ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the curative effect between interactive scalp acupuncture and traditional scalp acupuncture on hemiplegic upper extremity motor dysfunction in the patients with ischemic stroke.@*METHODS@#Seventy cases of hemiplegic upper extremity motor dysfunction of ischemic stroke were randomly divided into an interactive scalp acupuncture group (35 cases, 1 case breaked off) and a traditional scalp acupuncture group (35 cases, 1 case dropped off). The patients of the two groups received the secondary prevention medication and routine rehabilitation therapy. Besides, in the interactive scalp acupuncture group, the upper extremity occupational therapy was operated during the needle retaining of scalp acupuncture; and in the traditional scalp acupuncture group, the upper extremity occupational therapy was delivered after the completion of scalp acupuncture. The same points were selected in the two groups such as Fuxiang head area, Fuxiang upper-limb-shoulder point, Fuxiang upper-limb-elbow point and Fuxiang upper-limb-wrist point. The needles were inserted perpendicularly by flying-needle technique and manipulated by triple technique of gentle twisting, heavy pressure and vibrating. The needles were retained for 30 min. Based on the degree of the upper extremity motor impairment, the regimen of the upper extremity occupational therapy was formulated individually and one treatment took 30 min. In the two groups, the therapies were delivered once daily, 5 times a week, lasting 4 weeks. Before and after treatment, the scores of Fugl-Meyer assessment of upper extremity (FMA-UE), Wolf motor function test (WMFT), the modified Barthel index (MBI) and the modified Ashworth scale (MAS) grade in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.@*RESULTS@#After treatment, the scores of FMA-UE, WMFT and MBI were higher than those before treatment (P<0.01), and MAS grade was improved (P<0.05) in the two groups. The scores of FMA-UE, WMFT and MBI in the interactive scalp acupuncture group were higher than those in the traditional scalp acupuncture group (P<0.01, P<0.05), and there was no statistical significance in the difference of MAS grade between the two groups (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The interactive scalp acupuncture can effectively improve the motor function of the hemiplegic upper extremities and the activities of daily living in the patients with ischemic stroke and its efficacy is better than traditional scalp acupuncture. But these two types of scalp acupuncture obtain the similar effect on spasticity.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the potential risk factors for occult lateral cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) to levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and the necessity of super-selective lateral lymph node dissection for patients harboring these metastases. Methods: This prospective study included PTC patients who were operated by the same surgeon in the Department of Head and Neck Surgery of Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from October 2015 through October 2019. Preoperative ultrasound and enhanced Computer Tomography (CT) did not denote suspected enlarged lymph nodes in the lateral neck. All patients underwent lymph node dissection in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ on the basis of original thyroid collar incision after LNM to level Ⅵ was confirmed by preoperative fine needlebiopsy or intraoperative frozen pathology. Results: Of all 143 patients, 74 (51.7%) had occult LNM in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ confirmed by postoperative pathology. The average number of metastasized lymph nodes in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ was 2.64±1.80, and that in level Ⅵ was 3.77±3.27. There was a significant linear positive correlation between the number of metastasized lymph nodes in level Ⅵ and that in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ (r=0.341, P<0.001). That the metastasized lymph nodes in level Ⅵ equals three was the best predictor of occult lateral LNM to levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ. Univariate analysis showed that age <55 years, tumor size ≥2.0 cm, number of metastasized lymph nodes in level Ⅵ ≥3, and percentage of metastasized lymph nodes in the total number of dissected lymph nodes in level Ⅵ >50% were associated with occult LNM in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that number of metastasized lymph nodes in level Ⅵ≥3 was an independent risk factor for occult LNM in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ (P=0.006). Conclusions: Age, tumor size and LNM in level Ⅵ were associated with occult lateral LNM in PTC patients. Lymph node dissection in levels Ⅲ and Ⅳ could be considered for selective patients, since it will help to avoid secondary operation for residual tumor or recurrence resulted from insufficient treatment without increasing the incidence of complications or affecting patients' appearances.