Correlation of early neurodevelopmental features of children with SYNGAP1 variants and their genotypes / 中华医学遗传学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the early neurodevelopmental features of young children with SYNGAP1 variants and their genotype-phenotype correlation.@*METHODS@#Young children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) (< 5 years old) who were referred to the Children's Hospital Affiliated to the Capital Institute of Pediatrics between January 2019 and July 2022 were selected as the study subjects. All children had undergone whole-exome sequencing, comprehensive pediatric neuropsychological assessment, familial segregation analysis, and pathogenicity classification. Meanwhile, young Chinese NDD children (< 5 years old) with pathogenic/likely pathogenic SYNGAP1 variants were retrieved from the literature, with information including detailed clinical and genetic testing, neurodevelopmental quotient (DQ) of the Children Neuropsychological and Behavior Scale-Revision 2016 (CNBS-R2016). Children who did not have a detailed DQ but had their developmental status assessed by a medical professional were also included. The correlation between neurodevelopmental severity, comorbidity and SYNGAP1 variants were summarized.@*RESULTS@#Four young NDD children carrying SYNGAP1 variants were recruited (1 male and 3 females, with a mean age of 34.0 ± 18.2 months), among whom one harboring a novel variant (c.437C>G, p.S146*). Combined with 19 similar cases retrieved from the literature, 23 Chinese NDD young children were included in our study (8 males and 10 females, 5 with unknown sex, with a mean age of 37.1 ± 14.2 months). A loss of function (LOF) variant was found in 19 (82.6%) children. All of the children had presented global developmental delay (GDD) before the age of two. In addition, 16 (69.6%) had seizure/epilepsy at the age of 27.0 ± 12.1 months, among whom 15 had occurred independent of the global developmental delay. Myoclonic and absence were common types of seizures. Compared with those with variants of exons 8 to 15, the severity of developmental delay was milder among children with variants in exons 1 to 5.@*CONCLUSION@#The early neurodevelopment features of the SYNGAP1 variants for young children (< 5 years old) have included global developmental delay and seizure/epilepsy. All of the children may present GDD before the age of two. The severity of developmental delay may be related to the type and location of the SYNGAP1 variants.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Qiling Baitouweng Tang （QLBTWT） on proliferation and apoptosis， Janus kinase 2 （JAK2）/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 （STAT3） signaling pathway and interleukin-10 （IL-10） in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma （DLBCL）. MethodWith human DLBCL cells OCI-LY10 and U2932 as research objects， cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay. After treatment with 0， 4.6， 9.3， 18.7， 37.5， 75， 150 mg·L-1 QLBTWT for 24 h， the half-inhibitory concentration （IC50） of OCL-LY10 and U2932 cells was calculated to be 9.33， 16.13 mg·L-1， respectively， based on which， 9.5， 19， 38 mg·L-1 QLBTWT were selected for subsequent experiments. After 0， 9.5， 19， 38 mg·L-1 QLBTWT treatment for 24 h， the zymogen activities of Caspase-3， Caspase-8 and Caspase-9 in OCI-LY10 and U2932 cells were detected using corresponding activity assay kits （colorimetric）， and the IL-10 expression was detected by enzyme-linked immuno sorbent assay （ELISA）. The apoptosis rate and cell cycle of OCI-LY10 and U2932 cells treated with different concentrations of QLBTWT for 24 h were detected by flow cytometry. The expressions of apoptosis-related proteins ［B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax）， cleaved poly adenosine diphosphate ribose polymerase （cleaved PARP）， cleaved Caspase-3］， JAK2， STAT3， phospho-JAK2 （p-JAK2）， phospho-STAT3 （p-STAT3） pathway proteins， and c-Myc protein in OCL-LY10 and U2932 cells after 24 h treatment with 0， 9.5， 19， 38 mg·L-1 QLBTWT were all tested by Western blot. ResultAfter QLBTWT treatment on OCI-LY10 and U2932 cells for 24 h， cell proliferation was inhibited in each QLBTWT group compared with that in the control group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The zymogens of Caspase-3， Caspase-8 and Caspase-9 were activated （P<0.01）， and there was an increase in cell apoptosis （P<0.05， P<0.01） and cell cycle arrest at Gap phase1 （G1） phase in 9.5， 19 and 38 mg·L-1 QLBTWT group （P<0.05， P<0.01）. After 9.5， 19 and 38 mg·L-1 QLBTWT treatment on OCI-LY10 and U2932 cells for 24 h， the expressions of Bcl-2， p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 proteins were decreased （P<0.01）， and the expressions of Bax， cleaved PARP and cleaved Caspase-3 proteins were increased （P<0.01）， but no significant change was observed in the expressions of JAK2 and STAT3 proteins. Compared with the conditions in the control group， the expressions of c-Myc， p-JAK2， and p-STAT3 proteins were down-regulated in 19 mg·L-1 QLBTWT group and 19 mg·L-1 QLBTWT+10 μg·L-1 IL-10 group （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated in 10 μg·L-1 IL-10 group （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while there was no difference in JAK2/STAT3 proteins. ConclusionQLBTWT can inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of human DLBCL cells OCI-LY10 and U2932， and the potential mechanism may be related to the regulation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Analysis of the characteristics of SPTB gene variants among 16 children with Hereditary spherocytosis / 中华医学遗传学杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the clinical characteristics and spectrum of SPTB gene variants among 16 Chinese children with Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) and explore their genotype-phenotype correlation.@*METHODS@#Sixteen children who were diagnosed with HS at the Affiliated Hospital of Capital Institute of Pediatrics from November 2018 to July 2022 were selected as the research subjects. Genetic testing was carried out by whole exome sequencing. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing and subjected to bioinformatic analysis and prediction of 3D structure of the protein. Correlation between the SPTB genotypes and clinical phenotypes was analyzed using Chi-squared test.@*RESULTS@#The male-to-female ratio of the HS patients was 6 : 10, with the median age being 7-year-and-10-month. Clinical features of the patients have included anemia, reticulocytosis and gradual onset of splenomegaly. Mild, moderate and severe anemia have respectively occurred in 56.25% (9/16), 31.25% (5/16) and 12.50% (2/16) of the patients. SPTB gene variants were detected in all patients, among which 10 were unreported previously and 7 were de novo in origin. Loss of function (LOF) variants accounted for 93.75% (15/16). Only one missense variant was detected. Eleven, 4 and 1 of the variants had occurred in the repeat domain, CH1 domain, and dimerization domain, respectively. There was no significant correlation between the type or domain of the SPTB gene variants with the clinical features such as severity of anemia (x² = 3.345, P > 0.05). All of the variants were predicted to be pathogenic or likely pathogenic based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics.@*CONCLUSION@#Mild to moderate anemia are predominant clinical features of the HS children harboring a SPTB gene variant, for which LOF variants are the main mutational type. The clinical feature of HS is unaffected by the type of the variants.

