ABSTRACT

Inflammation is involved in the development of various acute and chronic diseases in the body. Sustained inflammatory responses are key driving factors for diseases such as cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, and arthritis. Therefore, finding anti-inflammatory drugs is crucial for the prevention and treatment of various diseases. In recent years, there has been increasing attention to finding natural drugs with minimal toxic side effects. Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos, as traditional Chinese medicines potent in clearing heat and removing toxins, have strong biological activity and multiple pharmacological effects. They are widely distributed in the plant world and have significant medicinal value. With the continuous advancement of the research on Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos, they have been widely used in the medical field and possess great development potential. Currently, research mainly focuses on the anti-inflammatory mechanisms of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos, while systematic summaries of their anti-inflammatory active ingredients are rare. Therefore, this paper focuses on the differential analysis of the anti-inflammatory active components of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos. In addition, it reviewed the possible mechanisms by which extracts and active ingredients of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos may exert anti-inflammatory effects through various pathways, such as influencing the release of cellular inflammatory factors, regulating inflammatory signaling pathways such as nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), MAPK/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)/c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt)/NF-κB, and Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathways, increasing antioxidant stress capacity, enhancing immune defense capabilities, and improving intestinal microbiota, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the rational clinical application of Lonicerae Japonicae Flos and Lonicerae Flos.

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the role of autophagy, apoptosis of neutrophils and neutrophils extracellular traps (NET) formation in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Thirty-six patients with SLE were recruited as research subjects, and 32 healthy controls matched accordingly were enrolled as control subjects. The expression levels of microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3B (LC3B), autophagy-related gene5(ATG5), P62, B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl2), Bcl2-related X protein (BAX) in neutrophils were detected by Western blot analysis. Flow cytometry was employed to analyze the expression of LC3B on neutrophils. The expression level of myeloperoxidase(MPO) in plasma was estimated by ELISA. Furthermore, neutrophils were cultured in vitro and stimulated by 100 nmol/L rapamycin and 10 μg/mL lipopolysaccharide (LPS) for 6 hours, respectively. And then, the expression levels of LC3B, ATG5, P62, Bcl2 and BAX in neutrophils were detected by Western blot analysis. The level of MPO in culture supernatant was detected by ELISA. The change of fluorescence intensity of NET in culture supernatant was assayed by SytoxTM Green staining combined with fluorescence spectrophotometry. Results Compared with healthy controls, the levels of autophagy and apoptosis of neutrophils and NET formation in SLE patients were increased. The level of apoptosis and NET formation was positively associated with neutrophil autophagy. The level of autophagy showed an increase but had no effect on apoptosis and NET formation for neutrophil stimulated by rapamycin. The levels of autophagy and NET formation also increased with no significant effect on apoptosis for neutrophil induced by LPS. Conclusion The autophagy, apoptosis and NET formation of neutrophils increase in SLE patients. The activation of autophagy and NET in neutrophils possibly result from the inflammatory internal environment in SLE patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the critical value of different blood group antibody titration in ABO blood group incompatible kidney transplant(ABOi-KT)recipients by tube and gel methods to provide rationales for selecting the threshold value of antibody titration before ABOi-KT.Methods:From January 2019 to April 2021, 681 blood group antibody titrations were performed for 214 ABOi-KT recipients.There were type A( n=135), type B( n=168)and type O( n=378). The difference, correlation and consistency of two methods were statistically analyzed. Results:Tube method was 2 gradients lower than gel method(4-fold dilution)and the results were significantly different( P<0.000 1). Spearman's test indicated that the results of two methods were significantly correlated( P<0.000 1). The results of intraclass correlation coefficient showed that the consistency of two methods was general for type A recipients(ICC=0.640), decent for type B recipients(ICC=0.751)and poor for type O recipients(ICC<0.4). When the critical value of tube method was set, titration of type A anti-B was 16, titration of type B anti-A 8 and titration of type O anti-A/B 8.And the corresponding critical values of gel was type A anti-B 32, type B anti-A 16 and type O anti-A/B 16. Conclusions:The results of ABO blood group IgM antibody titration by gel and tube methods are correlative.And gel method is recommended for more stable and reproducible results.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To develop a prediction model of allogenic blood transfusion in elective patients based on machine learning, so as to guide clinicians to prepare blood for perioperative patients more reasonably. 【Methods】 Relevant data of all surgical patients from 2012 to 2018 were extracted from the big data integration platform of our hospital, to construct the surgical blood database based on Python V3.8.0. All data were analyzed using Excel and SAS, and the prediction model was developed based on SPSS Modeler 18.0. 【Results】 1) There was a negative correlation between preoperative Hb and BMI and intraoperative blood transfusion rate, with Pearson correlation coefficient (R) as -0.168 and -0.046, respectively. The transfusion rate of patients under 1 year old was the highest, up to 15.63%. The transfusion rate of female patients was higher than that of male patients (P>0.05), as cardiac surgery rated at the highest 11.38%, but their per capita blood transfusion was lower than that of males (P<0.01). 2) The AUC range corresponding to the prediction model for transfusion probability was 0.67~0.88, and when the AUC reached the highest, the hit ratio, coverage rate and specificity of Model 9 was 10.7%, 85.76% and 75.4%, respectively. 3) The main factors contributing to the prediction model for transfusion volume in surgery were weight, Hb, total protein(TP), etc. 【Conclusion】 The prediction efficiency of the successfully constructed prediction model for perioperative blood use was better than that of MSBOS.

