        2025,40(1):13-20 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.01.003

        Abstract:

        Objective:To explore the molecular mechanisms of protective effects of glutathione(GSH)in mice with acetamino-phen-induced acute liver injury.Methods:120 mice were randomly divided into 3 groups:Control,APAP,GSH,with 40 in each group.After establishing the model,mice in the GSH groups were intraperitoneally injected with GSH(0.40 g/kg)for 3 days.Subsequently,liver tissue samples were collected.SWATH combined with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry was used to analyze the protein expression profile,and the differentially expressed proteins between APAP group and Control group,GSH group and APAP group were screened out.GO functional annotation and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis were performed for the above differential proteins.Protein interaction network(PPI)was constructed by String database and Cytoscape software,and the key proteins were verified by im-munohistochemical staining.Results:A total of 310 differentially expressed proteins were screened out between APAP group and Control group.A total of 172 differentially expressed proteins were screened out between the GSH group and the APAP group.The enrichment a-nalysis of the above differentially expressed proteins showed that the differential proteins were mainly enriched in the functions and pathways of nitrogen metabolism,fatty acid metabolism,and organic acid metabolism.Further analysis identified 17 differentially ex-pressed proteins between APAP group vs.Control group and GSH group vs.APAP group.Anxa5,Rgn,Tagln,Vim and Usp5 may be re-lated to apoptosis.Anxa5 and Rgn protein expression was higher in the APAP group than in the Control group(P<0.05).In contrast,Anxa5 protein expression decreased and Rgn protein expression increased in the GSH group compared to the APAP group(P<0.05),there was no statistically significant difference in Tagln,Vim,and Usp5(P>0.05).Conclusion:GSH protects mice from APAP-in-duced liver injury by inhibiting cell apoptosis.Anxa5,Rgn,Tagln,Vim,and Usp5 are potential targets.

        2025,40(1):108-112 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.01.024

        Abstract:

        Objective:To explore the serum 25-(OH)D levels of early pregnant women in Nanchong and their influencing fac-tors.Methods:1,098 pregnant women living in various regions of Nanchong were selected.The serum 25(OH)D values of early preg-nant women were detected by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.The present situation of vitamin D levels in pregnant women and their influencing factors were analyzed.Results:The serum 25-(OH)D level of pregnant women was 43.24±20.53 nmol/L in the early pregnancy.The deficiency rate was 67.85%.As individuals age,the levels of 25-(OH)D showed a gradual rise,peaking in the 35-year-old group.Compared with women without complications in the first trimester,the serum 25(OH)D level of early pregnant women after IVF-ET and with hypothyroidism or immune system diseases was higher(P<0.05).The increase in body mass index(BMI)and the decrease in serum vitamin A concentration were risk factors for serum 25-(OH)D deficiency in early pregnancy(P<0.05).Conclusion:The abnormal situation of vitamin among women in early pregnancy in Nanchong is the lack of ser-um 25(OH)D concentration.There are statistically significant differences in serum 25-(OH)D concentration in different ages,so indi-vidualized vitamin supplementation programs can be made for different pregnant women during prenatal examination.Maintaining the normal level of serum vitamin A concentration can reduce the risk of serum 25-(OH)D deficiency.

      • Analysis of Clinical Characteristics, Efficacy, Safety and Short-term and Medium-term Prognosis After Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection in Early Gastric Cancer Patients with Lesions at Different Gastric Sites

        王雯磊, 陈智良, 李凯, 朱永湘

        Abstract:

        Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with early gastric cancer (EGC) at different lesion sites, and to analyze the postoperative efficacy, safety and medium-term prognosis after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). Methods A total of 104 EGC patients who received ESD treatment in our hospital from January 2021 to December 2024 were enrolled. According to lesion location, the patients were divided into cardia group (5 cases), gastric fundus group (8 cases), gastric body group (9 cases), gastric angular group (29 cases) and gastric antrum group (53 cases). General baseline data, admission diagnosis, pathological risk grade, treatment efficacy, surgical safety and short-term and medium-term prognosis were compared among all groups. Results There were no significant differences in age, composition of admission diagnosis and pathological risk grade (low-risk vs. high-risk pathology) among patients with different lesion sites (all P>0.05). The overall difference in gender composition among groups was at a critical level (Pearson chi-square=9.464, P=0.050). Combined with the results of likelihood ratio chi-square test (likelihood ratio chi-square=11.916, P=0.018), the difference in gender distribution was statistically significant. The en bloc resection rate of ESD was 100.00% in all groups, while significant intergroup differences were found in complete resection rate and curative resection rate (all P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in the incidence of postoperative bleeding and perforation after ESD across groups (all P>0.05). The 1-year survival rate was 100.00% in all groups; no significant difference was detected in the 1-year recurrence rate (P>0.05). Due to the limitation of sample size, the 3-year follow-up data were only analyzed descriptively. The 3-year recurrence rate of the cardia group and gastric fundus group was 100.00%, with a 3-year survival rate of 0.00%, and no death occurred in the other groups. Conclusion The anatomical lesion site of EGC is correlated with gender distribution, postoperative efficacy of ESD and medium-term prognosis. It is recommended to optimize the refined surgical manipulation for lesions in the cardia and gastric fundus, and strengthen targeted postoperative follow-up for patients with cardiac lesions to reduce the risk of tumor recurrence.

      • Evaluation of the Efficacy of Procalcitonin-Guided Antibiotic Therapy Strategy in Patients After Gastrointestinal Perforation Surgery

        贾育泽, 杨晨晨

        Abstract:

        Objective To investigate the efficacy of a procalcitonin (PCT)?guided antibiotic therapy strategy in patients after gastrointestinal perforation surgery. Methods A total of 118 patients who underwent gastrointestinal perforation surgery at our hospital from January 2021 to December 2025 were enrolled. According to the antibiotic therapy strategy, they were divided into a control group (n=59) and an observation group (n=59). The control group received conventional empirical antibiotic discontinuation, while the observation group additionally adopted serum PCT dynamic monitoring. The duration of antibiotic use, postoperative hospital stay, hospitalization costs, postoperative white blood cell (WBC) count and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, postoperative infection-related complications, and the incidence of newly acquired multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) infection during hospitalization were compared between the two groups. Results The duration of antibiotic use and postoperative hospital stay were shorter in the observation group than in the control group, and hospitalization costs were lower, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). At 1 day postoperatively, there were no statistically significant differences in WBC and CRP levels between the two groups (P>0.05). At 5 days postoperatively, both WBC and CRP levels decreased compared with those at 1 day postoperatively in both groups (P<0.05), and the levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of complications (including abdominal infection, wound infection, pulmonary infection, and urinary tract infection) between the two groups (P>0.05). The incidence of newly acquired MDRO infection during hospitalization was lower in the observation group than in the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05).SConclusion The PCT?guided antibiotic discontinuation strategy after gastrointestinal perforation surgery can effectively shorten the duration of antibiotic use and hospital stay, reduce hospitalization costs, alleviate inflammatory response, and does not increase the risk of infection?related complications, while also helping to reduce the incidence of MDRO infection.

