RESUMEN
Objective To determine the improved effect of methylene blue(MB)on cognitive func-tion in brain-inflammatory-aging rats and investigate the underlying mechanism.Methods A total of 38 healthy 12-month-old SD rats were randomly divided into healthy control group,lipopo-lysaccharide(LPS)group,MB vehicle group and MB group,with 8 rats in the control and 10 rats in the other three groups.LPS was injected into the fourth ventricle with aid of a subcutaneous sustained release pump to establish a rat model of brain chronic inflammatory aging.MB of 0.5 mg/(kg·d)was added into the pump in the rats from the MB group.T-maze test and new object recognition test were employed to evaluate the learning and memory abilities of the rats.The acti-vation of microglia and astrocytes in the hippocampal CA1 region of the rats was detected by im-munofluorescence assay.The release of inflammatory factors IL-1β and IL-6 was measured by ELISA,and neuronal death in the CA1 region was assessed by neuronal nuclei(NeuN)fluores-cence staining.Results There was no significant difference in the exploration time for new and old objects between the LPS group and the MB solvent group(P＞0.05).The MB group spent significantly longer time in exploring the new objects than the old object(22.50±4.32 s vs 11.60± 3.01 s,P=0.000).The alternating selection rate of new arm and expression level of NeuN antigen were significantly decreased,and the expression levels of ionized calcium binding adaptor mole-cule-1(Iba-1)and glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)and the contents of IL-1β and IL-6 were obviously increased(P＜0.05)in the LPS group and the MB vehicle group than the healthy con-trol group.Compared with the MB vehicle group,the MB group had notably increased alternating selection rate of new arms and higher NeuN expression level,and decreased Iba-1 and GFAP ex-pression and IL-1β and IL-6 contents(P＜0.05).Conclusion Subcutaneous administration of MB could significantly inhibit the damages of spatial learning and memory abilities in the LPS-induced brain chronic inflammatory aging rats.The mechanism may be closely associated with MB inhibi-ting inflammatory glial cells and protecting hippocampal pyramidal neurons.

RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the effect of acupoint application combined with modified electroconvulsive therapy (MECT) on life control in patients with bipolar disorder.Methods:A total of 98 patients with bipolar disorder who received treatment in The Third People's Hospital of Huzhou from January to December 2022 were included in this study. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group ( n = 49 per group). The control group received acupoint application, while the observation group received acupoint application combined with MECT. All patients were treated for 2 weeks. Before and after treatment, Personal Mastery Scale (PMS), Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), and Bipolar Disorder Self-rating Questionnaire (BSQ) scores were compared between the two groups. The severity of the disease and clinical efficacy were assessed in each group. Results:Before treatment, there were no significant differences in PMS, SPBS, and PSSS scores between the two groups (all P > 0.05). After treatment, PMS scores in the observation and control groups were (31.2 ± 4.5) points and (27.8 ± 4.1) points, respectively, and PSSS scores in the two groups were (66.6 ± 12.3) points and (63.2 ± 10.1) points, respectively. After treatment, PMS and PSSS scores in the observation and control groups were significantly increased compared with those measured before treatment in the corresponding groups [observation group: PMS score (15.6 ± 3.3) points, PSSS score (32.1 ± 6.2) points, control group: PMS score (15.2 ± 3.1) points, PSSS score (34.7 ± 6.6) points, t = 20.50, 16.23, 17.53, 16.54, all P < 0.05]. After treatment, SPBS scores in the observation and control groups [(16.2 ± 3.4) points, (17.7 ± 3.6) points] were significantly decreased compared with those measured before treatment in the corresponding groups [observation group: (30.9 ± 5.8) points, control group: (28.1 ± 5.5) points, t = 15.31, 11.07, both P < 0.05]. After treatment, PMS score in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( t = 4.45, P < 0.05). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in BSQ score between the two groups ( P > 0.05). After treatment, BSQ scores in the observation and control groups [(14.6 ± 6.5) points, (20.1 ± 7.5) points] were significantly decreased compared with those measured before treatment in the corresponding groups [observation group: (39.5 ± 10.2) points, control group: (36.4 ± 9.5) points, t = 12.32, 21.20, both P < 0.05]. After treatment, BSQ score in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 5.60, P < 0.05). The overall response rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( χ2 = 4.90, P < 0.05). The Spearman test showed a significant negative correlation between PMS and BSQ scores ( r = -0.689, P < 0.05). Conclusion:Acupoint application combined with MECT therapy can improve life control in patients with bipolar disorder and increase clinical efficacy .

