The success rate and safety of the learning curve are high. This procedure is worth popularizing.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE@#Child head injury under impact scenarios (e.g. falls, vehicle crashes, etc.) is an important topic in the field of injury biomechanics. The head of piglet was commonly used as the surrogate to investigate the biomechanical response and mechanisms of pediatric head injuries because of the similar cellular structures and material properties. However, up to date, piglet head models with accurate geometry and material properties, which have been validated by impact experiments, are seldom. We aim to develop such a model for future research.@*METHODS@#In this study, first, the detailed anatomical structures of the piglet head, including the skull, suture, brain, pia mater, dura mater, cerebrospinal fluid, scalp and soft tissue, were constructed based on CT scans. Then, a structured butterfly method was adopted to mesh the complex geometries of the piglet head to generate high-quality elements and each component was assigned corresponding constitutive material models. Finally, the guided drop tower tests were conducted and the force-time histories were ectracted to validate the piglet head finite element model.@*RESULTS@#Simulations were conducted on the developed finite element model under impact conditions and the simulation results were compared with the experimental data from the guided drop tower tests and the published literature. The average peak force and duration of the guide drop tower test were similar to that of the simulation, with an error below 10%. The inaccuracy was below 20%. The average peak force and duration reported in the literature were comparable to those of the simulation, with the exception of the duration for an impact energy of 11 J. The results showed that the model was capable to capture the response of the pig head.@*CONCLUSION@#This study can provide an effective tool for investigating child head injury mechanisms and protection strategies under impact loading conditions.

The material basis and mechanism of Chaenomelis Fructus in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis(RA) were explored by network pharmacology, and the potential anti-RA targets of Chaenomelis Fructus were verified by molecular docking and animal experiments. The active components and targets of Chaenomelis Fructus were searched against the Traditional Chinese Medicine System Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform. GeneCards, DisGeNET, and OMIM were used to obtain RA-related targets. The common targets shared by Chaenomelis Fructus and RA were considered as the potential targets of Chaenomelis Fructus in the treatment of RA. Cytoscape 3.9.0 was employed to establish a "traditional Chinese medicine-active component-common target-disease" network. The protein-protein interaction(PPI) network was established by STRING, and the core genes were visualized by RStudio 4.1.0. DAVID was used for Gene Ontology(GO) annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway enrichment to predict and visualize the involved signaling pathways. Molecular docking was carried out with the active components screened out as ligands and RA core genes as the targets. Finally, the prediction results were verified by animal experiments. Four main active components of Chaenomelis Fructus were obtained, which corresponded to 137 targets. Chaenomelis Fructus and RA shared 37 common targets. GO annotation yielded 239 terms(P<0.05), and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis screened out 94 signaling pathways(P<0.05), mainly involving interleukin-17(IL-17), tumor necrosis factor, Toll-like receptor, and nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) signaling pathways. Molecular docking results showed that the main active components of Chaenomelis Fructus bound well with the core targets of RA. The results of animal experiments proved that Chaenomelis Fructus can alleviate joint swelling in the mice with RA. The results of ELISA showed that Chaenomelis Fructus lowered the levels of interleukin-6(IL-6) and interleukin-1β(IL-1β). Western blot showed that Chaenomelis Fructus down-regulated the protein level of vascular endothelial growth factor A(VEGFA). Chaenomelis Fructus exerts anti-inflammatory effect and reduces pannus formation by regulating the core targets such as VEGFA, IL-1β, and IL6 in the treatment of RA. The findings of this study provide new ideas for the future treatment of RA with Chaenomelis Fructus.

Excessive application of chemical fertilizer has caused many problems in Angelica dahurica var. formosana planting, such as yield decline and quality degradation. In order to promote the green cultivation mode of A. dahurica var. formosana and explore rhizosphere fungus resources, the rhizosphere fungi with nitrogen fixation, phosphorus solubilization, potassium solubilization, iron-producing carrier, and IAA-producing properties were isolated and screened in the rhizosphere of A. dahurica var. formosana from the genuine and non-genuine areas, respectively. The strains were identified comprehensively in light of the morphological characteristics and ITS rDNA sequences, and the growth-promoting effect of the screened strains was verified by pot experiment. The results showed that 37 strains of growth-promoting fungi were isolated and screened from the rhizosphere of A. dahurica var. formosana, mostly belonging to Fusarium. The cultured rhizosphere growth-promoting fungi of A. dahurica var. formosana were more abundant and diverse in the genuine producing areas than in the non-genuine producing areas. Among all strains, Aspergillus niger ZJ-17 had the strongest growth promotion potential. Under the condition of no fertilization outdoors, ZJ-17 inoculation significantly promoted the growth, yield, and accumulation of effective components of A. dahurica var. formosana planted in the soil of genuine and non-genuine producing areas, with yield increases of 73.59% and 37.84%, respectively. To a certain extent, it alleviated the restriction without additional fertilization on the growth of A. dahurica var. formosana. Therefore, A. niger ZJ-17 has great application prospects in increasing yield and quality of A. dahurica var. formosana and reducing fertilizer application and can be actually applied in promoting the growth of A. dahurica var. formosana and producing biofertilizer.

