	<li>终止试验的标准<ol><li>终止在研究期间出现严重并发症或出现疾病进展的参与者。如果参与者出现严重的不良反应，则停止试验。</li>
	</ol></li>
</ol>2. 患者分组和治疗方案
<ol><li>招募20名患者，并将他们随机分配到实验组或对照组。</li>
	<li>为对照组提供控制饮食并进行常规治疗，包括补液和补充维生素（详见结果部分）。</li>
	<li>对于实验组，除常规治疗外，还进行耳膏治疗。</li>
	<li>确保两组的休息管理保持不变，直到患者出院。</li>
</ol>3. 耳膏治疗程序的准备
<ol><li>收集必要的物品（图1）：剪刀，无菌棉签，镊子，医用胶带，75%酒精和牛草种子（见 材料表）。</li>
	<li>耳膏的准备<ol><li>将胶带切成 0.6 厘米 x 0.6 厘米的正方形。</li>
		<li>取 1 或 2 颗光滑的牛草种子（B. Wang 的种子，从制药公司获得，见 材料表），并将它们放在每个胶带正方形的中心，如图 2 所示。</li>
	</ol></li>
	<li>患者准备<ol><li>指导患者以舒适的姿势坐下。</li>
		<li>检查耳朵皮肤的状况。 注意： 在进行治疗之前，请确保耳朵皮肤完好无损且没有任何异常（例如炎症、溃疡、冻伤等）。不应在耳廓创伤或炎症区域进行耳膏治疗。只有在这些异常消退且创伤愈合后才能进行。如果患者对胶带过敏，请使用替代材料。</li>
	</ol></li>
	<li>穴位的选择<ol><li>定位耳朵上的穴位/敏感区域。用一只手的拇指和食指向上捏住和抬起耳螺旋，使该区域完全暴露，从而稳定耳廓。</li>
		<li>另一只手拿着无菌拭子，轻轻探查患者的耳朵，以确定胃（CO4）、贲门（CO3）、腹部（AH8）、神门（TF4）、皮层下（AT4）和肝脏（CO12）六个耳廓点附近的敏感压力点（图3）。 注意： 敏感点是指在施加压力时与其他区域相比有明显酸痛、麻木、肿胀或疼痛的区域。与其他常见的耳穴相比，这些敏感穴位显示出更好的治疗效果7。根据先前的临床研究，六个耳穴点（CO4、CO3、AH8、TF4、AT4 和 CO12）通常用于治疗 NVP，并具有突出的止吐和镇静作用11,12,13。如果未检测到耳朵上的敏感点，则可以选择上述六个点进行后续治疗。</li>
	</ol></li>
	<li>消毒<ol><li>使用浸有酒精的棉球对操作员的手进行消毒。</li>
		<li>使用蘸有 75% 酒精的无菌棉签对患者的耳廓进行消毒。 注意： 消毒区域应覆盖目标点周围约 1-2 平方厘米的耳廓皮肤。酒精有助于去除皮肤表面的油脂，确保胶带具有更好的粘合性能。如果患者对酒精过敏，可以使用碘伏作为替代药物。</li>
	</ol></li>
</ol>4. 耳膏治疗
<ol><li>一旦该区域干燥，用一只手的拇指和食指捏住耳螺旋，将其向后和向上抬起，以稳定耳廓。</li>
	<li>使用镊子，取出准备好的耳膏（步骤3.2），将牛草的中心种子放在选定的点上， 如图4所示。与患者确认种子放置对应于敏感点或疼痛区域。</li>
	<li>将拇指和食指放在耳廓的前后，以有节奏的按压和放松运动施加适度且可忍受的压力，以刺激耳廓部位的牛草种子。在每个部位按下并松开3-5分钟，保持均匀的节奏。 注意： 根据与患者的沟通调整压力强度，确保在不过度用力的情况下感觉到酸痛、麻木、肿胀和疼痛。</li>
	<li>治疗后监测患者的整体状况 15 分钟。 注意： 如果出现恐慌、胸部不适、头晕或大量出汗，请立即撕下胶带。</li>
	<li>指导患者或其家属每天揉搓种子三次：早上、中午和晚上。 注意：强调当患者感到恶心时需要对种子进行额外刺激。</li>
	<li>三天后取下耳膏，在对侧耳朵上重复上述步骤，在两只耳朵之间交替治疗。 注意：继续治疗，直到患者符合出院标准：PUQE 评分 ≤4 且尿酮体变为阴性。如果耳膏脱落，请重新涂抹。</li>
</ol>5. 患者诊断
<ol><li>从住院第一天开始，每 2 天收集一次新鲜尿液，以测量和记录尿酮水平。注意从治疗开始到尿酮水平转为阴性的持续时间。 注：尿酮水平是评估NVP患者的重要指标。尿酮水平阳性表明持续饥饿和脱水14,15。确保及时检测尿液样本，防止酮体蒸发引起的低值。</li>
	<li>指导患者每天完成妊娠特有的呕吐和恶心量化 （PUQE） 量表（见 表 1）。每天根据他们的实际症状记录分数，直到出院当天。 注意：PUQE 量表广泛用于全球各种实践指南中，以测量患者 NVP 症状的严重程度16.PUQE 分数越高表示病情越严重。</li>
</ol>6. 术后护理
<ol><li>建议患者保持耳朵清洁和干燥。 注意： 种子贴片的放置不会干扰日常活动，例如洗涤和沐浴。</li>
	<li>提供安慰和支持，以减轻患者的紧张和恐惧。</li>
	<li>指导患者在出现恶心和呕吐时进行吞咽动作或深呼吸。</li>
	<li>如果患者在治疗过程中出现局部过敏反应，例如皮肤瘙痒、发红或渗出，请立即撕下胶带并局部涂抹抗过敏软膏以缓解这些症状。</li>
	<li>如果发生感染，应将其作为普通感染进行管理。使用外用抗生素（适用于孕妇）或消炎镇痛软膏进行治疗。</li>
	<li>监测呕吐的频率和量，评估脱水体征，并定期测量尿酮水平。 注意：如果存在影响胎儿发育和母体安全且无法有效解决的情况，请考虑终止妊娠。</li>

