Oliceridine used for patient-controlled analgesia on postoperative quality of recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological tumour resection: a randomized clinical trial.

BACKGROUND: Oliceridine, a novel biased μ-opioid receptor agonist, is widely used perioperatively, yet limited data exists regarding its impact on postoperative quality of recovery. This study investigated the effect of oliceridine-based patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) on postoperative quality of recovery among patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological tumour resection. METHODS: Ninety‑four female patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic gynecological tumour resection were included. Patients were randomized to two groups: oliceridine group (loading dose 1.5 mg, PCIA 0.55 mg/kg) or sufentanil group (loading dose 10 μg, PCIA 3 μg/kg). The primary outcome was the Quality of Recovery-40 (QoR-40) score on postoperative day 1. The secondary outcomes included the QoR-40 score, the numeric rating scale (NRS) pain score, the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety (HADS-A) score, the Fatigue, Resistance, Ambulation, Illness and Loss of weight (FRAIL) index and adverse events within 3 postoperative days. RESULTS: Higher QoR-40 scores were found in the oliceridine group on postoperative day 1 (182.9 ± 3.1 versus 177.5 ± 3.9, p < 0.001). Compared with the sufentanil group, the oliceridine group showed better QoR-40 scores within 3 days after operation. No significant differences were observed in NRS pain scores or HADS-A scores between the two groups (all p > 0.05). However, the median FRAIL score in the oliceridine group was lower on postoperative day 2 (p = 0.018). CONCLUSION: Oliceridine used in PCIA improves early postoperative recovery quality of patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological tumour resection. It provides analgesic effect comparable to sufentanil and lowers incidences of postoperative frailty, nausea and vomiting.

Outcomes of stereotactic radiosurgery for spine multiple myeloma-a systematic review.

Spinal involvement in multiple myeloma (MM) commonly results in pain, vertebral instability, epidural spinal cord compression, and neurological deficits. Although conventional external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) remains the standard radiation modality because of the radiosensitive nature of MM, stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) has emerged as a highly conformal treatment option capable of delivering focal high-dose radiation while sparing adjacent spinal cord structures and uninvolved bone marrow. This systematic review evaluated the clinical outcomes and safety profile of SRS for spinal MM. A systematic review of the literature was performed to identify studies evaluating SRS for spinal MM. Extracted variables included patient demographics, tumor characteristics, treatment parameters, radiographic outcomes, pain response, neurological outcomes, local control, overall survival, and adverse events. Three retrospective studies comprising 133 patients and 181 treated spinal lesions met the inclusion criteria. Median patient age ranged from 59 to 65 years, with a slight male predominance across studies. Thoracic spine lesions represented the most treated region (55.5-67.7%). Median prescribed SRS dose was 14-16 Gy, predominantly delivered in a single fraction. Median follow-up ranged from 11.2 to 27.8 months. Local control rates ranged from 89.4 to 100%, with 6- and 12-month local control rates of 94% and 91%, respectively, in one study. Pain improvement was reported in 41-88% of treated patients/sites, with a median time to pain relief of 1.6 months in one cohort. Neurological improvement occurred in 56-71.4% of patients with preexisting deficits. Reported adverse events included vertebral compression fractures, fracture progression, pain flare, and tracheoesophageal fistula. De novo vertebral fractures ranged from 3.6 to 7%, while fracture progression ranged from 14 to 18%. SRS appears to provide excellent local control and meaningful pain and neurological improvement in patients with spinal MM, with acceptable toxicity profiles. The highly conformal nature of SRS may preserve uninvolved bone marrow and facilitate continuation of systemic therapy. However, the current evidence is limited to small retrospective studies with heterogeneous reporting, and further prospective comparative studies are needed to better define the role of SRS relative to conventional EBRT in spinal MM.

Non-genetic Risk Factors for Allopurinol-Induced Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reaction (SCAR): A Systematic Review.

