ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate whether index of microcirculatory resistance(IMR)is associated with left ventricular(LV)remodeling in acute anterior ST elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)pa-tients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention(PPCI).Methods:This was a single-center retrospective cohort study.The patients with first anterior STEMI who received PPCI from January 2014 to August 2017 in Peking University Third Hospital was enrolled.After PPCI,IMR was measured immediately by using pressure/temperature guidewire.The success rate of IMR measurement was 100%.Also we collected some related clinical data from the medical records and laboratory results.Infarct size[assessed as creatine kinase(CK)peak],echocardiography at baseline and 1 year follow-up were as-sessed.LV adverse remodeling(LVAR)was defined as ≥20%increase in LV end-diastolic volume(LVEDV).Results:A total of forty-three patients were enrolled,with an average age of(58.7±12.4)years.The patients were divided into two groups as IMR ≤25 and IMR>25 by normal values recommen-ded by previous literature.Compared with IMR ≤25 group,IMR>25 group had a higher percentage of initial thrombolysis in myocardial infraction(TIMI)grade 0(95.7%vs.65.0%,P=0.029),higher serum CK peak value[4 090(383,15 833)vs.1 580(396,5 583),P=0.004].The IMR>25 group suffered higher rates of ventricular aneurysm(30.4%vs.5.0%,P=0.021).There was no difference in LVEDV[(111.0±18.8)mL vs.(115.0±23.6)mL,P=0.503]between the two groups 1 day after MI,but after 1 year,LVEDV in IMR>25 group was significantly higher than in IMR≤25 group[(141.5± 33.7)mLvs.(115.9±27.9)mL,P=0.018].The incidence of LVAR was more significant in IMR>25 group(47.4%vs.11.8%,P=0.024).Binary Logistics regression showed that IMR[B=0.079,exp(B)(95%CI)=1.082(1.018-1.149),P=0.011]and serum triglyceride level[B=1.610,exp(B)(95%CI)=5.005(1.380-18.152),P=0.014]were the predictors of LVAR 1 year after MI.IMR had a good predictive value for LVAR 1 year after MI[area under the curve(AUC)=0.749,P=0.019],IMR>29 was a good cutoff value with sensitivity 81.8%and specificity 68.0%.Conclusion:Our study elaborates that immediate measurement of IMR after PPCI in patients with STEMI can reflect the microvas-cular function.And IMR could be used as a quantitative biomarker to predict LVAR after STEMI.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:The rabbit model of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head is the most commonly used animal model of femoral head necrosis.The pathological changes of the femoral head are close to clinical practice,however,the conditions,methods and evaluation standards of animal models reported in and outside China are not uniform,which leads to the low scientific value of animal models and is difficult to popularize.This study aimed to clarify the influence of different mold-making conditions on the establishment of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head rabbit model and analyze the appropriate conditions for the successful model establishment. METHODS:We searched the CNKI,WanFang,VIP,CBM,WoS,PubMed and EMbsae databases for the literature on the modeling of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head rabbits up to April 1,2022,completed the screening of the literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria and literature quality evaluation,and extracted the outcome index data in the literature.RevMan Stata and ADDIS statistical software were used to conduct a meta-analysis of the included data. RESULTS:(1)A total of 82 articles with 1 366 rabbits were included in the study.The steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head modeling methods were divided into three types:steroid-alone method,steroid combined lipopolysaccharide method and steroid combined serum method.Among these,33 articles used steroid-alone method;20 articles used steroid combined lipopolysaccharide method;29 articles used steroid combined serum method.(2)Meta-analysis results showed that the three modeling methods significantly increased the rate of empty bone lacunae in the femoral head of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head rabbits(P<0.001),and significantly decreased the ratio of the trabecular bone area in the femoral head of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head rabbits(P<0.001).The order of empty bone lacunae rate of each modeling method was:steroid combined with lipopolysaccharide method>steroid-alone method>steroid combined with serum method>normal group,and the order of trabecular bone area rate of each modeling method was:normal group>steroid combined with serum method>steroid-alone method>steroid combined with lipopolysaccharide method.