ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the impact of early intervention with Yishen Huazhuo prescription (YHP) on the learning and memory of accelerated aging model mice, as well as its underlying mechanism. MethodForty-eight 3-month-old male SAMP8 mice were randomly assigned into four groups, including the model group, low-dose YHP group, high-dose YHP group, and donepezil group. Additionally, 24 SAMR1 mice of the same age were divided into a control group and a YHP treatment control group, each consisting of 12 mice. The YHP groups received YHP at doses of 6.24 g·kg-1 and 12.48 g·kg-1, while the donepezil group was treated with donepezil at a dose of 0.65 mg·kg-1. The model group and control groups were given physiological saline. The mice were gavaged once daily for a duration of four weeks. Spatial learning and memory abilities of mice were assessed using the Morris water maze test. Immunofluorescence staining was employed to evaluate neuronal density as well as expression levels of M1 microglial (MG) polarization marker inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and M2 MG polarization marker arginase-1 (Arg-1) in the hippocampus region. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure serum levels of pro-inflammatory factor interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and anti-inflammatory factor transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). Furthermore, Western blot analysis was conducted to determine expressions of amyloid β peptide1-42 (Aβ1-42) along with triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2)/nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway-related proteins TREM2, phospho (p)-NF-κB p65, and phospho-inhibitory kappa B kinase β (IKKβ) in the hippocampus. ResultCompared with the control group, the model group exhibited a significantly prolonged escape latency (P<0.01), a significant reduction in neuron-specific nuclear protein (NeuN) expression in the hippocampus, a significant increase in iNOS expression in MG, and a significant decrease in Arg-1 expression. The serum IL-1β content was significantly increased, while the TGF-β1 content was significantly decreased. Additionally, there was a significant decrease in TREM2 expression in the hippocampus and significant increases in p-NF-κB p65, p-IKKβ, and Aβ1-42 expressions (P<0.05, P<0.01). However, no significant changes were observed in escape latency, times of crossing the platform, and hippocampal NeuN expression in the YHP treatment control group. Conversely, iNOS expression in MG as well as the hippocampal p-NF-κB p65, p-IKKβ, and Aβ1-42 expressions were significantly decreased. Furthermore, TREM2 expression was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). In comparison to the model group, the low-dose YHP group showed a significantly shortened escape latency and an increased number of crossing the platform (P<0.05, P<0.01). In the high-dose YHP group, the escape latency was significantly shortened (P<0.05). In the low-dose YHP group, high-dose YHP group, the expression of NeuN in the hippocampus was significantly increased, the expression of iNOS in MG was significantly decreased, and the expression of Arg-l was significantly increased. The serum IL-1β content was significantly decreased, while the TGF-β1 content was significantly increased. Furthermore, the expression of TREM2 in the hippocampus was significantly increased, and the expressions of p-NF-κB p65, p-IKKβ, and Aβ1-42 were significantly decreased (P<0.01). ConclusionEarly YHP intervention may promote the transformation of hippocampal MG from M1 to M2 by regulating the TREM2/NF-κB signaling pathway, reduce the release of neuroinflammatory factors, protect hippocampal neurons, and reduce the deposition of Aβ1-42, and finally delay the occurrence of learning and memory decline in SAMP8 mice.

