OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Aurora kinase A (Aurora-A) promoting cancer cell chemotherapy resistance in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. METHODS The expression of Aurora-A in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues and adjacent tissues were detected by Western bolt and Q-PCR. The highexpressing Aurora A cell line CNE2 was used to detected the cell apoptosis and the expression of key pathway marker protein after Aurora-A inhibitor VX680 and cisplatin treatment by using Flow cytometry and WB. RESULTS The expression of Aurora-A in nasopharyngeal carcinoma tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues. Comparing to normal nasopharyngeal cells NP69, Aurora-A was significantly highly expressed in all of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and was highest in CNE2. Inhibiton of Aurora-A increased the cell apoptosis and the expression of p-AKT, p21 and Cleaved-Caspase-3 after using cisplatin or the Aurora-A inhibitor VX680 treatment. CONCLUSION The results shown that Aurora-A confer chemoresistance to cisplatin treatment through p-AKT/p21/Cleaved-Caspase-3 pathway.

Objective To investigate the value of tranexamic acid combined with aspirin,low molecular weight heparin calcium in regulating inflammatory mediators and TEG in blood management of Total knee arthroplast(TKA).Methods 120 elderly patients with TKA in our hospital from January 2020 to October 2022 were randomly divided into group A(n=60)and group B(n=60).They were given tranexamic acid+aspirin and tranexamic acid+low molecular weight heparin calcium,respectively,for 2 weeks.Perioperative indexes,complications[lower limb deep vein thrombosis(DVT),intermuscular vein thrombosis(MCVT),incision infection],blood transfusion rate,adverse reactions(gastrointestinal discomfort,subcutaneous ecchymosis),TEG parameters[coagulation reaction time(R),blood coagulation time(K),maximum amplitude(MA),coagulation angle(α)],inflammatory mediators[soluble CD40 ligand(sCD40L),Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)],vascular endothelial injury factors[soluble thromboregulatory protein(sTM),vascular endothelial cell growth factor(VEGF),E-selectin]were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the 24 h postoperative drainage volume,latent blood loss,total blood loss,intraoperative blood loss,Hb and HCT levels 72 h after surgery between the two groups(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in TEG parameters between the two groups,at different time points,and between groups at different time points(P＞0.05);The serum levels of TLR4,sCD40L and TNF-α in group A were lower than those in group B 2 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05).The levels of plasma sTM and serum VEGF and E-selectin in group A were lower than those in group B 2 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of deep vein thrombosis(DVT),intermuscular vein thrombosis(MCVT),incision infection and blood transfusion rate between group A and group B(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between group A and group B(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with the combination of low molecular weight heparin calcium,the combination of tranexamic acid and aspirin can protect vascular endothelium and inhibit inflammatory response.However,both can maintain the patient's coagulation function and avoid massive blood loss or thrombosis.There is no significant difference in safety and effectiveness.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the convolutional neural network（CNN） in diagnosing nasopharyngeal carcinoma using endoscopic narrowband imaging. Methods:A total of 834 cases with nasopharyngeal lesions were collected from the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region between 2014 and 2016. We trained the DenseNet201 model to classify the endoscopic images, evaluated its performance using the test dataset, and compared the results with those of two independent endoscopic experts. Results:The area under the ROC curve of the CNN in diagnosing nasopharyngeal carcinoma was 0.98. The sensitivity and specificity of the CNN were 91.90% and 94.69%, respectively. The sensitivity of the two expert-based assessment was 92.08% and 91.06%, respectively, and the specificity was 95.58% and 92.79%, respectively. There was no significant difference between the diagnostic accuracy of CNN and the expert-based assessment （P=0.282, P=0.085）. Moreover, there was no significant difference in the accuracy in discriminating early-stage and late-stage nasopharyngeal carcinoma（P=0.382）. The CNN model could rapidly distinguish nasopharyngeal carcinoma from benign lesions, with an image recognition time of 0.1 s/piece. Conclusion:The CNN model can quickly distinguish nasopharyngeal carcinoma from benign nasopharyngeal lesions, which can aid endoscopists in diagnosing nasopharyngeal lesions and reduce the rate of nasopharyngeal biopsy.
