The renal artery is often involved in aortic dissection, leading to kidney ischaemia and renal dysfunction. However, some patients with aortic dissection with combined renal artery involvement do not show clinical renal dysfunction. This study aimed to analyse the relationship between renal artery involvement and renal function.

Data and images were collected from 79 patients (Group A), in Beijing Anzhen hospital between January 2015 and December 2017, who had type A aortic dissection, in order to analyse the relationship between renal artery involvement and serum creatinine. In order to further analyse the relationship between renal artery involvement and single kidney function, data from 27 patients (Group B) with aortic dissection from August 2018 to October 2018 were collected. Renal dynamic imaging was conducted, and clinical and image data were recorded.

Results showed that patients with one partially occluded renal artery had higher variance of serum creatinine after surgery compared with patients with one false-lumen renal artery (5.8±22.7 umol/L versus -18.7±22.7 umol/L; p=0.003). The glomerular filtration rate of a single kidney that had a partially occluded renal artery was lower than that of a single kidney with a normal renal artery (37.77±9.57 versus 42.73±10.54; p=0.04).

A partially occluded renal artery in aortic dissection was associated with impaired renal function after surgery, even though patients did not present high serum creatinine. More attention should be paid to those experiencing aortic dissection.

The use of certain Complementary and Alternative Medicines (CAM) in children has been documented in Spain. The main aim of this study is to estimate the knowledge, recommendations, and use of CAM by Spanish paediatricians.

A national study was conducted from June to July 2020 using an online questionnaire. Two e-mails were sent to paediatricians who were members of the Spanish Association of Paediatrics (AEP).

Out of 1414 responses received, acupuncture was considered as a science by 31.8%. Homeopathy was recommended to parents by 28.1%. CAM was used by 21.3% of physicians, at least once, to improve their own health. Only 3.8% had ever replaced a conventional treatment with CAM. The following variables were associated with a greater disposition to prescribe homeopathy female, age over 45 years old, paediatricians working in Primary Care, and paediatricians working in private healthcare.

This AEP Committee on Medicines questionnaire provides new data that should be considered alarming and should ask for a serious thinking on the use of CAM in Spain. Some paediatricians are recommending parents to give treatments not supported by scientific evidence to their children. This practice could be potentially harmful, especially when conventional treatment is being replaced.

Do embryo euploidy rates differ in the four groups of women with low prognosis as stratified by the POSEIDON criteria?

This was a retrospective cohort study of low-prognosis patients who met the POSEIDON criteria and underwent preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies (PGT-A) from January 2013 to June 2020 at the Center for Reproductive Medicine, Shandong University, China. A total of 3016 blastocysts from 1269 PGT-A cycles were included in the study. The primary outcome was the euploidy rate of the blastocysts. For each group, regression analyses were performed to quantitatively describe the relationship between maternal age and embryo euploidy rate.

The euploidy rate of embryos in women with poor ovarian response (POR) was 39.1% in total. There were 727, 1052, 275 and 962 blastocysts in groups 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively, with corresponding embryo euploidy rates of 57.2%, 34.9%, 52.4% and 26.2% (P < 0.001). Within each group, the euploidy rate decreased with age, especially in women aged 35 years or older (i.e. groups 2 and 4).

Euploidy rates were more favourable in groups 1 and 3, of a young age, re-emphasizing that oocyte quality is the primary factor determining embryo euploidy rate. The study's findings demonstrated the reasonability of categorizing women with POR by the POSEIDON criteria depending on female age and ovarian reserve biomarkers. These results also provide information for women with POR in different subgroups so they can receive proper counselling on the possible prognosis.

What is the efficacy of sequential two-dimensional transvaginal ultrasound (2D-US) and hysterosalpingo-foam sonography (HyFoSy) after methotrexate (MTX) treatment for tubal pregnancy among patients who desire a future pregnancy?

A prospective trial conducted between May 2019 and November 2020. Patients who had a suspected tubal ectopic pregnancy diagnosed by ultrasound and treated by MTX were included. These patients underwent sequential transvaginal 2D-US assessment of the pelvic organs and a complementary HyFoSy for tubal patency. The primary outcome was tubal obstruction in the affected side.

