Objective@#To study the expression of long non-coding RNA LINC01152 in glioma and its influence on the malignant biological behavior of glioma cells．@*Methods@#LINC01152 expression in glioma was analyzed by LncSpA V2．0 and GEPIA database．qRT-PCR was applied to detect the expression of LINC01152 mRNA in 10 samples of human normal brain tissues，40 samples of glioma tissues and 5 glioma cell lines．GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of LINC01152 co-expressed genes were performed using the DAVID database to predict the related functions． The AnoLnc2，TargetScan，LinkedOmics and miRDB databases were used to predict the LINC01152 related miRNAs and target genes to construct a ceRNA regulatory network．LINC01152 expression was knocked down in glioma cell lines by small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection．The CCK-8 test，scratch healing experiments，Transwell，flow cytometry and Western blot experiments were used to measure the influence of LINC01152 on the proliferation，migra- tion，invasion and apoptosis of glioma cells. @*Results @#Database analysis showed that compared with other tumor types，LINC01152 was highly expressed in glioblastoma (GBM) and low grade glioma (LGG) ，and was higher than normal brain tissue．qRT-PCR showed that the expression of LINC01152 mRNA in glioma tissues was significantly higher than that in normal brain tissues (P＜0. 01)．The expression of LINC01152 was correlated with Ki-67 (P < 0. 05) ，but not with clinical parameters such as gender，age，tumor size，P53 protein，glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) ，O-6-methylguanine-DNAmethyltransferase ( MGMT) and WHO grade of glioma patients． Functional enrichment analysis of co-expressed genes indicated that the LINC01152 was mainly involved in biological processes such as cell adhesion and synaptic signaling．LINC01152-miRNA-mRNA regulatory network was constructed according to predicted target genes．After down-regulation of LINC01152 expression，the proliferation，migration and invasion abilities of A172 and U87 cells decreased(P＜0. 01) ，while the apoptosis of glioma cells significantly increased (P＜0. 001) ．@*Conclusion@#LINC01152 is highly expressed in glioma，which can promote the malignant biological behavior of glioma cells by enhancing proliferation，migration as well as invasion and inhibition of apoptosis.

Ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome originating from retroperitoneal paraganglioma: one case report and literature review / 中国医师杂志

Objective:To present the clinical characteristics and treatment on patients with ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH) syndrome (EAS) caused by the retroperitoneal paraganglioma.Methods:The clinical data of a case of EAS caused by retroperitoneal paraganglioma were analyzed retrospectively, and the related literature at home and abroad was reviewed.Results:The 53-year-old female patient was admitted to endocrinology department due to a fifteen-year history of hypertension, accompanied by fatigue for three months, headache and dizziness for one month. The laboratory data demonstrated severe hypokalemia, high level of serum and urinary cortisol, while the ACTH level remained unsuppressed. The 24 h urinary vanillyl mandelic acid (VMA) and serum free methoxyepinephrine (MNs) level were elevated. The abdominal computed tomographic scan suggested a retroperitoneal mass next to the abdominal aorta. After the retroperitoneal tumor resection was performed, immunohistochemical staining of the tumor revealed Syn (+ ), CgA (+ ), ACTH (focal + ). By the retrospective analysis of 22 similar cases from 16 papers and the case summarized above, we found that most patients with EAS caused by the paraganglioma could demonstrate the typical clinical features of Cushing′s syndrome, while lack of the manifestation of paraganglioma. Therefore, preoperative preparations for paraganglioma were usually neglected.Conclusions:Ectopic ACTH syndrome (EAS) originating from paraganglioma is very rare. To improve the diagnosis rate, examination for catecholamine, MNs and 24 h urinary VMA before surgery in patients with EAS is suggested. Considering surgical resection as the optimal treatment, comprehensive preoperative preparations for both paraganglioma and Cushing′s syndrome are significant. A genetic test for pheochromocytoma/ paraganglioma and lifelong postoperative follow-up are also recommend.

Clinical effect of red blood cells transfusion on newborns with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome / 中国输血杂志