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy between a bidirectional-traction reduction device and a traction table in the treatment of femoral neck fracture with femoral neck system (FNS).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in the 46 patients with femoral neck fracture who had been treated at Department of Orthopedics, The First Central Hospital of Baoding from January 2020 to January 2021. There were 19 males and 27 females, aged from 30 to 64 years (average, 47.1 years). According to the Garden classification, 29 cases were type Ⅲ and 17 type Ⅳ. By the reduction method, the patients were assigned into an observation group ( n=24) in which the reduction was assisted by a bidirectional-traction reduction device and a control group ( n=22) in which the reduction was assisted by a traction table. FNS fixation was conducted in both groups. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, reduction time, fluoroscopy frequency, intraoperative blood loss, femoral neck shortening at immediate postoperation and 12 months postoperation, Harris scores of the affected hip at 3, 6, and 12 months postoperation, and incidence of lower extremity venous thrombosis. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender or fracture type between the 2 groups, showing they were comparable ( P>0.05). The observation group needed significantly less operation time [57.5 (54.0, 64.5) min], reduction time [(16.3±3.0) min] and fluoroscopy frequency [(20.5±4.6) times] than the control group did [85.0 (71.3, 92.0) min, (21.0±6.0) min and (29.7±4.7) times, respectively] (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss between 2 groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up for 12 to 22 months (average, 15.5 months). There was no significant difference in femoral neck shortening between the 2 groups at immediate postoperation or 12 months postoperation ( P>0.05). The Harris score of the affected hip in the observation group was significantly better than that in the control group at 3 months after surgery ( P<0.05), but such a significant difference was not observed at 6 or 12 months postoperation ( P>0.05). The incidence of thrombotic complications in the observation group (12.5%, 3/24) was significantly lower than that in the control group (40.9%, 9/22) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In the FNS treatment of femoral neck fracture, compared with a traction table, reduction assisted by a bidirectional-traction reduction device is more advantageous because it is simpler and less time-consuming, incurs less fluoroscopy and leads to better early functional recovery of the affected hip and lower incidence of thrombotic complications.

ABSTRACT

For quantitative analysis of related substances in TSD-1 active pharmaceutical ingredient, structures of prepared impurities were confirmed by NMR and UHPLC-MS, and a high performance liquid chromatographic method was established to determine the related substances in TSD-1. The analytical column was an Agilent ZORBAX Eclipe XDB-C8 (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 µm). The mobile phase A was 50 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate solution (adjusted pH to 5.8 with acetic acid) and the mobile phase B was acetonitrile. The whole run was carried out by gradient elution at a flow rate of 1.0 mL·min-1. The detection wavelength was set at 240 nm and the column temperature was 30 ℃. The resolutions among peaks of TSD-1, impurity A, impurity B, TSD-D, and TSD-F were good. The calibration curves (n = 7) of TSD-1, impurity A, impurity B, TSD-D and TSD-F were linear in their respective weight ranges of 0.242-48.4 µg·mL-1 (r = 1.000 0), 0.244-9.75 µg·mL-1 (r = 0.999 9), 0.244-4.80 µg·mL-1 (r = 0.999 9), 0.254-1.02 µg·mL-1 (r = 0.999 9), and 0.247-0.987 µg·mL-1 (r = 0.999 9). The lower limits of quantitation were 0.244, 0.244, 0.254, and 0.247 µg·mL-1 for impurity A, impurity B, TSD-D, and TSD-F, respectively, and the average recovery of each impurity ranged from 99.08% to 103.00% with high accuracy. TSD-D and TSD-F were not detected in the three batches of TSD-1 active pharmaceutical ingredients, and impurity A and impurity B were not detected beyond the limit. The established HPLC method is simple, accurate, and suitable for determination of related substances of TSD-1, which can provide a valuable reference for the subsequent development of TSD-1.