BACKGROUND: Allopurinol-induced severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) are rare but potentially life threatening, particularly in Asian populations. While the genetic marker HLA-B*58:01 is a well-established risk factor, non-genetic factors may also contribute. This systematic review synthesizes evidence on associations between non-genetic risk factors and allopurinol-induced SCAR. METHODS: We searched MEDLINE, Scopus, Cochrane Library and Web of Science from inception to 29 June 2026 for observational studies examining non-genetic risk factors for SCAR, defined as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome, Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis, Acute Generalised Exanthematous Pustulosis, or Hypersensitivity Syndrome/Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms. Adults aged ≥ 18 years were included. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random-effects model; heterogeneity was assessed with I2. Mean differences were calculated for continuous variables. NIH Study Quality Assessment Tool was used for quality assessment of the studies. RESULTS: Twenty-six studies were included. Female sex (20 studies; 3340 SCAR cases, 562,647 controls) was associated with an increased risk of allopurinol-induced SCAR (OR 2.06; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.25-3.38). Chronic kidney disease (16 studies; 1625 SCAR cases, 553,804 controls) was also significantly associated with SCAR (OR 3.78; 95% CI 1.99-7.17). Five studies (177 SCAR cases, 1368 controls) reported higher allopurinol doses among SCAR cases than tolerant controls (mean difference 19.61 mg; 95% CI 2.97-36.24). No significant associations were observed for age or concomitant diuretic use in the primary meta-analyses. Substantial heterogeneity was observed across studies. Sensitivity analyses demonstrated consistent findings for most factors, although concomitant diuretic use became significantly associated with SCAR after exclusion of non-Asian and zero-event studies. CONCLUSION: CKD, female sex, and higher allopurinol dose were identified as significant non-genetic risk factors for allopurinol-induced SCAR. These findings support consideration of non-genetic factors alongside pharmacogenomic screening in future risk-stratification strategies. However, substantial heterogeneity and potential publication bias limit the certainty of the available evidence. Well-designed studies evaluating non-genetic predictors as primary outcomes are needed to develop robust integrated risk prediction models for clinical decision making.

Nutrikinetics and bioavailability of Promunel®, a standardized poplar-type propolis phenolic extract: a double-blinded, placebo-controlled, cross-over, randomized trial.

Brown poplar-type propolis has been recognized and used for centuries to help prevent upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs). However, the scarce, incomplete information in humans on the nutrikinetics and bioavailability of its phenolic constituents, combined with a lack of standardization in its phenolic content and profile pose major challenges to develop bioactive ingredients. Thus, the aim of this study was to establish the nutrikinetics and total bioavailability (NKBA) parameters of brown poplar-type propolis phenolics in humans using the Standardized Propolis Extract (SPE) Promunel®. To achieve this, a 48 h NBKA study was conducted following a double blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over design in healthy humans (n = 10) with two doses of SPE (1X = 400 mg or 4X = 1600 mg). Phenolic compounds were detected, identified and quantified in the extract, plasma and urine through different LC-MS/UV technologies. The SPE used is a rich (304.44 ± 15.61 µmol mg-1) and diverse source of phenolic compounds (5 sub-families). A total of 63 and 85 phenolic metabolites were identified and quantified in plasma and urine, mostly in the form of glucuronides and sulfates. In plasma, phenolic metabolites reached Cmax (1.22 ± 0.20 for 1X and 4.80 ± 0.48 µM for 4X) after 1 h of SPE intake, while urinary excretion occurred mostly during the first 3 h after. The total net bioavailability of SPE phenolic compounds at 48 h was 57.16 ± 5.71% for 1X and 43.82 ± 6.77% for 4X. Generally, the data between SPE 1X and 4X were proportional, indicating that a higher dose does not substantially modulate total net bioavailability. Overall, our data shows that brown poplar-type SPE phenolic compounds are highly bioavailable in the form of cinnamic acid and flavonoid conjugates, and that these compounds are rapidly absorbed and eliminated through the urine. Our results suggest that, for a sustained presence in circulation, brown poplar-type propolis supplements should be consumed more than once a day.

The glucagon and GLP-1 receptor dual agonist DD01 for metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease and steatohepatitis (DD01-DN-02): 12-week results from a randomised, double-blind, multicentre, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial.

