RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the spatial distribution pattern of local tumor progression (LTP) for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ≤5 cm after microwave ablation. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on 169 HCCs with matched MRI before and after ablation from December 2009 to December 2019. A tumor MRI was reconstructed using three-dimensional visualization technology. LTP was classified as contact or non-contact, early or late stage, according to whether LTP was in contact with the edge of the ablation zone and the occurrence time (24 months). The tumor-surrounded area was divided into eight quadrants by using the eight-quadrant map method. An analysis was conducted on the spatial correlation between the quadrant where the ablative margin (AM) safety boundary was located and the quadrant where different types of LTP occurred. The t-test, or rank-sum test, was used for the measurement data. 2-test for count data was used to compare the difference between the two groups. Results: The AM quadrant had a distribution of 54.4% LTP, 64.2% early LTP stage, and 69.1% contact LTP, suggesting this quadrant was much more concentrated than the other quadrants (P < 0.001). Additionally, the AM quadrant had only 15.2% of non-contact type LTP and 17.1% of late LTP, which was not significantly different from the average distribution probability of 12.5% (100/8%) among the eight quadrants (P = 0.667, 0.743). 46.6% of early contact type LTP was located at the ablation needle tip, 25.2% at the body, and 28.1% at the caudal, while the location distribution probabilities of non-early contact LTP were 34.8%, 31.8%, and 33.3%, respectively. Conclusion: LTP mostly occurs in areas where the ablation safety boundary is the shortest. However, non-contact LTP and late LTP stages exhibit the feature of uniform distribution. Thus, this type of LPT may result from an inadequate non-ablation safety boundary.

RESUMEN

Objective: To evaluate the long-term efficacy of percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) therapy for hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods: 2054 cases with Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer (BCLC) stage 0~B at the Fifth Medical Center of the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital from January 2006 to September 2020 were retrospectively collected. All patients were followed up for at least 2 years. The primary endpoint of overall survival and secondary endpoints (tumor-related survival, disease-free survival, and postoperative complications) of patients treated with ultrasound-guided percutaneous MWA were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used for stratified survival rate analysis. Fine-and-Gray competing risk model was used to analyze overall survival. Results: A total of 5 503 HCC nodules [mean tumor diameter (2.6±1.6) cm] underwent 3 908 MWAs between January 2006 and September 2020, with a median follow-up time of 45.6 (24.0 -79.2) months.The technical effectiveness rate of 5 375 tumor nodules was 97.5%. The overall survival rates at 5, 10, and 15-years were 61.6%, 38.8%, and 27.0%, respectively. The tumor-specific survival rates were 67.1%, 47.2%, and 37.7%, respectively. The free tumor survival rates were 25.8%, 15.7%, and 9.9%, respectively. The incidence rate of severe complications was 2.8% (108/3 908). Further analysis showed that the technical effectiveness and survival rate over the passing three time periods from January 2006-2010, 2011-2015, and 2016-September 2020 were significantly increased, with P < 0.001, especially for liver cancer 3.1~5.0 cm (P < 0.001). Conclusion: Microwave ablation therapy is a safe and effective method for BCLC stage 0-B, with significantly enhanced technical efficacy and survival rate over time.

