Study of the value of SPECT lung perfusion imaging in optimizing lung cancer radiotherapy plan for lung function protection / 中华放射肿瘤学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the application value of SPECT lung perfusion imaging in guiding radiotherapy path, optimizing the radiotherapy plan for lung cancer and protecting lung function during radiotherapy for locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer.Methods:In this study, 84 patients with stage Ⅲ non-resectable non-small cell lung cancer were randomly divided into the control group ( n=44) and observation group ( n=40). In the control group, radiotherapy plan based on conventional CT images was delivered, and two plans based on the lung function information suggested by conventional CT and SPECT lung perfusion imaging: P1 and P2 were given in the observation group. All patients in the observation group were finally treated according to the P2 plan. The incidence of radiation pneumonitis, and changes in lung function before and after radiotherapy were statistically compared between two groups. The dose-volume parameters of P1 and P2 were statistically compared. Results:After the plan was optimized, the incidence of radiation pneumonitis in the observation group was significantly reduced and the decline of lung function was significantly improved (both P≤0.001). The functional dose parameters were significantly improved in the P2 plans (both P<0.05), whereas the irradiation dose of organs at risk did not significantly change ( P>0.05). Conclusion:SPECT lung perfusion imaging optimizes the intensity-modulated radiotherapy plan, which can reduce the functional lung dose and increase the tumor radiotherapy dose without increasing the irradiation dose of other organs at risk.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of mini-hook locking plate fixation for the treatment of avulsion intra-articular fractures of the metacarpophalangeal joint.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 13 patients with avulsion intra-articular fractures of the metacarpophalangeal joint admitted to Beijing Luhe Hospital of Capital Medical University from June 2016 to December 2017. There were nine males and four females, aged 22-61 years [(46.0±1.3)years]. All patients had closed fracture. According to Pechlaner classification, there were 5 patients with Grade A1 and 8 patients with Grade B1. All fractures were treated with open reduction and mini-hook locking plate internal fixation. Operation time, intraoperative blood loss, internal fixation position and bone healing time were recorded. The target joint range of motion (ROM) and grip strength were compared with the contralateral side two months after operation. Hand function was evaluated by total active motion (ATM). Visual analogue scale (VAS) was evaluated before operation two months after operation. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded.Results:All the patients were followed up for 9-19 months [(11.3±1.1)months]. The operation lasted for 20-30 minutes [(25.5±1.3)minutes], with blood loss of 5-10 ml [(5.5±1.3)ml]. After operation, anatomical reduction was achieved in all patients and position of implant placement was suitable. Bone healing time was 4-8 weeks [(4.7±0.3)weeks] for all fractures. There were no significant differences in the target joint ROM compared with the contralateral side two months after operation ( P>0.05). ATM was excellent in 11 patients and good in 2, with excellent rate of 100%. VAS was significantly decreased from preoperative (5.9±1.1)points to (0.5±0.1)points two months after operation ( P<0.05). No internal fixation failure or wound infection occurred after operation. Conclusion:For avulsion intra-articular fractures of the metacarpophalangeal joint, mini-hook locking plate internal fixation has advantages of shortened operation time, rigid internal fixation after anatomical reduction, shortened bone healing time, fast recovery of hand function, obvious pain relief and few complications, which provides a treatment alternative for clinics.

Effect of SOX7 promoter methylation on proliferation and apoptosis of bladder cancer / 医学研究生学报

Objective　The SOX7 gene plays a tumor-suppressive role in a variety of tumors, but there are few reports on whether it plays a role in bladder cancer. This study aims to investigate the expression of SOX7 gene in bladder cancer as well as to investigate the regulation and significance of SOX7 promoter methylation on bladder cancer.　Methods　GEPIA, Oncomine, MethHC, and cBioPortal databases were used to speculate the SOX7 expression and promoter methylation in bladder cancer tissues. 40 urine samples were collected from January 2017 to October 2017 in the Department of Urology, Tenth People's Hospital of Shanghai City, including 20 samples from bladder cancer patients and the rest 20 from regular patients as a control group. The methylation difference of SOX7 gene was detected by methylation-specific PCR. The bladder cancer cell line was cultured. The medium containing the methylated drug 5-aza-2’ deoxycytidine (5-aza-dc) was added to the Taza cells as the 5-aza-dc group, while T24 cells were added the same volume of DMSO as the control group. The bladder cancer cell line was transfected with the SOX7 plasmid as the plasmid group, and the transfected with the unloaded plasmid was the empty group. Western blot was used to detect the expression of SOX7 in bladder cancer cell lines, and the proliferation, clone formation, and apoptosis of bladder cancer cells after demethylation were detected by CCK-8 experiments, plate cloning experiments, and flow cytometry, respectively.　Results　The level of methylation in bladder cancer was significantly higher than that in healthy tissues (P<0.005). The higher levels of SOX7 methylation were observed in the urine of 15 bladder cancer patients (75%), compared with only 7 patients (35%) in normal urine, and the proportion was statistically different (P<0.05). The expression of SOX7 protein in the 5-aza-dc group was up-regulated compared to the control group. The expression of SOX7 protein was relatively high when the concentration reached 20 μmol/L. The expression of SOX7 protein in the plasmid group was significantly higher than that in the unloaded group. CCK-8 results showed that the A value of the 5-aza-dc group was statistically lower than that of the control group on the fifth day (P<0.05), and the A value of T24 cells in the plasmid group was significantly lower than that in the unloaded group. The colony formation experiment showed that the number of colony formation per well in the 5-aza-dc group (167.33 ± 13.65) was significantly lower than that in the control group (328.00 ± 20.81) (P<0.05). The number of clone formation per well in the plasmid group (136.00 ± 15.00) was significantly lower than that in the unloaded group (280.67 ± 13.43) (P<0.05). The apoptosis rate of T24 cells in the 5-aza-dc group (27.89%) was significantly higher than that of the control group (3.79%) (P<0.05), and the apoptosis rate of the plasmid group (21.28%) was higher than that of the no-load group (9.90%).　Conclusion　SOX7 is lowly expressed in bladder cancer, which is regulated by promoter methylation. It is a potential biological marker of bladder cancer and plays a vital role in the occurrence and development of bladder cancer.

