Regeneration across tissues and organs exhibits significant variation throughout the body and undergoes a progressive decline with age. To decode the relationships between aging and regenerative capacity, we conducted a comprehensive single-cell transcriptome analysis of regeneration in eight tissues from young and aged mice. We employed diverse analytical models to study tissue regeneration and unveiled the intricate cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the attenuated regenerative processes observed in aged tissues.

Studies have indicated a protective role of autophagy in AKI. However, the mechanisms underlying the regulatory effect of autophagy in AKI among patients undergoing cardiac surgeries are poorly understood.

However, little is known about the effect of Lactobacillus casei on postpartum depression (PPD). In this study, we investigated the effects of Lactobacillus casei in improving PPD and potential mechanisms.

At Fuwai Hospital, 600 patients who underwent total aortic arch replacement with MHCA or DHCA from January 2013 to December 2016 were consecutively enrolled and divided into DHCA (14.1-20.

On the basis of preliminarily verifying the use of ultra-fast reaction polymer matrix optical fiber oxygen sensor and its measuring system to record the continuous and dynamic changes of carotid artery oxygen partial pressure (PaO), in order to analyze and discuss the influence of lung ventilation on the continuous and dynamic changes of PaO, we designed a whole animal experimental study in vivo. Four hybrid goats were selected, and the skin was cut and exposed directly under general anesthesia and tracheal intubation. The oxygen sensor, connected with the measuring system, was inserted directly into the left carotid artery to continuously record the dynamic changes of PaO.

The third-party logistics providers (3PLs), who can match the market demand with reliable manufacturers worldwide, have emerged as orchestrators. In addition to the basic transportation and storage services, some 3PLs can also provide procurement assistance to relatively small retailers.

Significantly fewer RIPC-treated patients than sham-treated patients developed postoperative AKI, and, epically, RIPC significantly reduced serious AKI (stage II-III). However, the long-term effect of RIPC in patients undergoing open total aortic arch replacement is unclear.

Background: The adverse effects of long-term maternal exposure of labetalol on neonates have been recognized clinically. But there are few systematic studies on their clinical demonstrations and potential mechanisms.
Methods: A death case of an infant with long-term maternal labetalol exposure was reported and compared with two case reports from the literature.
Objectives: The authors aimed to clarify the incidence and risk factors of postoperative liver dysfunction (PLD) in patients undergoing total arch replacement combined with frozen elephant trunk implantation and to determine the association of PLD with short-term outcomes.
Methods: Data from 672 adult patients undergoing total arch replacement with frozen elephant trunk from January 2013 until December 2016 at Fuwai Hospital were analysed retrospectively. A multivariable logistic regression model was used to identify the risk factors for PLD.
Objectives: The authors compared the renal outcomes of single-stage hybrid aortic arch repair without deep hypothermic circulatory arrest versus conventional total arch replacement in management of thoracic aortic diseases.
Design, Setting, And Participants: A retrospective review from January 2013 to December 2016 in Fuwai Hospital of 757 consecutive patients who underwent aortic arch repair: conventional total arch replacement (CTAR, 651), and hybrid arch repair (HAR, 106), with propensity matching (95 pairs).
Measurements And Main Results: The primary end-point was postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) defined using the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcome criteria.