RESUMEN

Objective: To explore the evaluation effect of ultrasonography and Pirani score on tarsal deformity, treatment effect and pseudo-correction of congenital clubfoot in infants and young children, and the correlation between the two methods. Methods: This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 26 children (40 feet) with congenital clubfoot who were evaluated by ultrasonography in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2020 to January 2023 were retrospectively collected. There were 16 males and 10 females. The age at the first ultrasound examination was (M(IQR)) 9.0 (18.0) days (range: 1 to 46 days). All patients were treated with Ponseti method by the same physician. The Pirani scores before and after treatment and at the last examination, and the talonavicular angle, calcaneocuboid angle and tibiocalcaneal angle measured by ultrasound were collected, and the treatment and follow-up were recorded. Paired sample t test, repeated measures analysis of variance or Kruskal-Wallis test were used for data comparison, and Spearman correlation analysis was used for correlation analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to calculate the efficacy of ultrasound in evaluating different Pirani scores. Results: The number of plaster fixation in 26 children was 4.0 (1.0) times (range: 2 to 8 times). The medial talonavicular angle and posterior tibiocalcaneal angle were significantly improved after treatment and at the last follow-up compared with those before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). There was no difference in lateral calcaneocuboid angle before and after treatment and at the last follow-up (F=1.971, P>0.05). Pseudo-correction occurred in 2 cases (2 feet) during the treatment, with an incidence of 5%. Correlation analysis showed that there was a moderate positive correlation between talonavicular angle and Pirani midfoot score (r=0.480, P<0.01). There was no correlation between calcaneocuboid angle and Pirani midfoot score (r=0.114, P=0.105). There was a moderate negative correlation between tibial heel angle and Pirani hindfoot score (r=-0.566, P<0.01). The cut-off point of Pirani midfoot score of 1.5 was 38.78°, the sensitivity was 0.90, the specificity was 0.56, and the area under the curve was 0.75. The cut-off value of angle was 27.51 °, the sensitivity was 0.16, the specificity was 0.92, and the area under the curve was 0.44.The cut-off points of Pirani midfoot score of 3.0 were 45.08°and 9.96°, the sensitivity was 0.94 and 0.91, the specificity was 0.37 and 0.42, and the area under the curve was 0.59 and 0.62, respectively. The cut-off values of Pirani hindfoot score of 2.0 and 3.0 were 167.46° and 160.15°, respectively. The sensitivity was 0.75 and 0.67, the specificity was 0.81 and 0.83, and the area under the curve was 0.78 and 0.71, respectively. Conclusion: Ultrasound can complement with Pirani score, visually and dynamically observe the morphology and position changes of talonavicular joint, calcaneocuboid joint and tibiotalocalcaneal joint, monitor the recovery and pseudo-correction of tarsal bones, and better evaluate the therapeutic effect.