ABSTRACT

Berberis amurensis (Berberidaceae) is a traditional Chinese medicine, which is often used to treat hypertension, inflammation, dysentery and enteritis. It contains alkaloids, mainly including berberine, berbamine, magnoflorine, jatrorrhizine and palmatine. Berberis amurensis extracts (BAEs) is often orally taken. Oral herbs might be metabolized by intestinal bacteria in the small intestine. However, the interaction between the herb and the gut microbiota is still unknown. In the current study, UPLC/Q-TOF-MS/MS combined with Metabolitepilot and Peakview software was used to identify the metabolites of BAEs in anti-biotic cocktail induced pseudo germ-free rats and normal rats. As a result, a total of 46 metabolites in normal rats were detected and its main metabolic pathways include demethylation, dehydrogenation, methylation, hydroxylation, sulfation and glucuronidation. Only 29 metabolites existed in pseudo germ-free rats. Dehydrogenated metabolites (M29, M30, M34 and M36), methylated metabolites (M33, M41 and M46) and other metabolites were not detected in pseudo germ-free rats. The result implied that the intestinal bacteria have an influence on the metabolism of BAEs. Furthermore, this investigation might contribute to the understanding of the metabolism of BAEs, and further promote its clinical application.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To evaluate the value of the age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity Index (ACCI) in predicting the prognosis and guiding the clinical treatment of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) in patients over 60 years old. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 249 cases of LSCC in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital and First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from 2008 to 2015 was performed. There were 234 males and 15 females, aged from 60 to 88 years. The clinical characteristics, treatment information and follow-up data were collected. ACCI was used to score the comorbidities of the patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn and the patients were divided into high ACCI group and low ACCI group according to the cut-off value of ACCI. Prognostic factors were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, rank sum test was used for comparison between groups, χ2 test was used for enumeration data. Results: Overall survival (OS) was 54.6%, progression-free survival (PFS) was 59.4%, and cancer-specific survival (CSS) was 58.6%. Both the median survival time and PFS time were 60 months. The best cutoff point of the ACCI group was 5. Cox multivariate analysis showed that ACCI was an independent risk factor for OS, PFS and CSS (OR=1.553, 1.499 and 1.534,respectively, all P<0.05). In the high ACCI group, OS (χ2=4.120 and 4.115,P<0.05) and CSS (χ2=4.510 and 5.009,P<0.05) of patients treated with surgery plus radiotherapy and patients with radiotherapy alone were better than those of patients with surgery alone (P<0.05). But in the low ACCI group, there was no significant difference in prognosis among the three treatment regimens (P>0.05). Conclusion: High ACCI offors important prognostic information for LSCC in patients over 60 years old, and can guide clinical treatment options.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the therapeutic effect of Fuzheng Huayu capsule on nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis induced by high trans fatty acid and high sugar diet in mice. Method:Forty SPF male C57/B6 mice were randomly divided into 4 groups (normal group, model group, Obelcholinic acid group, and Fuzheng Huayu capsule group), with 10 mice in each group. Except 10 mice in the normal group, nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis was induced by high-fat and high-sugar diet for 24 weeks in the other 30 mice. From the 25th week of modeling, 4 groups received intragastric administration for 4 weeks, once a day: Fuzheng Huayu capsule group 4.8 g·kg<sup>-1</sup>. Oxycholic acid group 10 mg·kg<sup>-1</sup>. Model control group and normal group received the same volume of normal saline. Liver tissue and serum samples were collected at the end of the 28th week. The pathological changes of liver tissue of mice in each group were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, the degree of liver fibrosis was observed by Sirius red staining, the degree of lipid deposition was observed by oil red O staining, the content of hydroxypropylamine (Hyp) in liver tissue was determined by alkaline hydrolysis, and the change of triglyceride (TG) in liver tissue was detected by enzyme method. Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) activities and fasting blood glucose (FBG) were detected by kit method, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect fasting Insulin (INS) level and calculate the changes of insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), liver fibrosis related mRNA and proteins of were detected by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR), Western blot and Immunohistochemistry. Result:Compared with the normal group, the liver tissue in the model group showed significant collagen fiber deposition, at mostly F2-F3 fibrosis stages, with increased number of inflammatory foci in liver tissue, obvious balloon degeneration and fatty degeneration of liver cells, significantly increased contents of Hyp and TG in liver tissue (<italic>P</italic><0.01), significantly increased activities of ALT and AST in serum and levels of FBG, INS and HOMA-IR (<italic>P</italic><0.01), and increased type I collagen (Col-Ⅰ), Col-Ⅳ, <italic>α</italic>-smooth muscle agonist protein (<italic>α</italic>-SMA) and transforming growth factor-<italic>β</italic> (TGF-<italic>β</italic>) protein and mRNA in liver tissue. Compared with the model group, the collagen fiber deposition in liver tissue of mice in Fuzheng Huayu capsule group was significantly reduced, at mostly F0-F1 fibrosis stages, with significantly improved balloon-like change of hepatocytes, and significantly reduced number of inflammatory foci in lobules (<italic>P</italic><0.05,<italic>P</italic><0.01). Compared with the model group, Fuzheng Huayu capsule can significantly reduce the content of Hyp in liver tissue, the levels of serum ALT and AST, and the expression of Col-Ⅰ, Col-Ⅳ, <italic>α</italic>-SMA and TGF-<italic>β</italic> genes and proteins in mice (<italic>P</italic><0.05,<italic>P</italic><0.01). Conclusion:Fuzheng Huayu capsule has a good therapeutic effect on nonalcoholic fatty liver fibrosis induced by high trans fatty acid and high sugar diet in mice.