【Objective】 To analyze the risk factors related to the number of RBCs transfusion in neonates with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS), and to explore the complications and the predictive indicators related to the increase of RBCs transfusion frequency. 【Methods】 NRDS newborns admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to January 2019 were selected and divided into three groups according to the number of RBCs transfusion, namely, non-transfusion group, 1~ 2 times group, and ≥3 times group. The clinical data and complications of the three groups were compared, and the risk factors leading to the increase of the number of blood transfusion were analyzed. 【Results】 Such factors as maternal age ≥35 years old, gestational age, birth weight, hemoglobin(Hb) at admission, non-invasive ventilation time, hospitalization time in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU), total enteral feeding time affected the blood transfusion frequency of the three groups(χ2=14.24, F=28.44, 41.70, 60.05, 3.83, 5.97, 4.40, P<0.05). The incidence of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), septicemia and feeding intolerance in blood transfusion ≥3 times group was significantly higher than that in 1~2 times group and non-transfusion group (χ2=19.30, 18.68, 6.98, P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that birth weight, Hb at admission, length of stay in NICU and time of reaching total enteral feeding were independent risk factors for≥ 3 times of blood transfusion (OR=-3.942, -0.186, 0.530, 0.324, P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that birth weight and Hb at admission were effective in predicting blood transfusion ≥3 times, and the area under the ROC curve were 0.846 and 0.802, respectively, and the truncation values were 2.315 kg and 157.5 g/L. 【Conclusion】 Feeding intolerance, NEC and septicemia are the complications of the increased transfusion frequency in children with NRDS, and birth weight and hemoglobin at admission are effective in predicting blood transfusion ≥ 3 times.

Immunogenicity of MDCK cell-based quadrivalent influenza split vaccine with different adjuvants in mice / 中华微生物学和免疫学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the immunogenicity of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cell-based quadrivalent influenza split vaccine (MDCK-Va) combined with different adjuvants.Methods:Different doses of MDCK-Va and chicken embryo-based quadrivalent influenza split vaccine (egg-Va) were intramuscularly immunized BALB/c mice twice with an interval of three weeks. Serum samples were collected to detect antibody titers using hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay. BALB/c mice were immunized with different doses of MDCK-Va combined with QS21, AddVax, PolyI∶C, CpG ODN 1826 and AddVax/PolyI∶C (Add/Poly), respectively. HI and microneutralization assays were used to detect antibody titers 21 d after the first and booster immunization. Spleen tissues were collected from the mice immunized with 10 μg MDCK-Va combined with the above adjuvants 5 d after the booster immunization to analyze spleen index and the types of spleen cells.Results:The immunoprotective effect of MDCK-Va was not inferior to that of egg-Va. MDCK-Va combined with each of the above adjuvants could induce higher HI antibody titer than MDCK-Va alone, especially the QS21/Va and Add/Poly/Va groups, and the differences were statistically significant. For H1N1 vaccine, the Pearson′s correlation coefficient ( r) between HI antibody and neutralizing antibody was 0.737-0.910, and for H3N2 subtype vaccine, the value of r was 0.839-0.947. Compared with the MDCK-Va group, the QS21/Va group showed significantly increased spleen index and decreased proportion of single lymphocytes. QS21 and Add/Poly were much better than other adjuvants in stimulating mouse splenic neutrophils and CD4/CD8 cells. Conclusions:Add/Poly had a stronger immune enhancement effect on MDCK-Va, suggesting that it was a potential adjuvant for MDCK-Va. The antibody titer detected by HI and MN assays had a strong positive correlation.

Objective To evaluate the cognitive dysfunction and its influential factors in patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic lacunar infarction(LI). Methods Mini-mental state examination (MMSE), MoCA and P300 were carried out among 70 patients with first attack of LI 1 week after, 66 patients with asymptomatic LI and 54 patients for control at first visit. The tests were performed again in the follow-up of half a year and one year. Results (l)The scores of MMSE and MoCA at 1 week, half a year and one year of LI at acute stage were lower than asymptomatic LI(P＜0. 01) and control group(P＜0. 01). Latent periods of P300 at each time point were longer than those in patients with asymptomatic LI (P＜0. 05) and control group (P＜0. 01). (2)The scores of MMSE and MoCA at first visit, half a year of follow-up and one year of follow-up in patients with asymptomatic LI were lower than those in control group(P＜0. 01), and the latent period of P300 was longer than that in control group(P＜0. 01). (3)The scores of MMSE and MoCA at 1 week of LI at acute stage and first visit of asymptomatic LI were higher than those after one year(P＜0. 05). The latent periods of P300 were shorter than those after one year(P＜0. 05). Compared with those half a year after, MMSE and MoCA one year after decreased more and the latent period of P300 prolonged(P＞0. 05). (4) The scores of MoCA in the aspects of visuospatial and executive function, abstract thinking and attention were lower than those in control group (P＜0. 01). (5)The score of MoCA in LI patients with multiple foci was lower than that in LI patients with single focus(P＜0. 01). The scores of MoCA in patients with foci in basal ganglia, frontal lobe, temporal lobe and thalamus were lower than those in patients with foci in other parts (P＜0. 01). Conclusion LI (both symptomatic and asymptomatic) is easily accompanied with cognitive dysfunction. The cognitive damage becomes more severe as time prolongs. The common symptoms include damages of visuospatial and executive function, abstract thinking and attention. Patients with multiple foci and with LI in key parts easily suffer from cognitive dysfunction. Thus, it needs to evaluate and prevent early.

