Background:With the emergence of bacterial resistance,the efficacy of Helicobacter pylori(Hp)eradication therapy is decreasing in recent years. After the previous failed course of eradication therapy,the possibility of failure of re-eradication therapy is greater. Therefore,choosing the rescue therapy for Hp re-eradication is particularly important. Aims:To investigate the efficacy of levofloxacin-based triple therapy combined with probiotics as a rescue therapy for Hp re-eradication. Methods:A total of 192 patients with a previous failed course of standard triple therapy for Hp eradication were enrolled and randomly assigned into four groups. Group A:lansoprazole 30 mg + amoxicillin 1 000 mg + levofloxacin 200 mg bid for 14 days;group B:regimen of group A with the addition of bismuth potassium citrate 600 mg bid for 14 days;group C:bifidobacterium and lactobacillus triple live bacteria 2 000 mg tid for 14 days followed by regimen of group A for 14 days;group D:regimen of group A with the addition of bifidobacterium and lactobacillus triple live bacteria 2 000 mg tid for 14 days. At 4 weeks after end of treatment,Hp eradication was assessed by 13 C-urea breath test. Adverse effects during the course of treatment were recorded. Results:A total of 177(92. 2% )patients completed the study,the completion rates in group A,B,C and D were 87. 5%(42 / 48),83. 3%(40 / 48),97. 9%(47 / 48)and 100% , respectively;the completion rates in group C and D were significantly higher than those in group A and B(P < 0. 05). By intention-to-treat(ITT)analysis,the eradication rates of group A,B,C and D were 60. 4% ,68. 8% ,81. 3% and 83. 3% ,respectively;the eradication rates in group C and D were significantly higher than that in group A(χ2 = 5. 042, P = 0. 045;χ2 = 6. 235,P = 0. 013). By per-protocol(PP)analysis,the eradication rates of group A,B,C and D were 69. 0% ,82. 5% ,83. 0% and 83. 3% ,respectively;no statistically significant differences were found among the four groups(P > 0. 05). Adverse effects included constipation,taste distortion,bloating and anorexia,the incidences of adverse effects in group A,B,C and D were 79. 2% ,95. 8% ,29. 2% and 22. 9% ,respectively;the incidences in group C and D were significantly lower than those in group A and B(P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Levofloxacin-based triple therapy combined with bifidobacterium and lactobacillus triple live bacteria can decrease the adverse effects of traditional triple and quadruple therapies and improve the patient compliance,thus increases the efficacy of rescue therapy for Hp re-eradication.

Objective: As a gate-keeper enzyme link, pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 subunit alpha (PDHA1) functions as a key regulator during glycolysis and the mitochondrial citric acid cycle, which has been reported in several tumors. Nevertheless, the effects of PDHA1 on biological behaviors and metabolism remain unclear in cervical cancer (CC) cells. The study aims to explore the PDHA1 effects on glucose metabolism in CC cells and its possible mechanism. Methods: We first determined the expression levels of PDHA1 and activating protein 2 alpha (AP2α) as a PDHA1 potential transcription factor. The effects of PDHA1 in vivo were evaluated through a subcutaneous xenograft mouse model. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine (EdU) labeling assay, Transwell invasion assay, wound healing assay, Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay and flow cytometry were performed in CC cells. Oxygen consumption rate (OCR) levels were determined to reflect aerobic glycolysis level in gastric cancer cells. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was measured with 2′, 7′-dichlorofluorescein diacetate kit. The relationship between PDHA1 and AP2α was examined by conducting chromatin immunoprecipitation assay and electrophoretic mobility shift assay. Results: In CC tissues and cell lines, PDHA1 was downregulated, while AP2α was upregulated. Overexpression of PDHA1 remarkedly inhibited the proliferation, invasion and migration of CC cells, and tumor growth in vivo, as well as promoted OCR, apoptosis and ROS production. Moreover, AP2α directly bound to PDHA1 within suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 promoter region to negatively regulate PDHA1 expression level. What is more, PDHA1 knockdown could effectively reversed the AP2α silencing-mediated suppressive effects on cell proliferation, invasion, migration, and the promotive effects of AP2α knockdown on OCR, apoptosis and ROS production. Conclusions Our findings demonstrate that AP2α negatively regulated PDHA1 via binding to PDHA1 gene promoter to promote malignant CC cell behaviors, which may provide a potential approach for CC therapeutics.

Objective To explore the effect of static air cushion at different intervals on preventing from pressure ulcers in bedridden patient .Methods One hundred patients in the department of orthopedic were chosen through the convenience sampling and self-controlled.The patients were supine , and the computer pressure sensor ( Xsensor manometry carpet ) was tiled under the body of patients .The average pressure peaks in the two lateral heel and sacrococcygeal were respectively measured after 2 h of lying ordinary mattress and 2, 3, 4 h of lying static air cushion , and the integrity of skin and the incidence of pressure ulcer were monitored during patients’ stay in bed.Results After 2 h of lying ordinary mattress , the cases of I stage pressure ulcer were 3 cases including 1 case of left heel and 2 cases of sacrococcygeal , and the incidence rate of pressure ulcer was 3%.After 2, 3, 4 h of lying static air cushion, the incidence of pressure ulcer in patients was not found , and the integrity rate of skin was 100%.After 2 h of lying ordinary mattress and static air cushion , the average pressure peaks were respectively (185.03 ±11.34), (69.13 ±9.64) mmHg in the left heel, and were (176.03 ±18.64), (76.40 ±11.52) mmHg in the right heel, and were (253.03 ±28.64), (100.23 ± 18.36)mmHg in the sacrococcygeal, and the differences were statistically significant (t =7.126,6.287, 4.235, respectively;P<0.05).No differences were found in the change of average pressure peaks in the two lateral heel and sacrococcygeal after 2, 3, 4 h of lying static air cushion ( F =5.863, 3.128, 4.852, respectively;P>0.05).Conclusions Static air mattress can effectively reduce vertical pressure on the surface of pressed parts in the bedridden patients , and the interval time of turning over can be prolonged to 4 h every time, and which can reduce the patients ’ pain caused by frequently turning over but also reduce the nurses ’ labor intensity .

OBJECTIVE：To establ ish artificial neural netw orks（ANN）model to predict the interferon in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B （CHB），and to provide evidence for selecting suitable CHB therapy plan in clinic. METHODS ：The clinical data of 92 CHB patients treated by interferon ，from Guangzhou Eighth People ’s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed from Jul. 2011 to Dec. 2019. The basic information ，biochemical indexes ，blood routine indexes and virological markers of patients were collected. According to the effect of interferon ，the patients were divided into response group （73 cases）and non-response group （19 cases）. Minitab 18.0 software was used for multivariate Logistic regression analysis to screen the factors influencing the efficacy of interferon. Neurosolutions 5.0 software was used to randomly select 30％ of patients with CHB （27 cases）as the test group to establish and verify the ANN model. RESULTS ：The mean platelet volume ，platelet distribution width ，direct bilirubin ， hepatitis B e antigen and hepatitis B virus DNA more than 4×107 IU/mL had significant effect on interferon response （P＜0.05）. The accuracy ，specificity and area under characteristic curve of ANN test group were significantly higher than those of Logistic regression（P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：ANN model is accurate in predicting the efficacy of interferon in the treatment of CHB.
