Objective:To explore the effects of different polymers on in vitro biomimetic mineralization of small intestinal submucosa(SIS)scaffolds,and to evaluate the physicochemical properties and bio-compatibility of the SIS scaffolds.Methods:The SIS scaffolds prepared by freeze-drying method were im-mersed in simulated body fluid(SBF),mineralized liquid containing polyacrylic acid(PAA)and mine-ralized liquid containing PAA and polyaspartic acid(PASP).After two weeks in the mineralized solu-tion,the liquid was changed every other day.SBF@SIS,PAA@SIS,PAA/PASP@SIS scaffolds were ob-tained.The SIS scaffolds were used as control group to evaluate their physicochemical properties and bio-compatibility.We observed the bulk morphology of the scaffolds in each group,analyzed the microscopic morphology by environment scanning electron microscopy and determined the porosity and pore size.We also analyzed the surface elements by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX),analyzed the struc-ture of functional groups by Flourier transformed infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),detected the water ab-sorption rate by using specific gravity method,and evaluated the compression strength by universal me-chanical testing machine.The pro-cell proliferation effect of each group of scaffolds were evaluated by CCK-8 cell proliferation method.Results:Under scanning electron microscopy,the scaffolds of each group showed a three-dimensional porous structure with suitable pore size and porosity,and crystal was observed in all the mineralized scaffolds of each group,in which the crystal deposition of PAA/PASP@SIS scaffolds was more regular.At the same time,the collagen fibers could be seen to thicken.EDX analysis showed that the characteristic peaks of Ca and P were found in the three groups of mineralized scaffolds,and the highest peaks were found in the PAA/PASP@SIS scaffolds.FTIR analysis proved that all the three groups of mineralized scaffolds were able to combine hydroxyapatite with SIS.All the scaf-folds had good hydrophilicity.The compressive strength of the mineralized scaffold in the three groups was higher than that in the control group,and the best compressive strength was found in PAA/PASP@SIS scaffold.The scaffolds of all the groups could effectively adsorb proteins,and PAA/PASP@SIS group had the best adsorption capacity.In the CCK-8 cell proliferation experiment,the PAA/PASP@SIS scaffold showed the best ability to promote cell proliferation with the largest number of living cells observed.Con-clusion:Compared with other mineralized scaffolds,PAA/PASP@SIS scaffolds prepared by mineralized solution containing both PAA and PASP have better physicochemical properties and biocompatibility and have potential applications in bone tissue engineering.
RESUMO
This paper summarized Professor ZHOU Zhongying's experience in differentiating and treating hepatitis and liver cirrhosis from deficiency and excess. It is considered that the pathogenesis of hepatitis and liver cirrhosis belongs to deficiency in root and excess in branch, with depletion of liver, spleen and kidney as the root, and constraint and bind of damp-heat and stasis toxin as the branch. Moreover, mutual cause and promotion between deficiency and excess leads to the disease. For general principle of treatment, it is recommended to clear and transform pathogenic excess, supplement deficiency and rectify the healthy qi. In the early stage of hepatitis and cirrhosis, excess pathogen hyperactivity is the main manifestation, which can be treated by clearing and transforming damp-heat and stasis toxin, supplemented by regulating spleen and stomach, with modified Yinchenhao Decoction (茵陈蒿汤) and Biejiajian Pill (鳖甲煎丸). In the middle and late stages, cases with deficiency-excess complex were more common, which should be treated by clearing damp-heat and stasis toxin, regulating and supplementing liver-spleen-kidney, using medicinals with the function of clearing heat and dispelling damp, dissolving stasis and resolving toxins to treat the branch. Moreover, Liujunzi Decoction (六君子汤), Yiguan Decoction (一贯煎)plus Erzhi Pill (二至丸) and Buzhong Yiqi Decoction (补中益气汤) modifications are suggested respectively in correspondence to the different kinds of root deficiency including irregular liver and spleen, liver and kidney yin deficiency, and liver-spleen-kidney deficiency.