(3)The results of subgroup analysis suggested that the rate of empty bone lacunae in the rabbit model induced by steroid alone might be related to the rabbit variety and the type of steroid used for modeling(difference between groups P<0.05),in which the combined effect amount of New Zealand white rabbits was higher than that of Chinese white rabbits(P<0.05)and Japanese white rabbits,and the combined effect amount of dexamethasone was higher than that of other steroids.The rate of empty bone lacunae induced by steroid combined with lipopolysaccharide was related to the administration mode of lipopolysaccharide and the type of steroid(P<0.05),among which the combined effect of methylprednisolone sodium succinate was significantly higher than that of other steroids(P<0.05),and the combined effect of prednisolone was significantly lower than that of other steroids(P<0.05).The combined effect of lipopolysaccharide 100 μg/kg×twice was significantly lower than 10 μg/kg×twice and 50 μg/kg×twice(P<0.05).The rate of empty bone lacunae in the model induced by steroid combined with serum was related to serum dose and steroid type(P<0.05),among which the combined effect amount of dexamethasone sodium phosphate was significantly higher than other steroid types(P<0.05),and the combined effect amount of dexamethasone was significantly lower than other steroid types(P<0.05);the combined effect amount of serum"10 mL/kg+6 mL/kg"combined dose was lower than other serum doses(P<0.05). CONCLUSION:(1)With the rate of empty bone lacunae and the ratio of trabecular bone area as the judgment standard for the successful establishment of the model,the three modeling methods can successfully construct the rabbit steroid-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head model,of which the steroid combined with lipopolysaccharide method is the best.(2)New Zealand white rabbits and dexamethasone are recommended when selecting the steroid-alone method.Methylprednisolone sodium succinate and low-dose lipopolysaccharide are recommended when selecting the steroid combined with lipopolysaccharide method.Dexamethasone sodium phosphate is recommended when selecting the steroid combined with serum modeling method.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the effects of the fat mass and obesity-associated gene(FTO)on apoptosis and the inflammatory response of chondrocytes in osteoarthritis(OA).Methods:Differences in FTO expression between normal human cartilage tissue samples and OA cartilage tissue samples were examined.Primary OA chondrocytes were isolated and cultured, and a rat OA model was constructed.The expression of FTO was detected in clinical, animal and cellular samples.Cells were treated with an FTO knockdown lentivirus vector(sh-FTO)and an m 6A methylation inhibitor(cycloleucine). The amount of m 6A and the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines, interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), were detected.Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis in OA chondrocytes, and Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of B-cell lymphoma 2(Bcl-2)and Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax). Results:Compared with the normal control group, FTO mRNA and protein expression in human OA cartilage tissue, rat OA cartilage tissue and OA chondrocytes was significantly increased(all P<0.05). After FTO knockdown, the level of m 6A increased, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α decreased considerably, the apoptosis rate decreased, the expression of the proapoptotic protein Bax decreased considerably, and the expression of Bcl-2 increased considerably in primary OA chondrocytes.However, cycloleucine intervention clearly reduced the level of m6A, increased the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α, promoted cell apoptosis and the expression of apoptosis-related proteins, and reversed the effect induced by the FTO knockdown lentivirus in OA chondrocytes(all P<0.05). Conclusions:FTO may be involved in mechanisms related to the action of m 6A to promote OA chondrocyte apoptosis and the inflammatory response, thus accelerating the progression of OA.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the value of CT radiomic model based on analysis of primary gastric cancer and the adipose tissue outside the gastric wall beside cancer in differentiating stage T1-2 from stage T3-4 gastric cancer.Methods:This study was a case-control study. Totally 465 patients with gastric cancer treated in Affiliated People′s Hospital of Jiangsu University from December 2011 to December 2019 were retrospectively collected. According to postoperative pathology, they were divided into 2 groups, one with 150 cases of T1-2 tumors and another with 315 cases of T3-4 tumors. The cases were divided into a training set (326 cases) and a test set (139 cases) by stratified sampling method at 7∶3. There were 104 cases of T1-2 stage and 222 cases of T3-4 stage in the training set, 46 cases of T1-2 stage and 93 cases of T3-4 stage in the test set. The axial CT images in the venous phase during one week before surgery were selected to delineate the region of interest (ROI) at the primary lesion and the extramural gastric adipose tissue adjacent to the cancer areas. The radiomic features of the ROIs were extracted by Pyradiomics software. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator was used to screen features related to T stage to establish the radiomic models of primary gastric cancer and the adipose tissue outside the gastric wall beside cancer. Independent sample t test or χ2 test were used to compare the differences in clinical features between T1-2 and T3-4 patients in the training set, and the features with statistical significance were combined to establish a clinical model. Two radiomic signatures and clinical features were combined to construct a clinical-radiomics model and generate a nomogram. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the efficacy of each model in differentiating stage T1-2 from stage T3-4 gastric cancer. The calibration curve was used to evaluate the consistency between the T stage predicted by the nomogram and the actual T stage of gastric cancer. And the decision curve analysis was used to evaluate the clinical net benefit of treatment guided by the nomogram and by the clinical model. Results:There were significant differences in CT-T stage and CT-N stage between T1-2 and T3-4 patients in the training set ( χ2=10.59, 15.92, P=0.014, 0.001) and the clinical model was established. After screening and dimensionality reduction, the 5 features from primary gastric cancer and the 6 features from the adipose tissue outside the gastric wall beside cancer established the radiomic models respectively. In the training set and the test set, the AUC values of the primary gastric cancer radiomic model were 0.864 (95% CI 0.820-0.908) and 0.836 (95% CI 0.762-0.910), and the adipose tissue outside the gastric wall beside cancer radiomic model were 0.782 (95% CI 0.731-0.833) and 0.784 (95% CI 0.702-0.866). The AUC values of the clinical model were 0.761 (95% CI 0.705-0.817) and 0.758 (95% CI 0.671-0.845), and the nomogram were 0.876 (95% CI 0.835-0.917) and 0.851 (95% CI 0.781-0.921). The calibration curve reflected that there was a high consistency between the T stage predicted by the nomogram and the actual T stage in the training set ( χ2=1.70, P=0.989). And the decision curve showed that at the risk threshold 0.01-0.74, a higher clinical net benefit could be obtained by using a nomogram to guide treatment. Conclusions:The CT radiomics features of primary gastric cancer lesions and the adipose tissue outside the gastric wall beside cancer can effectively distinguish T1-2 from T3-4 gastric cancer, and the combination of CT radiomic features and clinical features can further improve the prediction accuracy.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#This study uses structural magnetic resonance imaging to explore changes in the cerebellar lobules in patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and further analyze the correlation between cerebellar structural changes and clinical symptoms of ASD. @*Methods@#A total of 75 patients with ASD and 97 typically developing (TD) subjects from Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange dataset were recruited. We adopted an advanced automatic cerebellar lobule segmentation technique called CEREbellum Segmentation to segment each cerebellar hemisphere into 12 lobules. Normalized cortical thickness of each lobule was recorded, and group differences in the cortical measures were evaluated. Correlation analysis was also performed between the normalized cortical thickness and the score of Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised. @*Results@#Results from analysis of variance showed that the normalized cortical thickness of the ASD group differed significantly from that of the TD group; specifically, the ASD group had lower normalized cortical thickness than the TD group. Post-hoc analysis revealed that the differences were more predominant in the left lobule VI, left lobule Crus I and left lobule X, and in the right lobule VI and right lobule Crus I. Lowered normalized cortical thickness in the left lobule Crus I in the ASD patients correlated positively with the abnormality of development evident at or before 36 months subscore. @*Conclusion@#These results suggest abnormal development of cerebellar lobule structures in ASD patients, and such abnormality might significantly influence the pathogenesis of ASD. These findings provide new insights into the neural mechanisms of ASD, which may be clinically relevant to ASD diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of Jianpi Huogu prescription (JPHGP) on the functional injury of vascular endothelial cells caused by alcohol and explore its mechanism based on protein kinase B/c-Jun amino-terminal kinase/p38 MAPK (Akt/JNK/p38 