        Abstract:

        Objective To evaluate the improvement effects of high-quality nursing based on Noddings’ caring theory on symptom relief, blood gas indicators and nursing quality in children with pneumonia. Methods A total of 74 children with pneumonia admitted to the hospital from October 2025 to August 2026 were enrolled as study subjects, and were randomly classified into intervention group and control group, with 37 cases in each group. The control group implemented routine nursing of pediatric pneumonia, whereas the intervention group carried out high-quality nursing intervention based on Noddings’ caring theory on the basis of routine nursing. The differences in symptom relief indicators (fever abatement time, cough disappearance time, lung rale disappearance time, hospitalization time) and blood gas analysis indicators [partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), pH value] before and after intervention were compared between both groups, and the differences in medication compliance, comfort degree [numerical rating scale (NRS)] and nursing satisfaction of family members were recorded and compared. Results The intervention group [(1.74±0.85) d, (3.62±1.03) d, (2.18±1.06) d, (4.08±0.29) d] demonstrated shorter fever abatement time, cough disappearance time, lung rale disappearance time and total hospitalization time compared to the control group [(2.25±1.02) d, (4.19±1.24) d, (2.73±1.11) d, (4.55±0.36) d] (P<0.05). After intervention, the PaO2, SpO2 and pH in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05) while the PaCO2 was significantly lower (P<0.05). Concurrently, the intervention group exhibited significantly lower NRS comfort score compared to the control group [(2.35±1.02) points vs. (3.92±1.45) points] (P<0.05), and also showed significantly higher medication compliance rate and family nursing satisfaction than the control group (97.30% vs. 81.08%, 97.30% vs. 83.78%) (P<0.05). Conclusion High-quality nursing based on Noddings’ caring theory can effectively promote the clinical symptom relief in children with pneumonia, improve blood gas indicators, enhance the treatment comfort and compliance, and significantly enhance the family members’ satisfaction with nursing work.

        陈婷, 彭佳, 王亚均, 邓婉, 张颖

        Abstract:

        Objective To investigate the effects of different feeding methods on the early development of small-for-gestational-age (SGA) infants, and to provide clinical evidence for feeding strategies in SGA children. Methods SGA children born at the Department of Obstetrics, People''s Hospital of Dujiangyan City from April 2022 to April 2025 and systematically managed in the pediatric outpatient clinic were selected. They were divided into exclusive breastfeeding group, mixed feeding group, and formula feeding group according to feeding methods. Appropriate-for-gestational-age (AGA) infants born during the same period were selected as controls. Physical growth and neuropsychological development were compared among groups. Results 1. At 3 months of age, the weight Z-score and incidence of catch-up growth in height, and at 6 months of age, the incidence of catch-up growth in weight were significantly lower in the exclusive breastfeeding group than in the formula feeding group; after 6 months, the differences gradually decreased and showed no statistical significance. 2. The incidence of obesity was significantly lower in the exclusive breastfeeding group than in the formula feeding group. 3. No statistically significant difference was found in head circumference Z-scores. 4. The developmental quotients for language, adaptive ability, and social behavior in the formula-fed SGA group were significantly lower than those in the AGA group and the exclusive breastfeeding group; no statistically significant differences were observed between the exclusive breastfeeding group and the AGA group across all developmental dimensions. Conclusion 1. Exclusive breastfeeding in SGA children aged 0–12 months demonstrates more uniform and sustained catch-up growth with a more stable growth rate. 2. Different feeding methods do not affect the physical catch-up growth outcome of SGA children at 12 months of age, but exclusive breastfeeding is associated with a lower risk of obesity. 3. Most SGA children achieve catch-up growth within the first year of life, especially before 6 months of age. 4. Exclusively breastfed SGA children exhibit higher levels of neuropsychological development, comparable to those of AGA children.

        郝胜坤

        Abstract:

        Objective: To investigate the efficacy of calcitriol (Cal) combined with elcatonin on osteoporosis (OP) and its impact on bone metabolism in patients. Methods: One hundred elderly OP patients admitted to Huairou District Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from June 2022 to June 2024 were enrolled as the research subjects and randomly assigned into criterion group (50 cases) and joint group (50 cases) complying with random number table. The criterion group received oral Cal soft capsules, while the joint group received additional elcatonin injection on top of the criterion group. The treatment course for both groups was 3 months, with a follow-up of 12 months. The efficacy, bone metabolism [bone alkaline phosphatase (BALP), tartrate resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP), osteocalcin (OC), type I collagen cross-linked C-terminal peptide (CTX)], bone mineral density (BMD), bone pain score, quality of life score before treatment and after 3 months of treatment, and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results The therapeutic effect of the joint group was significantly better than that of the criterion group (94.00%, 70.00%, P<0.05). After treatment, the BALP, OC, BMD, and quality of life scores of both groups significantly increased compared with those before treatment, and the joint group was significantly higher than the criterion group (P<0.05). The TRACP, CTX, and bone pain scores of both groups significantly decreased compared with those before treatment, and the joint group was prominently lower than the criterion group (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). At 12-month follow-up, there was no statistically significant difference in fracture incidence between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: The combination of Cal and elcatonin has good efficacy in treating OP patients. It can regulate bone metabolism indicators, effectively regulate bone metabolism, increase bone density, relieve pain and improve quality of life, and has high safety.

      • Microstructural Alterations of the Substantia Nigra and Insula in Parkinson’s Disease Based on Diffusion Tensor Imaging Fractional Anisotropy Features: An Exploratory Machine Learning Analysis

        刘雪梅, 刘美君, 张耀丹, 任逢春

        Abstract:

        Objective To investigate alterations in diffusion tensor imaging (DTI)-derived fractional anisotropy (FA) of the substantia nigra and insula in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), and to explore the internal classification performance and feature contribution of machine learning models based on FA features in a single-center case-control cohort. Methods Thirty-five patients with PD and 28 healthy controls (HCs) were included. Group differences in bilateral substantia nigra FA, bilateral insular FA, and derived FA indices were compared. Linear regression analyses were performed after adjustment for age, sex, and years of education. Elastic net logistic regression, radial basis function kernel support vector machine, and random forest models were constructed using four original FA features. Model performance was evaluated using nested cross-validation, and permutation importance was used to assess ferture contribution. Results Mean FA values of the bilateral substantia nigra, bilateral insula, and the overall average FA were significantly lower in the PD group than in the HC group (all P<0.001), and these differences remained significant after adjustment for covariates. The ACU for discriminating PD from HC using mean bilateral substantia nigra FA was 0.919. In nested cross-validation, the radial basis function kernel support vector machine achieved an AUC of 1.000. Permutation importance indicated that FA values of the right and left substantia nigra contributed more substantially to model discrimination. Conclusion In this single-center case-control cohort,ROI-FA was reduced in both the substantia nigra and insula in patients with PD, with more robust between-group differences observed in substantia nigra FA.

