Objective To compare the impact on the results tested with arterial blood gas analysis and peripheral blood with glucose meter for critical patients in ICU in different temperature states. Methods The samples of venous biochemical test, blood arterial blood gas analysis and peripheral blood of 196 cases of critical patients in ICU were collected synchronously, and measure the D-value, correlation and bias adjustment factor of glucose blood tested with a synchronous fasting blood glucose test and venous/biochemical analyzer in different temperature states and different blood glucose groups, and the results of blood glucose test were analyzed. Results In normal temperature state, hypoglycemia simultaneous rapid intravenous glucose monitoring blood glucose level results compared with the lowest positive rate 3.31%(5/151), while the pairwise comparison showed there was both statistical signifcance between hypoglycemia group and target group (χ2=38.469), hyperglycemia group and target group (χ2=15.504) when choosing a synchronous fasting blood glucose test and intravenous blood glucose test (P<0.01). In high temperatures state, hypoglycemia simultaneous rapid intravenous glucose monitoring blood glucose level results compared with the lowest positive rate 0. There was both statistical significance between hypoglycemia group and target group (χ2=18.187), hypoglycemia group and hyperglycemia group (χ2=12.857) when choose a synchronous fasting blood glucose test and intravenous blood glucose test (P<0.01). Conclusions In high temperatures state, a synchronous fasting blood glucose test can not reflect the true value of blood glucose for critical patients.

BACKGROUND:Type 1 diabetes mel itus is an autoimmune disease, which is characterized as the selective destruction of pancreatic beta cel s in the body, resulting in the lack of insulin secretion. Umbilical cord blood stem cel s have the potential to differentiate into islet cel s in vitro and in vivo, which play a certain hypoglycemic effect. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects of umbilical cord blood stem cel s on blood glucose levels and PDX-1 and MafA levels in the pancreatic tissue of type 1 diabetic rats. METHODS:Thirty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups, with 10 rats in each group. In treatment and model groups, type 1 diabetes mel itus modes were established. After modeling, the treatment group was given a single tail vein injection of umbilical cord blood stem cel s;the normal control group was given the same volume of normal saline;the model group was given the same volume of umbilical cord blood stem cel buffer solution. Oral glucose tolerance test was adopted to assess the islet function of rats;hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pancreatic morphology of rats;western blot and PCR methods were employed to detect expressions of PDX-1 and MafA in pancreatic tissues at protein and mRNA levels. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Compared with the normal control group, the levels of blood glucose in the model and treatment groups were significantly higher at 0, 30, 60, 90 minutes (P<0.05). At 120 minutes, the blood glucose level in the model group was significantly higher than that in the normal control group (P<0.05), but there was no difference between the treatment and normal control groups (P>0.05). (2) The number of islets in the model group was decreased, and the boundary was unclear and irregular;in the treatment group, the number of islets was decreased, but the boundary was stil clear. (3) The expressions of PDX-1 and MafA in the treatment group were similar to those in the normal control group (P>0.05), but significantly higher than those in the model group (P<0.05). These findings suggest that the umbilical cord blood stem cel transplantation can significantly reduce the blood glucose levels in type 1 diabetic rats, improve the function of islet and morphology of pancreas, and up-reuglate the expressions of PDX-1 and MafA.

BACKGROUND:Thrombospondin-1 is an important endogenous activator of transforming growth factor beta 1 in this experimental inflammatory kidney disease model. Transforming growth factor beta 1 is considered the major cytokine that causes tissue fibrosis in many different inflammatory disease processes, in particular in renal disease.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression of thrombospondin-1 on renal fibrosis in rats.