Effects of different endometrial preparation regimens on pregnancy outcomes and obstetrical outcomes for first euploid single blastocyst transfer after PGT-A / 实用医学杂志

Objective To explore the effects of different endometrial preparation regimens on the pregnancy and obstetrical outcomes of single euploid blastocyst transfer after preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies(PGT-A).Methods The clinical data on patients with single euploid blastocyst transfer after PGT-A in our center from September 2015 to July 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.According to the different preparation regimens,the patients were divided into a natural cycle group(n = 80 cycles)and a hormone replacement cycle group(n = 259 cycles).The differences of pregnancy and obstetrical outcomes between the two groups were com-pared.Binary logistic regression was used to explore the influencing factors of pregnancy and obstetrical outcomes after PGT-A.The pregnancy outcomes of different endometrial preparation regimens were further explored by age stratification.Results As compared with that in the natural cycle group,the rate of high-quality blastocyst was significantly higher in the hormone replacement cycle group,but the live birth rate was lower and the abortion rate was higher(P<0.05).There was no statistical difference in the clinical pregnancy rate between the two groups.The incidence of cesarean section and macrosomia was higher in the hormone replacement cycle group than that in the natural cycle group,while the rate of low birth weight was lower,but there were no significant differences(P>0.05).Binary logistic regression showed that female age was an independent influencing factor of abortion.Female age and the days of blastocyst development were independent influencing factors of live birth.However,endometrial prepa-ration regimen was not a factor affecting pregnancy and obstetrical outcomes(P>0.05).The results of further analysis showed that the live birth rate in the natural cycle group was significantly higher than that in the hormone replacement cycle group,while the abortion rate in the natural cycle group was significantly lower than that in the hormone replacement cycle group for female patients aged over 35(P<0.05).Conclusions The endometrial preparation regimens did not affect the pregnancy and obstetrical outcomes of patients receiving single euploid blas-tocyst transfer after PGT-A.However,in the older patients,the natural cycle regimen can obtain a higher live birth rate and a lower abortion rate.