BACKGROUND: Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a major public health problem arising in the context of metabolic syndrome and obesity. DD01 is a liver-targeted GLP-1 receptor and glucagon dual agonist being investigated for the treatment of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and MASH. The DD01-DN-02 trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DD01 in adults with MASLD or MASH; this initial analysis reports prespecified 12-week outcomes to assess early hepatic effects. METHODS: DD01-DN-02 is an ongoing, randomised, double-blind, multicentre, placebo-controlled, phase 2 trial conducted at 12 outpatient clinical sites in the USA. Adults aged 18-70 years with obesity or who were overweight (BMI ≥25 kg/m2) were included in the study. Patients with MASLD or MASH underwent liver biopsy and MRI-proton density fat fraction (PDFF) and were eligible if liver fat content was 10% or higher with metabolic risk factors, or if the biopsy confirmed MASH with a non-alcoholic fatty liver disease activity score of at least 4. Participants were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive once-weekly subcutaneous DD01 40 mg or matched placebo over 48 weeks, dose-escalated over 2 weeks, using a centrally administered interactive response technology system. The randomisation sequence was computer-generated by an independent statistician. Participants, investigators, study staff, outcome assessors, and the sponsor were masked to treatment assignment. The primary endpoint was the proportion of participants having at least a 30% relative reduction in liver fat by MRI-PDFF at week 12, which was analysed in all randomly assigned participants receiving at least one dose of study drug or placebo. Safety analyses included all participants who received at least one dose of study drug. Missing primary endpoint data were handled using multiple imputation under a missing-at-random assumption. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06410924) and is ongoing but closed to new participants. FINDINGS: Between June 13, 2024, and Jan 30, 2025, 67 eligible participants were enrolled, of whom 33 were randomly assigned to DD01 and 34 to placebo. The mean age of participants was 48·4 years (SD 10·6), 42 (63%) were female, 25 (37%) were male, 57 (85%) were White, and 52 (78%) participants had biopsy-confirmed MASH. At week 12, 25 (76%) of 33 participants receiving DD01 had a 30% or higher reduction in liver fat versus four (12%) of 34 participants receiving placebo (adjusted common odds ratio 28·8 [95% CI 7·2-115·2]; adjusted relative risk 6·3 [95% CI 2·5-15·9]; p<0·0001). Treatment-emergent adverse events occurred in 28 (85%) of 33 participants receiving DD01 and 23 (68%) of 34 participants receiving placebo. The most common adverse events were nausea (18 [55%] of 33 participants assigned DD01; six [18%] of 34 participants assigned placebo), diarrhoea (nine [27%] of 33; six [18%] of 34), and vomiting (ten [30%] of 33; four [12%] of 34). Treatment-emergent adverse events led to treatment discontinuation in four (12%) of 33 participants in the DD01 group and one (3%) of 34 participants in the placebo group. Two (6%) treatment-emergent serious adverse events occurred in the DD01 group (abdominal pain and acute cholecystitis) and zero in the placebo group. No deaths occurred. INTERPRETATION: In this prespecified 12-week primary analysis, DD01 produced rapid reductions in liver fat compared with placebo, supporting further evaluation in long-term studies.

Recombinant vs Standard Influenza Vaccine in Adults With Severe Obesity: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

BACKGROUND: Individuals with severe obesity are at increased risk of severe influenza and may have impaired immune responses to vaccination. Recombinant influenza vaccine (RIV) may provide enhanced protection compared with egg-based standard-dose influenza vaccine (SD), but data in this high-risk population are limited. METHODS: The AP-HP FLUO trial (NCT05409612) was an open-label, randomized clinical trial conducted in 15 centers in France (November 2022-March 2023) with 6 months of follow-up. Adults with BMI ≥35 kg/m2 were randomized 1:1 to receive RIV or SD, using minimization by center, age (<50 vs ≥50 years), and BMI (<40 vs ≥40 kg/m2). The primary outcome was the ratio (RIV/SD) of geometric mean hemagglutinin-inhibition (HAI) titers (GMTs) for 4 influenza strains 28 days after vaccination. Safety and reactogenicity were also assessed. RESULTS: A total of 206 participants were included (104 RIV, 102 SD). Median age was 50 years, 60.2% were women, and median BMI was 41.0 kg/m2. At Day 28, GMT ratios favored RIV for A/H1N1 (1.6; 95% CI, 1.1-2.3), A/H3N2 (2.0; 95% CI, 1.3-3.2), and B/Yamagata (1.3; 95% CI, 1.0-1.8), but not for B/Victoria (0.9; 95% CI, 0.6-1.3). The effect did not vary significantly across the different age and BMI groups. By Day 180, titers did not differ significantly. Reactogenicity and safety profiles were similar between groups. CONCLUSIONS: In adults with severe obesity, RIV elicited stronger short-term humoral immune responses than an egg-based standard-dose vaccine, suggesting potential additional benefit for influenza prevention in this vulnerable population.