ABSTRACT

Multifunctional monitors including electrocardiograph monitor, oxygen saturation monitor, blood pressure monitor, temperature monitor, arterial pressure monitor are often used for critically ill patients in hospitals. Each function monitoring part is equipped with multiple data monitoring wires. Due to the disorderly distribution, monitoring wires are often intertwined with each other. The medical staff will spend much time for careful identification and energy in emergency use and the improper operation of the equipment leads to its damage, which could affect data monitoring result, delay the diagnosis and treatment, and cause certain medical risks. In addition, the data line is often exposed to the external environment, which has a certain impact on its service life. Moreover, the distribution of the data line is disorderly, affecting the hospital environment and appearance. Thus, a kind of medical wire storage box was designed, which could realize the monitoring data cables in proper storage and neat distribution, reducing the workload of medical staff. The wire storage box has won the National Utility Model Patent of China (ZL 2017 2 1826195.0). The introduction goes as following. The storage box includes upper box body, lower box body and winding roller. The receptacle on the upper box body and the lower box body cooperate to form a cylindrical receptacle chamber for the winding roller. The side wall of the winding roller is designed with spiral winding groove which could help wrap the excessively long wires in the winding groove for storage. When multiple boxes need to be used simultaneously, the strip and slot on both sides of the lower box are used to splice the cable boxes together which improves the uniformity with less space use. The medical storage box is easy to make and can effectively avoid line friction and damage, prolong the line service life, and save department cost. In addition, it avoids the involvement between the lines, and improves the work efficiency. It also helps to keep the department environment tidy, which complies with "6S" management requirements, with good clinical application value.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the application of folding transfer shelf in the transportation of critically ill patients.Methods:Patients transferred from the emergency department to the intensive care unit (ICU) admitted to the First Hospital of Jiaxing from January 1st to December 31st in 2019 were enrolled. The patients were divided into study group and control group by whether or not using the self-developed folding transfer shelf. The incidence of adverse events, the stability rate of vital signs and the transport time were compared between the two group.Results:A total of 437 patients were enrolled in the study, with 222 in the study group (which used the self-developed folding transfer shelf) and 215 in the control group (which used the conventional stretcher). The baseline data such as gender, age, disease status and disease severity were balanced between the two groups. The stability rate of vital signs in the study group was higher than that in the control group (89.19% vs. 82.33%, P < 0.05). The transfer time in the study group was shorter than that in the control group (minutes: 6.39±1.35 vs. 7.61±1.34, P < 0.01). The total incidence of adverse transport events in the study group was lower than that in the control group (2.25% vs. 10.23%, P < 0.01). The incidence of miscarriage of emergent materials and instrument falling in the study group were lower than those in the control group (0% vs. 2.79%, 0% vs. 2.33%, both P < 0.05). Conclusions:The folding transfer shelf could reduce the transport risk of critical ill patients, especially the risk of miscarriage and falling of rescue instrument. The application of folding transfer shelf could regulate the management of transport, keep the vital signs of patients stable during transport, shorten the transport time, and facilitate an efficient and high-quality transport.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To observe the clinicopathologic features of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma associated with human papilloma virus (OPSCC-HPV) and discuss the role and value of different in situ hybridization (ISH) detection methods for HPV in pathologic diagnosis.@*Methods@#Fifteen cases of OPSCC-HPV were collected from Department of Pathology, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2016 to August 2018. These cases were diagnosed in accordance with the WHO classification of head and neck tumors. The histopathologic features and the clinicopathologic data were retrospectively analyzed. Immunohistochemistry (two-step EnVision method) was done to evaluate the expression of p16, Ki-67 and p53. ISH was used to detect HPV DNA (6/11 and 16/18). RNAscope technology was used to evaluate the presence of HPV mRNAs (16 and 18).