This experiment aims to study the taste-masking effects of different kinds of corrigent used individually and in combination on ibuprofen oral solution, in order to optimize the taste-masking formulation. Firstly, a wide range of corrigent and the mass fractions were extensively screened using electronic tongue technology. Subsequently, a combination of sensory evaluation, analytic hierarchy process (AHP)-fuzzy mathematics evaluation, and Box-Behnken experimental design were employed to comprehensively assess the taste-masking effects of different combinations of corrigent on ibuprofen oral solution, optimize the taste-masking formulation, and validate the results. The study received ethical approval from the Review Committee of the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine (ethical code: 2024BZYLL0102). The results showed that corrigent fractions and types were screened separately through single-factor experiments. Subsequently, a Box-Behnken response surface design combined with AHP and fuzzy mathematics evaluation was used to fit a functional model: Z = 688.310 11 - 3 023.722 22X₁ - 11.477 00X₂ + 62.721 67X₃ + 14.600 00X₁X₂ - 179.666 67X₁X₃ - 3.152 00X₂X₃ + 4 031.111 11X₁² + 0.525 28X₂² + 9.772 00X₃². This model is stable and reliable, determining the optimal taste-masking formulation to be 3.9 g·L^-1 of stevioside, 100 g L^-1 of xylitol, and 30 g L^-1 of methyl-β-cyclodextrin. The comprehensive score of the verification test is 88.14, with a relative RSD of 0.39%, indicating the feasibility of this model. This study achieved the improvement of the taste of ibuprofen oral solution through a combination of objective and subjective methods. Three types of corrigent were identified for enhancing drug taste, leading to the selection of the optimal taste-masking formulation for ibuprofen oral solution. This significantly enhanced the taste of the original formulation, improved patient compliance, and offered a new approach to mitigating the undesirable taste of formulations.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

This paper explores the factors influencing the health-related quality of life (HRQL) of adult patients undergoing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) from five dimensions based on the health ecology model: personal characteristics, behavioral traits, interpersonal networks, work and living environment, and policy environment. The aim is to provide a theoretical basis for proposing evidence-based interventions to effectively improve the HRQL of adult ECMO patients.

Objective To assess the application value of sequential non-invasive prenatal testing(NIPT)for pregnant women with abnormal single values of early Down's screening.Methods A total of 1 631 pregnant women with abnormal single values of traditional early Down's screening were selected from Shenzhen Long-hua Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January to October in 2022,and all of them voluntarily under-went NIPT with signed informed consent.The high-risk samples screned by NIPT wre conducted invasive prenatal diagnosis and tracked pregnancy outcomes,and yet low-risk pregnant women was followed up after the due date.Results Among all the pregnant women,a total of 10 high-risk samples of fetal chromosomal aneuploidy were detected by sequential NIPT,including 1 case of trisomy 21,1 case of trisomy 18,7 cases of sex chromosome abnormalities,and 1 case of other autosomal abnormalities.9 cases of high-risk pregnant women received invasive prenatal diagnosis,and 5 cases were consistent with NIPT results,which had yielded a positive predictive value of 55.56％.Among them,the positive predictive values of trisomy 21,trisomy 18,sex chromosome abnormalities and other autosomal abnormalities were 100.00％,100.00％,50.00％,0.00％,resepectively.Conclusion Sequential NIPT could improve the detection of defective children in pregnant women with abnormal single values of early Down's screening,which has certain guiding value for expanding screening to reduce the birth of defective children.In view of its low positive predictive value,pregnant women with abnormal single value of Down's screening should be paid more attention,and further prenatal diagnosis may be necessary to reduce the birth rate of defective children.

