Hypertension is an important risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease-associated death. Hypertension and its complications are the main problems that have an impact on public health at present. A portion of adults with hypertension fail to meet the recommended blood pressure (BP) treatment goals, despite strict clinical management. Those individuals requiring at least three types of antihypertensive drugs to achieve their BP goal may be classified as patients with resistant hypertension (RH). Bioelectric technology is an emerging method that functions with the help of the human body's own bioelectric system. It is widely used in auxiliary examination, pain relief and organ function rehabilitation. Bioelectrical technology, as an effective treatment for RH, has developed rapidly in recent years and mainly includes renal sympathetic denervation, carotid baroreflex activation therapy, Traditional Chinese Medicine electroacupuncture and transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). The present review describes the pathogenesis of hypertension and provides an understanding of bioelectrical technology as a treatment. In particular, the development of the application of TENS in RH is introduced. The aim is to provide a basis for the clinical treatment of RH and a new idea for further clinical trials in this field.

高血压是心脑血管疾病相关死亡的重要危险因素。高血压及其并发症是目前影响公众健康的主要问题。尽管有严格的临床管理,但仍有一部分成人高血压患者未能达到推荐的血压(BP)治疗目标。需要至少三种降压药物才能达到血压目标的个体可被归类为顽固性高血压(RH)患者。生物电技术是一种借助人体自身生物电系统发挥作用的新兴方法。广泛应用于辅助检查、止痛和器官功能康复。生物电技术作为RH的有效治疗手段,近年来发展迅速,主要包括肾交感神经去支配、颈动脉barreflex激活疗法、中医电针和经皮神经电刺激(TENS)等。本文综述了高血压的发病机制,并提供了生物电技术作为一种治疗方法的理解。重点介绍了TENS在RH中的应用进展。旨在为RH的临床治疗提供依据,并为该领域进一步的临床试验提供新的思路。

The electrocardiogram (ECG) changes in patients with intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH) have remained largely elusive and no case reports are currently available in the scientific literature. The medical management of a patient with ST-segment elevation associated with IPH was described in the present study. The case report describes a 78-year-old male patient who presented with ST-segment elevation in V1, V2, V3 and V4 on ECG. Initially, the case was managed therapeutically as an acute myocardial infarction. Later, the patient was transferred to a higher-level hospital, where a new ECG confirmed ST-segment elevation. Simple skull tomography was also performed, which revealed a spontaneous right basal ganglion in the context of an acute cerebrovascular accident of hypertensive origin. A transthoracic ECG was ordered, which revealed an ejection fraction of 65% with type I diastolic dysfunction due to relaxation disorders and without any signs of ischemia, intracavitary masses or thrombi. In addition to the presence of nonspecific ECG findings, clinicians should consider immediate brain computed tomography to confirm intracranial hemorrhage.

肝实质内出血(IPH)患者的心电图(ECG)变化在很大程度上仍然是难以捉摸的,目前在科学文献中没有病例报告。本研究描述了一例st段抬高合并IPH患者的医学处理。病例报告描述了一位78岁男性患者,其心电图表现为V1、V2、V3和V4 st段抬高。最初,该病例作为急性心肌梗死进行治疗。后来,患者被转移到更高级别的医院,在那里新的心电图证实st段抬高。简单的颅骨断层扫描也显示自发性的右侧基底神经节在高血压起源的急性脑血管意外的背景下。经胸心电图显示射血分数为65%,伴有舒张障碍引起的I型舒张功能障碍,无缺血、腔内肿块或血栓迹象。除了存在非特异性心电图表现外,临床医生应考虑立即进行脑计算机断层扫描以确认颅内出血。