ABSTRACT

Professor ZHANG Boli believed that the core pathogenesis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is weak pulse at yang and wiry pulse at yin. By referring to the theory of “damp-turbidity and phlegm-rheum type of diseases”, he proposed that yin pathogens of damp-turbidity and phlegm-rheum may damage yang qi in each stage of HFpEF, thus aggravating the trend of weak pulse at yang and wiry pulse at yin, which played an important role in the deterioration of HFpEF. Therefore, Professor ZHANG Boli advocated that importance should be attached to the elimination of yin pathogen and the protection of yang qi during the various stages of HFpEF in order to delay the aggravation of weak pulse at yang and wiry pulse at yin; he put forward the idea of staged treatment that “yin pathogen should be dispelled and yang qi should be demonstrated”; and he formulated the treatment strategy of treating the disease as early as possible, eliminating pathogens and protecting yang, interrupting the disease trend, using warm-like medicinals, and activating blood circulation, to enrich the theoretical system of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of HFpEF.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To assess the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of high-dose dual therapy compared with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for treating Helicobacter pylori(H.pylori) infection in servicemen patients. Methods: A total of 160 H. pylori-infected, treatment-naive servicemen, including 74 men and 86 women, aged from 20 years to 74 years, with a mean (SD) age of 43 (13) years, tested in the First Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from March 2022 to May 2022 were enrolled in this open-label, randomized controlled clinical trial. Patients were randomly allocated into 2 groups: the 14-day high-dose dual therapy group and the bismuth-containing quadruple therapy group. Eradication rates, adverse events, patient compliance, and drug costs were compared between the two groups. The t-test was used for continuous variables, and the Chi-square test for categorical variables. Results: No significant difference in H. pylori eradication rates were found between high-dose dual therapy and bismuth-containing quadruple therapy by ITT, mITT and PP analysis[ITT:90.0% (95%CI 81.2%-95.6%) vs. 87.5% (95%CI 78.2%-93.8%), χ2=0.25, P=0.617;mITT:93.5% (95%CI 85.5%-97.9%) vs. 93.3% (95%CI 85.1%-97.8%), χ2<0.01, P=1.000; PP: 93.5% (95%CI 85.5%-97.9%) vs. 94.5% (95%CI 86.6%-98.5%), χ2<0.01, P=1.000 ]. The dual therapy group exhibited significantly less overall side effects compared with the quadruple therapy group [21.8% (17/78) vs. 38.5% (30/78), χ2=5.15,P=0.023]. There were no significant differences in the compliance rates between the two groups [98.7%(77/78) vs. 94.9%(74/78), χ2=0.83,P=0.363]. The cost of medications in the dual therapy was 32.0% lower compared with that in the quadruple therapy (472.10 RMB vs. 693.94 RMB). Conclusions: The dual regimen has a favorable effect on the eradication of H. pylori infection in servicemen patients. Based on the ITT analysis, the eradication rate of the dual regimen is grade B (90%, good). Additionally, it exhibited a lower incidence of adverse events, better compliance and significantly reduced cost. The dual regimen is expected to be a new choice for the first-line treatment of H. pylori infection in servicemen but needs further evaluation.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the value of inflammation,coagulation and nutrition markers in predicting the failure of prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation for treatment of periprosthetic joint infection(PJI). Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on 70 patients who undertook prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation due to PJI from June 2016 to October 2020 in the Department of Orthopedics,Henan Provincial People's Hospital. There were 28 males and 42 females,aged (65.5±11.9) years (range: 37 to 88 years). Patients were divided into two groups as the successful group and the failed group depended on whether reinfection occurred after prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation at the last follow up. Patient demographics,laboratory values (C-reactive protein (CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR),ESR and CRP ratio (ESR/CRP),white blood cell count(WBC),platelet count(PLT),hemoglobin(HB),total lymphocyte count(TLC),albumin、fibrinogen(FIB),CRP and albumin ratio (CAR),prognostic nutritional index(PNI)),and reinfection rates were assessed. Comparison between groups was conducted by the independent sample t test or χ2 test. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted,and the area under the curve (AUC),optimal diagnostic threshold,sensitivity,and specificity were analyzed to predict the failure of prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation. Results: All patients were followed up for at least two years,and the follow-up time was (38.4±15.2) months (range: 24 to 66 months). Fifteen patients suffered failure after prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation,while the other 55 patients succeeded. The overall failure rate of prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation in PJI treatment was 21.4%. Level of preoperative CRP(35.9±16.2)mg/L,PLT(280.0±104.0)×109/L and CAR 1.3±0.8 in successful group were lower than CRP (71.7±47.3)mg/L,PLT (364.7±119.3)×109/L and CAR 2.5±2.0 in failed group (all P<0.05).Whereas,level of preoperative ESR/CRP (3.3±3.1), Albumin (35.3±5.2)g/L and PNI 43.6±6.2 in successful group were higher than ESR/CRP (1.6±1.4),Albumin(31.3±4.8)g/L and PNI (39.2±15.1) in failed group (all P<0.05). AUC of ROC curve,optimal threshold value,sensitivity and specificity of CRP,ESR/CRP, PLT, Albumin,CAR and PNI for the predicting failure of prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation were 0.776(95%CI:0.660 to 0.867),35.4 mg/L,86.7%,67.3%;0.725(95%CI:0.605 to 0.825),1.0,60.0%,78.2%;0.713(95%CI:0.593 to 0.815),253,93.3%,47.3%;0.721(95%CI:0.601 to 0.822),35.7,93.3%,49.1%;0.772(95%CI:0.656 to 0.863),1.1,86.7%,67.3%;0.706(95%CI:0.585 to 0.809),45.7,100%,41.8% respectively. Conclusion: In patients with PJI,CRP>35.4,ESR/CRP≤1.0 and CAR>1.1 could predict the failure of prosthesis removal and antibiotic-loaded bone cement spacer implantation.

