RESUMO
The essence of cirrhosis is the over-repairing reaction of liver tissue damage in the process of chronic liver disease.During repair,the liver parenchyma is gradually replaced by fibrosis tissue,resulting in changes in liver tissue morphology,followed by portal hypertension and other related manifestations.Liver failure are serious disorder of liver functions(synthesis,metabolism,transformation,regeneration,etc.)caused by various factors,often mainly manifested as jaundice,coagulation disfunction,hepatic encephalopathy,ascites,etc.The naming and typing of the two are different,and they can exist independently of each other or intersect with each other.In recent years,with the in-depth exploration of cirrhosis and liver failure,many new definitions and classification methods have been put forward in the research.However,due to the confusion of classification methods,there is still a lack of summary,so this article briefly reviews the current progress of clinical classification of liver cirrhosis and liver failure and their differences and intersections.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the clinical and MR characteristics of fibroadenoma(FA)and phyllodes tumor(PT)with maxi-mum diameter≥5 cm.Methods A total of 33 cases with FA and 34 cases with PT were selected,and all lesions with maximum diameter≥5 cm were confirmed by surgical pathology.The clinical and MR characteristics were analyzed retrospectively.Results PT and FA with tumor maximum diameter≥5 cm were more common in perimenopausal women[(47.35±11.36)years old vs(49.42±11.73)years old,P>0.05],while the FA patient was with the wider age range(19-79 years old).There was statistically significant difference in tumor maximum diameter between PT group and FA group(P<0.001),and tumor maximum diameter of PT group(median 7.06 cm,tumor maximum diameter 17.3 cm)was significantly larger than that of FA group.Coarse calcification was more common in the FA group compared to the PT group(5 vs 0,P=0.011).High signal on T1WI was more common in PT group rela-tive to FA group(50%vs 9.1%,P<0.001).There were no significant differences between the two groups in four characteristics,including tumor margin lobulation(97.1%vs 81.8%),T2WI low signal separation(32.4%vs 30.3%),fibroglandular tissue(FGT),and background parenchymal enhancement(BPE)(P>0.05).Time-signal intensity curve(TIC)of FA group showed typeⅠ and Ⅱ curves,while 4 cases(11.8%)in PT group showed type Ⅲ curves,and there was statistically significant difference in TIC between the two groups(P=0.008).The apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values of PT group[(1.48±0.17)×10-3mm2/s]was slightly lower than that of FA group[(1.55±0.20)×10-3 mm2/s],and there was no significant difference in ADC between the two groups(P>0.05).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve showed that the best diagnostic cut-off value for distinguishing between PT and FA with maximum diameter≥5 cm was 6.36 cm,the area under the curve(AUC)was 0.927[95%confidence in-terval(CI)0.860-0.994;P<0.001].The AUC of the T1 WI high signal was 0.705,and the standard error was 0.065(95%CI 0.578-0.831;P=0.004).Conclusion Among FA and PT with tumor maximum diameter≥5 cm,PT appear to be more larger lesion and prone to higher signal intensity on T1WI compared to FA,while coarse calcification is more common in FA.

RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the effect of combining contralateral high-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) with biofeedback-controlled empty swallowing training on dysphagia among stroke survivors.Methods:Eighty dysphagic stroke survivors were divided at random into a control group, a biofeedback group, an rTMS group and a combined treatment group, each of 20. In addition to routine dysphagia rehabilitation, the biofeedback group and the rTMS group received empty swallowing training based on biofeedback or high-frequency rTMS applied to the healthy motor cortex as appropriate. The combined treatment group was given both. The treatment was administered once daily, 5 days a week for 3 consecutive weeks. Before and after the treatment, all of the subjects′ swallowing was evaluated using the penetration aspiration scale (PAS), functional oral intake scale (FOIS) and a standardized swallowing assessment (SSA). The latency and amplitude of the mylohyoid muscle′s motor evoked potentials (MEPs) were also recorded before and after the treatment.Results:After the treatment, significant improvement was observed in the average PAS, FOIS and SSA scores as well as in the latency and amplitude of the MEPs in the four groups. The average results in the combined treatment group were significantly better than in the other 3 groups. The latency of the mylohyoid muscle′s MEP was significantly shorter in the combined group than in the control and biofeedback groups on average, while the amplitude was significantly greater than in the control group.Conclusion:Combining contralateral high frequency rTMS with empty swallowing training based on biofeedback can better improve the swallowing of dysphagic stroke survivors.
