RESUMO
Robotic-assisted bronchoscopy (RAB) is a newly developed bronchoscopic technique for the diagnosis of peripheral pulmonary lesions (PPLs). The objective of this meta-analysis was to analyze the diagnostic yield and safety of RAB in patients with PPLs. Five databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CENTRAL, and ClinicalTrials.gov) were searched from inception to April 2023. Two independent investigators screened retrieved articles, extracted data, and assessed the study quality. The pooled diagnostic yield and complication rate were estimated. Subgroup analysis was used to explore potential sources of heterogeneity. Publication bias was assessed using funnel plots and the Egger test. Sensitivity analysis was also conducted to assess the robustness of the synthesized results. A total of 725 lesions from 10 studies were included in this meta-analysis. No publication bias was found. Overall, RAB had a pooled diagnostic yield of 80.4% (95% CI: 75.7%-85.1%). Lesion size of >30 mm, presence of a bronchus sign, and a concentric radial endobronchial ultrasound view were associated with a statistically significantly higher diagnostic yield. Heterogeneity exploration showed that studies using cryoprobes reported better yields than those without cryoprobes (90.0%, 95% CI: 83.2%-94.7% vs. 79.0%, 95% CI: 75.8%-82.2%, p < 0.01). The pooled complication rate was 3.0% (95% CI: 1.6%-4.4%). In conclusion, RAB is an effective and safe technique for PPLs diagnosis. Further high-quality prospective studies still need to be conducted.

Resveratrol (Res) is a plant extract with strong anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and anti-aging biological activities. However, Res is limited by its disadvantages, such as poor solubility, rapid metabolism and low bioavailability. In this study, the Resveratrol-loaded TEMPO-oxidized cellulose aerogel (RLTA) drug delivery system was prepared by the method of "dissolution-freeze-drying" and characterized by a series of analysis. Then the blood biochemical indexes and HE staining were measured and analyzed in animal experiments. The in vivo results showed that RLTA can decrease the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 inflammatory factors in the synovial fluid. Furthermore, the molecular mechanism was investigated through the analysis of silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 (Sirt1) protein expression, which suggested that RLTA could upregulate the expression of Sirt1 and mediate the P38 signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting the expression of COX-2 and MMP13 which can suppress the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α inflammatory factor. These results reveal that cellulose aerogel is a promising candidate for drug delivery and RLTA has great potential application for the treatment of sports osteoarthritis.
RESUMO
Resveratrol (RSV) is a natural flavonoid polyphenol compound extracted from the plants which shows various biological activities. However, the clinical application of RSV is limited by its poor aqueous solubility, rapid metabolism and poor bioavailability. In this study, resveratrol-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles (RSV- SLNs) was design as a nano-antioxidant against the physical fatigue. The resultant RSV-SLNs were characterized by photon correlation spectroscopy (PCS), transmission electron micrographs (TEM), zeta potential, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Raman spectroscopy pattern. Furthermore, the in vivo anti-fatigue effect assays showed that RSV-SLNs prolonged the mice exhausted time and running distance. The biochemical parameters of blood related to fatigue suggested that RSV-SLNs have potential applications to improve the antioxidant defense of the mice after extensive exercise and confer anti-fatigue capability. Furthermore, the molecular mechanisms of antioxidant by RSV-SLNs supplementation was investigated through the analysis of silent information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) protein expression, which demonstrated that it could downregulate the expression of SIRT1 and increase autophagy markers, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3-II (LC3-II) and sequestosome-1 (SQSTM1/p62). These results reveal that the RSV-SLNs may have great potential used as a novel anti-fatigue sports nutritional supplement.