RESUMEN
Unlike healthy, non-transformed cells, the proteostasis network of cancer cells is taxed to produce proteins involved in tumor development. Cancer cells have a higher dependency on molecular chaperones to maintain proteostasis. The chaperonin T-complex protein ring complex (TRiC) contains eight paralogous subunits (CCT1-8), and assists the folding of as many as 10% of cytosolic proteome. TRiC is essential for the progression of some cancers, but the roles of TRiC subunits in osteosarcoma remain to be explored. Here, we show that CCT4/TRiC is significantly correlated in human osteosarcoma, and plays a critical role in osteosarcoma cell survival. We identify a compound anticarin-β that can specifically bind to and inhibit CCT4. Anticarin-β shows higher selectivity in cancer cells than in normal cells. Mechanistically, anticarin-β potently impedes CCT4-mediated STAT3 maturation. Anticarin-β displays remarkable antitumor efficacy in orthotopic and patient-derived xenograft models of osteosarcoma. Collectively, our data uncover a key role of CCT4 in osteosarcoma, and propose a promising treatment strategy for osteosarcoma by disrupting CCT4 and proteostasis.

RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and treatment strategies of undifferentiated carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells of pancreas (UCOGCP).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 5 patients with UCOGCP who were admitted to Peking University First Hospital from January 2004 to January 2019 were collected. There were 1 male and 4 females, aged from 33 to 71 years, with a median age of 56 years. Patients underwent preoperative laboratory test, imaging and histopatho-logical examinations. Patients with pancreatic head tumors underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, and those with tumors in the body or tail of pancreas underwent distal pancreatectomy combined with splenectomy. All patients underwent standard lymph node dissection. Postoperative adjuvant therapy was individually decided by a multidisciplinary team. Observation indicators: (1) preopera-tive examination and treatment; (2) postoperative histopathological situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect tumor recurrence of patients up to January 2020. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Preoperative examination and treatment: of the 5 UCOGCP patients, CA19-9 was elevated as 65.43 U/mL in only 1 patient preoperatively, while the CA19-9 was normal in other 4 patients. Four patients showed a solid cystic mass on preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) scan, and 1 patient showed a delayed peripheral enhancement of the solid tumor with central necrosis. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan showed hypointense signals on T1, T2 and weighted diffusion sequences in all 5 patients. Three of the 5 patients were resectable according to imaging data, 1 patient had locally advanced tumor, infiltrating the transverse colon, stomach, and partial small intestine, with the portal vein thrombus, and 1 patient had pancreatic head tumor with a liver metastatic lesion of 0.4 cm diameter which was detected on position emission tomography CT and was diagnosed as UCOGCP by endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy. All patients underwent radical resection. Of the 3 patients with resectable tumors, 2 patients underwent pancreaticoduo-denectomy and 1 patient underwent distal pancreatectomy combined with splenectomy. One patient with locally advanced tumor in the body and tail of pancreas underwent distal pancreatectomy + transverse colostomy + partial gastrectomy + portal vein thrombectomy, and 1 patient with pancreatic head tumor and liver metastasis underwent pancreatoduodenectomy combined with left lateral hepatectomy. Of the 5 patients, 2 received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy with single-agent gemcitabine, 1 received albumin-paclitaxel+gemcitabine combination chemotherapy, 1 received S1 as single agent chemotherapy, and 1 did not receive adjuvant chemotherapy. (2) Postoperative histopathological situations: of the 5 patients, 4 cases showed a cystic solid appearance of gross specimens, and 1 case had a solid appearance with central hemorrhagic necrosis. The tumor diameter was 5.2 cm(range, 2.0?14.0 cm). All the 5 patients achieved negative margins. Of the 5 patients, there was 1 case with portal vein invasion, 2 cases with vascular invasion, 3 cases with perineural invasion, and 2 cases with regional lymph node metastasis. One patient may had multiple tumor invasion and metastasis. Four of 5 patients had paraffin specimens available for immuno-histochemical staining. Four patients were positive for both CD68 and vimentin stains, while 3 patients were positive for programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1), including 2 samples with 5% positive cells and 1 sample with 25% positive cells. Postoperative pathological examination showed a large number of spindle histiocytoid sarcoma cells scattered with osteoclast like giant cells and pleomorphic carcinoma giant cells. The tumor mutation burden in the 4 patients was 3.23 Muts/Mb(range, 2.61?21.77 Muts/Mb). Microsatellite status was stable in 4 patients. The next generation sequencing of 4 patients showed that all patients had KRAS mutation which was the most frequently mutation in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Of the 4 patients, 1 case had germline pathogenic mutation in TP53, 1case had somatic mutation in TP53, 1 case had somatic mutation in TP53, BLM, CDKN2A, and 1 case had somatic mutation in ARID1A. (3) Follow-up: 5 patients were followed up for 14?173 months, with a median follow-up time of 46 months. During the follow-up, 4 patients achieved disease-free survival and 1 patient had local recurrence at postoperative 11 months.Conclusions:UCOGCP is a rare variant of pancreatic tumor that exhibits a cystic solid mass in imaging examinations. High expression of PD-L1 is common in UCOGCP. The prognosis for UCOGCP is favorable following radical surgery. Patients may benefit from extended radical surgery even if the tumor has locally progression or distant metastasis.

