RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is strongly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Lifestyle intervention remains a preferred treatment modality for NAFLD. The glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have been developed as new glucose-lowering drugs, which can improve fatty liver via an insulin-independent glucose-lowering effect. However, studies exploring the efficacy of GLP-1 receptor agonists combined with SGLT-2 inhibitors in patients with NAFLD and T2DM are scanty. Thus, the present randomised controlled trial aims at comparing the efficacy and safety of semaglutide plus empagliflozin with each treatment alone in patients with NAFLD and T2DM. METHODS: This 52-week double-blinded, randomised, parallel-group, active-controlled trial evaluates the effects of semaglutide, empagliflozin and semaglutide + empagliflozin in 105 eligible overweight/obese subjects with NAFLD and T2DM. The primary outcome will be a change from baseline to week 52 in the controlled attenuation parameter, free fatty acid and glucagon. Secondary endpoints include changes in liver stiffness measurement, liver enzymes, blood glucose, lipid levels, renal function, electrolyte balances, minerals and bone metabolism, cytokines, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, ferritin, anthropometric indicators, nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis score, fibrosis 4 score and homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance. In addition, intention-to-treat, interim analysis and safety analysis will be performed. DISCUSSION: This double-blinded, randomised, clinical trial involves a multi-disciplinary approach and aims to explore the synergistic effects of the combination of semaglutide and empagliflozin. The results can provide important insights into mechanisms of GLP-1 receptor agonists and/or SGLT-2 inhibitors in patients with NAFLD and T2DM. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This study has been registered with Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2300070674).

Background Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is a major cause of heart failure morbidity. The complex mechanism of intermolecular interactions underlying the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy has led to a lack of development and application of therapeutic methods. Methods and Results Our study provides the first evidence that TRAF4, a member of the tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor (TRAF) family, acts as a promoter of cardiac hypertrophy. Here, Western blotting assays demonstrated that TRAF4 is upregulated in cardiac hypertrophy. Additionally, TRAF4 deletion inhibits the development of cardiac hypertrophy in a mouse model after transverse aortic constriction surgery, whereas its overexpression promotes phenylephrine stimulation-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes. Mechanistically, RNA-seq analysis revealed that TRAF4 promoted the activation of the protein kinase B pathway during cardiac hypertrophy. Moreover, we found that inhibition of protein kinase B phosphorylation rescued the aggravated cardiomyocyte hypertrophic phenotypes caused by TRAF4 overexpression in phenylephrine-treated neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, suggesting that TRAF4 may regulate cardiac hypertrophy in a protein kinase B-dependent manner. Conclusions Our results revealed the regulatory function of TRAF4 in cardiac hypertrophy, which may provide new insights into developing therapeutic and preventive targets for this disease.

Background and aims: Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) was proposed to substitute NAFLD in 2020. This new term highlights the systematic metabolic disturbances that accompany fatty liver. We evaluated the correlations between MAFLD and subclinical carotid atherosclerosis (SCA) based on a nationwide health examination population in China. Methods: We performed a nationwide cross-sectional population and a Beijing retrospective cohort from 2009 to 2017. SCA was defined as elevated carotid intima-media thickness. The multivariable logistic and Cox models were used to analyze the association between MAFLD and SCA. Results: 153,482 participants were included in the cross-sectional study. MAFLD was significantly associated with SCA in fully adjusted models, with an odds ratio of 1.66; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.62-1.70. This association was consistent in the cohort, with a hazard ratio (HR) of 1.31. The association between baseline MAFLD and incident SCA increased with hepatic steatosis severity. Subgroup analysis showed an interaction between age and MAFLD, with a higher risk in younger groups (HR:1.67, 95% CI: 1.17-2.40). Conclusion: In this large cross-section and cohort study, MAFLD was significantly associated with the presence and development of SCA. Further, the risk was higher among MAFLD individuals with high hepatic steatosis index and young adults.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic basis for a Chinese pedigree affected with Oral-facial-digital syndrome type I (OFD1). METHODS: A pedigree with OFD1 who presented at Hebei General Hospital on March 17, 2021 was selected as the subject. Clinical data of the child was collected. Trio-whole exome sequencing (trio-WES) was carried out for the proband and members of her pedigree, and candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing. RESULTS: The proband has featured hypotelorism, broad nasal root, flat nasal tip, lobulated tongue, tongue neoplasia, camptodactyly of left fifth finger, syndactyly of right fourth and fifth fingers, and delayed intellectual and language development. Trio-WES revealed that the proband and her daughter, sister and mother have harbored a heterozygous c.224A>G (p.Asn75Ser) variant of the OFD1 gene. The same variant was not found among healthy members from her pedigree. CONCLUSION: The c.224A>G (p.Asn75Ser) variant probably underlay the OFD1 in this pedigree. Above discovery has enriched the spectrum of OFD1 gene variants.