RESUMO
Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world， with its morbidity and mortality ranking at the top. The early symptoms are not obvious， and the biological structure is complex， so many patients have missed the optimal treatment time. At present， the treatment of lung cancer in modern medicine is dominated by first-line chemotherapy and surgical treatment with platinum-containing regimen， which has relatively large side effects， poor prognosis， and a high risk of metastasis and recurrence. With the gradual rise of targeted therapy and immunotherapy for lung cancer， the overall recovery of patients with lung cancer is still poor and the survival rate is low， despite more abundant treatment methods. From the perspective of holistic concept and syndrome differentiation， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） plays an important role in the prognosis of tumor patients， with many targets， a wide range and light toxic and side effect. Modern studies have shown that the occurrence and development of lung cancer are closely related to the abnormality of multiple signaling pathways， and the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， as one of the most important pathways in cancer， is involved in the whole process of lung cancer development by regulating the expression of related signaling proteins and genes. In recent years， many studies have confirmed that TCM monomers and TCM compounds can inhibit the epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） process of lung cancer and the activity of lung cancer stem cells （LCSCs） by regulating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway， induce lung cancer cell apoptosis， inhibit the proliferation， invasion and migration of lung cancer cells， and thus play an anti-lung cancer role. In recent years， research in this field has made breakthroughs， but there is a lack of systematic reviews and summaries. Thus， this paper reviewed relevant literature worldwide to analyze and interpret the mechanism of TCM intervention in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway against lung cancer. The TCM monomers targeted to regulate this signaling pathway were summarized in four categories： promoting blood circulation for removing blood stasis， clearing heat and removing dampness， clearing heat and removing toxicity， and awakening the spirit. TCM compounds included Buzhong Yiqitang， Xuefu Zhuyutang， et al. This study aims to provide new ideas for clinical research and drug development for lung cancer.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#To report the clinical characteristics and treatment analysis of 3 cases of congenital ulnar collateral flexor contracture of the forearm and take a reference for clinic.@*METHODS@#A total of 3 patients with congenital ulnar collateral flexor contracture of the forearm were admitted between February 2019 and August 2021. Two patients were male and 1 was female, and their ages were 16, 20, and 16 years, respectively. The disease durations were 8, 20, and 15 years, respectively. They all presented with flexion deformity of the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints of the middle, ring, and little fingers in the neutral or extended wrist position, and the deformity worsened in the extended wrist position. The total action motion (TAM) scores of 3 patients were 1 and the gradings were poor. The Carroll's hand function evaluation scores were 48, 55, and 57, and the grip strength indexes were 72.8, 78.4, and 30.5. Preoperative CT of case 2 showed a bony protrusion of the flexor digitorum profundus tendon at the proximal end of the ulna; and MRI of case 3 showed that the ulnar flexor digitorum profundus presented as a uniform cord. After diagnosis, all patients were treated with operation to release the denatured tendon, and functional exercise was started early after operation.@*RESULTS@#The incisions of 3 patients healed by first intention. Three patients were followed up for 12, 35, and 12 months, respectively. The hand function and the movement range of the joints significantly improved, but the grip strength did not significantly improve. At last follow-up, TAM scores were 3, 4, and 4, respectively, among which 2 cases were excellent and 1 case was good. Carroll's hand function evaluation scores were 95, 90, and 94, and the grip strength indexes were 73.5, 81.3, and 34.2, respectively.@*CONCLUSION@#Congenital ulnar collateral flexor contracture is a rare clinical disease that should be distinguished from ischemic muscle contracture. The location of the contracture should be identified and appropriate surgical timing should be selected for surgical release. Active postoperative rehabilitation and functional exercise can achieve good hand function.