In recent years, the MYB-related gene family has been found pivotal in plant growth and development. MYB-related gene family in Angelica dahurica var. formosana was systematically investigated based on "Chuanzhi No. 2" through transcriptome database search and bioinformatics and the temporal and spatial expression patterns were analyzed through real-time fluorescence-based quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR). The results showed that 122 MYB-related proteins family were identified, mainly including the unstable hydrophilic proteins with good thermal stability. Most of the proteins were located in nuclei. The majority of the proteins had the structures of random coil and α-helix. Five MYB-related proteins family of A. dahurica var. formosana had membrane-binding domains. The conserved domain analysis of MYB-related proteins family of A. dahurica var. formosana showed that the MYB domains of genes in five subgroups, similar to 2 R-, 3 R-, and 4 R-MYB proteins, contained three evenly distributed Trp(W) residues in the MYB repeat sequence. The phylogenetic analysis of MYB-related proteins family in A. dahurica var. formosana and Arabidopsis thaliana showed that the MYB-related members were unevenly distributed in five subgroups, and A. thaliana and A. dahurica var. formosana had almost the same number of genes in the CCA1-like subgroup. There were differences in the number, type, and distribution of motifs contained in 122 encoded proteins. Transcription factors with similar branches had similar domains and motifs. The expression pattern analysis showed that the transcription factors AdMYB53, AdMYB83, and AdMYB89 responded to hormones to varying degrees, and they were highly expressed in leaves and responded quickly in roots. This study lays a foundation for further investigating the function of MYB-related transcription factors of A. dahurica var. formosana and solving the corresponding biological problems such as bolting early.

OBJECTIVE@#To study and compare the effect of indwelling drainage tube and extubation time on occult hemorrhage and functional recovery after total hip arthroplasty(THA).@*METHODS@#From July 2017 to June 2018, 123 patients who underwent THA in our hospital for the first time were selected as the subjects of study. According to whether the drainage tube was retained or not and the time of extubation, they were divided into three groups:in group A, 41 patients (24 males, 17 females, age 53 to 77 years) did not put drainage tube after THA;in group B, 41 patients were removed 24 hours after THA, 26 males and 15 females, aged 55 to 74 years;in group C, 41 patients were removed 48 hours after THA, 25 males and 16 females, aged 52 to 75 years. The VAS score of pain 72 hours after THA, the total and recessive blood loss, the time of starting functional exercise, and the incidence of postoperative limb swelling were recorded. All the patients were followed up for one year after discharge. Harris hip score was used to evaluate the degree of hip function recovery one year after operation.@*RESULTS@#The occult blood loss of group A, B and C were(513.6±25.3), (521.7±33.4), (519.3±29.8) ml, respectively, with no significant difference(>0.05). There was no significant difference in blood loss in operation among the three groups(>0.05). In group B and C, the postoperative apparent blood loss was more than that in group A (0.05). The time of getting out of bed in group A was shorter than that in group B and C (0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications among three groups (>0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#Whether the drainage tube is left or not and the time of extubation have no significant effect on the latent blood loss and functional recovery after THA, but without drainage tube after THA can reduce the apparent blood loss, patients can get out of bed at 6 hours after THA, which is more conducive to the recovery and nursing of patients.

RESUMEN
Objective To study the influence of radiation on autophagy and its protective effect on radiation injury of hepatic cells.Methods Autophagy in mouse liver tissues was examined by GFP-LC3 staining and Western blot.Radiation-induced hepatic injury was evaluated by ALT and AST in mouse serum,protein expressions,and H & E and TUNEL staining of liver tissue.L02 cells were used for in vitro study.Chloroquine and rapamycin were used to manipulate the level of autophagy.Results Total body irradiation (TBI) of 8 Gy caused an increase of autophagy in mouse liver tissue and AST level in serum (t =-7.47,P <0.05) at 12 h after irradiation.Irradiation significantly increased the apoptotic level in liver tissue as well.Inhibition of autophagy by chloroquine caused a further increases of AST [IR:(345.42±35.25)U/L vs.IR +CQ:(433.42 ±40.07)U/L,t =-2.86,P<0.05] and ALT [IR:(35.67 ± 8.08) U/L vs.IR+CQ:(98.5±26.67)U/L,t=-3.09,P<0.05] in the serum,and it also promoted apoptosis in live tissue.However,rapamycin as an autophagy promoter showed protective effect for radiation-induced hepatic injury [AST:IR:(345.42 ± 35.25) U/L vs.IR + Rap:(278.42 ± 20.09)U/L,t =-2.86,P < 0.05].Similar changes of autophagy and apoptosis in L02 cells were also observed in the cells treated with chloroquine and rapamycin.Inhibition of autophagy by CQ caused an increase of ROS in vitro and in vivo and further increased ALT and AST levels in serum,reduced L02 cell viability.Activation of autophagy by Rap effectively reversed those changes.Conclusions Autophagy protects hepatic cells from radiation injury by decreasing ROS induction,which provides a potential target for the development of new clinical regimens against radiation induced liver injury.