RESUMEN

Objectives: To examine the short-term and mid-term effects of surgical treatment of obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in one center. Methods: The perioperative data and short-term follow-up outcomes of 421 patients with obstructive HCM who received surgical treatment at Department of Cardiac Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from January 2017 to December 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 207 males and 214 females, aged (56.5±11.7) years (range: 19 to 78 years). Preoperative New York Heart Association (NYHA) classification included 45 cases of class Ⅱ, 328 cases in class Ⅲ, and 48 cases in class Ⅳ. Fifty-eight patients were diagnosed with latent obstructive HCM and 257 patients had moderate or more mitral regurgitation with 56 patients suffering from intrinsic mitral valve diseases. All procedures were completed by a multidisciplinary team, including professional echocardiologists involving in preoperative planning for proper mitral valve management strategies and intraoperative monitoring. A total of 338 patients underwent septal myectomy alone, and 59 patients underwent mitral valve surgery along with myectomy. A single transaortic approach was used in 355 patients, and a right atrial-atrial septal/atrial sulcus approach was used in 51 other patients. Long-handled minimally invasive surgical instruments were used for the procedures. Student t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, χ2 test or Fisher exact test were used to compare the data before and after surgery. Results: The aortic cross-clamping time of septal myectomy alone was (34.3±8.5) minutes (range: 21 to 94 minutes). Eighteen patients had intraoperative adverse events and underwent immediate reoperation, including residual obstruction (10 patients), left ventricular free wall rupture (4 patients), ventricular septal perforation (3 patients), and aortic valve perforation (1 patient). Four patients died during hospitalization, and 11 patients developed complete atrioventricular block requiring permanent pacemaker implantation. After discharge, 384 (92.1%) patients received a follow-up visit with a median duration of 9 months. All follow-up patients survived with significantly improved NYHA classifications: 216 patients in class Ⅰ and 168 patients in class Ⅱ (χ2=662.73, P<0.01 as compared to baseline). At 6 months after surgery, follow-up echocardiography showed that the thickness of the ventricular septum ((13.6±2.5) mm vs. (18.2±3.0) mm, t=23.51, P<0.01) and the peak left ventricular outflow tract gradient ((12.0±6.3) mmHg vs. (93.4±19.8) mmHg, 1 mmHg=0.133 kPa, t=78.29, P<0.01) were both significantly lower than baseline values. Conclusion: The construction of the surgical team (including echocardiography experts), proper mitral valve management strategies, identification and management of sub-mitral-valve abnormalities, and application of long-handled minimally invasive surgical instruments are important for the successful implementation of septal myectomy with satisfactory short-and medium-term outcomes.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: To compare the efficacy of endovascular treatment for iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) with or without acute deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity. METHODS: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 300 IVCS patients, who received endovascular treatment between January 2013 and December 2017. According to whether IVCS was complicated by deep venous thrombosis or not, these patients were divided into non-thrombotic iliac vein lesion group (NIVL group, n = 127) and post-thrombotic iliac vein lesion group (PIVL group, n = 173). After endovascular treatment, all patients were followed up to assess the symptoms improvement and to evaluate the patency of iliac vein. RESULTS: The technical success rate was 98% (294/300), and percutaneous transluminal angioplasty with stenting was adopted in 294 cases. The incidence of perioperative complications was 36.33% (109/300), but no severe complications occurred. During a mean follow-up of 22.3 months (range 6-30 months), 9(6.82%, 9/132) patients in PIVL group had recurrence of deep venous thrombosis, but nobody had deep venous thrombosis and varicose veins recurrence in NIVL group. The effective rate of endovascular treatment in NIVL group and PIVL group was 96.88% and 90.15% (P = 0.050), while the cumulative primary patency of iliac vein in NIVL group was significantly higher than that in PIVL group (P = 0.008). CONCLUSIONS: The endovascular treatment is an effective, feasible, safe method for treating IVCS. There is no difference in the efficacy of IVCS patients with or without deep venous thrombosis, but the medium and long-term patency of patients with deep venous thrombosis is lower than that in patients without deep venous thrombosis.

RESUMEN

This study aimed to explore the application value of new biological specimen oral fluid in SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid and antibody detection. Oral fluid and paired respiratory and blood specimens from 7 confirmed cases of two COVID-19 cluster epidemic were collected in Beijing from October to November 2021. SARS-CoV-2 virus and IgG antibody were detected by real time PCR kits and serum antibody detection reagents, and SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody in oral fluids was detected by a new established method of magnetic particle chemiluminescence. The results showed that the nucleic acid amplification test of SARS-CoV-2 on nasopharyngeal swabs, throat swabs and oral fluid specimens from 3 confirmed cases of COVID-19 was positive, among which the Ct value for ORF1a/b and N gene of oral fluid samples in 2 cases was close to that of throat swab, and the Ct value of oral fluid sample for 1 case was higher than that of throat swab. The complete genome sequence of one oral fluid specimen was obtained, which belonged to the VOC/Delta variant strain. The SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies of the paired oral fluid and serum were all positive, and the S/CO values of oral fluid were all lower than those of serum. The series of oral fluid results showed that SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody level increased from 11 to 32 days after the onset of the disease.

