Value of peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in the diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia in children / 国际检验医学杂志

Objective To analyze the value of peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in the diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)in children.Methods A total of 120 children with MPP who were admitted to the hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 were selected as the observation group,80 children with pulmonary tuberculosis(TB)were selected as the control group.During the same pe-riod,120 healthy children who were examined at the hospital check-up center were selected as the health group.The clinical data from each group were retrospective analyzed,and fasting venous blood from subjects was collected.The levels of T-lymphocyte subsets CD3+,CD4+and CD8+were detected by flow cytometry in each group,and the CD4+/CD8+was calculated.The levels of interferon(IFN)-y,interleukin-8(IL-8),inter-leukin-10(IL-10)and interleukin-13(IL-13)were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and the levels of peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in each group were compared.The receiver op-erating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the value of peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets and cytokines in the diagnosis of MPP in children.Results The levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,IL-13,and IL-10 in the observation group and control group were significantly lower than those in the health group(P＜0.05),while CD8+,IL-8,and IFN-γ levels were significantly higher than those in the health group(P＜0.05).Compared with the control group,the observation group had higher levels of CD3+,CD8+,IL-8,IFN-γand lower levels of CD4+,CD4+/CD8+(P＜0.05),and there were no statistically significant differences in IL-8 and IL-13 levels between the two groups(P＞0.05).The ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)or CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,IL-8,IFN-γ,IL-13,and IL-10 for the diagnosis of MPP in children were 0.751,0.687,0.784,0.864,0.798,0.672,0.650,and 0.811,and AUC of the combined detection was 0.924.Conclusion Children with TB and MPP have significantly decreased immune function in the early stages of the disease,and abnormal expression of peripheral blood T-lymphocyte subsets and cytokines.Com-pared with TB children,MPP children have lower levels of CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,and higher levels of CD3+,CD8+,IL-10 and IFN-γ,and the T-lymphocyte subsets and cytokine levels are closely related to the changes in the patients'condition.The combined detection of CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+,IL-8,IFN-γ,IL-13 and IL-10 provides a theoretical basis for identifying and diagnosing early MPP in children.

Prevalence rate and influencing factors of restless leg syndrome in maintenance hemodialysis patients in Anhui province / 中华肾脏病杂志

Objective:To explore the prevalence rate of restless leg syndrome (RLS) and its related influencing factors in patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) in Anhui province.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study, including regular MHD patients in blood purification centers of 27 hospitals in southern, central and northern Anhui province from January to March 2020. The investigation included general demographic characteristics, primary diseases, complications, dialysis-related conditions and drug use. According to the presence or absence of RLS, the patients were divided into RLS group and non-RLS group, and the differences of clinical data between the two groups were compared. Logistic regression analysis method was used to analyze the influencing factors of RLS.Results:The study included 3 025 MHD patients, aged (54.8±12.8) years old, with 1 819 males (60.1%) and 1 206 females (39.9%). The dialysis age was (5.5±3.8) years. The prevalence rates of RLS in MHD patients were 8.8% (265/3 025), of which 13.7% (77/561), 7.7% (88/1 145) and 7.6% (100/1 319) in southern, central and northern Anhui province, respectively. The prevalence rates of RLS in MHD patients in secondary and tertiary hospitals were 9.5% (55/577) and 8.6% (210/2 448), respectively. Proportion of hypertension, dialysis age, intact parathyroid hormone, alkaline phosphatase, 25(OH)D3, and proportions of secondary hyperparathyroidism, erythropoietin use, iron supplements, active vitamin D use, calcimimetic use, dialysis blood flow <250 ml/min and low-flux dialyzers in RLS group were higher than those in non-RLS group, while hemoglobin level and proportions of non-calcium-phosphorus binders and high-flux dialyzers were lower than those in non-RLS group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that long dialysis age ( OR=1.188, 95% CI 1.031-1.369, P=0.017) and high alkaline phosphatase ( OR=1.007, 95% CI 1.001-1.013, P=0.047) were correlated with a higher risk of RLS in MHD patients. Conclusions:The prevalence rate of RLS in MHD patients in Anhui province is 8.8%. The prevalence rates of RLS in MHD patients in southern, central and northern Anhui province are 13.7%, 7.7% and 7.6%, respectively. The prevalence rate of RLS in secondary and tertiary hospitals are 9.5% and 8.6%, respectively. Long dialysis age and high alkaline phosphatase are associated with a high risk of RLS in MHD patients.

