    Abstract Purpose: Numerous modifications laparoscopic techniques have mushroomed in recent years. Here we describe a modified technique of extracorporeal ligation of processus vaginalis in children using a hernia crochet needle with a cannula.
    Methods: Processus vaginalis repair was carried out on patients diagnosed with inguinal hernia or hydroceles using this novel technique between June 2021 and June 2022. The processus vaginalis was closed extracorporeally using a hernia crochet needle with a cannula. In the presence of patent processus vaginalis, the same procedure would be performed on the contralateral side. The primary outcomes was the safety and efficiency of this modified procedure, and the secondary outcomes was the post operative complications.
    Results: A total of 212 (165 inguinal hernia and 47 hydroceles) children were corrected by this novel technique. The mean operation time was 27.49 min for unilateral inguinal hernia cases and 36.55 min for bilateral cases. The unilateral hydrocele median operation time was 27.83 min and that for the bilateral cases was 37.30 min. During the mean of 10.92 months of follow-up, there was only a boy subject to a metachronous contralateral occurrence of hernia 10 months after surgery, and no other complications (knot reactions, testicular atrophy, postoperative hydrocele or iatrogenic) have been observed yet.
    Conclusion: This study shown a unique procedure with using a hernia crochet needle with a cannula to be simple, safe, and effective in managing inguinal hernias and hydroceles in the pediatric population.

    Abstract C-H/N-H cross-coupling has become a key technology for the selective conjugation of azole drug molecules. However, the development of new synthetic models and green chemical methods is imperative to enhance the construction of multi-functional compounds and compounds with unique functional groups. We herein reported an electrochemical synthesis of α-tetrazolyl ketones with excellent yields and broad substrate scope, encompassing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups of aryl ketones, heterocycles, and alkyl and various ketone drugs. It was further proved that α-iodoketone was involved in this transformation of the reaction as a critical intermediate.

    Abstract The effects of natural organic matter (NOM) types and electrolyte ions are crucial to the aggregation of ferrihydrite nanoparticles (Fh NPs) in the environment. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) was employed for the aggregation kinetics of Fh NPs (10 mg/L as Fe) in the present study. The critical coagulation concentration (CCC) values of Fh NPs aggregation in NaCl were obtained in the presence of 15 mg C/L NOM as SRHA (857.4 mM) > PPHA (752.3 mM) > SRFA > (420.1 mM) > ESHA (141.0 mM) > NOM-free (125.3 mM), indicating Fh NPs aggregation was inhibited as the above order.

    Abstract Background: Chestnut (Castanea mollissima) shell is rich in flavonoids and our previous studies showed that proanthocyanins and anthocyanins were the two markedly varied flavonoids in chestnut shell extracts (CSE) during digestion. Here, the biotransformation of proanthocyanins and anthocyanins in a simulated gastrointestinal model, and the interactions between non-absorption CSE (NACSE) and gut microbiota in vitro, were investigated by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography combined with triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry and 16S rRNA sequencing.
    Results: Chestnut shell was richer in proanthocyanins and anthocyanins, while the loss of proanthocyanins was greater after digestion. Additionally, the content of anthocyanin decreased after gastric digestion but increased after intestinal digestion and remained stable after fermentation. After fermentation, delphinidin-3-O-sambubioside and pelargonidin-3-O-galactoside were newly formed. Furthermore, microbiome profiling indicated that NACSE promoted the proliferation of beneficial bacteria, while inhibiting pathogenic bacteria.
    Conclusion: All these data suggest that CSE may be a promising candidate to protect gut health. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

    Abstract Berberine was used as the lead compound in the present study to design and synthesize novel berberine derivatives by splicing bromine bridges of different berberine carbon chain lengths coupled nitric oxide donors, and their lipid lowering activities were assessed in a variety of ways. This experiment synthesized 17 new berberine nitric oxide donor derivatives. Compared with berberine hydrochloride, most of the compounds exhibited certain glycerate inhibitory activity, and compounds 6a, 6b, 6d, 12b and 12d showed higher inhibitory activity than berberine, with 6a, 6b and 6d having significant inhibitory activity. In addition, compound 6a linked to furazolidone nitric oxide donor showed better NO release in experiments; In further mechanistic studies, we screened and got two proteins, PCSK9 and ACLY, and docked two proteins with 17 compounds, and found that most of the compounds bound better with ATP citrate lyase (ACLY), among which there may be a strong interaction between compound 6a and ACLY, and the interaction force was better than the target drug Bempedoic Acid, which meaning that 6a may exert hypolipidemic effects by inhibiting ACLY; moreover, we also found that 6a may had the better performance in gastrointestinal absorption, blood-brain barrier permeability, Egan, Muegge class drug principle model calculation and bioavailability.

    Abstract Abstract Background In 2021, China had a population of 264·01 million individuals over the age of 60, indicating a high prevalence of chronic diseases. Among older adults, physical inactivity (PI) is a significant risk factor for chronic diseases. However, few studies have been conducted on the correlation of physical activity (PA) with the economic status, geography and chronic disease risks in Chinese elderly. The objectives of this study were to better understand the distribution of PA among older adults in China and its relationship with economic status, geography, and chronic disease risks. Methods This study utilized data from the China Longitudinal Aging Social Survey (CLASS) in 2020, post-COVID-19. The study employed a stratified, multistage, probabilistic sampling approach and included 11,396 adults over the age of 59 from 28 provinces in China. Data on demographics, the duration and intensity of PA, history of diseases and personalized factors influencing PA were collected via structured interviews by researchers. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive analysis, employing a range of statistical methods including descriptive analysis, Wilcoxon rank-sum tests, Bayesian networks, and chi-square tests. Results The prevalence of PI among older adults over 59 in China is 28·82%. Significant regional differences were observed in the duration of PA at different intensities. Older adults residing in more economically developed areas were more likely to engage in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and exhibited longer sedentary behavior. Economic status and urban-rural disparities consistently emerged as direct influential factors across all intensity types. Chronic disease risks were significantly lower in active older adults compared to inactive ones. Lack of social guidance, family support, and personal inclination towards sedentary behavior were the main personalized factors affecting PA among older adults, and these factors could be relatively easily modified. Conclusions Economic status, ...

    Abstract Adropin, a secreted protein, coded by energy homeostasis-associated gene (Enho), is recently reported to modulate atherogenesis, with endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) involved in the early process. We explored whether adropin may alleviate atherosclerosis by regulating EndMT. We found that an intraperitoneal injection of adropin [105 μg/(kg·d) for 13 weeks] inhibited the progression of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced aortic atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice (ApoE
