RESUMO

The oil used to fry food is often used multiple times to reduce costs. However, when foods containing sweeteners are processed in this way, the sweeteners may produce substances harmful to the body as a result of repeated frying at high temperatures. This article investigated the stability of sodium cyclamate during deep-frying by HPLC using a pre-column derivatization method. The results showed that cyclohexylamine was a decomposition product of a standard sample of sodium cyclamate when deep-fried at 200°C for 25 min. A pre-column derivatization/HPLC method was established to determine cyclohexylamine, a decomposition product of sodium cyclamate, under these conditions. Dansyl chloride was used as the derivatization reagent, the derivatization temperature was 60°C, the derivatization time was 20 min, the pH of sodium bicarbonate buffer solution was 11, and the concentration of dansyl chloride was 2.0 mg/mL. Detection was carried out by using an Agilent 1260 high-performance liquid chromatograph coupled with an ultraviolet detector. The ultraviolet detection wavelength was 254 nm, and the mobile phase was acetonitrile-1.0 g/L potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution at a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. Gradient elution was adopted, the peak of the cyclohexylamine derivative appeared at a retention time of 17.75 min, and the peak area response value was the largest. The methodological validation analysis showed that the detection limit of cyclohexylamine was 0.5 mg/kg, the quantification limit was 2.0 mg/kg, and the spiked recoveries were in the range of 99.37-110.16%. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) were in the range of 0.17-1.26%. Four samples were tested and analyzed by the established method, and cyclohexylamine was not detected.

RESUMO

Conserving biodiversity is crucial for maintaining essential ecosystem functions, as indicated by the positive relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. However, the impacts of declining biodiversity on ecosystem functions in response to mounting human pressures remain uncertain. This uncertainty arises from the complexity of trade-offs among human activities, climate change, river properties, and biodiversity, which have not been comprehensively addressed collectively. Here, we provide evidence that river biodiversity was significantly and positively associated with multifunctionality and contributed to key ecosystem functions such as microbially driven water purification, leaf litter decomposition and pathogen control. However, human pressure led to abrupt changes in microbial diversity and river multifunctionality relationships at a human pressure value of 0.5. In approximately 30 % (N = 58) of countries globally, the ratio of area above this threshold exceeded the global average (~11 %), especially in Europe. Results show that human pressure affected ecosystem functions through direct effects and interactive effects. We provide more direct evidence that the nonadditive effects triggered by prevailing human pressure impact the multifunctionality of rivers globally. Under high levels of human stress, the beneficial effects of biodiversity on nutrient cycling, carbon storage, gross primary productivity, leaf litter decomposition, and pathogen control tend to diminish. Our findings highlight that considering interactions between human pressure and local abiotic and biotic factors is key for understanding the fate of river ecosystems under climate change and increasing human pressure.

