Objective To analyze the incidence and risk factors of hypothermia in elderly patients with malnutrition during proximal femoral nail antirotation(PFNA)internal fixation under general anesthesia.Methods A total of 139 elderly patients underwent PFNA internal fixation under general anesthesia were selected,and the nutritional status scores 1 day before surgery ranged from 0 to 11 points.Univariate and multivariate Logistic binary regression analysis was performed to analyze the related factors that may lead to intraoperative hypothermia.Results Among 139 elderly patients with preoperative nutritional scores of 0 to 11 points,79 cases(56.83%)developed intraoperative hypothermia.The results of univariate and multivariate Logistic binary regression analysis suggested that age≥75 years old,mini nutritional assessment short form(MNA-SF)nutritional score 0 to 7 points,BMI<18.5 kg/m2,duration of general anesthesia≥2 hours,intraoperative flushing fluid volume≥1 000 mL and intraoperative fluid volume≥1 000 mL were the risk factors for the occurrence of intraoperative hypothermia in elderly patients(OR>1,P<0.05).The use of warm blanket insulation was the protective factor against the occurrence of intraoperative hypothermia(OR<1,P<0.05).Conclusion The incidence of intraoperative hypothermia during PFNA internal fixation under general anesthesia in elderly patients with mainutrition before operation is high,and patients with poor nutritional status are more likely to develop intraoperative hypothermia.Patients with older age,poor nutritional status,lower BMI,longer duration of general anesthesia,and more intraoperative flushing fluid volume and intraoperative fluid volume are likely to lead to intraoperative hypothermia.The use of warm blanket can reduce the incidence of intraoperative hypothermia.

Objective To detect the changes of mitophagy level in rats with endplate cartilage degeneration induced by spinal instability,and explore the role of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in endplate cartilage and intervertebral disc degeneration.Methods The rat spinal instability model was established by surgically removing the superspinal and interspinal ligaments of L2 to L5,and cleaning the bilateral articular processes of the L2 to L5.Eighteen SD rats were divided into the normal group,the degenerative group,and the carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone(CCCP)group,with 6 rats in each group.The rats in the normal group had no special treatment,the rats in the degenerative group constructed a rat spinal instability model,and the rats in the CCCP group were injected with 5 μL of CCCP(10 μmol/L)in the intervertebral disc after the construction of spinal instability model.The changes of histomorphology in the endplate cartilage and intervertebral disc were abserved by HE staining,and the change of extracellular matrix of endplate cartilage was observed by safranin O-fast green staining.RT-PCR detected the mRNA expression of type Ⅱ collagen(COL-2A),aggrecan(ACAN),PINK1 and Parkin in each group.The changes of the protein expression levels of COL-2A,ACAN,PINK1,Parkin and mitochondrial membrane proteins of Tomm20 and Timm23 were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the normal group,the intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus of rats in the degenerative group was significantly destroyed and the secretion of extracellular matrix of endplate chondrocytes decreased;while the structure of intervertebral discs for rats in the CCCP group was more intact,and the secretion of extracellular matrix of endplate chondrocytes was significantly increased compared with that in the degenerative group.Compared with the normal group,the expression of COL-2A and ACAN in endplate cartilage tissues of rats in the degenerative group were significantly down-regulated(P<0.05),the expression of mitochon-drial autophagy-related genes of PINK1 and Parkin were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the expression of mitochondrial membrane proteins of Tomm20 and Timm23 were increased(P<0.05).Compared with the degenerative group,the expression of COL-2A,ACAN,PINKI and Parkin in the endplate cartilage tissue of rats in the CCCP group were significantly up-regulated(P<0.05),and the protein levels of Tomm20 and Timm23 were significantly down-regulated(P<0.05).Conclusion Rat spinal instability leads to a decrease level of mitophagy mediated by PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway in endplate cartilage,thereby inducing endplate cartilage and intervertebral disc degeneration,and the activation of mitophagy can significantly reduce endplate cartilage and intervertebral disc degeneration.

Tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs)are the predominant cell group in the tumor microenvironment(TME)and are the most important regulatory cells of immune system suppression and tumor cell proliferation in TIME.Src homology-2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2(SHP-2)is a non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase that plays an important role in the transmission of signals from the cell surface to the nucleus.SHP-2 is a key intracellular regulatory factor mediating cell proliferation and differentiation and is involved in a variety of growth factor and cytokine signaling pathways linking the cell surface to the nucleus.Recent studies have shown that SHP-2 is a key enzyme in determining the function of TAMs,but because of its variable function,it plays different or even opposite roles in different solid TMEs.This paper reviews the function of SHP-2 in TAMs and related solid tumors to provide a comprehensive reference for tumor immunity and targeted therapy research.

