To investigate the effect of early fluid resuscitation on intestinal microecology in rats with severe sepsis. The severe sepsis model used was mainly cecal ligation perforation (CLP) model. Male SD rats were randomly divided into five groups: sham, CLP, CLP + normal saline (NS), CLP + cyclophosphamide (CTX), and CLP + NS + CTX. (1) The levels of IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α in peripheral blood were measured by ELISA. (2) The expression of occludin/β-action in colonic tissue of mice was examined by Western Blot. (3) The intestinal permeability was measured by FD70 detection. (4) The length of the chorionic membrane was measured by colon histopathological staining. (5) The intestinal epithelial cell apoptosis was measured with the apoptosis index. (1) The rat model of severe sepsis was successfully replicated, and the 7-day survival rate of sepsis mice in each group was analyzed. (2) The expression level of splenic junction protein and the pathological damage in colonic tissue of the severe sepsis mice was significantly different between sham, CLP, CTX, NS, and NS + CTX (P < 0.05). The expression of tight junction protein in the NS + CTX mice was the highest, and the pathological damage was the smallest. (3) The colonic tissue apoptosis and intestinal permeability in the severe sepsis mice were compared with those of the colon tissues (P < 0.05). (4) The expression levels of IL-6, IL-10, and TNF-α in peripheral blood were significantly increased after severe sepsis (P < 0.01). The expression of IL-6 and TNF-alpha in each treatment group decreased (P < 0.05), while the expression of IL-10 in NS + CTX group increased significantly (P < 0.01). (1) We successfully replicated the rat model of severe sepsis. (2) Early fluid intervention and cyclophosphamide treatment can significantly improve the 7-day survival rate of the sepsis mice. (3) The fluid resuscitation and cyclophosphamide can delay intestinal damage to the intestinal tract barrier function and play a protective role.

Objective: Pregnancies with large-for-gestational-age (LGA) fetuses are associated with increased risks of various adverse perinatal outcomes. While existing research primarily focuses on term neonates, less is known about preterm neonates. This study aims to explore the risks of adverse maternal and neonatal perinatal outcomes associated with LGA in term neonates and neonates with different degrees of prematurity, compared to appropriate-for-gestational-age (AGA) neonates.

Despite the outstanding progress in photonic sensor devices, a major limitation for its application as label-free biosensors for biomedical analysis lies in the surface biofunctionalization step, that is, the reliable immobilization of the biorecognition element onto the sensor surface. Here, we report the integration of bottom-up synthesized nanoporous graphene onto bimodal waveguide interferometric biosensors as an atomically precise biofunctionalization scaffold. This combination leverages the high sensitivity of bimodal waveguide interferometers and the large functional surface area of nanoporous graphene to create highly sensitive, selective, and robust biosensors for the direct immunoassay detection of C-reactive protein (CRP), an inflammatory biomarker widely used in the clinical diagnosis of infections and sepsis.

Objective: Patients who undergo major lower extremity amputation (MLEA) have the highest postoperative mortality among orthopedic patient groups. The comorbidity profile for MLEA patients is often extensive and associated with elevated postoperative mortality. This study primarily aimed to investigate the increased short- and long-term mortality following first and subsequent major lower extremity amputation.