妊娠期恶心和呕吐 （NVP） 是一种常见的疾病，可能对孕妇的健康构成风险，甚至会导致终止妊娠的并发症。通常用于止吐/抗恶心作用的临床药物，如昂丹司琼和异丙嗪，对孕妇有潜在风险，包括肌张力障碍、镇静和降低癫痫发作阈值22.因此，药物治疗有其自身的一系列危险。另一方面，今天通常采用的以症状为中心的治疗方法缺乏特异性，有时无效23.因此，?...

妊娠期恶心和呕吐 （NVP） 很常见，不同程度地影响约 50%-80% 的孕妇1。当NVP进展到中度或重度水平时，它会增加母亲和胎儿不良妊娠结局的风险。因此，NVP 的早期干预可能有助于预防妊娠剧吐2 的发生。NVP 的确切原因在现代生物医学中尚不清楚，但据信它与怀孕期间人绒毛膜促性腺激素血清水平的变化和某些维生素3 的缺乏等因素有关。目前 NVP 的治疗方法包括禁食、输液和纠正电解质失衡，但这些方法都不被认为是可靠的4。因此，找到一种不影响胚胎或胎儿发育的有效治疗方法是一项重大的临床挑战。
耳膏疗法是一种传统的中医治疗方法，涉及使用小而圆的物体，通常是牛草的种子，刺激耳朵上的特定穴位，以预防和治疗疾病5.牛痘的干燥和成熟种子，也称为牛草，用于这种疗法，因为它们被认为可以调节血液和通道，增强血液循环，促进泌乳。耳廓（耳朵的外侧）富含神经，包含许多针灸和敏感穴位6。通过刺激这些穴位，耳朵的软组织可能产生局部无菌炎症，进而可能调节神经内分泌系统，包括垂体-肾上腺皮质和交感神经-肾上腺皮质腺。此外，这种疗法可以潜在地激活人体的非特异性免疫反应，从而产生治疗效果7.耳膏疗法通过靶向耳朵上主要调节自主神经功能障碍、减少胃肠道反应和减轻呕吐感的特定穴位来有效治疗 NVP。它还可以增加Motilin的水平，Motilin是一种促进肠道蠕动的激素8，并恢复孕妇的食欲。此外，以前的一些研究表明，耳膏疗法可能对 NVP 相关的情绪障碍产生有利影响9，因为它在缓解焦虑方面表现出与镇静剂相似的作用。
耳膏疗法是一种简单且易于管理的治疗方法。它可以与常规治疗结合使用，以缓解NVP的症状，同时将母亲和胎儿与药物使用相关的潜在风险降至最低。该协议提供了有关如何进行这种治疗以及在此过程中要考虑的事项的详细说明。我们希望耳膏治疗能够得到更多的关注，并在临床实践中得到推广和利用。