RESUMO

RATIONALE: Several lines of evidence indicate that an insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism in the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene (ACE) gene may be involved in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia and cognitive impairment. However, the relationship between ACE I/D polymorphism and cognitive impairment in patients with schizophrenia remains unclear. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to examine whether ACE gene I/D polymorphism contributed to cognitive impairment in Chinese patients with schizophrenia, and whether the association between clinical symptoms and cognitive impairment depended on different ACE genotypes. METHODS: The ACE I/D polymorphism was genotyped in 928 schizophrenia patients and 325 healthy controls using a case-control design. The severity of psychopathological symptoms was assessed using the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). Cognitive functioning was assessed by the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS). RESULTS: There were significant differences in genotype and allele frequencies of the ACE I/D polymorphism between patients and healthy controls (both P < 0.01). After controlling for demographic characteristics, patients who are homozygous carriers of D and I performed worse on the RBANS attention index than heterozygous carriers (P = 0.009). In addition, attention index score was negatively correlated with PANSS negative symptom score in patients of all genotypes (all P < 0.05), and positively correlated with positive symptom score only in the I/I genotype (P = 0.005). CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that ACE I/D gene variants play a role in susceptibility to schizophrenia, specific cognitive impairment and the association between clinical symptoms and cognitive impairment in schizophrenia patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The KangDuo Surgical Robot (KD-SR) is a newly developed surgical robot. OBJECTIVE: To compare the safety and efficacy of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) using the KD-SR with those of the da Vinci Si Surgical System (DV-SS-Si). DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS: A prospective double-center noninferiority randomized controlled trial was conducted among 18-75-yr-old patients with suspected T1-2N0M0 prostate cancer (PCa) scheduled for RARP. INTERVENTION: RARP with the KD-SR (KD-RARP) versus RARP with the DV-SS-Si (DV-RARP). OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: The primary outcome was surgical success, defined as follows: surgery can be performed according to the established protocol, without switching to other surgical modalities, and without secondary surgery due to surgical complications after surgery. The secondary outcome was short-term functional and oncological outcomes. The noninferiority threshold was set at 10%. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: Eighty patients were enrolled, while the full analysis set finally included 79 patients (40 with KD-RARP and 39 with DV-RARP). The success rate was 100% in both groups. We could not find differences in urinary continence rate at 1, 2, 3, and 4 wk after catheter removal between the groups (p > 0.05). The rate of Clavien-Dindo grade II adverse events was 20% in the KD-RARP group and 17.9% in the DV-RARP group (p = 0.82), and no grade ≥III adverse events occurred. The median operation time was significantly longer in the KD-RARP group than in the DV-RARP group (177.5 vs 145 min, p = 0.012). The main limitations were the short follow-up period and that survival was not considered as the primary outcome. CONCLUSIONS: The KD-SR is a viable option for RARP, with acceptable short-term outcomes compared with the DV-SS-Si for T1-2 PCa. PATIENT SUMMARY: This is the first prospective randomized controlled trial to compare the KangDuo Surgical Robot (KD-SR) versus the da Vinci Si Surgical System (DV-SS-Si) for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, which determines that the KD-SR is noninferior to the DV-SS-Si regarding safety and efficacy for T1-T2 prostate cancer.

RESUMO

Microplastics, as a type of anthropogenic pollution in aquatic ecosystems, affect the carbon cycle of organic matter. Although some studies have investigated the effects of microplastics on dissolved organic matter (DOM), the impact of alterations in the chemical properties of microplastics on refractory DOM and carbon release remains unclear. Here, we observed that microplastic treatments (e.g., polystyrene, PS) altered the composition and function of microbial community, notably increasing the abundance of microbial families involved in consuming easily degradable organic matter. During the process in which microbial community decomposed organic matter into DOM, PS underwent surface oxidation. The oxidized PS aggregated with DOM and microorganisms through electrostatic interactions and chemical bonds. Moreover, these interactions between oxidized PS and microbial community affect the utilization of organic matter, resulting in a significant decrease in CO2 emissions. Specifically, total CO2 emissions decreased by approximately 23.76 % with 0.1 mg/L PS treatment and by 44.97 % with 10 mg/L PS treatment compared to those in PS-free treatments over the entire reaction. These findings underscored the significance of the chemical properties of PS in the interactions among DOM and microorganisms, emphasizing the potential impact of PS microplastics on the carbon cycle in ecosystems.

RESUMO

Arsenic pollution control technology in water was important to ensure environmental health and quality safety of agricultural products. Therefore, the adsorption performance of three adsorbents for chitosan, sepiolite, and Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 (ZIF-8) were investigated in arsenate contaminated water. The results revealed that the adsorption capacity of ZIF-8 was higher than that of chitosan and sepiolite. The analysis of adsorption isotherm models showed that the behavior of ZIF-8 was more consistent with the Langmuir model. Furthermore, the adsorption mechanisms of three adsorbents for arsenate were investigated by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The analysis of FTIR showed that ZIF-8 maintained the stability of the interaction with arsenate by forming As-O chemical bonds. However, the effect of chitosan and sepiolite with arsenate was mainly physical adsorption. The analysis of XPS showed that the absorption of ZIF-8 with arsenate involved metal sites and nitrogen through the characteristic peak and the change of the binding energy. Furthermore, the impact of microplastics as a widespread coexistence pollutant in the water on adsorbent performance was investigated. The results indicated that the adsorption capacity of ZIF-8 was almost not affected by microplastics. The maximum adsorption amount of arsenate was changed from 73.45 mg/g to 81.89 mg/g. However, the maximum adsorption amount of chitosan and sepiolite decreased by 31.4 % and 11.6 %, respectively. The analysis of FTIR and XPS revealed that ZIF-8 enhances arsenate adsorption by forming N-O-As bonds in the presence of microplastics. This study provides scientific evidence for the management of arsenate pollution in water bodies, especially in complex water bodies containing microplastics.