Objective:To explore the effect of cluster nursing in robot-assisted surgery for the treatment of reducible atlantoaxial dislocation.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 41 patients with reducible atlantoaxial dislocation treated by robot-assisted surgery in Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from January 2019 to December 2021, including 28 males and 13 females; aged 18-79 years [(45.2±10.3)years]. Ninteen patients received cluster nursing (cluster nursing group), with operating room nursing team set up on the basis of routine nursing and performed cluster nursing in line with evidence-based medicine. Twenty-two patients received routine nursing (routine nursing group). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, frequency of intraoperative C-arm fluoroscopy, time of drainage tube placement and chief surgeon′s satisfaction for nursing were compared between the two groups. The degree of pain was evaluated by pain numerical score (NRS) at 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 month and 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The neck disability index (NDI) was assessed at 1 day before operation, 1 month after operation, 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-18 months [(16.7±3.7)months]. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, frequency of C-arm fluoroscopy and time of drainage tube placement in cluster nursing group were (82.9±10.4)minutes, (105.9±11.8)ml, (3.8±0.6)times and (1.5±0.4)days, while those in routine nursing group were (125.7±12.8)minutes, (208.4±13.8)ml, (9.7±2.3)times and (3.6±0.6)days, respectively (all P<0.01). The chief surgeon′s satisfaction for nursing was 94.7% (18/19) in cluster nursing group and was 68.2% (15/22) in routine nursing group ( P<0.05). The NRS in cluster nursing group was (6.2±0.4)points, (6.0±0.7)points, (4.9±1.1)points, (2.7±0.5)points, (1.9±0.4)points, (1.8±0.4)points and (1.5±0.3)points at 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 1 month and 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up, while it was (7.6±0.6)points, (6.8±1.2)points, (5.8±1.5)points, (4.2±0.8)points, (3.4±0.7)points, (2.6±0.5)points and (2.2±0.5)points in routine nursing group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no significant difference in the NDI between the two groups at 1 day before operation, but the NDI in cluster nursing group was 20.6±4.5, 14.6±2.8 and 10.7±2.5 at 1 month and 3 months after operation and at the last follow-up, while it was 26.9±4.1, 18.7±3.3 and 13.7±1.7 in routine nursing group (all P<0.01). There was no hematoma, infection or implant-related complications in both groups .Conclusion:For robot-assisted surgery in the treatment of reducible atlantoaxial dislocation, cluster nursing is associated with shortened operation time and time of drainage tube placement, decreased intraoperative blood loss and frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy, increased chief surgeon′s satisfaction for nursing, reduced pain and accelerated functional recovery.

OBJECTIVE To establish the index system of quality evaluation standard for pharmacist training in cough and wheeze pharmaceutical care （CWPC） outpatient department， and to provide a basis for the selection of CWPC pharmacist training teachers and the improvement of training plans. METHODS Based on Kirkpatrick model， using the Delphi method， a total of 15 experts from 13 tertiary hospitals in 10 provinces in China were consulted to establish the standard index system of the quality evaluation for CWPC pharmacists training. Analytic hierarchy process （AHP） was adopted to determine the weights of each indicator and quantify the index system according to the weights of indicators at all levels. RESULTS The coefficient of expert authority was 0.810， the judgment coefficient was 0.727， and the familiarity coefficient was 0.893. The Kendall coordination coefficient of each index was 0.308-0.687. The P values of χ2 test were all less than 0.05， which indicated that the degree of coordination of the experts was high. After two rounds of correspondence， Kirkpatrick model-based index system of quality evaluation standard for CWPC pharmacist training was determined. The index system included 4 first-level indexes （participants’ reaction layer， learning gain layer， behavior improvement layer， training outcome layer）， 12 second-level indexes （such as training needs， teaching methods， theoretical knowledge， practical skills， job abilities， patient benefits， etc.） and 44 third-level indexes （such as clear training objectives， core system of CWPC， special device operation and evaluation， professional knowledge related to the treatment of cough and wheeze patients， promoting the construction of CWPC， improving patient compliance）. CONCLUSIONS The constructed index system of quality evaluation standard for CWPC pharmacist training has a certain level of authority and scientificity， and provides a scientific theoretical basis for quality evaluation of CWPC pharmacist training.