ear plaster therapy as a safe and effective treatment for gestational vomiting

妊娠期恶心和呕吐 （NVP） 是常见症状，通常使许多女性的妊娠早期复杂化。虽然禁食、输液和营养支持等临床治疗通常用于管理 NVP，但其有效性各不相同。然而，传统的耳膏疗法提供了一种很有前途的替代方案，可以有效缓解症状，并且对胚胎或胎儿的发育没有已知的风险。这种疗法以其易于应用、成本效益和良好的结果而闻名。先前的研究表明，将耳膏疗法与常规治疗相结合在缓解孕妇恶心和呕吐症状方面的有效性超过了单独使用常规治疗所取得的结果。本文介绍的方案描述了一种使用应用于特定耳点的圆形、光滑和坚硬的牛草种子来缓解NVP的方法。利用穴位按摩的原理，将这些种子轻轻擦到耳朵表面。通过刺激指定的耳穴，该程序旨在调节身体的能量流动并恢复平衡，从而降低NVP的严重程度和频率。将牛草种子涂抹在特定的耳穴上是一种简单的技术，医疗保健专业人员可以在适当的指导下轻松实施或由孕妇自行管理。总体而言，耳膏疗法提供了一种安全、有效和经济的方法来控制妊娠呕吐，为女性提供了一种潜在的解决方案，以减轻怀孕期间的不适。

这项临床研究的所有 20 名参与者都成功完成了试验。4例患者符合出院标准，第5天出院，其余16例患者符合出院标准，住院后2周内出院。
试验期间，对照组接受控制饮食和静脉滴注，包括以下成分：维生素C 2g+0.9%氯化钠注射液500 mL、维生素B6 0.2 g+0.9%氯化钠注射液500 mL、甲萘醌钾镁20 mL+5%葡萄糖注射液500 mL、氯化钾15 mL+葡萄糖注射液500 mL、0.9%氯化钠注射液500 mL、 和维生素 B1 20...

Accurate and Simple Evaluation of Vascular Anastomoses in Monochorionic Placenta using Colored Dye

The presence of placental vascular anastomoses is a conditio sine qua non for the development of twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS) and twin anemia polycythemia sequence (TAPS)1,2. Injection studies of twin placentas have shown that such anastomoses are almost invariably present in monochorionic twins and extremely rare in dichorionic twins1. Three types of anastomoses have been documented: from artery to artery, from vein to vein and from artery to vein. Arterio-venous (AV) anastomoses are unidirectional and are referred to as "deep" anastomoses since they proceed through a shared placental cotyledon, whereas arterio-arterial (AA) and veno-venous (VV) anastomoses are bi-directional and are referred to as "superficial" since they lie on the chorionic plate. Both TTTS and TAPS are caused by net imbalance of blood flow between the twins due to AV anastomoses. Blood from one twin (the donor) is pumped through an artery into the shared placental cotyledon and then drained through a vein into the circulation of the other twin (the recipient). Unless blood is pumped back from the recipient to the donor through oppositely directed deep AV anastomoses or through superficial anastomoses, an imbalance of blood volumes occurs, gradually leading to the development of TTTS or TAPS. The presence of an AA anastomosis has been shown to protect against the development of TTTS and TAPS by compensating for the circulatory imbalance caused by the uni-directional AV anastomoses1,2. 
Injection of monochorionic placentas soon after birth is a useful mean to understand the etiology of various (hematological) complications in monochorionic twins and is a required test to reach the diagnosis of TAPS2. In addition, injection of TTTS placentas treated with fetoscopic laser surgery allows identification of possible residual anastomoses3-5. This additional information is of paramount importance for all perinatologists involved in the management and care of monochorionic twins with TTTS or TAPS. Several placental injection techniques are currently being used. We provide a simple protocol to accurately evaluate the presence of (residual) vascular anastomoses using colored dye injection.

Twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome and twin anemia polycythemia sequence are two potentially devastating problems in perinatal medicine. Both disorders occur only in monochorionic twins and result from unbalanced blood flow through placental vascular anastomoses. We provide a simple protocol to accurately evaluate the presence of vascular anastomoses using colored dye injection of placental vessels after birth.

Mouse In Vivo Placental Targeted CRISPR Manipulation

The placenta is an essential organ that regulates and maintains mammalian development in utero. The placenta is responsible for the transfer of nutrients and waste between the mother and fetus and the production and delivery of growth factors and hormones. Placental genetic manipulations in mice are critical for understanding the placenta's specific role in prenatal development. Placental-specific Cre-expressing transgenic mice have varying effectiveness, and other methods for placental gene manipulation can be useful alternatives. This paper describes a technique to directly alter placental gene expression using CRISPR gene manipulation, which can be used to modify the expression of targeted genes. Using a relatively advanced surgical approach, pregnant dams undergo a laparotomy on embryonic day 12.5 (E12.5), and a CRISPR plasmid is delivered by a glass micropipette into the individual placentas. The plasmid is immediately electroporated after each injection. After dam recovery, the placentas and embryos can continue development until assessment at a later time point. The evaluation of the placenta and offspring after the use of this technique can determine the role of time-specific placental function in development. This type of manipulation will allow for a better understanding of how placental genetics and function impact fetal growth and development in multiple disease contexts.

Mouse In Vivo Placental Targeted CRISPR Manipulation

Here we describe a time-specific method to effectively manipulate critical developmental pathways in the mouse placenta in vivo. This is performed through the injection and electroporation of CRISPR plasmids into the placentas of pregnant dams on embryonic day 12.5.

Ex Vivo Perfusion of the Rodent Placenta

The placenta is a key organ during pregnancy that serves as a barrier to fetal xenobiotic exposure and mediates the exchange of nutrients for waste. An assay is described here to perfuse an isolated rat placenta and evaluate the maternal-to-fetal translocation of xenobiotics ex vivo. In addition, the evaluation of physiological processes such as fluid flow to the fetus and placental metabolism may be conducted with this methodology. This technique is suitable for evaluating maternal-to-fetal kinetics of pharmaceutical candidates or environmental contaminants. In contrast to current alternative approaches, this methodology allows the evaluation of the isolated maternal-fetal vasculature, with the systemic neural or immune involvement removed, allowing any observed changes in physiological function to be attributable to local factors within the isolated tissue.

Here is presented a protocol of ex vivo maternal-fetal vascular perfusion to enable the administration of a test article into maternal vasculature and to evaluate placental transfer of xenobiotic particles or pharmacological agents in addition to alterations in placental physiology.

A Surgical Procedure for the Administration of Drugs to the Inner Ear in a Non-Human Primate Common Marmoset (Callithrix jacchus)

Hearing research has long been facilitated by rodent models, although in some diseases, human symptoms cannot be recapitulated. The common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) is a small, easy-to-handle New World monkey which has a similar anatomy of the temporal bone, including the middle ear ossicular chains and inner ear to humans, than in comparison with that of rodents. Here, we report a reproducible, safe, and rational surgical approach to the cochlear round window niche for the drug delivery to the inner ear of the common marmoset. We adopted posterior tympanotomy, a procedure used clinically in human surgery, to avoid manipulation of the tympanic membrane that may cause conductive hearing loss. This surgical procedure did not lead to any significant hearing loss. This approach was possible due to the large bulla structure of the common marmoset, although the lateral semicircular canal and vertical portion of the facial nerve should be carefully considered. This surgical method allows us to perform the safe and accurate administration of drugs without hearing loss, which is of great importance in obtaining pre-clinical proof of concept for translational research.