Remodeling of tumor stroma combined with photothermal therapy in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer / 中华肿瘤杂志

Objective: Polyethylene glycol-modified gold nanostar particles (GNS-PEG) were constructed to investigate whether the degradation of extracellular matrix in triple-negative breast cancer could improve the tumor delivery of GNS-PEG and enhance the efficacy of photothermal therapy. Methods: GNS-PEG were constructed and characterized for physicochemical properties as well as photothermal properties. At the cellular level, the cytotoxicity of halofuginone (HF) and the effect of photothermal therapy were detected. Mouse model of triple negative breast cancer was established by subcutaneous inoculation of 4T1 cells in BALB/c nude mice. Five injections of HF were given via tail vein (HF group), and tumor sections were stained with Masson stain and immunohistochemical staining for transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and CD31 to observe the effect of tumor stromal degradation. Five injections of HF via tail vein followed by GNS-PEG (HF+ GNS-PEG group) were applied to determine the content of gold in tumor tissues by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. The tumor sites of the mice in the GNS-PEG and HF+ GNS-PEG groups were irradiated with NIR laser and the temperature changes were recorded with an IR camera. The tumour growth and weight changes of mice in each group were observed. Ki-67 immunohistochemical staining, TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling and HE staining were performed on tumor tissue sections from each group to observe tumor proliferation, apoptosis and necrosis. HE staining was performed on heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney tissues from each group to observe the morphological changes of cells. Results: GNS-PEG nanoparticles showed a multi-branched structure with a particle size of 73.5±1.4 nm. The absorption peak of GNS was 810 nm, which is in the near infrared region. The photothermal conversion rate of GNS-PEG was up to 79.3%, and the photothermal effect could be controlled by the laser energy. HF has a concentration-dependent cytotoxicity, with a cell survival rate being as low as (22.8±2.6)% at HF concentration of up to 1 000 nmol/L. The photothermal effect of GNS-PEG was significant in killing tumor cells, with a cell survival rate of (32.7±5.2)% at the concentration of 25 pmol/L. The collagen area fraction, TGFβ1 integrated optical density and α-SMA integrated optical density in the tumor tissues of mice in the HF group were (2.1±0.2)%, 3.1±0.4 and 5.2±1.9, respectively, which were lower than those of the control group (all P<0.01), and the vessel diameter was 8.6±2.9 μm, which was higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). In the HF+ GNS-PEG group, the concentration of gold in tissues was 52.4 μg/g, higher than that in the GNS-PEG group (15.9 μg/g, P<0.05). After laser irradiation, the temperature of the tumor site in the HF+ GNS-PEG group was significantly higher than that in the GNS-PEG group. At the 4th minute, the temperatures of the tumor site in the GNS-PEG and HF+ GNS-PEG groups were 51.5 ℃ and 57.7 ℃ respectively; the tumor volume in the HF+ GNS-PEG group was effectively suppressed. The body weights of the mice in each group did not change significantly during the monitoring period. No significant abnormalities were observed in the main organs of the mice in the GNS-PEG group, but some hepatocytes in the HF and HF+ GNS-PEG groups showed edema and degeneration. Conclusion: The remodeling of extracellular matrix in triple-negative breast cancer could significantly improve the intratumoral delivery of GNS-PEG and thus achieve better photothermal therapy effect.

Hyperglycemia-Suppressed SMARCA5 Disrupts Transcriptional Homeostasis to Facilitate Endothelial Dysfunction in Diabetes

Background@#Dysfunction of vascular endothelial cells (ECs) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular complications in diabetes. SWI/SNF-related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily A member 5 (SMARCA5) is a key regulator of chromatin structure and DNA repair, but its role in ECs remains surprisingly unexplored. The current study was designed to elucidate the regulated expression and function of SMARCA5 in diabetic ECs. @*Methods@#SMARCA5 expression was evaluated in ECs from diabetic mouse and human circulating CD34+ cells using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. Effects of SMARCA5 manipulation on ECs function were evaluated using cell migration, in vitro tube formation and in vivo wound healing assays. Interaction among oxidative stress, SMARCA5 and transcriptional reprogramming was elucidated using luciferase reporter assay, electrophoretic mobility shift assay and chromatin immunoprecipitation. @*Results@#Endothelial SMARCA5 expression was significantly decreased in diabetic rodents and humans. Hyperglycemia-suppressed SMARCA5 impaired EC migration and tube formation in vitro, and blunted vasculogenesis in vivo. Contrarily, overexpression of SMARCA5 in situ by a SMARCA5 adenovirus-incorporated hydrogel effectively promoted the rate of wound healing in a dorsal skin punch injury model of diabetic mice. Mechanistically, hyperglycemia-elicited oxidative stress suppressed SMARCA5 transactivation in a signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3)-dependent manner. Moreover, SMARCA5 maintained transcriptional homeostasis of several pro-angiogenic factors through both direct and indirect chromatin-remodeling mechanisms. In contrast, depletion of SMARCA5 disrupted transcriptional homeostasis to render ECs unresponsive to established angiogenic factors, which ultimately resulted in endothelial dysfunction in diabetes. @*Conclusion@#Suppression of endothelial SMARCA5 contributes to, at least in part, multiple aspects of endothelial dysfunction, which may thereby exacerbate cardiovascular complications in diabetes.