Acupuncture, a therapeutic treatment defined as the insertion of needles into the body at specific points (ie, acupoints), has growing in popularity world-wide to treat various diseases effectively, especially acute and chronic pain. In parallel, interest in the physiological mechanisms underlying acupuncture analgesia, particularly the neural mechanisms have been increasing. Over the past decades, our understanding of how the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system process signals induced by acupuncture has developed rapidly by using electrophysiological methods. However, with the development of neuroscience, electrophysiology is being challenged by calcium imaging in view field, neuron population and visualization in vivo. Owing to the outstanding spatial resolution, the novel imaging approaches provide opportunities to enrich our knowledge about the neurophysiological mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia at subcellular, cellular, and circuit levels in combination with new labeling, genetic and circuit tracing techniques. Therefore, this review will introduce the principle and the method of calcium imaging applied to acupuncture research. We will also review the current findings in pain research using calcium imaging from in vitro to in vivo experiments and discuss the potential methodological considerations in studying acupuncture analgesia.

Purpose@#This study aimed to analyze the expression and prognosis of SRY-box transcription factor 11 (SOX11) in neuroblastoma (NB), as well as the biological function and potential regulatory mechanism of SOX11 in NB. @*Methods@#Public RNA sequencing was used to detect the expression level of SOX11. The Kaplan-Meier curve and hazard ratios (HR) were used to determine the prognostic value of SOX11 in NB. Functional analyses were performed using CCK8, wound healing assay, and transwell invasion assay. Finally, the potential target genes of SOX11 were predicted by Harmonizonme (Ma'ayan Laboratory) and Cistrome Data Browser (Cistrome Project) database to explore the potential molecular mechanism of SOX11 in NB. @*Results@#Compared with normal adrenal tissue, the expression of SOX11 in NB tissue was significantly upregulated. The Kaplan-Meier curve showed that high expression of SOX11 was associated with poor prognosis in children with NB (HR, 1.719; P = 0.049). SOX11 knockdown suppressed the migration capacity of SK-N-SH cells but did not affect proliferation and invasion capacity. Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) may be a potential downstream target gene for the transcription factor SOX11 to play a role in NB. @*Conclusion@#The transcription factor SOX11 was significantly upregulated in NB. SOX11 knockdown suppressed the migration capacity of NB cell SK-N-SH. SOX11 may promote the progression of NB by targeting EZH2.
RESUMO
Purpose To explore the application value of combining 18F-FDG PET images with interpretable deep learning radiomics(IDLR)models in the differential diagnosis of primary Parkinson's disease(IPD)and atypical Parkinson's syndrome.Materials and Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted using the Parkinson's Disease PET Imaging Benchmark Database from Huashan Hospital,Fudan University from March 2015 to February 2023.A total of 330 Parkinson's disease patients underwent 18F-FDG PET imaging,both 18F-FDG PET imaging and clinical scale information were collected for all subjects.The study included two cohorts,a training group(n=270)and a testing group(n=60),with a total of 211 cases in the IPD group,59 cases in the progressive supranuclear palsy(PSP)group,and a group of 60 patients with multiple system atrophy(MSA).The clinical information between different groups were compared.An IDLR model was developed to extract feature indicators.Under the supervision of radiomics features,IDLR features were selected from the features collected by neural network extractors,and a binary support vector machine model was constructed for the selected features in images of in testing group.The constructed IDLR model,traditional radiomics model and standard uptake ratio model were separately used to calculate the performance metrics and area under curve values of deep learning models for pairwise classification between IPD/PSP/MSA groups.The study conducted independent classification and testing in two cohorts using 100 10-fold cross-validation tests.Brain-related regions of interest were displayed through feature mapping,using gradient weighted class activation maps to highlight and visualize the most relevant information in the brain.The output heatmaps of different disease groups were examined and compared with clinical diagnostic locations.Results The IDLR model showed promising results for differentiating between Parkinson's syndrome patients.It achieved the best classification performance and had the highest area under the curve values compared to other comparative models such as the standard uptake ratio model(Z=1.22-3.23,all P<0.05),and radiomics model(Z=1.31-2.96,all P<0.05).The area under the curve values for the IDLR model in differentiating MSA and IPD were 0.935 7,for MSA and PSP were 0.975 4,for IPD and PSP were 0.982 5 in the test set.The IDLR model also showed consistency between its filtered feature maps and the visualization of gradient-weighted class activation mapping slice thermal maps in the radiomics regions of interest.Conclusion The IDLR model has the potential for differential diagnosis between IPD and atypical Parkinson's syndrome in 18F-FDG PET images.