Assessment of the Efficacy of An Osteopathic Treatment in Infants with Biomechanical Impairments to Suckling

Breastfeeding can be challenging for mother-infant dyads experiencing biomechanical suckling difficulties. Although lactation consultants (LCs) all over the world have increased their skills in this field and can provide support to help position the infant at the breast, the impact of their intervention might be limited in the presence of stiff structures in the infants. Here we present a protocol for a randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of osteopathic treatment, coupled with lactation consultation, for infants&#39; biomechanical suckling difficulties. It proposes a set-up and a sequence of actions to ensure an optimal context for treatment, as well as a blinding of parents and LCs to the intervention. Data such as the infant&#39;s latch ability measured with the LATCH Assessment Tool, the mother&#39;s nipple pain with a visual analog scale (VAS), and the mother&#39;s perceptions are collected by LCs four times over a 10-day period. Osteopathic lesions are documented by the osteopath, using a standardized assessment grid. Structures of interest are coherent with the anatomical zones involved in latching onto the breast. This protocol also proposes a strategy to document systematically an osteopathic profile of infants with biomechanical suckling difficulties in their first weeks of life. The implementation of this protocol confirms its feasibility for osteopathic assessment and treatment and paves the way for future trials to further explore the efficacy of osteopathic techniques for infants with biomechanical suckling difficulties.

Osteopathy is an emerging field of clinical research. Here we present a protocol to assess the efficacy of an osteopathic intervention coupled with lactation consultation, in infants with biomechanical issues impeding breastfeeding.

Virtual Prism Adaptation Therapy: Protocol for Validation in Healthy Adults

Hemispatial neglect is a common impairment after stroke. It is associated with poor functional and social outcomes. Therefore, an adequate intervention is imperative for the successful management of hemispatial neglect. However, the clinical use of various interventions is limited in real clinical practice. Prism adaptation therapy is one of the most evidence-based rehabilitation modalities to treat hemispatial neglect. To overcome any possible shortcoming that may occur with prism therapy, we developed a new system using immersive virtual reality and depth-sensing camera to create a virtual prism adaptation therapy (VPAT). To validate the VPAT system, we designed an experimental protocol investigating the behavioral errors and changes in cortical activation via the VPAT system. Cortical activation was measured by functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). The experiment consisted of four phases. All four included clicking, pointing or rest applied to right-handed healthy people. Clicking versus pointing was used for investigating the cortical region related with the gross motor task, and pointing with VPAT versus pointing without VPAT was used for investigating the cortical region associated with visuospatial perception. The preliminary results from four healthy participants showed that pointing errors by the VPAT system was similar to the conventional prism adaptation therapy. Further analysis with more participants and fNIRS data, as well as a study in patients with stroke may be required.

This experimental protocol demonstrates the use of virtual prism adaptation therapy (VPAT) in healthy adults and the association between VPAT and functional near infrared spectroscopy to determine the effect of VPAT on cortical activation. Results suggest that VPAT may be feasible and could induce similar behavioral adaptation as conventional prism adaptation therapy.

Laparoscopic Oocyte Retrieval and Cryopreservation during Vaginoplasty for Treatment of Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome

In Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser Syndrome (MRKHS) patients who are scheduled for laparoscopic vaginoplasty and have a desire for biological motherhood, we propose that a concomitant laparoscopic oocyte retrieval for cryopreservation is performed. Oocyte retrieval is pursued at the beginning of the laparoscopy. Right and left 5 mm trocars are positioned, through which a 17 G ovum aspiration needle is used for puncture of the right and left ovaries, respectively. To facilitate exposure of the follicles, the ovaries are mobilized and held with laparoscopic forceps.
When aspirating multiple follicles near each other, the needle tip is retained in the ovary to reduce the number of times that the ovarian cortex is transfixed and due to the inherent risk of bleeding. Subsequent steps are unchanged compared to the Davydov laparoscopic modified technique for vaginoplasty. Prior to surgery, controlled ovarian stimulation is performed with a gonadotropin hormone-releasing hormone (Gn-RH) antagonist protocol, and the concomitant procedure of oocyte retrieval and vaginoplasty is scheduled 36 h after the final follicular maturation trigger. Follicular fluid is collected in the same 10 mL sterile tubes used during transvaginal oocyte retrieval and transferred in a warming block (37 &#176;C) to the assisted reproduction laboratory, where mature (metaphase II) oocytes are vitrified.
In this case, a series of 23 women with MRKH, oocytes were successfully retrieved and cryopreserved in all patients; vaginoplasty was subsequently conducted without modifications, and the inpatient and outpatient postoperative care (day of urinary catheter removal, day of hospital discharge, dilator use, and comfort at follow-up) remained unaffected. One postoperative complication occurred in one patient (fever developing on day 5 post surgery and intraperitoneal fluid detection on transabdominal ultrasound) and resolved after conservative treatment. Rather than performing surgical vaginoplasty and delaying oocyte retrieval in MRKH patients, this approach combines both procedures in a single laparoscopy, thereby minimizing surgical invasiveness and anesthesiologic risks.

A dedicated team can offer Mayer-Rokitansky-Kuster-Hauser patients the option to perform controlled ovarian stimulation and oocyte cryopreservation at the time of laparoscopic vaginoplasty.

Acupuncture as a Therapeutic Intervention for Acute Gastrointestinal Injury (AGI): A Preliminary Study

Acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) is a significant factor contributing to increased mortality in patients receiving intensive care unit (ICU) care. Traditional Chinese medicine&#39;s acupuncture techniques offer an alternative&#160;approach to treating digestive disorders&#160;by controlling gastrointestinal secretion, improving gastrointestinal motility, and minimizing side effects. Transabdominal intestinal ultrasonography has proven effective in assessing gastrointestinal injury in critically ill patients. This study aims to evaluate the therapeutic effect of acupuncture in AGI patients using ultrasound. The main steps of the study include the syndrome-based selection of appropriate acupuncture points, including&#160;Hegu (LI4), Zhongwan (CV 12), Tianshu (ST 25), Zusanli (ST 36), Shangjuxu (ST 37), and Xiajuxu (ST 39), followed by a 30 min Deqi acupuncture session once a day for 1 week. The treatment&#39;s effectiveness is assessed by an experienced physician using abdominal gastrointestinal ultrasonography. This article provides a detailed account of how to standardize the use of acupuncture in treating gastrointestinal dysfunction in critically ill patients.

Surgical Treatment of Gastroparesis

Gastroparesis and intestinal dysmotility are life-altering diagnoses with no cure. Lifestyle changes, pharmacological, and surgical interventions are combined in a multidisciplinary fashion to improve the quality of life in this patient population. Starting with lifestyle changes, adjustments are made to the types and amounts of food consumed, medical conditions are optimized, and the use of narcotic pain medications as well as smoking is discontinued. For many, these changes are not enough, and antiemetics and promotility agents are used to control symptoms. Finally, when these measures fail, patients turn to surgery, which can include surgical alterations to the stomach, implantation of a gastric stimulator, placement of drainage tubes, and possibly even the complete removal of different organs, including the stomach or gallbladder. In our clinic, patients not only see a surgeon but also a gastroenterologist, dietitian, and psychologist. We strongly believe in a multidisciplinary approach to this condition. The goal is to provide patients with hope and help them live fuller and happier lives.
The study primarily addresses technical considerations and the surgical approach for patients diagnosed with gastroparesis. It outlines the entire process, starting from preparations before the surgery, encompassing the preoperative work-up, and detailing the steps involved in the surgical procedure. One of the key diagnostic challenges faced in treating gastroparesis patients is determining the underlying cause of the condition, as this information is critical for selecting the appropriate surgical intervention. Once the patient&#39;s condition has been categorized based on the cause, the medical team engages in a discussion with the patient regarding potential treatment options, which may include endoscopic procedures, minimally invasive techniques, or open surgery.