MAPK) signaling pathway. MethodThrough chick embryo allantoic membrane, thoracic aortic ring, and migration, invasion, adhesion, and lumen formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), the effect of JPHGP with different concentrations (8, 16 and 32 μg·L-1) on angiogenesis was observed in the presence or absence of alcohol. The expression levels of phosphorylation of Akt, JNK, and p38 MAPK were determined by Western blot. ResultAs compared with the normal group, the number and length of capillaries around the arterial ring in the model group were decreased, and the migration, invasion, and lumen formation capacity of HUVEC were decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). After treatment with 16 and 32 μg·L-1 JPHGP, the length of neovascularization in chick embryo allantoic membrane was significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the 8, 16, and 32 μg·L-1 JPHGP groups increased the number of capillaries around the thoracic aortic ring in a concentration-dependent manner (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the 32 μg·L-1 JPHGP group increased the length of capillaries around the thoracic aortic ring (P<0.05). The 16 and 32 μg·L-1 JPHGP groups enhanced the migration, invasion, and lumen formation capacity of HUVEC. The results of Western blot showed that, as compared with the normal group, the protein expression levels of p-JNK/JNK, p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK, and p-Akt/Akt were significantly decreased in the model group (P<0.01), and as compared with the model group, the protein expression levels of p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK and p-Akt/Akt were significantly increased in the 8, 16, and 32 μg·L-1 JPHGP groups (P<0.01) and the protein expression level of p-JNK/JNK was increased significantly in the 16 and 32 μg·L-1 JPHGP groups (P<0.01). ConclusionJPHGP has a protective effect on the functional injury of vascular endothelial cells caused by alcohol, and its mechanism may be related to the activation of Akt/JNK/p38 MAPK signaling pathway. Relevant research results will provide certain scientific basis for clarifying the effect of JPHGP on 'invigorating spleen and promoting blood circulation'.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo clarify the intervention effect of Osteoking (OK) in rats with myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) and preliminarily explore the pharmacological mechanism of OK in relieving chronic pain from the perspective of anti-inflammatory disease. MethodThe 60 SD rats were divided into normal group, model group, low, medium, and high dose OK groups (0.66, 1.31, 2.63 mL·kg-1), and positive celecoxib group (21 mg·kg-1). The MPS rat model was established by beating combined with the centrifugal exercise method, and the OK and celecoxib were given at the same time. SMALGO paw pressure pain manometer detected the shock pain point tenderness threshold of rats, and the Von-Frey needle and acetone stimulation method detected the mechanical hyperalgesia threshold and cold hyperalgesia stimulation response respectively. Eight weeks and 10 weeks after modeling, the spontaneous discharge state and convulsion response of MPS rats were determined by electromyograph (EMG) instrument. The gait changes of MPS rats were detected using a CatWalk gait analyzer. The expression levels of interleukin-1 β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), substance P (SP), and bradykinin (BK) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein expression levels of nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) inhibiting protein α (IκBα), phosphorylates (p)- IκBα, NF-κB p65, and p-NF-κB p65 were detected in MPS rats by Western blot. The positive expression of p-NF-κB p65 was detected by immunofluorescence. ResultCompared with the normal group, the model group shows 100% positive rates for EMG signal and local convulsions response at both the 8th and 10th weeks. The tenderness threshold and mechanical hyperalgesia threshold are significantly reduced. Cold hyperalgesia score is significantly increased, and gait is abnormal. The expression levels of serum and trigger points IL-1β, TNF-α, SP, BK, p-IκBα, and p-NF-κB p65, as well as the positive expression intensity of p-NF-κB p65 are significantly increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the positive rate of EMG detection and local convulsion response is significantly reduced in the medium and high dose OK groups (P<0.05). The tenderness threshold and mechanical hyperalgesia threshold increase significantly in the medium and high dose OK groups, and the cold hyperalgesia score is significantly reduced in the high dose OK group (P<0.01). The standing time, swing time, and walking period are significantly increased. The swing speed, maximum contact area, and maximum contact intensity are significantly decreased in the high dose OK group (P<0.05). Moreover, the protein expression levels of p-IκBα/IκBα and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 are significantly reduced in the medium and high dose OK groups (P<0.05,P<0.01). The positive expression intensity of p-NF-κB p65 is significantly decreased in the high dose OK group (P<0.01). ConclusionThe mechanism of OK in relieving the pain in trigger points of MPS and improving gait abnormalities is related to the downregulation of the NF-κB p65 inflammatory signaling pathway to reduce the expression of inflammatory factors and pain mediators in blood and trigger point tissue.