ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of phases on the pharmacokinetic behavior of seven components from Banxia Xiexintang（BXT） in normal rats by investigating and comparing their pharmacokinetic profiles in different phase samples. MethodsThe phase separation of BXT was carried out by centrifugation-dialysis method， and three phase samples were obtained， including the precipitated phase（PP）， colloidal phase（CP） and true solution phase（TP）. A total of 24 male SD rats were randomly divided into BXT， PP， CP and TP groups（n=6）. The BXT group was gavaged at a dose of 24.1 g·kg^-1（calculated by the dosage of raw materials）. After proper treatments， PP， CP and TP groups were administrated at the same dose as that of BXT group， respectively. Blood was collected from each group at set time points after gavage of BXT and the phase samples. The contents of 7 components（baicalin， wogonoside， wogonin， berberine， palmatine， ammonium glycyrrhizinate and isoliquiritin） in rat plasma were determined by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry（UPLC-QqQ-MS/MS）， and the pharmacokinetic parameters of each component were analyzed by DAS 2.0. ResultsThe peak concentration of baicalin was the highest among the blood-entered components in each group， followed by wogonoside. The results of the concentration-time curves and pharmacokinetic parameters of the 7 components showed that the area under the concentration-time curve（AUC） of isoliquiritin in the BXT group was the highest， followed by that in the CP group. AUC values of baicalin， wogonoside， wogonin and ammonium glycyrrhizinate in the BXT group were similar to those of the CP group， and AUC of palmatine in the BXT group was similar to that of the PP group. The elimination half-life（t_1/2） values of baicalin and wogonoside in the BXT group was the longest， the t_1/2 values of ammonium glycyrrhizinate and berberine were similar to those of the CP group， and the t_1/2 of palmatine was similar to that of the PP group. The t_1/2 of wogonin was the longest in the PP group， and the t_1/2 of isoliquiritin was the longest in the TP group was the longest， which was similar to that in the PP group. Except for isoliquiritin， the other 6 components showed double peaks in the concentration-time curve of the PP group， indicating that the above components might be reabsorbed through the enterohepatic circulation in vivo， which resulted in the maintenance of high plasma concentrations for a long time， and consequently exhibited sustained-release properties. ConclusionThe pharmacokinetic characteristics of the components in different phases were different， and the CP phase may be the effective phase from the perspective of the pharmacological action of BXT. Compared with the BXT group， the in vivo action times of some components in the CP and PP groups were prolonged. The study explores the phase differences of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） compound decoction in the aspect of pharmacokinetics， and verifies that the phase states from TCM compound decoction will affect the pharmacokinetic behaviors of the active components， which may consequently lead to the difference in in vivo effects.

Objective:To summarize the genotype and clinical characteristics of chylomicron retention disease (CMRD) caused by secretion associated Ras related GTPase 1B (SAR1B) gene variations.Methods:Clinical data and genetic testing results of 2 children with CMRD treated at Children′s Hospital of Fudan University and Jiangxi Provincial Children′s Hospital from May 2022 to July 2023 were summarized. To provide an overview of the clinical and genetic characteristics of CMRD caused by SAR1B gene variations, all of the literature was searched and reviewed from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China VIP database, China Biology Medicine disc and PubMed database (up to January 2024) with "chylomicron retention disease" "Anderson disease" or "Anderson syndrome" as the search terms. All relevant literatures were reviewed to summarize the clinical and genetic features of CMRD caused by SAR1B gene variations.Results:One 11-year-old boy and one 4-month-old girl with CMRD. Both patients had lipid malabsorption, failure to thrive, decreased cholesterol, elevated transaminase and creatine kinase, and Vitamin E deficiency, with homozygous variations (c.224A>G) and compound heterozygous variations (c.224A>G and c.554G>T) in SAR1B gene, respectively. Case 1 was followed up for over a month, and he still occasionally experienced lower limb muscle pain. Case 2 was followed up for more than a year, and her had caught up to normal levels. Both patients had no other significant discomfort. Literature search retrieved 0 Chinese literature and 22 English literatures. In addition to the 2 cases reported in this study, a total of 51 patients were identified as CMRD caused by SAR1B gene variations. Twenty-one types of SAR1B variants 10 missense, 4 nonsense, 3 frameshift, 1 in-frame deletion, 1 splice, 1 gross deletion, and 1 gross insertion-deletion were found among the 51 CMRD cases. Among all the patients, 49 cases had lipid malabsorption (43 cases had diarrhea or fatty diarrhea, 17 cases had vomiting, and 12 cases had abdominal distension), 45 cases had lipid soluble Vitamin deficiency (43 cases had Vitamin E deficiency, 10 cases had Vitamin A deficiency, 9 case had Vitamin D deficiency, and 5 cases had Vitamin K deficiency), 35 cases had failure to thrive, 32 cases had liver involvement (32 cases had elevated transaminases, 5 cases had fatty liver, and 3 cases had hepatomegaly), 29 cases had white small intestinal mucosa under endoscopy, and 17 cases had elevated creatine kinase, 14 cases had neuropathy, 5 cases had ocular lesions, 2 cases had acanthocytosis, 1 case had decreased cardiac ejection fraction, and 1 case was symptom-free.Conclusions:Early infancy failure to thrive and lipid malabsorption are common issues for CMRD patients. The laboratory tests are characterized by hypocholesterolemia with or without fat-soluble Vitamin deficiency, elevated liver enzymes and (or) creatine kinase. Currently, missense variations are frequent among the primarily homozygous SAR1B genotypes that have been described.