      • Distribution of virulence genes in GBS causing infection in the third trimester of pregnancy and its effects on vaginal microecology and maternal-neonatal outcomes

        尚鑫桐, 胡婷婷, 汤禹翔, 陈香军

        Abstract:

        Objective: To investigate the distribution of virulence genes in group B Streptococcus (GBS) causing infection in the third trimester of pregnancy and its effects on vaginal microecology and maternal-neonatal outcomes. Methods: A total of 200 pregnant women who had GBS infection in the third trimester and were admitted to our hospital from December 2021 to December 2025 were selected as the infection group. Meanwhile, 200 GBS-negative pregnant women in the third trimester were selected as the control group. Polymerase chain reaction was used to analyze the distribution of virulence genes in GBS. Vaginal microecology and maternal-neonatal outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results: In the 200 GBS strains, the most prevalent virulence genes were hyl B (100.00%), cyl E (100.00%), and scp B (96.50%), which were detected in different serotypes. The detection rate of lmb was 66.50%, and it was common in serotypes II, VI, and IX. The distribution of bac and bca was limited, with detection rates of 4.50% and 10.50%, respectively. The proportions of vaginal microecological imbalance, abnormal vaginal pH, and grades III–IV vaginal cleanliness in the infection group were all higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The rate of cesarean section was higher (P=0.002), and the rate of natural vaginal delivery was lower in the infection group than in the control group (P=0.001). The incidences of intrauterine infection, premature rupture of membranes, puerperal infection, neonatal asphyxia, and neonatal pneumonia were all higher in the infection group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Virulence genes in GBS causing infection in the third trimester of pregnancy mainly include hyl B, cyl E, and scp B. GBS infection can lead to vaginal microecological imbalance and increase the risk of adverse maternal-neonatal outcomes.

      • Adaptive Modal Gated Cross-Attention Fusion Model for Non-invasive Prediction of MGMT Promoter Methylation in Adult Diffuse Gliomas

        刘高元, 张勇, 李卫星, 丁兀兀, 钱爽, 邓成苗, 陈琳

        Abstract:

        Objective: To develop an Adaptive Modality Gating Multi-Head Cross-Attention Fusion Model (AM-GMCA-Swin-S) based on Swin-S Transformer and explore its application value in non-invasive prediction of MGMT methylation status. Materials and Methods: A retrospective cohort of 328 adult diffuse glioma patients admitted to Deyang People’s Hospital from January 2011 to January 2025 was collected, including 230 cases with MGMT methylation positive and 98 cases with negative status, for model training and internal validation. A total of 82 cases selected from the publicly available multi-center ReMIND dataset were used as an independent external test set (59 methylation positive, 23 negative). After standardized preprocessing of T2WI, DWI, and 3D-T1CE images, 27-channel 2.5D image matrices covering axial, coronal, and sagittal planes were constructed. Clinical features, intratumoral and peritumoral radiomic features were extracted simultaneously. Four comparative models were established: semantic feature baseline model (LR), pure imaging modal baseline model (Native Swin-S), fixed-weight cross-attention fusion model (FW-CA-Swin-S), and AM-GMCA-Swin-S model. Multiple indicators, including PR-AUC, ROC-AUC, sensitivity, specificity, and F1-score were adopted to evaluate model discrimination efficacy. DeLong test was used to compare inter-group differences in AUC values, and continuous net reclassification improvement (continuous NRI) as well as integrated discrimination improvement (IDI) were calculated to quantify reclassification benefits. Results: Stratified 5-fold internal cross-validation demonstrated that the LR baseline model achieved the optimal overall discriminative performance, while AM-GMCA-Swin-S obtained the highest specificity. In independent external validation, AM-GMCA-Swin-S exhibited the best comprehensive performance, with PR-AUC of 0.856, specificity of 0.696, sensitivity of 0.678, and F1-score of 0.755. Its sample reclassification and risk stratification capacity were significantly superior to FW-CA-Swin-S (P<0.05). Compared to the LR baseline model (PR-AUC = 0.830), although there was no statistically significant difference in overall discriminative performance (P>0.05), AM-GMCA-Swin-S showed better individualized risk stratification. The Native Swin-S model had the worst discriminative performance and exhibited severe prediction bias. Conclusions: AM-GMCA-Swin-S can dynamically adjust the weights of different modality features es based on the tumor heterogeneity of individual samples, achieving adaptive fusion of multi-modal information and significantly improving the model’s comprehensive predictive performance. It remarkably enhances sample reclassification and individualized risk stratification capabilities, offering a new technical reference for the non-invasive assessment of MGMT methylation status and individualized diagnosis and treatment in adult diffuse gliomas.

        李京育, 杨勤, 向光明, 刘凤君

        Abstract:

        Objective: This study aims to systematically compare the efficacy differences of different antiviral regimens in preventing and treating low-level viremia in patients with chronic hepatitis B. Methods: (1) This study retrospectively included 734 CHB patients diagnosed and treated in the infectious diseases Department of our hospital from January 2023 to June 2024. They were divided into non first-line NAs group of 48 cases, first-line NAs group of 585 cases, and combined treatment group of 101 cases. The first-line NAs group was divided into ETV subgroup (347 cases), TDF subgroup (140 cases), and TAF subgroup (98 cases). (2) Analysis of independent influencing factors on LLV and HBsAg clearance.Compare the differences in therapeutic efficacy among different groups and observe and analyze the dynamic evolution of virological and serological markers during Peg-IFN α-2b treatment. Result: High baseline HBV DNA, high HBsAg, HBeAg positivity, liver cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma are independent risk factors for LLV.There was a significant difference in the incidence of LLV among the three groups (χ ²=72.34, P<0.001): the non first-line NAs group had the highest incidence of LLV, reaching 47.92%; The first-line NAs group is second, accounting for 32.65%; The combination therapy group had the lowest rate, only 3.96%. The CVR rate of the combination therapy group showed a continuous upward trend with prolonged treatment time, with outstanding performance in the dynamic decline of HBsAg. Conclusion: There are significant differences in the prevention and treatment efficacy of different antiviral regimens for LLV, and TAF can be the preferred choice among first-line NAs;Combined interferon therapy is an independent protective factor. Interferon has made "functional cure" an accessible target in advantageous populations. Clinical doctors should have a correct understanding of the transient HBV DNA elevation during interferon treatment and adhere to full course treatment.

        陈莹燕, 陈云, 夏庆庆, 孔飞燕

        Abstract:

        Objective: To compare the clinical efficacy of tranexamic acid, carboprost tromethamine combined with intrauterine balloon versus carboprost tromethamine combined with intrauterine balloon in the treatment of postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) and their effects on endometrial repair. Methods: Clinical data of 110 patients with PPH admitted to the Department of Obstetrics, Nanjing Gaochun People''s Hospital from January 2023 to January 2026 were retrospectively analyzed. The observation group (n=55) received carboprost tromethamine, tranexamic acid plus intrauterine balloon tamponade, while the control group (n=55) received carboprost tromethamine plus intrauterine balloon tamponade. The two groups were compared in terms of hemostatic efficacy (intraoperative blood loss, 2-hour and 24-hour postpartum blood loss, hemostasis time, and hemorrhage control rate), endometrial repair parameters (endometrial thickness at 42 days postpartum, lochia duration, and incidence of intrauterine adhesions), and adverse reactions. Results: The observation group demonstrated significantly lower intraoperative blood loss, 2-hour and 24-hour postpartum blood loss, and shorter hemostasis time compared with the control group (all P<0.05), along with a significantly higher hemorrhage control rate (P<0.05). At 42 days postpartum, the observation group showed significantly greater endometrial thickness (P<0.05), significantly shorter lochia duration (P<0.05), and a significantly lower incidence of intrauterine adhesions (P<0.05) relative to the control group. No statistically significant difference was observed in the overall incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: Carboprost tromethamine, tranexamic acid combined with intrauterine balloon achieves superior hemostatic efficacy compared with carboprost tromethamine combined with intrauterine balloon in the management of PPH, as evidenced by greater reduction in blood loss, shorter hemostasis time, and higher hemorrhage control rate. Moreover, this regimen more effectively promotes postpartum endometrial repair and is associated with a lower incidence of intrauterine adhesions, with a favorable safety profile.