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveFrom the perspective of energy metabolism, the mechanism of Osteoking (OK) in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) was revealed through systems biology prediction combined with holistic animal experimental validation methods. MethodFirstly, the key targets of MPS and their related molecular mechanisms were predicted by the systems biology method, and the core network targets were screened. Then, the network-predicted targets were verified by animal experiments. Specifically, 60 SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, low, medium, and high dose OK groups (0.66, 1.31, 2.63 mL·kg-1), and positive celecoxib group (21 mg·kg-1). The MPS model was established by beating combined with a centrifugal exercise method for eight weeks. Except for two days after modeling, the intervention of OK or celecoxib was performed. After the completion of the model, the drug was administered for two weeks. The histopathological changes of trigger point muscle tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The content/activity of Na-K-ATP enzyme (Na+-K+-ATPase), Ca2+ pump (Ca2+ATPase), Ca2+, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glutathione (GSH), malondialal (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), cyclic adenosine phosphate (cAMP), and protein kinase A (PKA) in serum and/or trigger point muscle tissue in MPS rats was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Protein expression levels of PKA and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC1α) in MPS rats were detected by immunohistochemistry. The protein expression levels of PKA, PGC1α, and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) in MPS rats were detected by Western blot. ResultThe network prediction results suggest that OK acts on the key target of energy metabolism related to the occurrence and development of MPS and may participate in the activation of the cAMP/PKA/PGC1α signaling pathway. The experimental validation results show that compared with the normal group, contracture nodules and disordered arrangement of muscle fibers appear in the trigger point muscle tissue of MPS rats. Na+-K+-ATPase, Ca2+ATPase, SOD activity, Ca2+, and GSH contents in serum and/or trigger point muscle tissue are significantly decreased (P<0.01). Both LDH activity and MDA contents are significantly increased (P<0.01), and the protein expression levels of cAMP, PKA, PGC1α, and TFAM are significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, OK improves the histopathological morphology of trigger point muscle fibers in MPS rats, and after the intervention of OK, Na+-K+-ATPase, Ca2+ATPase, SOD activity, Ca2+, and GSH contents in serum and/or trigger point muscle tissue in MPS rats are significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). LDH activity and MDA contents are significantly reduced (P<0.05, P<0.01). The protein expression levels of cAMP, PKA, PGC1α, and TFAM are significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionThe mechanism of OK's intervention in MPS rats may be related to its effective activation of the cAMP/PKA/PGC1α signaling pathway, thus promoting mitochondrial energy metabolism and trigger point muscle fiber damage repair in muscle cells.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of Tripterygium wilfordii polyglycoside tablets (TWPT) combined with conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) including methotrexate (MTX) and/or leflunomide (LEF) on autoantibodies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. MethodPubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP, Wanfang Data, and China Biomedical Literature Service System (SinoMed) were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of TWPT combined with MTX and/or LEF in the treatment of RA patients from database inception to December 1, 2021. Primary outcome indicators included rheumatoid factor (RF) and anti-citrullinated protein antibody (ACPA), and secondary outcome indicators included immunoglobulin (IgA, IgG, and IgM) and adverse drug events (ADE). ResultThirty-one RCTs, involving 2 643 adult patients, were included, including 20 RCTs of TWPT combined with MTX, 10 of TWPT combined with LEF, and one of TWPT combined with MTX and