RESUMEN

Objective: Cluster classification based on m6A methylation regulators and construct prognostic evaluation model. Methods: Utilizing consensus cluster to classify the liver cancer samples form TCGA based on the expression of 13 m6A methylation regulators, and verify the function and prognostic significance of the clustered subtypes. Marker genes were further screened to construct a risk prediction model for evaluating the prognosis of liver cancer patients. Results: The two clustered subtypes based on m6A methylation regulators showed significant differences in the prognosis value of liver cancer patients (P=0.048), and 38 prognostic markers related to m6A methylation in liver cancer were screened from the subgroup with poor prognosis. Two m6A regulatory genes, YTHDF1 and YTHDF2, are proved with adverse prognosis by univariate cox analysis (P<0.05, Hazard ratio>1). We used Lasso regression method to build risk assessment model and effectively predicted the prognosis status of liver cancer patients within 4 years (4-year AUC=0.685, 3-year AUC=0.669). Moreover, the assessment model was validated in another dataset of Asia liver cancer patients. Conclusion: The study provided ideas for studying m6A methylation in liver cancer, and the risk prediction model can be used to evaluate the short-term prognosis of liver cancer patients.

RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the high-frequency hearing loss (HFHL) of workers in an automobile factory and its influencing factors, so as to provide a scientific basis for occupational health management of noise workers. Methods: From March to July 2019, 2647 workers from an automobile factory were selected as the research objects by cluster sampling method. The basic personal information (such as gender, age, education level, height, weight, etc.) , history of ear disease, the history of detonation, history of exposure to ototoxic drugs, history of exposure to occupational noise, etc., were investigated by questionnaire and occupational health examination. Chi-square test was used to compare the detection rates of HFHL in different populations, and multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of HFHL. Results: The noise level of 2647 individual workers ranged from 75.0 dB (A) to 92.0 dB (A) , with an average of (84.14±2.47) dB (A) . The detection rate of HFHL was 17.2% (456/2647) . There were significant differences in the the detection rate of HFHL among workers of different gender, age, educational level, working age, noise exposure level, diabetes history, detonation history, smoking and drinking workers (P<0.05) . Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male, age ≥30 years old, smoking and noise exposure were risk factors for HFHL (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The detection rate of HFHL in automobile factory workers is high. Gender, age, smoking and noise are the influencing factors of HFHL. It is necessary to strengthen the noise control in the workplace and guide workers to choose healthy lifestyle.

RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the effect of maslinic acid (MA) on isoproterenol (ISO)-induced myocardial fibrosis in mice. Methods: ISO was used to induce myocardial fibrosis in adult male C57BL/6 mice, and MA was administered for two weeks to detect the effects of MA on cardiac function and fibrosis. Molecular changes of fibrosis markers and signaling pathways were detected by RT-PCR and western blotting. Phosphate buffer saline (PBS), PBS+SB203580 (p38 MAPK inhibitor), PBS+MA, ISO, ISO+SB203580, ISO+MA were added to the primary cultured rat fibroblasts. Cells were collected after 48 h for subsequent detection. Results: In this study, the mouse model of myocardial fibrosis was successfully established. The left ventricular faction shortening (FS) and maximum rate of rise and maximum rate of fall of pressure in left ventricular chamber (±dp/dt) of the ISO+MA group were significantly higher than those of the ISO group ((35.1±1.8)% vs (28.5±2.6)%, (7 256±153) mmHg/s vs (6 402±240) mmHg/s, (7 156±163) mmHg/s vs (6 319±219) mmHg/s, all P<0.05). The levels of interstitial and perivascular collagen deposition in the ISO+MA group were higher than those in the ISO group (P<0.05), the relative mRNA levels of COL-1, COL-3 and TGF-ß in the ISO+MA group were significantly lower than those in the ISO group, with the relative expression levels of 1.70±0.24 vs 3.69±0.34, 1.72±0.56 vs 4.84±0.82, 1.52±0.19 vs 2.64±0.29, respectively (all P<0.05). The phosphorylation levels of p38 MAPK, Smad3 and protein expression level of TGF-ß1 in ISO+MA group were lower than those in ISO group (relative expression levels were 1.67±0.35 vs 2.61±0.58, 1.68±0.23 vs 2.52±0.19,1.56±0.15 vs 2.48±0.26, respectively, all P<0.05). The results of in vitro cell experiments showed that the mRNA levels of COL-1, COL-3 and TGF-ß in the SB203580 and MA groups were significantly lower than those in the ISO group (relative expression levels were 2.25±0.51, 2.16±0.48 vs 5.29±1.21; 1.58±0.34, 1.69±0.29 vs 4.97±1.32; 1.41±0.31, 1.55±0.38 vs 3.53±0.56, respectively, all P<0.05). The phosphorylation levels of p38 MAPK and Smad3 in the SB203580 MA groups was significantly lower than those in the ISO group, and the protein expression level of TGF-ß1 was lower than that in the ISO group (1.81±0.18, 1.77±0.16 vs 2.56±0.32; 1.85±0.21, 1.81±0.17 vs 2.48±0.37; 1.84±0.24, 1.72±0.17 vs 2.52±0.29, all P<0.05). Conclusion: Maslinic acid can inhibit the phosphorylation of p38 MAPK, thereby preventing the canonical TGF-ß1/Smads fibrosis signaling pathway to achieve an anti-fibrosis role.