Standards for the interpretation of constitutional copy number gain: Recommendation from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen) / 中华医学遗传学杂志

Copy number variants (CNVs) are common causes of human genetic diseases. CNVs detection has become a routine component of genetic testing, especially for pediatric neurodevelopmental disorders, multiple congenital abnormalities, prenatal evaluation of fetuses with structural anomalies detected by ultrasound. Although the technologies for CNVs detection are continuously improving, the interpretation is still challenging, with significant discordance across different laboratories. In 2020, the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and the Clinical Genome Resource (ClinGen) developed a guideline for the interpreting and reporting of constitutional copy number variants, which introduced a quantitative, evidence-based scoring framework. Here, we detailed the key points of interpreting the copy number gain based on the guideline, used six examples of different categories to illuminate the scoring process and principles. We encourage a professional understanding and application of this guideline for the detected copy number gains in China in order to further improve the clinical evaluation accuracy and consistency across different laboratories.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia in the elderly, and there is no specific treatment to stop or reverse its progression. Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is an important entry point for early diagnosis and prevention of AD. More and more studies have explored the risk factors and biomarkers for conversion from MCI to AD, and a series of risk prediction models have been established. This article analyzes and summarizes the different predictors and risk prediction models so as to provide basis for early identifying the high-risk group of AD, managing the controllable risk factors, and providing references for the selection and improvement of these models.

Comparison of efficacy of systematic nursing in operating room and routine nursing in reducing intraoperative pressure injury in patients with spine fracture combined with spinal cord injury / 中华创伤杂志

Objective:To compare the effect of systematic nursing in operating room and routine nursing in reducing intraoperative stress injury in patients with spinal fracture and spinal cord injury.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 285 patients with cervical or thoracolumbar fracture associated with spinal cord injury admitted to Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2018 to December 2019, including 168 males and 127 females, with the age of 38-59 years [(47.8±8.5)years]. All patients underwent posterior decompression and fusion with internal fixation. Of all, 138 patients received systematic nursing in operating room including systematic evaluation and management before, during and after operation (observation group), and 147 patients received routine nursing including only intraoperative preventive care of pressure ulcer (control group). The incidence of pressure injury on the day after operation, degree of injury and location of injury at postoperative 3 days, and area of injury on the day after operation and at postoperative 3 days were compared between the two groups. The degree of injury was evaluated using the new stress injury staging assessment published by the American National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (NPUAP).Results:The incidence of pressure injury in observation group [5.1% (7/138)] was lower than that in control group [12.2% (18/147)] on the day after operation ( P<0.05). The incidence of stage I, stage II, and stage III pressure injury in observation group [2.9% (4/138), 2.2% (3/138), 0.0%] was also lower than that in control group [8.2% (12/147), 3.4% (5/147), 0.6% (1/147)] at postoperative 3 days ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of pressure injury in the knee, chest, face and anterior superior iliac spine between the two groups ( P>0.05). The total proportion of pressure injury in the face and anterior superior iliac spine was 71% (5/7) in observation group, showing no significant difference from that in control group [83% (15/18)] ( P>0.05). The area of injury was (3.2±1.2)cm 2 and (3.2±1.1)cm 2 in observation group on the day after operation and at postoperative 3 days, lower than that in in control group [(5.1±1.5)cm 2 and (5.1±1.4)cm 2] ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with the routine nursing, systematic nursing in operating room can significantly reduce the incidence, degree and area of intraoperative pressure injury in patients with spinal fracture accompanied by spinal cord injury, and deserves clinical promotion.

Mechanism of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation in improving the symptoms and gastric accommodation in patients with functional dyspepsia / 中华消化杂志

