Inhibition of microRNA-184 reduces H2O2-mediated cardiomyocyte injury via targeting FBXO28.

OBJECTIVE: Cardiovascular disease, especially coronary heart disease, is one of the diseases with the highest mortality. A large number of studies have found that microRNAs (miRNAs) are closely related to the occurrence and development of myocardial ischemia. This article mainly focused on the regulation of miR-184 on oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in myocardial infarction (MI). MATERIALS AND METHODS: MiR-184 inhibitor or negative control (NC) were transfected into H9c2 cells. Then, H9c2 cells were treated with H2O2 to construct a cardiomyocyte injury model. H9c2 cells were divided into 4 groups: control group, H22O2 treatment group, H2O2 + NC group, and H2O2 + miR-184 inhibitor group. The oxidative stress of H9c2 cells was observed by the expression levels of SOD, ROS, and MDA in each group. The inflammatory response of H9c2 cells was reflected by the expression of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1ß detected by ELISA kits. Western blot was used to detect the expression of cleaved Caspase-3, Bcl-2, Bax and F-box protein 28 (FBXO28). Quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR) was utilized to detect miR-184 expression. TdT-mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL) staining and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay were used to observe the apoptosis and cell viability. The Luciferase reporter experiment was used to prove whether miR-184 could target FBXO28. RESULTS: MiR-184 expression was significantly increased in H2O2-induced H9c2 cell injury model. After H9c2 cells were transfected with miR-184 inhibitor to silence miR-184, the levels of ROS and MDA were markedly reduced, while the expression of SOD was greatly increased. At the same time, the expression of inflammatory factors was greatly reduced. Silencing miR-184 also increased Bcl-2 expression, and reduced the expression of cleaved Caspase-3 and Bax. In addition, compared with the H2O2 + NC group, the number of TUNEL positive cells in the H2O2 + miR-184 inhibitor group was also significantly reduced, and the cell viability was remarkably increased. The Luciferase reporter experiment proved that FBXO28 is a target gene of miR-184. CONCLUSIONS: MiR-184 expression was increased in H2O2-treated H9c2 cells. Inhibition of miR-184 markedly inhibited oxidative stress and inflammation in cardiomyocytes, thereby inhibiting cardiomyocyte apoptosis, through the regulation of FBXO28.

[Analysis on the current situation and influencing factors of mental health among female employees].

Objective: To understand the mental health status of female workers in different industries in China, and to explore the influence of age, family per capita income, working hours and other factors on the mental health of female employees. Methods: From May to July 2016, a cluster sampling survey was conducted among female workers from 15 Provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government) in different industries. A total of 60230 questionnaires were distributed and 57777 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 95.9%. The survey included the basic information and Symptom Self-assessment Scale, etc. The measured data were in accordance with the normal distribution by normality test and were expressed as x±s. The rates of counting data were compared using the χ(2) test. And unconditioned logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors. Results: There were significant differences in the detection rates of mental health problems among female employees of different ages, marital status, education level, family per capita income, industry classification, working hours, and frequent night shifts (P<0.01) . The top 3 factors of positive mental health problems were obsessive-compulsive symptoms (23.7%) , depression (16.0%) and interpersonal sensitivity (15.4%) . The factors such as age, education level, family per capita income, industry classification, working hours and frequent night shifts had statistical significances on the risk of female employees' mental health problems (P<0.05) . Female employees aged 30-39, aged 40-49, with high school education to junior college, bachelor degree or above, engaged in tertiary industry, working time of 8-9 h/d, working time of 9-11 h/d, working time of more than 11 h/d and regular night shifts had higher risk of mental health problems (OR=1.199, 1.187, 1.296, 1.539, 1.236, 1.674, 1.601, 1.358, 1.393, P<0.05) . Conclusion: The mental health problems of female workers are still serious, we should pay attention to the illegal long-term work and night-shift work, and take effective health promotion measures to effectively improve the mental health level of female workers.

Bone-filling mesh container versus percutaneous kyphoplasty in treating Kümmell's disease.