RESUMEN

Objective: To explore the feasibility of Ponseti method in treatment of secondary clubfoot in young children with Tethered Cord Syndrome(TCS). Methods: The clinical data of 53 young children with clubfeet treated with Ponseti method from March 2014 to March 2017 at Department of Pediatric Orthopedics, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were analyzed retrospectively. These patients were divided into TCS group and Idiopathic group according to the etiology. There were 19 patients (33 feet) in TCS group,with an mean age of 2.8 months(range:0.2 to 24.0 months), including 13 males and 6 females, 5 patients with unilateral clubfeet and 14 patients with bilateral clubfeet. There were 34 patients (45 feet) in idiopathic group, with an mean age of 3.1 months(range: 0.1 to 21.0 months), including 18 males and 16 females, 23 patients with unilateral clubfeet and 11 patients with bilateral clubfeet. All the children received casts correction according to Ponseti method, and were followed up at 3 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and every 6 months after the Achilles tendon tenotomy or the last cast correction. Complications were recorded and therapeutic effect was evaluated of these children by Dimeglio Scoring System and the International Clubfoot Study Group (ICFSG) at the last follow-up. Independent t test, Mann-Witney U test or χ(2) test were used to compare the indicators of the two groups. Results: The number of plaster fixation in TCS group was (6.1±2.0) times, and that of idiopathic group was (4.8±1.0) times(t=3.482, P<0.01).In TCS group, 22 feet treated with Achilles tendon transection and that of idiopathic group was 40 feet(χ(2)=0.279, P=0.598). There were 18 cases recurrence in TCS group and 8 cases in Idiopathic group (t=11.149, P<0.01). In TCS group, 16 cases (27 feet) completed the initial correction, the success rate was 60.6% (27/33), 3 cases (6 feet) could not correct the deformity after 9 to 10 times of plaster fixation, and then underwent soft tissue release.In idiopathic group, 34 cases (45 feet) achieved initial correction after Ponseti treatment(χ(2)=6.488, P=0.011).At the last follow up, there were 5 cases (9 feet) in TCS group and 2 cases (2 feet) in idiopathic group underwent soft tissue release(χ(2)=6.110, P=0.013). The classification grade of ICFSG score of the two groups without soft tissue release were (2.1±0.6) and (1.8±0.7), the difference was not statistically significant (t=1.765, P=0.082). All the children had no skin ulceration, bedsores, skin allergy and other complications. Conclusion: Ponseti method is effective in the treatment of clubfoot secondary to TCS, and the functional recovery is similar to that of children with idiopathic clubfoot.

