ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore the distribution characteristics of the influencing factors of injury among left behind primary school students, so as to provide a reference for identifying high risk injury groups and carrying out accurate injury intervention.@*Methods@#From August 2021 to July 2022, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 3 769 students from grades 4 to 6 from nine primary schools in three townships in Pingliang City by using the a random cluster sampling method. Multiple correspondence analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of injury.@*Results@#The detection rate of injuries among non left behind pupils was 21.8%(573/2 631), whereas the detection rate of injuries among left behind pupils was 40.9%(466/1 138). In addition, a statistically significant difference was observed in the detection rate of injuries between left behind pupils and non left behind pupils ( χ 2=146.21, P <0.01). Among the injuries of left behind pupils, 263 had fall related injuries, accounting for the highest proportion ( 56.4 %). Whether it was an only child，and different grades, gender, personality, psychological status, monitoring type, and maternal education level were statistically significant ( χ 2=39.05, 96.69, 143.00, 155.80, 461.39, 285.35, 17.10, P <0.01). The multiple correspondence analysis category graph showed higher rates of fall injuries, blunt injuries and sharp injuries among boys, extroverted personality types, and left behind pupils whose grandparents were their legal guardians. Animal bites, burns and other injury types were higher among left behind pupils with an introverted personality, pupils in peer/other guardianship situations, and those with a sub mental health status. Unharmed left behind students mainly included those with intermediate personality and mental health characteristics.@*Conclusion@#The injury detection rate among left behind primary school students is high. Gender, personality type, guardianship type, and mental health status are closely related to injury. Extroverted boys under grandparents guardians are identified as high risk groups for injury prevention and control. Under the guidance of the precision prevention model, precision intervention strategies for all round high risk groups should be carried out in order to effectively reduce the occurrence of injuries among left behind pupils.
ABSTRACT
Gastric cancer （GC） is one of the common malignant tumors， and the incidence and mortality of GC in China rank first in the world. At present， the pathogenesis of GC has not been fully clarified. Although surgery， radiotherapy， chemotherapy， targeted therapy， and immunotherapy have achieved good results in the treatment of GC， there are still many complications， decreased sensitivity， and severe side effects. Banxia Xiexintang， derived from Treatise on Cold Damage and Miscellaneous Diseases（《伤寒杂病论》）， has been clinically used for more than 2000 years with the effects of combining cold and warm drugs， dissipating mass， and relieving stuffiness， and is a classic prescription for treating digestive tract diseases in later generations. Through clinical observation and experimental research， it is found that Banxia Xiexintang and its single drugs have good effect in preventing and treating GC. Chinese medicine has multi-component and multi-target characteristics and can treat GC through various mechanisms. Therefore， it is necessary to carry out systematic and in-depth research from the aspects of molecular biology and network pharmacology， and comprehensively reveal the mechanism of Banxia Xiexintang in preventing and treating GC. At present， the mechanism of Banxia Xiexintang in treating GC mainly focuses on inducing apoptosis of GC cells， inhibiting proliferation， migration， and invasion of GC cells， protecting peritoneal mesothelial cells， inhibiting peritoneal metastasis of GC cells， regulating GC microenvironment， and inhibiting the malignant transformation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （BMSCs）. This research group is committed to the prevention and treatment of GC with Banxia Xiexintang， aiming to comprehensively reveal the mechanism of action and the pharmacodynamic material basis of Banxia Xiexintang in the prevention and treatment of GC， and provide an important scientific basis for further clinical application of Banxia Xiexintang. After searching CNKI， PubMed， Wanfang Data， VIP， and other databases， this paper summarized Banxia Xiexintang in the treatment of GC from the aspects of prescription basis， material basis， network pharmacology， clinical and experimental studies， etc.