RESUMEN
ABSTRACT Introduction: Atrial fibrillation is one of the common complications of mitral valve disease. Currently, in the absence of freezing equipment, it's still impossible to fully conduct a minimally invasive Cox-maze IV procedure to treat atrial fibrillation. Methods: We analyzed the clinical data of 28 patients who underwent thoracoscopic minimally invasive mitral valve full maze surgery in our hospital from October 2021 to September 2022; 13 patients were male and 15 were female, three suffered from paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, and 25 suffered from permanent atrial fibrillation; average age was 61.88±8.30 years, and mean preoperative left atrial diameter was 47.12±8.34 mm. Isolation of left atrial posterior wall (box lesion) was completed in all patients by cut-and-sew technique and bipolar clamp ablation. Results: For these subjects, the median cardiopulmonary bypass time was 169 (109.75-202.75) minutes, aortic cross-clamping time was 106 (77.75-125.50) minutes, and ventilator assistance time was 6.5 (0-10) hours. Among them, eight subjects had the endotracheal tubes removed immediately after surgical operation. Three subjects were in the blanking period; two subjects still had atrial fibrillation at three months after operation, one of whom resumed sinus rhythm after electrical cardioversion therapy; and all the remaining 23 subjects had sinus rhythm. Conclusion: The minimally invasive cut-and-sew technique for electrical isolation of left pulmonary veins can improve sinus conversion rate of patients suffering from both mitral valve disease and atrial fibrillation. In selected subjects, it is safe and has good results in the short-term postoperative period.

Accumulating investigations illustrated that miRNA acts as a key regulator in tumor progression, whereas regulatory role of miR-96-5p in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is warranted. Thus, we sought to probe mechanism of miR-96-5p in this disease. Through bioinformatics analysis, miR-96-5p level in normal tissue and LUAD tissue in TCGA database were obtained. Meanwhile, mRNA expression dataset was analyzed to obtain downregulated mRNAs binding to miR-96-5p. qRT-PCR assessed miR-96-5p and ARHGAP6 mRNA in LUAD. Western blot assessed protein level of ARHGAP6 in LUAD. Dual-luciferase reporter gene detection verified targeting relationship of miR-96-5p and ARHGAP6. Biological functional experiments such as CCK-8, colony formation, scratch healing, and Transwell assessed cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. MiR-96-5p was overexpressed, which fostered LUAD cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. ARHGAP6 was downregulated in LUAD and targeted by miR-96-5p. ARHGAP6 upregulation prominently restored promotion of miR-96-5p on cell progression. MiR-96-5p could stimulate LUAD progression through targeting ARHGAP6. This study generates a novel direction and lays a theoretical basis for targeted therapy.