ABSTRACT

As the smallest combination unit of Chinese medicinals, herbal pairs serve as the bridge between medicinals and formulas, whose combination theory reflects the basic characteristics of Chinese medicinals combination and the core essence of prescription composition. Simultaneously, as a key combination of medicinals in clinical treatment of diseases, syndromes, and symptoms, herbal pairs are the main form of clinical medication in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) as well as the characteristic advantage of treating diseases. This article summarized that “mutual complement of medicinals of same or antagonism flavor and nature” theory is the theoretical origin, and efficacy-enhancement and toxicity-attenuation is the core purpose of the combination of herbal pairs. The property theory of Chinese medicinals and the thought of differentiation and treatment are the main basis of the combination of herbal pairs, and pertinence and flexibility are the key points in clinical application. All mentioned above are expected to provide theoretical guidance for the clinical use and modern research of herbal pairs.

ABSTRACT

In order to fully explore the neural oscillatory coupling characteristics of patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), this paper analyzed and compared the strength of the coupling characteristics for 28 MCI patients and 21 normal subjects under six different-frequency combinations. The results showed that the difference in the global phase synchronization index of cross-frequency coupling under δ-θ rhythm combination was statistically significant in the MCI group compared with the normal control group ( P = 0.025, d = 0.398). To further validate this coupling feature, this paper proposed an optimized convolutional neural network model that incorporated a time-frequency data enhancement module and batch normalization layers to prevent overfitting while enhancing the robustness of the model. Based on this optimized model, with the phase locking value matrix of δ-θ rhythm combination as the single input feature, the diagnostic accuracy of MCI patients was (95.49 ± 4.15)%, sensitivity and specificity were (93.71 ± 7.21)% and (97.50 ± 5.34)%, respectively. The results showed that the characteristics of the phase locking value matrix under the combination of δ-θ rhythms can adequately reflect the cognitive status of MCI patients, which is helpful to assist the diagnosis of MCI.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo establish a multi index fusion hand grip fatigue prediction model to evaluate the power-assisted effect of the glove exoskeleton prototype for extravehicular clothing. MethodsBP neural network algorithm was used to establish a hand fatigue prediction model. The related factors of hand fatigue were determined with isometric grasping fatigue experiment, and the input variables of BP neural network were determined as cylinder diameter, grasping force, grasping duration and root mean square of electromyography. The fatigue data corresponding to variables of each group were obtained through experiments and subjective fatigue measurement scales, and a fatigue evaluation model based on multi-source fusion of BP neural network algorithm was established. The relationship model between fatigue and assistance effect was established, and the assistance effect of the exoskeleton prototype was evaluated through the degree of fatigue relief. ResultsThe correlation coefficient was 0.974 between the predicted results of the model and the target value. Moreover, it effectively predicted the assistance effect of different prototypes. ConclusionThe BP neural network model established by combining the grasping strength, grasping object parameters and human electromyography can predict hand fatigue, which can be used to evaluate the assistance effect of glove exoskeleton and other hand aids.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To understand the current situation of suicidal ideation among middle school students in Taiyuan City and its correlation with exposure to social ecological risk factors, so as to provide a reference basis for exploring the causes of suicidal ideation among middle and high school students and formulating effective preventive measures.@*Methods@#A questionnaire survey was conducted among 2 639 middle school students in urban and rural areas of Taiyuan City by multistage stratified random cluster sampling, including general demography characteristics, social ecological risk factors and suicidal ideation. SPSS 26.0 software was used for Chi squared test and binary Logistic regression analysis.