Comparison of puncture in different positions with combined spinal and epidural anesthesia in obese parturients for cesarean section / 安徽医科大学学报

Objective To observe the influence of combined spinal and epidural anesthesia( CSEA) of different po-sitions on the anesthesia effect, anesthesia operation and hemodynamic index during cesarean section of obese par-turients. Methods Eighty obese parturients[BMI≥30] undergoing cesarean section were randomly divided into two groups, that was group A and B, with 40 cases each. In group A, the parturients were required to undergo lat-eral decubitus position with 0.5% ropivacaine hydrochloride of 2. 4 ml. In group B, the parturients were required to undergo sitting position with the same ropivacaine hydrochloride as group A. The following data was recorded, which were the percentage of one-attempt's successful epidural needle placement, the anesthesia level,the anesthe-sia effect and the hemodynamic change. All the complications were also observed,such as the supine hypotension syndrome during operation,headache after spinal anesthesia and postoperative spinal nerve stimulation. ResultsThe difference of anesthetic effect between the two groups was insignificant in statistics while group B's rate of one-attempt successful puncture was higher than gruop A ( P <0.05 ) . The difference of hemodynamic index between them was significant in statistics ( P<0.05 ) with group B's rate of supine hypotension syndrome lower than group A. Conclusion Both body positions have the same anesthtic effect for obese parturients during cesarean section while the puncture operation of sitting positon is easier than lateral decubitus position and the hemodynamic change is also more stable.

Objectives To investigate the incidence of brain injuri in premature infants in ten hospitals of seven large cities in China sponsored by the Subspecialty Group of Neonatology of Pediatric Society, China Medical Association. Methods All premature infants with gestational age less than 37 weeks in ten hospitals were given routine cranial ultrasound within three days of birth, and then repeated every 3-7 days till the discharge from the hospital during January 2005 to August 2006. Results Incidence of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) and severe IVH were 10.8% (406/3 768) and 2.4% (92/3 768) with 22.6% (92/406) for grade 1, 54.7% (222/406) for grade 2, 17.2% (70/406) for grade 3 and 5.4% (22/406) for grade 4 in nine hospitals; incidence of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) and cystic PVL were 2.3% (112/4 933) and 0.3% (16/4 933) with 85.7% (96/112) for grade 1, 12.5% (14/112) for grade 2, and 1.8% (2/112) for grade 3 including all ten hospitals, respectively. Risk factors associated with increased severity of IVH were vaginal delivery (OR = 1.874, 95% CI = 1.172 - 2.997, P < 0.01), perinatal asphyxia (OR = 1.598, 95% CI = 1.077 - 2.372, P < 0.05), mechanical ventilation (OR = 3.988, 95% CI= 2.448 -6.948, P< 0.01), and amniotic fluid contamination (OR = 2.192, 95% CI = 1.054 - 4.544, P< 0.05). Risk factors that might result in the development of cystic PVL were vaginal delivery (OR = 1.400, 95% CI = 1.186 - 1.652, P < 0.001) and mechanical ventilation (OR = 3.000, 95% CI = 1.015 - 8.864, P < 0.05). Conclusions These data reflect basically the prevalence of brain injuriy in premature infants in major cities of China. However, more than 60% of population lives in the rural area, further multicenter investigation including the rural area is expected to be undertaken in future.

Clinical study on high risk factors for intraventricular hemorrhage in premature infants / 中国小儿急救医学

Objective To study the prevalence of intraventficular hemorrhage(IVH)in premature infants using bedside cranial ultrasound scans and to analyze the associated laboratory results.Methods 114 patients admitted between February 2003 and March 2004 were eligible for the study.NAS-2000A 3D ultrasound instrument for bedside ultrasound detection were used.All the premature infants were detected for blood gas analysis,blood cell analysis(red blood cell counting,haemoglobin and haematocrit),prothrombin time (PT),fibrinogen(FIB)and activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT)in the first 24 hours of life.Results There were 34 IVH cases in 114 patients(29.8%).The ineidence of IVH of premature infants below 34 weeks gestation was 43.8%,which was higher than that of infants above 35 weeks gestation.The incidence of IVH of infants whose birth weight were below 1 500 g is 58.8%,which was higher than that of infants whose birth weight were above 1 500 g.The incidence of IVH increased with decreasing gestational age and birth weight.As compared with the values of infants without IVH,HB and HCT of the IVH infants were higher (P＜0.05);PT and APTT of the IVH inrants were longer(P＜0.01);hypoxia,hypercapnia and acidosis were more common in IVH infants(P＜0.05).Conclusion Risk factors such as short gestational age,low birth weight,increased HB and HCT,prolongation of PT and APTT,hypoxia,hypercapnia and acidosis may be associated with the IVH in premature infants.