      • Correlation between serum TRIM22 and intestinal barrier function markers and the incremental value of TRIM22 in assessing disease activity in patients with ulcerative colitis

        刘迪, 任小慧, 邢惟俊

        Abstract:

        Objective: To investigate the correlation between serum tripartite motif-containing protein 22 (TRIM22) and intestinal barrier function markers [D-lactate, diamine oxidase (DAO), and endotoxin] in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), and to evaluate the incremental value of TRIM22 in assessing disease activity.Methods: A total of 120 UC patients admitted from June 2024 to June 2026 were enrolled as the observation group, and 60 healthy individuals undergoing physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group. Serum levels of TRIM22, D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin were compared between the two groups. UC patients were divided into remission, mild, moderate, and severe groups according to the Mayo score, and the above indicators were compared among patients with different disease activity. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations of TRIM22 with intestinal barrier markers and Mayo score. With Mayo score ≥6 defined as moderate-to-severe activity, a multivariable logistic regression model was constructed to evaluate the incremental value of TRIM22 in assessing disease activity. Results: Serum TRIM22, D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin levels in the UC group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Among 120 UC patients, 29 were in remission, 37 had mild disease, 31 had moderate disease, and 23 had severe disease. With increasing disease activity, serum TRIM22, D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin levels increased gradually (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum TRIM22 was positively correlated with D-lactate, DAO, endotoxin, and Mayo score in UC patients (all P<0.05), and D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin were also positively correlated with Mayo score (all P<0.05). The moderate-to-severe group had significantly higher serum TRIM22, D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin levels than the non-moderate-to-severe group (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that TRIM22, D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin were independent factors associated with moderate-to-severe activity (P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of TRIM22 combined with D-lactate, DAO, and endotoxin for assessing moderate-to-severe UC was 0.938, with a sensitivity of 87.70% and a specificity of 90.90%, which was higher than that of each indicator alone.Conclusion: Serum TRIM22 is closely associated with intestinal barrier function markers and disease activity in UC patients. Combined detection can improve the performance of disease activity assessment and has incremental value.

        吴韬, 朱向阳, 韩伯军

        Abstract:

        Objective: To investigate the effects of edaravone dexborneol combined with mecobalamin on executive function, the evolution of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) on susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI), neurological deficits, and activities of daily living in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) after intravenous thrombolysis. Methods: A total of 110 ACI patients who underwent thrombolysis in our hospital from January 2022 to December 2024 were enrolled and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, with 55 cases in each group. During the study, 2 cases were excluded, leaving 55 cases in the control group and 53 in the observation group who completed the study. The control group received standard treatment, while the observation group received edaravone dexborneol injection and mecobalamin tablets in addition to standard treatment. Executive function was assessed using the Trail Making Test (TMT) B-A time and the Stroop Color-Word Test (SCWT) interference effect at baseline, 14 days, and 90 days after treatment. SWI was performed to record the total number of CMBs and the number of new CMBs, and the proportion of patients with new CMBs was calculated. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), modified Rankin Scale (mRS), and Barthel Index (BI) were also evaluated at each time point. Results: At 14 and 90 days after treatment, the TMT B-A time and SCWT interference effect in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Repeated measures analysis of variance revealed significant main effects of time and group, as well as a significant time × group interaction effect for both the TMT B-A time and the SCWT interference effect (all P<0.05), with a greater improvement magnitude in the observation group than in the control group. At 14 and 90 days, the number of new CMBs in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (both P<0.05). Within the control group, the number of new CMBs at 90 days increased significantly compared with that at 14 days (P<0.05), whereas no statistically significant difference was observed within the observation group (P>0.05). At 90 days, the proportion of patients with ≥1 new CMBs in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). At 14 and 90 days, the NIHSS scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (both P<0.05). At 90 days, the proportion of patients with an mRS score ≤2 (86.79% vs. 65.45%) and the BI scores in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (both P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of hemorrhagic transformation or adverse events between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion: Ultra-early intervention with edaravone dexborneol combined with mecobalamin can significantly improve executive function and neurological outcomes, attenuate the development of new CMBs, and enhance long-term quality of life in ACI patients after thrombolysis, without increasing the risk of bleeding.

      • Clinical Efficacy Observation of Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy for Knee Osteoarthritis Based on Inflammatory and Matrix Metabolism Regulation

        曹俊娟, 田振峰, 李兆锋, 段笑菲

        Abstract:

        Objective: To asses the clinical efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), explore its mechanism of action based on inflammation and matrix metabolism regulation, and analyze the impact of PRP quality parameter heterogeneity on therapeutic outcomes. Methods: 80 patients with KOA in the Department of Orthopedics and Pain Medicine at Shijiazhuang People''s Hospital from July 2022 to October 2024 were selected. The 80 KOA patients were randomly divided into a hyaluronic acid (HA) group (n=40) and a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) group (n=40) using a random number generation method. The PRP group received intra-articular injection of PRP into the knee joint cavity once weekly for a total of 3 sessions, while the HA group received intra-articular injection of HA into the knee joint cavity once weekly for a total of 3 sessions. The visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and the Western Ontario and Montreal Arthritis Clinic (WOMAC) score were compared between the two groups before treatment and at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months post-treatment. Inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6) and key proteins of the NF-κB pathway (p-p65, IκBα) in synovial fluid were measured before and after treatment. The correlation between platelet count, platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV), and growth factor concentrations in the PRP group and clinical efficacy as well as pathway biomarker changes was analyzed. Results: VAS and WOMAC scores were lower in the PRP group at all time points (P<0.05). At 6 months, synovial IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, and p-p65 levels were significantly reduced from baseline in both groups (P<0.05), while the expression levels of IκBα were significantly increased (P<0.05). Moreover, the improvement in these parameters was significantly greater in the PRP group compared to the HA group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis revealed that all quality parameters of PRP were significantly positively correlated with the WOMAC improvement rate (P<0.05). Platelet count (PLT) and TGF-β correlated negatively with ΔIL-1β (P<0.05) and significantly positively correlated with △IκBα (P<0.05), respectively. PLT, TGF-β, and VEGF were significantly negatively correlated with △p-p65 (P<0.05). Conclusion: PRP may exert anti-inflammatory and joint-protective effects by inhibiting the NF-κB pathway, demonstrating superior therapeutic efficacy compared to hyaluronic acid. Its therapeutic effects are influenced by PRP heterogeneity, providing theoretical basis and guidance for the standardized clinical application of PRP in the treatment of KOA.

