Objective:To correlate blood lipids and body mass index (BMI) with Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection. Methods:A total of 303 participants who underwent physical examinations at The 903 Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force from May 2022 to May 2023 were included in this case-control study. These patients were divided into an Hp-infected group ( n = 97) and a non-Hp-infected group ( n = 206) based on whether they had Hp infection or not. Participants' body height and weight were recorded, and BMI was calculated. The levels of four blood lipid indicators were determined using an automatic biochemical analyzer. The distribution of different BMIs and abnormal statuses of these four blood lipid indicators were compared between the two groups. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between Hp infection and these four blood lipid indicators. A multivariate logistic regression model was applied to analyze the influential factors for Hp infection. Results:The number of participants who had 24 kg/m 2 ≤ BMI < 28 kg/m 2 [39.17% (38/97)] and the number of participants who had BMI ≥ 28 kg/m 2 [10.31% (10/97)] in the Hp-infected group was significantly higher than those in the non-Hp-infected group [19.90% (41/206) and 2.43% (5/206), χ2 = 12.71, 7.11, P < 0.001, 0.008]. The decrease rate of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), increase rate of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), increase rate of triglyceride (TG), and increase rate of total cholesterol (TC) in the Hp-infected group were 23.71% (23/97), 31.96% (31/97), 17.53% (17/97), and 22.68% (22/97), respectively, which were significantly higher than 9.22% (19/206), 11.17% (23/206), 7.28% (15/206), and 8.74% (18/206) in the non-Hp-infected group ( χ2 = 11.59, 19.47, 7.33, 11.19, P = 0.001, < 0.001, 0.007, 0.001). The Spearman analysis showed that Hp infection was linearly positively correlated with BMI, LDL-C, TG, and TC ( r = 0.571, 0.519, 0.473, 0.535, all P < 0.001), while it was linearly negatively correlated with HDL-C ( r = -0.628, P < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BMI ≥ 24 kg/m 2, decreased HDL-C, increased LDL-C, elevated TG, and elevated TC are independent risk factors for Hp infection. Conclusion:Blood lipids and BMI are closely associated with Hp infection, and abnormal blood lipids and elevated BMI are independent risk factors for Hp infection.

@#To investigate the safety and effectiveness of endovascular treatment for non-acute symptomatic intracranial occlusive disease of internal carotid artery. Methods The general data,surgical data and follow-up data of the patients with non-acute intracranial occlusion of internal carotid artery admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdaso Univerity from July 2016 to February 2021 were retrospectively analyzed,including the success rate of recanalization,the incidence of perioperative complications,imaging follow-up data and clinical follow-up data. Thrombolysis test for cerebral infarction (TICI) was used to evaluate the success of recanalization,the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was used to evaluate the degree of neurological impairment before and after treatment,and the degree of postoperative neurological recovery was evaluated by the modified Rankin Scale (MRS). Results 28 of the 30 cases of intracranial internal carotid artery were successfully opened (technical success rate was 93.3%). The difference of mTICI grading before operation was statistically significant compared with that after operation (P<0.05).Surgical complications occurred in 6 cases (20.0%),including dissection in 2 cases,hyperperfusion syndrome in 1 case,and subarachnoid hemorrhage in 3 cases. Follow-up imaging of the 18 patients showed that 3 patients had restenosis of the offending vessels. One of them had TIA in the offending vessels and presented with paroxysmic contralateral limb weakness,and the other one had asymptomatic stenosis. In the 30 cases of clinical follow-up,there was a statistically significant difference in the MRS score between the 28 cases with successful operation and that before operation (P<0.05),and there was no significant change in the MRS score during clinical follow up between the 2 cases with intraoperative complications and unsuccessful operation. Conclusion endovascular therapy is safe and effective in highly selected cases of non-acute symptomatic intracranial internal carotid occlusion. The long-term NIHSS score and MRS score can be used to follow up the neurological deficit and recovery,and then to evaluate the long-term efficacy of endovascular therapy.

Résumé
Yinshan Mountains stands on the southern edge of the Inner Mongolia Plateau, which stretches 1 200 km from east to west and 50 to 100 km from north to south. The rich and varied topographic environment of the Yinshan Mountains has created a variety of vegetation floras, which also makes the species of medicinal plant resources in this area unevenly distributed. Therefore, studying the spatial distribution difference of medicinal plant resources among various banners, counties, and districts in the Yinshan area is of great significance to formulate the protection policy and promote the industry development of medicinal plant. This study is based on the fourth national survey of traditional Chinese medicine resources in Inner Mongolia, regarding the results of the third national survey of traditional Chinese medicine resources. The species of medicinal plant resources in the Yinshan area around 31 banners, counties and districts were counted in detail. Then, using exploratory spatial data analysis(ESDA), trend surface analysis, spatial autocorrelation, geographical detector and other geostatistical analysis methods to analyze the differences in the spatial distribution of medicinal plant resources of the Yinshan area in Inner Mongolia. After discussing and analyzing the experimental results to account for the reasons for the overall trend of change and the degree of aggregation, the author further put forward relevant constructive suggestions. The results show that the areas with the most abundant and concentrated distribution of medicinal plant resources in the Yinshan area are located in Guyang county, Shiguai District of Baotou city, Tutou right banner, and Tuoketuo county; the higher richness and concentrated distribution of medicinal plant resources is in Wulate front banner, Wulate middle banner, Wulate back banner; areas with relatively low abundance and concentrated distribution of medicinal plant resources located in Qingshan district of Baotou city, Saihan district and Yuquan district of Hohhot city; areas with the lowest abundance and concentrated distribution of medicinal plant resources are located in Xincheng district and Huimin district of Hohhot city. It can be concluded that the horizontal distribution difference of multiple ecological factors, the special wetland environment of the river, the vertical difference of elevation, the farmland and other factors have an important influence on the richness of the medicinal plant resources species.