A total of 360 women underwent sequential transvaginal 2D-US assessment of the pelvic organs and a complementary HyFoSy for tubal patency. Of these, 40 (11.1%) women fulfilling the inclusion criteria were enrolled. In six out of 40 (15%), hydrosalpinx of the affected tube was found during the initial transvaginal ultrasound examination and were excluded from further investigation. In the remaining 34 (85%) patients, HyFoSy was carried out. Emricasan Tubal block was found in 10 out of 34 (29.4%) patients. Of these, eight out of 34 (23.5%) and two out of 34 (5.9%) had a proximal block of the affected tube and bilateral proximal obstruction, respectively. Hysterosalpingography confirmed the tubal obstruction in all the affected cases. No procedure-related complications were documented.

Forty per cent of women who were treated by MTX for tubal pregnancy were diagnosed with tubal obstruction. We recommend that sequential transvaginal ultrasound and HyFoSy become part of routine follow-up for these women, thus offering them timely referral to the appropriate specialist.

Does the absence of GRIM19 affect pyroptosis of macrophages? Is the release of IL-1β caused by pyroptosis a relevant factor in the regulation of adenomyosis progression?

Endometrial tissues were collected from patients with (n = 12) and without (n = 12) adenomyosis. GRIM19 expression of adenomyosis tissues was analysed by western blot and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). In GRIM19 knockdown macrophages, pyroptosis-related factors expressions were also measured by western blot and RT-PCR. The human endometrial stromal cells (HESC) were co-cultured with GRIM19-depleted macrophages and IL-1β neutralizing antibody to detect the effects of pyroptosis of macrophages on apoptosis, proliferation and migration of HESC.

The expression of GRIM19 was significantly lower in adenomyosis (P = 0.0002). In THP-1-derived macrophages, the expression of NLRP3 (P < 0.0001), ASC (P = 0.0176), caspase-1 (P = 0.0368), GSDMD (P = 0.0453) and IL-1β (P = 0.0208) are increased after downregulation of GRIM19. GRIM19 knockdown induced the release of IL-1β (P = 0.0195) in THP-1-derived macrophages. The apoptosis of HESC co-cultured with GRIM19 knockdown macrophages was significantly inhibited (P < 0.0001), the proliferation (P = 0.0254) and migration (P < 0.0001) were markedly promoted. Existence of IL-1β neutralizing antibody in supernatants recovered the effects (P < 0.0001) of GRIM19 knockdown macrophages on HESC.

GRIM19 downregulation induces pyroptosis of macrophages through NLRP3 pathway, increases the secretion of IL-1β and promotes adenomyosis progression.

To determine the dose of phenylephrine, norepinephrine and dopamine necessary to maintain mean arterial pressure (MAP) within 70-80 mmHg during administration of isoflurane, isoflurane and vatinoxan and isoflurane, vatinoxan and dexmedetomidine at three plasma concentrations.

Randomized crossover experimental study.

A group of five adult healthy neutered male cats.

Instrumentation occurred during anesthesia with isoflurane in oxygen. Isoflurane end-tidal concentration was set to 1.25× minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). Phenylephrine, norepinephrine or dopamine was administered to maintain MAP 70-80 mmHg. A target-controlled infusion system was used to administer vatinoxan at a target plasma concentration of 1 μg mL
and three dexmedetomidine concentrations (5, 10 and 20 ng mL
). Isoflurane concentration was altered to maintain an equivalent 1.25 MAC. Heart rate, arterial blood pressure, central venous pressure, pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary artery occlusion pressure, body temperature, arterane-anesthetized cats administered dexmedetomidine and vatinoxan.Frostbites are cold tissue damages frequently observed at high altitudes and under extremely cold conditions. Though their incidence rate is low, the resulting impact in affected patients can be very serious, often leading to amputations. Clinical management and the prediction of outcome can be of utmost importance to frostbite patients. A possible use of stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) has been suggested for cutaneous wound healing and we, therefore, tested their use for the treatment of deep frostbite wound. To this end, the impacts of hHPC-derived EVs were evaluated in an in vivo animal model comprising of Kunming female mice as well as studied in vitro for the mechanism. We first characterized the EVs and these hHPC-derived EVs, when applied to treat frostbite wounds, accelerated wound healing in the in vivo animal model, as assessed by wound closure, re-epithelization thickness, collagen density and the expression of Collagen I and α-SMA. The proliferation and migration of human skin fibroblasts was also found to be increased by EVs in the in vitro experiments.