TWPT. The follow-up time ranged from two weeks to 13 months. Compared with csDMARDs alone, TWPT combined with other drugs significantly improved serum RF of RA patients [SMD=-2.45, 95% CI [-2.97, -1.93], P<0.000 01], anti-CCP [SMD=-1.41, 95% CI (-2.35, -0.48), P=0.003], IgM [SMD=-1.90, 95% CI (-3.03, -0.76), P=0.001], and IgA [SMD=-1.18, 95% CI (-2.23, -0.12), P=0.03]. There were no significant effects on IgG [SMD=-1.02, 95% CI (-2.04, 0.01), P=0.05] and ADE [RR=0.87, 95% CI (0.66, 1.15), P=0.32]. ConclusionThe results of this study show that compared with csDMARDs alone, TWPT combined with csDMARDs can effectively improve the levels of autoantibodies in RA patients without increasing the incidence of ADE. However, due to the limited quality and quantity of the included RCTs, the relevant conclusions are only used as a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of RA, and more high-quality studies are still needed to further confirm their efficacy.

MethodIn the experiment, 46% vol Red Star Erguotou (10 mL·kg·d-1) was used to establish the AONFH rat model, and the intervention effect of JPHGP at different doses (2.5, 5.0, 10.0 g·kg-1) was observed. Jiangusheng pill (JGS, 1.53 g·kg-1) was selected as the positive control. After 8 weeks of administration, the bone histomorphometry of the femoral head was analyzed by Micro-CT imaging, and the area of medullary microvessels in the femoral head was detected by ink perfusion. The pathological change was observed by hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. The protein expressions of Platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (CD31), VEGF, VEGFR2, PI3K, phosphor-Akt (p-Akt) and phosphatase and Tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) in the femoral head were determined by immunohistochemistry and Western blot. ResultCompared with normal group, the model group presented the fracture and thinning of trabeculae in the femoral head, increased empty bone lacunae, and elevated number and diameter of adipocytes (P<0.01). Micro-CT imaging revealed a decrease in bone mineral density (BMD), bone volume fraction (BV/TV), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th) and trabecular number (Tb.N) (P<0.05, P<0.01) while an increase in bone surface-to-volume ratio (BS/BV) and trabecular separation (Tb.Sp) (P<0.01). The results of ink perfusion showed that the area of medullary microvessels in the femoral head was reduced (P<0.01). Compared with model group, JPHGP lowered the empty bone lacunae rate as well as the number and diameter of adipocytes in the femoral head of AONFH rats. Micro-CT imaging indicated that JPHGP low-dose group had elevated BV/TV, Tb.Th and Tb.N (P<0.05, P<0.01) while decreased BS/BV (P<0.01), and there was an upward trend in BMD while a downward trend in Tb.Sp, but without statistical difference. In addition, JPHGP medium- and high-dose groups had a rise in BMD, BV/TV, Tb.Th and Tb.N (P<0.05, P<0.01), a decrease in BS/BV and Tb.Sp (P<0.05, P<0.01) and enlarged area of medullary microvessels in the femoral head (P<0.05, P<0.01). The expressions of CD31, VEGF, VEGFR2, PI3K, p-Akt in the model group were lower than those in the normal group (P<0.01), and after medium and high doses of JPHGP treatment, the expressions of CD31, PI3K and p-Akt in the femoral head of rats were up-regulated (P<0.01) while the protein expression of PTEN was down-regulated (P<0.01). Moreover, JPHGP up-regulated the expressions of VEGF and VEGFR2 (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionJPHGP can repair the vascular injury in AONFH, and its mechanism may be related to the activation of VEGF/VEGFR2/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. This study provides certain scientific basis and reference for the clinical application of JPHGP. ObjecctiveTo observe the repair effect of Jianpi Huogu prescription (JPHGP) on vascular injury in experimental alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head (AONFH), and to explore its mechanism based on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)/VEGFR2/phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo observe the anti-swelling and analgesic effects of Jianpi Tongluo prescription (JPTL) and to explore its mechanism initially. MethodA total of 120 ICR mice were divided into normal group, model group, JPTL low-, medium- and high-dose groups (5, 10, 20 g·kg-1) and positive drug (celecoxib, 0.03 g·kg-1) group, with 10 in each group (po,once a day). Complete freund's adjuvant (CFA) was used to induce the model of chronic inflammatory pain, and xylene-induced ear swelling test, hot plate test and acetic acid writhing test were performed to observe the anti-swelling and analgesic effects of different doses of JPTL in these four acute and chronic models. Further, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect the expressions of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in