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy and application value of the left atrial appendage(LAA) occlusion simulation in dynamic fluid in vitro based on left atrial appendage models. Methods:The preoperative two/three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography(2D/3D-TEE) images of 21 patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing percutaneous LAA occlusion were retrospectively analyzed. LAA models with different materials (silicone-hydrogel LAA models, silicone LAA models and Tangoplus LAA models) were obtained by 3D printing. After simulation evaluation set models in a dynamic fluid system to simulate the occlusion operation, the type of occluder was predicted, the correlation between them and the final occluder used in the operation was analyzed.According to 2D/3D-TEE monitoring in 21 patients, the compression ratio of occluders was measured and the residual leakage around occluders was observed. With the same type occluder as in surgery, the compression ratio of occluders and residual leakage around the occluders in the three LAA models were observed and compared with intraoperative measurements, the descriptive and correlation analyses were conducted.Results:The simulation score of silicone-hydrogel LAA models was higher than those of silicone LAA models and Tangoplus LAA models. The occluder size in silicone-hydrogel LAA models was more correlated to the size used in the operation( r=0.937, P<0.001) than silicone LAA models ( r=0.918, P<0.001) and Tangoplus LAA models ( r=0.895, P<0.001). With the same size of occluder, there was no significant difference between the compression ratio of the occluder in silicone-hydrogel LAA models and intraoperative ( P=0.908). In 21 patients, 7 cases of residual leakage of occluder were observed during operation, while 4 cases were observed in silicone-hydrogel LAA, 5 cases were observed in silicone LAA models and 5 cases in Tangoplus LAA models. Conclusions:Preoperative simulation system of left atrial appendage occlusion based on silica gel-hydrogel model is helpful for preoperative decision-making, simulation exercise and post-operative evaluation of percutaneous left atrial appendage occlusion.

@#【Objective】 To investigate whether the dedifferented human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(hMSC)modified by IDO gene can get improved ability to survive oxidative stress as well as to induce regulatory T(Treg) lymphocytes.【Methods】The dedifferentiated hMSC(De- hMSC)were obtained by a transient adipogenic induction and subsequent recovery culture in normal medium. The IDO gene modified De-hMSC (IDO/De-hMSC)were prepared by retroviral infection using recombinant retrovirus harboring IDO gene. The De- hMSC infected by retrovirus containing ZsGreen1 gene,the non- infected De- hMSC and hMSC were set as controls. Exogenous expression of IDO protein was confirmed by Western blot. Flow cytometry analysis was performed to detect the immunophenotype of IDO/De- hMSC , and their osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation abilities were also assessed. Cell survival rates under the oxidative stress of 300 μmol/L t- BHP were determined by Annexin V- FITC/PI double staining flow cytometry. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated and treated with conditioned medium containing the culture supernatant of hMSC,De-hMSC,Mock/De-hMSC and IDO/De-hMSC,respectively. Changes in the proportion of CD4+ CD25+ CD127low Treg cells in PBMC were determined by triple fluorescent labeling flow cytometry.【Results】The De-hMSC modified by IDO gene still have the immunophenotype as well as the osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation abilities that are typical of mesenchymal stem cells. When challenged by 300 μmol/L t-BHP,the number of viable cells in De-hMSC significantly elevated compared with hMSC(P<0.05),and the survival advantage of De-hMSC was not obviously affected by IDO gene modification(P>0.05). Conditioned medium containing the supernatant from IDO/De- hMSC dramatically up- regulated the percentage of CD4+CD25+CD127low Treg cells in PBMC in contrast to the control groups(P<0.05).【Conclusions】IDO/ De- hMSC have the same immunophenotype and differentiation capacity as the native hMSC ,and can simultaneously enhance the ability of hMSC to survive against oxidative stress and to induce Treg cells ,which may be a potential modification strategy of mesenchymal stem cells for immunosuppressive therapy.

