ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Dihuang Yinzi on the cognitive function in the mouse model of learning and memory impairments induced by scopolamine （SCOP） and explore the treatment mechanism. MethodsA mouse model of learning and memory impairment was induced by intraperitoneal injection of SCOP. Sixty male C57BL/6J mice were randomized into six groups： control （0.9% NaCl， n=10）， model （SCOP 1 mg·kg^-1·d^-1， n=10）， low-， medium-， and high-dose Dihuang Yinzi （SCOP 1 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 + Dihuang Yinzi 5.5， 11.0， and 22.0 g·kg^-1·d^-1， n=10）， and donepezil （SCOP 1 mg·kg^-1·d^-1 + donepezil 0.84 mg·kg^-1·d^-1， n=10）. Mice were administrated with corresponding drugs for 6 weeks. Modeling started in the 4th week， and mice in other groups except the control group were injected with SCOP intraperitoneally 40 min after daily gavage. Behavioral testing began in the 5th week， 30 min after modeling each day. The Morris water maze and novel object recognition tests were carried out to evaluate the spatial learning and memory function of mice. Nissl staining was employed to observe the survival of neurons and Nissl bodies in the hippocampal CA1 region. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of silent information regulator 2 （SIRT2）， α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid （AMPA） receptor 1 （GluA1）， protein kinase A （PKA）， cAMP response element-binding protein （CREB）， phosphorylated-CREB （p-CREB）， postsynaptic density protein 95 （PSD95）， growth-associated protein-43 （GAP-43）， and synaptophysin （SYN） in the hippocampus. Immunofluorescence was used to detect the expression of doublecortin （DCX） in the hippocampal dentate gyrus （DG） region. ResultsCompared with the control group， the model group showed impaired learning and memory （P<0.01）， obvious neuronal damage in the hippocampal CA1 region， a reduction in neuron survival （P<0.01）， a decrease in DCX expression in the hippocampal DG region （P<0.01）， down-regulated proteins levels of GluA1， PKA， p-CREB/CREB， PSD95， SYN， and GAP-43 in the hippocampal tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and an up-regulated protein level of SIRT2 （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the medium- and high-dose Dihuang Yinzi groups and the donepezil group showed improvements in learning and memory （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while the low-， medium-， and high-dose Dihuang Yinzi groups and the donepezil group had increased neuron survival （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The medium-dose Dihuang Yinzi group and the donepezil group showed increased DCX expression （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The medium- and high-dose Dihuang Yinzi groups and the donepezil group showed up-regulation in the protein levels of GluA1， PKA， p-CREB/CREB， PSD95， SYN， and GAP-43 （P<0.05， P<0.01） and down-regulation in the protein level of SIRT2 （P<0.01）. ConclusionDihuang Yinzi can improve the cognitive function in the mouse model of learning and memory impairments induced by SCOP by inhibiting the upregulation of SIRT2， activating the PKA/CREB signaling pathway， improving synaptic plasticity， and reducing hippocampal neuronal damage.

Obesity is a significant risk factor for cancer and is associated with breast cancer metastasis. Nevertheless, the mechanism by which alterations in systemic metabolism affect tumor microenvironment (TME) and consequently influence tumor metastasis remains inadequately understood. Herein, we found that perturbations in circulating metabolites induced by obesity promote metastasis-like phenotypes in breast cancer. Oleoylcarnitine (OLCarn) concentrations were elevated in the serum of obese mice and humans. Administration of exogenous OLCarn induces metastasis-like characteristics in breast cancer cells. Mechanistically, OLCarn directly interacts with the Arg176 site of adenylate cyclase 10 (ADCY10), leading to the activation of ADCY10 and enhancement of cAMP production. Mutations at Arg176 prevent OLCarn from binding to ADCY10, disrupting the ADCY10-mediated activation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signaling pathway. This activation promotes transcription factor 4 (TCF4)-dependent kinesin family member C1 (KIFC1) transcription, thereby driving breast cancer metastasis. Conversely, the neutralization of both ADCY10 and KIFC1 through knockdown or pharmacological inhibition abrogates the oncogenic effects mediated by OLCarn. Hence, obesity-induced systemic environmental changes lead to the aberrant accumulation of OLCarn within the TME, making it a potential therapeutic target and biomarker for breast cancer.

