ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the value of dynamic nomogram constructed by multi spiral computed tomography(MSCT)features combined with inflammatory indicators in predicting the status of microvascular invasion(MVI)of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)before surgery.Methods The clinical and imaging data of 137 patients with postoperative pathologically confirmed HCC were analyzed retrospectively.According to the status of the MVI,they were divided into positive group(44 cases)and negative group(93 cases).Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to screen independent risk factors for predicting the MVI status of HCC patients,and a joint prediction model was constructed,which was displayed in the form of a dynamic nomogram.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow test were used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency,calibration and goodness of fit of the model,Akaike information criterion(AIC)and Bayesian information criterion(BIC)were used for comparison between the models,and a 5-fold cross-validation and decision curve analysis(DCA)were also used to evaluate the stability and clinical applicability of the model.Results Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that necrosis and delayed-phase enhancement(DEd),and alkaline phosphatase to lymphocyte ratio(ALR)were independent risk factors for predicting MVI status in HCC patients.The area under the curve(AUC)of the dynamic nomogram was 0.721,with the sensitivity of 0.705 and the specificity of 0.656.The AIC and BIC values were 152.372 and 158.212,respectively.The calibration curve and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that the model had a high degree of calibration and goodness of fit(χ2=2.372,P=0.967),the average AUC of the 5-fold cross-validation was 0.787,and the DCA showed that the nomogram model had a good clinical applicability.Conclusion The dynamic nomogram model constructed by MSCT features combined with inflammatory indicators is feasible to predict the MVI status of HCC patients before surgery,and the dynamic nomogram can directly generate the prediction results of different individuals.

ABSTRACT

To explore the barriers and facilitators of shared decision making, 23 clinicians were selected for semi-structured interviews by purpose sampling and convenience sampling with phenomenological methods in qualitative research, and 7-step of Colaizzi was used to analyze the interview data. Three themes and twelve subthemes were extracted, included: individual factors of doctors (role cognition, perceived outcomes, communication skills, clinical expertise, cognitive bias) , individual factors of patients (general information, lack of disease knowledge, willingness to participate in decision making) and environmental factors (clinical situation, social environment, resources and social influence) . There were many barriers and facilitators in the implementation of doctor-patient shared decision making. It is necessary to scientifically analyze and actively deal with the influence of each factor, and find reasonable countermeasures to promote the clinical implementation of shared decision making.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore heterogeneous subtypes of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation and the characteristics differences of different types of children after liver transplantation. Methods Seven hundred and forty-one children who underwent living-related liver transplantation were enrolled. The self-designed general information questionnaire, Chinese version of 5-Item World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) and the parent-report version of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) were filled out by their guardians. The scores of five dimensions of SDQ were used as the manifest variables of the model. The classification model of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation was constructed by latent profile analysis. The latent categories of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation were analyzed. The influencing factors of latent categories were analyzed by univariate analysis and logistic regression model. Results There were three latent categories of psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation, including peer communication problem group (n=302), psychological and behavioral adaptation group (n=145) and psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulty group (n=294). The first two groups were merged into the psychological and behavioral health group (n=447), which had significant differences in the five dimensions and the total score of difficulties of SDQ compared with the psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulty group (n=294) (all P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that age≤5 years old, primary disease of non-cholestatic liver disease, stem family were the risk factors for psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulties in pediatric recipients after liver transplantation. Female gender, high education levels of parents and high WHO-5 score of guardians were the protective factors for psychological and behavioral adjustment difficulties in pediatric recipients after liver transplantation (all P<0.05). Conclusions The psychological and behavioral adaptation characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation are heterogeneous. Medical staff should pay extensive attention to different characteristics of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation with different psychological and behavioral adaptation categories and adopt targeted screening and intervention strategies, aiming to improve psychological and behavioral adaptation outcomes of pediatric recipients after liver transplantation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and genetic factors of neonatal 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type10 (HSD10) deficiency.Methods:The clinical characteristics and genetic test results of a child with HSD10 deficiency coming from Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University in April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.The keywords" 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 10 deficiency" or " 2-Methyl3-Hydroxybutyryl-CoA dehydrogenase deficiency" or " HSD10" , etc.were searched in various databases, including CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, Embase and PubMed to review the cases collected from all published data until May 31, 2020.Results:The patient was a newborn male who developed symptoms on