ABSTRACT

To compare the efficacies of the two techniques of "micro-hemostasis and micro-cutting" with straight bipolar electrocoagulation forceps and traditional clamp-ligation for hemostasia in thyroid surgery. A total of 228 patients who underwent surgical treatment for thyroid neoplasms in our hospital between January 2015 and December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including 50 males and 178 females, aged 23-68 years old. Of those, 150 cases as electric knife group received traditional thyroid surgery between January 2015 and December 2018 and 78 cases as bipolar electrocoagulation group received thyroid surgery by using the technique of bipolar electrocoagulation with meticulous anatomy between January 2018 and December 2018. The total operation time, single operation time, intraoperative hemorrhage, postoperative drainage volume on the first day, postoperative hoarseness and hypocalcemia were compared between the two groups. SPSS 16.0 was used to analyze the data. The total operation time and intraoperative hemorrhage in the bipolar electrocoagulation group were significantly lower than those in the electric knife group ((59.33±18.29)min (77.21±25.39)min, (14.83±9.22)ml (36.86±11.80)ml, all 0.01). The single operation time of the bipolar electrocoagulation group was shorter than that of the electric knife group((10.25±6.16) min (20.34±7.24)min, (16.25±7.15)min (35.68±8.25)min, (12.12±5.25)min (20.68±7.26)min, value was 3.948,16.262,8.238, all 0.01).There was no significant difference between the two groups in postoperative drainage volume on the first day (0.05) and the incidence of postoperative hoarseness (0.05), while the incidence of hypocalcemia in the bipolar electrocoagulation group(10.26%) was lower than that in the electric knife group(21.33%,χ(2)=4.353, 0.05). The fine dissection for thyroid operation can be achieved by using straight bipolar electrocoagulation tweezers. The use of "micro-hemostasis" and "micro-cutting" technique with bipolar electrocoagulation tweezers can greatly reduce intraoperative bleeding, operation time and postoperative complication.

@#【Objective】 To investigate the inhibitory effect of RGD- modified,MRI visualized nanocarrier(RGD- PEG-g-PEI-SPION)targeting for Survivin siRNA(siRNA)delivery to hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)in nude mice; and to investigate the MRI imaging function of RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION in nude mouse liver cancer. 【Methods】Nude mice were subcutaneously injected with Bel- 7402 cells to establish a subcutaneous tumor- bearing model. Tumor growth inhibition test,HE staining,immunohistochemical staining and tumor cell apoptosis test were used to evaluate the therapeutic effect of RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION targeted Survivin siRNA on liver cancer in nude mouse ;MRI imaging was used to analyze the targeting imaging function of RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION on hepatocellular carcinoma【Results】The subcutaneous tumor- bearing model of nude mice was successfully established,and the tumor volume of subcutaneous graft of RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION /siRNA,PEG-g-PEI-SPION/siRNA,RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION /siNC,PEG-g-PEI-SPION/ siNC and PBS solution in nude mice after first injection in the tail vein for 25 days was 59±8,156±7,202±7,212±9 and 220±8(mm3),respectively. Tumor histological examination showed that the RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION/siRNA group had the widest range of tumor necrosis,the lowest Survivin protein expression,and the number of apoptotic tumor cells significantly increased. Three hours after injection of RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION vector and PEG-g-PEI-SPION vector into the tail vein,the standardized MRI signal intensity of subcutaneous transplanted tumor decreased to(51.6±4.3)% and(88.5±3.2)% ,respectively ,compared with that before injection. 【Conclusion】 RGD- PEG- g- PEI- SPION delivers Survivin siRNA to hepatocellular carcinoma,promotes tumor cell apoptosis,inhibits tumor growth,and achieves good anti-tumor effect;RGD-PEG-g-PEI-SPION has a well targeted MRI imaging function in nude mouse liver cancer tissues.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of percutanous transhepatic intrahepatic portosystemic shunt(PTIPS)for chronic portal vein occlusion and cavernous transformation with symptomatic portal hypertension.Methods The clinical and imaging data of 38 patients with chronic portal vein occlusion and cavernous transformation with symptomatic portal hypertension, who received PTIPS in our hospital from November 2009 to June 2016,were analyzed retrospectively.The differences of the portosystemic pressure gradient(PPG)measured before and after PTIPS procedure was analyzed by a paired samples t-test. All the patients were followed up and the curative effect and operation-correlated complications were observed.Results The PTIPS procedure was technically successful in 36 patients.The other two patients with unsuccessful PTIPS underwent medical treatment,and one of them died