      • DGCR8 promotes melanoma progression by regulating AKT phosphorylation via BCKDHA

        郑淏源, 金超颖, 李昂, 汪子愉, 吴敏靓, 薛春雨

        Abstract:

        Objective:To investigate the effects of DGCR8 on the proliferation, migration, invasion and tumorigenic ability of melanoma cells and its downstream pathway. Methods:Public datasets, including GSE115978, GSE72056 and TCGA-SKCM, were integrated to analyze the expression characteristics, proliferation-related features and prognostic significance of DGCR8 in melanoma. A DGCR8 knockdown model was established in A375 cells, followed by RNA sequencing and enrichment analysis to identify differentially enriched pathways and candidate molecules after DGCR8 knockdown. BCKDHA knockdown and BCKDHA rescue models in the context of DGCR8 knockdown were constructed. mRNA and protein expression, as well as cell proliferation, migration and invasion, were examined. The NAD?/NADH ratio was detected using the WST-8 method, and a nude mouse xenograft assay was performed to evaluate the effect of BCKDHA rescue on the phenotype induced by DGCR8 knockdown. Results:Single-cell sequencing database analysis showed that DGCR8 was highly expressed in melanoma cells and was associated with active cell proliferation. Deconvolution-based survival analysis showed that high DGCR8 expression was associated with poor prognosis. Cellular experiments showed that DGCR8 knockdown inhibited the proliferation, migration and invasion of A375 cells, and led to decreased AKT phosphorylation at Ser473 and Thr308, an increased NAD?/NADH ratio and downregulated BCKDHA expression. BCKDHA rescue restored AKT phosphorylation, proliferation, migration and invasion in DGCR8-knockdown cells and enhanced their tumorigenic ability in vivo. After BCKDHA knockdown, AKT phosphorylation decreased and the NAD?/NADH ratio increased, showing the same direction of change as that observed after DGCR8 knockdown. Conclusion:Our study supports that DGCR8 can regulate AKT phosphorylation and NADH metabolism via BCKDHA, thereby promoting the proliferation, migration, invasion, and tumorigenesis of A375 cells.

      • Exploring the Association Between a Novel Nutritional Index (TCBI) and Diabetes Risk Based on the

        代金茂, 张哲, 马晓虎, 谢长春, 罗恒希, 李寒露, 雷枭

        Abstract:

        Objective: Based on the "phlegm-dampness" theory of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this longitudinal study utilized data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) to investigate the association between a novel nutritional index—triglyceride-total cholesterol-body mass index (TCBI)—and the risk of diabetes in middle-aged and older adults. Methods: Data were obtained from the CHARLS database (2011–2020). Cox regression was employed to examine the longitudinal association between TCBI and diabetes risk. Kaplan-Meier curves, restricted cubic splines, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and subgroup analyses were used for validation. Results: A total of 8,765 Chinese participants aged ≥45 years were included in this study. Cox regression analysis revealed that, after adjusting for covariates, TCBI was longitudinally associated with diabetes risk (HR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.29–1.48).This finding aligns with the TCM "phlegm-dampness" theory, which posits that "internal accumulation of turbid phlegm and spleen dysfunction" contribute to the development of wasting-thirst disorder (diabetes). Restricted cubic spline analysis indicated a linear relationship between TCBI exposure levels and diabetes risk (P < 0.001). Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrated that individuals with higher TCBI levels had a greater cumulative incidence of diabetes. Subgroup analyses revealed interactions between TCBI and both marital status and history of hypertension (P < 0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that TCBI had a predictive efficacy of 0.64 for diabetes in the middle-aged and older population. Conclusion: TCBI level exhibits a significant positive linear association with diabetes risk in middle-aged and older adults, providing modern epidemiological support for the TCM theory that "phlegm-dampness causes wasting-thirst disorder."

      • Influence and role mechanism of CHMP4C on the tumor biological behaviors of Fadu cells in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma

        杨久梅, 苟浩铖, 刘良蓉

        Abstract:

        Background : Hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma is one of the malignant tumors with high incidence in the head and neck. It has the characteristics of strong invasiveness, early occult metastasis, and clinical diagnosis mostly in the middle and late stages. At present, the comprehensive treatment plan based on surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy has limited benefits. It is urgent to explore the key molecules that regulate tumor progression as potential targeted therapeutic targets. Objective: To explore the influence of CHMP4C on the proliferation, migration and invasion abilities of Fadu cells in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. Methods: Fadu cell model with stable knockdown of CHMP4C (shCHMP4C group) and negative control group (shNC group) were constructed. Western Blot was applied to verify the knockdown efficiency of CHMP4C protein. CCK-8 assay was utilized to detect the cell proliferation activity. Transwell migration assay and Matrigel invasion assay were adopted to evaluate the cell migration and invasion abilities. The expression level of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) key marker E-cadherin was detected by Western Blot. Results: Western Blot analysis revealed significantly reduced CHMP4C protein expression in the shCHMP4C group compared to the shNC group (P<0.05). CCK-8 assay demonstrated markedly slowed cell proliferation in the shCHMP4C group, with lower OD values at 48 h and 72 h compared to the shNC group (P<0.05). Transwell migration and invasion assays suggested reduced transmembrane cell counts in the shCHMP4C group compared with those in the shNC group (P<0.05). Western Blot detection found upregulation of E-cadherin protein expression in the shCHMP4C group relative to the shNC group (P<0.05). Conclusion: CHMP4C can promote the proliferation, migration and invasion abilities of Fadu cells in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, which may be achieved by regulating the EMT process. CHMP4C may serve as a potential candidate molecular target for targeted therapy of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, although its clinical value requires further investigation.

      • A Case of Reactive Cutaneous Capillary Proliferation Induced by Camrelizumab

        高慧闵, 熊心猜

        Abstract:

        Objective: To summarise the key points in the diagnosis and management of reactive cutaneous capillary proliferation (RCCEP) induced by the combination of camrelizumab and regorafenib in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma, and to outline management strategies in light of the latest research advances. Methods: We reviewed the complete clinical, dermatoscopic and pathological data of a 56-year-old patient with hepatocellular carcinoma and diabetic nephropathy. Cutaneous immune-related adverse event grade was assessed in accordance with Multidisciplinary Expert Consensus on Cutaneous Adverse Reactions Induced by Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors (2025 Edition). The patient underwent surgical excision of large skin lesions and cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen for microscopic lesions, and was treated topically with mupirocin ointment, with a one-year follow-up. Results: Following four cycles of immunotherapy combined with anti-vascular therapy, the patient developed multiple, easily bleeding, red, pedunculated papules on the posterior neck and trunk; dermoscopy revealed characteristic vascular lacunae and the ‘white curtain’ sign, whilst histopathology demonstrated benign lobular capillary proliferation in the dermis. The lesion was graded as grade 2 RCCEP; after local treatment, there was no recurrence of the lesions at the one-year follow-up. Underlying diabetic microvascular damage exacerbated the haemorrhagic manifestations of the skin lesions. Conclusion: RCCEP is a characteristic cutaneous adverse reaction of camrelizumab; patients with concomitant diabetes present with more severe skin lesions. Localised lesions are best managed with minimally invasive topical treatment. Individualised local treatment plans developed under a tiered approach are in line with the recommendations of domestic guidelines. RCCEP indicates anti-tumour immune benefit; treatment need not be discontinued in the absence of severe infection.

