RESUMO
Background: Acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD) is life-threatening and needs urgent and highly invasive surgery. So far, there is no comprehensive review of the status quo of ATAAD studies. Therefore, this study aimed to quantify and identify the global trends of ATAAD research over the past two decades through bibliometric analysis and to provide reference for clinical practice, research funding allocation, and decision-making. Methods: The original research articles and reviews related to ATAAD research were downloaded from the Web of Science Core Collection on March 19, 2023. CiteSpace (6.2.1) and VOSviewer (1.6.18) were used for bibliometric analysis of the number of publications by each country, institution, and authors and the establishment of knowledge maps. The raw data collected were examined using the Online Analysis Platform of Bibliometric to assess the collaboration of countries in the field. Results: The number of documents on ATAAD research increased continuously. A total of 1,943 publications published from 2002 to 2022 from 66 countries/regions were identified: 637 (32.78%) were conducted in China and 360 (18.53%) in the United States; 152 (cited frequency 941) were conducted by Capital Medical University and 107 (cited frequency 370) by Fujian Medical University. The Journal of Cardiac Surgery was the most frequently published journal (143 publications, cited frequency 695). The highest citation and co-cited journal was the Annals of Thoracic Surgery (cited frequency 3,888, co-cited frequency 6,224). We identiï¬ed 8,050 authors among which Lizhong Sun (61 publications, cited frequency 721) had the largest number of publications, and Nienaber Christoph A (cited frequency 1,536, co-cited frequency 392) was co-cited most often. Meanwhile, the most common keywords were acute type A aortic dissection (occurrences, 1,211), surgery (occurrences, 657), repair (occurrences, 404), and management (occurrences, 386). The earliest and latest used keywords were "axillary artery" (average publication year: 2011.23) and "inflammation" (average publication year: 2019.09), respectively. The keyword "surgical treatment" (strength 12.31) and the co-cited reference "Evangelista A, 2018, Circulation" (strength 28.55) had the highest citation bursts. The keywords "impact" and "acute kidney injury" remained high citation bursts. The co-cited references with the largest and smallest size clusters were "cerebral protection" (#0, size = 126) and "pregnancy" (#12, size = 11). The reference "Hagan PG, 2000, JAMA" (cited frequency, 350) had the highest co-citations. Conclusions: The bibliometric and visualized analysis generated objective evidence for a comprehensive understanding and evaluation of ATAAD research.
RESUMO
Objective: This study evaluated the reno-protective effects of quercetin in animal models of acute kidney injury (AKI). Methods: We conducted a systematic search of literature published before April 2023 in PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE databases. Methodological quality was assessed by SYRCLE's RoB tool. Funnel plot, Egger's test, and Begg's test were used to determine publication bias. Results: A total of 19 studies with 288 animals were included in this meta-analysis. The methodology quality scores of the included studies ranged from 4 to 7. The results indicated that quercetin reduced blood urea nitrogen (SMD = -4.78; 95% CI: 6.45, -3.12; p < 0.01; I2 = 84%) and serum creatinine (SMD: 2.73, 95% CI: 3.66, -1.80; p < 0.01; I2 = 80%) in AKI models. The result of sensitivity analysis was stable, while the results of funnel plot indicated asymmetric. In addition, we further analyzed inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress levels, and kidney injury scores, and found that quercetin treatment had antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and improved kidney injury scores in animal models of AKI. Conclusion: Quercetin exhibited a promising reno-protective effect in AKI animal models. Systematic Review Registration: PROSPERO (CRD42023433333).
RESUMO
Raman spectra of normal and cancer cell from breast cancer patients a represented. It is reported that all of the Ramanlines become weak. The intensities of Raman lines 782 and 1 084 cm(-1) of DNA phosphate group and 1 155 and 1 262 cm(-1) of deoxyribosephosphate decrease. The spectral lines 812 cm(-1) of A-type DNA and 979 and 668 cm(-1) disappear, and the 905 cm(-1) peak is shifted to lower frequency by 6 cm(-1). This means that the phosphate backbone of DNA is destroyed to a certain extent and the fissiparity of cancer cell can't be controlled effectively. In addition, the authors found a kind of Raman line 960 cm(-1) concerning calcificationand sclerosis of cancer cell. The results indicate that Raman spectra may offer the experiment basis for the cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Resonance Raman spectra of single red-cell from human blood are presented by different laser sources. It is reported that there is 1002 cm(-1) line of insensitive conformation of phenylalanine aromatic ring stretching and 1620 cm(-1) line of C-N breathing stretching band of pyrrole ring, which cause strong and sharp resonance lines when excited by 782 nm laser source. They are weaker and the intensity of other lines of high wave number is large and clear when excited by 514 nm laser source. But the intensity of lines of low wave number is strong and clear when excited by 782 nm laser source. At the same time, the authors got Raman spectra lines at different times after taking blood under the same laser source. When using 782 nm laser source, there is no difference except for 1601 cm(-1). There are a lot of weakened lines and lines shifting about 4-10 cm(-1) toward low wave number. The results indicate that Raman spectra may offer the experimental basis for studying structure, function and variability of single red-cell.