@*Results@#The overall detection rate of suicidal ideation was 24.7 %. There were statistically significant differences in the detection rate of suicidal ideation among middle school students in different gender, grade, family residence, maternal education level, perceived family economic conditions, number of close friends, self-perceived academic burden ( χ 2=38.17, 13.44, 10.77, 8.15, 19.76, 18.95, 59.75, P <0.05). After adjusting the general demography characteristics, the binary Logistic regression showed that moderate and high risk in the individual, family and cultural dimension, and high risk in the school dimension of the social ecology were all positively correlated with suicidal ideation among middle school students ( OR=1.38, 2.28, 1.97, 3.28, 1.48, 2.15, 1.71, P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#The suicidal ideation among middle school students is related to individuals, families, and schools in the social ecological microsystem, as well as the cultural environment in the macro system. It is necessary to conduct intervention in suicidal ideation at the individual, family, and school levels, meanwhile, strengthening social and cultural construction to reduce the impact of adverse factors on the mental health among adolescents.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the association between dietary quality and perceived stress among adult Chinese. Methods The China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS) was used to investigate the association between dietary quality and perceived stress in Chinese adults. The Chinese Perceived Stress Scale (CPSS) was used to assess the perceived stress in Chinese adults. Binary logistic regression models were utilized to explore the relationship between diet quality and perceived stress. Restricted cubic splines (RCS) were utilized to clarify the dose response relationship between diet quality and perceived stress. Results Binary logistic regression models revealed that adults with CHEI score ranged from P25 to P50 and higher than P75 had 15.1% (OR=0.849,95%CI:0.738-0.977) and 23.0% (OR=0.770,95%CI:0.666-0.891) reduced risk of high perceived stress after multivariable adjustment when compared with adults with CHEI score less than P25. RCS results showed that the OR value of high perceived stress risk decreased gradually with increasing CHEI score in the overall population, but this association was not statistically significant in adults with lower CHEI score. Conclusion High dietary quality is associated with a reduced risk of high perceived stress. This study provides a theoretical reference for the health effects of high dietary quality on high perceived stress risk reduction.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the relationship between serum lactate level and early prognosis after liver transplantation (LT) in children.Methods:Between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2020, 675 pediatric LT recipients were recruited. Clinical data were retrospectively reviewed, early postoperative serum lactate level and clearance rate recorded and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve plotted for determining optimal cut-off values. The inter-group differences in early postoperative complications and patient/graft survival rates were compared.Results:According to ROC, blood lactate levels >1.99 mmol/L at 12 h postoperatively were associated with early postoperative graft loss (AUC 0.73, 95% CI: 0.62-0.84, P=0.01). Age and weight of recipients in high-level group were 7.17(5.70-10.40) month and 7.00(6.00-8.60) kg and both were significantly lower than those in low-level group [7.80(6.21-13.58) month and 7.20(6.45-9.00) kg]. The inter-group differences were statistically significant ( P=0.017, P=0.034). Blood plasma transfusion volume, red blood cell transfusion volume, portal vein pressure pre-closure, postoperative intensive care unit (ICU) stay, ventilator use time, early allograft dysfunction rate, early postoperative pulmonary infection rate and recipient mortality rate in high-level group were 400 (200-400) ml, 2.00 (2.00-4.00) U, (15.71±4.44) mmHg, 2.50(2.00-3.00) day, 3.81(2.47-8.50) hour, 22.95%(42/185), 16.76%(31/185) and 6.49%(12/185) respectively. The above values were significantly higher than those in low-level group 200(100-400) ml, 2.00 (2.00-3.00) U, (14.69±4.68) mmHg, 2.00(2.00-3.00) day, 3.53(2.34-6.12) hour, 14.69%(72/490), 11.02%(54/490) and 1.43%(7/490) respectively. The inter-group differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001, P=0.014, P=0.015, P=0.037, P=0.043, P=0.011, P=0.045 & P<0.001). The incidence of early postoperative acute cellular rejection was significantly lower in high-level group than that in low-level group [11.89%(22/185) vs 22.86%(112/490)]. The inter-group difference was statistically significant ( P=0.01). The 1/3-month cumulative survival rates of patient/graft were 94.6%, 94.1% and 92.4%, 91.4% in high-level group versus 99.2%, 98.6% and 99.0%, 98.4% in low-level group. There were significant inter-group differences ( P=0, P<0.000 1). With a rising level of lactate at 12 h postoperatively, risk of early graft loss and early recipient mortality spiked markedly ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum lactate level post-operation is a valid predictor of early prognosis after LT in children.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the early and medium-long term outcomes of steatosis donor liver transplantation(LT)for an optimal clinical application.