Clinical value of intracranial pressure monitoring combined with target temperature management in acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke / 中华神经医学杂志

Objective:To observe the clinical value of intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring combined with target temperature management (TTM) in patients with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy.Methods:A prospective analysis was performed. Ninety-two patients with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke who received mechanical thrombectomy from March 2019 to June 2022 in Department of Neurosurgery, He'nan Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled. Within 1-5 d of mechanical thrombectomy, these patients were randomly divided into observation group ( n=46) and control group ( n=46). The patients in observation group received comprehensive management for neurological critical illness through multimodal monitoring such as ICP real-time monitoring combined with TTM (controlling the core temperature at 33℃-35℃), while patients in control group received simple ICP real-time monitoring. ICP monitoring for both groups lasted for 5-7 d, and routine symptomatic support treatment was given. Stepwise treatment was adopted based on real-time changes of ICP. The differences in clinical data, ICP at different times, incidence of adverse events, length of hospital stay, mortality rate, and prognoses were compared between the 2 groups. Results:On the 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th, and 5 th d of monitoring, the observation group had significantly decreased ICP compared with the control group ( P<0.05). Both observation group and control group had significantly increased ICP on the 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th, and 5 th d of monitoring compared with that on the 1 st d of monitoring ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group had statistically higher incidences of shivers and electrolyte disorders, and statistically lower incidences of unstable blood pressure, cerebral heart syndrome, septic shock, and cerebral hernia during hospitalization ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group had significantly shortened hospital stay, and statistically lower modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores, higher Glasgow outcome scale-extended (GOS-E) scores, higher good prognosis rate, and lower mortality rate 6 months after mechanical thrombectomy ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group had statistically lower incidences of postoperative cerebral hemorrhage conversion and recurrent cerebral infarction ( P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the survival rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:ICP monitoring combined with TTM can reduce early complications, shorten hospital stay, reduce mortality, and improve long-term prognosis in patients with acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy.

Exploring the Mechanism and Experimental Verification of Alhagi Sparsifolia Shap.in Treating Sepsis Based on Network Pharmacology / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

Objective Network pharmacology and molecular docking and molecular dynamics techniques were used to investigate the mechanism of action of Alhagi sparsifolia Shap.in the treatment of sepsis and to perform animal experimental verification.Methods First,we screened the effective ingredients and their action targets of Alhagi sparsifolia Shap.,meanwhile,screened relevant action targets for the treatment of sepsis,constructed a protein interaction(PPI)network,and performed topology analysis to draw a TCM disease target network diagram.Second,Kyoto Encyclopedia of genes and genomes enrichment analysis was performed for core targets in the network diagram,along with gene ontology functional enrichment analysis.This was followed by molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation experiment validation of the core targets.Finally,mice were used for the verification of animal experiments.Results Thirty active components of Alhagi sparsifolia Shap.were screened out,and the top 5 ranked by degree value were quercetin,(-)-epigallocatechin,(-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate,genistein,kaempferol and epigallocatechin with 196 action targets;2144 disease-related targets for sepsis,105 targets for Alhagi sparsifolia Shap.-sepsis intersection,and the core targets were TNF,IL-6,AKT1,VEGFA,CASP3,IL-1β Et al.PI3K-Akt,TNF,HIF-1,AGE-RAGE,IL-17 and other signaling pathways are involved to mediate inflammatory responses,apoptosis and other biological processes to exert therapeutic effects on sepsis.Molecular docking results showed that camelina flavanoids bound equally well to each key target,among which the conformations with the lowest binding energy were(-)-Epigallocatechin Gallate-IL-6 and quercetin-IL-6.Molecular dynamics simulations were performed on the two pairs of complexes,and the results indicated that the stable binding could be achieved through a combination of electrostatic,van der Waals potential,and hydrogen bonding interactions.Animal experiments confirmed that Alhagi sparsifolia Shap.could inhibit the activation of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway,decrease the protein expression of Caspase-3,VEGF and reduced peripheral blood inflammatory factors secretion of TNF-α、IL-1βand IL-6,alleviating inflammatory injury in tissues and organs.Conclusion The therapeutic effect of Alhagi sparsifolia Shap.on sepsis is achieved through multi biological processes,multi targets,and multi pathways.It provides a certain theoretical basis for the clinical application of camel spines as well as sepsis treatment.

