    Abstract Study objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is common in children with Syndromic Craniosynostosis (SC). The efficacy of Fort III procedure in managing OSA in children with SC remains a subject of ongoing debate. This study aimed to explore the efficacy of Le Fort III procedure in the management of OSA in children with SC.
    Methods: A retrospective study was performed in children with SC and OSA diagnosed by polysomnography (PSG), which was defined as an apnea and hypopnea index (AHI) ≥ 1. Patients meeting the inclusion criteria were those who underwent Le Fort III surgery and had both baseline PSG and follow-up sleep studies. Relevant clinical and demographic data were collected from all subjects who participated in the study.
    Results: Overall, forty-five OSA children with SC were identified, with a mean age of 6.8 ± 4.7 years. Twenty-five received the Le Fort III procedure and follow-up sleep studies. The Le Fort III procedure resulted in a significant reduction in AHI (6.0 [2.6, 10.1] versus 37.6 [20.9, 48.0] events/h;
    Conclusions: The Le Fort III procedure is efficacious in the treatment of OSA in children with SC. However, despite the observed improvement, residual OSA following treatment remains common.

    Abstract This study was conducted to evaluate the postsurgical stability of Le Fort I osteotomy using zygomatic buttress internal fixation alone with no piriform aperture internal fixation. Patients with maxillary retrognathia and mandibular prognathism underwent the Le Fort I osteotomy with a bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy. In group I, fixation was accomplished using titanium plate and screws placed at the piriform aperture and the zygomatic buttress (4 plates). In group II, fixation was accomplished using titanium plate and screws placed at the zygomatic buttress (2 plates). Lateral cephalometric radiographs were taken preoperatively (T1), immediately after surgery (T2), and at 6 months to 1 year (T3) to evaluate skeletal movement. In total, 32 patients were included in this study. None of the patients had wound infection, dehiscence, bone fragment instability, and long-term malocclusion. Regarding point A and the posterior nasal spine (PNS), vertical and horizontal relapse in groups I and II did not differ significantly. In most hospitals, the maxilla was fixed using four plates (piriform aperture and zygomatic buttress); however, within the limitations of the study, the choice of the number of plates for osteosynthesis following Le Fort I osteotomy and repositioning of the maxilla can be left to the discretion of the surgeon without putting the patients at risk for increased relapse by careful intraoperative management.

    Abstract Formula Le-Cao-Shi (LCS), a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has been used as folk remedy for treating hepatitis B for a long time. In our previous study, the anti-hepatitis B effects of LCS have been verified. In the present study, the anti-hepatitis B activities of LCS and its three single herbs were investigated in vitro by HepG2.2.15 cellular model, and the mechanisms against hepatitis B were deciphered via network pharmacology and gut microbiota analysis. By network pharmacology method, twelve key compounds that played a vital role in LCS were filtered from 213 ingredients. The targets RORA, CDK2, RELA, AKT1, IKBKG, PRKCβ and CASP3 were directly related to hepatitis B pathway, which indicated that LCS could exert anti-hepatitis B effect by co-regulating cell cycle and inflammatory pathways. The interactions between candidate compounds and target proteins that were directly involved in hepatitis B pathway were validated by molecular docking simulation and RT-PCR. By gut microbiota analysis, it was revealed that LCS could alter the disordered microbial composition in the infected ducks towards normal, especially the restoration of three key strains, namely Streptococcus alactolyticus, Enterococcus cecorum and Bacteroides fragilis. The above findings could provide a scientific basis for further development and utilization of LCS against hepatitis B.

    Abstract Elaborate design of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) composites with enhanced properties is of fundamental interest and practical importance in the fields of catalysis. Typical strategies are usually focused on how to increase MOFs contents while lacking architecture design for performance improvements. Herein, we first report MOFs composites with Janus structures to boost catalytic performance by Le Châtelier's principle when using wood aerogel as a versatile platform. Janus structures mean that one part of the composite is still wood aerogel while the other part is decorated with MOFs. The underoil hydrophilicity of the wood aerogels endows the Janus composites with dehydration capacity for promoting the equilibrium movement so as to boost the catalytic performance. The catalytic performance of Janus composites for the Knoevenagel reaction increases more than 40% compared with those symmetric composites. Moreover, both the final conversion and the reaction rate are much better for the Janus composites than other state-of-the-art heterogeneous ZIF-8-based catalysts. Our design is general and paves the way to exploit composites with special architecture.

    Abstract Le-Cao-Shi (LCS) has long been used as a folk traditional Chinese medicine formula against liver injuries, whereas its pharmacological mechanisms remain elusive. Our study aims to investigate the underlying mechanism of LCS in treating liver injuries via integrated network pharmacology, metabonomics, and experimental validation. By network pharmacology, 57 compounds were screened as candidate compounds based on ADME parameters from the LCS compound bank (213 compounds collected from the literature of three single herbs). According to online compound–target databases, the aforementioned candidate compounds were predicted to target 87 potential targets related to liver injuries. More than 15 pathways connected with these potential targets were considered vital pathways in collectively modulating liver injuries, which were found to be relevant to cancer, xenobiotic metabolism by cytochrome P450 enzymes, bile secretion, inflammation, and antioxidation. Metabonomics analysis by using the supernatant of the rat liver homogenate with UPLC-Q-TOF/MS demonstrated that 18 potential biomarkers could be regulated by LCS, which was closely related to linoleic acid metabolism, glutathione metabolism, cysteine and methionine metabolism, and glycerophospholipid metabolism pathways. Linoleic acid metabolism and glutathione metabolism pathways were two key common pathways in both network pharmacology and metabonomics analysis. In ELISA experiments with the CCl4-induced rat liver injury model, LCS was found to significantly reduce the levels of inflammatory parameters, decrease liver malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, and enhance the activities of hepatic antioxidant enzymes, which validated that LCS could inhibit liver injuries through anti-inflammatory property and by suppressing lipid peroxidation and improving the antioxidant defense system. Our work could provide new insights into the underlying pharmacological mechanisms of LCS against liver injuries, which is beneficial for its further investigation and modernization.

    Abstract Ethnopharmacological relevance: Formula Le-Cao-Shi (LCS) is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), which has long been used as a folk remedy against hepatitis B in China. The present study was conducted to evaluate the anti-hepatitis B effects of aqueous extract of LCS in vivo and in vitro.
    Materials and method: we investigated the anti-HBV effects of LCS in vivo and in vitro with duck hepatitis B model and HepG2.2.15 cell line model, respectively. The serologic and cellular biomarkers and the histopathological changes were examined.
    Results: By a duck hepatitis B model, the extract of LCS was found to restrain the expressions of duck hepatitis B surface antigen (DHBsAg), hepatitis B e antigen (DHBeAg), and HBV-DNA (DHBV-DNA). Moreover, LCS could decrease the levels of aspartate and alanine aminotransferases (AST and ALT) and ameliorate duck liver histological lesions. Correspondingly, in a HepG2.2.15 cellular model, LCS could also significantly inhibit the secretions of HBsAg and HBeAg.
    Conclusion: LCS exerted potent anti-hepatitis effects against the infection of HBV. The above results demonstrated the first-hand experimental evidences for the anti-hepatitis B efficiency of LCS. Our study provides a basis for further exploration and development of this promising compound prescription to treat hepatitis B disease.