@*Results@#The mean age for the 15 patients (8 males, 7 females) was 47 years (range from 30 to 69 years). OPSCC-HPV typically presentedat an advanced clinical stage, six patients had cervical lymphadenopathy (large and cystic), seven had tonsillar swelling, one had tumor at base of tongue, and one had odynophagia. Microscopically the tumors exhibited distinctive non-keratinizing squamous cell carcinoma morphology. Cervical nodal metastases were large and cystic, with thickening of lymph node capsules. OPSCC-HPV raised from crypt epithelium and extended beneath the tonsillar surface epithelial lining as nests and lobules, often with central necrosis. Tumor cells displayed a high N: C ratio, and high mitotic and apoptotic rates. Tumor nests are often embedded within lymphoid stroma, and may be infiltrated by lymphoid cells.Fifteen cases (15/15) were strongly positive for p16; Ki-67 index were 60%-90%; they were focally positive or negative for p53. Ten cases (10/10) were negative for HPV 6/11 DNA, and one case(1/10) was focally positive for HPV16/18 DNA. Eleven cases (11/11) were strongly positive for HPV16 mRNA, one case was focally positive for HPV18 mRNA.@*Conclusions@#OPSCC-HPV is a pathologically and clinically distinct form of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. OPSCC-HPV is associated with high-risk HPV (type 16) in all cases. Detection of high-risk HPV16 mRNA by RNAscope is of great significance in the final diagnosis and pathogen identification.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To construct a recombinant lentiviral expression vector pCDH-Daxx-EGFP to investigate the effect of Daxx on the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs).@*METHODS@#The recombinant lentiviral expression vector pCDHDaxx-EGFP was constructed using PCR-based accurate synthesis method. After identification by sequencing and enzyme digestion, the recombinant lentiviral vector was contransfected into 293T cells with lentivirus packaging vector. The recombinant lentivirus particles were collected and purified to infect VSMCs, whose expression of Daxx was detected with Western boltting. The cells infected with the empty vector pCDH-EGFP or pCDH-Daxx-EGFP were incubated in serum-free medium or in the presence of angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ). The cell viability was determined with MTT assay, and the cell cycle changes were analyzed with flow cytometry. The cell migration ability was assessed using a scratch wound healing assay. The expression of p-Akt protein in the cells was detected using Western blotting.@*RESULTS@#Double enzyme digestion and sequencing confirmed successful construction of the recombinant plasmid. Compared with the cells infected with the empty vector, the cells infected with pCDH-Daxx-EGFP exhibited significantly increased expressions of Daxx protein ( < 0.05). AngⅡ treatment of the cells infected with the pCDH-Daxx-EGFP, as compared with the cells infected with the empty vector, significantly lowered the cell viability, S phase cell ratio and cell migration ability ( < 0.05), and significantly decreased the expression level of p-Akt protein ( < 0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#We successfully constructed the recombinant lentiviral vector pCDH-Daxx-EGFP and overexpressed Daxx in primary cultured VSMCs using this vector. Daxx overexpression can inhibit AngⅡ-induced proliferation and migration in VSMCs probably by regulating p-Akt protein.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of endoscopic submucosal dissection ( ESD) for early stage colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions. Methods Clinical data of 108 patients who received ESD for early stage colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions from December 2016 to June 2017 in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University were analyzed. The lesion characteristics, postoperative pathological features, intraoperative and postoperative complications and postoperative follow-up outcomes were analyzed. Results The 108 patients all underwent ESD successfully with median operation time of 45 min. The rate of intraoperative perforation and postoperative delayed bleeding was 2. 8% ( 3/108) and 2. 8% (3/108), respectively. No postoperative delayed perforation occurred. Postoperative pathology showed that there were 41 cases ( 38. 