Effect of the inactivated new tuberculosis vaccine strain(B/R strain)on the immune memory of T lymphocytes in mice / 中国人兽共患病学报

To investigate the effect of inactivated new tu-berculosis vaccine strain(B/R strain)on immune memory of T lymphocytes in mice,C57BL/6 mice were immunized with PBS,BCG strain,B/R strain and inactivated B/R strain.At week 9,12 and 15 after immunization,the spleens of each group were taken,and the spleen lymphocytes were extracted.Half of the spleen lymphocytes in each group were directly de-tected,and the rest were cultured in vitro and stimulated with PPD according to the experimental design.Flow cytometry was used to detect the number of central memory T cells(TCM)and effector memory T cells(TEM)in spleen lymphocytes of uns-timulated and stimulated mice.Without PPD stimulation after immunization,the CD4+TCM(F=13.20,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=28.15,P＜0.05)induced by inactivated B/R group,B/R group and BCG group was higher than that of PBS group at week 9.The induced CD8+TCM(F=8.92,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=6.13,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 12,the CD4+TCM(F=15.97,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=13.60,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=5.52,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=20.15,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 15,the CD4+TCM(F=15.40,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=7.43,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=6.57,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=9.27,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 9,the CD4+TCM(F=9.66,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=11.20,P＜0.05)induced by inacti-vated B/R group,B/R group and BCG group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=7.24,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=9.30,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 12,the CD4+TCM(F=9.33,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=6.94,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM(F=67.71,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(F=10.86,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group.At week 15,the CD4+TCM(F=39.88,P＜0.05)and CD4+TEM(F=11.93,P＜0.05)induced by each group was higher than that of PBS group.The induced CD8+TCM and CD8+TEM(F=38.47,P＜0.05)was higher than that of PBS group(F=138.80,P＜0.05).It is worth noting that at week 15,the CD8+TCM(qinactivated B/R=12.24,qB/R=12.61,P＜0.05)and CD8+TEM(qinactivated B/R=7.19,qB/R=5.00,P＜0.05)induced by inactivated B/R group and B/R group were higher than those of BCG group.The immunizing mice with inactivated B/R strain,the ability of inducing immune memory of T lymphocytes in mice was equivalent to that of B/R strain.Heat-inacti-vation did not affect the ability of B/R strain to induce immune memory in mice.

TRPV4-induced Neurofilament Injury Contributes to Memory Impairment after High Intensity and Low Frequency Noise Exposures / 生物医学与环境科学（英文）

OBJECTIVE@#Exposure to high intensity, low frequency noise (HI-LFN) causes vibroacoustic disease (VAD), with memory deficit as a primary non-auditory symptomatic effect of VAD. However, the underlying mechanism of the memory deficit is unknown. This study aimed to characterize potential mechanisms involving morphological changes of neurons and nerve fibers in the hippocampus, after exposure to HI-LFN.@*METHODS@#Adult wild-type and transient receptor potential vanilloid subtype 4 knockout (TRPV4-/-) mice were used for construction of the HI-LFN injury model. The new object recognition task and the Morris water maze test were used to measure the memory of these animals. Hemoxylin and eosin and immunofluorescence staining were used to examine morphological changes of the hippocampus after exposure to HI-LFN.@*RESULTS@#The expression of TRPV4 was significantly upregulated in the hippocampus after HI-LFN exposure. Furthermore, memory deficits correlated with lower densities of neurons and neurofilament-positive nerve fibers in the cornu ammonis 1 (CA1) and dentate gyrus (DG) hippocampal areas in wild-type mice. However, TRPV4-/- mice showed better performance in memory tests and more integrated neurofilament-positive nerve fibers in the CA1 and DG areas after HI-LFN exposure.@*CONCLUSION@#TRPV4 up-regulation induced neurofilament positive nerve fiber injury in the hippocampus, which was a possible mechanism for memory impairment and cognitive decline resulting from HI-LFN exposure. Together, these results identified a promising therapeutic target for treating cognitive dysfunction in VAD patients.

