Objectives: To report the first and largest systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCT) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of aripiprazole or bupropion augmentation and switching in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) or major depressive disorder(MDD).

Methods: We conducted a systematic literature retrieval via PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane until April 2023 for RCT, which evaluated the efficacy and safety of aripiprazole or bupropion augmentation and switching for patients with TRD or MDD. Outcomes measured were changes in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS), response and remission rate, and serious adverse events.

The gene for glutathione S-transferase (GST) in Antarctic sea-ice yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa AN5 was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli and named RmGST. Sequence analysis showed that the RmGST gene contained a 843 bp open reading frame, which encoded 280 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 30.4 kDa and isoelectric point of 5.

Metallothionein (MT) is a low-molecular-weight protein with a high metal binding capacity and plays a key role in organism adaptation to heavy metals. In this study, a metallothionein gene was successfully cloned and sequenced from Antarctic sea-ice yeast Rhodotorula mucilaginosa AN5. Nucleotide sequencing and analysis revealed that the gene had four exons interrupted by three introns.

Background: Prophylactic anticoagulant therapy is recommended to reduce the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after total hip or knee arthroplasty, and has become the standard of care. Rivaroxaban is a novel oral medication that directly inhibits factor Xa for the prevention and treatment of thromboembolic conditions.

Method: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was performed to determine the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) surgery.

To study the mechanism and inhibitory effect of Saposhnikovia divaricata polysaccharide (SDP) on fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) isolated from rheumatoid arthritis rat model. Rheumatoid arthritis rat model was established by the classical composite factors including wind, cold, damp plus biological agents. The synovial tissues were digested with trypsin to isolate FLS cells.

This study aims to explore the effect of intravenous anesthesia on the adrenal gland functions of rats with sepsis as well as on their lungs and adrenal gland tissues in order to provide a theoretical reference for the cure of sepsis. Female Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were taken as the research objects in this study. Venous channels of rats were constructed by catheterization through the external jugular vein, and the cecal ligation and puncture technique was adopted to duplicate the sepsis rat models.