RESUMEN
Acute fetal hypoxia (AFH) can elicit postnatal motor deficits and cognitive impairments. To test whether lifelong acclimatization to middle altitude (MA) hypoxia has protective effects on the impairments caused by AFH, ICR mice bred at 1 900 m altitude for 6-7 generations were evaluated under AFH. On gestation day 9 (GD 9), 13 (GD 13) or 17 (GD 17), pregnant mice received a single exposure to acute hypoxia (7% O, 6 h). Physiological and neurodevelopmental behaviors, motor function (open field), spatial learning and memory (Morris water maze), and anxiety level (elevated plus maze) were examined in the offspring from neonate to adulthood. In the neonatal age, among all the physiological and behavioral landmarks, almost no differences were found in the hypoxia groups. In the juvenile period, no obvious impairments of motor function and anxiety level were found in the hypoxia groups. In the adult period, no obvious impairment of motor function was found in hypoxia groups; Interestingly, AFH groups' offspring showed normal or enhanced long-term spatial memory ability after AFH. These data suggest that AFH cause little abnormalities in the offspring of MA-adapted mice. To further investigate the underlying mechanisms, the neuronal numbers in behavior-related brain areas (accumbens nucleus, basal amygdala and hippocampus) were counted, and the physiological parameters of the blood were measured. The morphological data showed that no obvious neuronal necrosis was found in all hypoxia groups. In addition, blood tests showed that red blood corpuscle count, hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit levels in mice raised at MA were markedly higher in both males and females, compared with controls raised at the sea level. These data suggest that lifelong acclimatization to MA hypoxia has protective effects against development delay, motor deficits and spatial learning and memory impairments induced by AFH, and the protective effects may be due to higher hemoglobin concentration and hematocrit levels in the blood. The findings may provide a better understanding of fetal hypoxia and potential intervention treatments.

RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of interventional sclerotherapy for intraorbital venous malformation in children. Methods A retrospective analysis of 12 cases with intraorbital venous malformation from March 2007 to July 2013 in our department was made. Twelve lesions including 7 in left eyes and 5 in right eyes were evaluated. Three patients had surgical resection before interventional treatment. Sclerosing agent such as sclerosant foam or pingyangmycin was injected into the lesions guided by DSA. Interventional sclerotherapy was performed once every month until no blood return was observed. Then MRI was used to detect the lesions 1 month after operation. If there were residual lesions in MRI images, then repeat treatment was performed. Postoperative observation included patients' general situation and adverse reactions of eye after each treatment. Results Interventional sclerotherapy were performed to all patients for a total of 42 times (mean time 3.5 ± 1.0 per patient). After a follow?up of 24months, 7 cases were cured, 3 cases improved significantly and 2 cases with partial remission. Postoperative adverse reactions: transient exophthalmos in 39 case?times , peri?orbital and maxillofacial tissue swelling in 32 case?times. No severe complications were observed. Conclusion Interventional sclerotherapy is an easy, safe and effective method for treatment of intraorbital venous malformation.
RESUMEN
Objective This study was to observe the biological effects of eprenone on proliferation ,migration and apoptosis in human gastric epithelial cell line .Methods Human gastric epithelial cells GES‐1 were cultured in vitro .MTT assay were used to e‐valuate the proliferation of GES‐1 cells in different concentrations of teprenone and ensure the appropriate drug concentration .T ran‐swell test and scratch test were used to detect the migration ability of GES‐1 cells treated with appropriate concentration of eprenone .Flow cytometry analysis were used to detect the apoptosis of GES‐1 cells treated by the appropriate concentration of eprenone .Results Treated with eprenone for 24 h ,the proliferation of GES‐1 cells were increased as the concentration of teprenone from 10 to 80 μmol/L ,but from 80 to 320 μmol/L ,the promoting effect showed no staticall significant changes .So the appropriate drug concentration was determined to be 80 μmol/L .Treated with teprenone (80 μmol/L) for 24 h ,the transwell test showed that the migration rate of the teprenone group was 3 .338 ± 0 .293 and the control group was 1 .328 ± 0 .208 .So the number of staining blue cells in eprenone group were more than in control group obviously under membrane of transwell chambers (P<0 .01) .Scratch test showed that the migration rate of the eprenone group was 1 .00 ± 0 .18 and the control group was 0 .72 ± 0 .08 .Similarly ,the migration rate of eprenone group was higher than the control group(P<0 .05) .Treated with teprenone (80 μmol/L) for 48 h ,the apoptosis rate of the teprenone group was (11 .90 ± 1 .53)% and the control group was (25 .61 ± 0 .15)% ,the cellular apoptosis of eprenone group was lower than the control group (P<0 .01) .Conclusion Teprenone can promote the proliferation and migration , inhibit the apoptosis of GES‐1 cells .