Kümmell's disease (eponymous name for osteonecrosis and collapse of a vertebral body due to ischemia and non-union of anterior vertebral body wedge fractures after major trauma) cannot heal spontaneously. Bone-filling mesh container (BFMC) can significantly relieve pain, help the correction of kyphosis, and may prevent cement leakage. This pilot study may provide the basis for the design of future studies. PURPOSE: To compare the effectiveness and safety of BFMC and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for treatment of Kümmell's disease. METHODS: From August 2016 to May 2018, 40 patients with Kümmell's disease were admitted to Guizhou Provincial People's Hospital. Among them, 20 patients (20 vertebral bodies) received PKP (PKP group) and the other 20 received BFMC (BFMC group). Operation time, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Cobb's angle changes, and related complications were recorded. RESULTS: All patients underwent operations successfully. VAS scores and ODI of both groups at each postoperative time point were lower than preoperatively, with statistically significant difference (p < 0.05). Postoperative Cobb's angle of both groups postoperatively was lower than preoperatively (p < 0.05). Cement leakage occurred in eight vertebrae (8/20) in the PKP group and in one vertebra (1/20) in the BFMC group. No complications such as pulmonary embolism, paraplegia, or perioperative death occurred during operation in both groups. Adjacent vertebral refractures occurred in five patients (5/20) in the PKP group and in four patients (4/20) in the BFMC group, with no significant difference in the incidence rate of refractures in both groups but the material is too small to verify statistically. CONCLUSIONS: Both PKP and BFMC technologies can significantly relieve pain and help the correction of kyphosis while treating Kümmell's disease. Moreover, the BMFC may prevent cement leakage.

[The prevalence and influencing factors of work-related musculoskeletal disorders of oilfield workover workers].

Objective: To investigate work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) of workover workers in an oilfield and explore the influencing factors. Methods: In June 2016, 685 workover workers were selected as working group, and 191 other workers exposed to toxic and harmful operations were selected as control group. Cross sectional investigation was conducted by self-made questionnaire, and the influencing factors of musculoskeletal disorders were analyzed by unconditional multivariate Logistic regression. Results: The total annual prevalence of WMSDs for workover workers was 90.5%, with the highest prevalence of low back pain of 71.5%. The prevalence of WMSDs increased with the increase of service age, and the difference between the drinkers was higher than that of the non drinkers (P<0.05) . Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that working age, drinking and the posture of lifting heavy objects were risk factors for WMSDs in workover workers. Conclusion: The WMSDs appears to be a serious problem in oilfield workover workers. Corresponding measures should be taken to prevent the risk factors and control the occurrence of diseases effectively.

[Mental health status in railway female workers and its occupational influencing factors].

Objective: To investigate the mental health status of railway female workers and related influencing factors, and to provide a scientific strategy for labor protection regulations in railway female workers. Methods: Cluster sampling was used to select 5033 female workers from Jinan, Nanning, Qinghai-Tibet, and Wuhan railway systems in China from January to August, 2016. A uniform reproductive health questionnaire, as well as the Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) , was used to investigate their general information (age, marital status, education level, and family income) , work type (day shift, night shift, or work on shift) , work position, and the presence or absence of exposure to occupational hazardous factors. The score on each factor of SCL-90 and the positive rate of mental health status were calculated. Results: The positive rate of mental health status was 10.6% in railway female workers. The workers exposed to occupational hazardous factors had a significantly higher positive rate of mental health status than those not exposed to occupational hazardous factors (14.20% vs 8.02%, P<0.01) . There were significant differences in the positive rate of mental health status between workers with different ages, marital status, education levels, histories of abortion, or annual family income levels (P<0.01) . The scores of somatization (1.54±0.62) and horror (1.28±0.47) in SCL-90 were significantly higher than the Chinese adult norm (P<0.01) . The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that exposure to occupational hazardous factors, night shift, overwork, and carrying heavy objects were associated with mental health problems (OR=1.797, 95%CI: 1.393-2.318; OR=0.641, 95%CI: 0.498-0.827; OR=0.586, 95%CI: 0.439-0.783; OR=0.580, 95%CI: 0.378-0.890) . Conclusion: Railway female workers have lower levels of mental health than the general population and are under significant occupational stress. Exposure to occupational hazardous factors, night shift, overwork, and carrying heavy objects are associated with the development of mental health problems in railway female workers.