Giant placental chorioangiomas associated with fetal hyperdynamic circulation complications are rare to see. Here, we summarized a case of giant placental chorioangioma associated with fetal anemia and heart failure treated by radiofrequency ablation (RFA) combined with cordocentesis and intrauterine transfusion. The sonographic appearance of the placental chorioangioma was atypical which was isoechoic with unclear boundary. RFA was performed successfully at 27 weeks of gestation, when the chorioangioma has increased to 17.0 × 10.6 × 12.3 cm3 . Unfortunately, intrauterine fetal demise was found on the first day after operation. After induction of labor, it was pathologically confirmed as placental chorioangioma.

Metabolic cardiomyopathy is an emerging cause of heart failure in patients with obesity, insulin resistance, and diabetes. It is characterized by impaired myocardial metabolic flexibility, intramyocardial triglyceride accumulation, and lipotoxic damage in association with structural and functional alterations of the heart, unrelated to hypertension, coronary artery disease, and other cardiovascular diseases. Oxidative stress plays an important role in the development and progression of metabolic cardiomyopathy. Mitochondria are the most significant sources of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cardiomyocytes. Disturbances in myocardial substrate metabolism induce mitochondrial adaptation and dysfunction, manifested as a mismatch between mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and the electron transport chain (ETC) activity, which facilitates ROS production within the ETC components. In addition, non-ETC sources of mitochondrial ROS, such as ß-oxidation of fatty acids, may also produce a considerable quantity of ROS in metabolic cardiomyopathy. Augmented ROS production in cardiomyocytes can induce a variety of effects, including the programming of myocardial energy substrate metabolism, modulation of metabolic inflammation, redox modification of ion channels and transporters, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis, ultimately leading to the structural and functional alterations of the heart. Based on the above mechanistic views, the present review summarizes the current understanding of the mechanisms underlying metabolic cardiomyopathy, focusing on the role of oxidative stress.

Ovarian endometriosis cyst (OEC) is caused by the growth of ectopic endometrium into the ovarian cortex, leading to disrupted ovarian cortical structures and infertility. Large OECs are usually surgically removed, and assisted reproductive technology (ART) is required for future pregnancy. The oocyte reserve and development of patients with small non-surgical OECs are unknown. In this study, we compared mitochondrial abnormality, ATPase and IF1 mRNA expression levels, and OXPHO complex proteins between OEC vs control mural granulosa cells (mGCs).OEC mGCs show fewer mitochondria per cell, a higher proportion of aberrant morphology, lower ATPase mRNA levels, higher IF1 mRNA levels, and impaired expression of 3 of the 5 critical proteins involved in the OXPHOS complex, compared with control mGCs. Cell-free mitochondrial DNA (cfmtDNA) levels are higher in the follicular fluid of patients with OEC and were inversely associated with the expression of mtDNA in mGCs and cumulus granulosa cells (cGCs).Taken together, this study indicates that small non-surgical OECs lead to poor quality of oocytes and subsequent embryos during ART compared with control, which was accompanied by mGC mitochondrial dysfunction. mGC and cGC mtDNA and FF cfmtDNA might serve as efficient biomarkers for the non-invasive prediction of pregnancy outcomes in patients with OEC undergoing ART.

