In recent years, researches have shown that microglia drive their phenotype polarization through energy and substance metabolism reprogramming, thereby exerting pro-inflammatory or anti-inflammatory effects, which is closely associated with the risk of ischemic stroke. Their specific metabolic pathways involve glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism. This article reviews regulatory mechanisms of microglia metabolism after ischemic stroke and their role in ischemic stroke.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of antaitasvir phosphate 100 mg or 200 mg combined with yiqibuvir for 12 weeks in patients with various genotypes of chronic hepatitis C, without cirrhosis or compensated stage cirrhosis.Methods:Patients with chronic hepatitis C (without cirrhosis or compensated stage cirrhosis) were randomly assigned to the antaitasvir phosphate 100 mg+yiqibuvir 600 mg group (100 mg group) or the antaitasvir phosphate 200 mg+yiqibuvir 600 mg group (200 mg group) in a 1∶1 ratio. The drugs were continuously administered once a day for 12 weeks and observed for 24 weeks after drug withdrawal. The drug safety profile was assessed concurrently with the observation of the sustained virological response (SVR12) in the two patient groups 12 weeks following the drug cessation. The intention-to-treat concept was used to define as closely as possible a full analysis set, including all randomized cases who received the experimental drug at least once. The safety set was collected from all subjects who received the experimental drug at least once (regardless of whether they participated in the randomization group) in this study. All efficacy endpoints and safety profile data were summarized using descriptive statistics. The primary efficacy endpoint was SVR12. The primary analysis was performed on a full analysis set. The frequency and proportion of cases were calculated in the experimental drug group (antaitasvir phosphate capsules combined with yiqibuvir tablets) that achieved "HCV RNA

The condition of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) complicated by corona virus 2019 disease (COVID-19) is complex. sTBI can significantly increase the probability of COVID-19 developing into severe or critical stage, while COVID-19 can also increase the surgical risk of sTBI and the severity of postoperative lung lesions. There are many contradictions in the treatment process, which brings difficulties to the clinical treatment of such patients. Up to now, there are few clinical studies and therapeutic norms relevant to sTBI complicated by COVID-19. In order to standardize the clinical treatment of such patients, Critical Care Medicine Branch of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Healthcare and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Chinese expert consensus on clinical treatment of adult patients with severe traumatic brain injury complicated by corona virus infection 2019 ( version 2023) based on the joint prevention and control mechanism scheme of the State Council and domestic and foreign literatures on sTBI and COVID-19 in the past 3 years of the international epidemic. Fifteen recommendations focused on emergency treatment, emergency surgery and comprehensive management were put forward to provide a guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of sTBI complicated by COVID-19.

Traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage commonly presents in traumatic brain injury patients, and it may lead to complications such as meningitis, ventriculitis, brain abscess, subdural hematoma or tension pneumocephalus. When misdiagnosed or inappropriately treated, traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage may result in severe complications and may be life-threatening. Some traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage has concealed manifestations and is prone to misdiagnosis. Due to different sites and mechanisms of trauma and degree of cerebrospinal fluid leak, treatments for traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage varies greatly. Hence, the Craniocerebral Trauma Professional Group of Neurosurgery Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Neurological Injury Professional Group of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage in adults ( version 2023)" based on existing clinical evidence and experience. The consensus consisted of 16 recommendations, covering the leakage diagnosis, localization, treatments, and intracranial infection prevention, so as to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic cerebrospinal fluid leakage and improve the overall prognosis of the patients.

【Objective】 To investigate the mechanism of pristane inducing autophagy in macrophages. 【Methods】 Pristane was used to stimulate NR8383, a rat macrophage cell line. The changes in signaling pathways of AMPK, mTOR, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways including eIF2α and IRE1α in the cell model, as well as the expression of transcriptional factor TFEB and its translocation to the nucleus, were detected by using Western blotting. ER stress pathways were intervened by using an inducer DTT or an inhibitor 4-PBA to determin its effect on mTOR expression and autophay. 【Results】 In pristane-stimulated NR8383 cell model, ER stress pathway eIF2α was activated at 0.5 h after stimulation, and then mTOR expression was decreased at 1 and 3 h after stimulation. There was no change for AMPK and IRE1α pathways. With 4-PBA treatment, pristane-reduced mTOR expression and increased LC3-II were reversed, while with DTT treatment, mTOR expression decreased and LC3-II expression increased even more. Pristane induced the expression and activation of TFEB in NR8383 cells. 【Conclusion】 Pristane induces ER stress and leads to autophagy enhancement in rat macrophages.

Objective:To use three-dimensional (3D) scanning to measure the preoperative and postoperative nasal parameters of the patients received rhinoplasty with ear cartilage and silicone prosthesis, and to evaluate the clinical effect of the surgery.Methods:Sixteen female patients with an average age of 28.3 years, ranged from 21 to 35 years, received rhinoplasty with ear cartilage and silicone prosthesis in Wuhan Tongji Hospital from June 2018 to February 2019. Preoperative and postoperative 3D scanning was performed to measure nasal parameters, including linear length, angle, and proportional index.Results:All patients were satisfied with the postoperative outcomes. The postoperative nasal length, nasal height, and nasal depth increased significantly, and the postoperative nasal width and nasal tip width decreased. The postoperative nasolabial angle and nasofrontal angle were statistically improved, while the preoperative and postoperative data of columellar facial angle, nasal tip angle, and nasal column-lobular angle were not significantly different. The ratios of nasal depth and nasal width, nasal index and nasal tip protrusion were improved after surgery, while the postoperative ratios of nasal columella and nasal lobules length were not statistically improved.Conclusions:The 3D scanning allows for comprehensive and accurate measurement of the nasal parameters. The rhinoplasty with ear cartilage and silicone prosthesis is more effective in improving the overall contour of the nose, but less effective in improving the aesthetics of the nasal tip.

Objective:To summarize the patient profiles and therapeutic efficacies of ABO-incompatible living-related kidney transplantations at 19 domestic transplant centers and provide rationales for clinical application of ABOi-KT.Methods:Clinical cases of ABO-incompatible/compatible kidney transplantation (ABOi-KT/ABOc-KT) from December 2006 to December 2009 were collected. Then, statistical analyses were conducted from the aspects of tissue matching, perioperative managements, complications and survival rates of renal allograft or recipients.Results:Clinical data of 342 ABOi-KT and 779 ABOc-KT indicated that (1) no inter-group differences existed in age, body mass index (BMI), donor-recipient relationship or waiting time of pre-operative dialysis; (2) ABO blood type: blood type O recipients had the longest waiting list and transplantations from blood type A to blood type O accounted for the largest proportion; (3) HLA matching: no statistical significance existed in mismatch rate or positive rate of PRA I/II between two types of surgery; (4) CD20 should be properly used on the basis of different phrases; (5) hemorrhage was a common complication during an early postoperative period and microthrombosis appeared later; (6) no difference existed in postoperative incidence of complications or survival rate of renal allograft and recipients at 1/3/5/10 years between ABOi-KT and ABOc-KT. The acute rejection rate and serum creatinine levels of ABOi-KT recipients were comparable to those of ABOc-KT recipients within 1 year.Conclusions:ABOi-KT is both safe and effective so that it may be applied at all transplant centers as needed.