， so as to provide references for further research on pharmacological effect of Banxia Xiexintang and its application in the clinical treatment of GC.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Banxia Xiexintang （BXT）-containing intestinal absorption solution on the apoptosis of polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells （PMN-MDSCs） in gastric cancer microenvironment. MethodBXT-containing intestinal absorption solution was prepared， and gastric cancer cells and PMN-MDSCs were non-contact co-cultured in Transwell chamber to establish gastric cancer microenvironment. Cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was used to screen the optimal intervention concentration and time of 0-100% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution prepared by 0.63 g·mL-1 reconstitution solution. Cells were classified into blank group， model group， oxaliplatin group （10 mg·L-1）， and BXT （26%， 18%， 10% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution） group， and the apoptosis of PMN-MDSCs was detected by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptosis-related B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax）， and cysteine-aspartic acid protease-3 （Caspase-3） in PMN-MDSCs was detected by Western blot. ResultAfter treatment for 24 h and 48 h， the PMN-MDSCs-inhibiting rate was increased by 5%， 50%， 75%， and 100% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution compared with that in the blank group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. At 72 h， the PMN-MDSCs-inhibiting rate by 50% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution was lower than that at 48 h （P<0.01）， and the PMN-MDSCs-inhibiting rate by 5%， 75%， and 100% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution showed no significant difference from that at 48 h. Moreover， the half-maximal inhibitory concentration （IC50） at 48 h was 18.40%. Thus， 18% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution and 48 h were the optimal intervention concentration and time. The survival rate of PMN-MDSCs in model group was higher than that in the blank group （P<0.05）， and the apoptosis rate was lower than that in the blank group （P<0.05）. Compared with model group， BXT containing intestinal absorption solution lowered the survival rate and raised apoptosis rate of PMN-MDSCs （P<0.05）， particularly the 26% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution （P<0.05）. The expression of Bax and Caspase-3 in PMN-MDSCs was lower in the model group than in the blank group （P<0.05）， and the expression of Bcl-2 was higher in the model group than in the blank group （P<0.05）. The expression of Caspase-3 in PMN-MDSCs increased （P<0.05） and the expression of Bcl-2 decreased （P<0.05） in oxaliplatin group and BXT group compared with those in the model group. The expression of Bax rose in oxaliplatin group and BXT group （10% BXT-containing intestinal absorption solution） （P<0.05）. ConclusionBXT can induce the apoptosis of PMN-MDSCs by regulating the expression of apoptosis-related proteins Bax， Caspase-3， and Bcl-2 in gastric cancer microenvironment.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Banxia Xiexintang containing intestinal absorption solution （BXCIAS） on migration and invasion of polymorphonuclear myeloid-derived suppressor cells （PMN-MDSCs） in gastric cancer microenvironment. MethodThe complex solution （containing 0.63 g·mL-1 crude drug） was prepared. Gastric cancer cells were subjected to non-contact co-culture with PMN-MDSCs in Transwell chamber to create gastric cancer microenvironment. Cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay was used to screen the optimal intervention concentration and time of BXCIAS on PMN-MDSCs for subsequent experiment. The blank group， model group， FAK inhibitor group， and BXCIAS groups （26%， 18%， and 10%） were designed. Scratch assay and Transwell assay were employed to detect the migration and invasion ability of PMN-MDSCs， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） to measure the expression of vascular endothelial cell growth factor （VEGF） and matrix metalloproteinase-9 （MMP-9） in tumor microenvironment. The expression levels of PMN-MDSCs pathway-related proteins FAK， phosphorylated （p）-FAK， protein tyrosine kinase （Src）， and p-Src were detected by Western blot. ResultThe inhibition rates of PMN-MDSCs by 5%， 50%， 75%， and 100% BXCIAS at 48 h were higher than those at 24 h （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The inhibition rate of PMN-MDSCs by 50% BXCIAS at 72 h was lower than that at 48 h （P<0.01）， and the inhibition rates by 5% and 100% BXCIAS at 72 h were higher than those at 48 h （P<0.05， P<0.01）. There was no significant