<p><b>Background</b>Dendritic cells (DCs) play an important role in host defense against pathogen infection. DC-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing nonintegrin (SIGN) is a group II C-type lectin receptor and specifically expressed on the surface of DCs. This study aimed to determine whether DC-SIGN affects intracellular signaling activation, Th1/Th2 imbalance and aspergillus immune evasion in aspergillus infection, and explore the application of DC-SIGN-modified DCs in immunotherapy.</p><p><b>Methods</b>DCs were first obtained from the mononuclear cells of peripheral blood. The interferon (IFN)-γ and dexamethasone (Dex) were used to stimulate DCs. The expression of DC-SIGN, Th1 and Th2 cytokines, and the capacity of DCs in stimulating T cells proliferation and phagocytosis, and nuclear factor (NF)-κB activation were analyzed. In addition, adenovirus expression vector Ad-DC-SIGN was generated to transfect DCs. Mannan was used to block DC-SIGN signaling for confirming the involvement of DC-SIGN function in Aspergillus fumigatus (Af)-induced DCs maturation. The unpaired, two-tailed Student's t-test was used in the comparisons between two groups.</p><p><b>Results</b>Exogenous IFN-γ could activate Af-induced DCs and promote the Th0 cells toward Th1 profile (interleukin [IL]-12 in IFN-γ/Af group: 50.96 ± 4.38 pg/ml; control/Af group: 29.70 ± 2.00 pg/ml, t = 10.815, P < 0.001). On the other hand, Dex inhibited the secretion of Th2 cytokines (IL-10 in Dex/Af group: 5.27 ± 0.85 pg/ml; control/Af group: 15.14 ± 1.40 pg/ml, t = 14.761, P < 0.001)), and successfully caused immunosuppression. After transfection with Ad-DC-SIGN, DCs have improved phagocytosis (phagocytosis rates in Ad-DC-SIGN group: 74.0% ± 3.4%; control group: 64.7% ± 6.8%, t = 3.104, P = 0.013). There was more Th1 cytokine secreted in the Af-induced DC-SIGN modified DCs (IL-12 in Ad-DC-SIGN/Af group: 471.98 ± 166.31 pg/ml; control/Af group: 33.35 ± 5.98 pg/ml, t = 6.456, P = 0.001), correlated to the enhanced NF-κB activation.</p><p><b>Conclusion</b>Overexpressing DC-SIGN in DCs had a protective function on aspergillosis.</p>
Résumé
Different from Western medicine theory, Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge is tacit knowledge, and the Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge system also is a complete system independent from the Western medicine system. But the protection for Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge nowadays still mainly stems from the Western intellectual property system. The current intellectual property system is in a dilemma in the protection of Traditional Chinese Medicine due to its limitations, and it urgently needs to build a special knowledge protection system that is specially applicable to traditional knowledge;while using genetic resources protection system and benefit sharing system of traditional knowledge from Convention on Biological Diversity to protect Traditional Chinese Medicine has its advanced nature and rationality. In the premise of clarifying the definition of "intellectual property right of Traditional Chinese Medicine", this paper proposed 5 countermeasures and suggestions, including establishing the legal content of Traditional Chinese Medicine intellectual property, promoting the legislative coordination of existing intellectual property law and the Law of the People' s Republic of China on TCM, strengthening the institutional coordination of the Law of the People' s Republic of China on TCM, the Law of Intangible Cultural Heritage and the Law of the People' s Republic of China on Drug Administration, promoting the institutional innovation at the local legislation level, and building a benefit sharing mechanism for the holders of Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge.
Résumé
OBJECTIVE@#To study the influence of the number and position of anchor nails on the Bankart repair by the finite element analysis.@*METHODS@#The 3D CT data of shoulder joints including normal adult volunteers were imported into Mimics 10.0 and Geomagic 2012 software to reconstruct the related tissues, and then meshed in Hypermesh 13.0 software to give material attributes. The position and number of MPC constraints were adjusted in Abaqus 6.14 to establish finite element model of shoulder joint under 6 working conditions including A model(normal control model), B model (Bankart damage control model), C model (1 anchor), D model (2 anchors), E model (3 anchors), F model (4 anchors). The humerus external rotation and forward load were added to simulate the fear test of the shoulder joint forward instability.@*RESULTS@#(1)Normally, the inferior glenohumeral ligament complex accompanied by the external rotation of the humerus head has a wrinkle and a significant stress concentration around its anterior and posterior bundle terminations.(2)The stress of the anterior bundle and posterior bundle of the inferior glenohumeral ligament were increased by 52.33% and 45.67% respectively after Bankart's injury.(3)In each model of anchor repair, the stress concentration was obvious at the anchor site, and the stress of anterior and posterior bundle ligaments could be reduced; there were no obvious differences between C, D models and B model(>0.05), and there were significant differences between E, F models and B model(<0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#One or two anchors can reduce the stress of the anterior and posterior bundles of the inferior glenohumeral ligament in the repair of Bankart's injury, but when the angle of rotation is large, the stress concentration in the anchor position increases significantly, leading to the increases of the risk of failure. The application of three or four anchors can enhance the constraints on the inferior glenohumeral ligament and reduce the stress of the anchor itself through the "load sharing" effect between anchors, so as to ensure the stability of the shoulder joint and provide a mechanical environment for the early rehabilitation of patients.