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy and mechanisms of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) in the treatment of postprandial distress syndrome (PDS) in functional dyspepsia (FD).Methods:A double-blinded, randomized, controlled study was conducted. At Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital, Medical School Zhejiang University 40 patients aged 18-70 years old who met the Rome Ⅳ diagnostic criteria of PDS were prospectively enrolled. After informed consent, the patients were randomly assigned to TEAS group or sham-TEAS group. The patients in the TEAS group received transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation at acupoints Zusanli and Neiguan, and those in the sham-TEAS group underwent stimulation at other mimic acupoints for four weeks. The symptoms, gastric accommodation (initial satiety volume (ISV) and maximum tolerable volume (MTV), time of half gastric emptying of solid food ( T1/2) and heart rate variability (high frequency, low frequency and ratio of low frequency to high frequency) were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. The expression levels of inflammatory cytokines in duodenal mucosa were also evaluated by polymerase chain reaction in PDS patients and 24 healthy volunteers. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and chi square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 26 PDS patients were enrolled in the study, 13 cases each in the TEAS group and sham-TEAS group. Between the patients of the two groups, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, or score of 36-item short form health survey (SF-36), score of self-rating anxiety scale (SAS), score of self-rating depression scale (SDS), score of dyspeptic symptom severity index (DSSI), ISV, MTV, T1/2 or heart rate variability indexes (high frequency, low frequency and ratio of low frequency to high frequency) before treatment (all P>0.05). After treatment, the DSSI score of TEAS group was lower than that of sham-TEAS group (13.5±5.3 vs. 19.9±9.3), the values of ISV and MTV were both higher than those of sham-TEAS group ((180.0±44.6) mL vs. (121.9±61.0) mL, (480.4±200.7) mL vs. (338.5±108.8) mL), and the differences were all statistically significant ( t=2.18, 2.77 and 2.24, all P<0.05). After treatment there was no statistically significant difference in T1/2 between TEAS group and sham-TEAS group ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in T1/2 between before and after treatment in patients of TEAS group ( P>0.05). After treatment, the high frequency increased (5.3±1.2 vs. 4.0±0.9) and the ratio of low frequency to high frequency decreased (1.0±0.2 vs. 1.3±0.2), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.31 and 3.73, both P<0.01). The expression levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6) mRNA in mucosa of duodenal bulb and descending duodenum of PDS patients were both higher than that of healthy control group (0.68, 0.11 to 6.74 vs. 0.03, 0.02 to 0.25; 6.46, 1.35 to 12.62 vs. 0.86, 0.32 to 2.90), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-2.24 and -2.03, P=0.02 and 0.04). After TEAS treatment for four weeks, the expression of IL-6 mRNA in duodenal bulb mucosa decreased compared with that before treatment in TEAS group (0.04, 0.01 to 0.06 vs. 0.23, 0.09 to 3.66) and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.07, P=0.04). Conclusions:TEAS can improve the gastric accommodation and dyspeptic symptoms in PDS patients. The mechanism may be related with the vagal pathway mediating and regnlating the expression of inflammatory cytokine IL-6 in duodenal bulb mucosa.

METHODS：Taking the pharmaceutical enterprises listed in Shanghai and Shenzhen stock markets as the research objects ，the social responsibility texts and environmental protection texts of the included enterprises from 2017 to 2019 were classified and analyzed according to the three dimensions of time ，ownership and drug production type by using ROST Content Mining 6.0 software. The semantic network and node centrality were analyzed. RESULTS ：From the social responsibility texts of the included enterprises，it could be seen that from the perspective of time dimension ，the included enterprises paid more attention to “employees”，“social responsibility ”and“development”in 2017-2019，and the high-frequency words in the three years were relatively stable. From the perspective of ownership ，state-owned holding enterprises paid more attention to “development”and “targeted poverty reduction ”，while private holding enterprises paid more attention to “employees”，and collective holding enterprises paid more attention to “social responsibility ”. From the perspective of drug production type ，the word frequency of “targeted poverty reduction ”of TCM pharmaceutical enterprises was higher. From the environmental protection texts of the included enterprises，it could be seen that from the time dimension ，the included enterprises paid more and more attention to environmental protection in recent years ，and the description of environmental protection in the texts was more detailed. From the perspective of ownership，private holding enterprises paid more attention to environmental protection than collective holding enterprises and state-owned enterprises. From the perspective of drug production type ，due to the different types of drugs ，chemical drugs ，TCM， biological drugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients enterprises had their own characteristics in pollutants and their treatment processes. The results of semantic network and node centrality analysis showed that ，“development”，“protection” and “targeted poverty reduction ”were three high-frequency words with high centrality in the semantic analysis network of social responsibility text ，the middle centrality was 5.555，1.695，1.521 respectively；“emission”and“testing”were two key words with high centrality in the semantic analysis network of environmental protection texts ，the middle centrality was 3.856， 1.914 respectively，which further reflected that the included enterprises paid more attention to the above issues in terms of social responsibility performance and environmental protection. CONCLUSIONS ：The listed pharmaceutical enterprises have a broad consensus on social responsibility in China ，and have well fulfilled their social responsibility ，which is well combined with the current social hot spots. For environmental protection ，as a high pollution industry ，the pharmaceutical enterprises also performs the responsibility of environmental protection.