METHODS:Healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham surgery group and model group. In themodel group, right ureters of rats were ligated to construct models of renal fibrosis. 3 weeks after surgery, blood and urine were obtained weekly. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay and Bradford method were used to detect the contents of serum creatinine,blood urea nitrogen and urinary protein. After rats were sacrificed, kidneys were fixed. Western blot assay was utilized to identify the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor, transforming growth factor beta 1 and thrombospondin-1 protein. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was applied to detect the changes in pathological structure of the kidney after surgery.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) One week after model induction, urinary protein, serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels were significantly higher in the model group than in the sham surgery group (P< 0.05). Three weeks later, the difference in each index was significant (P< 0.01), which showed that the injury of the kidney was aggravated. (2) Transforming growth factor beta 1 protein and thrombospondin-1 expression was significantly higher in the model group than in the sham surgery group, but vascular endothelial growth factor protein expression was significantly lower in the model group than in the sham surgery group. (3) Hematoxylin-eosin staining results demonstrated that severe pathological changes of renal tissue in rats were detected after ligation of renal tubule. (4) These results confirmed that thrombospondin-1 expression increased in renal tissue, and its expression was strongly associated with vascular endothelial growth factor protein and transforming growth factor beta 1, which may play an important role in the renal fibrosis.

BACKGROUND:Common strategies for preventing diabetic nephropathy include effective control of blood sugar and blood pressure, inhibition of the rennin-angiotensin system and lipid-lowering therapy, but it is often difficult to get the desired results. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels on levels of blood glucose and urinary total protein in diabetic nephropathy rats. METHODS: Forty-five Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=15 per group): normal control group, diabetic nephropathy group and stem cel transplantation group. Rats in the diabetic nephropathy and stem cel transplantation groups were given single use of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin to make diabetic nephropathy models. The same dose of citric acid-sodium citrate buffer was injected in the normal control group. After modeling, 200μL of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel solution (2×106) was injected into the left ventricle of rats in the stem cel transplantation group, and then at 7 days after the first transplantation, the cel transplantation was conducted again. The same dose of serum-free L-DMEM was injected intracardialy into the rats in the normal control and diabetic nephropathy groups. Levels of urinary total protein and blood glucose were detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 1, 4, 8 weeks after treatment, the urinary total protein and blood glucose levels were significantly higher in the stem cel transplantation group and diabetic nephropathy group than the normal control group (P < 0.05). At 1 week after treatment, the urinary total protein and blood glucose levels were significantly lower in the stem cel transplantation group than the diabetic nephropathy group (P < 0.05). At 4 and 8 weeks after treatment, the total urinary protein and blood glucose levels were slightly higher in the diabetic nephropathy group than the stem cel transplantation group, but there was no significant difference (P > 0.05). These findings indicate that bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel transplantation in diabetic nephropathy rats can get good results in a short period, significantly improve the blood glucose and urinary total protein levels, but the long-term treatment effect is poor.

Objective:To study the differences in the dosimetry and delivery time between helical tomotherapy (HT) and volumetric modulated arc therapy (VMAT) in postoperative radiotherapy of synchronous bilateral breast cancer (SBBC) and to explore the feasibility of clinical application of the HT technology.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted for nine SBBC patients who underwent modified radical postoperative radiotherapy in the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from February 2017 to May 2022. For each patient, the Precision planning system was used to formulate the HT plan, and the RayStation planning system was employed to develop the VMAT plan. All plans obtained were divided into HT group and VMAT group according to plan type. The paired sample t-test was used to compare the dosimetric parameters of the target volume and organ at risk (OAR) and delivery time between the two radiotherapy technologies. Results:The plans of both groups could meet the clinical treatment requirements. The coverage ( D95% and V100%), conformity index (CI), average dose ( Dmean), and median dose ( D50%) of the target volumes in the HT group were better than those in the VMAT group, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.21, -3.39, -5.03, 