Objective Total thyroidectomy of C57BL/6 and KM mice was performed by two different surgical methods to verify the success of mouse hypothyroidism model modeling,and compared the success rate of different surgical methods.Methods C57BL/6 and KM mice underwent total thyroidectomy by ligation(operation method Ⅰ)or hemostasis(operation method Ⅱ),and the detailed operation processes were recorded.Serum TT3,TT4 and TSH levels detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,body weight,and hematoxylin-eosin(HE)-stained neck tissue were compared before and after surgery to verify the model.Results Serum TT3 and TT4 levels were decreased(P＜0.05)and TSH was increased(P＜0.001)in both model groups.The 28-day postoperative survival rates were 40％and 60％in groups Ⅰ and Ⅱ,respectively,and 50％and 40％in KM mice.Body weights were significantly higher in both model groups compared with the sham control group.HE staining and microscopic observation showed that the cervical tissue in both strains was thyroid tissue,and the back membrane of the thyroid remained intact after isolation.Conclusions Both surgical method can induce hypothyroidism in C57BL/6 and KM mice;however,it is necessary to consider the anatomical relationship of the thyroid gland to the surrounding tissue,improve the proficiency of the surgical operation,prevent the occurrence of postoperative hypocalcemia and infection,and thus improve the survival rate of the model mice.

Glioma is the most common primary tumor of the brain,accounting for 81%of central nervous system(CNS)malignant tumors.The degree of malignancy is high,and the current treatment methods are limited.In recent years,with the in-depth study of intestinal flora and brain-gut axis,it has been found that the diversity of gut microbiota plays an important role in the regulation of glioma.The mechanism is that the intestinal flora affects the development of glioma through the role of immune regulation and metabolites.In addition,it has been con-firmed that there is a certain correlation between some probiotics and glioma,which provides a new application prospect for the treatment of glioma.This paper discusses the main intestinal bacteria that regulate gliomas as well as the role and regulatory mechanisms of intestinal flora in the development of gliomas,and provides ideas for the discovery of new targets for glioma treatment and further improvement of treatment options.

Objective:To systematically review the real experience of type 1 diabetes in adolescents.Methods:The qualitative research on the experience of type 1 diabetes in adolescents was electronically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, EBSCO, Cochrane Library, China Biology Medicine disc, WanFang Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and VIP. The search period was from database establishment to July 2023. Two evidence-based trained researchers independently conducted literature screening and data extraction, and the results were integrated using the Meta-synthesis.Results:A total of 13 articles were included, 42 results were extracted and classified into 11 categories, which were integrated into four results, namely disease perception, complex psychological experiences, disease management, and post-traumatic growth.Conclusions:The awareness and psychological experience of type 1 diabetes in adolescents should be paid attention to. Medical institutions, families and schools should provide all-round support for adolescents with type 1 diabetes to help them enhance their disease self-management, improve their health outcomes and promote their post-traumatic growth.

To analyze the clinical features and genetic variants of a child with type 4 familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD4) and the initial manifestation of diabetes.The male patient with the age of 13 years and 5 months, and the diabetes course was about 3 years, the patient was admitted to Children′s Hospital of Soochow University on November 10, 2021(4 th hospitalization at the hospital), in the course of diabetes, the children repeatedly suffered from diabetes ketoacidosis, and lipid metabolism complications gradually emerged.The gene sequencing showed that the proband and his mother carried dual gene mutations of PLIN1 c. 1325delG(p.G442Afs*99) and SPINK1 c. 194+ 2T>C(p.? ). The PLIN1 gene was the causal gene of FPLD4.The mutations of c. 1325delG in the PLIN1 gene had not been previously reported.Based on the clinical phenotype, family history and genetic testing findings, the patient was diagnosed as FPLD4.In addition, the mutation of SPINK1 c. 194+ 2T>C(p.? ) might increase the risk of chronic pancreatitis.This case report enriched the clinical characteristics and genotype data of FPLD4.Gene sequencing assisted the accurate diagnosis of the type of diabetes.The effects of dual gene mutations on disease progression should be concerned, which were of great significance to develop treatment regimen and disease management.

Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episodes(MELAS) is one of the most common inherited mitochondrial diseases. This paper reports a rare mutation associated with MELAS syndrome, the m. 3252 A>G mutation in the MT-TL1 gene encoding the mitochondrial tRNALeu(UUR). The 6-year-old girl suffered from recurrent convulsion and lactic acidemia. The mtDNA sequencing detected a variant m. 3252A>G(MT-TL1 gene) in the proband and her maternal relatives. The heteroplasmic levels in peripheral blood and urine sediment were 66.53% and 97.42%, respectively, which were obviously higher than those of her maternal relatives. Together with 3 previously reported cases, the variant m. 3252A>G could be classified pathogenic. All the reported pathogenic variants in MT-TL1 gene were reviewed to explore the genotype-phenotype correlations of pathogenic variants in MT-TL1 gene.

Objective:To investigate the effect of somatostatin receptor ligands (SRLs) on bone metabolism in patients with acromegaly.Methods:Retrospective analysis of clinical data of acromegaly patients( n=100) received surgery or SRLs alone for 3 months. The changes of growth hormone (GH), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), osteocalcin (OC), N-mid fragment of osteocalcin (N-MID), amino-terminal peptide of type I procollagen (P1NP) and C-terminal peptide degradation product of type I collagen(CTX) were compared before and after treatment. Patients were divided into drug treatment group and surgical group according to treatment methods. According to the decline of GH after medication, patients in the drug treatment group were further divided into drug sensitive group and drug insensitive group. Results:The average dynamic GH and IGF-1 indexes in the drug treatment group were significantly decreased after treatment compared with before treatment (both P<0.05), and CTX was also significantly decreased after treatment [1.25 (0.67, 1.40) ng/mL vs 1.34 (0.57, 1.68) ng/mL, P<0.05]. The mean dynamic GH, IGF-1 index, OC, N-MID, P1NP, and CTX in surgical group were significantly decreased after treatment compared with before treatment (all P<0.01). In the surgical group, there was a positive correlation between GH difference (ΔGH) and N-mid difference (ΔN-MID; r=0.454, P=0.026), and there was a positive correlation between IGF-1 index difference (ΔIGF-1 index) and CTX difference (ΔCTX; r=0.339, P=0.036). After treatment, the mean dynamic GH, IGF-1 index, CTX, P1NP, and N-MID in drug treatment group were significantly higher than those in surgical group (all P<0.001). CTX and N-MID decreased significantly after treatment in drug sensitive group compared with drug insensitive group (35.3% vs 7.2%, P<0.001; 24.1% vs 11.8%, P<0.05), and ΔGH was positively correlated with ΔCTX ( r=0.328, P=0.004). Conclusion:SRLs treatment can reduce bone formation marker N-MID and bone resorption marker CTX, improving the high turnover state of bone metabolism in patients with acromegaly, which may attribute to the reduction of GH and IGF-1 levels.
