OBJECTIVE To study the protective effect and possible mechanism of soybean isoflavones against threatened miscarriage rats. METHODS Female mice were selected to promote estrus and mate with male mice. After pregnancy, they were randomly divided into normal group (purified water, i.g., n=10), model group (purified water, i.g., n=9), positive control drug group (progesterone 4 mg/kg, i.m., n=9), low-, medium- and high-dose soybean isoflavone groups (25, 50 and 100 mg/kg, i.g., n=10). Except for the normal group, the rest were given mifepristone+misoprostol on the 8th day of pregnancy to establish threatened miscarriage model, and then given purified water or drugs, once a day, on days 1-7 and 9-12 of pregnancy, respectively. At 14 days of pregnancy, the rates of fetal protection were counted. Serum levels of β-human chorionic gonadotrophin (β-HCG) and progesterone (P) in rats were detected. Pathological and morphological changes in rat placenta and decidua tissues were observed, and the apoptosis indexes of cells were detected; mRNA and protein expressions of factor of apoptosis related (Fas), factor of apoptosis related ligand (FasL), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and heparin binding epidermal growth factor (HB-EGF) were determined in placenta tissues, and mRNA and protein expressions of Fas, PCNA and HB-EGF in decidua tissues were detected. RESULTS In the model group, the placental tissues of rats were hyperemia and dilatation, with fewer and irregular blood vessels; severe stromal edema,inflammatory cell infiltration and iron-choledrin depositionwere observed. Compared with model group, the fetal survival rates, serum levels of β-HCG and P, the expressions of PCNA and HB-EGF mRNA and proteins in the placenta and decidua tissue of soybean isoflavone groups increased significantly (P< 0.05), while pathological changes were improved significantly; cell apoptosis index in the placenta and decidua tissue, the expressions of Fas, FasL mRNA and proteins in the placenta and Fas mRNA and protein in the decidua tissue decreased significantly (P<0.05). The effect of soybean isoflavones was dose-dependent (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Soybean isoflavone has protective effect on threatened miscarriage, the mechanism of which is related to down-regulating the expressions of Fas and FasL mRNA and protein at the maternal-fetal interface, and up-regulating the expressions of mRNA and protein of PCNA and HB- EGF.

Objective:To investigate the perioperative impact of closure of mesenteric fissure in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.Methods:The prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. The clinical data of 320 patients who underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy in 11 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University et al, from November 2022 to August 2023 were selected. Based on block randomization, patients were alloca-ted into the mesenteric fissure non-closure group and the mesenteric fissure closure group. Observa-tion indicators: (1) grouping of the enrolled patients; (2) intraoperative conditions; (3) postopera-tive conditions. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) and com-parison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were represen-ted as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the rank sum test. Comparison of visual analog scores was analyzed using generalized estimating equations. Results:(1) Grouping of the enrolled patients. A total of 320 patients with colon cancer were screened for eligibility, including 156 males and 164 females, aged 68(59,73)years. All the 320 patients were allocated into the mesenteric fissure non-closure group with 164 cases and the mesenteric fissure closure group with 156 cases. There was no significant difference in the age, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologist score, maximum tumor diameter, anastomosis location, anastomosis method, surgical approach, range of lymph node dissection, tumor staging between the two groups ( P>0.05) and there was a significant difference in the sex between them ( P<0.05). (2) Intraoperative conditions. There was no significant difference between the mesenteric fissure closure group and the mesenteric fissure non-closure group in the volume of intraoperative blood loss, operation time, conversion to laparotomy, intraoperative complication ( P>0.05). Three patients in the mesenteric fissure non-closure group were converted to laparotomy. One patient in the mesenteric fissure closure group was converted to laparotomy, and 2 cases with intraoperative complication were mesenteric hematoma. (3) Postoperative conditions. There was no significant difference between the mesenteric fissure non-closure group and the mesenteric fissure closure group in the overall postoperative complications ( χ2=0.28, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative intestinal obstruction, abdominal distension, ascites, pleural effusion, gastric paralysis, anastomotic bleeding, anastomotic leakage, or surgical wound infection between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the reoperation, postoperative gastric tube replacement. There was no significant differ-ence in time to postoperative first flatus, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake, time to post-operative resumption of bowel movements, duration of postoperative hospital stay, total hospital expenses between the two groups ( Z=-0.01, 0.43, 1.04, -0.54, -0.36, P>0.05). One patient in the mesenteric fissure non-closure group received reoperation. No perioperative internal hernia or death occurred in either group. The visual analog score decreased with time in both groups. There was no significant difference in the visual analog score between the mesenteric fissure closure group and the mesenteric fissure non-closure group [ β=-0.20(-0.53,0.13), P>0.05]. Conclusion:Compared with closure of mesenteric fissure, non-closure of mesenteric fissure during laparoscopic right hemi-colectomy dose not increase perioperative complications or postoperative management risk.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and possible mechanism of bifidobacterium tetralogy combined with escitalopram oxalate in the treatment of patients with depression and to provide evidence for further clinical research.Methods:A total of 100 patients with depression who received treatment in Taizhou Second People's Hospital from September 2019 to March 2021 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either escitalopram oxalate and placebo (control group, n = 50) or escitalopram oxalate and bifidobacterium tetralogy (observation group, n = 50). All patients received 9 weeks of treatment. Psychological status pre- and post-treatment was evaluated using the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety. Serum cortisol, inflammatory factors interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels were detected using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:Physiological status scores in each group were significantly lower after treatment compared with before treatment. Scores of the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression and the Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety scores post-treatment in the observation group were (10.78 ± 2.03) points and (6.37 ± 2.58) points, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(16.78 ± 2.85) points, (13.23 ± 2.95) points, t = 11.40, 13.38, both P < 0.001]. Serum levels of cortisol, inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α in each group were significantly decreased after treatment compared with before treatment. Serum levels of cortisol, inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α post-treatment in the observation group were (137.34 ± 63.29) μg/L, (14.38 ± 6.08)ng/L, (13.95 ± 6.46) ng/L, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(181.22 ± 59.27) μg/L, (25.94 ± 6.92) ng/L, (20.44 ± 6.24) ng/L, t = 15.29, 6.16, 9.24, all P < 0.001). Conclusion:Bifidobacterium tetralogy combined with escitalopram oxalate is highly effective on depression. The combined therapy can remarkably reduce depression and anxiety symptoms and greatly decrease serum cortisol, IL-1β, and TNF-α levels.