RESUMEN

Objective: To explore the effect of alcohol drinking on sputum culture conversion at the end of second month and outcome of smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) patients. Methods: Total 2 067 patients aged 18 years and above diagnosed and treated from 2008 to 2011 in 49 TB institutions from 8 provinces, antonomous regions and municipalities were enrolled, according to tuberculosis situation and regional distribution in China. Those patients were divided into three groups according to alcohol drinking, including never alcohol drinker group, ever-alcohol drinker group and current alcohol drinker group, respectively. Chi-square test was used to compare the following variables among the three groups: adverse action, lesions absorption, cavity size, sputum-culture results at the end of the 2(nd) month of treatment, and treatment outcome. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to explore that whether alcohol drinking was risk factor of poor treatment effect. Results: Among the 2 067 smear-positive PTB patients, never drinkers, ex-drinkers and current drinkers account for 55.2% (1 140/2 067), 36.5% (755/2 067), 8.3% (172/2 067), respectively. Among patients of never drinkers, ex-drinkers and current drinkers groups, sputum-culture conversion rate at the end of the 2(nd) month of treatment were 86.1%, 81.3% and 83.0%, respectively (χ(2)=6.782, P=0.033); the difference in treatment outcome was significant (χ(2)=13.620, P=0.034). Treatment success rate were 83.9%, 81.1% and 79.7%, respectively; failure rate was 6.4%, 10.3% and 9.9%, respectively, and fatality rate were 2.1%, 2.3% and 4.1%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that non-sputum conversion of the end of 2(nd) month and fatality rate of ex-drinkers were 1.431 and 1.668 times higher than never drinkers, respectively; non-sputum conversion of the end of 2(nd) month of current drinkers was 1.256 times higher than never drinkers. Conclusion: Alcohol drinking affects the treatment effectiveness of tuberculosis, which increased risk of culture-positive rate of the end of 2(nd) month and fatality rate.

Methods: Retrospective analysis of 47 patients (60 syndactyly toes) who underwent double-wing flap to reconstruct toe web space in orthopedics department of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2010 to October 2017.There were 21 males and 26 females, with an average age of 18.9 months (range: 10-48 months). All patients were treated with zigzag incisions to separate the toe syndactylys without skin grafts.The condition of wound healing and appearance of toes were observed. Results: The average follow-up time was 62.3 months (range: 6 to 80 months). There were no complications such as hematoma, infection, flap necrosis and no flexion contracture and obvious scar hyperplasia in all the 47 cases, 4 of the 60 webs developed web creep.All webs had good appearance with 45 degrees inclination from the dorsal to the metatarsal side and had good flexion and abduction function. Conclusions: The double-wing flap is a simple and safe operation for toe syndactyly which has a good clinical effect.

RESUMEN

Objective: To investigate the clinical effect of ultraselective transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) originating from the caudate lobe. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed for 13 patients with solitary HCC originating from the caudate lobe who were admitted to Department of Interventional Radiology in PLA General Hospital from March 2013 to December 2016. A 2.6-F microcatheter was used to perform ultraselective TACE, and the embolization material was ultra-liquefied iodinated oil. The number of tumor-feeding arteries, success rate and short-term efficacy of ultraselective technique, and long-term survival were evaluated after surgery. Results: Of all patients, 8 (61.5%) had a single tumor-feeding artery and 5 (38.5%) had multiple tumor-feeding arteries. The success rate of ultraselective technique was 84.6% (11/13). The complete remission rate at 1 month after ultraselective TACE was 63.6% (7/11). During the follow-up period after the expiration date, 10 out of 11 patients who underwent successful ultraselective TACE survived, and one out of two patients who underwent failed ultraselective TACE survived. Conclusion: Ultraselective TACE has good feasibility, clinical effect, and safety in the treatment of HCC originating from the caudate lobe, with an important clinical significance in the prognosis of such disease.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prognostic significance of serum GGT in patients with hepatitis C virus-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCV-HCC) treated with transcatheeter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). METHODS: The clinicopathological data of 110 patients with hepatitis C virus-related stage B hepatocellular carcinoma, who received TACE treatment from January 2008 to May 2011, were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups: the normal GCT group (GGT<50 U/L, 41 cases) and high GCT group (GGT≥50 U/L, 69 cases). The Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the survival rates, log-rank test was used for univariate analysis, and Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis. The factors affecting survival and prognosis of the patients were analyzed. RESULTS: The pretreatment GGT level was (160.0±120.2) U/L in the high GGT group and (40.1±8.5) U/L in the normal GGT group (P<0.001). After TACE treatment, the 1-, 2- and 3-year survival rates were 90.2%, 45.9% and 24.6% in the high GGT group, and 90.2%, 75.6% and 58.5%, respectively, in the normal GGT group (P=0.002). The univariate analysis showed that the pretreatment GGT level, ECOG score, α-fetoprotein, tumor size, tumor number, and Child grade are factors affecting the prognosis of HCV-related hepatocellular carcinoma patients (P<0.05 for all). The Cox multivariate survival analysis revealed that the tumor size, tumor number, Child grade, and serum GGT level are independent prognostic factors for patients with stage B HCV-related hepatocellular carcinoma. CONCLUSION: The level of serum GGT before TACE is an independent prognostic factor for patients with stage B HCV-related hepatocellular carcinoma.