RESUMEN
Circulating tumor cells (CTC) disseminate from primary tumors by undergoing epithelial mesenchymal transition that allow their entry into the circulation to drive metastatic formation in pancreatic cancer patients.Technological advances in detection and characterization of CTC are conducive to the early diagnosis, differential diagnosis, monitoring disease progression and predicating the probability of canceration or the chemotherapeutic efficacy. Nowadays, detection methods of CTC can be based on immunomagnetic beads technique, cell filtration or microfluidic chips technology, but there are great differences in the sample throughput, CTC recovery rate, purity, and CTC viability among them.Owing to the dilemma in detection methods, the intrinsic relevance between the biological characteristics of CTC and clinical manifestations is still not exactly elucidated. By the improved methodology, next generation sequencing technology and exploring the technique for culturing CTC in vitro and establishing xenotransplanted tumor model in nude mice, more and more biological information will be revealed, and finally, individualized treatment is achieved.
RESUMEN
Objectives: To explore related factors of sociodemographic characteristics and family dynamics of different self-esteem groups of junior middle school students. Methods: A total of 1059 junior middle school students were recruited. The Self-designed sociodemographic characteristic questionnaire, the Self-Esteem Scale and the Selfrating scale of systemic family dynamic were applied. According to SES scores, the high self-esteem group, the middle group and the low group were constructed. The differences of sociodemographic characteristics and systemic family dynamics were compared between these groups by χ2-test and ANCOVA. Ordinal logistic regression was conducted to determine the relation between self-esteem and sociodemographic characteristics and family dynamic factors. Results:The higher self-esteem group had the better of parental education attainment, family life quality, parent relationship, and the more subjects born in Shanghai (Ps ＜ 0. 05). After controlling the above sociodemographic characteristics, family atmosphere scores and individuality scores in the high self-esteem group were the lowest and these in the low group were highest (Ps ＜ 0. 05). Not being born in Shanghai (OR = 1. 57, 95％ CI: 1. 15-2. 14) was a risk factor for low self-esteem, while the lower scores of family atmosphere (OR = 0. 48, 95％ CI: 0. 36-0. 65) and the lower scores of individuality (OR = 0. 66, 95％ CI: 0. 52-0. 83) were protective factors for low self-esteem. Conclusion:It suggests that there are significant different sociodemographic characteristics and family dynamic factors among different self-esteem junior middle school students. Self-esteem may be related to whether being born natively, family atmosphere, and individuality in junior middle school students.

Objective To investigate the effect of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) on the conversion of individuals with ultra-high-risk (UHR) of schizophrenia,and to find out the related influence factors.Methods Patients were randomly divided into study group (50 cases) and control group (49 cases) by the digital random table method.The study group received cognitive behavioral therapy,and the control group only got follow-up questionnaire.Structured Interview for Prodromal Syndromes (SIPS) was used to evaluate psychosis risk symptoms of each UHR individuals at baseline,3 months,6 months,12 months and 18 months respectively and the effects of CBT on conversion and related influencing factors were analyzed.Results There was no significant difference in the conversion rate (P＞ 0.05) between study group and control group after 3 months,but the conversion rate of study group was significantly lower than the control group after 6 months(6.00％ vs 20.41％,P＜0.05),12 months(10.00％ vs 24.49％,P＜0.05)and 18 months(10.00％ vs 28.57％,P＜0.05).CBT could effectively improve conditions for individuals with positive symptom (study group:5.30±3.62,5.04±3.89,4.38±4.13,5.26±3.65,5.94±4.19,control group:5.59±3.62,6.33±5.29,6.98 ±4.96,7.02±5.02,8.39±6.42,F=4.326,P=0.000) of UHR,but the improvement was not significant for negative individuals (F=1.555,P=0.215).CBT could be effective for disorganized symptom (F=6.901,P =0.010) and general symptom (F=7.752,P=0.006) as well.The poor family relationship was the risk factor of conversion to the schizophrenia (OR=3.411,95％CI=1.016-11.453,P=0.047).Conclusion CBT can effectively reduce the conversion rate of UHR individuals.CBT has a good remission effect on the positive symptoms,disintegrating symptoms and general symptoms of UHR.Family relationship affects prognosis of UHR individuals.