difference in the inhibition rate by other concentration levels at 48 h. The half-maximal inhibitory concentration （IC50） at 48 h was 18.09%， indicating that 18% BXCIAS and 48 h were the optimal concentration and time， respectively. The migration distance of PMN-MDSCs was large （P<0.01）， and the number of migrating and invading cells increased （P<0.01） in the mode group compared with those in the blank group. Compared with model group， FAK inhibitor and BXCIAS at different concentration decreased the migration distance of PMN-MDSCs （P<0.01）， and the number of migrating and invading cells （P<0.01）， especially the 26% BXCIAS （P<0.01）. The expression of PMN-MDSCs pathway-related proteins FAK， p-FAK， Src and p-Src （P<0.01） and the expression of VEGF and MMP-9 （P<0.01） were higher in the model group than in the blank group. Compared with model group， FAK inhibitor and BXCIAS （26%， 18%， 10%） decreased the expression of FAK， p-FAK， and Src （P<0.01）， and FAK inhibitor and 18% BXCIAS reduced the expression of p-Src （P<0.01）， and the expression of VEGF and MMP-9 （P<0.01）. ConclusionBXCIAS can inhibit the migration and invasion of PMN-MDSCs by down-regulating the expression of FAK， p-FAK， Src， and p-Src proteins in the FAK signaling pathway of PMN-MDSCs in gastric cancer microenvironment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the potential prognostic factors in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicate by portal vein tumor thrombosis (PVTT) who are treated with transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). Methods The complete clinical data of a total of 46 patients with HCC complicate by PVTT, who were treated with TACE during the period from January 2010 to March 2016, were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical material database was established. Kaplan-Meier test was adopted to analyze the survival rate and the COX risk ratio model was used to screen out the independent prognostic factors. Life table method was employed to calculate the survival time. Results The 6-, 12-, 18- and 24-month survival rates were 51. 2％, 28. 9％, 23. 4％ and 10. 2％, respectively. The median survival time was 6. 7 months. According to mRECIST standard, complete remission (CR) was obtained in one patient (2. 1％), partial remission (PR) in 11 patients (23. 9％), stable disease (SD) in 16 patients (34. 8％) and progress disease (PD) in 18 patients (39. 2％). Multivariate analysis indicated that local tumor response, ascites, cholinesterase, and arteriovenous fistula were the independent factors affecting the prognosis. Conclusion The independent prognostic factors that affect the survival time of HCC patient include local tumor response, ascites, cholinesterase and arteriovenous fistula.

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:Gastric cancer mesenchyal stem cel s from clinical stomach cancer specimens and tumorigenic tissues in nude mice are similar to the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s in biological characteristics, which have been proved to be an important component of tumor microenvironment to promote tumor growth. It is speculated that biological characteristic of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s may change in stomach cancer microenvironment. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of stomach cancer microenvironment on morphology and proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and expressions of CD34 and CD44. METHODS:Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were cultured alone as control group. In the test group, rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were co-cultured with human stomach cancer BGC-823 cel s using Transwel chamber assay to establish the stomach cancer microenvironment. Then, cel morphology, proliferation, cel cycle and CD34, CD44 expressions were observed and detected using inverted phase contrast microscope, MTT assay, and flow cytometry, respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In the test group, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were similar to human stomach cancer cel s BGC-823 that arranged disorderly and irregularly, were interconnected loosely, became thinner and longer, and grew in clusters with smal er nuclei. The cel proportion in G 1 phase significantly decreased, but that in S and G 2/M phases significantly increased (P<0.01, P<0.05). The positive rate of CD44 significantly declined, and the CD34 expression significantly raised (P<0.01). In conclusion, stomach cancer microenvironment by non-contact co-culture with BCG-823 cel s has an obvious effect on the morphology, proliferation and surface antigens expressions of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s that wil tend to be malignant gastric cancer cel s.