the first day after birth.The main signs were metabolic acidosis, increased blood ammonia and lactate, and hypotonia.Trio whole exom sequencing in the patient and his parents identified hemizygous NM001037811: c.650G>A, p.R217Q in the HSD17B10 gene that is inherited from the mother.Since the child died on the third day after birth, no further central nervous system examination was performed.The mother of the child has intellectual disability, the sibling sister is normal and the HSD17B10 locus is wild type.By lite-rature reviewing, 5 newborn cases with clear medical records and genetic test results were listed.All patients were male, and had onset of HSD10 deficiency within 1 week after birth.The main phenotypes include metabolic acidosis (increased blood ammonia and lactate), hypoglycemia, hypotonia, and convulsions.All 6 children died in early infancy.The corresponsive HSD17B10 variants were c. 740A>G/p.N247S, c.677G>A/p.R226Q, c.257A>G/p.D86G and c. 650G>A/p.R217Q, which did not indicate the hot spots of mutation. Conclusions:HSD10 deficiency in the neonatal period is relatively rare.The clinical diagnosis is difficult due to the serious condition and short course of the disease.Severe metabolic acidosis, hypotonia, and convulsions in neonatal patients are the main reasons for the poor prognosis, which can be attributed to the hemizygous variation and heterogeneity of the mutation site in male patients.c.650G>A may be closely associated with severe neonatal HSD10 deficiency, but the molecular biological mechanism needs to be further clarified.HSD10 deficiency has a poor prognosis and lacks effective treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective Although intersphinctoric resection is the standard method for clinical treatment of local low rectal cancer, it is lack of control for the occurrence and development of postoperative incontinence symptoms. Therefore, the effects of different ISR on postoperative stool function were analyzed retrospectively to provide guidance for judging the degree of fecal incontinence. Methods A total of 73 cases of ISR patients with low rectal adenocarcinoma treated in the oncology ward, and the outpatient department of our department from January 2014 to November 2017 were retrospectively studied. According to the distance of the tumor from the anal margin and different ISR procedures, 73 cases were divided into three group:group ISR (37 cases), subtotal ISR group (28 cases) and complete ISR group (8 cases). The anus dynamic index, Wexner subjective score of incontinence and multiple regression analysis were used to compare the severity of fecal incontinence in each group before and after operation to determine the function of stool control. Results There was no significant difference in the maximum resting pressure of anal canal, HPZ, the maximum systolic pressure of the anal canal and the Wexner in the three groups. Multiple variable ROC model regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing degree on the function of the stool, and the results showed that the Wexner score, HPZ, the maximum resting pressure of the anal canal, and the maximum systolic pressure had an obvious effect on the ability to control the stool, in which the HPZ correlated most predominately (P<0.01, HR=1.74, 95%CI 1.49- 2.03), and the age and sex factors were not selected in the equation. Conclusions Inter sphincter resection combined with new adjuvant therapy can effectively improve the anal fecal control ability of patients with low rectal cancer. The change of HPZ is of significance for prejudging the severity of fecal incontinence, which is worthy of further study.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the differences in expression profile of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in retina between normal newborn mice and those with oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) to lay a foundation for further study of regulatory mechanisms of lncRNA in retinal neovascularization, and to provide a new theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). Methods A total of 48 cleaning grade C57BL/6J neonatal mice were randomly divided into two groups with 24 in each: OIR group and control group. Those in the OIR group were exposed to hyperoxia [(75±2)% O2] from 7th to 12th day after birth, and then re-exposed to normoxia (room air) for five days to establish a OIR mouse model. Mice in the control group were raised in room air all the time. Retinal tissues were collected from each mouse on the 17th day after birth. Retinal angiography and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining were performed to confirm the establishment of OIR mouse model. Expression profiles of lncRNAs were analyzed by lncRNA high-throughput sequencing and the results were verified by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Based on the expression of lncRNAs and mRNA and the relationship between their genomic locations, potential target genes of lncRNAs were obtained. Gene ontology analysis (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Gnomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were used for bioinformatics analysis of lncRNA expression profile in OIR. T test and Graphpad prism were used for statistical analysis and spreadsheet. Results Retinal angiography and HE staining identified serious retinal damage in the OIR group. In total, 1118 differentially expressed lncRNAs ( ≥ 2.0-fold difference in expression, P<0.05) relating to OIR between the two groups were identified by lncRNA high-throughput sequencing. Results of real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR confirmed that XLOC_150632 and XLOC_150636 were upregulated in the OIR group as compared with those in the control, while XLOC_122045,XLOC_100454, XLOC_170009 and XLOC_122042 were downregulated. GO analysis showed that 852, 1148 and 2100 target genes of differentially expressed lncRNAs were relating to biological process, cellular component and molecular function, respectively. KEGG analysis showed that the target genes were associated with 36 biological pathways, mainly relating to retinal development, chemotaxis, migration and energy metabolism of vascular endothelial cells. Conclusions lncRNAs are differentially expressed in healthy newborn mice and newborn mice with OIR. Fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), the potential target gene of XLOC_150632 and XLOC_150636, is related to phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) signaling pathway and may be involved in retinal neovascularization. This might be a potential target for ROP prevention and treatment.