RESUMEN

Objective: To improve the clinical recognition of infective endocarditis (IE) and septic pulmonary embolism (SPE) in patients with extensive burns. Methods: A case of large area burn complicated with IE and SPE confirmed by blood cultures and echocardiography was described. A literature review was performed with "burn" and "infective endocarditis" as the Chinese key words in Wanfang database; with "burn" and "infective endocarditis" as Mesh terms in PubMed. Results: The patient was a 37-year-old male with large area burn, who presented with fever and hemoptysis. Blood cultures were positive for methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Echocardiography disclosed vegetations located in the tricuspid valve. Multiple wedge-shaped lesions were found on chest CT. From January 1978 to December 2015, 26 related articles were retrieved and 134 burned patients complicated with endocarditis were reported, of which, 97 cases were IE and 1 case with SPE. Of the 134 cases, 120 cases were dead, 12 cases cured and 2 cases unknown. The mortality was 89.6%. Conclusions: There was a high mortality of burned patients complicated with IE. SPE should be considered for patients with multiple peripheral nodules in both lungs and a positive blood culture. Combination and prolonged anti-infective therapy may increase the treatment success and reduce the risk of recurrence.

RESUMEN

The treatment of obese patients is a topic investigated by an increasing number of researchers. This study aimed to elucidate the possible inhibitory effect of tangeritin on the development and function of fat cells. 3T3-L1 fat cells were grown to confluence and subjected to different concentrations of tangeritin. The most effective tangeritin inhibition concentration was determined by the MTT assay. The treated cells were subjected to real-time reverse transcriptase PCR and western blot analysis, to detect changes in the CCAAT/enhancer binding protein (C/EBP)α, C/EBPß, and peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR)γ expression levels. The MTT assay revealed that the fat cell growth was inhibited at a 20 ng/mL concentration of tangeritin. The results of real-time PCR revealed a significant decrease in the expression of C/EBPα, C/EBPß, and PPARγ mRNA, following the treatment with tangeritin. Western blot analysis also presented similar results at a protein level. Therefore, we concluded that tangeritin inhibits adipogenesis via the down-regulation of C/EBPα, C/EBPß, and PPARγ mRNA and protein expression in 3T3-L1 cells.