3.76, 4.97, P < 0.05). The differences in the maximum dose ( D2%), minimum dose ( D98%), high dose volumes ( V107% and V110%), and homogeneity index (HI) of the target volumes between the two groups were not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Regarding the OAR, the V20 and Dmean of both lungs in the HT group were significantly lower than those in the VMAT group, but the irradiation volume V5 of both lungs in the HT group was significantly higher than that in the VMAT group ( t=-3.01, 3.83, -2.81, P < 0.05). Moreover, V20, V30, V40, and Dmean of heart and the V20 and Dmean of liver in the HT group were significantly lower than those in the VMAT group, with statistically significant differences ( t=3.76, -2.83, -2.74, 5.93, 4.57, 4.48, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in the radiation doses to other OARs (spinal cord, thyroid gland, and humerus head, P > 0.05). The delivery time of the HT group was significantly higher than that of the VMAT group ( t = 11.32, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Compared with VMAT, HT has greater dosimetric advantages, and can provide higher target coverage, conformability and average dose, and significantly reduce the overall radiation doses to both lungs, heart, and liver in OARs. However, the irradiation volume V5 at low-dose areas of both lungs and the delivery time in the HT group are higher than those in the VMAT group, but still meet the clinical treatment requirements. Therefore, it is feasible to apply the HT technology to the modified radical postoperative radiotherapy of SBBC.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of 3D ResSE-Unet-based intelligent delineation of clinical target volume (CTV) in postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy for breast cancer.Methods:A total of 974 cases of breast cancer treated in the Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Center of the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from September 2018 to June 2022 were enrolled in this study, including 614 cases receiving total mastectomy and 360 cases treated with breast-conserving surgery. They were divided into a training set, a validation set, and a testing set. The training set consisted of 874 cases and was used to build a model of 3D ResSE-Unet-based intelligent CTV delineation. The validation set comprised 40 cases and was used to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of the clinical application of AI-based CTV design in the radiotherapy for breast cancer. The testing set was composed of 60 cases and was used to test the accuracy of intelligent CTV. The Wilcoxon rank test was used to compare the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), 95% Hausdorff distance (HD95), and average surface distance (ASD) obtained using the intelligent delineation model.Results:The intelligent delineation model showed high precision. The CTV of cases treated with total mastectomy (CTV cw) and the CTV of cases treated with breast-conserving surgery (CTV b) had DSCs greater than 0.80 and greater than 0.88, respectively. Therefore, compared with CTV cw, CTV b had a higher DSC (0.91 ± 0.03 vs.0.83 ± 0.05, t = 7.11, P < 0.05). Both CTV cw and CTV b had lower HD 95 [(7.56 ± 3.42) mm vs.(8.77 ± 5.89) mm] and ASD [(1.85 ± 0.71) mm vs.(1.86 ± 0.83)mm], without statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05). The left/right supraclavicular and infraclavicular CTV (CTV2) had DSCs greater than 0.8. CTV2 also had low average HD95 and ASD, without statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:The 3D ResSE-Unet-based intelligent CTV delineation has better consistency and feasibility in postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy for breast cancer, especially the CTVs after breast-conserving surgery.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of galvanic vestibular stimulation on stroke patients with lateropulsion. MethodsFrom February to October, 2023, 30 stroke patients with lateropulsion in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were divided into control group (n = 15) and experimental group (n = 15) randomly. The control group received routine rehabilitation and sham galvanic vestibular stimulation, and the experimental group received routine rehabilitation and true galvanic vestibular stimulation, for two weeks. They were assessed with Scale for Contraversive Pushing (SCP), subjective visual vertical (SVV), Line Cancellation Test (LCT), Star Cancellation Test (SCT), Berg Balance Scale (BBS), Holden Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) and Barthel Index (BI) before and after treatment. ResultsAll the indexes improved in both groups after intervention (|t| > 2.461, Z > 3.000, P < 0.05), except the SVV orientation, SVV certainty and SCT in the control group; while the SCP, SVV certainty, LCT and FAC were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.189, Z = -2.862, P < 0.05), and the differences before and after intervention were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.382, P < 0.05), except LCT. SCP was correlated with SVV orientation, SVV certainty, SCT, BBS, BI and FAC (|r| > 0.381, P < 0.05). ConclusionGalvanic vestibular stimulation can improve the lateropulsion, balance, walking function and activities of daily living in stroke patients, which may be related to improvement for spatial cognitive function, especially vertical perception.