BACKGROUND: Although Chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) is a powerful diagnostic technology for detecting chromosomal copy number variants (CNVs), it detects numerous variants of unknown significance (VUSs), which poses a great challenge for genetic counselling. Terminal deletion of the long arm of chromosome 4 is a rare genetic aberration. Few cases of interstitial deletion sharing the common deleted segment have been reported. CASE PRESENTATION: A male foetus with a 7.22-Mb deletion at chromosome 4q32.2q32.3 was found in the proband. The paternal genotype was normal. His asymptomatic mother with a normal phenotype and intelligence was found to carry the same deletion at the long arm of chromosome 4. The clinical significance of arr[GRCh37] 4q32.2q32.3(162858958_170081268)×1 remains uncertain. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report on a VUS of 4q32 deletion and the second report of a heterochromatic CNV involving part of the long arm of chromosome 4 in a phenotypically normal mother and child. The identification of this case contributes to additional understanding of deletion at 4q32.2q32.3. This report may provide a reference for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counselling in patients who have genotypes of similar cytogenetic abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS: The novel 7.22-Mb deletion at chromosome 4q32.2q32.3 (162858958-170081268) is a VUS. The foetus inherited this VUS from a phenotypically normal mother.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To explore the correlation between fetal nuchal fold (NF) thickening and fetal chromosomal abnormality. METHODS: In total 919 pregnant women undergoing ultrasound examination were selected for interventional prenatal diagnosis in order to detect fetal chromosomal abnormality. RESULTS: The detection rate of chromosomal abnormality has significantly increased with NF thickness, advanced maternal age, presence of other ultrasound abnormalities (P<0.05). Trisomy 21 was the most common abnormality, and there was a prepondance for male fetuses. CONCLUSION: Increased NF thickness is strongly associated with the risk of fetal chromosomal abnormalities, advanced maternal age and presence of additional ultrasound abnormalities.

Quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR) may be used as a mid-pregnancy test to confirm the diagnosis of common fetal aneuploidies, but its use is controversial. The present study aimed to determine the value of QF-PCR for diagnostic confirmation of karyotyping and the impact of parental origin and meiosis stage on the detected aneuploidy. The present prospective cohort study included pregnant women (age, 21-45 years; gestational age, 17-25 weeks) who consulted between May 2015 and December 2016. Women were screened and only consecutive high-risk individuals were included (n=428). QF-PCR analysis of amniocytes was performed. Karyotype analysis was considered the gold standard. Parental karyotyping was performed if the embryo exhibited any aneuploidy. GeneMapper 3.2 was used for data analysis. There were no false-negative or false-positive QF-PCR results, with 100% concordance with the karyotype. The aneuploidy distribution (n=105) was 68.6% for trisomy 21, 19.0% for trisomy 18, 7.6% for sex chromosome aneuploidy, 3.8% for trisomy 13 and 1.0% for 48,XXX,+18. Regarding trisomy 21, most cases (86.1%) were of maternal origin, 8.3% paternal and 6.5% undefined. Trisomy 18 was 88.2% maternal and 11.8% paternal. Maternal meiosis stage errors in trisomy 21 mainly occurred in meiosis I, while the origin of trisomy 18 exhibited similar proportions between meiosis I and II. The combination of non-invasive pre-natal testing and QF-PCR may become a rapid and effective method for fetal aneuploidy detection. QF-PCR may provide more genetic information for clinical diagnosis and treatment than karyotyping alone.
RESUMO
A water-soluble fullerene-supported PdCl2 nanocatalyst [C60-TEGS/PdCl2] was prepared by coordination of water-soluble fullerene nanoparticles with palladium chloride. In pure water, the catalytic activity of nanocatalyst [C60-TEGS/PdCl2] for Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction was investigated under different reaction conditions. The results showed that biphenyl compounds could be synthesized in high yields at room temperature using 0.01 mol% of [C60-TEGS/PdCl2] as the catalyst and K2CO3 as the base with the reaction time of 4 h. The catalyst was recycled five times, and the yield clearly did not decrease.
RESUMO
To explore detection and adequacy evaluation of erythrocyte glutathione S transferase (GST) on levels of circulating toxins in hemodialysis patients in Qinhuangdao region in China, this study divided 84 cases of long-term, end-stage hemodialysis patients into 2 groups: one group of 33 cases of adequate hemodialysis (spKt/V ≥ 1.3) and another group of 51 cases of inadequate hemodialysis (spKt/V < 1.3), according to the urea index value of the unit chamber model (spKt/V). Another 50 cases of subjects found healthy by a physical examination were taken as the control group, and the differences in the related clinical and biochemical indexes of the 3 groups were compared and analyzed. The levels of GST, creatinine, high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), transferrin saturation (TSAT), parathyroid hormone (PTH), interleukin-2,6,8 (IL-2,6,8) and tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) in the hemodialysis group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05), and GST, IL-2, 6, 8, and TNF-a levels in the inadequate hemodialysis group were significantly higher than in the adequate hemodialysis group (P < 0.05). Pearson's relevant analysis showed that the levels of GST and spKt/V, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-a have a positive correlation (P < 0.05), and they have no correlation with levels of creatinine, hs-CRP, TSAT, and PHT (P > 0.05). There were 23 patients with levels of spKt/V ≥ 1.3 after adjusting the dialysis solution for 51 cases of inadequate hemodialysis patients, and the GST level after the adjustment was significantly lower than that before the adjustment, but still higher than that in the adequate dialysis group. This concludes that the maintenance of hemodialysis in patients has certain relevance on spKt/V and associated inflammatory factors. Through the study, it can be determined that GST can effectively respond to adequate hemodialysis, which has a guiding significance on adjusting the blood dialysis solution in clinical practice.