RESUMO
Purpose To investigate the clinical value of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MRI for the preoperative evaluation of colorectal cancer liver metastases(CRCLM).Materials and Methods Fifty-six CRCLM patients with 156 CRCLM lesions confirmed by surgical pathology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine from September 2019 to March 2023 were collected,and all underwent dynamic Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI.The characteristic manifestations of T2WI,diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI),arterial phase and hepatobiliary phase(HBP)were observed,and the detection rate of each sequence was calculated,and then the signal intensity ratio of lesions to liver parenchyma on HBP and the apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)were calculated.The ADC values of lesions with reversed target and target signs and lesions with homogeneous and heterogeneous hypointensity on HBP and the detection rate of each sequence were compared.Results Among 156 CRCLM lesions,20.51%(32/156)and 38.46%(60/156)exhibited a target appearance on T2WI,51.28%(80/156)displayed a target sign on DWI,73.72%(115/156)showed rim enhancement on the arterial phase,and 34.62%(54/156)presented a target sign on HBP.The mean ADC value of lesions with reversed target and target signs on HBP did not significantly differ from that of lesions with homogeneous and heterogeneous hypointensity on HBP[(0.98±0.43)×10-3 mm2/s vs.(1.01±0.47)×10-3 mm2/s;t=-0.340,P=0.327].Based on the size of CRCLM lesions,three groups were categorized,including<1.0 cm(41 lesions),1.0-2.0 cm(55 lesions),and>2.0 cm(60 lesions).The overall detection rate of HBP(96.79%)was the highest compared with T2WI,DWI and Gd-EOB-DTPA four-phase dynamic contrast-enhanced multiphase imaging(P<0.05).Regarding<1.0 cm lesions,the detection rate of HBP(87.80%)was superior to that of T2WI,DWI and Gd-EOB-DTPA four-phase dynamic contrast-enhanced multiphase imaging(P<0.05).Conclusion Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI has important clinical value for the preoperative evaluation of CRCLM,especially the features of target sign or reversed target sign on HBP and the excellent efficacy of detecting microscopic lesions.