RESUMEN

To explore the role of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) tissue inhibitor in the mechanisms of kidney aging, we observed the effects of sense and antisense transfection of TIMP-1 and of metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibitors on phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and Flk-1 expression in TIMP-1 transgenic human proximal tubular epithelial cells (HKCs). Transfected HKCs were co-incubated with 100 µM MMP-2 and MMP-9 inhibitor III for 24 h to affect enzyme inhibition. TIMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-9, PTEN, VEGF, and Flk-1 mRNA expression was detected by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. PTEN, VEGF, and Flk-1 protein expression in cells of each experimental group was measured by indirect immunofluorescence. We found that PTEN expression was up-regulated (P < 0.05) in the sense TIMP-1-transfected group (P < 0.05) compared with the non-transfected and empty vector groups, and that expression of VEGF and Flk-1 was down-regulated (P < 0.05). In contrast, the antisense TIMP-1 transgenic group showed the opposite results (P < 0.05). No significant differences in expression of PTEN, VEGF, or Flk-1 were observed among the MMP- 2/MMP-9 inhibitor III, non-transfected, and empty vector groups (P > 0.05). These results suggest that in the progression of renal aging, high expression of TIMP-1 up-regulates PTEN expression through an MMP-independent pathway, and subsequently down-regulates the expression of VEGF and Flk-1, indicating that PTEN and TIMP-1 are involved in the aging-associated impairment of renal angiogenesis. Our study provides a theoretical basis for further exploration of the mechanism underlying TIMP- 1 participation in renal aging progression.

RESUMEN

We report a long-time working femtosecond laser using metal-free sapphire-based graphene as a saturable absorber (SA). The sapphire-based graphene yielded excellent nonlinear saturable absorption properties and was demonstrated to be suitable as an SA for an ultrafast solid-state laser. Stable mode-locked pulses of 325 fs were obtained at a central wavelength of 1032 nm with a repetition rate of 66.3 MHz. At pump power of 8.23 W the average output power was 1.78 W and the highest pulse energy reached 26.8 nJ with a peak power of 72.6 kW. Our work opens up a facile route for making reliable graphene SA in the mode-locking technique and also displays an exciting prospect in making low-cost and ultrafast lasers.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Renal vascular injury may be secondary to blunt or penetrating trauma, iatrogenic injuries or spontaneously with or without underlying pathology. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of transarterial embolization (TAE) for the treatment of iatrogenic renovascular injuries (IRVIs). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty-six patients (27 males, 9 females, aged 14-79 years) with IRVIs were treated with TAE. Preprocedure computed tomography (CT) and/or ultrasound (US) and/or digital subtraction angiography (DSA) confirmed the presence of IRVIs in all 36 patients. The embolic materials include metallic coils, polyvinyl alcohol particles (PVA), gelfoam and n-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) iodized oil mixture were used. The results of the embolization procedure were recorded. Patients were followed up, and complications of the procedure were noted. RESULTS: A total of 40 embolization procedures were performed in 36 patients, and technical success was achieved in all procedures. Medical successes were achieved in 32 (89%) patients. Postembolization syndrome (back pain and fever) were detected in 12 patients (22%). Perirenal abscess was seen in one patient (3%). Puncture-site bleeding, nontarget embolization, decrease in renal function, and arterial hypertension were not detected in any of the patients. CONCLUSIONS: TAE is an effective, minimally invasive treatment method for IRVIs. Therefore, TAE should be the first preferred treatment modality.

RESUMEN

Cancer is a complex disease with interactions between normal and neoplastic cells. Since current therapies for cancer largely rely on drugs or radiation that kill dividing cells or block cell division, these treatments may have severe side effects on normal proliferating cells in patients with cancer. Recently, immunotherapeutic approaches for cancer therapy, by which monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) target tumor specific antigens, have shown great potential. Glycoprotein non-metastatic melanoma protein B(Gpnmb)/Osteoactivin (OA) is a transmembrane glycoprotein highly expressed in various types of cancer. Gpnmb/OA promotes the migration, invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. CR 011-vcMMAE is a Mab-drug conjugate being developed for the treatment of Gpnmb/OA-expressing cancers. Gpnmb/OA represents an attractive target in cancer immunotherapy and CR011-vcMMAE holds promise as a reagent in targeted therapy for Gpnmb/OA-expressing malignancies.