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common degenerative joint diseases leading to disability in the end stage. Although intra-articular triamcinolone acetonide (TA) is one of the OA treatments that have been widely used, the side effects of such corticosteroids are still controversial. Intra-articular hyaluronic acid (HA) injection is another therapeutic option for patients with OA who do not want to use corticosteroids because of their side effects. However, the difference between the histological features associated with TA and HA in the treatment of OA remains unclear. Thus, the present study aimed to compare the histological effects of TA and HA on the cartilage of patients with knee OA. In the current study, 31 patients diagnosed with grade 3-4 knee OA on the Kellgren-Lawrence radiographic grading scale were separated into three groups: TA (n=12); HA (n=7) and untreated group (n=12). Histological examination of the whole articular cartilages of the patients was performed with hematoxylin and eosin and Alcian staining, as well as using a TUNEL assay. Clinical data such as cartilage thickness, structural and component deterioration, proteoglycan levels, apoptosis and empty lacunae were compared between the three groups. The results showed a high level of deterioration in both TA and HA groups but not in the untreated group, although the thickness of cartilage in the HA group was lower compared with that in the TA and untreated groups. The proteoglycan levels in the TA group were lower compared with those in the HA group. Moreover, the number of empty lacunae in the HA group was higher compared with that in the TA group, while no difference in apoptosis was found between TA and HA groups. A significant difference was not found in the histological staining between TA and HA groups. On the other hand, a significant difference was found in cartilage deterioration between the medial and lateral sides in these groups. TA and HA groups showed comparable histological results. TA injection is cheaper and easier but has more adverse effects for patients with knee OA than HA injection. Therefore, orthopaedists should select TA or HA based on the economic and specific needs of patients.

骨关节炎(OA)是最常见的退行性关节疾病之一,最终导致残疾。虽然关节内曲安奈德(triamcinolone acetonide, TA)是目前广泛应用的OA治疗方法之一,但其副作用仍存在争议。关节内透明质酸(HA)注射是OA患者因其副作用而不想使用皮质类固醇的另一种治疗选择。然而,与TA和HA相关的组织学特征在OA治疗中的差异尚不清楚。因此,本研究旨在比较TA和HA对膝关节OA患者软骨的组织学影响。在本研究中,31例经Kellgren-Lawrence放射分级表诊断为3-4级膝关节炎的患者分为三组:TA组(n=12);HA组(n=7)和未治疗组(n=12)。采用苏木精、伊红和阿利新染色对患者的整个关节软骨进行组织学检查,并使用TUNEL试验。比较三组患者软骨厚度、结构及成分恶化、蛋白聚糖水平、细胞凋亡及空腔隙等临床数据。结果显示,虽然HA组软骨厚度较TA组和未治疗组低,但TA组和HA组均有较高程度的恶化,而未治疗组则没有。与HA组相比,TA组的蛋白多糖水平较低。此外,HA组空腔隙数量高于TA组,而TA组与HA组间细胞凋亡数量无差异。TA组与HA组组织学染色无明显差异。另一方面,在这些组中,内侧和外侧的软骨退化有显著差异。TA组和HA组的组织学结果相当。对于膝关节OA患者,TA注射比HA注射更便宜、更容易,但有更多的不良反应。因此,骨科医生应根据患者的经济情况和具体需要选择TA或HA。

Numerous physiological processes occur following bone fracture, including inflammatory cell recruitment, vascularization, and callus formation and remodeling. In particular circumstances, such as critical bone defects or osteonecrosis, the regenerative microenvironment is compromised, rendering endogenous stem/progenitor cells incapable of fully manifesting their reparative potential. Consequently, external interventions, such as grafting or augmentation, are frequently necessary. In situ bone tissue engineering (iBTE) employs cell-free scaffolds that possess microenvironmental cues, which, upon implantation, redirect the behavior of endogenous stem/progenitor cells towards a pro-regenerative inflammatory response and reestablish angiogenesis-osteogenesis coupling. This process ultimately results in vascularized bone regeneration (VBR). In this context, a comprehensive review of the current techniques and modalities in VBR-targeted iBTE technology is provided.