serum and inflammatory paw of mice with chronic inflammatory pain, and the expressions of aquaporin 1 (AQP1), aquaporin 3 (AQP3), cyclooxygenase 1 (COX1), cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) and mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) in inflammatory paw were detected by Western blot, to explore the preliminary mechanism of JPTL. ResultCompared with the conditions in the normal group, there was a significant increase in the ear swelling of xylene-induced model mice, a shortened paw withdrawal latency in the hot plate test (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, JPTL remarkably increased the inhibition rate of xylene-induced ear swelling (P<0.05, P<0.01), prolonged the latency period of writhing caused by acetic acid and reduced the number of writhing (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with normal group, the degree of feet swelling in chronic inflammatory pain mice was significantly increased, the threshold of mechanical pain was decreased and the threshold of cold pain was increased (P<0.05, P<0.01), the protein contents of AQP1 and AQP3 in inflammatory feet were increased, and the contents of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, PGE2 and COX2 in inflammatory feet were increased in serum and/or inflammatory feet. The protein expression levels of p-p38 MAPK, p-JNK and p-ERK in inflammatory feet were increased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, JPTL relieved paw swelling of mice with chronic inflammatory pain, elevated mechanical withdrawal threshold while decreased cold withdrawal threshold, with analgesia lasting for 4 h and the optimal time point for analgesia being 2 h after administration (P<0.05, P<0.01). Moreover, JPTL down-regulated AQP1, AQP3, COX2, p-p38 MAPK, p-JNK and p-ERK in inflammatory paw of mice with chronic inflammatory pain and reduced IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and PGE2 in serum and/or inflammatory paw, but it had no significant effect on COX1 (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionJPTL has anti-swelling and analgesic effects, and its mechanism is related to inhibiting the production of cytokines and inflammatory mediators via the down-regulation of MAPKs signaling pathway, which provides an experimental basis for the clinical application of JPTL.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate and analyze the awareness of malignant hyperthermia (MH) in anesthesiology nurses in mainland China.Methods:From November 2021 to January 2022, anesthesiology nurses of secondary hospitals or above in Chinese mainland were enrolled by convenience sampling and investigated by a self-designed questionnaire on the awareness of MH.The system automatically recorded the situation of questionnaires.Results:A total of 2 058 anesthesiology nurses participated in the survey, distributed in 21 provinces, 2 autonomous regions (Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region) and 4 municipalities directly under the central government, and 2 049 questionnaires were effectively received with effective recovery of 99.56%.The correct answers to questions related to the treatment of MH, characteristics of the disease, classification, susceptible population, screening method of the susceptible population, genetic mode, inducing factors, the first symptoms and the best infusion time of dantrolene, preparation method of domestic dantrolene and the first dose were 86.58%, 82.33%, 58.18%, 50.90%, 50.76%, 50.42%, 45.73%, 32.89%, 51.25%, 48.32% and 46.51%, respectively.Only 27.13% of anesthesiology nurses expressed that dantrolene was available in their hospital.The scores of knowledge about MH among anesthesiology nurses in hospitals of province-level municipalities and provincial capital cities were significantly higher than those in other cities ( P<0.001). The scores of knowledge about MH among the anesthesiology nurses in secondary hospitals were significantly higher than those in tertiary hospitals ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the scores of knowledge about MH among anesthesiology nurses with different professional titles, educational backgrounds, and working years ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Anesthesiology nurses in mainland China have insufficient awareness of MH.Popularizing the knowledge about MH and strengthening the awareness of MH in medical staff in the department of anesthesiology throughout the country may be of great significance in improving the diagnosis and treatment of MH in China.