The COVID-19 epidemic has spread to the whole world for three years and has had a serious impact on human life, health and economic activities. China's epidemic prevention and control has gone through the following stages: emergency unconventional stage, emergency normalization stage, and the transitional stage from the emergency normalization to the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category B" normalization, and achieved a major and decisive victory. The designated hospitals for prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic in Tianjin has successfully completed its tasks in all stages of epidemic prevention and control, and has accumulated valuable experience. This article summarizes the experience of constructing a hospital infection prevention and control system during the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category A" period in designated hospital. The experience is summarized as the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system, namely "three rings" outside, middle and inside, "three districts" of green, orange and red, "three things" before, during and after the event, "two-day pre-purification" and "two-director system", and "one zone" management. In emergency situations, we adopt a simplified version of the cluster hospital infection prevention and control system. In emergency situations, a simplified version of the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system can be adopted. This system has the following characteristics: firstly, the system emphasizes the characteristics of "cluster" and the overall management of key measures to avoid any shortcomings. The second, it emphasizes the transformation of infection control concepts to maximize the safety of medical services through infection control. The third, it emphasizes the optimization of the process. The prevention and control measures should be comprehensive and focused, while also preventing excessive use. The measures emphasize the use of the least resources to achieve the best infection control effect. The fourth, it emphasizes the quality control work of infection control, pays attention to the importance of the process, and advocates the concept of "system slimming, process fattening". Fifthly, it emphasizes that the future development depends on artificial intelligence, in order to improve the quality and efficiency of prevention and control to the greatest extent. Sixth, hospitals need to strengthen continuous training and retraining. We utilize diverse training methods, including artificial intelligence, to ensure that infection control policies and procedures are simple. We have established an evaluation and feedback mechanism to ensure that medical personnel are in an emergency state at all times.

Objective: To explore the feasibility of remotely obtaining complex information on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) pulse conditions through voice signals. Methods: We used multi-label pulse conditions as the entry point and modeled and analyzed TCM pulse diagnosis by combining voice analysis and machine learning. Audio features were extracted from voice recordings in the TCM pulse condition dataset. The obtained features were combined with information from tongue and facial diagnoses. A multi-label pulse condition voice classification DNN model was built using 10-fold cross-validation, and the modeling methods were validated using publicly available datasets. Results: The analysis showed that the proposed method achieved an accuracy of 92.59% on the public dataset. The accuracies of the three single-label pulse manifestation models in the test set were 94.27%, 96.35%, and 95.39%. The absolute accuracy of the multi-label model was 92.74%. Conclusion Voice data analysis may serve as a remote adjunct to the TCM diagnostic method for pulse condition assessment.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of hemodialysis (HD) initiation in non-diabetic kidney disease (NDKD) patients with predialysis arteriovenous fistula (AVF) creation.Methods:This was a single-center prospective cohort study. The NDKD patients undergoing predialysis AVF creation were enrolled at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from 2015 to 2018. According to the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR, the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation) and age, patients were divided into different subgroups, eGFR: group 1 [eGFR<10 ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1], group 2 [ eGFR between 10 to 15 ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1], and group 3 [eGFR > 15 ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1]; age: age ≥65 years group and age <65 years group. The primary outcome was defined as the initiation of HD within 1 year after AVF surgery. The second outcome was the use of AVF access at the time of HD initiation. Cox proportional hazard regression was performed to identify which demographic and clinical factors were associated with the initiation of HD after AVF surgery. Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate factors associated with AVF use at the initiation of HD. Results:A total of 220 patients were enrolled, with age of (48.1±16.2) years, of which 143(65.0%) were males. Overall, the clinical parameters of eGFR, cystatin C, serum albumin, 24h-Urine protein, serum phosphorus were as follows respectively, 7.7 (6.6,9.2) ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1, (3.93±1.12) mg/L, (36.0±4.0) g/L, (2.22±1.36) g, (1.71±0.53) mmol/L. The proportion of patients initiating HD within 6 months ( Fisher=6.832, P=0.020) and the level of hemoglobin ( F=3.112, P=0.047) were higher in group 3 compared to the other two eGFR groups. While the median time interval between AVF creation and HD initiation ( H=6.295, P=0.043) was shorter in group 1. In age <65 years group, the level of serum albumin ( t=2.076, P=0.039), triglyceride ( t=1.995, P=0.048) were higher compared with age ≥65 years group; interestingly, the proportion of patients initiated HD within 3 months ( χ2=4.033, P=0.045) and 6 months ( χ2=5.012, P=0.025) were lower in age <65 years group. The median time interval between AVF creation and HD initiation among these patients was 84 (49,174) days. The patients initiating HD within 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year after AVF creation were 112 (50.9%), 152 (69.1%), and 202 (91.8%), respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that higher cystatin C level ( HR=1.283, 95% CI 1.121-1.469, P<0.001) was associated with earlier HD initiation within 1 year of AVF surgery in NDKD patients. AVF usage was accomplished in 64.3% of patients who initiated HD within 90 days, the ratio was 100.0% in those initiated HD between 91 to 180 days, and 88.0% in those ≥181 days after AVF surgery. No factor was independently associated with AVF use at HD initiation identified by multivariate logistic regression analyses in patients with NDKD. Conclusion:Serum cystatin C level is associated with HD initiation within 1 year of the predialysis AVF creation in NDKD patients.

