OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of medicated serum of Siwutang on autophagy of ovarian granulosa cells （KGN cells） in polycystic ovarian syndrome （PCOS） and its underlying mechanism. METHODS Blank serum and different- concentration medicated serum of Siwutang were prepared by intragastric administration of normal saline and different doses of Siwutang [0.52， 1.04， 2.08 g/（kg·d）] in 3-month-old female SD rats. After screening the intervention concentration of Siwutang medicated serum， KGN cells were divided into control group （without any treatment）， dehydroepiandrosterone （DHEA） group （treated with 50 μmol/L DHEA for 48 h）， blank serum group （treated with 50 μmol/L DHEA for 48 h and with 10% blank serum for 72 h） and medium-concentration of Siwutang medicated serum group （treated with 50 μmol/L DHEA for 48 h and with 10% medium-concentration Siwutang medicated serum for 72 h）. The number of autophagosomes was observed in each group， and protein expressions of pathway-related proteins [fructose-1， 6-bisphosphatase 1 （FBP1），mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）， phosphorylated mTOR （p-mTOR）]， autophagy-related proteins [p62， microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3）] and mRNA expression of FBP1 were also detected. The （transfected） cells were further divided into Siwutang group （treated with 10% medium dose of Siwutang medicated serum for 72 h after 48 h intervention with 50 μmol/L DHEA）， Siwutang+si-NC group [negative control small interfering RNA （siRNA） transfected cells treated with 50 μmol/L DHEA for 48 h， and then with 10% medium-concentration of Siwutang medicated serum for 72 h] and Siwutang+si-FBP1 group （FBP1 siRNA transfected cells treated with 50 μmol/L DHEA for 48 h， and then with 10% medium-concentration Siwutang medicated serum for 72 h）. The effects of knocking down FBP1 on the above-mentioned effects of Siwutang were detected. RESULTS Compared with control group， DHEA group exhibited an increase in the number of autophagosomes， an elevated LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ and p-mTOR/mTOR， as well as increases in protein and mRNA expressions of FBP1， and decreased protein expression of p62 （P＜0.05）. Compared to both DHEA group and blank serum group， the medium-concentration of Siwutang medicated serum group showed a decrease in the number of autophagosomes， a decrease in LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ， and increases in p-mTOR/mTOR， protein expression of p62， protein and mRNA expressions of FBP1 （P＜0.05）. After knocking down FBP1， compared with Siwutang+si-NC group， Siwutang+si-FBP1 group showed a significant decrease in cell viability， protein expression of p62 ， protein and mRNA expressions of FBP1 as well as p-mTOR/mTOR， and an increase in LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Siwutang can promote the phosphorylation of mTOR protein by up- regulating the protein and mRNA expressions of FBP1 in KGN cells， thus inhibiting autophagy of KGN cells.

Tuberous sclerosis complex(TSC)is a rare genetic disease that can lead to benign dysplasia in multiple organs such as the skin, brain, eyes, oral cavity, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and bones. Its main symptoms include epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, skin depigmentation, and facial angiofibromas, whilst incidence is approximately 1 in 10 000 to 1 in 6000 newborns. This case presents a middle-aged woman who initially manifested with epilepsy and nodular depigmentation. Later, she developed a lower abdominal mass, elevated creatinine, and severe anemia. Based on clinical features and whole exome sequencing, the primary diagnosis was confirmed as TSC. Laboratory and imaging examinations revealed that the lower abdominal mass originated from the uterus. CT-guided biopsy pathology and surgical pathology suggested a combination of leiomyoma and abscess. With the involvement of multiple organs and various complications beyond the main diagnosis, the diagnostic and therapeutic process for this patient highlights the importance of rigorous clinical thinking and multidisciplinary collaboration in the diagnosis and treatment of rare and challenging diseases.