0%) of tubular adenoma, 4 ( 3. 7%) villous adenoma, 39 ( 36. 1%) villous tubular adenoma [ including 41 ( 38. 0%) low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia and 16 ( 14. 8%) high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia] , 19 ( 17. 6%) adenocarcinoma, and 5 ( 4. 6%) other types. Among the 19 cases of adenocarcinoma, there were 11 cases of well-differentiated, 5 median-differentiated and 3 low-differentiated. The complete resection rate was 100. 0% and the en bloc resection rate was 92. 3% ( 100/108) . The mean follow-up time was 8. 1 months, and no recurrence was found during this period. Conclusion ESD is safe and effective in the treatment of early stage colorectal lesions. It is important to improve preoperative assessment, strengthen surgical skills, analyze postoperative pathological features and regularly follow up to guarantee the treatment quality of ESD.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To investigate and compare the sensitivities of early childhood caries detection by using international caries detection and assessment system (ICDAS)-Ⅱ and WHO criteria.@*Methods@#A total of 449 3-year-old children from four day care kindergartens in Beijing were enrolled in this study. Both ICDAS-Ⅱ and WHO criteria were used to assess the prevalence of caries in the given subjects. The decayed, missing, and filled teeth (dmft) index scores were calculated. In ICDAS-Ⅱ system, four cut-off points (D1, D2, D3 and D4) were employed to differentiate sound and decayed teeth: D1 (score 0 as sound, scores 1-6 as caries); D2 (0-1 sound, 2-6 caries); D3 (0-2 sound, 3-6 caries) and D4 (0-3 sound, 4-6 caries). SPSS software was used to analyze the data to decide the significance of differences.@*Results@#The caries prevalence using ICDAS-Ⅱ were 76.6% (344/449), 71.3% (320/449), 52.8% (237/449) and 46.1% (207/449) for D1 to D4, respectively; the corresponding mean dmft scores were 4.95±4.85, 4.41±4.77, 2.54±3.69 and 1.97±3.10. The sites with highest caries prevalence were occlusal surface of mandibular molars in groups of D1 and D2 and proximal surface of maxillary anterior teeth in groups D3 and D4. In contrast, the caries prevalence was 48.8% (219/449) and the mean dmft was 2.27±3.54 when using WHO criteria, significantly lower than the detection rates by using ICDAS-Ⅱ (D1-D2) (P=0.00). This suggested that ICDAS-Ⅱ system was a more sensitive method in detecting early childhood caries.@*Conclusions@#ICDAS-Ⅱ system might be superior in detection of incipient caries and be of specific value in prevention of early childhood caries.

Objective To preliminarily explore the feasibility of tree shrew as a new kind of animal model in research of amblyopia,to discuss the primary visual cortex plasticity mechanism of form deprivation in tree shrew,and to provide a theoretical basis for further understanding the mechanism of amblyopia formation and recovery.Methods Sixty 30-days old tree shrews were divided into five groups,12 in each group:the group A had the right eye sutured for 1 month;the group B had the right eye sutured for 2 months;the group C had the left eye sutured for 1 month and then opened and the righ eye was sutured for 1 month,in other words,the group C was performed by alternating suture;the tree shrews of control group 1(D1) were in the same age as the the group A,but fed in normal breedingenvironment;the tree shrews of control group 2(D2) were at the same age of groups B and C,but fed with a normal diet.Samples of the visual cortex were taken after the completion of modeling,and were processed to observe the histology and ultrastructure of the visual cortex,the neuron apoptosis,and the c-fos protein expression in the tree shrews of different groups.Results Damages to different degrees were found by histological and electron microscopic examination of the visual cortex in each experimental group,and they were more obvious in the group sutured for 2 months.TUNEL staining showed that there were no significant differences between the apoptosis in the experimental and control groups.The expression of c-fos mRNA and protein in the experimental groups was decreased,and it was the lowest in the group sutured for 2 months.There was a small increase in the c-fos expression after the alternate suture,and no significant difference of c-fos expression was found in the control groups.Conclusions Different degrees of deprivation amblyopia lead to different histopathological changes.There is a plasticity in the neurons affected by amblyopia.Tree shrew can be used as an ideal animal model for the studies of form deprivation amblyopia.
