BACKGROUND:Exercise has a regulatory effect on intestinal flora dysbiosis,which can effectively protect the beneficial flora and improve the intestinal environment.However,the effect of treadmill exercise on the structure and diversity of intestinal microbial community in Parkinson's disease and the specific mechanism are not clear. OBJECTIVE:Using 16S rDNA technique to analyze the effect of treadmill exercise on the structure and diversity of the intestinal flora of rats with Parkinson's disease,and to investigate the mechanism of non-pharmacological treadmill exercise to improve Parkinson's disease. METHODS:Twelve of the 18 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly selected to make animal models of Parkinson's disease using unilateral 2-point nigrostriatal injection of 6-hydroxydopamine.The remaining six rats were used as sham-operation group,which were injected with the same dose of saline containing 0.2%ascorbic acid using the same positioning and injection method.After successful modeling,12 rats with Parkinson's disease were randomly divided into model group and treadmill exercise group(n=6 per group).The treadmill exercise group was subjected to a middle and low intensity tread mill exercise,10 m/min,30 minutes per day,5 days per week for 4 weeks.Fresh feces were collected and stored in liquid nitrogen 24 hour after the last exercise session,and the changes in fecal flora were analyzed by 16S rDNA sequencing technique. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Treadmill exercise significantly improved behavior and nigrostriatal tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cell expression in rats with Parkinson's disease model and alleviated changes in the structure and diversity of the gut microbial community caused by Parkinson's disease,increased the number of operational taxonomic units and modulated Alpha and Beta diversity in rats.At the phylum and genus levels,the abundance ratio of Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes in the model group decreased compared with the sham-operated group,while beneficial bacteria such as Prevotella,Bacteroides,and Clostridium_XlV increased significantly after treadmill exercise.To conclude,treadmill exercise has a significant modulating effect on behavioral abnormalities,toxic damage to dopaminergic neurons and gut microbial imbalance caused by Parkinson's disease,alleviates the symptoms of flora-related diseases,and has a positive effect on the improvement of Parkinson's disease.

Objective:To explore the robust relationship between insomnia and type 2 diabetes mellitus by two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis to overcome confounding factors and reverse causality in observational studies.Methods:We identified strong,independent single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)of insomnia from the most up to date genome wide association studies(GWAS)within European ancestors and applied them as instrumental variable to GWAS of type 2 diabetes mellitus.After excluding SNPs that were significantly associated with smoking,physical activity,alcohol consumption,educational attainment,obesity,or type 2 diabetes mellitus,we assessed the impact of insomnia on type 2 diabetes mellitus using inverse variance weighting(IVW)method.Weighted median and MR-Egger regression analysis were also conducted to test the robustness of the association.We calculated the F statistic of the selected SNPs to test the applicability of instrumental variable and F statistic over than ten indicated that there was little possibility of bias of weak instrumental variables.We further examined the existence of pleiotropy by testing whether the intercept term in MR-Egger regression was significantly different from ze-ro.In addition,the leave-one-out method was used for sensitivity analysis to verify the stability and relia-bility of the results.Results:We selected 248 SNPs independently associated with insomnia at the genome-wide level(P＜5 ×10-8)as a preliminary candidate set of instrumental variables.After clum-ping based on the reference panel from 1000 Genome Project and removing the potential pleiotropic SNPs,a total of 167 SNPs associated with insomnia were included as final instrumental variables.The F statistic of this study was 39.74,which was in line with the relevance assumption of Mendelian randomi-zation.IVW method showed insomnia was associated with higher risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus that po-pulation with insomnia were 1.14 times more likely to develop type 2 diabetes mellitus than those without insomnia(95％CI:1.09-1.21,P＜0.001).The weighted median estimator(WME)method and MR-Egger regression showed similar causal effect of insomnia on type 2 diabetes mellitus.And MR-Egger re-gression also showed that the effect was less likely to be triggered by pleiotropy.Sensitivity analyses pro-duced directionally similar estimates.Conclusion:Insomnia is a risk factor of type 2 diabetes mellitus,which has positively effects on type 2 diabetes mellitus.Our study provides further rationale for indivi-duals at risk for diabetes to keep healthy lifestyle.

Objective:To explore the impact of digital technology in constructing a three-dimensional (3D) symmetry reference plane (SRP) for esthetic restoration of anterior teeth and to evaluate its clinical applicability.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted from February to May 2024, involving 20 patients [11 males and 9 females, aged (36.8±11.4) years] who underwent anterior esthetic restorations at the Department of Stomatology, People′s Hospital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. Symmetrical reference planes of patients′ 3D facial models were constructed using three different algorithms: weighted Procrustes analysis (WPA), Procrustes analysis (PA) based on the ontology-mirror correlation method, and iterative closest point (ICP). The SRP defined by an associate chief physician served as the control (true-value group). The angular errors between each algorithm group and the true-value group were compared. The optimal algorithm was selected and combined with a three-dimensional digital smile design (DSD) to create virtual patients, followed by designing anterior restorations. The visual analogue scale (VAS) was used by patients to score the aesthetic restoration results of the conventional design (control group) and the algorithm-based design (algorithm group).Results:The angular errors of the WPA, PA, and ICP groups were 1.43°±0.66°, 1.82°±0.88°, and 4.74°±2.03° respectively, with statistically significant differences among the groups ( F=41.10, P<0.001). Pairwise comparisons showed that the WPA group had significantly smaller angular errors compared to the PA and ICP groups ( P<0.05). The VAS scores for aesthetic restoration were significantly higher in the algorithm group (8.09±0.74) compared to the control group (6.30±1.38) ( t=-5.49, P<0.001). Conclusions:The SRP constructed using the WPA algorithm demonstrated minimal angular error when compared to the expert-defined SRP and is considered the optimal choice in clinical practice, yielding high patient satisfaction.