RESUMO
Obiective Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS) caused by a variety of risk factors. There are various pathological changes, but apoptosis of the neurological meridian cells is one of the most important pathological bases. Hyperlipidemia is a high-risk factor for the development of AD, which can lead to increased levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) in brain tissues. PCSK9 is a protease closely related to lipid metabolism, but studies have shown that it may be related to the development of AD. LRP1 is abundantly expressed in neuronal cells, and it is an important transporter for the clearance of Aβ. There is now a large amount of literature confirming that PCSK9 can induce the degradation of LRP1. PI3K/AKT is an important signaling pathway in vivo, which plays an important role in apoptosis, and there is now a large amount of literature confirming that LRP1 activates the PI3K/AKT pathway, which has an anti-apoptotic effect. So can PCSK9 affect the PI3K/AKT pathway through LRP1 and thus regulate neuronal apoptosis? This deserves further investigation.The aim of this study was to explore the role of PCSK9 in mediating ox-LDL pro-apoptotic neuronal cell death and its mechanism, and then further elaborate the mechanism of hyperlipidemia leading to neurodegenerative diseases such as AD. MethodsFirstly, PC12 cells were treated with different concentrations of ox-LDL (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg/L) for 24 h. Oil red O staining was used to detect lipid accumulation in PC12 cells, Hoechst33258 staining and flow cytometry to detect apoptosis in PC12 cells, ELISA to detect the content of Aβ secreted by PC12, Western blot to detect expression of SREBP2, PCSK9 and LRP1. Then PC12 cells were treated with 75 mg/L ox-LDL for different times (0, 6, 12, 24, 48 h), and Western blot were performed to detect the expression of SREBP2, PCSK9 and LRP1. Finally, after transfecting 100 nmol/L PCSK9 siRNA into PC12 cells for 48 h, PC12 cells were treated with 75 mg/L ox-LDL for 24 h, Hoechst33258 staining and flow cytometry to detect apoptosis rate of PC12 cells, and Western blot to detect PCSK9, LRP1, PI3K, AKT, P-PI3K , P-AKT, NF-κB, Bcl-2, Bax, Caspase-9 and Caspase-3 expression, and ELISA detected Aβ content secreted by PC12 cells. Resultsox-LDL increased lipid accumulation and promoted apoptosis and Aβ secretion in PC12 cells, as well as increasing the expression of SREBP2 and PCSK9 and decreasing the expression of LRP1 in PC12 cells. pCsk9 siRNA could be inhibited through the PI3K/AKT pathway and the NF-κB-Bcl-2/Bax-Caspase-9/3 pathway to inhibit ox-LDL-induced apoptosis in PC12 cells while increasing Aβ secretion in PC12 cells. Conclusionox-LDL plays a bidirectional regulatory role in ox-LDL-induced apoptosis of PC12 cells by inducing an increase in PCSK9 expression and a decrease in LRP1 expression in PC12 cells, which in turn affects different signaling pathways downstream.
RESUMO
The prevalence of obesity has increased worldwide in recent decades. Genetic factors are now known to play a substantial role in the predisposition to obesity and may contribute up to 70% of the risk for obesity. Technological advancements during the last decades have allowed the identification of many hundreds of genetic markers associated with obesity. However, the transformation of current genetic variant-obesity associations into biological knowledge has been proven challenging. Genomics and proteomics are complementary fields, as proteomics extends functional analyses. Integrating genomic and proteomic data can help to bridge a gap in knowledge regarding genetic variant-obesity associations and to identify new drug targets for the treatment of obesity. We provide an overview of the published papers on the integrated analysis of proteomic and genomic data in obesity and summarize four mainstream strategies: overlap, colocalization, Mendelian randomization, and proteome-wide association studies. The integrated analyses identified many obesity-associated proteins, such as leptin, follistatin, and adenylate cyclase 3. Despite great progress, integrative studies focusing on obesity are still limited. There is an increased demand for large prospective cohort studies to identify and validate findings, and further apply these findings to the prevention, intervention, and treatment of obesity. In addition, we also discuss several other potential integration methods.