Objective To explore the role of miR-20a on pulmonary surfactant synthesis of alveolar epithelial cells A549 and its potential mechanism.Methods Lentivirus miR-20a overexpression vector(miR-20a group) or lentivirus no-load vector(no-load group) was transfected into A549 cells,and the expression of green fluorescent protein(GFP) was observed to determinate the transfection effficiency;cell proliferation was detected by using 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT);the bioinformatics software and database were applied to predict and analyze the target genes of miR-20a about lung development;expressions of miR-20a,pulmonary surfactant-associated protein A(SP-A),pulmonary surfactant-associated protein B(SP-B),pulmonary surfactant-associated protein C(SP-C) and pulmonary surfactant-associated protein D(SP-D) mRNA were detected by using quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR);the expressions of SP-A protein,SP-B protein,SP-C protein,SP-D protein and protein signal transducers and activators of transcription 3 (STAT3) were detected by using Western blot.Results Observation of GFP expression under a fluorescent microscope indicated similar transfection efficiency,and real time-PCR showed that the expression of miR-20a increased after being transfected with lentivirus miR-20a overexpression vector(3.85 ± 0.18)compared with the normal group (0.99 ± 0.04)and the no-load group (1.21 ± 0.12),and the differences were significant(t =10.85,9.64,all P <0.001).As a result,lentivirus miR-20a overexpression vector was constructed successfully.Online software predicted that STAT3 gene was likely to be the target gene of miR-20a.Compared with the normal group (24 h,48 h,72 h:0.23 ± 0.01,0.39 ± 0.01,0.56 ± 0.03) and the no-load group (24 h,48 h,72 h:0.25 ± 0.01,0.44 ± 0.05,0.59 ± 0.01),miR-20a did not change the cell proliferation at different time points(24 h,48 h,72 h:0.26 ± 0.01,0.41 ± 0.02,0.58 ± 0.02) (all P > 0.05).Compared with the normal group (1.00 ± 0.05,1.24 ± 0.20,1.31 ± 0.09,0.89 ± 0.12) and the no-load group (0.76 ± 0.10,1.31 ± 0.13,1.50 ± 0.11,1.01 ± 0.11),miR-20a up-regulated the mRNA expressions of SP-A,SP-B,SP-C and SP-D (2.05 ± 0.17,2.14 ± 0.10,2.84 ± 0.09,1.66 ± 0.08),and the differences were significant (all P < 0.05).Compared with the normal group (0.46 ± 0.01,0.27 ± 0.03,0.69 ± 0.01,0.43 ± 0.01) and no-load group (0.43 ± 0.01,0.21 ± 0.01,0.79 ± 0.02,0.44 ± 0.02),miR-20a also increased the protein expressions of SP-A,SP-B,SP-C and SP-D (0.55 ±0.01,0.47 ±0.05,0.96 ±0.02,0.59 ±0.03),the diffe-rences were statistically significant (all P <0.05).The expression of STAT3 in miR-20a group(0.37 ±0.05) was significantly lower than that in the normal group(0.60 ±0.04) and the no-load group (0.68 ±0.06),and the differences were statstically significant (all P < 0.05) in A549.Conclusions STAT3 is a downstream target gene of miR-20a.miR-20a can promote pulmonary surfactant synthesis of alveolar epithelial cells A549 by inhibiting STAT3.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the roles of miR-20a in lipopolysaccharide induced inflammation of A549 cells and the possible mechanisms.Method The miR-20a mimic/inhibitor were transfected into A549 cells, and the cells were stimulated using lipopolysaccharide for 24 h.Interleukin-6 ( IL-6) and IL-8 were detected at mRNA level and protein level using real-time PCR and ELISA method , respectively.Protein expression of apoptosis signal regulating kinase 1 (ASK1)、P38、P-P38、JNK and P-JNK were detected using Western blot. Result Compared to mimic negative control group , the levels of mRNA and protein expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in the mimic group were all significantly decreased ( P<0.05).Compared to inhibitor negative control group , the levels of mRNA and protein expression of IL-6 and IL-8 in the inhibitor group were all significantly increased (P<0.05).The levels of ASK1, P-P38 and P-JNK protein in the mimic group were significantly lower than the mimic negative control group (P<0.05);the level of protein expression of ASK1, P-P38 and P-JNK in the inhibitor group were all higher than the inhibitor negative control group (P<0.05).Conclusion The regulation of ASK1 by miR-20a may play an important role in the inflammation process of acute respiratory distress syndrome .