Persistently Upregulated Hippocampal mTOR Signals Mediated by Fecal SCFAs Impair Memory in Male Pups with SMM Exposure in Utero / 生物医学与环境科学（英文）

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the molecular mechanisms of the adverse effects of exposure to sulfamonomethoxin (SMM) in pregnancy on the neurobehavioral development of male offspring.@*METHODS@#Pregnant mice were randomly divided into four groups: control- (normal saline), low- [10 mg/(kg•day)], middle- [50 mg/(kg•day)], and high-dose [200 mg/(kg•day)] groups, which received SMM by gavage daily during gestational days 1-18. We measured the levels of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in feces from dams and male pups. Furthermore, we analyzed the mRNA and protein levels of genes involved in the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) pathway in the hippocampus of male pups by RT-PCR or Western blotting.@*RESULTS@#Fecal SCFA concentrations were significantly decreased in dams. Moreover, the production of individual fecal SCFAs was unbalanced, with a tendency for an increased level of total fecal SCFAs in male pups on postnatal day (PND) 22 and 56. Furthermore, the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3k)/protein kinase B (AKT)/mTOR or mTOR/ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (S6K1)/4EBP1 signaling pathway was continuously upregulated until PND 56 in male offspring. In addition, the expression of Sepiapterin Reductase (SPR), a potential target of mTOR, was inhibited.@*CONCLUSION@#In utero exposure to SMM, persistent upregulation of the hippocampal mTOR pathway related to dysfunction of the gut (SCFA)-brain axis may contribute to cognitive deficits in male offspring.

Comparison of effects of equivalent analgesic dose of sufentanil, fentanyl and dezocine on consciousness index and their adverse reactions / 实用医学杂志

Objective To compare the effects of the equivalent analgesic doses of sufentanil, fentanyl and dizosin on index of consciousness (IoC) and their adverse reactions. Methods Eighty patients undergoing painless gastroenteroscopy, aged 18～60 years, ASA grade Ⅰ to Ⅱ, were selected. The patients were randomly divided into control group (group C) , sufentanil group (group S) , fentanyl group (group F) , and dizosin group (group D) , with 20 cases in each group. Sufentanil 0.1～0.2 μg/kg, fentanyl 1～2μg/kg and dizocine 0.1～0.2 mg/kg were intravenously injected in group S, F and D respectively. Group C was given saline of equal volume, and then propofol 2～2.5 mg/kg was intravenously injected until consciousness disappeared.Intravenous infusion of propofol50～100 g/ (kg · min) maintained anesthesia. Heart rate, blood pressure, IoC and perioperative adverse events were recorded. Results There was no significant difference in operative time and recovery time among the 4 groups (P> 0.05). Compared with those in group C, the values of IoC at T2, TS, T4 and T5 in group S and F increased significantly (P < 0.05) , and the correlation coefficient between OAA/S and IoC was 0.872 (P < 0.05). Compared with that in group C, the incidence of nausea and vomiting was higher in group D, and the incidence of injection pain was significantly lower in group S, F and D (P < 0.05). Conclusion Compared with propofol alone, opioids used in painless gastrointestinal endoscopy anesthesia lead to loss of consciousness and increase of IoC value at recovery time, but have no significant effect on recovery time.

Objective To analyze the impact of dual energy monochromatic reconstructions (50-160 keV) on coronary calcified plaque stenosis quantification in a cardiac phantom with the real stenosis as standard of reference.Methods Signal-to-noise(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratios(CNR)were calculated. In conventional 120 kV coronary CT angiography (CCTA) images as well as 12 monochromatic series(50-160 keV),luminal narrowing of calcified plaque was measured and compared to the real stenosis. Bland-Altman plots were performed to analyze the correlation of reference standard with conventional 120 kV and 12 monochromatic series (50-160 keV). The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CCTA for detection of≥50% stenosis were calculated and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was analyzed with the real stenosis as reference standard.Results The SNR and CNR were decreased with the increase of keV from 70 keV.The SNR and CNR of monochromatic imaging were lower compared with conventional 120 kV images(SNR:76.4±16.1;CNR:274.7±54.1)(P<0.05).The Bland-Altman plots presented a smaller measurement bias towards 90-160 keV than conventional 120 kV, and smallest measurement bias was revealed in 100-130 keV imaging(100-130 keV:bias 17.2% vs 120 kV:21.4%).Using the stenosis≥50% as cut-off value, the specificity were higher in the monochromatic series (70-160 keV) than conventional 120 kV CCTA.The specificity(75.0%)were the highest in the 120 keV and 130 keV images.The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of 90-130 keV(0.991-0.995)was higher than that in conventional 120 kV imaging (0.990). Conclusions The use of monochromatic imaging improves the overall accuracy of stenosis evaluation in coronary calcified plaques. Reconstructions at 100-130 keV for calcified lesions yielded the optimal results.