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of dulaglutide combined with metformin in the treatment of obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM). Methods A total of 200 obese patients with T2DM who were treated in Shanghai Jiading District Anting Hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were randomly divided into liraglutide group(n=100)and dulaglutide group(n= 100). The liraglutide group was treated with liraglutide combined with metformin, and the dulaglutide group was treated with dulaglutide combined with metformin. Both groups were treated for 3 months. The body metabolic indexes [fasting blood glucose(FBG), 2 h postprandial blood glucose(2 h PBG), hemoglobin(HbA1 c), total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG)], body fat composition [body fat rate, body mass index, subcutaneous fat rate of limbs, visceral fat index] and serum adipokines(adiponectin, neuropeptide Q(NPQ), asprosin, irisin)levels were compared before treatment and 3 months after treatment. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were observed. Results After 3 months of treatment, FBG, 2 h PBG, HbAlc, TC, TG, body fat rate, body mass index, subcutaneous fat rate of limbs, visceral fat index and asprosin in the two groups were lower than those before treatment, and those in the dulaglutide group were lower than those in the liraglutide group(P<0.05). After 3 months of treatment, the levels of serum adiponectin, NPQ and irisin in the two groups were higher than those before treatment, and the increase in the dulaglutide group was greater than that in the liraglutide group(P<0.05). The effective rate of dulaglutide group(98.00%)was higher than that of liraglutide group(91.00 %)(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(11.00%, 14.00%)(P>0.05). Conclusion Dulaglutide combined with metformin could improve the metabolic status of obese T2 DM patients, regulate body fat composition and serum adipokines, with significant clinical efficacy and safety.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the correlation between the changes in homocysteine, uric acid, and lipid metabolism and the psychopathological status of patients with first-episode schizophrenia.Methods:Between June 2021 and June 2023, a total of 82 patients with first-episode schizophrenia who received treatment at Wenzhou Seventh People's Hospital were included in the study group. Additionally, 82 individuals who underwent physical examination at the same hospital during the same period were included in the control group. The homocysteine levels were measured using the enzyme cycling method, while uric acid levels were determined via the uric acid enzyme method. Lipid metabolism levels were assessed using a fully automated biochemical analyzer. The positive and negative syndrome (PANSS) scale scores, which assess positive, negative, and general psychopathological status in patients with first-episode schizophrenia, were obtained. Serum homocysteine and uric acid levels, as well as lipid metabolism levels, were compared between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the correlation between general psychopathological status scores and homocysteine, uric acid, and lipid metabolism levels. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the factors (homocysteine, uric acid, or lipid metabolism levels) that affect first-episode schizophrenia.Results:The patients with first-episode schizophrenia exhibited positive symptom scores of (25.74 ± 5.63) points, negative symptom scores of (23.12 ± 6.76) points, general psychopathological status scores of (37.91 ± 5.87) points, and a total score of (86.77 ± 7.75) points. The serum homocysteine and uric acid levels in the study group were (23.12 ± 3.78) μmol/L and (345.12 ± 27.38) μmol/L, respectively. These values were significantly higher than those in the control group [(8.81 ± 2.19) μmol/L, (218.48 ± 23.51) μmol/L, t = 29.66, -31.78, both P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in total cholesterol and triacylglycerol levels between the two groups (both P > 0.05). However, serum level of low density lipoprotein cholesterol in the study group was (3.26 ± 1.04) mmol/L, which was significantly higher than that in the control group [(2.34 ± 0.78) mmol/L, t = -6.41, P < 0.05]. Serum level of high density lipoprotein cholesterol in the study group was (1.02 ± 0.13) mmol/L, which was significantly lower than that in the control group [(1.17 ± 0.14) mmol/L, t = 7.11, P < 0.05). Pearson correlation analysis indicated a positive linear correlation between the general psychopathological status score and homocysteine, uric acid, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Conversely, it exhibited a negative linear correlation with high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels. Multivariate logistic regression analysis further showed that homocysteine, uric acid, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were strongly associated with first-episode schizophrenia. Conclusion:In patients with first-episode schizophrenia, homocysteine, uric acid, and low density lipoprotein cholesterol levels are elevated, while high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels are reduced. There markers are closely related to patients' psychopathological status.

