Lactulose vs Polyethylene Glycol for Bowel Preparation: A Single-Center, Prospective, Randomized Controlled Study Based on BMI.

INTRODUCTION: Colonoscopy is currently considered as one of the principal techniques to diagnose the colorectal diseases. Admittedly, qualified bowel preparation before colonoscopy is a premise for high-quality examination. Lower quality bowel preparation might seriously impede visualization of the intestinal mucosa, resulting in missed and misdiagnosed intestinal lesions. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the appropriate oral laxative based on the guarantee of safety and efficacy. METHODS: This prospective randomized controlled study was conducted to compare lactulose oral solution and polyethylene glycol (PEG) electrolyte powder for bowel preparation using the following indicators: Boston Bowel Preparation Scale, Bowel Bubble Score, detection rate of adenoma and lesion, patients' satisfaction, and adverse effects. Our study investigated the suitability of 2 bowel preparation reagents for patients with different body mass indices mainly based on body mass index (BMI). RESULTS: In the lactulose group, there was a significant improvement in the quality of bowel preparation compared with those in the PEG group ( P < 0.05), especially in people with normal BMI and higher BMI. Compared with the PEG group, individuals in the lactulose group had a significantly higher adenoma detection rate (50% vs 33.5%, P < 0.05) and taste scores (8.82 vs 6.69, P < 0.05), as well as significantly fewer adverse reactions (6.5% vs 32.5%, P < 0.05). DISCUSSION: Lactulose oral solution is superior to PEG in bowel preparation quality and taste, especially in normal BMI and higher BMI groups. It can be used clinically as a potential and promising bowel preparation agent in the future. Clinical Trial registration number: ChiCTR2100054318.

BACKGROUND:In the early development of zebrafish embryos, cels divide and proliferate rapidly, but low concentration of deguelin can delay the development of zebrafish embryos. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of different concentrations of deguelin on cyclin D1 gene expression in zebrafish embryos. METHODS:Though normal fertilization, zebrafish embryos that incubated to the 2-cel stage (about 0.75 hour after fertilization) and shield stage (6 hours after fertilization) were colected and put into 12-wel plates treated with 100, 200, 400 nmol/L deguelin at 28.5℃in an incubator til the shield period and 24 hours after fertilization, respectively. Simultaneously embroys treated with 1% dimethyl sulfoxide solution were as a control group, cultured in the same conditions. Cyclin D1 RNA probes were prepared for the whole mountin situhybridization, observing staining by an upright fluorescent microscope camera to detect the effect of deguelin on cyclin D1 expression in zebrafish embryos. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Deguelin showed significant negative regulation on the expression of cyclin D1 gene in zebrafish embryos. Cyclin D1 expressed in outsourcing cels in embryos of shield stage, and a significant reduction in the expression of cyclin D1 came up with the increasing concentrations of deguelin. In the 400 nmol/L deguelin treatment group, there was nearly no expression of cyclin D1. Cyclin D1 expressed in the brain, central nervous system, immature eye, somites, trunk, and tail of embryos at 24 hours after fertilization, and reduced significantly in the 100 nmol/L deguelin treatment group, especialy in the proliferative area. In the 200 and 400 nmol/L treatment groups, the embryonic development slowed down signficantly, and cyclin D1 gene mainly expressed in the dorsal ectoderm cels.