骨折后发生了许多生理过程,包括炎症细胞募集、血管形成、骨痂形成和重塑。在特殊情况下,如严重骨缺损或骨坏死,再生微环境受损,使内源性干细胞/祖细胞无法充分发挥其修复潜力。因此,外部干预,如移植或增强,往往是必要的。原位骨组织工程(iBTE)采用具有微环境线索的无细胞支架,在植入后,将内源性干细胞/祖细胞的行为转向促再生炎症反应,并重建血管生成-成骨耦合。这个过程最终导致血管化骨再生(VBR)。在此背景下,对vbr靶向iBTE技术的当前技术和模式进行了全面审查。

Gut and reproductive tract microbiota: Insights into the pathogenesis of endometriosis (Review). 肠道和生殖道微生物群:子宫内膜异位症发病机制的启示(综述)。

Endometriosis is characterized by the presence of endometrial-like tissue outside the uterus and is associated with an inflammatory immune response. The gut and reproductive tract microbiota constitute a protective barrier against infection by pathogens and regulate inflammatory and immune functions. This review summarizes microbiota imbalance (i.e., dysbiosis) in endometriosis and discusses how dysbiosis influences disease development. The literature was searched for studies published from inception to March 2022 in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases using a combination of specific terms. An altered gut and reproductive tract microbiome has been reported in numerous conditions, such as inflammatory bowel disease, allergies, autoimmunity, cancer and reproductive disorders (e.g., endometriosis). Furthermore, microbial dysbiosis is a hallmark of endometriosis and is characterized by a decrease in beneficial probiotics and an increase in pathogenic microbes, which leads to a series of estrobolomic and metabolomic changes. Gut or reproductive tract microbiome dysbiosis was reported in mice, nonhuman primates, and females with endometriosis. Animal models of endometriosis demonstrated the effects of the gut microbiome on lesion growth and vice versa. The immune system mediated by the microbiota-gut-reproductive tract axis triggers an inflammatory response that damages reproductive tract tissue, which possibly leads to endometriosis. However, whether the alteration of eubiosis (a balanced microbiota) to dysbiosis is a cause or a result of endometriosis is unclear. In conclusion, this review provides an overview of the relationship between the gut and reproductive tract microbiome and endometriosis, focusing on the mechanisms by which dysbiosis may increase the risk of disease.

子宫内膜异位症的特征是在子宫外存在子宫内膜样组织,并与炎症免疫反应有关。肠道和生殖道微生物群构成了防止病原体感染的保护屏障,并调节炎症和免疫功能。本综述概述了子宫内膜异位症中微生物群失衡(即菌群失调)的情况,并讨论了菌群失调如何影响疾病的发展。文献采用特定术语组合在 PubMed 和 Google Scholar 数据库中检索了从开始到 2022 年 3 月发表的研究。据报道,肠道和生殖道微生物组的改变与多种疾病有关,如炎症性肠病、过敏、自身免疫、癌症和生殖系统疾病(如子宫内膜异位症)。此外,微生物菌群失调是子宫内膜异位症的特征之一,其特点是有益益生菌减少,致病微生物增加,从而导致一系列雌激素组和代谢组变化。据报道,小鼠、非人灵长类动物和雌性子宫内膜异位症患者的肠道或生殖道微生物群失调。子宫内膜异位症的动物模型表明,肠道微生物组对病变的生长有影响,反之亦然。由微生物群-肠道-生殖道轴介导的免疫系统会引发炎症反应,破坏生殖道组织,从而可能导致子宫内膜异位症。然而,"优生"(平衡的微生物群)变为 "菌群失调 "是子宫内膜异位症的原因还是结果,目前尚不清楚。总之,本综述概述了肠道和生殖道微生物群与子宫内膜异位症之间的关系,重点探讨了菌群失调可能增加患病风险的机制。

Various studies on the etiology and other aspects of granulomatous mastitis (GM) have been performed; however, a lot of controversies have arisen. The present study aimed to present the clinicopathological findings and identify the sensitivity and resistance of isolated bacteria in patients with GM. In this cross-sectional study 63 female patients with a confirmed histopathological diagnosis of GM were included. A core needle biopsy was conducted for the patients to obtain a sample for histopathological examination and bacterial culture. In total, 46 types of antibiotics were used to determine the sensitivity and resistance of each isolated bacterial species. All the medical and clinical records of the patients were acquired through the completion of a questionnaire form in person or, if necessary, through the evaluation of their medical records in the database of the relevant center. The majority of the patients were in the premenopausal or perimenopausal period. GM was unilateral in 58.7% of the patients. The most common symptom was pain, followed by fever and chills. The mean ranges of the erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein, IL-6, IL-17, C5a, white blood count, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, and prolactin tests were significantly elevated in comparison to the normal ranges. In total, nine different bacterial species were isolated from the bacterial culture of the core biopsy samples, and 50% of the isolated bacterial species were sensitive to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole. Since there is no consensus on the etiology of GM, any additional studies related to this aspect expand the current understanding of this puzzling condition.