The abuse of novel phenylcyclohexylpyridine drugs poses a significant threat to societal safety. The novel psychoactive substance 2-methyl-deschloroketamine (2-MDCK), belonging to the phenylcyclohexylpyridine class, has recently surfaced as a new compound. However, there is a lack of understanding regarding its metabolic pathways and the identification of suitable biomarkers. In this study, a human liver microsomal model was established, and ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) technology was applied to investigate the in vitro metabolism and products of 2-MDCK. The results indicate that 2-MDCK undergoes various metabolic reactions, including dehydrogenation, deamination, hydroxylation, and demethylation, leading to the formation of eight metabolites. By conducting actual testing on hair samples from 2-MDCK abusers, the existence of six metabolites was confirmed. Comparing the metabolic products in the liver microsomal in vitro model, M3.1 and M4.1 were identified as biomarkers for 2-MDCK consumption. Five samples of abusers of 2-methyl-dechloroketamine were provided by the Anti-Drug Brigade of the Hangzhou Public Security Bureau. Negative hair samples were provided by laboratory volunteers, and all samples were obtained with the informed consent of the volunteers. These findings provide a scientific basis for the detection and identification of 2-MDCK and its metabolites, as well as crucial support for the study of the metabolic mechanisms of similar novel psychoactive substances in the phenylcyclohexylpyridine class. This research holds significant importance in addressing the issue of abuse of new psychoactive substances.

Tooth extraction is a common and widely employed therapeutic procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery.Minimally invasive tooth extraction can reduce both physical and psychological trauma to the patients,and is widely recommended as a first-line clinical treatment.But currently no guidelines or consensus has been available to provide a systematic introduction of minimally invasive tooth extraction to guide the clinical practices.To address this issue,this consensus,based on a comprehensive literature review and clinical experiences of experts,systematically summarizes the indications,target patients,and contraindications of minimally invasive tooth extraction,the overall workflow of this procedure(preoperative preparation,surgical steps,postoperative management,postoperative instructions,medications,and follow-up),and its common postoperative complications to provide a comprehensive guidance for clinical application of this technique.

Background::The 2017 American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association (ACC/AHA) blood pressure (BP) guideline lowered the threshold defining hypertension to 130/80 mmHg. However, how stage 1 hypertension defined using this guideline is associated with cardiovascular events in Chinese adults remains unclear. This study assessed the association between stage 1 hypertension defined by the 2017 ACC/AHA guideline and clinical outcomes in the Chinese population.Methods::Participants with stage 1 hypertension ( n = 69,509) or normal BP ( n = 34,142) were followed in this study from 2006/2007 to 2020. Stage 1 hypertension was defined as a systolic blood pressure of 130–139 mmHg or a diastolic blood pressure of 80–89 mmHg. None were taking antihypertensive medication or had a history of myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, or cancer at baseline. The primary outcome was a composite of MI, stroke, and all-cause mortality. The secondary outcomes were individual components of the primary outcome. Cox proportional hazards models were used for the analysis. Results::During a median follow-up of 11.09 years, we observed 10,479 events (MI, n = 995; stroke, n = 3408; all-cause mortality, n = 7094). After multivariable adjustment, the hazard ratios for stage 1 hypertension vs. normal BP were 1.20 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.13–1.25) for primary outcome, 1.24 (95% CI, 1.05–1.46) for MI, 1.45 (95% CI, 1.33–1.59) for stroke, and 1.11 (95% CI, 1.04–1.17) for all-cause mortality. The hazard ratios for participants with stage 1 hypertension who were prescribed antihypertensive medications compared with those without antihypertensive treatment during the follow-up was 0.90 (95% CI, 0.85–0.96). Conclusions::Using the new definition, Chinese adults with untreated stage 1 hypertension are at higher risk for MI, stroke, and all-cause mortality. This finding may help to validate the new BP classification system in China.

ObjectiveGastric cancer (GC) seriously affects human health and life, and research has shown that it is closely related to the serine/glycine metabolism. The proliferation ability of tumor cells is greatly influenced by the metabolism of serine and glycine. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism of serine/glycine metabolism can affect the proliferation of gastric cancer cells. MethodsIn this work, a stable metabolic dynamic model of gastric cancer cells was established via a large-scale metabolic network dynamic modeling method in terms of a potential landscape description of stochastic and non-gradient systems. Based on the regulation of the model, a quantitative analysis was conducted to investigate the dynamic mechanism of serine/glycine metabolism affecting the proliferation of gastric cancer cells. We introduced random noise to the kinetic equations of the general metabolic network, and applied stochastic kinetic decomposition to obtain the Lyapunov function of the metabolic network parameter space. A stable metabolic network was achieved by further reducing the change in the Lyapunov function tied to the stochastic fluctuations. ResultsDespite the unavailability of a large number of dynamic parameters, we were able to successfully construct a dynamic model for the metabolic network in gastric cancer cells. When extracellular serine is available, the model preferentially consumes serine. In addition, when the conversion rate of glycine to serine increases, the model significantly upregulates the steady-state fluxes of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) and S-adenosyl homocysteine (SAH). ConclusionIn this paper, we provide evidence supporting the preferential uptake of serine by gastric cancer cells and the important role of serine/glycine conversion rate in SAM generation, which may affect the proliferation ability of gastric cancer cells by regulating the cellular methylation process. This provides a new idea and direction for targeted cancer therapy based on serine/glycine metabolism.
