Objective To investigate the factors associated with postoperative recurrence of benign thyroid nodules and its retreatment. Method A retrospective analysis was made on the pathologies, operative indications, and the types of operations in 51 postoperative recurrent cases with benign thyroid nodules in a poriod of 18 years. Result The recurrences were associated with the pathology, number of nodules, the indications and types of primary surgery. Among the 51 cases there were 29 cases with nodular goiter and 22 cases with thyroid adenoma. 21 patients had had simple nodular resection, 16 patients had partial lobe resection, 9 patients had subtotal thyroidectomy and 5 patients had thyroid lobectomy. Among 38 cases receiving reoperation, 19 cases had lobectomy, 3 cases had lobectomy plus opposite subtotal thyroidectomy, 7 cases had subtotal thyroidectomy and 9 cases had bilateral subtotal thyroidectomies without serious postoperative complications. 32 cases were followed up after secondary operation with an average period of 7 years, among which 1 case with multinodular goiter had recurrence. Conclusion Strict restriction on thyroidectomy for patients with mutinodular goiter and giving up simple nodular enucleation could help reduce postoperative recurrence of benign thyroid nodules.

OBJECTIVETo assess the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms of hsa-miR-196a2, hsa-miR-149, hsa-miR-146a, hsa-miR-499 with susceptibility to ischemic stroke.
METHODSTaqman-PCR and DNA sequencing assays were employed to determine the genotypes of the 4 loci among 510 patients and 523 controls. And their association with the disease was assessed.
RESULTSAnalysis showed that smoking, diabetes, hypertension, BMI index and abnormal serum lipid metabolism were significantly associated with ischemic stroke, and that rs2910164 was significantly associated with the disease in codominant (CG vs. CC: P=0.002, OR=1.878, 95%CI=1.269-2.789), dominant (P=0.012, OR=1.325, 95%CI=1.110-1.580), recessive (P=0.008, OR=1.630, 95%CI=1.130-2.342) and allele (P=0.002, OR=1.449, 95%CI=1.210-1.731) genetic models. Stratified analysis further showed that the significant association only existed in population with smoking and hypertension. By contrast, no association was found between hsa-miR-196a2 rs11614913, hsa-miR-149 rs2292832 and hsa-miR-499 rs3746444 with the disease.
CONCLUSIONOur study indicated that smoking, diabetes, hypertension, fat and hyperlipidemia are risk factors for ischemic stroke. Hsa-miR-146a rs2910164 is significantly associated with the disease in those with smoking and hypertension in Dongyang region and may be involved in the process of the disease. The G allele G, GG and CG+GG genotypes of the locus may underlie the susceptibility to the disease in Dongyang region.

Objective:To study the main active components and potential mechanism of the treatment of ovarian cancer by Scutellariae Barbatae Herba - Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus based on network pharmacology and in vitro cell experiments.Methods:TCMSP and SwissTargetPrediction databases were used to retrieve and collect the active components and targets of Scutellariae Barbatae Herba - Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus, and four databases including GeneCards, OMIM, DrugBank and DisGeNET were used to search the targets related to ovarian cancer. After screening the common potential targets of Scutellariae Barbatae Herba - Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus and ovarian cancer, the STRING database was used to realize the construction of PPI network interacting with the proteins of the two common targets. DAVID database was used for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. Cytoscape 3.9.0 software was used to construct the "active component-target-pathway" network. Finally, the key targets and pathways were validated in vitro. MTT method was used to detect the proliferation inhibition rate of human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells with different concentrations of Quercetin and sitosterol. Human ovarian cancer SKOV3 cells were divided into control group, Quercetin group and sitosterol group according to the random number table method. After corresponding drug intervention for 48 hours, the effects of Quercetin and sitosterol on SKOV3 cell cloning ability were detected by clone formation experiment, the levels of Akt1, VEGFA, Caspase-3 mRNA in each group were detected by PCR, and the protein expressions of PI3K, Akt, p-Akt, Caspase-3, and VEGFA in cells were detected by Western blot.Results:Through screening, 29 effective chemical components in Scutellariae Barbatae Herba and 3 effective chemical components in Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus were obtained, including 2 components in total. 