RESUMO
Background: Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) technology has been central in detecting infectious diseases and helping to simultaneously reveal the complex interplay between invaders and their hosts immune response characteristics. However, it needs to be rigorously assessed for clinical utility. The present study is the first to evaluate the clinical characteristics of the host DNA-removed mNGS technology for detecting SARS-CoV-2, revealing host local immune signaling and assisting genomic epidemiology. Methods: 46 swab specimens collected from COVID-19 patients were assayed by two approved commercial RT-qPCR kits and mNGS. The evolutionary tree of SARS-CoV-2 was plotted using FigTree directly from one sample. The workflow of removing the host and retaining the host was compared to investigate the influence of host DNA removal on the performances of mNGS. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs and xCell score were used to explore the characteristics of host local immune signaling. Results: The detection rate of mNGS achieved 92.9% (26/28) for 28 samples with a Ct value ≤ 35 and 81.1% (30/37) for all 46 samples. The genome coverage of SARS-CoV-2 could reach up to 98.9% when the Ct value is about 20 in swab samples. Removing the host could enhance the sensitivity of mNGS for detecting SARS-CoV-2 from the swab sample but does not affect the species abundance of microbes RNA. Improving the sequencing depth did not show a positive effect on improving the detection sensitivity of SARS-CoV-2. Cell type enrichment scores found multiple immune cell types were differentially expressed between patients with high and low viral load. Conclusions: The host DNA-removed mNGS has great potential utility and superior performance on comprehensive identification of SARS-CoV-2 and rapid traceability, revealing the microbiome's transcriptional profiles and host immune responses.

Clarifying the relationship between ethical principles and rules is the key to promote the legitimate governance of scientific and technological ethics. Ethical principles and rules, as the two basic elements of science and technology ethics, are both different and related. The ethical principles are the basis and direction of the formulation of the ethical rules which are the most direct expression of following the ethical principles and an effective means to improve the effect of ethical governance. Among them, ethical standards are the general standard rules with strong universality. Based on the analysis of the relationship between the ethical principles and the ethical guidelines, this paper put forward the expression mode and reasonable application of science and technology ethical principles in the ethical rules, so as to promote the improvement of the national ethics governance system of biomedical science and technology.

RESUMO
Objective:To analyze the risk factors of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in patients with tibial plateau fracture during preoperative period.Methods:From July 2017 to October 2019, a total of 264 patients undergoing surgeries of tibial plateau fractures were enrolled. Duplex ultrasonography (DUS) during hospitalization was used to screen for DVT of the bilateral lower extremities. Patients were divided into DVT group and non-DVT group according to results of DUS. Data on demographics, comorbidities, injury-related data, fracture type, laboratory biomarkers were collected and compared between groups with and without DVT.Results:The incidence of preoperative DVT was 39.0% (103/264) among 264 patients with traumatic tibial plateau fractures, and distal thrombosis predominated in DVT group. There were 103 cases in DVT group. 55 were males and 48 were females. The average age was 54.00±11.12. According to the Schatzker classification of tibial plateau fractures, 7 cases belonged to type I, 37 to type II, 2 to type III, 11 to type IV, 29 to type V, and 17 to type VI. There were 161 cases in non-DVT group. 89 were males and 72 were females. The average age was 48.57±13.25. According to the Schatzker classification of tibial plateau fractures, 23 cases belonged to type I, 76 to type II, 2 to type III, 10 to type IV, 33 to type V, and 17 to type VI. Univariate analysis showed that age ( t=3.451, P=0.001), the type of tibial plateau fracture ( χ2=8.314, P=0.004), D-dimer ( χ2=18.552, P<0.001), APTT ( t=2.869, P=0.004), ALB ( t=2.292, P=0.023) and Hb ( t=1.983, P=0.048) were statistically different than those in non-DVT group. Multivariate analysis showed age ( OR=1.033, 95% CI: 1.009, 1.058; P=0.007), the type of tibial plateau fracture ( OR=1.829, 95% CI: 1.014, 3.299; P=0.045) and D-dimer ( OR=1.914, 95% CI: 1.057, 3.464; P=0.032) were independent risk factors. Conclusion:The incidence of DVT in patients with tibial plateau fractures during preoperative period is high, and distal thrombosis is the main part of venous thrombosis of lower extremity. The type of tibial plateau fracture, age and the level of D-dimer are independent risk factors of preoperative DVT in patients with tibial plateau fractures.