Dealcoholized muscadine wine improved skin elasticity and oxidative stress biomarkers without affecting gut microbiome in women over 40 in a randomized controlled trial.

Muscadine wine has a unique polyphenol profile distinct from that of common wine, and limited research exists on its health benefits. This study aimed to investigate the effects of intake of dealcoholized muscadine wine (DMW) on skin health, oxidative stress, inflammatory biomarkers, and the gut microbiome. Seventeen healthy women were randomly assigned to consume 300 mL of DMW or a placebo daily for 6 weeks, separated by a 3-week washout period, in a randomized, single-blinded, crossover design. Skin health parameters were measured on the face and forearm. Oxidative stress and inflammatory biomarkers were assessed in plasma. Fecal bacterial DNA was sequenced using shotgun sequencing. DMW did not affect UVB-induced erythema compared to placebo. However, it significantly decreased transepidermal water loss and increased facial gross elasticity. Skin elasticity significantly improved on the forearm, whereas other skin parameters were not affected. DMW significantly decreased plasma levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and advanced glycation end products compared with placebo. However, the abundance, diversity, and functions of the gut microbiome were not affected. Polyphenol-rich DMW administered for six weeks improved certain skin health parameters and reduced oxidative and inflammatory stress, without affecting the gut microbiome in healthy women.

Efficacy of an Adhesive Hydrocolloid Bandage on Wound Healing: Findings of a 28-Day, Single-Centre, Randomised, Controlled Study.

This single-centre, randomised, controlled study assessed the wound healing efficacy of adhesive bandages in eligible healthy adults (N = 36) aged 25-55 with Fitzpatrick skin types II and III using a model of laser-induced wounds. Here, we report data for wounds that were randomised to treatment with either a hydrocolloid bandage for multi-day use (BAND-AID Adhesive Bandage Hydroseal), standard of care (SoC) (BAND-AID Adhesive Bandage Tru-Stay Sheer) or an uncovered control. Primary endpoints included the time to complete healing and a composite wound healing score. Hydrocolloid bandage-treated wounds healed twice as fast as the uncovered control or SoC-treated wounds. Median time (days) to complete healing was significantly faster for the hydrocolloid bandage-treated wounds (6.9) versus SoC (11.9) and uncovered control (11.8). Hydrocolloid bandage-treated wounds had significantly better composite wound healing scores versus SoC and versus uncovered control over 2 weeks. At Day 28, cosmesis was better with hydrocolloid bandage treatment (0.3) versus SoC (0.6) and uncovered control (2.1) (change from baseline in a composite scar score; higher score = worse outcome). Multi-day wound occlusion with a hydrocolloid bandage promoted faster healing and improved cosmesis compared with daily SoC dressings or uncovered control.

The incidence and descriptive factors of calcaneal malunion after surgical fixation of intra-articular calcaneal fractures using the sinus tarsi approach: A retrospective cohort study with binary logistic regression analysis.