BACKGROUND: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and cellular-mesenchymal to epithelial transition factor (c-Met) are widely expressed on cancer cells. There is a synergistic effect of EGFR and HGF/c-Met pathways on proliferation, downstream activation of signal transduction and an additive effect. Studies show that combination of both signaling pathways could potentially be targeted in a synergistic fashion. Amivantamab, a bispecific monoclonal antibody targeting EGFR and c-Met, yielded robust and durable responses in a variety of clinicals trials. However, few researches have reported its efficacy in Chinese non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. This study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness and tolerance of Amivantamab in NSCLC patients with EGFR/MET gene abnormalities at Peking University Cancer Hospital. METHODS: The study enrolled NSCLC patients who received Amivantamab in our hospital between August 2020 and December 2021, and analyzed the response, survival, and treatment-related adverse events. RESULTS: Fifteen patients were enrolled in this research, and six of them received Amivantamab treatment and the other nine patients received Amivantamab plus Lazertinib treatment. The rates of partial response (PR), stable disease (SD), and progressive disease (PD) were 46.7% (7/15), 46.7% (7/15) and 6.7% (1/15), respectively. The overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) were 28.6% (2/7) and 100.0% (7/7) in seven patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion, respectively. The ORR and DCR were 40.0% (2/5) and 100.0% (5/5) in five post-osimertinib EGFR-mutant patients, respectively. After a median follow-up of 8.7 months, the median progression-free survival and overall survival were not reached. The most common treatment-related adverse events were rash (86.7%), paronychia (80.0%), and infusion-related reactions (60.0%), and most of them were graded as 1 to 2. Grade 3 to 4 adverse events included rash (33.3%), alanine aminotransferase elevation (13.3%), gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase elevation (13.3%), peripheral edema (6.7%), thromboembolism (6.7%), interstitial lung disease (6.7%), and thrombocytopenia (6.7%). CONCLUSIONS Amivantamab was effective in Chinese NSCLC patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion and post-Osimertinib EGFR-mutant patients, similar to the results of clinical trials conducted in western countries. Amivantamab was well tolerated and emphases should be put on adverse events such as rash, paronychia, and infusion-related reactions.

CONCLUSIONS Pretreatment of nicorandil can reduce the incidence of contrast-induced nephropathy in patients underwent CAG or CSI ，and reduce the damage of renal function after application of contrast.

Objective:To study the efficacy and safety of EndoClot polysaccharide hemostatic system (EndoClot PHS) for heparinized arterial hemorrhage of upper digestive tract (Forrest Ⅰa) in animal model.Methods:Twelve experimental pigs were randomly divided into the test group ( n=6) and the control group ( n=6) by simple random grouping method. Gastric arterial hemorrhage models were established. Endoclot PHS and Hemospray were used to spray on the wound to stop bleeding in the test group and the control group respectively. The time of effective hemostasis, the amount of hemostatic particles used, and the blockage of the powder feeding tube and its replacement were compared between the two groups. The survival and complications of experimental pigs were observed after the operation. In 10 days after the operation, the experimental pigs were euthanized for pathological dissection. Results:Spurting or pulsatile bleeding was achieved in all experimental pigs. There were significant differences in the time of effective hemostasis (8.75±0.84 min VS 9.83±0.62 min, t=-2.53, P=0.030) and the amount of hemostatic particles used to achieve effective hemostasis (6.71±0.39 g VS 14.10±1.62 g, t=-10.86, P<0.001) between the test group and the control group. There was no significant difference in the occurence of clogging or the replacement of powder feeding pipes between the two groups (0.64±0.02 times VS 0.67±0.04 times, t=-1.64, P=0.131). In addition, the gas source of the test group was stable, and the visual field under the endoscope was clear. Neither the test group nor the control group had gastric lesions, perforation, or embolism. The blood glucose, blood routine, and liver and kidney functions were normal, and no thrombosis or embolism of the main organs occurred in either group. Conclusion:EndoClot PHS is safe and effective for heparinized upper gastrointestinal arterial hemorrhage (Forrest Ⅰa) in animal models.

Background and Objectives: Venous thromboembolism (VTE), consisting of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), is highly prevalent in in-hospital HF patients and contributes to worse prognoses. However, the risk of VTE in out-patients with HF in long-term period is controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the associations between HF and the risk of VTE in a long-term follow-up duration. Methods: We searched for studies investigating the risk of VTE, PE, and DVT in patients with HF before April 15, 2020, in PubMed, MEDLINE, and Embase databases. Cohort studies and post hoc analysis of RCTs were eligible for inclusion if they reported relative risk of VTE, DVT or PE in patients with HF in more than 3-month follow-up period. Results: We identified 31 studies that enrolled over 530,641 HF patients. Overall, patients with HF were associated with an increased risk of VTE (risk ratio [RR]=1.57, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.34–1.84) and PE (RR=2.00, 95% CI=1.38–2.89). However, the risk of DVT was not significantly increased in HF patients (RR=1.33, 95% CI=0.67–2.63). Subgroup analysis showed that patients with chronic HF (RR=1.54, 95% CI=1.32–1.80) had a higher risk of VTE than those with acute HF (RR=0.95, 95% CI=0.68–1.32). Conclusions In conclusion, HF was an independent risk for VTE and PE but not DVT in a longterm follow-up period. Patients with chronic HF were prone to suffer from VTE than acute HF.