On this basis, an HPLC method was established to compare the content differences of the main components, including casticin, agnuside, homoorientin, and p-hydroxybenzoic acid. The analysis was performed on the chromatographic column(Waters Symmetry C_(18)) with a gradient mobile phase of acetonitrile(A)-0.05% phosphoric acid solution(B) at the flow rate of 1 mL·min~(-1) and detection wavelength of 258 nm. The column temperature was 30 ℃ and the injection volume was 10 μL. The HPLC fingerprint of 24 batches of Viticis Fructus samples was established with 21 common peaks, and nine peaks were identified. Similarity analysis was carried out based on chromatographic data of 24 batches of chromatographic data of Viticis Fructus, and the results showed that except for DYMJ-16, the similarity of Vitex trifolia var. simplicifolia was ≥0.900, while that of V. trifolia was ≤0.864. In addition, the similarity analysis of two different species showed that the similarity of 16 batches of V. trifolia var. simplicifolia was 0.894-0.997 and that of the eight batches of V. trifolia was between 0.990 and 0.997. The results showed that the similarity of fingerprints of these two species was different, but the similarity between the same species was good. The results of the three multivariate statistical analyses were consistent, which could distinguish the two different species. The VIP analysis results of PLS-DA showed that casticin and agnuside contributed the most to the distinction. The content determination results showed that there was no significant difference in the content of homoorientin and p-hydroxybenzoic acid in Viticis Fructus from different species, but the content of casticin and agnuside was significantly different in different species(P<0.01). The content of casticin was higher in V. trifolia var. simplicifolia, while agnuside was higher in V. trifolia. The findings of this study show that there are differences in fingerprint similarity and component content of Viticis Fructus from different species, which can provide references for the in-depth study of the quality and clinical application of Viticis Fructus.

Analysis on migration of HIV/AIDS cases and related factors in Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan province, 2020 / 中华流行病学杂志

Objective: To analyze the migration of the HIV/AIDS cases and related factors in Liangshan Yi autonomous prefecture (Liangshan). Methods: According to HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Response Information Management System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention, a total of 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases who had follow-up records in Liangshan in 2020 were included in the survey. The migration of the HIV/AIDS cases was described and the related factors were analyzed using multiple logistic regression models, and the migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases were mapped. Results: Among the 28 772 HIV/AIDS cases, 20.89% (6 010/28 772) had migration in 2020. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that among the HIV/AIDS cases, the migration related factors included being aged 15-24 years (compared with being aged 0-14 years, OR=2.74, 95%CI:2.04-3.69) and ethnic group (compared with Han ethnic group, OR=2.44, 95%CI:2.19-2.72), having education level of junior high school (compared with having education level of primary school or below, OR=1.25, 95%CI:1.14-1.38), being unmarried (compared with being married, OR=1.29, 95%CI:1.20-1.39), being engaged in business services (compared with being engaged in farming, OR=1.96, 95%CI:1.31-2.92), receiving antiviral treatment <1 year (compared with receiving antiviral treatment >3 years, OR=1.42, 95%CI:1.26-1.61), having recent CD4+T lymphocytes (CD4) counts >500 cells/μl (compared with having recent CD4 counts <200 cells/μl, OR=1.15, 95%CI:1.03-1.29). The geographical distribution maps showed that among all cities in Sichuan, Xichang (13.26%, 797/6 010) and Chengdu (10.12%,608/6 010) were the main migration destinations of the HIV/AIDS cases, and the provinces outside Sichuan where the HIV/AIDS cases would like to migrate to were mainly Guangdong (18.19%, 1 093/6 010) and Zhejiang provinces (7.67%, 461/6 010) in 2020. The HIV/AIDS cases who migrated where Liangshan, within Sichuan province, and to other provinces accounted for 27.67% (1 663/6 010), 15.34% (922/6 010) and 56.99% (3 425/6 010), respectively. Conclusions: More attention should be paid to the mobility characteristics and the classification management of HIV/AIDS cases according to their characteristics in Liangshan. Timely access to information on changes in the place of work and residence of HIV/AIDS cases should be warranted when they have migration. Good referrals and management for mobility of HIV/AIDS cases in different places should be made to reduce loss to follow-up and improving interventions.
