with hormone sensitive primary nephrotic syndrome(NS).Methods A total of 159 children with hormone sensitive primary NS treated in the hospital from January 2018 to January 2021 were selected as the study subjects(NS group).After 1 year of follow-up,based on whether frequent recurrence occurred,they were divided into the non frequent recurrence subgroup(n=93)and the frequent recurrence subgroup(n=66).Additionally,60 children with oblique hernia who underwent e-lective surgery in the Department of Pediatrics in the hospital were selected as the control group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect serum levels of ANGPTL8 and neopterin.The ser-um levels of ANGPTL8 and neopterin in each group were compared.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze risk factors for frequent recurrence in children with hormone sensitive primary NS.The predictive value of serum ANGPTL8 and neopterin in predicting frequent recurrence in children with hormone sensitive primary NS was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The serum lev-els of ANGPTL8 and neopterin in the NS group were higher than those in the control group,and the differ-ences were statistically significant(t=20.948,44.288,P＜0.001,0.001).The serum ANGPTL8,neopterin levels,CD8+T cells,24 h urine protein quantification,and urine protein conversion time in the frequent recur-rence subgroup were significantly higher than those in the non frequent recurrence subgroup,while the blood albumin,CD4+T cells,CD4+/CD8+T cell ratios were lower than those in the non frequent recurrence sub-group,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The serum levels of ANGPTL8 and neopterin in NS patients were significantly positively correlated with 24 h urine protein and CD8+T cells,while they were significantly negatively correlated with serum albumin,CD4+T cells,CD4l+/CD8+(all P＜0.05).Serum ANGPTL8 and neopterin were independent risk factors for frequent recurrence in children with hormone sensitive primary NS.The area under the curve(AUC)of the combined model of serum ANGPTL8 and neopurine for predicting frequent recurrence in hormone sensitive primary NS patients was 0.852(95％CI:0.813-0.889),which was higher than 0.764(95％CI:0.722-0.812)of ANGPTL8,and 0.749(95％CI:0.711-0.790)of neopurine,and the differences were statistically significant(Z=3.623,3.987,P=0.003,＜0.001).Conclusion Elevated levels of serum ANGPTL8 and neopterin are risk factors for frequent recurrence hormone sensitive primary NS.The combination detection of serum ANGPTL8 and neopterin has high predictive value for frequent recurrence in children with hormone sensitive primary NS.

Objective To conduct lipidomics analysis of medical Marmota himalayana oil and explore its potential biological effects. Methods Marmota himalayana abdominal fat was heated and refined to produce medical marmot oil. Lipidomics analysis of two batches of Marmota himalayana oil was performed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). The potential effects of Marmota himalayana oil were analyzed based on the results of lipid composition detection. Results GC-MS results showed that the main components of the two batches of Marmota himalayana oil were saturated fatty acids (volume fraction of about 60%) and unsaturated fatty acids (volume fraction of about 30%). The saturated fatty acids were mainly palmitic acid, stearic acid, and arachidic acid, while the unsaturated fatty acids were mainly oleic acid and linoleic acid. There were no significant differences in the volume fraction of various fatty acids between the two batches, indicating that the preparation process of Marmota himalayana oil was stable. The results of UPLC-MS negative ion mode detection showed that Marmota himalayana oil contained 15 saturated fatty acids and 18 unsaturated fatty acids, but there were significant differences in volume fraction between the two batches. The results of UPLC-MS positive ion mode detection showed that Marmota himalayana oil of both batches contained 15 diglycerides and 30 triglycerides. Conclusion This study innovatively applies GC-MS and UPLC-MS techniques to analyze the lipidomic components of medical Marmota himalayana oil, providing a reliable basis for subsequent exploration of its pharmacological activity and the establishment of strict quality control standards.

Malignant tumors seriously threaten human life and health. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy are the conventional methods for the clinical treatment of advanced tumors. The prognosis and efficacy are still far from satisfactory due to the radiotherapy has serious adverse effects on the body and the chemotherapy often causes problems such as tumor resistance and cell proliferationinhibition. Therefore， the search for new， safe， and effective anti-tumor drugs and the elucidation of their molecular mechanisms are effective measures for clinical treatment of tumors and improvement of patients' quality of life. Active ingredients derived from Chinese herbal medicines and natural products have gradually become a hot spot in the research and development of anti-tumor drugs due to their multi-target and multi-channel anti-tumor pharmacological activity characteristics and their advantages such as less adverse reaction on the body. Bruceine D is a class of tetracyclic triterpenoids extracted from the fruit of the Chinese herbal medicine Bruceae Fructus， with anti-inflammatory， anti-malarial， anti-parasitic， and other pharmacological activities， and its anti-tumor activity is particularly significant. Pharmacological studies have found that bruceine D can regulate various cellular physiological activities such as proliferation， apoptosis， invasion， and migration of lung cancer， liver cancer， pancreatic cancer， intestinal cancer， and other cancer cells by targeting different signaling pathways. Bruceine D can be used in combination with other chemotherapeutic drugs to improve the sensitivity of tumor cells to chemotherapeutic drugs， thereby reducing the adverse effect of chemotherapy. Clinical application practice has shown that Bruceae Fructus oil emulsion injection containing bruceine D has significant advantages in the efficacy and safety of tumor treatment. Although there are many studies on the antitumor pharmacological activity of bruceine D and its clinical efficacy is significant， the specific antitumor molecular mechanism of bruceine D is still unclear， and there is a lack of systematic review on the existing antitumor mechanism of bruceine D. Therefore， based on the research on bruceine D in China and abroad in recent years， this paper reviewed the anti-tumor effect and related molecular mechanisms of bruceine D from six aspects， namely， tumor cell proliferation， apoptosis， metastasis and invasion， glucose metabolism process， autophagy， and chemotherapy sensitivity. This paper is expected to provide a pharmacological basis and scientific reference for the antitumor drug development and clinical application of bruceine D.