RESUMO
Rett syndrome (RTT) is a progressive neurodevelopmental disorder, mainly caused by mutations in MeCP2 and currently with no cure. We report here that neurons from R106W MeCP2 RTT human iPSCs as well as human embryonic stem cells after MeCP2 knockdown exhibit consistent and long-lasting impairment in maturation as indicated by impaired action potentials and passive membrane properties as well as reduced soma size and spine density. Moreover, RTT-inherent defects in neuronal maturation could be pan-neuronal and occurred in neurons with both dorsal and ventral forebrain features. Knockdown of MeCP2 led to more severe neuronal deficits as compared to RTT iPSC-derived neurons, which appeared to retain partial function. Strikingly, consistent deficits in nuclear size, dendritic complexity and circuitry-dependent spontaneous postsynaptic currents could only be observed in MeCP2 knockdown neurons but not RTT iPSC-derived neurons. Both neuron-intrinsic and circuitry-dependent deficits of MeCP2-deficient neurons could be fully or partially rescued by re-expression of wild type or T158M MeCP2, strengthening the dosage dependency of MeCP2 on disease phenotypes and also the partial function of the mutant. Our findings thus reveal stable neuronal maturation deficits and unexpectedly, graded sensitivities of neuron-inherent and neural transmission phenotypes towards the extent of MeCP2 deficiency, which is informative for future therapeutic development.
RESUMO
Objective:To detect the potential biomarkers in the serum of adolescents with depressive disorder and provide the basis for clinical diagnosis of depression.Methods:A total of 45 adolescents with depression who met the inclusion criteria and 47 healthy controls (HC group) were screened.Patients with depression were treated with sertraline (100 mg/d) for 4 weeks.The patients before sertraline treatment were called DN-MDD group and then were called DT-MDD group after sertraline treatmant.Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD) was used to evaluate the efficacy of the two groups before and after treatment.The serum was collected for UPLC-MS/MS to determine the changes in profiles of endogenous metabolites.And the software of SPSS 21.0, XCMS and Analyst 3.0 were used to analyze the data.The reliability and feasibility of clinical diagnosis were further analyzed by ROC via GraphPad 8.0.Results:After 4 weeks of sertraline treatment, the patients' HAMD score decreased (before: 19.71±1.72, after: 15.36±1.91) and the effective rate reached 51% ( P<0.01). Multivariate statistical analysis showed that HC group and DN-MDD group and DT-MDD group had significant differences in metabolic profile.Compared with healthy controls, 11 different metabolites were found in the plasma of DN-MDD group including glycerate, adenosine, creatine and so on.After treatment, concentrations of glucose, glutamate, aspartate, sucrose, creatine, pyruvate and adenosine were significant changes in serum of adolescent depression patients.Area under ROC curve of glucose and glutamic acid were >0.9, and the AUC of aspartic acid, sucrose, creatine, pyruvate and adenosine were >0.7, suggesting that these 7 metabolites had different degrees of diagnostic ability. Conclusion:There are different metabolic profiles between adolescents with or without depression, and the antidepressant sertraline is helpful to maintain the level of substance metabolism which can be used as one of the treatment methods for adolescent depression.Our research may support the new strategy for clinical diagnosis and treatment of adolescent depression.

RESUMO
Objective The aim of this study was to explore the inhibitory effect of alcohol extracts of Narcissus bulb on melanogenesis in zebrafish embryos.Methods Zebrafish embryos were exposed to different concentrations of alcohol extracts of Narcissus (0, 50, 100, 200, and 500 μg/mL), and then the formation of melanin was observed.Furthermore, we measured the enzyme activity of tyrosinase (TYR), which plays a pivotal role in melanogenesis.Meanwhile, the spatial and temporal pattern of melanin-specific marker genes were detected.Arbutin (Ar) was used as a positive control in all these experiments.Results The treatment of alcohol extracts of Narcissus bulb inhibited melanogenesis in the zebrafish embryos in a dose-dependent manner.Furthermore, the mRNA expression levels of melanin-related genes such as tyrosinase (TYR), silver (SILV) and Mitfa were significantly reduced after treatment with different concentrations of Narcissus extracts by in-situ and semi-quantitative PCR.Finally, the enzyme activity of tyrosinase was also gradually decreased with increasing concentrations of the alcohol extracts.Conclusions Narcissus alcohol extracts can effectively inhibit the production of melanin in zebrafish embryos.This study provides potential evidence and approaches for the screening of natural whitening compounds using zebrafish models.