RESUMEN
Objective This study is to explore the association between self-differentiation and men-tal health among medical students. Methods Differentiation of self inventory-revised (DSI-R) and univer-sity personality inventory (UPI) were used to measure the self-differentiation and mental health of 526 med-ical students from Grade One to Grade Five at a comprehensive university in Shanghai. Result The mean score of DSI-R was (171.25±19.65). 32.2％ of participants had different levels of mental health prob-lems. Female students got higher score of DSI-R than male students (P=0.007). Statistically significant dif-ferences of medical students' self-differentiation were found among years of school attended (P=0.039). Sta-tistically significant differences of self-differentiation were also found between the first class and the third class of UPI (P<0.001) as well as the second class and the third class of UPI (P=0.004). Ordinal regression analysis indicated that self-differentiation was a risk factor for medical students' mental health (OR=1.036, P=0.000). Conclusion The average score of medical students' self-differentiation was higher than college students of other specialties. But their mental health condition was worse. Medical students with higher self-differentia-tion had worse mental health situation.
RESUMEN
Human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) proteins are overexpressed in a high proportion of gastric cancer (GC) cases and affect the maintenance of cancer stem cell (CSC) subpopulations, which are used as targets for the clinical treatment of patients with HER2-positive GC. Despite improvements in survival, numerous HER2-positive patients fail treatment with trastuzumab, highlighting the need for more effective therapies. In this study, we generated a novel type of genetically modified human T cells, expressing a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR), and targeting the GC cell antigen HER2, which harbors the CD137 and CD3ζ moieties. Our findings show that the expanded CAR-T cells, expressing an increased central memory phenotype, were activated by the specific recognition of HER2 antigens in an MHC-independent manner, and effectively killed patient-derived HER2-positive GC cells. In HER2-positive xenograft tumors, CAR-T cells exhibited considerably enhanced tumor inhibition ability, long-term survival, and homing to targets, compared with those of non-transduced T cells. The sphere-forming ability and in vivo tumorigenicity of patient-derived gastric cancer stem-like cells, expressing HER2 and the CD44 protein, were also inhibited. Our results support the future development and clinical application of this adoptive immunotherapy in patients with HER2-positive advanced GC.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate orthopedic metal artifact reduction algorithm (O-MAR) in CT orthopedic metal artifact reduction at different tube voltages, identify an appropriate low tube voltage for clinical practice, and investigate its clinical application. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The institutional ethical committee approved all the animal procedures. A stainless-steel plate and four screws were implanted into the femurs of three Japanese white rabbits. Preoperative CT was performed at 120 kVp without O-MAR reconstruction, and postoperative CT was performed at 80–140 kVp with O-MAR. Muscular CT attenuation, artifact index (AI) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) were compared between preoperative and postoperative images (unpaired t test), between paired O-MAR and non-O-MAR images (paired Student t test) and among different kVp settings (repeated measures ANOVA). Artifacts' severity, muscular homogeneity, visibility of inter-muscular space and definition of bony structures were subjectively evaluated and compared (Wilcoxon rank-sum test). In the clinical study, 20 patients undertook CT scan at low kVp with O-MAR with informed consent. The diagnostic satisfaction of clinical images was subjectively assessed. RESULTS: Animal experiments showed that the use of O-MAR resulted in accurate CT attenuation, lower AI, better SNR, and higher subjective scores (p < 0.010) at all tube voltages. O-MAR images at 100 kVp had almost the same AI and SNR as non-O-MAR images at 140 kVp. All O-MAR images were scored ≥ 3. In addition, 95% of clinical CT images performed at 100 kVp were considered satisfactory. CONCLUSION: O-MAR can effectively reduce orthopedic metal artifacts at different tube voltages, and facilitates low-tube-voltage CT for patients with orthopedic metal implants.