Study on the Effects of Danhong Injection on Gene Expression Profile of Acute Myocardial Infarction Model Rats by Gene Chip Technique / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the effects of Danhong injection （DHI） on gene expression profile of acute myocardial infarction （AMI） model rats. METHODS： Male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group， model group and DHI group （0.76 mL/kg）， with 10 rats in each group. AMI model was established by ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery in model group and DHI group. After modeling， sham operation group and model group were given constant volume of normal saline intramuscularly， and DHI group was given relevant medicine intramuscularly， once a day， for consecutive 14 days. After last administration， myocardial tissue in the marginal zone of infarction was separated. The change of gene expression profile was detected by gene chip technique. Using fold-change of relative expression as index， differentially expressed microRNA （miRNA） were screened. On the basis of retrieving their corresponding genes， gene ontology （GO） and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were carried out by using DAVID bioinformatics resource database and KEGG pathway database， respectively. TargetScan database was used to predict the target gene messenger RNA （mRNA） corresponding to differentially expressed miRNA. Cytoscape 3.6.1 software was used to construct and analyze the miRNA-mRNA network. Agilent GeneSpring GX v11.5 software was used to screen target genes and miRNA related to inflammation in the above networks. RESULTS： Compared with sham operation group， there were 22 differentially expressed miRNAs in model group， 5 up-regulated and 17 down-regulated. Compared with model group， there were 26 differentially expressed miRNAs in DHI group， and all of them were up-regulated. The differentially expressed miRNAs related to DHI therapy for AMI included rno-let-7a-5p， rno-let-7d-5p， rno-let-7f-5p， rno-miR-26b-5p， rno-miR-29b-3p， cel-miR-39-3p， cel-miR-39-5p， rno-miR-142-5p， rno-miR-191a-5p， rno-miR-409a-3p. Results of GO analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that differentially expressed miRNAs were mainly concentrated in membrane-bound organelles， cytoplasm， endometrial system and other cell components. The molecular functions such as protein binding and ion binding were exerted through biological processes such as anatomical structure development， multicellular tissue development and development process，which were mainly enriched in calcium signaling pathway， PPAR signaling pathway， VEGF signaling pathway， cell apoptosis， glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchored biosynthesis， valine， leucine and isoleucine degradation， etc. miRNA-mRNA network analysis showed that there were 25 target gene mRNAs corresponding to differentially expressed miRNA and 24 miRNAs related to it. There were 6 inflammation-related target genes （IL6， IL1b， TNF， TLR4， CRP， CXCL12） in this network， involving 19 differentially expressed miRNAs. CONCLUSIONS： The therapeutic effect of DHI on AMI may be related to regulating the expression of related miRNA， affecting signal transduction of calcium ion， PPAR and VEGF pathways， and regulating the secretion of inflammatory markers such as interleukin， chemokine and C-reactive protein.

Analysis of related factors for clinical characteristics and the outcome in centenarian hospitalized patients / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective To investigate the health status of centenarian hospitalized patients and analyze the risk factors for in-hospital death in Nanjing district.Methods All centenarians hospitalized patients who were discharged from wards of 10 upper first-class general hospitals in Nanjing district during the past five years were retrieved from their hospital information systems.Then,a retrospective study was performed on centenarians' data of general information,laboratory test results,Charlson comorbidity index (CCI),neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and shock index(SI),etc.were calculated and collected.Relevant risk factors for in-hospital death were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 156 patients aged 100 years and over,with an average age of (101.0±2.1)years,were enrolled during the past 5 years.The top 3 admitting diagnosis for the patients were pulmonary infection(30.1％,47/156 cases),coronary heart disease(10.9％,17/156 cases)and cerebrovascular disease(7.1％,11/156 cases).Fifty patients died during hospitalization,with a mortality of 32.1％ (50/156).Pneumonia was the most common admitting diagnosis(40.0％,20/50 case).Among causes of death,the combined admitting diagnosis with dementia,chronic renal insufficiency,one or more basic disease were significantly associated with death.There were statistically significant differences between bad vs.good vs.indifferent prognosis in heart rate,shock index,leukocyte count,neutrophil count,NLR,hemoglobin,albumin,albumin/globulin,fasting blood glucose,blood urea nitrogen,serum creatinine,C-reactive protein(CRP)and CCI levels.Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that NLR≥13.18,fasting blood glucose ≥7.56 mmol/L,blood urea nitrogen ≥20.74 mmol/L,CRP≥65 mg/L and CCI≥3 might be predictors for in-hospital death in the cohort(OR =48.91、3.43、1.22、6.55、1.55,all P＜0.05).Conclusions Pulmonary infection is the most common reason for admission and the cause of death in centenarian inpatients.Comorbidities increase the risk of death.To lower in-hospital mortality,CCI and other assessment indicators should be used to strengthen the comprehensive assessment and chronic disease management of hospitalized centenarians.Infectious diseases should be prevented beforehand.

