Purpose: To investigate the intestinal inflammatory response and the abundance of intestinal bacteria in rats with high-fat diet (HFD)-induced nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and assess the intervention effects of taurine (TAU).

Methods: Forty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups: group I, normal diet and normal saline gavage; group II, normal diet and TAU gavage; group III, HFD and normal saline gavage; group IV, HFD and TAU gavage (from the 1st week); group V, HFD and TAU gavage (from the 10th week). At the end of the 16th week, all the animals were sacrificed.

The complex pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has become a major obstacle in its treatment. An effective approach is to develop multifunctional agents that simultaneously target multiple pathological processes. Here, a series of diosgenin-indole compounds were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their neuroprotective effects against HO (hydrogen peroxide), 6-OHDA (6-hydroxydopamine) and Aβ (beta amyloid) damages.

Inflammatory cells in atherosclerotic plaque exclusively originate from hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). In this study, we investigated whether circulating HSPCs frequency related to coronary stenosis in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Coronary angiography was performed in 468 participants who were recruited at Cardiology Centre in LuHe Hospital from March 2016 to May 2017.

Objectives: To assess the feasibility and outcome of primary laparoscopic cytoreductive surgery on advanced epithelial ovarian cancer in comparison with conventional open surgery.

Materials And Methods: Patients undergoing primary laparoscopic cytoreductive surgery (LCS) from March 2007 to December 2016 were matched to controls treated with laparotomic cytoreduction during the same period. Procedural data and outcomes were analyzed.

Objective: To evaluate the complications after trans-vaginal mesh-augmented pelvic floor reconstruction in treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Methods: From February 2007 to October 2009, vaginal mesh procedures were performed on 91 women with POP stage III-IV in Peking University Third Hospital. The operative complications were studied.

Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect and influence factors of silicone pessary in treatment of pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Methods: From October 2005 to October 2010, 132 with symptomatic POP managed by pessary were enrolled in this retrospective study. Validated prolapse quality of life questionnaire (pelvic floor distress inventory short form 20, PFDI-20), pelvic floor impact questionnaire short form 7 (PFIQ-7) and the patients' satisfaction degree were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect.

Objective: To evaluate clinical outcome and complications of mesh-augmented vaginal reconstructive surgery in treatment of pelvic organ prolapse.

Methods: From Feb 2007 to Jan 2009, mesh-augmented vaginal reconstructive surgery were performed on 66 women with pelvic organ prolapse stage III-IV. Pre and postoperative symptoms, pelvic organ prolapse quantitation (POP-Q) stage and pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20) measurements were studied to assess anatomic and quality-of-life outcome.

In order to reach the purpose of co-transferring double drug resistance genes into human CD34(+) progenitor cells to broaden the spectrum of drug resistance, the expression efficiency of human multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene mediated by the internal ribosomal entry site (IRES) was investigated. Two retroviral vectors were transferred into packaging cells. One is pSF-DIM containing double drug resistance genes, in which the translation of MDR1 gene was controlled under an IRES from encephalomyocarditis virus.
