The study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms by which Biochanin A inhibits proliferation and induces apoptosis in breast cancer cells. Cultured MCF-7 cells were divided into four groups: Group 1-control, while Groups 2, 3, and 4 were treated with Biochanin A at different concentrations. After treatment, the cells were monitored, and morphological changes were examined after 24 h of incubation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the effects of lancao decoction (LC), a traditional Chinese medicine, on cognitive impairment related to Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting its potential therapeutic benefits based on previous findings.
  • The aim is to investigate the neuronal mechanisms of LC treatment in APP/PS1 mice, using behavioral tests and network pharmacology to identify relevant pathways and targets.
  • Results show that LC significantly improves cognitive performance and engages specific signaling pathways (PI3K/AKT and MAPK), indicating its effectiveness similar to donepezil, with noticeable changes in protein expression in the hippocampus.

Article Synopsis
  • Effective osteointegration is crucial for pedicle screws used in spinal fusion surgeries, as current screws often lack osteoinductive activity, leading to common complications like screw loosening.
  • Researchers developed Ti-6Al-4V pedicle screws using selective laser melting (SLM) and applied porous oxide coatings to enhance their surface properties.
  • A goat model showed that these modified screws improved bone maturation and osseointegration, suggesting a promising approach for better orthopedic internal fixation.

To comprehensively evaluate the effect of accelerated rehabilitation surgical care on perioperative wound infections and complications in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. A comprehensive computerised search for randomised controlled trials (RCTs) of accelerated rehabilitative surgical care applied to patients undergoing lung cancer surgery was conducted using the Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, Wanfang and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases from inception to September 2023. The literature was screened and evaluated by two investigators, and data were extracted from the final included literature.

Background: Pembrolizumab plus trastuzumab and chemotherapy showed remarkable efficacy as first-line therapy for advanced HER2-positive gastric cancer. Pyrotinib is an irreversible pan-HER inhibitor. This single-arm, open-label phase 1 dose-escalation (1a) and expansion (1b) study investigated camrelizumab, an anti-PD-1 antibody, plus pyrotinib and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced HER2-positive gastric and gastroesophageal junction (G/GEJ) adenocarcinoma.

Background: To elucidate clinical applications of detecting serum levels of H19 and CRP in predicting the severity of ulcerative colitis (UC).

Methods: Two hundred UC patients were recruited, and classified to mild/moderate group and severe group according to the Truelove-Witts grading system. Serum levels of H19 and CRP in UC patients were detected by turbidimetric inhibition immuno assay and qRT-PCR.

Sepsis is the most common cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). Based on microarray-based clustering analysis of miRNAs altered in the kidneys of LPS-AKI mice, miR-20a-3p was upregulated in the kidney tissues of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated mice. We aimed to reveal the functions of miR-20a-3p in septic AKI by establishing the LPS-stimulated mouse model of AKI and constructing the LPS-stimulated HK-2 cells.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the universally established cancers with a higher incidence rate. Novel progression toward cancer prevention and cancer care among countries in transition should be considered seriously for controlling CRC. Hence, several cutting edge technologies are ongoing for high performance cancer therapeutics over the past few decades.

Electroacupuncture (EA) is considered to have a therapeutic effect in the relief of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)-associated visceral hypersensitivity the reduction of the level of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and 5-HT receptors (5-HTR). However, whether Epac1/Piezo2, as the upstream of 5-HT, is involved in this process remains unclear. We investigated whether EA at the ST36 and ST37 acupoints alleviated visceral and somatic hypersensitivity in a post-inflammatory IBS (PI-IBS) model mice the Epac1-Piezo2 axis.

Purpose: The aim of the study was to analyze the incidence of proximal avulsion of the five main ligaments and to revise the diagonal tension/compression concept in tibial plateau fractures.

Methods: Computed tomographic images of 1263 cases of tibial plateau fractures were retrospectively analyzed by the OTA/AO classification and four-column nine-segment classification. The correlation between proximal avulsion of five ligaments and the injury mechanism was analyzed.

Identification and diagnosis of meniscus tear by magnetic resonance imaging using a deep learning model.

J Orthop Translat

May 2022

State Key Laboratory of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology, Division of Sports Medicine and Adult Reconstructive Surgery, Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Medical School of Nanjing University, China.

Objective: Meniscus tear is a common problem in sports trauma, and its imaging diagnosis mainly relies on MRI. To improve the diagnostic accuracy and efficiency, a deep learning model was employed in this study and the identification efficiency was evaluated.

Methods: Standard knee MRI images from 924 individual patients were used to complete the training, validation and testing processes.

Early Detection and Prediction of Anthracycline-Induced Right Ventricular Cardiotoxicity by 3-Dimensional Echocardiography.

JACC CardioOncol

March 2020

Department of Echocardiography, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai Institute of Cardiovascular Diseases, Shanghai Institute of Medical Imaging, Shanghai, China.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to assess the associations between 3-dimensional echocardiography (3DE)-derived changes in right ventricular (RV) volumes and strains with subsequent RV cardiotoxicity in patients treated with anthracyclines.

Background: Although early detection and prediction of left ventricular (LV) dysfunction has been widely studied in patients receiving anthracyclines, little is known about the early changes in RV size and function in this population.

Methods: A total of 74 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who received 6 cycles of anthracycline-based treatment were enrolled.