ABSTRACT

Background Previous studies showed that the pathogenesis of uveitis is related to γδ T cells.However,it remains unclear that how these cells are involved in experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU).Objective This study aimed to observe the dynamic changes of γδ T cells in EAU and explore the role of γδ T cells in the pathological process of EAU.Methods Forty-five C57BL/6(B6) mice were assigned to the normal control group (six mice) and EAU model group (thirty-nine mice).The mice were immunized subcutaneously at 6 spots on the footpads,tail base,and flank with emulsion containing human interphotoreceptor retinoid binding protein1-20 (IRBP1-20) emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant.After immunization,the mice were examined for clinical signs of EAU by using a Genesis-D camera.The changes of histopathology were compared by hematoxylin and eosin staining.Mouse lymphocytes were isolated and purified from the spleens of IRBP1-20-immunized or normal B6 mice by using a γδ T-cell isolation kit.Flow cytometry was used to detect the changes of intracellular expression of interleukin-17A (IL-17A),and then transferred the activated γδ T cells into EAU models to analyze the changes of clinical signs and histopathology of EAU.Experimental study program as well as the use and feeding of the animals were authorized by the Animal Management and Use Committee of Shandong Traditional Chinese Medicine University.Results The inflammatory symptoms in mouse eyes appeared on day 12 after modeling.The initial changes were fundal blood vessel thickening and minimal inflammatory cell infiltration.Then,multifocal chorioretinal lesions,serious vasculitis and linear lesions were observed on days 16-20,along with abundant lymphocyte infiltration in the vitreous and retinal disorganization.The inflammation symptom scores and the pathological inflammation scores at different time points after modeling had statistically significant differences (F =51.399,P =0.000;F =47.342,P =0.000).The inflammatory symptoms in the eyes began to abate from day 28 onwards.The number of γδ T cells was obviously increased during the inflammation phase of EAU at day 16-20 after modeling,with the number of γδ T cells was (5.67 ±-0.49) % and (5.78 ±±0.55) %,respectively,which was significantly higher than (1.53 ± 0.14) % before modeling,with significant differences between them (both at P<0.05),meanwhile CD69 levels and the integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) and secreted IL-17A were elavated.The secretion level of IL-17A was (13.40±0.50)% and (17.80±2.37)% on day 16 and day 20 after modeling,respectively,which was significantly higher than (1.53 ± 0.19) % before modeling,with significant differences between them (P =0.000,0.001).The activated γδ T cells were transferred into EAU model,the inflammation symptom scores were 1.00 (1.00,2.00) after activated γδ T cells were transferred into EAU model,which was significantly higher than 0.75 (0.05,1.00) of the untransferred group (Z =27.00,P =0.03),and the symptoms of EAU were aggravated.Conclusions The proportion of γδ T cells reaches peak in inflammation of EAU,and the cells are activated.The activated γδ T cells in the EAU model play a immune regulation role by secreting IL-17A.