The correlation between TC/HDL-C ratio and hypersensitivity C reactive protein and diabetic retinopathy / 国际检验医学杂志

Objective To study the relationship between the abnormal blood fat components and the serum hypersensitivity C reaction protein concentration and the progression of diabetic retinopathy.Methods Fundus examination was carried out to inpatients in the Department of Endocrinology in the hospital from From July 2015to July 2017.These patients were divided into three groups according to results of fluorescein sodium contrast:The non retinopathy group (group A) , the non proliferative retinopathy group (group B) , the retinopathy proliferative phase group (group C) .The content of blood fat component and serum hypersensitivity C reaction protein in the experimental cases were measured, and the ratio of TC/HDL-C was calculated.The statistic software of SAS9.4was used for statistical processing.Results The concentration of the serum hypersensitive C reaction protein in patients with diabetic retinopathy was significantly increased and the ratio of TC/HDL-C increased significantly (P<0.05) .The hs-CRP concentration and TC/HDL-C ratio of the three study groups were compared with those of the healthy control group:the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05) .Among them, the hs-CRP concentration and TC/HDL-C ratio of group A were compared with group B and group C respectively and the difference were statistically significant (P<0.05) .There was no significant difference in hs-CRP concentration and TC/HDL-C ratio between group B and group C (P>0.05) .Linear correlation analysis was used to analyze the concentration of serum hypersensitive C reaction protein and the ratio of TC/HDL-C.It was found that there was a positive correlation between them, and there was a positive synergistic effect.Conclusion The measurement of serum hypersensitive C reactive protein has important clinical value for the discovery, evaluation and prognosis of diabetic retinopathy.The abnormalities of the blood fat component reflected by the TC/HDL ratio are also an important factor in assessing the progression of diabetic retinopathy.

The effect of butylphthalide on cell necroptosis in cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury model mice / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

Objective To explore the protective effect and mechanism of butylphthalide on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in mice.Methods The cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury model was established by middle cerebral ischemia occlusion (MCAO).Thirty mice were divided into sham group,ischemia reperfusion group(I/R group) and butylphthalide group (NBP group) with 10 in each group.Neurological defect score and brain infarction volume were detected by TTC to evaluate the treatment effects of butylphthalide.Western blot was used to detect expression of RIP,RIP3 and AIF.Immunocoprecipitation (IP) was used to detect the interaction of AIF and RIP3.Immunofluorescence(IF) was used to detect the nuclear translocation and co-localization of AIF and RIP3.Results Compared with the I/R group,NBP treatment reduced the neurological defect score (I/R:(2.60 ± 0.22),NBP:(1.90 ± 0.23),t =2.18,P＜ 0.05) and brain infarction volume(I/R:(38.32±2.22) ％,NBP:(25.23±2.70) ％,t=3.74,P＜0.01).I/R elevated the expression of RIP1 and RIP3 whereas NBP significantly inhibited the expression of these two proteins (RIP1 (I/R:0.99±0.24,NBP:0.47±0.10,t=2.71,P＜0.05);RIP3 (I/R:0.52±0.17,NBP:0.15±0.04,t=2.87,P＜0.05)).I/R and NBP had no significant effects on the expression of AIF,but the IP results showed that I/R increased the interaction between AIF and RIP3 compared with the sham group.NBP alleviated the interaction between AIF and RIP3.IF results showed that the colocalization and nuclear expression of AIF and RIP3 increased after I/R whereas NBP treatment decreased the effect induced by I/R.Conclusion Butylphthalide alleviated cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in mice through inhibiting the cell necroptosis.The mechanisms may correlate with decreasing the expression of RIP1 and RIP3 and alleviating the interaction and nuclear translocation of AIF and RIP3.