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the different apoptotic gene expressions and apoptotic signaling transduction of human rhabdomyosarcoma (RD) cells infected by enterovirus 71 (EV71) in different stage.Methods The survival of EV71-infected RD cells was observed by trypan blue staining.The apoptotic morphology and rates of RD cells were surveyed and detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining and flow cytometry,respectively.PCR array was employed to analyze 88 apoptotic gene expressions from EV71-infected RD cells at 8 h and 20 h postinfection (p.i),respectively.Results After RD cells were infected with EV71 (MOI =5) at 8 h p.i,the viability was significantly decreased.Flow cytometry data demonstrated that the apoptotic rates of EV71-infected RD cells had increased to 18.0％ and 19.1％ at 20 h p.i in early and later stage respectively.RT-PCR array studies revealed significant variations in the expression of apoptotic genes.Among 88 genes,only the expression of IFN-β1 was upregulated 5.22 folds,whereas 47 genes including ACIN1,Akt,Apaf1,caspase and CIDEB were found to be downregulated that were lower than 2 folds at 8 h p.i.However,28 genes including FasL,CD40L,TNF,caspase-10 and caspase-3 were induced more than 2 folds after EV71 infection at 20 h.Conclusion The downregulation of apoptosis-related genes is associated with viral apoptosis-suppressing effect in RD cells in the early stage of EV71 infection.The death receptor signaling pathways including Fas/FasL and TNF/TNFR are activated to induce cell apoptosis in the late stage of EV71 infection.Moreover,host cell can also inhibit apoptosis by regulating signal pathway of CD40/CD40L,NF-κB/RelA and PI3K/Akt activation.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the dynamic variation of serum ferritin (SF), folic acid, and vitamin B_(12) levels in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) at different disease stages. Methods:Serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels were successively tested in thirty-six patients with primary APL every 1 to 3 months by using chemiluminescence analysis. Five different disease stages were selected as dynamic observation time points: first diagnosed, first complete remission (CR1), six months after CR1, relapsed stage,and CR1 for three years. Results:There were 75.0%(27/36)of patients with abnormal high levels of SF, 77.8% (28/36)of patients with abnormal low levels of folic acid, and 100%(36/36)of patients with increased vitamin B_(12) levels in first diagnosed stage. The number of patients with abnormal variations of SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) level was decreased in CR1 stage compared with those in first diagnosed stage (SF: P0.05). The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels were in normal ranges in the patients who had 3-year CR. Conclusion:The serum SF, folic acid and vitamin B_(12) levels had dynamic variation in APL course. Increase in serum SF and vitamin B_(12) as well as decrease in folic acid are related with the active degree of APL and its tumor load.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the cell cycle and mechanisms of HCC Bel-7404 cell line by treatment of extract of centipede ( ECP). Method Bel-7404 cell line was cultured in vitro. ECP was applied to the interference of the growth of Bel-7404 with different drug concentration. Cell cycles and apoptosis ratios of ECP group were detected by flow cytometry (FCM). To investigate the expression of apop-tosis related genes XIAP and Bax, we also detect HCC Bel-7404 cell line after 48 hours treated with ECP by immunohistochemical method. Result The results of FCM displayed that ECP in treatment group mainly retard cell cycle phase in G0/G1 after 48 hours. The ratios of G0/ G1 .proliferation index (PI) and apoptosis ratios were significantly different between treatment group and control group when the concentrations were different. It was also significantly different between treatment group and control group when the same concentration of ECP was used. It showed that XIAP gene expression decreased gradually while Bax gene expression increased with the increase of ECP concentration, and these were statistical significance in contrast to control group ( P <0.05). Conclusion ECP mainly retarded cell cycle phase of Bel-7404 in G0/G1, suppressed the proliferation, and could induce it to apoptosis. The inhibitory effect was time - concentration dependent. The mechanisms were due to promote Bax gene and inhibit XIAP gene expression in HCC Bel-7404 cell line.
