Aim: To assess the effect of oxygen reserve index (ORi)-guided titration of fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) on the incidence of postoperative delirium (POD) and the frequency of hyperoxemia episodes, assuming a potential link between hyperoxemia and POD.
Methods: This randomized controlled trial included 114 patients aged 65 years and older, scheduled for elective surgeries lasting over two hours at Health Sciences University Tepecik Training and Research Hospital between October 1, 2023, and July 7, 2024. Patients were randomized into the control group (n=57) or the ORi+pulse oximetry (SpO2) group (n=57). In the ORi+SpO2 group, we dynamically adjusted FiO2 based on the real-time ORi and SpO2 values, targeting 95%
Results: The incidence of POD was significantly higher in the control group than in the ORi+SpO2 group (42.1% vs 12.3%, P<0.001). The average FiO2 levels in the ORi+SpO2 group were significantly lower throughout surgery (P<0.001). The ORi+SpO2 group also exhibited a lower frequency of hyperoxemia episodes.
Conclusion: The ORi-guided oxygenation strategy significantly reduced the incidence of POD in elderly patients by effectively minimizing intraoperative hyperoxemia. Optimizing intraoperative oxygenation through non-invasive monitoring may enhance perioperative outcomes.

Cyclophosphamide (CTX) exposure causes premature ovarian insufficiency (POI). The therapeutic potential of exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hucMSCs) is not fully understood, especially regarding whether hypoxic preconditioning enhances their efficacy in POI. In this study, exosomes were isolated and identified from hucMSCs (hucMSCs-Exos) under hypoxic (HExos) and normoxic (NExos) conditions.

The occurrence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is relevant to impaired intestinal mucosal barrier and disordered gut microbiota, subsequently leading to excessive production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and elevated levels of inflammatory factors. Traditional therapies focus on inhibiting inflammation, but the vast majority involve non-targeted systemic administration, whose long-term use may result in potential side effects. Oral microbial therapy has exhibited great application prospects currently in IBD treatment; however, its progress has been slowed by issues with deficient bioavailability, poor targeting of colitis, and low therapeutic efficacy.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is a highly aggressive cancer with poor prognosis, largely due to the rapid development of chemoresistance in patients. Mitochondrial dynamics play a crucial role in cancer cell survival. Currently, the specific mechanisms underlying gemcitabine resistance in PDAC remain unknown.

To investigate the effects of varying NAT1 activity in different cell-lines, mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, aerobic glycolysis and mitochondrial fuel usage was quantified in a panel of human cell-lines. As NAT1 activity increased, mitochondrial reserve respiratory capacity increased while aerobic glycolysis decreased. In addition, phosphorylation of PDH-E1α in these cells limited their ability to use glucose as a primary fuel source.

Background: 10-Hydroxydec-2-enoic acid (10-HDA), a unique and marker compound in royal jelly, has a wide range of bio-activities. However, its role in regulating inflammation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC), which is essential to a set of vascular diseases, is still unknown.
Purpose: Our study aimed to investigate whether 10-HDA exerts effect on VSMC inflammation via interacting with toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), a pivotal inflammatory initiator.