BACKGROUND: This study evaluated the incidence of calcaneal malunion after minimally invasive sinus tarsi approach (MIS-STA) in displaced intra-articular calcaneal fractures (I-ACFs) and identified related descriptive factors of calcaneal malunion. METHODS: A retrospective review of 99 displaced I-ACFs treated with MIS-STA was conducted. Demographic data, pre-operative radiographs, and operative details were analyzed. Outcomes included numerical rating scale (NRS) pain scores at rest and during activities of daily living (ADL), Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM) for ADL and radiographic parameters. Logistic regression was used to identify descriptive factors associated with malunion. RESULTS: Malunion occurred in 33/99 cases (33.3%). The significant descriptive factors were the initial Böhler angle < 0.5 °, time to surgery > 12.5 days, and Sanders type ≥ III. Malunion patients had significantly worse NRS and FAAM scores (p ≤ 0.001). CONCLUSION: Calcaneal malunion after MIS-STA occurred in one-third of cases, with three descriptive factors identified and poorer outcomes observed. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, Comparative retrospective study with binary logistic regression analysis.

Ecological momentary assessment studies on food craving among healthy adults: A systematic review.

Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA) can capture the dynamic nature of food craving in free-living conditions, addressing limitations of laboratory and retrospective reporting methods. This systematic review synthesized findings from EMA studies to characterize 1) methodological features, 2) the temporal dynamics of food craving, and 3) the relationship between craving and eating behaviors. A systematic search of PubMed and PsycINFO databases was conducted following PRISMA guidelines. The review included 23 studies that utilized EMA designs to assess food craving repeatedly in daily life among healthy adults. Most studies employed EMA protocols that prompted participants to respond at pre-specified time points and utilized single-item craving measures. Most craving measures (71%) lacked specificity regarding the type of food craved. Results revealed a consistent positive within-person association between hunger and food craving. Conversely, associations between stress/negative affect and craving were inconsistent, varying by individual traits and context. Momentary food craving appeared to predict subsequent eating outcomes. Evidence suggested food craving may be a dynamic, transient state that co-fluctuates with hunger, functioning as a proximal antecedent to food intake. However, reliance on non-specific food craving measures and EMA protocols prompting at fixed schedules limits the granular understanding of craving mechanisms. Future research requires refining food craving measurement and incorporating randomized prompting within predefined windows, or participant-initiated sampling triggered by specific events (e.g., eating occasion), to better characterize food craving dynamics in relation to eating behaviors.

A multi-center, open-labelled, randomized controlled extended phase III non-inferiority clinical trial to evaluate the immunogenicity and tolerability of poliomyelitis vaccine (Vero cells), inactivated, Sabin strains administered with or without routine infant vaccines.

BACKGROUND: Oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) has been reported to cause vaccine-derived poliovirus and vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis, and the limited global supply of conventional IPV has led many countries to rely on fractional-dose IPV regimens alongside OPV. The current study aims to assess the sIPV safety and immunogenicity when given concurrently with or in a staggered manner with routine immunization. METHODS: A multi-country, multi-center, open-label, randomized controlled, extended phase III non-inferiority clinical trial was conducted with 1442 healthy infants aged 6-8 weeks from Bangladesh and Pakistan enrolled and randomized into four groups, i.e., co-administration group 1 (group C1), co-administration group 2 (group C2), staggered administration group 1 (group S1) and staggered administration group 2 (group S2). Antibody levels were determined using the collected sera for immunogenicity evaluation. The difference in seroconversion rates between the coadministration group and the staggered administration group is compared using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel χ2 (CMH-χ2) test, stratified by study site. Non-inferiority is concluded if the lower bound of the 95% confidence interval (CI) for the rate difference (coadministration group minus staggered administration group) is greater than -10%. The trial was registered prior to patient enrollment at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05850364), and the protocol and statistical analysis plan are available at https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT05850364. The trial is closed to new participants. FINDINGS: The post-vaccination seroconversion rates for PV I were 90.3% (306/339) in group C1 and 87.0% (261/300) in group S1, for PV II, 91.7% (311/339) in group C1 and 91.3% (274/300) in group S1 and for PV III, 86.4% (293/339) in group C1 and 92.3% (277/300) in group S1. Among adverse reactions (ARs) reported within 7 days of vaccination, the incidence was similarly high in both the co-administration and staggered vaccination groups (92.8% vs. 95.5%). INTERPRETATION: Our results demonstrated favorable safety and immunogenicity of co-administration of sIPV with other routine infant vaccines according to a 3-dose primary immunization schedule.

HSK21542 for Postoperative Analgesia in Gynecological Surgery: A Pooled Post-Hoc Analysis of Two Phase III Randomized Controlled Trials.

