    Yao, Guo-Liang

    World journal of surgical oncology

    2022  Volume 20, Issue 1, Page(s) 190

    Abstract: Background: Hepatopancreaticoduodenectomy (HPD) is one of the most complex procedures, and it is very rarely reported. Laparoscopic HPD (LHPD) is even rarer. To date, there are only 3 reports of LHPD for locally advanced gallbladder cancer (GBC) or ... ...

    Abstract Background: Hepatopancreaticoduodenectomy (HPD) is one of the most complex procedures, and it is very rarely reported. Laparoscopic HPD (LHPD) is even rarer. To date, there are only 3 reports of LHPD for locally advanced gallbladder cancer (GBC) or extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ECC). This is the first report of LHPD for synchronous GBC and ECC.
    Case presentation: A 75-year-old female patient complained of jaundice for 2 weeks without fever or abdominal pain. She was diagnosed with synchronous GBC and ECC. After a comprehensive preparation, she underwent a laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy and resection of hepatic segments of IVb and V, and her digestive tract reconstruction followed Child's methods. She was discharged on the 12th day postoperatively without pancreatic leakage, biliary leakage, or liver failure.
    Conclusions: LHPD is safe and feasible for selected cases of GBCs or ECCs.

    Abstract Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a serious complication of diabetes, and its progression is influenced by factors like oxidative stress, inflammation, cell death, and fibrosis. Compared to drug treatment, exercise offers a cost-effective and low-risk approach to slowing down DN progression. Through multiple ways and mechanisms, exercise helps to control blood sugar and blood pressure and reduce serum creatinine and albuminuria, thereby alleviating kidney damage. This review explores the beneficial effects of exercise on DN improvement and highlights its potential mechanisms for ameliorating DN. In-depth understanding of the role and mechanism of exercise in improving DN would pave the way for formulating safe and effective exercise programs for the treatment and prevention of DN.

  7. Article ; Online: Principles of functional neural mapping using an intracortical ultra-density microelectrode array (ultra-density MEA).

    Guo, Liang

    2020  Volume 17, Issue 3, Page(s) 36018

    Abstract Objective: Intracortical electrical neural recording using solid-state electrodes is a prevalent approach in addressing neurophysiological queries and implementing brain-computer interfacing systems. As a variety of ultra-density microelectrode arrays (ultra-density MEAs) are being created more recently, this paper answers to the rising demand for a more rigorous theory concerning this new type of neural electrode technology, both to guide the proper design and to inform the proper usage.
    Approach: This design and use problem of ultra-density MEAs for functional intracortical neuronal circuit mapping is approached from a signal analysis perspective. Starting with quantitative derivations of key basic concepts, the concept of ultra-density MEA is defined in the context for fully resolving the voltage sources within its view volume. Then, the principle of using such an ultra-density MEA for functional neural mapping is elaborated, and a recursive approach to completely resolve all voltage sources from the ultra-density MEA's recordings is proposed. This approach is further validated using a simulated experiment. Last, the limitations and implications of this work are discussed.
    Main results: MEAs can only be used to map the extracellular somatic action potential (esAP) sources in a neural microcircuit, and AP propagation along individual axons cannot be detected. The key for the ultra-density MEA design is to make sure that each spatial unit of analysis (SUA) contains no more than one active esAP source. The unique neural resolving capability of ultra-density MEAs comparing to conventional MEAs is to be able to spatiotemporally resolve each esAP source within its view volume.
    Significance: The ultimate capability and limitation of neural electrode array technology at such an unprecedented fabrication resolution is unraveled. This work strives to further the discussions on this topic into a more quantitative and rational direction, while providing a theoretical guideline for the rational development and neuroscientific application of an ultra-density MEA for intracortical functional mapping.

    Abstract Objective: This paper aims to promote understanding on the fundamental concepts and mechanisms of extracellular electrical neural recording.
    Approach: First, the electrode-electrolyte interface is reviewed to clarify some of the frequent misunderstandings. Second, analytical solutions to the extracellular field potential and recorded signal are derived based on equivalent electrical circuit models, using a planar substrate microelectrode as a particular example. And third, factors affecting the recording quality are thoroughly assessed.
    Main results: Passive neural recording electrodes function as a pure capacitor. The extracellular field potential has two phases, with its subthreshold depolarization phase proportional to the first time derivative of the membrane depolarization and its action potential phase proportional to the negative first time derivative of the intracellular action potential. The recorded signal represents a portion of the extracellular field potential with both amplitude attenuation and phase distortion according to a voltage-divider circuit formed between the recording electrode and amplifier. A larger cell, a larger cell-substrate junctional membrane area, and a tighter membrane-substrate seal all help to improve the recording quality, while the effective electrode impedance should be minimized and the effective amplifier's input impedance maximized.
    Significance: This paper develops in-depth insights to offer a clear image on the recording mechanism, nature of the signal, and interplays between key interface parameters. This work will make a foundational contribution to the field by providing such an in-depth understanding on this topic to clear the widespread ambiguities and confusions and inform rational neural electrode designs and proper interpretations of neural recordings.

    Abstract Murine Serpina3c belongs to the family of serine protease inhibitors (Serpins), clade "A" and its human homologue is SerpinA3. Serpina3c is involved in some physiological processes, including insulin secretion and adipogenesis. In the pathophysiological process, the deletion of Serpina3c leads to more severe metabolic disorders, such as aggravated non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), insulin resistance and obesity. In addition, Serpina3c can improve atherosclerosis and regulate cardiac remodeling after myocardial infarction. Many of these processes are directly or indirectly mediated by its inhibition of serine protease activity. Although its function has not been fully revealed, recent studies have shown its potential research value. Here, we aimed to summarize recent studies to provide a clearer view of the biological roles and the underlying mechanisms of Serpina3c.