对肉芽肿性乳腺炎(GM)的病因和其他方面进行了各种研究;然而,也出现了许多争议。本研究旨在介绍GM患者的临床病理学表现,并确定分离细菌的敏感性和耐药性。在这项横断面研究中,63名确诊为GM的女性患者被纳入。对患者进行了核心针活检,以获得用于组织病理学检查和细菌培养的样本。总共使用了46种抗生素来确定每种分离细菌的敏感性和耐药性。患者的所有医疗和临床记录都是通过亲自填写调查表或在必要时通过评估相关中心数据库中的医疗记录获得的。大多数患者处于绝经前或围绝经期。58.7%的患者为单侧GM。最常见的症状是疼痛,其次是发烧和发冷。与正常范围相比,红细胞沉降率、C反应蛋白、IL-6、IL-17、C5a、白细胞计数、中性粒细胞与淋巴细胞比率和泌乳素测试的平均范围显著升高。从核心活检样本的细菌培养物中总共分离出9种不同的细菌,50%的分离细菌对甲氧苄啶-磺胺甲恶唑敏感。由于对GM的病因没有达成共识,任何与此相关的额外研究都扩大了目前对这种令人困惑的疾病的理解。

Most patients with active pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) are difficult to be differentiated from pneumonia (PN), especially those with acid-fast bacillus smear-negative (AFB-) and interferon-γ release assay-positive (IGRA+) results. Thus, the aim of the present study was to develop a risk model of low-cost and rapid test for the diagnosis of AFB- IGRA+ TB from PN. A total of 41 laboratory variables of 204 AFB- IGRA+ TB and 156 PN participants were retrospectively analyzed. Candidate variables were identified by t-statistic test and univariate logistic model. The logistic regression analysis was used to construct the multivariate risk model and nomogram with internal and external validation. A total of 13 statistically differential variables were compared between AFB- IGRA+ TB and PN by false discovery rate (FDR) and odds ratio (OR). By integrating five variables, including age, uric acid (UA), albumin (ALB), hemoglobin (Hb) and white blood cell counts (WBC), a multivariate risk model with a concordance index (C-index) of 0.7 (95% CI: 0.61, 0.8) was constructed. The nomogram showed that UA and Hb acted as protective factors with an OR <1, while age, WBC and ALB were risk factors for TB occurrence. Internal and external validation revealed that nomogram prediction was consistent with the actual observations. Collectively, it was revealed that an integration of five biomarkers (age, UA, ALB, Hb and WBC) may be used to quickly predict TB in AFB- IGRA+ clinical samples from PN.

大多数活动性肺结核(TB)患者难以与肺炎(PN)鉴别,特别是抗酸杆菌涂片阴性(AFB-)和干扰素γ释放试验阳性(IGRA+)的患者。因此,本研究的目的是建立一种低成本、快速诊断AFB- IGRA+结核的风险模型。回顾性分析了204例AFB- IGRA+ TB和156例PN参与者的41项实验室变量。通过t统计检验和单变量logistic模型确定候选变量。采用logistic回归分析构建多变量风险模型和nomogram,并进行内外验证。通过错误发现率(FDR)和比值比(OR)比较AFB- IGRA+ TB和PN之间共13个统计学差异变量。通过整合年龄、尿酸(UA)、白蛋白(ALB)、血红蛋白(Hb)、白细胞计数(WBC) 5个变量,构建了一个一致性指数(C-index)为0.7 (95% CI: 0.61, 0.8)的多变量风险模型。图显示UA和Hb作为保护因子对来自PN的OR - IGRA阳性临床样本起作用。