Primary liver cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors. A liver tumor is defined as a large cancer when its diameter is ≥5 cm. Resection surgical therapy can be performed only on a small portion of large cancers because of its own features. As a result, non-resection surgical therapy has become a hot and difficult issue of widespread concern. In recent years, with the development of ablation technology, research on the use of ablation alone and ablation combined with other modalities for the treatment of large liver cancer has continued to deepen, and good clinical results have been achieved. Although there are many reports on ablation treatment for large liver cancer, there are currently no standardized treatment guidelines, and there are still controversies about treatment strategies. This article reviews the development of ablation therapy, the current status of single and combined ablation therapy, the prevention of related complications, and other aspects of large liver cancer.

Objective:To study the overall training effect of segmented training model on key fiberoptic bronchoscopy techniques for anesthesiology residents and the influence of key technique training order on the training effect.Methods:Different fiberoptic bronchoscopy simulators were used for specialized training in different key techniques of fiberoptic operation. To examine the effect of key technique learning order on the teaching effect, 40 anesthesiology residents who participated in fiberscope simulation training at Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine between November 2022 and March 2023 were selected for this study. They were randomly divided into two groups (Group S and Group M) using a numerical table method. The teaching was completed using two orders of key techniques. The operation time, operation quality score, and theoretical knowledge mastery score of the two groups were recorded to compare the effect of key technique learning order on the mastery of fiberoptic skills. SPSS 29.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. Measurement data that conformed to normal distribution were expressed as mean ± standard deviation, and the independent samples t-test or Fisher's exact test were used for comparison between groups. The chi-square test was used for comparison of enumeration data. Results:After segmented training in each key technique, both groups of trainees were able to shorten the operation time of the corresponding key technique [SM simulator operation time (132.25±14.69) s vs. (49.80±4.46) s in group S, P<0.01; M simulator operation time (82.30±11.60) s vs. (57.10±6.77) s in group S, P<0.01; SM simulator operation time (83.10±10.62) s vs. (52.10±5.20) s in group M, P<0.01; M simulator operation time (132.25±14.69) s vs. (55.40±5.91) s in group M, P<0.01)]. Moreover, both groups showed a reduced number of wall touches [SM simulator wall touches (3.35±0.93) times vs. (0.65±0.49) times in group S, P<0.01; M simulator wall touches (2.50±1.05) times vs. (0.70±0.80) times in group S, P<0.01; SM simulator wall touches (1.55±1.15) times vs. (0.40±0.50) times in group M, P<0.01; M simulator wall touches (5.90±1.29) times vs. (1.10±0.79) times in group M, P<0.01]. There were no significant differences between the two groups in the performance score of fiberoptic-guided tracheal intubation after training [(92.50±5.97) points vs. (91.75±5.45) points] and in the lung segment localization time [(23.15±4.39) s, (21.40±4.84) s, (22.85±4.42) s vs. (22.75±5.11) s, (21.00±5.40) s, (21.50±5.10) s]. Conclusions:Segmented training on key fiberoptic bronchoscopy techniques is an effective model of fiberscope training for anesthesiology residents, and the order of training key techniques does not affect the effectiveness of training.

Objective:To systematically review the life experience of patients after bariatric and metabolic surgery.Methods:We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, and VIP by computer, and included qualitative research on the life experience of patients after bariatric and metabolic surgery. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to July 31, 2020. The quality of the included article was assessed using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Australian Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center (2017) . Meta-synthesis was performed using a pooled integration approach.Results:A total of 17 articles were included.A total of 38 themes were refined and grouped into 14 categories, resulting in four research results, namely return to normality, negative experience, control, and fear of isolation.Conclusions:The life experience of patients after bariatric surgery is complex and individual, and various experiences interact with each other, not a single existence. It is suggested that medical and nursing staff should pay attention to patients from multiple angles after surgery, establish a multidisciplinary follow-up team and diversified follow-up methods, and solve the multi-level needs of patients.

Juvenile localized scleroderma (JLS) is a rare rheumatic immune disease in children, which is characterized by early inflammation and late fibrosis of skin and subcutaneous tissues.At present, the pathogenesis of JLS remains unclear, and lacks specific treatment.This study reviews the research progress of clinical assessment, drug therapy, physiotherapy and surgical therapy of JLS, aiming to provide references for clinical treatment of JLS.

Myoclonus dystonia syndrome (MDS) is an inherited movement disorder, and most MDS-related mutations have so far been found in the ε-sarcoglycan (SGCE) coding gene. By generating SGCE-knockout (KO) and human 237 C > T mutation knock-in (KI) mice, we showed here that both KO and KI mice exerted typical movement defects similar to those of MDS patients. SGCE promoted filopodia development in vitro and inhibited excitatory synapse formation both in vivo and in vitro. Loss of function of SGCE leading to excessive excitatory synapses that may ultimately contribute to MDS pathology. Indeed, using a zebrafish MDS model, we found that among 1700 screened chemical compounds, Vigabatrin was the most potent in readily reversing MDS symptoms of mouse disease models. Our study strengthens the notion that mutations of SGCE lead to MDS and most likely, SGCE functions to brake synaptogenesis in the CNS.

Objective: To explore the genetic basis for a patient with autism. Methods: High-throughput sequencing was carried out to detect copy number variations in the patient. Results: DNA sequencing found that the patient has carried a 0.11 Mb deletion in distal 2p16.3 spanning from genomic position 50 820 001 to 50 922 000, which resulted removal of exon 6 and part of intron 7 of the NRXN1 gene. The same deletion was not found his parents and brother. Conclusion Partial deletion of the NRXN1 gene may underlie the disease in this patient.