BACKGROUND:The type of graft selected during anterior cruciate ligament revision is considered one of the main factors affecting the postoperative outcome,but there are few reports on the comparison between different graft materials. OBJECTIVE:To explore the medium-to-long-term clinical efficacy after anterior cruciate ligament revision with autologous ligament,allogeneic ligament,and LARS artificial ligament. METHODS:A total of 67 patients with the first anterior cruciate ligament revision admitted to the Department of Joint and Sports Medicine,The Second Hospital of Tangshan from May 2011 to May 2020 were selected,including 41 males and 26 females,with a mean age of(45.83±7.39)years.They were divided into three groups according to different grafts used:autologous ligament group(n=24),allogeneic ligament group(n=22),and LARS artificial ligament group(n=21).Follow-up for more than 36 months after revision was performed to evaluate the effect of revision. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)score,Lysholm knee score,and Tegner motor score 1 year after surgery and at the last follow-up in the three groups were higher than those before surgery(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in IKDC score,Lysholm knee score,and Tegner motor score among the three groups 1 year after surgery and the last follow-up(P>0.05).(2)The lateral differences of KT-1000 at 1 year after surgery and the last follow-up among the three groups were lower than those before surgery(P<0.05).The lateral difference of KT-1000 and the positive rate of the axial shift test in the last follow-up of the LARS artificial ligament group were higher than those in the autologous ligament group and allogeneic ligament group(P<0.05).(3)At the last follow-up,X-ray films showed no obvious enlargement of the reconstructed bone tunnel and no obvious failure of the graft fixation device.There was no obvious aggravation of osteoarthritis,but bone density decreased significantly in some elderly patients.(4)These findings suggest that anterior cruciate ligament revision with LARS artificial ligaments can obtain good initial stability,but with the extension of time,the stability of partial cases tends to decrease,even with reconstructed ligament failure.Both allogeneic and autogenous ligaments can obtain good clinical efficacy in anterior cruciate ligament revision.

Objective To evaluate the application effect of ciprofol-alfentanil in short urological surgery.Methods A total of 80 patients who were to undergo urological general anesthesia surgery in this hospital were divided into two groups by random number method:ciprofol-alfentanil group(group C)and propofol-alfentanil group(group P).Group C was injected with ciprofol 0.4 mg/kg,group P was injected with propofol 1.5-2.0 mg/kg,and when the bispectral index(BIS)was<60,the intravenous injection of alfen-tanil(10 μg/kg)and rocuronium bromide(0.6 mg/kg)was continued.When the modified alertness/sedation score(MOAA/S score)was 0,the laryngeal mask was placed and mechanical ventilation was used.During the maintenance period,ciprofol 0.8-1.2 mg·kg-1·h-1 was infused intravenously in group C,and propofol 4-6 mg·kg-1·h-1 was infused intravenously in group P.The heart rate(HR),blood pressure(BP),oxygen saturation(SpO2),end-tidal carbon dioxide(PetCO2),BIS and MOAA/S score were recorded at the begin-ning of anesthesia induction(T0),laryngeal mask insertion(T1),ureteroscopy entry(T2),10 min after sur-gery(T3)and the end of surgery(T4).The consciousness disappearance time,operation time,anesthesia re-covery time,drug dosage,injection pain during induction,hypotension,bradycardia and other adverse reactions during the operation were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in HR,SpO2,PetCO2,BIS value,MOAA/S score,operation time,consciousness disappearance time,and anesthesia recovery time be-tween the two groups at each time point(P>0.05).The dosage of sedative drugs in group C was less than that in group P(P<0.05).Compared with group P,systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure at T1-T3 and diastolic blood pressure at T4 increased in group C(P<0.05).Compared with T0,systolic blood pressure at T1-T4 in group C and group P decreased,diastolic blood pressure at T2-T4 in group C de-creased,and diastolic blood pressure at T1-T4 in group P decreased(P<0.05).Compared with group P,the injection pain and the incidence of intraoperative hypotension were reduced in group C(P<0.05).Conclusion Cipro-fol-alfentanil is superior to propofol-alfentanil in short urological surgery.

Objective To investigate the effects of anti-HLA donor-specific antibodies(DSA)and desensitization for DSA+patients on engraftment of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(haplo-HSCT).Methods The patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and examinations for HLA antibodies and DSA in our department from March 2017 to July 2023 were recruited in this study.The effects of desensitization measure on engraftment in the DSA+patients after haplo-HSCT were analyzed.Results Among the 70 patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and test for HLA antibodies,15(21.4％)patients were DSA positive,including 7(46.7％)cases of strong positive,3(20.0％)cases of moderate positive,and 5(33.3％)cases of weak positive.The median duration for neutrophil implantation was significantly extended in the DSA+patients than the negative patients(P=0.027).For the 6 patients developed graft failure(GF),4 were DSA+which was statistically higher than the DSA-patients(P=0.025).Multivariate regression analysis showed that DSA was an independent factor affecting GF(HR=9.273,95％CI:1.505～57.124,P=0.016).Among the 10 patients(7 strong positive and 3 moderate positive DSA)received desensitization therapy,4 patients received combination desensitization,with a 100％rate of successful transplantation,and 6 received single desensitization,with 4(66.7％)experiencing GF,so the GF rate was obviously lower in the combination than the single desensitization(P=0.008).Conclusion In haplo-HSCT patients,DSA is an important factor leading to implantation delay and GF.While,single desensitization treatment has limited efficacy.In combined DSA desensitization therapy,the decrease of antibody titer should be dynamically monitored to ensure the successful implantation of stem cells and reduce GF rate.