BACKGROUND: Effective postoperative pain management in gynecological surgery is challenging because of complex visceral-somatic pain interactions and the adverse effects of conventional analgesics. HSK21542, a novel peripherally restricted kappa-opioid receptor (KOR) agonist that selectively targets visceral pain pathways enriched with KORs, may provide adequate analgesia without systemic adverse events. METHODS: We conducted a pooled post-hoc analysis of data from two phase III, multicenter, triple-blinded, randomized controlled trials (Study 301, HSK21542 vs placebo; Study 303, HSK21542 vs tramadol vs placebo). Eligible patients undergoing elective gynecological surgery were included. The primary outcome was the summed pain-intensity difference over 12 and 24 hours (SPID 12h and SPID 24h ). Secondary outcomes were pain-relief quality (proportion of patients relieved from severe pain with a pain numerical rating score ≤ 3 between 0 and 24 hours) and rescue-analgesic requirements (number of doses and time to first rescue analgesic). Adverse events were also assessed. RESULTS: A total of 370 patients were analyzed: 150 received HSK21542, 139 received a placebo, and 81 received tramadol. After inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) adjustment, baseline characteristics were well-balanced across treatment groups (all standardized mean differences [SMD] <0.1; see Table 1 for 95% CIs). HSK21542 produced greater reductions in pain intensity over 12 and 24 hours than placebo (least-squares mean differences -8.1 and -16.3 for SPID 12h and SPID 24h , respectively. Both P < .001) and no statistically significant difference was observed between HSK21542 and tramadol ( P > .05). Significantly more patients in the HSK21542 group were relieved from severe pain at 0 to 12 hours (92.7% vs 82.7%, P < .001) and required fewer rescue doses at 0 to 12 hours (0.00 [IQR 0.00-1.00] vs 1.00 [IQR 0.00-2.00], P < .001) and 0 to 24 hours (0.00 [IQR 0.00-1.00] vs 1.00 [IQR 0.00-2.00], P < .001) than those in the placebo group, whereas no significant differences with tramadol both in 0 to 12 and 0 to 24 hours. HSK21542 was also associated with significantly lower incidences of nausea (24.7% vs 66.7%) and vomiting (21.3% vs 60.5%) than tramadol. Only one case of dizziness occurred in the tramadol group. CONCLUSIONS: HSK21542 could provide adequate postoperative analgesia with few adverse events in patients undergoing gynecological surgery.

Uncovering molecular regulatory networks of low-temperature stress response in Trachinotus ovatus via integrated transcriptome and metabolome analyses.

Golden pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) is one of the most economically important marine fish species in China. It is susceptible to low-temperature stress, which significantly challenges its production and supply. Nevertheless, study on the regulatory mechanisms underlying low-temperature stress responses in golden pompano remains limited. Here, we firstly performed a time-series transcriptome analysis to reconstruct dynamic response patterns under low-temperature stress in golden pompano. Transcriptome profiling identified common differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including fos, hlf, and hmgb1, as well as condition-specific DEGs across distinct low-temperature stress groups. Based on cluster analysis, all DEGs were classified into five distinct expression patterns, reflecting diversified regulation of expression in golden pompano during low-temperature stress. Furthermore, condition-specific regulatory modules were explored via weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), highlighting that the two module hub genes, serbf2 and lipc, might respond to low-temperature stress by regulating the lipid catabolic process. Subsequently, untargeted metabolomic analysis revealed that glycerophospholipid metabolism was a significantly enriched common pathway, highlighting its crucial role in mediating the response to low-temperature stress. Finally, by integrating transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses, a gene-metabolite interaction network associated with glycerophospholipid metabolism under low-temperature stress was established. These findings underscore the significance of multiple candidate genes and glycerophospholipid metabolism in golden pompano's response to low-temperature stress, thereby laying a solid molecular foundation for the development of low-temperature-tolerant fish strains.

Treating neurogenic detrusor overactivity in order to manage autonomic dysreflexia - A systematic review.