RESUMO

Purpose: Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is widely used in diabetes management and now recommended for diagnosis and risk assessment. Our research focused on investigating the optimal cutoff points of HbA1c for diagnosis of diabetes and prediabetes in Chinese breast cancer women, aiming to enhance early detection and tailor treatment strategies. Patients and Methods: This study involved 309 breast cancer women without diabetes history in China. Patients were categorized into groups of newly diagnosed diabetes, prediabetes, and normal glucose tolerance using oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) according to the 2010 ADA criteria. HbA1c data were collected from all patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the effectiveness of the HbA1c screening. Results: Among the 309 breast cancer women without diabetes history, 96 (31.0%) were identified with diabetes and 130 (42.1%) had prediabetes according to OGTT, and the incidence of normal glucose tolerance was only 26.9% (83). ROC curve analysis, using OGTT as a reference, revealed that the area under the curve of 0.903 (P<0.001, 95% CI, 0.867-0.938) for HbA1c alone, indicating high accuracy. The optimal HbA1c cutoff for identifying diabetes was determined to be 6.0%, with a sensitivity of 78.1% and specificity of 86.4%. For prediabetes, the ROC curve for HbA1c alone showed that the area under the ROC curve of 0.703 (P<0.001, 95% CI, 0.632-0.774), with an optimal cutoff of 5.5% (sensitivity of 76.9% and specificity of 51.8%). Conclusion: The prevalence of undiagnosed diabetes is very high in breast cancer women without diabetes history in China. The optimal cutoff points of HbA1c for identifying diabetes and prediabetes are 6.0% and 5.5% in Chinese breast cancer women, respectively.

RESUMO

The frequency, duration, and intensity of heat waves (HWs) within terrestrial ecosystems are increasing, posing potential risks to agricultural production. Cerium dioxide nanoparticles (CeO2 NPs) are garnering increasing attention in the field of agriculture because of their potential to enhance photosynthesis and improve stress tolerance. In the present study, CeO2 NPs decreased the grain yield, grain protein content, and amino acid content by 16.2, 23.9, and 10.4%, respectively, under HW conditions. Individually, neither the CeO2 NPs nor HWs alone negatively affected rice production or triggered stomatal closure. However, under HW conditions, CeO2 NPs decreased the stomatal conductance and net photosynthetic rate by 67.6 and 33.5%, respectively. Moreover, stomatal closure in the presence of HWs and CeO2 NPs triggered reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation (increased by 32.3-57.1%), resulting in chloroplast distortion and reduced photosystem II activity (decreased by 9.4-36.4%). Metabolic, transcriptomic, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) analyses revealed that, under HW conditions, CeO2 NPs activated a stomatal closure pathway mediated by abscisic acid (ABA) and ROS by regulating gene expression (PP2C, NCED4, HPCA1, and RBOHD were upregulated, while CYP707A and ALMT9 were downregulated) and metabolite levels (the content of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) increased while that of gallic acid decreased). These findings elucidate the mechanism underlying the yield and nutritional losses induced by stomatal closure in the presence of CeO2 NPs and HWs and thus highlight the potential threat posed by CeO2 NPs to rice production during HWs.

