Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is one of the most common diseases in China. The incidence of CRS in the Chinese urban population is between 5 and 15%. It is difficult to cure with traditional surgery. Endoscopic sinus surgery is the first choice for the treatment of CRS. Compared with developed countries, the development of the clinical pathway of endoscopic sinus surgery in China is still unclear.
Objectives: The aim is to explore whether the clinical pathway of endonasal sinus surgery is better than the traditional one in the Chinese population.
Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, SinoMed, China National Knowledge Internet, Wanfang database of Chinese Journals, and VIP database of Chinese Journals. The last retrieval date was August 24, 2018. Review Manager 5.3 software was used for comprehensive quantification data analysis.
Results: Fourteen papers involving 1,882 patients were included in this study. The results showed that compared with the traditional pathway, the clinical pathway can effectively shorten the average number of hospitalization days (mean difference, MD = -2.00, 95% CI: -2.50, -1.49). In total, 10 of the 14 papers, with a total of 1,500 patients, proved that the clinical pathway can effectively reduce the hospitalization costs of patients (standard mean difference, SMD = -3.15, 95% CI: -4.20, -2.10); 11 of the 14 papers, with a total of 1,488 patients, proved that the clinical pathway can effectively improve patients' knowledge of health (95% CI:1.03, 1.09); and 7 of the 14 papers, with a total of 810 patients, proved that the clinical pathway can effectively improve patient satisfaction (95% CI:1.10, 1.20).
Conclusions: Our systematic review and meta-analysis support the use of the clinical pathway in patients with endoscopic sinus surgery in China.

There is growing interest in understanding the complex relationship between psychosocial stress and the human gastrointestinal microbiome (GIM). This review explores the potential physiological pathways connecting these two and how they contribute to a pro-inflammatory environment that can lead to the development and progression of the disease. Exposure to psychosocial stress triggers the activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) and hypothalamic-pituitary axis (HPA), leading to various physiological responses essential for survival and coping with the stressor.

Background: The metabolism of stearoyl-GPE plays a key role in the liver metastasis of gastric cancer. This investigation delves into the mechanisms underlying the intricate tumor microenvironment (TME) heterogeneity triggered by stearoyl metabolism in gastric cancer with liver metastasis (LMGC), offering novel perspectives for LMGC.
Objective: Utilizing Mendelian randomization, we determined that stearoyl metabolism significantly contributes to the progression of gastric cancer (GC).

The dysregulation of lipid metabolism has been associated with the etiology and progression of the neurological pathology. However, the roles of lipid metabolism and the molecular mechanism in epilepsy and the use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) are relatively understudied. Gene expression profiles of GSE143272 from blood samples were included for differential analysis, and the lipid metabolism-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified.

Background: Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (S-ALI) significantly contributes to unfavorable clinical outcomes. Emerging evidence suggests a novel role for ferroptosis in the pathophysiology of ALI, though the precise mechanisms remain unclear. Mild hypothermia (32-34 °C) has been shown to inhibit inflammatory responses, reduce oxidative stress, and regulate metabolic processes.

Background: Exosomes are extracellular vesicles released by cells that mediate intercellular communication and actively participate in cancer progression, metastasis, and regulation of immune response within the tumour microenvironment. Inhibiting exosome release from cancer cells could be employed as a therapeutic against cancer.
Methods And Results: In the present study, we have studied the effects of Acorus calamus in inhibiting exosome secretion via targetting Rab27a and neutral sphingomyelinase 2 (nSMase2) in HER2-positive (MDA-MB-453), hormone receptor-positive (MCF-7) and triple-negative breast cancer (MDA-MB-231) cells.
