    Abstract Severe preeclampsia is one of the most serious obstetric diseases. However, the pathogenesis of the disease is not fully understood. In the present study, placental artery and blood serum was collected from patients with severe preeclampsia, as well as from normal pregnant women. The results of reverse transcription-quantitative (q)PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemical staining revealed markedly decreased transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), ATP-sensitive potassium channel (KATP) subtype Kir6.1/SUR2B and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression in severe preeclampsia tissue specimens compared with those in samples from normal pregnant women. The nitrate reduction method indicated lower NO levels in the tissue specimens and serum of patients with severe preeclampsia. Moreover, hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that the endothelial cell layer in the placental artery of patients with severe preeclampsia was notably damaged. To investigate the potential role of TRPV1-KATP channels in severe preeclampsia, HUVECs were used for

    Abstract Sitosterolemia is a rare autosomal recessive hereditary disease caused by loss-of-function genetic mutations in either ATP-binding cassette subfamily G member 5 or member 8 (ABCG5 or ABCG8). Here, we investigate novel variants in ABCG5 and ABCG8 that are associated with the sitosterolemia phenotype. We describe a 32-year-old woman with hypercholesterolemia, tendon and hip xanthomas, autoimmune hemolytic anemia and macrothrombocytopenia from early life, which make us highly suspicious of the possibility of sitosterolemia. A novel homozygous variant in ABCG5 (c.1769C>A, p.S590X) was identified by genomic sequencing. We also examined the lipid profile, especially plant sterols levels, using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Functional studies, including western blotting and immunofluorescence staining, showed that the nonsense mutation ABCG5 1769C>A hinders the formation of ABCG5 and ABCG8 heterodimers and the function of transporting sterols. Our study expands the knowledge of variants in sitosterolemia and provides diagnosis and treatment recommendations.

    Abstract Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the potential application of plasma signal peptide-complement C1r/C1s, Uegf and Bmp1-epidermal growth factor domain-containing protein 1 (SCUBE-1) as a biomarker in the diagnosis of pulmonary embolism (PE).
    Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 177 patients who underwent PE diagnostic test and 87 healthy controls. The results of CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) were used as reference standards for PE diagnosis. The levels of SCUBE-1 and D-dimer in participants' plasma were detected with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and compared among patients with confirmed PE, suspicious PE and healthy controls. The diagnostic values were analysed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. In addition, differences in plasma SCUBE-1 levels were compared among patients with different risk stratifications.
    Results: The plasma SCUBE-1 concentration levels in patients with CTPA confirmed PE (14.28 ± 7.74 ng/ml) was significantly higher than those in the suspicious patients (11.11 ± 4.48 ng/ml) and in healthy control (4.40 ± 3.23 ng/ml) (P < 0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that at the cut-off of 7.789 ng/ml, SCUBE-1 has significant diagnostic value in differentiating PE patients from healthy control (AUC = 0.919, sensitivity = 81.25%, specificity = 92.13%), and the performance is more accurate than D-dimer (cut-off 273.4 ng/ml, AUC = 0.648, sensitivity = 65.75%, specificity = 67.42%). The combination of D-dimer with SCUBE-1 did not further improve the diagnostic value. However, SCUBE-1 did not show significant diagnostic value in identifying PE among suspicious patients There was no significant difference in SCUBE-1 level among different risk groups (P > 0.05).
    Conclusion: We believe that SCUBE-1 could be a potential coagulation-related marker for the diagnosis of PE.

    Abstract Background: The epidemiology and severity of asthma vary by sex and age. The diagnosis, treatment, and management of asthma in female patients are quite challenging. However, there is hitherto no comprehensive and standardized guidance for female patients with asthma.
    Methods: Corresponding search strategies were determined based on clinical concerns regarding female asthma. Search terms included "sex hormones and lung development", "sex hormone changes and asthma", "hormones and asthma immune response", "women, asthma", "children, asthma", "puberty, asthma", "menstruation, asthma", "pregnancy, asthma", "lactation, asthma", "menopause, asthma", "obesity, asthma", and "women, refractory, severe asthma". Literature was retrieved from PubMed/Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, China Biology Medicine disc, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data with the search date of July 30, 2022 as the last day. This consensus used the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation to evaluate the strength of recommendation and quality of evidence.
    Results: We collected basic research results and clinical evidence-based medical data and reviewed the effects of sex hormones, classical genetics, and epigenetics on the clinical presentation and treatment response of female patients with asthma under different environmental effects. Based on that, we formulated this expert consensus on the management of female asthma throughout the life cycle.
    Conclusions: This expert consensus on the management of asthma in women throughout the life cycle provides diagnosis, treatment, and research reference for clinical and basic medical practitioners.

    Abstract Bowel sounds (BSs) have important clinical value in the auxiliary diagnosis of digestive diseases, but due to the inconvenience of long-term monitoring and too much interference from environmental noise, they have not been well studied. Most of the current electronic stethoscopes are hard and bulky without the function of noise reduction, and their application for long-term wearable monitoring of BS in noisy clinical environments is very limited. In this paper, a flexible dual-channel digital auscultation patch with active noise reduction is designed and developed, which is wireless, wearable, and conformably attached to abdominal skin to record BS more accurately. The ambient noise can be greatly reduced through active noise reduction based on the adaptive filter. At the same time, some nonstationary noises appearing intermittently (e.g., frictional noise) can also be removed from BS by the cross validation of multichannel simultaneous acquisition. Then, two kinds of typical BS signals are taken as examples, and the feature parameters of the BS in the time domain and frequency domain are extracted through the time-frequency analysis algorithm. Furthermore, based on the short-term energy ratio between the four channels of dual patches, the two-dimensional localization of BS on the abdomen mapping plane is realized. Finally, the continuous wearable monitoring of BS for patients with postoperative ileus (POI) in the noisy ward from pre-operation (POD0) to postoperative Day 7 (POD7) was carried out. The obtained change curve of the occurrence frequency of BS provides guidance for doctors to choose a reasonable feeding time for patients after surgery and accelerate their recovery. Therefore, flexible dual-channel digital auscultation patches with active noise reduction will have promising applications in the clinical auxiliary diagnosis of digestive diseases.