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the effect of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs on bleeding and cardio-cerebral vascular events in perioperative period of catherization for peritoneal dialysis.Methods:The clinical data of patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis catheterization in Peking University Third Hospital from July 1, 2010 to December 31, 2020 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into drugs discontinuation group and drugs continuation group according to whether the anticoagulant drugs or antiplatelet drugs were discontinued or not. Baseline clinical data and bleeding and cardio-cerebral events after surgery were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for bleeding and cardio-cerebral events.Results:A total of 57 patients were included in the study, with 34 males and 23 females. The age was (67.37±13.93) years old (range from 27 to 97 years old). There were 37 patients in drugs discontinuation group and 20 patients in drugs continuation group. The proportions of acute myocardial infarction events in drugs continuation group were higher than those in drugs discontinuation group in 3 months and 6 months before surgery (10/20 vs 3/37, χ2=10.671, P=0.001; 11/20 vs 3/37, χ2=12.980, P<0.001 respectively). The median drugs discontinuation time was 5.0(2.0, 14.0) d (range from 1 to 30 d) before surgery, and median restore medication time was 4.0(3.0, 7.0) d (range from 1 to 14 d) after surgery in drugs discontinuation group. There was no significant difference in the proportion of bleeding (10/37 vs 8/20, χ2=1.011, P=0.315) and cardio-cerebral events (4/37 vs 0/20, χ2=0.964, P=0.326) between drugs discontinuation group and drugs continuation group within 2 weeks after surgery. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that drugs discontinuation before surgery was not an independent influencing factor for bleeding events ( OR=0.656, 95% CI 0.195-2.206, P=0.496), however combination of aspirin and clopidogrel before surgery was an independent influencing factor for bleeding events ( OR=4.038, 95% CI 1.044-15.626, P=0.043). All cardio-cerebral events (4 cases) happened in drugs discontinuation group, and myocardial angina in 6 months before surgery ( OR=9.764, 95% CI 0.928-102.682, P=0.058) and increased serum calcium concentration ( OR=1.491, 95% CI 0.976-2.278, P=0.065) were related with an elevated trend for cardio-cerebral events. Conclusions:Whether anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs are discontinued before catherization surgery for peritoneal dialysis is not an independent influencing factor for bleeding events after surgery. The risk of postoperative bleeding in patients using combination of aspirin and clopidogrel should be paid attention. Myocardial angina in 6 months before surgery and higher serum calcium are related with an elevated trend for cardio-cerebral events after drugs discontinuation.

ABSTRACT

ObjectiveTo observe the intervention effect of Ruyi Zhenbao pills (RYZBP) on central pain after thalamic stroke in mice and explore the underlying mechanism. MethodThe central post-stroke pain syndrome (CPSP) model was induced by stereotactic injection of type Ⅳ collagenase into the hypothalamus in mice. The mice were divided into a sham group, a model group, low-, medium-, and high-dose RYZBP groups (0.65, 1.3, 2.6 g·kg-1), and a pregabalin group (0.075 g·kg-1). Seven days after modeling, the mice in the groups with drug intervention were administered with corresponding drugs by gavage according to the body mass, once per day for 25 days, while those in the sham group and the model group received an equal volume of normal saline. During this period, mechanical pain and cold pain were detected at different time points, and the apoptotic state of brain tissue cells was detected by in situ terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end-labeling (TUNEL). The 36 classical broad-spectrum inflammatory factors were quantitatively analyzed by liquid-phase chip technology, and differential molecules were screened out and verified by Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). ResultCompared with sham operation group, mechanical pain threshold and cold sensitive pain threshold in model group were significantly changed (P<0.01). TUNEL results showed that apoptosis of brain cells was obvious. Western blot and ELISA results showed that the expressions of interleukin-1α (IL-1α) and chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) increased in hypothalamus tissue and serum, while the expressions of Ang-2, granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and IL-4 decreased significantly (P<0.01). Compared with model group, RYZBW dose groups significantly increased mechanical pain threshold, decreased cold sensitivity pain threshold, decreased hypothalamus cell apoptosis ratio (P<0.01), decreased the expression of IL-1α and CCL5 in hypothalamus tissue and serum, while the expression of ANG-2, G-CSF and IL-4 were significantly increased (P<0.05). ConclusionRYZBP can relieve hyperalgesia in CPSP mice, and its mechanism is related to the regulation of the expression of pro-/anti-inflammatory factors IL-1α, CCL5, IL-4, G-CSF, and Ang-2.