Objective:To study the real-world outcome of China FDA-approved Sofosbuvir (SOF)/Velpatasvir (VEL) in Northwest China.Methods:In this multicenter, prospective, real-world cohort study, we recruited patients from 10 sites from Northwest China, who were chronically infected with HCV GTs 1-6 from 06/2018 to 09/2019. Patients received SOF (400mg)/VEL (100mg) for 12 weeks, and with ribavirin 900-1200 mg for GT3 cirrhosis and for any genotype decompensated cirrhosis. The primary endpoint was sustained virological response at 12-weeks post-treatment (SVR12) and safety. The secondary endpoint was the change of liver function after the achievement of SVR12.Results:Totally, 143 patients were enrolled in the study, four patients were lost to follow-up and one died during the follow-up, 138 patients were included in per-protocol analysis. Of the 138 patients, the mean age 53 years, 53.6% male, 94.2% Han nationality, 53.6% liver cirrhosis, 10.1% HBsAg +, 6.5% renal dysfunction, 5.1% treatment-experienced, and 16.7% patients received ribavirin treatment. The genotype distribution was as follows: 35.5% GT1, 42.8% GT2, 15.9% GT3, and 5.8% un-typed. The SVR12 rate was 96.5% (138/143, 95% CI: 93.5%-99.6%) for intention-to-treat analysis, and in per-protocol analysis, all 138 patients obtained SVR12 (100%). Compared with baseline, the serum total bilirubin, ALT and AFP levels decreased (all P < 0.05), as well as increased ALB and platelet count (all P < 0.001) at post-treatment 12-weeks. Overall adverse events (AEs) rate is 29.0%, and the most common AEs were anemia (14.5%) and fatigue (8.0%). Severe side effects (edema and fatigue) occurred in 2 patients, one of whom needed a short-term interruption of treatment due to fatigue. Conclusion:In this real-world cohort study, 12-week SOF/VEL regimen with or without ribavirin achieved high SVR12 rates (96.5%-100% overall) with excellent safety profile among patients with HCV GT1/2/3 infection including patients with GT3 and cirrhosis, and led to improvement of liver function.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of regional leptomeningeal collateral circulation scale (rLMC) based on multimodal CT in recanalization of blood vessels in patients with acute ischemic stroke after thrombectomy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of patients with acute ischemic stroke within 6 h of first onset, admitted to our hospital from October 2017 to December 2019. Before operation, the conditions of their vessels were evaluated by rLMC based on multimodal CT. Two areas, anterior cerebral artery (ACA)-middle cerebral artery (MCA) area and posterior cerebral artery (PCA)-MCA area, were divided. The total rLMC scores of two areas (0-10) were calculated: scores of 0-3, scores of 4-7, scores of 8-10. After admission, the recanalization of the blood vessels after thrombectomy was evaluated immediately according to grading of thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (TICI) after completion of thrombectomy within the time window; TICI grading≥II was defined as succeed recanalization. The correlation between rLMC scores and vascular recanalization in patients with acute ischemic stroke was evaluated.Results:Among the 80 patients, 17 were in the rLMC scores of 0-3 group, 25 in the group of rLMC scores of 4-7, and 38 in the group of rLMC scores of 8-10; 68 patients (85.00%) had vascular recanalization, and the success rate of vascular recanalization in patients from the group of rLMC scores of 8-10 was significantly higher than that in the group of rLMC scores of 0-3 (97.36% vs. 58.82%, P<0.05). Correlation analysis results showed that the rLMC score was positively correlated with success rate of vascular recanalization ( r s=0.625, P=0.000); whose sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were 89.5%, 90.9%, 94.45%, 83.3% and 90.0%, respectively. Conclusion:The rLMC is closely related to the recanalization rate in patients with acute ischemic stroke after thrombectomy; the success rate of recanalization after intravascular treatment is relatively high in patients with rLMC scores of 8-10.