      • Synchronous Primary Malignancies of the Thyroid and Colon: A Case Report

        刘润之

        Abstract:

        Objective: To investigate the diagnostic and therapeutic characteristics of synchronous quadruple primary malignancies.Methods: The clinical data of a 46-year-old man with synchronous quadruple primary malignancies were retrospectively analyzed, together with the findings of pathological examination, immunohistochemistry, and genetic testing.Results: The patient was diagnosed with papillary thyroid carcinoma of the left lobe, mucinous adenocarcinoma of the ileocecal region, and moderately to poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas of the transverse and ascending colon. Immunohistochemistry showed loss of MLH1/PMS2 protein expression in the colorectal cancer tissues, and genetic testing identified a pathogenic germline variant in MLH1, confirming Lynch syndrome. The patient underwent synchronous radical resection of the thyroid and colorectal tumors, followed by adjuvant oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. No obvious evidence of recurrence or metastasis was observed during follow-up.Conclusion: Synchronous quadruple primary malignancies are rare. In patients presenting with multiple primary tumors and a relevant family history, pathological and molecular genetic testing should be considered to establish an accurate diagnosis and guide individualized treatment and cascade screening of at-risk family members.

      • A CBCT Study on Adult Mandibular Morphology of Skeletal Class Ⅱ Malocclusion with Mandibular Deviation

        张佳, 姜洪涛

        Abstract:

        Objective: To characterize the three-dimensional mandibular morphology of adults with skeletal Class II malocclusion and mandibular deviation using cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), identify independent morphologic indicators, and construct a combined discrimination model. Methods: A total of 126 adults with skeletal Class II malocclusion and mandibular deviation were retrospectively included as the deviation group, and 118 adults with normal occlusion were selected as the normal group. Three-dimensional mandibular reconstruction and measurements were performed using Mimics 20.0. Paired and independent-samples t tests were used for group comparisons. Variables showing between-group differences were entered into univariable logistic regression; multivariable logistic regression was then performed after correlation and variance inflation factor assessment. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to determine the area under the curve (AUC), optimal cut-off, sensitivity, and specificity. Internal validation was performed with 1,000 bootstrap resamples. Results: No significant left-right differences were observed in the normal group (all P>0.05). On the deviated side, condylar length, mandibular body unit length, condylar width, ramus height, mandibular body length, and three volume measurements were lower than those on the contralateral side (all P<0.001). Compared with the normal group, nine morphologic variables were lower in the deviation group, whereas mandibular angle length and chin length did not differ significantly. Condylar length, mandibular body unit length, condylar width, and ramus height remained independently associated with skeletal Class II malocclusion with mandibular deviation in the multivariable model. The combined model yielded an AUC of 0.925 (95% CI, 0.893-0.958), with an optimal probability cut-off of 0.46, sensitivity of 88.10%, and specificity of 84.75%. The bootstrap-corrected AUC was 0.920. Conclusion: Mandibular asymmetry in adults with skeletal Class II malocclusion and mandibular deviation is mainly concentrated in the condyle, ramus, and part of the mandibular body. A combined model based on condylar length, mandibular body unit length, condylar width, and ramus height provides useful quantitative support for three-dimensional CBCT assessment.

      • Clinical Significance of Bedside COHb Detection in Early Diagnosis and Intervention of Hemolytic Disease of the Fetus and Newborn

        明虹均, 唐炜

        Abstract:

        Objective: This study aimed to explore the clinical value of carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) measured by multi-wavelength CO-oximetry for the early auxiliary diagnosis of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and prediction of the selection of clinical intervention strategies. Methods: A total of 310 neonates with hyperbilirubinemia were enrolled in this retrospective study. According to blood group incompatibility and clinical diagnosis, the subjects were divided into two groups: the hemolysis group, consisting of neonates with blood group incompatibility and clinically diagnosed HDFN, which was further subdivided into two subgroups: confirmed subgroup (113 cases, positive direct Coombs test (DAT) and/or antibody release test) and suspected subgroup (53 cases, only positive serum free antibody test); the control group included 144 neonates with negative results of three hemolysis tests and clinically excluded HDFN. Clinical data including birth weight, gestational age and age at diagnosis were collected. Laboratory indicators including COHb, hemoglobin (Hb), percentage of reticulocytes (Ret%), total serum bilirubin (TBIL) and results of three hemolysis tests were detected. We analyzed the predictive value of COHb for HDFN and its efficacy in evaluating the severity of hemolysis. Results: There were statistically significant differences in age at admission, gestational age and feeding patterns between the hemolysis group and the control group (P<0.05), while no significant differences were observed in birth weight and gender. Significant differences were found in admission TBIL, Hb, COHb and Ret% between the two groups (P<0.05). The median COHb level in the hemolysis group was higher than that in the control group (1.5% vs 1.2%, P<0.01). ABO-HDFN accounted for 96.39% of the hemolysis group. The COHb level of the confirmed subgroup was higher than that of the suspected subgroup (P<0.05). Higher COHb levels were correlated with more frequent phototherapy, higher rates of exchange transfusion and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) use. The COHb cut-off value of 1.45% yielded a sensitivity of 70.48% and a specificity of 86.84% for diagnosing HDFN. Combined detection of COHb, Ret% and Hb improved the diagnostic sensitivity (74.43%) and specificity (87.61%). Conclusion: The COHb level was significantly higher in the hemolysis group than in the control group, and higher in the confirmed subgroup than in the suspected subgroup. Higher COHb levels were associated with greater requirements for clinical interventions. COHb can serve as a reference indicator for auxiliary diagnosis and severity assessment of HDFN.

        2025,40(6):686-692 712 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.06.002

        Abstract:

        Objective:To develop a robust and widely applicable predictive model to improve the accuracy of diagnosing the ma-lignancy risk of pulmonary nodules.Methods:This study retrospectively collected clinical data from 1,414 patients with pulmonary nod-ules diagnosed and treated at the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College and the Guang'an People's Hospital.Meta-analy-sis and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator(LASSO)regression were used to identify predictors related to the malignancy risk of pulmonary nodules.These factors were further optimized by multivariable Logistic regression(LR)to determine key features.Based on these features,8 machine learning models were constructed and evaluated for performance using Receiver Operating Character-istic(ROC)curves,calibration curves,and Decision Curve Analysis(DCA)in the training set and internal validation set.The best-performing model was used to develop a nomogram for risk stratification of patients.Results:Through the combined screening process of Meta-analysis,LASSO regression,and multivariable LR,10 key predictive factors were identified and integrated into eight different ma-chine learning models.Model evaluation demonstrated that the LR model performed best,achieving an Area Under the Curve(AUC)of 0.843 in the internal validation cohort.Additionally,the nomogram derived from this model exhibited strong predictive ability in the ex-ternal validation cohort,with an AUC of 0.770.Risk scores calculated from the nomogram stratified patients into four risk groups,with malignancy rates ranging from 0%in the low-risk group to 100%in the very high-risk group.Conclusion:The prediction model devel-oped in this study effectively assesses the malignancy risk of pulmonary nodules,providing a valuable risk stratification tool for clinical use.