RESUMO

Nitrogen fixation by the diazotrophic cyanobacterium Trichodesmium contributes up to 50% of the bioavailable nitrogen in the ocean. N2 fixation by Trichodesmium is limited by the availability of nutrients, such as iron (Fe) and phosphorus (P). Although colloids are ubiquitous in the ocean, the effects of Fe limitation on nitrogen fixation by marine colloids (MC) and the related mechanisms are largely unexplored. In this study, we found that MC exhibit photoelectrochemical properties that boost nitrogen fixation by photoelectrophy in Trichodesmium erythraeum. MC efficiently promote photosynthesis in T. erythraeum, thus enhancing its growth. Photoexcited electrons from MC are directly transferred to the photosynthetic electron transport chain and contribute to nitrogen fixation and ammonia assimilation. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that MC significantly upregulates genes related to the electron transport chain, photosystem, and photosynthesis, which is consistent with elevated photosynthetic capacities (e.g., Fv/Fm and carboxysomes). As a result, MC increase the N2 fixation rate by 67.5-89.3%. Our findings highlight a proof-of-concept electron transfer pathway by which MC boost nitrogen fixation, broadening our knowledge on the role of ubiquitous colloids in marine nitrogen biogeochemistry.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: DNA methylation may be involved in the regulation of malignant transformation from sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The study of gene methylation changes and screening of differentially methylated loci (DMLs) are helpful to predict the possible key genes in the malignant transformation of SNIP-SCC. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Microarray dataset GSE125399 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and differentially methylated loci (DMLs) were analyzed using R language (Limma package). ClusterProfiler R package was used to perform Gene Ontology (GO) analysis on up-methylated genes and draw bubble maps. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway and its visualization analysis were analyzed to speculate the possible key Genes in SNIP-SCC malignant transformation. Subsequently, SNIP cases archived in our department were collected, tissue microarray was made, and immunohistochemical staining was performed to analyze the expression levels of UCKL1, GSTT1, HLA-G, MAML2 and NRGN in different grades of sinonasal papilloma tissues. RESULTS: Analysis of dataset GSE125399 identified 56 DMLs, including 49 upregulated DMLs and 7 downregulated DMLs. Thirty-one genes containing upregulated DNA methylation loci and three genes containing downregulated DNA methylation loci were obtained by methylation microarray annotation analysis. In addition, KEGG pathway visualization analysis of 31 up-methylated genes showed that there were four significantly up-methylated genes including UCKL1, GSTT1, HLA-G and MAML2, and one significantly down-methylated gene NRGN. Subsequently, compared with non-neoplasia nasal epithelial tissues, the expression of HLA-G and NRGN was upregulated in grade I, II, III and IV tissues, while the expression of MAML2 was lost. The protein expression changes of MAML2 and NRGN were significantly negatively correlated with their gene methylation levels. CONCLUSIONS: By analyzing the methylation dataset, we obtained four up-regulated methylation genes UCKL1, GSTT1, HLA-G and MAML2 and one down-regulated gene NRGN. MAML2, a tumor suppressor gene with high methylation modification but loss of protein expression, and NRGN, a tumor gene with low methylation modification but upregulated protein expression, can be used as biological indicators to judge the malignant transformation of SNIP-SCC.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cerebral syphilitic gumma is a relatively rare clinical disease. Its clinical manifestations are non-specific, and the imaging manifestations are similar to other intracranial occupying lesions, often misdiagnosed as tumors or abscesses. There are few reports on this disease in the relevant literature. To our knowledge, we have reported the first case of cerebral syphilitic gumma misdiagnosed as a brain abscess.We report this case and provide useful information for clinical doctors on neurosyphilis diseases. CASE SUMMARY: We report the case to explore the diagnostic essentials of cerebral syphilitic gumma and attempt to mitigate the rates of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis by equipping physicians with knowledge of neurosyphilis characteristics. The clinical diagnosis and treatment of a patient with cerebral syphilitic gumma were reported. Clinical manifestations, classifications, and diagnostic points were retrospectively analyzed. The patient was admitted to the hospital with fever and limb weakness. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple space-occupying lesions and a positive serum Treponema pallidum gelatin agglutination test. The patient was misdiagnosed as having a brain abscess and underwent a craniotomy. A postoperative pathological diagnosis of syphilis gumma was made. The patient improved and was discharged after penicillin anti-syphilis treatment. Follow-up recovery was satisfactory. CONCLUSION: Cerebral syphilitic gumma is rare in clinical practice, and it is often misdiagnosed and missed. Clinical diagnosis should be considered in combination with multiple examinations.

RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVES: Psychiatric comorbidities are relatively common among patients with epilepsy; however, the underlying mechanisms of this association remain largely unknown. The objective of this Mendelian randomization (MR) study was to analyze the genetic correlations and causality underlying these reciprocal associations. METHODS: Single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with epilepsy (29,677 controls and 15,212 cases) and seven psychiatric comorbidities (485,436 controls and 269,495 cases) were identified from genome-wide association studies. Causal significance was estimated using inverse variance weighting. Sensitivity analyses included the weighted median, MR-Egger, and MR-PRESSO. The psychiatric comorbidities analyzed in this study included attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and anorexia nervosa. RESULTS: Both forward and reverse genetic associations were observed for the selected psychiatric disorders. Notably, ADHD was significantly associated with an increased risk of generalized epilepsy (odds ratio [OR], 1.09; 95 % confidence interval [CI], 1.01-1.18; p = 0.013). However, MR-PRESSO detected the existence of pleiotropy (p = 0.001). Additionally, focal epilepsy was significantly associated with a higher risk of OCD (OR, 1.44; 95 % CI, 1.08-1.92; p = 0.013), and all sensitivity tests yielded favorably nonsignificant results. There was no significant genetic association between epilepsy and other examined psychiatric disorders. However, due to the detection of pleiotropy by MR-Egger and considerations related to the threshold for genetic instruments, a cautious approach is warranted in interpreting some of the results. CONCLUSIONS: This study revealed significant genetic causality between focal epilepsy and OCD, as well as between ADHD and generalized epilepsy. However, no casual significance was observed with other psychiatric comorbidities examined. Considering the inherent limitations of MR studies, further research is warranted to definitively clarify these genetic causal associations.