It concludes that the maintenance of hemodialysis patients' level has certain relevance on spKt/V and associated inflammatory factors. Through the determination, GST can effectively response the adequate hemodialysis, which has a guiding significance on adjusting blood dialysis solution in clinic.

A diblock copolymer of monomethoxy-poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(L-lactide) (MePEG-PLLA)/brefeldin A (BFA) conjugate was synthesized by the reaction of carboxyl-terminated copolymer MePEG-PLLA with BFA in the presence of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and dimethylaminopyridine. The conjugation efficiency was found to be 95%. Its structure was confirmed by (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance and gel permeation chromatography. The MePEG-PLLA/BFA conjugate could self-assemble into micelles in aqueous solutions with a low critical micelle concentration of 1.8 × 10(-3 )g/L. Dynamic light scattering and transmission electron microscopy analyses of the MePEG-PLLA/BFA micelles revealed their spherical structure with an average diameter of 120 nm. The release profiles of BFA in PBS were measured by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), demonstrating that the controlled release of BFA can be gained for long time. The in vitro antitumor activity of the conjugate micelles against human liver carcinoma HepG2 cells was evaluated by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazolyl-2)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide method, and the results showed that BFA can be released from the conjugate micelles without losing cytotoxicity.

In this work, PEG-PLLA electrospun fibers were developed as a new controlled release system for macrolide antibiotic drug brefeldin A (BFA). SEM and XRD analyses of the BFA-loaded PEG-PLLA fibers revealed that the average diameter of fibers was below 950 nm with smooth surfaces, and the drug was well incorporated into the fibers in amorphous form. The release profiles of BFA in PBS were measured by HPLC, demonstrating that the controlled release of BFA could be gained for long time. The in vitro antitumor activity against human liver carcinoma HepG2 cells of the fibers containing 3%, 6%, 9%, 12% and 15% BFA were examined by MTT method, and the results showed that cell growth inhibition rates at 72 h were 64%, 77%, 80%, 81% and 85%, respectively. These results strongly suggested that the BFA/PEG-PLLA fibers had an effect of controlled release of BFA and were suitable for postoperative chemotherapy of cancers.

Photoluminescent fullerene nanoparticles/nanofibers have potential applications in bioimaging. A novel fluorescent nanofibrous material, consisting of fullerene nanoparticles and poly(L-lactide) (PLLA), was fabricated via a simple electrospinning method, and the composite nanofibers were characterized by various techniques such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The nanofibers were uniform, and their surfaces were reasonably smooth, with the average diameters of fibers ranging from 300 to 600 nm. The fullerene nanoparticles were encapsulated within the composite nanofibers, forming a core-shell structure. The nanofiber scaffolds showed excellent hydrophilic surface due to the addition of water-soluble fullerene nanoparticles. The composite nanofibers used as substrates for bioimaging in vitro were evaluated with human liver carcinoma HepG2 cells, the fullerene nanoparticles signal almost displayed in every cell, implying the potential of fluorescent fullerene nanoparticles/PLLA nanofibers to be used as scaffolds for bioimaging application.

RESUMO
The flame ionization detection relative molar response factors (fM) are determined by experiments for 23 monosubstituted alkanes RX (X=Cl, OH, SH, and NH2). A new molecular descriptor, modified inner molecular polarizability index (IMPIm), is developed. Using the IMPIm, the number of hydrogen atoms (NH) on the group X and the group electronegative Xp as variables, the obtained fM values as functions, a general expression to predict molar response factor values, is established. The credibility of the expression is confirmed by both of the leave-one-out method and the detection of model mixture.