of recurrent variceal bleeding 25 months later. Effective portal decompression and free antegrade shunt flow were achieved in 36 patients with successful PTIPS.And the mean PPG was decreased from(25.2±2.9)to(13.2± 1.3) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) before and after PTIPS respectively and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).During the procedure,arterial hemorrhage occurred in two patients who subsequently underwent embolization. Biliary injury occurred in one case and percutanous transhepatic biliary drainage (PTBD)was then performed.The mean follow-up period of the 36 patients was(26.7±10.4)months(range from 3.0 to 74.0 months).Hepatic encephalopathy appeared in 4 cases,among which,3 patients recovered after receiving medical treatment, while 1 patient experienced Grade 3 hepatic encephalopathy and recovered after implanting a smaller cover-stent.Shunt dysfunction occurred in 10 cases,of which 8 cases recovered after shunt revision with stent implantation or ballon angioplasty, while 2 cases underwent anticoagulation by warfarin only. During follow-up period, 7 patients died of liver failure(n=4), hepatic cellular carcinoma(n=1), recurrent varicose vein bleeding(n=1), and renal failure(n=1). The other patients remained asymptomatic and shunt patency. Conclusions PTIPS is both safe and effective for the treatment of symptomatic portal hypertension caused by chronic portal vein occlusion and cavernous transformation.The technical success rate is high,and the short-term curative effect is satisfied.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the expression of extracellular matrix protein Reelin (RELN) and its relationship with the prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The mononuclear cells were collected from bone marrows of multiple myeloma patients by Ficoll gradient density centrifugation, the CD138 cells were then purified by flow cytometry, the mRNA level of RELN was detected by real time PCR. The myeloma patients were divided into 2 groups according to the relative expression levels of RELN. Then the relationship of RELN expression level with clinical data was analyzed statistically.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The high expression of RELN significantly correlated with the percentage of CD138 cells, progress-free and total survival, but did not correlate significantly with DS (P>0.05) and ISS stages (P>0.05). The RELN high expression group showed higher levels of serum M protein, uric acid and serum calcium, lower hemoglobin, and more abnormal FISH results (including RB1 deletion, 1q21 amplification, IgH recombination, P53 deletion, D13S319 deletion) than those in RELN low expression group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Reelin correlates with the progression of multiple myeloma.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe and compare differences of levels of homocysteine (Hcy),von Willebrand factor (vWF) and tissue factor procoagulant activity (TF-PCA) between patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and healthy resi-dents,and analyze relationship between above 3 indicators and coronary heart disease onset.Methods:Clinical data of 95 CHD emergency patients (CHD group),who were treated in our department of cardiology from Apr 2013 to Dec 2015,and 95 healthy residents (healthy control group) were retrospectively analyzed.According to state of an illness,CHD group was further divided into stable angina pectoris (SAP) group (n=33),unstable angina pectoris (UAP) group (n=31) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) group (n=31).Levels of Hcy,vWF and TF-PCA were measured and compared among all groups and different time after onset in CHD patients.Multifactor Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze influ-encing factors of CHD types.Results:Compared with healthy control group,there were significant rise in levels of Hcy [ (9.22 ± 3.45) μmol/L vs.(17.80 ± 6.94) μmol/L],vWF [(122.40 ± 10.18)% vs.(160.13 ± 10.48)%] and TF-PCA [ (30.12 ± 10.49) s vs.(69.45 ± 8.26) s] in CHD group,P=0.001 all.Compared with SAP group,there were signifi-cant rise in levels of Hcy [ (14.30 ± 3.15) μmol/L vs.(20.50 ± 4.97) μmol/L vs.(25.77 ± 6.10) μmol/L],vWF [ (141.56 ± 9.45)% vs.(168.23 ± 11.29)% vs.(185.56 ± 11.40)%] and TF-PCA [ (45.13 ± 11.52) s vs.(53.16 ± 18.45) s vs.(64.49 ± 11.59) s] in UAP group and AMI group,and those of AMI group were significantly higher than those of UAP group,P<0.05 or <0.01.As onset time went by,there were significant reductions in levels of Hcy,vWF and TF-PCA in CHD patients,and all of them accorded with 1h>12h>24h>48h,there existed significant difference be- tween any two time points,P=0.001 all.Multifactor Logistic regression analysis indicated that Hcy,vWF and TF-PCA were independent risk factors for CHD type (OR=2.586~5.058,P=0.001 all).Conclusion:Levels of Hcy,vWF and TF-PCA significantly rise in CHD patients,the more severe disease is,the higher levels are.Along with time goes by,their levels significantly reduce.Combined detection of them can be used for predicting CHD type.The Hcy,vWF and TF-PCA are independent risk factors for CHD type.