INTRODUCTION: Autonomic dysreflexia (AD) is a severe and potentially life-threatening complication of a spinal cord injury (SCI), particularly in patients with lesions at or above the sixth thoracic level. Neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) is one of the main triggering factors. The impact of NDO treatment on AD remains insufficiently clarified. METHODS: We conducted a systematic review of the literature in PubMed and Cochrane Database between January 1990 and May 2025. Eligible studies included patients with SCI and AD undergoing treatment for NDO, including antimuscarinics, botulinum toxin (BTX) or augmentation cystoplasty. The primary outcome was the assessment of systolic blood pressure (SBP) parameters in patients undergoing cystomanometry. RESULTS: Of the thirteen eligible studies, only five were included. No study evaluated augmentation cystoplasty. One study (12 patients) evaluating fesoterodine and four studies (95 patients) evaluating BTX injection demonstrated improved urodynamic parameters and a decrease in severity of AD during urodynamic studies and in daily life. Improvements in AD-HR-QoL and I-QoL scores were also demonstrated. DISCUSSION: Controlling NDO with fesoterodine or BTX injection reduces the prevalence and severity of AD, likely by limiting abnormal C-fiber recruitment and reducing neurogenic inflammation. BTX additionally modulates TRPV1-expressing afferents, which further reduces AD risk. Although hypertensive peaks improve, submaximal parameters remain unchanged, highlighting the need for additional complementary strategies. CONCLUSION: The use of BTX and fesoterodine for NDO treatment effectively reduces AD episodes in patients with SCI. Further long-term studies are needed to confirm the cardiovascular benefits and inform future therapeutic strategies.

Sequential laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure for inguinal hernia during NICU/GCU hospitalization in low birth weight infants.

BACKGROUND: Inguinal hernia is common in low birth weight infants and carries a risk of incarceration. Although laparoscopic percutaneous extraperitoneal closure (LPEC) is widely used in pediatric patients, the safety of sequential LPEC during NICU/GCU hospitalization remains unclear. This study evaluated the safety and feasibility of sequential LPEC during NICU/GCU hospitalization. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed infants who underwent LPEC between September 2018 and July 2024. Infants aged ≤ 6 months diagnosed with inguinal hernia and treated with sequential LPEC during hospitalization were included. For comparison, infants aged ≤ 6 months with a history of NICU/GCU hospitalization who were diagnosed with inguinal hernia after NICU/GCU discharge and underwent LPEC were identified. RESULTS: Among 302 patients, 13 met the inclusion criteria. One patient required postoperative reintubation, postoperative testicular atrophy occurred in three patients, and no hernia recurrence was observed during a median follow-up of 48 months. Compared with infants diagnosed after NICU/GCU discharge, the sequential LPEC group had significantly lower gestational age, lower birth weight, lower body weight at surgery, and more comorbidities, whereas postoperative outcomes were comparable. CONCLUSION: Sequential LPEC during continuous NICU/GCU hospitalization is feasible and can be safely performed in low birth weight infants with appropriate technical refinements.

Influence of Immediate Post-Bleaching Polishing on Enamel Color, Morphology, and Sensitivity: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

OBJECTIVE: This study evaluated the influence of polishing on enamel color change after in-office bleaching treatment on tooth morphology and sensitivity. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 50 volunteers were randomized into two groups (n = 25): in-office bleaching with 35% hydrogen peroxide gel for 45 min without polishing (GSEM) or with polishing (GP). Color analysis was performed four times, at the beginning of the starting line and immediately after the first, second, and third bleaching sessions with a spectrophotometer. A qualitative analysis of enamel morphology was performed under a scanning electron microscope. Tooth sensitivity was assessed daily using the Visual Analog Scale (α = 0.05). RESULTS: There was no statistically significant difference (p > 0.05) in tooth color change when comparing ΔE, ΔE00, and ΔWID between the groups. The enamel surface showed larger areas of irregularities and depressions in the GP group than in the GSEM group. There was no difference in tooth sensitivity (p > 0.05) between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: Polishing after whitening in the office does not change the color and sensitivity of the tooth but promotes greater changes in the morphology of the enamel, such as increased surface roughness. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Polishing immediately after teeth whitening causes greater changes in enamel surface morphology.