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2020, this retrospective cohort study was conducted jointly at Shulan (Hangzhou) Hospital, First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University and First Hospital of Jilin University. The relevant clinicopathological and follow-up data were collected from 1535 LT recipients. For comparison, propensity score was utilized for case-control matching of steatosis and non-steatosis donor livers. According to presence or absence of liver steatosis, the recipients were divided into two groups of steatosis donor liver (n=243) and non-steatosis donor liver (n=1292). And 1∶1 propensity score matching was made for two groups. Then early and medium-long term outcomes of two groups were examined. Counts were described as absolute numbers. Kaplan-Meier method was employed for calculating survival time and plotting survival curve and Log-rank test for survival analysis. COX regression model was utilized for univariate and multivariate analyses. Based on basic metabolic disease pre-LT, steatosis donor liver recipients were divided into three subgroups: BMI ≥25 kg/m 2 with hypertension or diabetes (n=21), BMI<25 kg/m 2 and no hypertension or diabetes (n=130) and other recipients (n=92). A comparative study was performed for determining the prognosis of subgroups according to the different characteristics of recipient and donor liver. Results:No significant inter-group difference existed in 2-year survival post-LT ( P=0.174). However, significant inter-group difference in survival existed after 2 years post-LT ( P=0.004). And 3/5-year survival rate of steatosis donor liver was 66.4% and 44.2% respectively. Both were significantly lower than those of non-steatosis donor liver. Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that steatosis donor liver and male recipients were independent risk factors for prognosis >2 years survival post-LT( P=0.008, P=0.004). Subgroup analysis of steatosis liver donors showed that the prognosis of patients with BMI ≥25 kg/m 2 with hypertension or diabetes was significantly worse than other subgroups (BMI <25 kg/m 2 with no hypertension or diabetes and other recipients) <2 years survival post-LT ( P=0.029, P=0.043). Conclusions:Steatosis donor liver does not affect early survival of recipients, yet reduces medium-long term survival rate of recipients notably. In steatosis donor liver recipients, early survival rate declines markedly in recipients with preoperative BMI ≥25 kg/m 2 with hypertension or diabetes as compared with BMI <25 kg/m 2 with no hypertension or diabetes group.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of massive intraoperative bleeding in patients with renal cell carcinoma and tumor thrombus.Methods:Data of 177 patients with renal cell carcinoma and tumor thrombus in Peking University Third Hospital from January 2017 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 129 males and 48 females. The average age was (59.3±10.6) years. The tumors were located on the left in 66 cases and on the right in 111 cases. The tumor size was less than 7 cm in 52 cases, 7-10 cm in 63 cases and >10 cm in 62 cases. There were 45 cases with tumor thrombus of Mayo grade 0, 101 cases of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ and 31 cases of grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ. There were 93 cases undergoing laparoscopic surgery and 84 cases undergoing open surgery. Segmental resection of vena cava was performed in 30 cases. Massive intraoperative bleeding was defined as the total of bleeding ≥ 1 500 ml. The difference of clinical data between massive bleeding group and non-massive bleeding group was compared. Logistic multivariate regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of massive intraoperative bleeding.Result:The median intraoperative bleeding of 177 cases was 600 (200, 1 500) ml. There were 50 cases (28.2%) in massive bleeding group and 127 cases(71.8%) in non-massive bleeding group. Comparing massive bleeding group and non-massive bleeding group, the preoperative ASA scores of 1-2 scores were 38 cases (76.0%) and 114 cases (89.8%) respectively, and the 3 scores were 12 cases (24.0%) and 13 cases (10.2%) respectively ( P=0.029); Hemoglobin was (116.8±23.1) g/L and (127.6±23.6) g/L respectively ( P=0.006); The tumor size less than 7 cm in 10 cases (20.0%) and 42 cases (33.1%), 7-10 cm in 15 cases (30.0%) and 48 cases (37.8%), and >10 cm in 25 cases (50.0%) and 37 cases (29.1%)( P=0.024); Tumor thrombus of Mayo grade 0 were 3 cases (6.0%) and 42 cases (33.1%), grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ were 27 cases (54.0%) and 74 cases (58.3%), grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ were 20 cases (40.0%) and 11 cases (8.6%) respectively ( P<0.01); Open surgery were performed in 42 (84.0%) and 42 (33.1%) cases ( P<0.01); Segmental resection of vena cava was performed in 19 cases (38.0%) and 11 cases (8.7%) respectively ( P<0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that Mayo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus ( OR=10.261, P=0.006), tumor size > 10 cm ( OR=3.223, P=0.030), open surgery ( OR=5.454, P<0.01) and segmental resection of vena cava ( OR=4.441, P<0.01) were independent risk factors for massive intraoperative bleeding. The median bleeding of Mayo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus, tumor size >10cm, open surgery and segmental resection of vena cava were 2000, 750, 1 450 and 1 650 ml respectively. Conclusions:Renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus has a high risk of bleeding. Mayo grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ tumor thrombus, tumor size >10 cm, open surgery and segmental resection of vena cava are independent risk factors for massive intraoperative bleeding.