Objective: To understand ten-year changes in clinical characteristics and antiviral treatment patterns of chronic hepatitis B in China. Methods: Patients with chronic HBV infection:demographic, virologic, hematologic, blood biochemistry, and antiviral treatment data were extracted from the China Registry of Hepatitis B (CR-HepB) database between 2012 and 2022 for descriptive statistics and change trend analysis. Multiple group comparisons were conducted using the Kruskal Wallis H test, while counting data was compared between groups using χ (2) test. Results: A total of 180 012 patients with chronic HBV infection were included, with a median age of 40 years old, and a male proportion accounting for 60.2%. The HBeAg positive rate was 43.3%. Over time, the median age of new patients each year increased from 39 to 47 years, while the HBeAg positive rate decreased from 51.3% to 32.8%. The initial diagnosis of patients was mainly CHB (71.4%), followed by hepatitis B cirrhosis (11.8%), inactive HBsAg carrier status (10.6%), and chronic HBV carrier status (6.2%). Among the newly registered patients every year from 2012 to 2022, the proportion of hepatitis B cirrhosis remained stable, but after 2019, the proportion of CHB increased and the proportion of other diagnoses decreased. The proportion of patients with cirrhosis increased with age in different age groups, with 3.5%, 19.3%, and 30.4% in the < 40, 40-69, and≥70 age groups, respectively. The proportion of women in patients with cirrhosis also increased with age, from 16.1% in those < 30 years old to 44.3% in those≥80 years old. From 2012 to 2022, the proportion of patients receiving first-line nucleos(t)ide analog antiviral treatment increased year by year, from 51.0% in 2012-2013 to 99.8% in 2022. Conclusion: The CR-HepB registration data reflect the changes in clinical characteristics and antiviral treatment patterns in patients with chronic HBV infection in China over the past ten years and can thus provide a reference to promote hepatitis B diagnosis and treatment practice, as well as scientific research.

Methods:From May 2014 to December 2015, 11C-CFT PET and MRI T 1 brain images of 16 healthy volunteers (3 males, 13 females; age (63.3±6.9) years) from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University were co-registered and smoothed using statistical parametric mapping(SPM)5 software based on MATLAB to create a standard spatial brain template. The ROIs template was established by ScAnVp procedures. These templates were clinically verified by using 11C-CFT PET images of 37 healthy volunteers (23 males, 14 females; age (61.7±7.1) years), 32 Parkinson′s disease (PD) patients (20 males, 12 females; age (61.1±5.4) years), 10 multiple system atrophy with predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P) patients (7 males, 3 females; age (60.8±7.1) years) and 10 progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) patients (5 males, 5 females; age (58.4±6.1) years) from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University between January 2014 and March 2019. One-way analysis of variance was used to analyze data. Results:Based on the 11C-CFT PET images and MRI T 1 images of healthy volunteers, a standard spatial brain template for normalization of 11C-CFT PET images was created. The ROIs template was established including seven regions: bilateral caudate, anterior putamen, posterior putamen (along the long axis) and the occipital cortex. The ROIs template was accurately aligned in each verification group. The normal reference values of semi-quantitative DAT distribution in caudate, anterior putamen and posterior putamen were obtained (1.84±0.13, 2.18±0.16, 1.77±0.11). The semi-quantitative values of 11C-CFT uptake in each ROI in patients were significantly lower than those in healthy volunteers ( F values: 49.79-283.83, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The established brain templates with accurate spatial alignment for 11C-CFT image analysis can provide foundational tools for the application of 11C-CFT PET imaging in clinical practice and scientific research.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the effect of Mongolian medicine Eerdun Wurile on postoperative cognitive function in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy.Methods:Sixty elderly patients of either gender, aged ≥60 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, with body mass index≤28 kg/m 2, with preoperative Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score ≥27 points, undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=30 each) using the random number table method: control group (group C) and Eerdun Wurile group (group E). Eerdun Wurile 15 capsules per day were taken for 7 consecutive days starting from 3 days before surgery in group E, and placebo was given instead in group C. The peripheral venous blood samples were collected before medication at 3 days before surgery (T 1) and 24 and 72 h after surgery (T 2, 3) for determination of the concentrations of serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and Tau proteins by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The patients′ cognitive function was assessed by MMSE at T 1 and 5 days after surgery (T 4), and the occurrence of cognitive decline (MMSE score < 27) was recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the serum BDNF concentration was significantly increased at T 2 and T 3, and the concentrations of IL-1β, TNF-α and Tau protein were decreased, the MMSE score was increased at T 4, and the incidence of cognitive decline was decreased in group E ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Mongolian medicine Eerdun Wurile can improve postoperative cognitive function in elderly patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery, and the mechanism may be related to reduction of systemic inflammatory responses and promotion of nerve cell repair and regeneration.
