All patients will be followed up by blinded evaluators at baseline and 1, 3, 7, and 30 days after the intervention. The follow-up included postoperative complications [such as myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, renal failure, anastomotic fistula, stress ulcer, incision infection, lung infection] and adverse events.
The routinely used clinical anesthesia schemes are TIVA, TIHA and intravenous-inhalation combined anesthesia. We expect that the results of this trial will provide high-quality clinical evidence for the choice of anesthesia options for patients with type 2 DM.

Chinese Clinical Trial Registry ChiCTR2000029247, registration date 20 January 2020.This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated differences in accuracy, operation time, and radiation exposure time between robot-assisted and freehand techniques for pedicle screw insertion. Two investigators independently searched for articles on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published from 2012 to 2019. The final meta-analysis included seven RCTs. We compared the accuracy of pedicle screw placement, operation time, and radiation exposure time between robot-assisted and conventional freehand groups. selleck kinase inhibitor Seven RCTs included 540 patients and placement of 2,476 pedicle screws, of which 1,220 were inserted using the robot-assisted technique and 1,256 were inserted using the conventional freehand technique. The pedicle screw positions were classified using the Gertzbein and Robbins classification (grade A-E). The combined results of Grade A [odds ratio (OR) =1.68; 95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.82-3.44; P=0.16), Grade A+B (OR =1.70; 95% CI 0.47-6.13; P=0.42), and Grade C+D+E (OR =0.59; 95% CI 0.16-2.12assisted group had significantly shorter radiation exposure time. Regarding the pedicle screw insertion accuracy rate, the TiRobot-assisted technique was superior, the SpineAssist-assisted technique was inferior, and Renaissance was similar to the conventional freehand technique.
Pharmacological induction of autophagy can protect against acetaminophen (APAP) induced acute liver failure (ALF) by removing APAP adducts (APAP-AD), but its mechanism is not well understood. Hepatoprotective effect of saponins from traditional Chinese medicine has attracted widespread attention from all over the world. The content of saponins in
(Shanyinhua in Chinese) is up to 15-25%. Dipsacoside B (DB) is a common bioactive ingredient of different Shanyinhua, but its hepatoprotective effect and mechanism are still unknown. The present investigation aimed to study the benefit of DB in APAP-induced hepatotoxicity mouse model and different cell model.
Mice were treated with DB by intraperitoneal injection 1 h before treated with 500 mg/kg APAP, which caused ALF after 4 h. HepG2 cells were treated with DB for 1 h before treated with 10 mM APAP for 12 h. Hepatotoxicity was assessed
ALT and AST. Neuraminidase 1 (Neu1), lysosomal autophagy marker LC3 and P62 were examined by western blot. Neu1 activity AP at least in part via Neu1 inhibition, Akt/mTOR pathway is involved in the detoxification effect of DB on acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity.
These data indicate that DB alleviated hepatotoxicity caused by APAP at least in part via Neu1 inhibition, Akt/mTOR pathway is involved in the detoxification effect of DB on acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity.
The prognostic role of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in esophageal cancer (EC) patients is controversial; therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to obtain a consensus.
The PubMed, PubMed Central, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were searched. The pooled hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using fixed effect or random effect models depending on the heterogeneity.
A total of 30 articles comprising 5,122 patients were included in this meta-analysis. High levels of generalized TIL infiltration were associated with better overall survival (OS) (HR =0.67, 95% CI 0.47-0.95, P=0.02) in EC patients. High CD8+ T-cell infiltration and high CD4+ T-cell infiltration were associated with better OS (HR =0.68, 95% CI 0.60-0.78, P<0.001; HR =0.70, 95% CI 0.57-0.85, P<0.001, respectively). However, the pooled results showed that neither CD3+ nor FOXP3+ T-cell infiltration were associated with patient survival (P>0.05). Moreover, for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), high CD8+ T lymphocyte infiltration in the TN (Tumor nest) or TS (Tumor stroma) significantly predicted better OS (pooled HR =0.70, 95% CI 0.57-0.85; P=0.001; pooled HR =0.77, 95% CI 0.65-0.91; P=0.003).
High levels of generalized TILs, high CD8+ T-cell infiltration and high CD4+ T-cell infiltration have the potential to serve as prognostic markers in EC patients. Moreover, high CD8+ TIL in TNs or TS can predict better OS in ESCC patients.

Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder of the hair follicles, and has been associated with a multitude of systemic disorders and pathologies. There is increasing evidence to suggest that chronic inflammatory skin disorders may be associated with psychiatric comorbidities, however this relationship has not been well established. We aimed perform a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the association between HS and psychiatric comorbidities, suicide and substance abuse.
A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed according to PRISMA guidelines.
HS cases had a significantly higher odds of having schizophrenia compared to the control group (OR 1.66, 95% CI 1.53-1.79, P<0.00001). There was also a significant association with bipolar disorders (OR 1.96,95% CI 1.65-2.33, P<0.00001), depression (OR 1.75, 95% CI 1.44-2.13, P<0.00001), anxiety (OR 1.71, 95% CI 1.51-1.92, P<0.00001), and personality disorders (OR 1.50, 95% CI 1.18-1.92, P=0.001), suicide (OR 2.