        2025,40(6):681-685 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.06.001

        Abstract:

        Objective:To investigate the mechanism of DOK1 recombinant adenovirus(Ad-DOK1)on the regulation of insulin sensitivity in palmitic acid(PA)-induced insulin-resistant hepatocytes(BRL-3A).Methods:The control,solvent and model groups were treated with normal medium,ethanol and palmitic acid to establish a cellular insulin resistance model of BRL-3A cells and to iden-tify the cellular model using cellular glucose uptake assay.The control,null and adenovirus DOK1 overexpression groups were transfect-ed with normal serum,negative virus and Ad-DOK1(51257-1)in insulin-resistant BRL-3A cells,and the transfection efficiency of ade-novirus was detected by flow cytometry,and the Western blot method was used to detect DOK1,IRSI,IRSII,p-PI3K,PI3K,p-AKT,AKT,SREBP1c protein expression levels.Results:Palmitic acid induction for 6 hours resulted in a decrease in intracellular 2-deoxyglu-cose(P<0.05),down-regulation of DOK1 protein expression level(P<0.05),no significant change in IRSI and IRSII protein ex-pression level(P>0.05),no change in p-PI3K/PI3K ratio(P>0.05),down-regulation of p-AKT/AKT ratio(P<0.05),and SREBP1c protein expression expression levels were upregulated(P<0.05).After transfection of cells with DOK1 recombinant adeno-virus of optimal MOI 60,compared with the normal control group,intracellular 2-deoxyglucose was elevated(P<0.05),DOK1 protein expression level was up-regulated(P<0.05),there was no significant change in the expression level of IRSI and IRSII proteins(P>0.05),no significant change in the p-PI3K/PI3K ratio(P>0.05),the p-AKT/AKT ratio was upregulated(P<0.05),and the ex-pression level of SREBP1c protein expression was downregulated(P<0.05).Conclusion:Ad-DOK1 may enhance insulin sensitivity of BRL-3A cells by regulating AKT and SREBP1c.

      • Effect and mechanism of miR-139-3p targeting SPP1 on cisplatin resist-ance in A549 lung cancer cells

        Zhang Lingkun; Kang Shirong;

        2025,40(10):1225-1229 1248 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.10.001

        Abstract:

        Objective:To explore the effect and mechanism of miR-139-3p targeting secreted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1)on cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(DDP)in A549 lung cancer cells.Methods:A cisplatin(DDP)-resistant A549/DDP cell model was established via gradient concentration induction,validated by resistance index(IR=3.877)and IC50 determination.The re-sistant cells were divided into five groups:blank control,negative control,miR-139-3p mimic,SPP1 overexpression,and SPP1 knockdown.Multi-platform analyses were performed,including qPCR(miR-139-3p and SPP1 expression),Western blot(SPP1,p-AKT,and total AKT protein levels),CCK-8(proliferation and drug sensitivity),flow cytometry(apoptosis),and du-al-luciferase reporter assays(miR-139-3p/SPP1 interaction).Results:The cisplatin-resistant A549/DDP cells exhibited a signifi-cantly higher IC50 value compared to parental A549 cells(P<0.05),with a resistance index(IR)of 3.877.Quantitative PCR(qPCR)analysis revealed that miR-139-3p expression was markedly upregulated in the miR-139-3p mimic group versus the negative control group(P<0.05).Relative to the miR-139-3p mimic group,SPP1 mRNA levels were significantly elevated in the SPP1-overex-pression group and reduced in the SPP1-knockdown group(P<0.05).Western blotting confirmed corresponding changes in SPP1 pro-tein expression across these groups(P<0.05).CCK-8 assays demonstrated that miR-139-3p overexpression enhanced the proliferation inhibition rate and reduced the IC50 value compared to the negative control(P<0.05),whereas SPP1 overexpression reversed these effects,lowering the inhibition rate and increasing IC50(P<0.05).Compared with the miR-139-3p blank control,the luciferase activity of the wild-type SPP13'UTR luciferase reporter plasmid binding to miR-139-3p analog decreased(P<0.05),and the difference in the luciferase activity of the mutant SPP13'UTR luciferase reporter plasmid binding to miR-139-3p analog was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Compared with the negative control group,the protein expression level of p-AKT in miR-139-3p control group was signifi-cantly decreased(P<0.05),compared with the miR-139-3p control group and SPP1 knockdown group,the protein expression level of p-AKT in SPP1 overexpression group was significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion:Overexpression of miR-139-3p or knockdown of SPP1 could inhibit the proliferation of A549/DDP cells,enhance their sensitivity to cisplatin,and the mechanism may be related to the AKT signaling pathway.

        2025,40(6):693-698 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.06.003

        Abstract:

        Objective:To investigate whether there was a potential two-way causal relationship between sleep disorder(SD)and the incidence of gastric ulcer(GU)by two sample Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis.Methods:The data sets of exposure and outcome were obtained from IEU database,from which suitable Single Nucleotide Poly Morphisms(SNPs)were selected as instrumental variables(IVs),and then inverse variance weighting(IVW),MR-Egger regression,weighted median(WME),simple model and weigh-ted model were used for two-way MR Analysis.Cochran's Q test and MR-Egger intercept test were used for sensitivity analysis.Results:The IVW method showed that there was a significant unidirectional causal relationship between SD and the incidence of GU.When SD were used as exposure factors,the positive MR Analysis had significant statistical significance(OR=1.009,95%CI:1.004~1.015,P=0.001).When GU used as an exposure factor,reverse MR Analysis was not statistically s-ignificant(OR=1.197,95%CI:0.425~3.371,P=0.734).Further sensitivity analysis showed no significant heterogeneity and horizontal pleiotropy.Conclusion:Mendelian randomization analysis found that there is a potential one-way causal relationship between SD and the risk of GU,and SD are risk factors for GU.

        2025,40(5):562-568 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.05.004

        Abstract:

        Objective:To optimize contrast-enhanced computed tomography(CECT)image quality using Non-Local Means(NLM)denoising technology and construct a mortality risk prediction model for severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)patients based on his-togram parameters.Methods:Retrospective analysis of clinical,laboratory,and CECT data of 74 patients diagnosed with SAP.NLM de-noising was applied to arterial and portal venous phase images at different coefficient levels.Three-dimensional volumes of interest were manually delineated in pancreatic parenchyma on original and denoised images,followed by histogram parameter extraction.After univa-riate Logistic regression feature selection,binary Logistic regression models were built to predict SAP mortality risk and compared with clinical models and conventional CT models.Results:A total of 74 patients with SAP,of whom 27(36.5%)died.After applying NLM-based noise reduction to arterial phase and portal venous phase CECT images,8 histogram prediction models were constructed under dif-ferent noise coefficient levels.There was no significant difference in predictive performance among these histogram models(P>0.05).Compared to conventional CT models and clinical models,the histogram models demonstrated higher accuracy in predicting mortality risk(P=0.009,P=0.048).The predictive performance of the clinical model and the conventional CT model was similar(P=0.699).Conclusion:CECT histogram parameters show significant clinical value in predicting mortality risk in SAP patients,maintaining stable performance under different noise coefficient levels after NLM denoising.Their noise robustness and quantitative a-nalysis advantages compensate for the limitations of conventional CT.

