Dysregulation of the KLF9/TXNRD2 Axis Leads to Mitochondrial DNA Oxidation and NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation in Ulcerative Colitis

This study investigated the roles and mechanism of the transcription factor KLF9 and its downstream target gene TXNRD2 in ulcerative colitis (UC). An in vitro inflammatory model was established by stimulating human normal colonic mucosal epithelial cells (NCM460) with LPS and ATP...

Evaluating sedation efficacy and perioperative safety of fospropofol disodium versus propofol in elderly patients undergoing elective TURP: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Fospropofol disodium is the first novel water-soluble propofol prodrug in China. After administration, it is mainly converted to propofol by alkaline phosphatase on the surface of endothelial cells to exert its pharmacological effects. Compared with propofol, fospropofol disodium...

Long-term outcomes of hemithyroidectomy in unexpected hereditary medullary thyroid cancer: a nationwide observational study

Total thyroidectomy (TT) is the standard surgical approach for hereditary medullary thyroid cancer (hMTC). However, it is not rare in clinical practice for patients with hMTC to initially undergo hemithyroidectomy (HT) because the hereditary nature of the disease is not recognize...

A pilot prospective study of tislelizumab and axitinib combined with stereotactic body radiation therapy for oligometastatic renal cell carcinoma

<title>Abstract</title> Background The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab and axitinib combined with SBRT in the treatment of omRCC. Methods Eligible pts had oligometastases (≤ 5 leisions) and ≤ 1 prior systemic therapy. All patients recei...

The role of mitochondrial fusion protein 2 in regulating ER stress in premature placental aging

Advanced maternal age (AMA) is associated with an increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes, which may be attributed to premature placental aging. Previous studies have demonstrated that mitochondrial fusion protein 2 (Mfn2) plays a critical role in aging-related neurodegenera...

Mefatinib versus gefitinib as a first-line treatment for EGFR-mutated non-small cell lung cancer: a randomized, double-blind, multicenter phase III study

Mefatinib, a novel second-generation epidermal growth factor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor that has shown promising antitumor activity in targeting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with common and uncommon EGFR- activating mutations. In this phase III, randomized, double-bli...

Comparison of Labetalol With Versus Without Magnesium Sulfate on Intraoperative Blood Pressure Variability During Cesarean Delivery in Hypertensive Disorders of Pregnancy: A Retrospective Cohort Study

AIM: This study aims to investigate the effects of two medication regimens—labetalol combined with magnesium sulfate versus labetalol alone—on intraoperative blood pressure variability (BPV) and maternal-neonatal outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP)...

Unusual clinical and MRI manifestations of nitrous oxide intoxication: a case report and literature review

Nitrous oxide (N₂O) abuse can lead to functional vitamin B 12 deficiency and hypoxia, resulting in neurological dysfunction and subacute combined degeneration (SCD) of the spinal cord. SCD typically involves the posterior and lateral columns of the spinal cord and may also affect...

Comparison of ultrasound-guided two-point block of the rhomboid intercostal vs. thoracic paravertebral for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing three-port thoracoscopic surgery: a prospective, randomized, non-inferiority study

Background The anesthetic characteristics of ultrasound-guided two-point rhomboid intercostal block (RIB) have not been fully established. This study compared the analgesic efficacy of ultrasound-guided two-point RIB with that of two-point thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) for...