Systemic chemotherapy, the standard first-line treatment option for patients with advanced oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), results in a median survival of ~1 year. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a breakthrough oncology treatment option; however, most patients with advanced OSCC develop primary and acquired resistance to programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1) monoclonal antibody, severely affecting their prognosis. Therefore, there is an urgent need to investigate the molecular mechanism underlying resistance to treatment. The present study aimed to explore the mechanism of resistance to PD-1 monoclonal antibody. Plasma samples were collected from patients with OSCC treated with immunotherapy, who achieved pathological response/partial response (CR/PR) or stable disease/progressive disease (SD/PD) after the fourth treatment cycle. TM-widely targeted metabolomics, widely targeted lipidomics, and DIA proteomics assays were performed. Differential metabolites were screened based on fold change (FC) ≥1.5 or ≤0.67 and a VIP ≥1; differential proteins were screened based on FC >1.5 or <0.67 and P<0.05. The identified metabolites were annotated and mapped using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway databases. The differential proteins were annotated to the Gene Ontology and KEGG pathway databases. A correlation network diagram was drawn using differential expressed proteins and metabolites with (Pearson correlation coefficient) r>0.80 and P<0.05. Finally, 197 and 113 differential metabolites and proteins were screened, respectively, in patients with CR/PR and SD/PD groups. The KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that all of these metabolites and proteins were enriched in cholesterol metabolism and in the NF-κB and phospholipase D signalling pathways. The present study is the first to demonstrate that PD-1 inhibitor resistance may be attributed to cholesterol metabolism or NF-κB and phospholipase D signalling pathway activation. This finding suggests that targeting these signalling pathways may be a promising novel therapeutic approach in OSCC which may improve prognosis in patients undergoing immunotherapy.

Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) is the most frequent glomerular disease with rapid development to end stage renal disease, requiring renal replacement therapy. Genome-wide studies suggest geographical variations in genetic susceptibility to IgAN and disease progression. Specific 'candidate genes' were indicated to correlate with different functions that are involved in the pathogenesis of renal conditions. MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) have a major role in mRNA degradation or translation repression, thereby regulating the expression of their target proteins. Previously, a small number of miRNAs were reported to have direct associations with IgAN. In the present study, new miRNAs linked to IgAN were identified in the Indian population. The miRNA was isolated from kidney biopsies of patients with IgAN (n=6) and healthy control tissue from patients with renal cell carcinoma (n=6). The sequencing results indicated that the miRNA percentage acquired from controls and patients with IgAN was 5.61 and 4.35%, respectively. From the results, 10 upregulated and 15 downregulated miRNAs were identified. Of the 25 differentially expressed miRNAs (DEMs), miR-181a-5p, miR-28-3p, let-7g-5p, miR-92a-3p and miR-30c-5p were not reported previously. Furthermore, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology analyses suggested that the target genes of the DEMs were mainly enriched in pathways such as cancer, ErbB signalling, proteoglycans in cancer, Hippo signalling and MAPK pathways. The newly identified miRNAs may impact the behaviour of tissues or IgA deposition by regulating signalling pathways, which forms a basis for future studies aimed at improving the diagnosis and care of patients with IgAN in the Indian community.

免疫球蛋白A肾病(IgAN)是最常见的肾小球疾病,可迅速发展为终末期肾脏疾病,需要肾脏替代治疗。全基因组研究表明,IgAN的遗传易感性和疾病进展存在地理差异。特定的“候选基因”被指出与肾脏疾病发病机制中涉及的不同功能相关。MicroRNAs (miRNAs/miRs)在mRNA降解或翻译抑制中起主要作用,从而调节其靶蛋白的表达。此前,有报道称少数mirna与IgAN有直接关联。在本研究中,在印度人群中发现了与IgAN相关的新mirna。该miRNA从IgAN患者(n=6)的肾脏活检组织和肾细胞癌患者(n=6)的健康对照组织中分离出来。测序结果显示,从对照组和IgAN患者中获得的miRNA百分比分别为5.61%和4.35%。从结果中,鉴定出10个上调和15个下调的mirna。在25个差异表达的mirna (DEMs)中,miR-181a-5p, miR-28-3p, let-7g-5p, miR-92a-3p和miR-30c-5p之前未报道。此外,京都基因与基因组百科全书和基因本体分析表明,dms的靶基因主要富集于癌症、ErbB信号通路、癌症蛋白聚糖、Hippo信号通路和MAPK信号通路等途径。新发现的mirna可能通过调节信号通路影响组织行为或IgA沉积,这为未来旨在改善印度社区IgAN患者诊断和护理的研究奠定了基础。