        2025,40(5):557-561 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.05.003

        Abstract:

        Objective:To explore the role of neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs)in promoting the secretion of inflammatory mediators by alveolar type epithelial cells(AECII).Methods:In 30 7 d born SD rats,blood was drawn from neutrophils(NE)and di-vided into control(control group),LPS and LPS+DNase groups according to different treatment methods.NETs formation was detec-ted by immunofluorescence in vitro.NETs and AECII were co-cultured,and divided into control group(control group),NETs group and NETs+DNase group according to cell suspension incubation method.AECII apoptosis was detected by flow method,the content of free deoxyribonucleic acid(cf-DNA)in coculture supernatants in each group was detected by fluorescence microarray,and the coculture su-pernatants of interleukin 6(IL-6),interleukin 8(IL-8)and tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)in each group were determined using ELISA kit.And,the correlation between cf-DNA and IL-6,IL-8,and TNF-α was evaluated using Pearson correlation analysis.Results:According to immunofluorescence,mouse citrullinated histone H3(CitH3)and myeloperoxidase(MPO)were found in neutrophil in LPS and LPS+DNase group,CitH3 and MPO levels in LPS and LPS+DNase groups were higher than in the control group(P<0.05),and CitH3 and MPO in LPS+DNase group were lower than those in LPS group(P<0.05).After AECII apoptosis with NE and NETs,there was no significant difference between early and late apoptosis in the three groups(P>0.05).The levels of cf-DNA,IL-6,IL-8,and TNF-α in NETs group and NETs+DNase group were higher than those of the control group(P<0.05),NETs+DNase group was lower than NETs group(P<0.05).The content of cf-DNA in cell culture supernatant was positively correlated with the levels of IL-6,IL-8,and TNF-α(r=0.432,0.387,0.326,P<0.05).Conclusion:AECII with NETs in the supernatants with NE,NETs could promote the secretion of inflammatory mediators such as IL-6,IL-8,and TNF-α.Moreover,the more NETs are generated,the more inflammatory mediators such as IL-6,IL-8,and TNF-α are secreted.

        2025,40(5):624-627 ,DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1005-3697.2025.05.018

        Abstract:

        Objective:To investigate the correlation between serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),monocyte to HDL-C ratio(MHR)and post-stroke cognitive impairment(PSCI)in patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods:96 patients with acute AIS were collected and divided into PSCI group(n=39,<26 points)and non-PSCI group(n=57,≥26 points)accord-ing to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)score at 3 months after stroke.The clinical data such as serum BDNF and MHR lev-els at admission were statistically compared between the two groups,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve of BDNF and MHR levels in predicting PSCI was drawn.Results:Compared with the non-PSCI group,the PSCI group was older,had shorter years of education,had a higher proportion of hypertension,and had lower serum BDNF and higher MHR levels,the differences were signifi-cant(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=1.530),hypertension(OR=1.335),serum BDNF level(OR=0.755)and MHR(OR=1.645)were risk factors for PSCI in AIS patients(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of BDNF and MHR levels in predicting PSCI were 0.833 and 0.745,respectively,and the AUC of the combined diagnosis of the two was 0.882,which was greater than that of a single index(P<0.05).Conclusion:Serum BDNF and MHR are closely related to PSCI in AIS patients.Both indicators can predict the occurrence of PSCI,and the combined detection of the two can improve the predictive abili-ty.

        Abstract:

        Objective:To explore the effects of intermittent theta burst magnetic stimulation(iTBS)and 1 Hz repetitive tran-scranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)on depressive symptoms and cognitive function in elderly patients with depression.Methods:Eld-erly patients with depression were divided into iTBS group(n=30)and 1 Hz rTMS group(n=43)according to the treatment regi-men.On the basis of antidepressant treatment for both groups,the left dorsolateral prefrontal lobe of the iTBS group was given a stimula-tion frequency of 50 Hz from the internal frequency,5 Hz from the inter-frequency and stimulation strength of 110%RMT,with a stimu-lation time of 2 s,an intermission of 8 s,and a repetition of 20 times,with a total of 600 pulses lasting for 200 s.The 1 Hz rTMS group was given a stimulation frequency of 1.0 Hz and a stimulation intensity of 110%RMT in the dorsolateral right prefrontal lobe,and was treated for 20 min per day,with a total of 1,200 pulses per treatment.Patients in both groups were treated 5 times per week at the same fixed time for 4 weeks for a total of 20 treatments.The Hamilton Depression Scale 24(HAMD-24),Geriatric Depression Scale(GDS),Beck Suicidal Ideation Inventory-Chinese Version(BSI-CV),Wisconsin Card Sorting Test,and Part A of the Connection Test were used for assessment before and after treatment,and adverse reactions during treatment were recorded.Results:With the prolongation of treat-ment time,the HAMD-24 and GDS scores of the two groups gradually decreased(P<0.05),and the HAMD-24 and GDS scores of the iTBS group were lower than those of the 1 Hz rTMS group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).After4 weeks of treatment,the number of correct responses of the patients in the iTBS group was higher than that of the 1 Hz rTMS group,and the num-ber of incorrect responses,BSI-CV score suicidal ideation intensity and suicide risk were lower than those of the 1 Hz rTMS group,and the TMT-A time was shorter than that of the 1 Hz rTMS group,with a statistically significant difference between the groups(P<0.05).During the treatment period,there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:There are significant advantages of iTBS over1 Hz rTMS in treating elderly patients with depression in terms of improving depressive symptoms,reducing suicidal ideation,and improving cognitive performance,and there was no increased treatment safety risk.

        Abstract:

        Objective:To explore the clinical effect of rigid neuroendoscopy and traditional drilling irrigation and drainage in the treatment of chronic subdural hematoma(CSDH).Methods:The clinical data of CSDH patients were retrospectively analyzed.Accord-ing to different treatment methods,they were divided into traditional group(treated with traditional drilling irrigation and drainage)and endoscopic group(treated with rigid neuroendoscopy),48 cases in each group.The differences in perioperative indicators,GCS score,Markwalder grading and NIHSS score were compared between groups,and the complications and recurrence rate in the two groups were counted.Results:The intraoperative blood loss,hospitalization time and immediate postoperative hematoma clearance rate in endoscopic group were better than those in traditional group(P<0.05),and the total surgical time in traditional group was shorter than that in en-doscopic group(P<0.05).At 7 days after surgery,the GCS score and Markwalder neurological function grading in the two groups were improved(P<0.05),but there were no obvious differences between the two groups(P>0.05).Different time points after surgery,the NIHSS score in both groups was reduced compared to before surgery(P<0.05),and the score was lower in endoscopic group than that in traditional group(P<0.05).The complications showed no significant differences(P>0.05),and the recurrence rate of hematoma was lower than that in traditional group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Both rigid neuroendoscopy and traditional drilling irrigation and drainage can effectively treat CSDH,but neuroendoscopy has higher hematoma clearance rate,shorter hospitalization time and lower postoperative recurrence rate,which is worthy of clinical promotion.