Background Limbal stem cells (LSCs) deficiency leads to many ocular surface diseases,such as pterygium and so on.ATP-binding cassette transporter B5 (ABCB5) is a recently discovered marker of LSCs.Understanding the expression changes of ABCB5 in pterygium tissue has an important clinical significance for pterygium.Objective This study was to investigate the expression changes of ABCB5 in pterygium tissue.Methods Thirty-seven pterygium tissue specimens were collected from primary pterygium patients who received pterygium surgery,and 22 normal conjunctival tissue specimens were obtained from the strabismus patients and retinal detachment patients during surgery in 474 Hospital of Chinese PLA from January 2015 to November 2015.Immunochemistry was employed to detect the cxpression and location of ABCB5 in the specimens,and the protein and mRNA expressions of ABCB5 were detected by Western blot and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR,respectively.The results were compared between normal conjunctival tissues and pterygium tissue.Results ABCB5 protein was expressed in the cytoplasm and nuclei of stratified squamous epithelium of 22 normal counjunctival tissue specimens,especially in the basal layer cells,and showed obvious polarity in normal conjunctiva.In pterygium group,ABCB5 protein was positively expressed in 91.89％ specimens (34/37) and the expression was absent in 8.11％ specimens (3/37).The relative expression levels of ABCB5 protein were 0.90±0.31 and 0.59±0.41,and those of ABCB5 mRNA were 1.01±0.26 and 0.65±0.32 in the normal conjunctival tissues and pterygium tissue,respectively,showing significant differences between them (protein:t =-0.266,P =0.011;mRNA:t =-4.560,P =0.000).Conclusions Down-regulation of ABCB5 in pterygium indicates the decreasing and losing of LSCs,which may play an important role in the development of pterygium.ABCB5 may be a useful indicator for the prediction of development and recurrence of pterygium and has an important implication for treating evaluation,and it may also be a target for the management of pterygium.
RESUMEN
Objective This study is to explore the correlation between communication skills attitude and general self-efficacy among medical interns. Methods Medical intern students of three medical colleges in Shanghai were participated in this study, and questionnaire survey was conducted by cluster sampling of class. SPSS 19.0 was used to process descriptive analysis, t-test, F-test, correlation analysis and hierarchical regression analysis for data analysis. Result 600 questionnaires were handed out and 575 valid samples were collected. The effective rate was 95.83％. The mean score of positive and negative attitude dimension in CSAS were (51.880 ±7.003) and (31.550 ±5.839). The mean score of GSES was (26.230 ±4.820). A positive correlation was found between positive attitude of communication skills and general self-efficacy (r=0.165, P<0.01). Hierarchical regression analysis indicated that school, cognition about importance of com-munication skills and general self-efficacy significantly predicted positive attitude of communication skill.These three variables could explain 21.8％ of total variance and general self-efficacy can explained 2.1％after control other variables. Conclusion Communication skills attitudes of medical interns is positive on the whole. Enhancing their general self-efficacy is beneficial to improving their positive attitude towards communication skills.

RESUMEN
Objective To identify the expression of CD68-tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and proliferative marker Ki-67 in retroperitoneal malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) and their clinical significance. Methods Clinical data about 35 patients with retroperitoneal MFH managed with surgery from February 2002 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed and all patients were followed up. There were 24 male and 11 female patients, and they were 18-71 years old, with mean age (53.0 ± 10.8) years old. Patients were divided into CD68 positive group (21 patients) and CD68 negative group (14 patients), while they were also divided into Ki-67 low expression (< 20%) group and Ki-67 high expression ( ≥ 20%) group, according to the immunohistochemical staining results. The overall survival time and all clinical data between two groups were compared. Kaplan-Meier estimations, Cox regression analysis, Fisher exact probabilities and Spearman correlations were performed. Results Of the 35 patients, 18 patients received radical resection, and 17 patients received palliative operation. The overall 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates were 65.7%, 22.9%and 8.6%and the median survival was 17 (1-86) months. Factors associated with postoperative survival were FNCLCC grade (x2=7.002, P=0.008), modusoperandi of the tumor resection(x2=7.134, P=0.008), and CD68(x2=4.634, P=0.031) and Ki-67 overexpression (≥20%) (x2=8.898, P=0.003 ) . The difference between gender, age, tumor size, blood loss, removal of the joint organs and adjuvant therapy got no statistical significances (P > 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that survival was associated with modusoperandi of the tumor resection and Ki-67 overexpression (P=0.003, 0.002, respectively). Conclusions Retroperitoneal malignant fibrous histiocytoma is a rare malignancy that display poor prognosis and high mortality. Complete resection remains the mainstream for retroperitoneal malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The patients' life span in CD68 positive or Ki-67 high expression is shorter. CD68 and Ki-67 plays a critical role in retroperitoneal malignant fibrous histiocytoma carcinogenesis and their high expression may be used as a potential survival predictor in patients with retroperitoneal MFH.