The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective effect of Gastrodia elata Blume (GEB) against Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) in Alzheimer's disease (AD) through network pharmacology. Firstly, the active constituents of GEB through ETCM and BATMAN-TCM databases were collected and its potential AD-related targets in Swiss Target Prediction were predicted. The potential targets related to AD were collected from the GeneCards, OMIM, CTD and DisGeNET databases, and the differential genes (DEGs) between the normal population and the AD patient population in GSE5281 chip of the Gene Expression Omnibus database were collected at the same time. The intersection of the three targets yielded 59 key targets of GEB for the treatment of AD. The drug-active ingredient-target-AD network diagram was constructed and visualized with Cytoscape software to obtain the core components. Subsequently, protein-protein interaction analysis (PPI) was performed on 59 key targets through STRING database, and Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes analyses was performed on 59 key targets. Finally, molecular docking was conducted between core components and core targets using AutoDock software, and the C. elegans AD model was used for experimental verification to explore the regulatory paralysis effect of core components on the C. elegans model, β-amyloid (Aβ) plaque deposition, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction verification of the regulatory effect of components on targets. The GEB components 4,4'-dihydroxydiphenyl methane (DM) and protocatechuic aldehyde (PA) were found to be most strongly associated with AD, and five core targets were identified in the PPI network, including GAPDH, EP300, HSP90AB1, KDM6B, and CREBBP. In addition to GAPDH, the other four targets were successfully docked with DM and PA using AutoDock software. Compared with the control group, 0.5 mM DM and 0.25 mM PA significantly delayed C. elegans paralysis (P<0.01), and inhibited the aggregation of Aβ plaques in C. elegans. Both DM and PA could upregulate the expression level of core target gene HSP90AB1 (P<0.01), and DM upregulated the expression of KDM6B (P<0.01), suggesting that DM and PA may be potential active components of GEB in the treatment of AD.

本研究旨在通过网络药理学研究天麻(Gastrodia elata Blume, GEB)对秀丽隐杆线虫(Caenorhabditis elegans, C. elegans)对阿尔茨海默病(AD)的保护作用。首先,通过ETCM和BATMAN-TCM数据库收集GEB的有效成分,并在Swiss Target Prediction中预测其潜在ad相关靶标。从GeneCards、OMIM、CTD和DisGeNET数据库中收集与AD相关的潜在靶点,同时在Gene Expression Omnibus数据库的GSE5281芯片中收集正常人群与AD患者群体之间的差异基因(DEGs)。这三个靶点的交集产生了59个GEB治疗AD的关键靶点。利用Cytoscape软件构建药物活性成分-靶点- ad网络图并进行可视化,得到核心成分。随后,通过STRING数据库对59个关键靶点进行蛋白-蛋白互作分析(protein-protein interaction analysis, PPI),并对59个关键靶点进行基因本体和京都基因与基因组百科全书分析。最后利用AutoDock软件对核心组分与核心靶点进行分子对接,并利用秀丽隐杆线虫AD模型进行实验验证,探索核心组分对秀丽隐杆线虫模型、β-淀粉样蛋白(Aβ)斑块沉积的调控瘫痪作用,定量聚合酶链反应验证组分对靶点的调控作用。发现GEB组分4,4'-二羟基二苯甲烷(DM)和原儿茶醛(PA)与AD的相关性最强,并在PPI网络中鉴定出5个核心靶点,包括GAPDH、EP300、HSP90AB1、KDM6B和CREBBP。除GAPDH外,其他4个靶标均通过AutoDock软件与DM和PA成功对接。与对照组相比,0.5 mM DM和0.25 mM PA显著延缓秀丽隐杆线虫麻痹(PC)。线虫。DM和PA均可上调核心靶基因HSP90AB1的表达水平