RESUMO

The genus Laccaria is a type of cosmopolitan and ecologically important fungal group. Members can form ectomycorrhizal associations with numerous trees, and some species are common edible fungi in local markets. Although some new species from China are recently published, the species diversity of Laccaria is still unclear in China. In this study, some samples of Laccaria were collected from southern China, and morphological characteristics and phylogenetic analyses based on the multilocus dataset of ITS-LSU-tef1-rpb2 confirmed five new species. Laccaria miniata, L. nanlingensis and L. neovinaceoavellanea were collected from subtropical broad-leaved forests, and L. rufobrunnea and L. umbilicata were collected from subtropical mixed forests of southwest China. Full descriptions, illustrations, comparisons with similar species and phylogenetic analysis are provided.

RESUMO

Objective:To observe the different administration methods of methoxamine on the body temperature protection of patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG).Methods:The clinical data of 278 patients underwent OPCABG from January 2019 to December 2021 in Jinzhou Central Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were used the methoxamine during the operation. Among them, 157 cases were given methoxamine by continuous intravenous infusion (continuous intravenous infusion group), and 121 cases were given methoxamine by fractional intravenous infusion in stages (fractional intravenous infusion group). The changes of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate during operation were recorded, and the fluctuation rate of MAP was calculated. The dosage of methoxamine, use time of variable temperature blanket, time from the end of operation to waking up and occurrence of adverse reactions such as hypothermia, rigors, coagulation disorders and renal insufficiency were recorded.Results:During anesthesia, the fluctuation rate of MAP in continuous intravenous infusion group was significantly lower than that in fractional intravenous infusion group: (16.62 ± 3.17)% vs. (23.53±3.69)%, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). The MAP and heart rate of continuous intravenous infusion group were more stable at each time point than that of fractional intravenous infusion group. The use time of variable temperature blanket, and incidences of hypothermia, rigors in continuous intravenous infusion group were significantly lower than those in fractional intravenous infusion group: (86.17 ± 19.66) min vs. (146.72 ± 29.37) min, 2.55% (4/157) vs. 9.92% (12/121) and 1.91% (3/157) vs. 8.26% (10/121), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01 or <0.05); there were no statistical differences in dosage of methoxamine, time from the end of operation to waking up and incidence of coagulation disorders between two groups ( P>0.05); Renal insufficiency did not occur in both groups. Conclusions:Continuous intravenous pumping of methoxamine can obviously reduce the heat loss of human body, enhance the insulation effect of other insulation measures, and reduce the incidence of hypothermia in patients underwent OPCABG.

RESUMO

This article uses the "behavioural and social drivers of vaccination" model released by the World Health Organization (WHO) in 2022 to analyze influenza vaccine policy documents issued by the state and governments. This indicates that the current influenza vaccination policy in China has paid some attention to "publicity and mobilization", but it still pays insufficient attention to "vaccination convenience". It is recommended to continue to strengthen publicity and mobilization, explore ways to improve the convenience of vaccination, formulate corresponding plans to improve the convenience of vaccination, scientifically set vaccination rate targets, and encourage areas with conditions to carry out free vaccination projects for key populations.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE@#This study aimed to determine the HIV-1 subtype distribution and HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) in patients with ART failure from 2014 to 2020 in Hainan, China.@*METHODS@#A 7-year cross-sectional study was conducted among HIV/AIDS patients with ART failure in Hainan. We used online subtyping tools and the maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree to confirm the HIV subtypes with pol sequences. Drug resistance mutations (DRMs) were analyzed using the Stanford University HIV Drug Resistance Database.@*RESULTS@#A total of 307 HIV-infected patients with ART failure were included, and 241 available pol sequences were obtained. Among 241 patients, CRF01_AE accounted for 68.88%, followed by CRF07_BC (17.00%) and eight other subtypes (14.12%). The overall prevalence of HIVDR was 61.41%, and the HIVDR against non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs), nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), and protease inhibitors (PIs) were 59.75%, 45.64%, and 2.49%, respectively. Unemployed patients, hypoimmunity or opportunistic infections in individuals, and samples from 2017 to 2020 increased the odd ratios of HIVDR. Also, HIVDR was less likely to affect female patients. The common DRMs to NNRTIs were K103N (21.99%) and Y181C (20.33%), and M184V (28.21%) and K65R (19.09%) were the main DRMs against NRTIs.@*CONCLUSION@#The present study highlights the HIV-1 subtype diversity in Hainan and the importance of HIVDR surveillance over a long period.