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the physiological effect of bi-level positive airway pressure (BiPAP) ventilation among stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients.Methods:This was a small sample size, exploratory, interventional study. A total of 10 outpatients with stable COPD were included from Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine of Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University between January 2018 and December 2018. The BiPAP mode of noninvasive mechanical ventilation was adopted. The inspiratory positive airway pressure was gradually increased from 10 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa) to 24 cmH 2O, and each time by 2 cmH 2O. The expiratory positive airway pressure remained unchanged at 4 cmH 2O. Baseline and test data were collected before and during the ventilation for comparison, including total respiratory cycle time (T tot), inspiratory time (T i), inspiratory time (T e), inspiratory tidal volume (V Ti); mouth pressure (P mo), esophageal pressure (P eso), transdiaphragmatic pressure (P di), esophageal pressure time product (PTP es), diaphragm pressure time product (PTP di), root mean square of electromyography of diaphragm (RMS), V e/RMS, inspiratory capacity (IC), the change in end-expiratory lung volume (ΔEELV) and dynamic PEEPi (PEEPi dyn). Results:All the 10 patients completed the trial. Compared to calm breathing, V Ti, V e, P mo, IC, ΔEELV score and V e/RMS increased significantly with increasing pressure levels (all P<0.05); T e only increased significantly at 20-22 cmH 2O pressure levels compared to calm breathing ( P<0.05). P di, PTP es, PTP di, RMS and RMS/RMS max decreased significantly with increasing levels (all P<0.05). PTP es and PTP di converged to 0 and no longer showed significant changes after the 18 cmH 2O pressure level. RMS and RMS/RMS max flattened out at pressure level greater than 16 cmH 2O. T i/T tot only significantly decreased at the 20 cmH 2O pressure level compared to calm breathing. PEEPi dyn showed a tendency to decrease and then increase with increasing pressure levels. Conclusion:BiPAP ventilation, at appropriate pressure levels, significantly relieves pulmonary ventilation disorders and reduces the load of respiratory muscle in patients with stable COPD.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the incidence, clinical characteristics and prognosis of second primary malignancies (SPMs) among patients with hypopharyngeal carcinoma (HPC) in real-world analysis.Methods:A total of 594 HPC patients admitted to Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College from 2010 to 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.The incidence and clinical characteristics of HPC patients complicated with SPMs were analyzed. Clinical efficacy was compared among different groups.Results:With a median follow-up time of 66.9 months, SPMs were present in 36.4% (216/594) of HPC patients: 22.2% (132/594) were synchronous and 14.1% (84/594) were metachronous. The upper aerodigestive tract was the most common involved region. Compared with patients without SPMs, patients with synchronous and metachronous carcinoma in situ had similar 5-year overall survival (OS) of 42.2% vs. 44.5% ( P=0.958) and 62.2% vs. 44.5% ( P=0.240), respectively. Patients with synchronous invasive SPMs had a worse 5-year OS of 27.2% vs. 44.5% in their counterparts without SPMs ( P=0.001). Patients with metachronous invasive SPMs had similar 5-year OS of 50.2% vs. 44.5% in their counterparts without SPMs ( P=0.587). SPMs accounted for 42.5% of total death in metachronous invasive SPMs group. Conclusions:Patients with HPC have a high probability of developing SPMs. Moreover, the incidence of complicated with esophageal/gastric carcinoma in situ or metachronous SPMs exerts no effect on prognosis, while the occurrence of synchronous SPMs significantly affectes the prognosis of patients. However, the incidence of SPMs is still one of the main death causes in metachronous invasive SPMs group.