Objective:The study is to examine association of sleep duration and cognitive impairment in the older adults aged 65 years and older in China.Methods:We analyzed data from 2017-2018 wave of Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS). A total of 14 966 participants were included in the analysis. Data with respect to socioeconomic status, community involvement, behavior pattern, diet, life style, family structure, disease condition, mental health and cognitive function were collected. Cognitive function was measured with Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE). We conducted generalized linear mixed models to examine associations of sleep duration with cognitive impairment, and subgroup analyses of sex and age were conducted.Results:Among 14 966 participants, the percentage of participants aged 65 to 79 years, 80 to 89 years, 90 to 99 years and 100 years and older was 5 148 (4.40%), 3 777 (25.24%), 3 322 (22.20%) and 2 719 (18.16%), respectively. A total of 2 704 participants reported sleep duration of 5 h and less, and 3 883 reported 9 h and more, accounting for 18.94% and 27.19%, respectively. In total, 3 748 were defined with cognitive impairment, accounting for 25.04%. The results of generalized linear mixed models showed that both short (≤5 h) and long (≥ 9 h) sleep duration were associated with cognitive impairment compared with sleep duration of 7 h, with OR(95% CI) of 1.35(1.09-1.68) and 1.70(1.39-2.07), respectively. The association of sleep duration with cognitive impairment was more obvious in males and individuals aged 65 to 79 years old. Conclusion:Short or long sleep duration was responsible for increased risk of cognitive impairment in older Chinese.

This article explains the content (family presence, family support, communication with family members, consultations and ICU team members, environmental issues) and significance of PFCC in the ICU, and provides guidance for the practice of PFCC in China.

Objective To investigate the characteristics and failure risk factors of sequential high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNC) after weaning from invasive ventilation. Methods The patients who received sequential HFNC after weaning from invasive ventilation admitted to surgical intensive care unit (ICU) of Peking University People's Hospital from June 1st 2016 to May 31st 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical variables, respiratory therapy parameters, respiratory variables, cardiac variables and outcomes were reviewed and analyzed. Treatment characteristics of HFNC after weaning was analyzed. Patients were divided into HFNC success group and HFNC failure group according to the failure of HFNC, and the differences between the two groups were compared. The independent risk factors of HFNC treatment failure were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis. The value of predictive treatment failure of risk factors and regression models were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results A total of 99 patients were included, 61 men, and the median age was 67.0 (57.0, 76.0) years old. The medianinitial HFNC flow was 50 (50, 60) L/min, and inspired oxygen concentration (FiO2) was 0.50 (0.40, 0.60). Eighteen patients experienced HFNC failure (18.2%). Compared with the HFNC success group, the sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score in the HFNC failure group was higher [4 (3, 5) vs. 2 (1, 3), P < 0.01], B type natriuretic peptide (BNP) before HFNC therapy were significant higher [ng/L: 647.2 (399.2, 1 331.3) vs. 127.2 (55.2, 369.5), P < 0.01], and respiratory frequency (RR) and heart rate (HR) were significant faster, mean arterial pressure (MAP) was significant higher, oxygen index (PaO2/FiO2) was significant lower after 30 minutes HFNC treatment [RR (times/min): 26 (22, 28) vs. 19 (17, 21), HR (bpm): 105 (97, 107) vs. 85 (77, 90), MAP (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 104.3 (101.7, 110.7) vs. 92.3 (88.3, 97.7), PaO2/FiO2 (mmHg): 207.3 (185.8, 402.8) vs. 320.2 (226.2, 361.5), all P < 0.05]. It was shown by multiple Logistic regression analysis that the SOFA score [odds ratio (OR) = 2.818, P = 0.022, β = 1.036], BNP before HFNC treatment (OR = 1.002, P = 0.033, β = 0.002) and HR after HFNC treatment 30 minutes (OR = 1.140, P = 0.032, β = 0.131) were independent risk factors for HFNC treatment failure. It was shown by ROC curve that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) for the prediction of HFNC failure was 0.840, 0.859, 0.860 and 0.962 for SOFA, BNP before HFNC treatment, HR after HFNC treatment 30 minutes, and regression model, all had good forecast values (all P < 0.01). Conclusions HFNC is one of the commonly used oxygen therapy methods in the ICU, but not all patients who are treated as a sequential therapy after invasive mechanical ventilation weaning can benefit from it. SOFA score, BNP before HFNC treatment and HR after 30 minutes HFNC treatment were independent risk factors of HFNC failure. Each independent risk factor and regression model can predict the success of HFNC treatment.