RESUMO

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of a novel surgery, to restore irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation (IAAD) by atlantoaxial joint release through wedge-end-mini-channel (via conventional Smith-Robinson anterolateral approach) combined with posterior fixation.Methods:Five patients with IAAD from May 2013 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 3 males and 2 females, aged 44.6±9.0 years (range, 38-61). All the patients received atlantoaxial joint release through wedge-end-mini-channel (via conventional Smith-Robinson anterolateral approach) combined with posterior fixation. The Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score and improvement rate, American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) grade, atlantodental interval (ADI) and reduction rate, space available for the cord (SAC) and fusion of bone graft were measured and recorded.Results:The follow-up time was 80.0±23.1 months (range, 34-96 months). The surgery time of anterior joint release was 105±23 min (range, 75-135 min), and the total surgery time was 234±42 min (range, 212-276 min). The blood loss of anterior joint release was 80±16 ml (range, 60-100 ml), and the total blood loss was 123±34 ml (range, 85-150 ml). JOA scores were 6.6±0.9 before surgery, 11.2±0.4 at post-operative 1 month, and 14.8±0.80 at the last follow-up ( F=97.28, P<0.001), and the improvement rate of the last follow-up JOA score was 79.1%±7.64%. The ASIA grade were three cases of 'C’ level and two cases of 'D’ level before surgery, and two cases of 'D’ level and three cases of 'E’ level at the last follow-up. The ADI before surgery, at post-operative 6 months and the last follow-up were 9.56±1.07 mm, 1.46±0.39 mm and 1.48±0.29 mm, respectively ( F=206.54, P<0.001). The reduction rate of last follow-up ADI was 84.6%±1.4%. The SAC before surgery, at post-operative 6 months and last follow-up were 10.3±1.83 mm, 20.12±1.19 mm and 20.06±1.25 mm, respectively ( F=44.47, P<0.001). Grafted bone fuse was seen in 3 cases at post-operative 6 months, and 5 cases at post-operative 12 months. The only complication was unexpected titanium rod fracture in 1 case at post-operative 14 months. Conclusion:For IAAD, the novel surgery of atlantoaxial joint release through wedge-end-mini-channel (via conventional Smith-Robinson anterolateral approach) combined with posterior fixation could achieve well joint restoration and neural function improvement, which was a safe and effective procedure.

RESUMO

Abstract Objective To explore the molecular mechanism of neuropathologic damage induced by radiofrequency ablation at different temperatures. Methods This is basic research, and 36 SD rats were used to construct the neuropathological injury model. The rats were subjected to radiofrequency stimulation at different temperatures and were divided into 6 groups according to the temperature injury: 42°, 47°, 52°, 57°, 62°, and 67°C groups. Conduction time, conduction distance, and nerve conduction velocity were recorded after temperature injury. HE-staining was used to observe the histopathological morphology of the sciatic nerve. The expression of SCN9A, SCN3B, and NFASC protein in sciatic nerve tissue were detected by western blot. Results With the increase in temperature, nerve conduction velocity gradually decreased, and neurons were damaged when the temperature was 67°C. HE-staining showed that the degrees of degeneration of neurons in rats at 47°, 52°, 57°, 62°, and 67°C were gradually increased. The expression of SCN9A, SCN3B protein in 57°, 62°, 67°C groups were much higher than that of NC, 42°, 47°, 52°C groups. However, the expression of NFASC protein in 57°, 62°, 67°C groups was much lower than that of the NC, 42°, 47°, 52°C groups. Conclusion There was a positive correlation between temperature caused by the radiofrequency stimulation to neuropathological damage. The mechanism is closely related to the expression of SCN9A, SCN3B, and NFASC protein in nerve tissue caused by heat transfer injury.
