The transradial approach (TRA) is technically feasible for both diagnostic and therapeutic neurointerventions. It improves patient comfort and is not associated with increased procedural complications when compared to the transfemoral approach (TFA). To date, no studies have looked at barriers to adoption of TRA in the neurointerventionalist community. This study aims to obtain neurointerventionalist perspectives on their adoption of TRA.
Online survey distributed to neurointerventionalists.
A total of 55 neurointerventionalists, 52 of whom utilized TRA, responded to our survey. Overall, participants were not concerned about TRA's technical feasibility for diagnostic or therapeutic neurointerventions or about procedural complications. Most of our cohort adopted TRA due to its increased patient comfort and to reduce access site complications. In-institution interventionalists were strongly perceived to be the most effective method of teaching TRA when compared to other methods. Catheters and equipment issues were reported by about 30% of our cohort as a barrier to TRA adoption.
The neurointerventionalist community largely perceives TRA to be technically feasible and was not concerned about its procedural complications. In-person institutionalists are strongly perceived to be the most effective method of teaching the approach. A significant barrier to adoption seems to be related to catheters and equipment issues.

This study investigated the effects of CDDP on the pharmacokinetics of AZ and clarified its potential mechanism. The pharmacokinetic profiles of oral administration of AZ (2 mg/kg) in Sprague-Dawley rats, with or without pre-treatment of CDDP (81, 405, 810 mg/kg/d for 7 d) were investigated using UPLC-MS/MS. The main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated and compared. The MS analysis was performed in positive ionization mode. The purpose of chromatographic separation of AZ and the internal standard (IS, Valsartan) was finished on a Waters XBridge BEH C18 column (2.1 × 100 mm, 2.5 μm). The mobile phase was acetonitrile and 0.1 % formic acid-water with gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. The mRNA and protein levels of CYP2B1, CYP2C6, and CYP2C11 in the rat liver were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot, respectively. The results indicated that low, medium and high doses of CDDP significantly increased the Cmax (6.47 ± 2.28, 6.51 ± 1.99, 7.04 ± 1.31 vs. 3.30 ± 1.87) of AZ, compared with that in the AZ single-drug group (p less then 0.05). The AUC0-t of AZ (47.77 ± 23.41, 50.69 ± 25.46, 54.50 ± 11.57 vs. NB 598 26.85 ± 16.79) tended to increase in combination with CDDP. The gene and protein expression levels of CYP2B1, CYP2C6, and CYP2C11 were significantly reduced in the rat liver by CDDP. CDDP may diminish the AZ metabolism in vivo by suppressing the expression of the CYP2B1, CYP2C6, and CYP2C11 enzymes. This observation suggested the occurrence of potential interactions between CDDP and AZ when clinically administered as combination therapy, which may require adjustment of the clinical dose of AZ.Sex steroid hormones could directly affect the bone metabolism by regulating cell physiological functions. In female, it inevitably causes the abnormal levels of sex steroid hormones at post-menopause in vivo. Ovariectomized rats and mice are classic animal models of osteoporosis to better understand the action mechanism of anti-osteoporosis drugs. However, it is not clear whether Xian-Ling-Gu-Bao capsule (XLGB), a kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine prescription, treat osteoporosis via regulating multiple sex steroid hormones. In the present study, a reliable method involving ultra high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UHPLC/TQ-XS-MS) was developed for simultaneous quantitative analysis of ten sex steroid hormones (three estrogens, five androgens and two progestogens) in rat and mouse serum. The results of methodology were acceptable. The validated method was then successfully applied in the determination of the levels of sex steroid hormones in ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis rats, as well as drug (17β-estradiol and XLGB) intervened rats. As a result, XLGB could not only significantly increase the level of 17β-estradiol, but also improve the levels of progesterone, 17α-hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione. Combined with molecular docking results and pharmacokinetic parameters, psoralen, isopsoralen and sweroside were considered as the key effective components of XLGB to activate adenylyl cyclase on promoting the biosynthesis of multiple sex steroid hormones. It is the first time to evaluate the regulatory effect of kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine prescription on the levels of steroids in ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis rat, as well as the potential substance basis and mechanism of steroid hormone regulation.Glycoanalytical technology is required for a wide variety of scientific research, including basic glycobiological pharmaceutical, and biomarker research. Although several innovative analytical techniques have been developed for these purposes, quantitative glycan analysis based on electrophoretic separation, has often been impeded by the lack of cost-effective and facile sample preparation approaches. Here, we developed a rapid and facile sample preparation workflow for cost-effective glycan analysis and demonstrated its use with fully automated microchip electrophoresis (ME). Purification of 8-aminopyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonate (APTS)-labeled glycans was based on the combination of ion-pair assisted extraction (IPAE) with hydrophilic interaction chromatography-solid phase extraction (HILIC-SPE). Compared to commonly used sample preparation methods, the IPAE/HILIC-SPE method undergoes minimal nonspecific loss and undesirable degradation of N-glycans during the purification step. Furthermore, our method required only 10 min, and the entire workflow, including glycan release, labeling, and concentration processes was completed within 4 h.