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the risk stratification value of coronary CT angiography (CCTA) in patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease based on cluster analysis and to identify the high-risk population of cardiovascular adverse events in patients.Methods:Prospective consecutive patients with suspected coronary artery disease who underwent CCTA examination and were confirmed as non-obstructive coronary heart disease were enrolled in the General Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2017. The clinical characteristics and CCTA diagnosis information of patients were collected, and then follow-up was performed to obtain adverse cardiovascular events. Firstly, the cluster analysis based on CCTA information divided the patients into different groups. Then, the risk of adverse cardiovascular events was compared between different groups. Finally, segment involvement score (SIS) score, Leiden score, SIS score combined with clinical characteristics, Leiden score combined with clinical characteristics, and cluster information combined with clinical characteristics were used to stratify the population, and the concordance index-time curve and net reclassification improvement (NRI) index were described to compare the risk stratification ability of the five different models.Results:A total of 3 402 patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease were included in the study, of whom 104 had adverse cardiovascular events during the follow-up period. Cluster analysis based on CCTA information classified patients into 3 different groups. There were statistically significant differences in clinical characteristics, CCTA information, and survival outcomes between groups ( P<0.05). The results of the concordance index-time curve showed that the risk stratification ability of CCTA cluster information combined with clinical characteristics was better than the current SIS score, Leiden score, SIS score combined with clinical characteristics, Leiden score combined with clinical characteristics. At the 1-year and 2-year time cutoffs, cluster information combined with clinical characteristics showed a positive increase in INR compared with the first four models (INR was 0.248 and 0.293, 0.316 and 0.293, 0.147 and 0.003, 0.192 and 0.007, respectively). Conclusion:CCTA based on cluster analysis has a good risk stratification value for patients with non-obstructive coronary artery disease and is helpful for individualized intervention.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the potential mechanisms of anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in modulating pain behavior and anxiety-like behavior of rats with chronic non-specific low back pain induced by nerve growth factor (NGF).Methods:Ninety-six male SPF grade SD rats aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into four groups according the random number table method: control group, model group, control+ D-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoate (D-AP5) group (control+ D-AP5 group) and model+ D-AP5 group, with 24 rats in each group.Low back pain model of rat was established by injection of NGF into multifidus muscle (left side) of the low backs of rats(two times with a five-day interval). Five days after modeling, rats in model+ D-AP5 group and control+ D-AP5 group were injected with the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist D-AP5(2 μg, 0.3 μL) at the right side of the ACC once a day for consecutive 3 days, and rats in control group and model group were injected with the same amount of 0.9% sodium chloride solution. Seven days after modeling, the pain threshold of rats was evaluated by mechanical stimulation test and hot and cold plate test.The anxiety-like behavior was tested by open field test.The density of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) positive cells and c-Fos(a kind of immediate early gene) positive cells of the spinal cord were observed by immunofluorescence. The expression of GFAP, c-Fos, phosphorylated-c-Jun N-terminal kinases (p-JNK), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL-1) proteins in the L2 segment of the spinal cord were detected by Western blot. SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis. One-way ANOVA was used to analyze normal distribution measurement data for comparison among multiple groups, and Tukey test was used for further pairwise comparisons. The Kruakal-Wallis H test was used for non-normal distribution measurement data, and Mann-Whitney U test was used for further pairwise comparisons with Bonferroni-corrected P-values. Results:In the experiments measuring pressure pain threshold (PPT) and paw withdrawal threshold (PWT), there were statistically significant differences in the PPT and PWT of rats among the four groups ( F=53.498, 41.939, both P<0.001). Seven days after modeling, PPT ((418.5±46.9) g) and PWT ( (55.6±7.1) g) in the ipsilateral side of the rats in model+ D-AP5 group were higher than those in model group ((290.0±32.0) g, (30.5±7.5) g) (both P<0.001). In the open field test, there were statistically significant differences in percentage of the inner zone distance ( H=11.922, P<0.01) and the percentage of inner zone time ( H=21.614, P<0.001) of rats among the four groups. The percentage of inner zone time in model+ D-AP5 group was higher than that in model group (5.6(4.3, 7.9) %, 3.1(2.1, 3.8) %) ( P<0.01). The results of immunofluorescence showed that there were statistically significant