Objective:To explore the genetic basis for a child with developmental delay and intellectual deficit (DD/ID).Methods:A child who was admitted to the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Longhua District of Shenzhen City on June 3, 2023 due to DD/ID, craniofacial malformations, and recurrent infections of upper respiratory tract was selected as the study subject. G-banded chromosomal karyotyping was carried out for the child and her parents. Low-depth genome-wide copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were used to screen for genome-wide copy number variation (CNV), and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to verify the origin of candidate CNV. This study was approved by the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Longhua District of Shenzhen City(Ethics No. 2023052504). Results:The child, an 8-year-old girl, had featured unexplained growth and intellectual development delay, multiple craniofacial malformations, and recurrent infections of the upper respiratory tract. She was found to have a karyotype of 46, XX, der(6)add(6)(q23), while both of her parents were normal. Both CNV-seq and CMA showed that the child has harbored a 21.38 Mb interstitial duplication at 6p25.3p22.3 and a 0.78 Mb terminal deletion at 6p25. FISH verified that both the duplication and deletion had occurred de novo. Conclusion:The abnormal phenotype of the child may be attributed to the 6p duplication and terminal deletion.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the injury and ferroptosis of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)induced by high glucose and high fat.Methods BMSCs were divided into normal group(5.50 mmol·L-1 glucose)and high glucose and high fat(HGHF)group(25.00 mmol·L-1 glucose+0.25 mmol·L-1 palmitic acid).Assessment of cellular aging via β-galactosidase staining;enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)were used to detect tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-10(IL-10)release levels;glutathione(GSH),malondialdehyde(MDA)and ferrous ion(Fe2+)detection kits were used to detect ferroptosis related indicators;Western blotting was used to detect the expression of ferroptosis related signaling pathway protein acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4(ACS14)/arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase(ALOX15)/glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4).Results The senescence rates of normal group HGHF group were(6.80±1.60)％and(13.00±1.58)％;the levels of TNF-α were(122.54±3.94)and(169.77±2.89)pg·mL-1;the levels of IL-10 were(155.16±3.97)and(105.15±7.30)pg·mL-1;GSH levels were 4.30±0.33 and 1.55±0.14;MDA levels were 2.94±0.10 and 5.84±0.10;Fe2+levels were 6.22±0.35 and 16.13±0.36;the relative expression levels of ACSL4 protein were 0.42±0.05 and 0.84±0.10;the relative ALOX15 protein were 0.61±0.25 and 1.06±0.11;the relative expression levels of GPX4 protein were 1.13±0.17 and 0.33±0.08,respectively.The above indexes in the HGHF group were significantly different from those in the normal group(all P＜0.05).Conclusion 25 mmol·L-1 glucose combined with 0.25 mmol·L-1 palmitic acid for 24 h can be used as a suitable condition to induce BMSCs injury.ferroptosis plays an important role in BMSCs injury induced by high glucose and high fat.

Background: Diabetes-induced cardiac fibrosis is one of the main mechanisms of diabetic cardiomyopathy. As a common histone methyltransferase, enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) has been implicated in fibrosis progression in multiple organs. However, the mechanism of EZH2 in diabetic myocardial fibrosis has not been clarified. Methods: In the current study, rat and mouse diabetic model were established, the left ventricular function of rat and mouse were evaluated by echocardiography and the fibrosis of rat ventricle was evaluated by Masson staining. Primary rat ventricular fibroblasts were cultured and stimulated with high glucose (HG) in vitro. The expression of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27) trimethylation, EZH2, and myocardial fibrosis proteins were assayed. Results: In STZ-induced diabetic ventricular tissues and HG-induced primary ventricular fibroblasts in vitro, H3K27 trimethylation was increased and the phosphorylation of EZH2 was reduced. Inhibition of EZH2 with GSK126 suppressed the activation, differentiation, and migration of cardiac fibroblasts as well as the overexpression of the fibrotic proteins induced by HG. Mechanical study demonstrated that HG reduced phosphorylation of EZH2 on Thr311 by inactivating AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which transcriptionally inhibited peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) expression to promote the fibroblasts activation and differentiation. Conclusion Our data revealed an AMPK/EZH2/PPAR-γ signal pathway is involved in HG-induced cardiac fibrosis.

Helicobacter pylori is a common gram-negative bacterium, which is associated with a variety of gastroenteric diseases, such as gastritis, duodenal ulcer and gastric cancer. Recent studies suggested a potential role of Helicobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of common ocular diseases, such as central serous chorioretinopathy, glaucoma, anterior uveitis and ocular adnexal lymphoma. Helicobacter pylori might affect the pathophysiological process of ocular diseases through oxidative damage, circulatory disorders and immune injury. Some studies also suggested that eradication of Helicobacter pylori had certain effects on some ocular diseases. This review aims to summarize current evidence of the Helicobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of common ocular diseases, so as to encourage innovative approaches in the prevention and treatment of these ocular diseases.