291 drug-related targets, 1969 potential targets of ovarian cancer were acquired. There were 137 common targets of "Scutellariae Barbatae Herba - Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus" and the drug-disease intersection of ovarian cancer. Through GO functional analysis, 930 items were obtained, involving 722 biological processes, 76 cellular components and 132 molecular functions. KEGG enrichment analysis involved 169 signaling pathways, including tumor pathway, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, P-53 signaling pathway, IL-17 signaling pathway, etc. In vitro experiment results showed that cell proliferation inhibition rate increased and cell cloning ability decreased in Quercetin and sitosterol groups; The levels of Akt1 and VEGFA mRNA in Quercetin group and sitosterol group decreased ( P<0.01 or P<0.05), the expression of Caspase-3 mRNA and protein increased ( P<0.01), and the expressions of PI3K, p-Akt and VEGFA protein decreased ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Scutellariae Barbatae Herba - Cremastrae Pseudobulbus Pleiones Pseudobulbus inhibits the occurrence and development of ovarian cancer through multi target and multi pathway synergistic effects, and can induce SKOV3 cell apoptosis by regulating the expressions of key genes such as AKT1, VEGFA, Caspase-3, and PI3K/Akt pathway.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the influential factors for rivaroxaban-induced bleeding events in patients with non- valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) and coronary heart disease. METHODS A total of 64 hospitalized patients with NVAF complicated with coronary heart disease who were treated with rivaroxaban and admitted to the Fuzhou University Affiliated Provincial Hospital from November 2021 to May 2023 were included in this retrospective study. The demographic data, laboratory test indexes and other general clinical data, and steady-state trough concentration of rivaroxaban were collected, and the dose- adjusted trough concentration was calculated. The occurrence of bleeding events within 6 months after discharge was recorded. The univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were adopted to determine the independent risk factors of rivaroxaban- related bleeding events. The binary Logistic regression equation was constructed to predict the probability of bleeding events. The area under the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was used to analyze the predictive value of the regression equation. RESULTS Among 64 patients, 19 patients had 24 case-times bleeding events, most of which were mild bleeding (19 case-times, 79.2%), and mainly gastrointestinal bleeding (17 case-times, 70.8%). After symptomatic treatment and adjustment of the anticoagulant regimen, most of them were improved or cured. In the univariate analysis, the proportion of patients with a history of anemia, platelet count, urea nitrogen content, steady-state trough concentration of rivaroxaban, dose-adjusted trough concentration and coagulation indexes [international normalized ratio, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time] in bleeding group were significantly more or higher than those in non-bleeding group, while the albumin level was significantly lower than that in non-bleeding group (P<0.05). In binary Logistics regression analysis, high PT level (odds ratio=1.473, 95% confidence interval=1.103-1.967, P= 0.009) and high rivaroxaban dose-adjusted trough concentration (odds ratio=1.174, 95% confidence interval=1.018-1.355, P= 0.027) were independent risk factors for rivaroxaban-related bleeding events. The binary Logistic regression equation of bleeding event prediction probability (P) was LogitP=-6.975+0.387×PT level+0.161×dose-adjusted trough concentration, and the AUC of the ROC curve was 0.825 (95% confidence interval was 0.708-0.909, P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS The risk factors of rivaroxaban-related bleeding events in patients with NVAF and coronary heart disease include previous anemia history, high platelet count, high urea nitrogen content, high rivaroxaban steady-state trough concentration, high dose-adjusted trough concentration, high coagulation indexes and low albumin level. High PT level and high dose-adjusted trough concentration are independent risk factors that can be used to predict the risk of rivaroxaban-induced bleeding events. The regression equation has good predictive value.