differences in the density of GFAP positive cells and c-Fos positive cells at the ipsilateral side of the superficial laminae of rats among the four groups ( H=49.085, F=18.120, both P<0.001). The density of GFAP positive cells (34.3(21.1, 47.5) cells/mm 2) and c-Fos positive cells ((52.7±39.4) cells/mm 2) at the ipsilateral side of the superficial laminae in model+ D-AP5 group were less than those in model group (76.5(68.6, 94.9) cells/mm 2, (112.4±63.7) cells/mm 2) (both P<0.001). The Western blot results showed that there were statistically significant differences in the protein expression of GFAP, c-Fos, p-JNK, MCP-1 and CXCL-1 in the L2 segment of rats among the four groups ( F=49.413, 38.437, 41.867, 36.735, 130.951, all P<0.001). The protein expression of GFAP (1.7±0.5), c-Fos (1.1±0.1), p-JNK (1.7±0.3), MCP-1 (1.0±0.4) and CXCL-1 (0.8±0.1) in the L2 segment in model+ D-AP5 group were lower than those in model group ((4.3±0.7), (2.6±0.5), (2.8±0.4), (2.9±0.4), (3.5±0.4)) (all P<0.01). Conclusion:ACC modulates mechanical hyperalgesia and anxiety-like behavior in chronic non-specific low back pain rats, which might be associated with the involvement of spinal astrocytes, p-JNK signal pathway and chemokines such as MCP-1 and CXCL-1.

ABSTRACT

Objective:The included angle of the outermost edge of the pedicle and the front edge of the central line of T12, L1, and L12 in the axial projection was compared before surgery (the incidence angle of the pedicle was set as α). A horizontal line passing through point C was made to cross the inner edge of the pedicle in the axial projection and the intersection point was designated as point D. The distance between point C and point D was compared among T12, L1, and L2. The advantages and feasibility of the measurement of these parameters for guiding puncture and bone cement injection in L1 percutaneous vertebroplasty were investigated.Methods:The clinical data of 91 patients with L1 osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture who underwent percutaneous vertebroplasty in The First People's Hospital of Chu Zhou from January 2018 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Axial α and CD of the L1 vertebral body and its adjacent vertebral bodies were measured. The amount of bone cement injected during the surgery, bone cement leakage rate, and pre- and post-surgery Visual Analogue Scale score were determined.Results:The α and CD of L1 in the axial projection were (20.43 ± 1.61)° and (5.37 ± 1.08) mm, respectively. Bone cement leakage rates of unilateral and bilateral approaches of L1 vertebral body were 35% and 12%, respectively, and there was a significant difference between the two approaches ( χ2 = 6.08, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the amount of bone cement injected during the surgery between unilateral and bilateral approaches of L1 ( P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in pre- and post-surgery Visual Analogue Scale scores between unilateral and bilateral approaches of L1 ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:The α and CD of L1 in the axial projection are smaller than those of other adjacent vertebral bodies, which is of great significance for selecting a puncture path and reducing bone cement leakage.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the incidence of myopia in adolescents has been increasing year by year, and how to effectively control the development of myopia has become a research hotspot in the field of public health.The orthokeratology lens has been widely used in myopia control because of its great safety, reliability, and little impact on daily life.The cornea after overnight orthokeratology lens wear can be divided into a relatively flat central treatment zone and a steep peripheral defocus zone.Decentration of the treatment zone is common in clinical practice and is mainly located in the inferior temporal quadrant.Studies have shown that the greater the asymmetry of the anterior corneal surface, the greater the degree of myopia at baseline, and the smaller the diameter of the lens, the greater the deviation of the treatment zone.In addition, decentration of the treatment zone is also related to the gravity of the lens, Bell phenomenon, eyelid, and so on.Large decentration of the treatment zone results in decreased visual quality, including clinical symptoms such as ghosting vision and glare, which may be caused by the increase in comatic aberration.Decentration of the treatment zone may have better myopia control, due to the increase of defocus in the pupil area.Obvious decentration of the treatment zone can be solved by increasing the sagittal height, adjusting the alignment curve, increasing the lens diameter and switching to toric lenses, etc.This article reviewed the factors that affect the decentration of the treatment zone after overnight orthokeratology wear, the influence of decentration on visual quality and myopia control, and the methods to help solve the problems caused by the decentration of the treatment zone, which can guide fitting and replacement of orthokeratology lenses.
