Objective To discuss the value of intraoperative transnasal cholangiography in endoscopic sphincterotomy(EST) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC) for treating cholelithiasis complicated with choledocholithiasis.Methods The EST was carried out to treat common bile duct stones and to conduct the endoscopic nasobiliary drainage(ENBD).During the LC the cholangiography was performed by way of ENBD.Results Intraoperative cholangiography was successfully completed in all 46 cases,with a cholangiography time of 5~15 min(mean,8.2 min).Secondary common duct stones migrated from the gallbladder were found by cholangiography in 4 cases,in 2 of which the stones were removed under endoscope during the procedure,and in 2 of which the stones were

Objective To explore the clinical expression of P53, Livin and PARP in the epithelial ovarian cancer and its correlation with the chemotherapy resistance and clinical prognosis.Methods 74 specimen of epithelial ovarian cancer confirmed from January 2009 to June 2011 in our gynecology department were selected.During the follow-up visit, the subjects were divided into chemotherapy sensitivity group and chemotherapy resistance group according to the recurrence cases, the clinical expression and survival rate for two groups were compared, the influence factors of survival time were analyzed.Results The positive rate of P53, Livin and PARP for chemotherapy sensitivity group was 47.1%, 56.9%and 52.9%;the positive rate for chemotherapy resistance group was 73.9%, 95.7% and 95.7%,the diyforences were significant(P<0.05).After 1, 3 and 5 years of treatment, the survival rate for chemotherapy sensitivity group was 100.0%, 82.4% and 66.7%,The survival rate for chemotherapy resistance group was 87.0%, 26.1% and 8.7%,the diyforences were significant(P<0.05).Based on the Cox regression model, the influence factors of the patient's age, pathological differentiation degree, clinical staging and chemotherapy sensitivity were introduced.It was known that the patient's survival time was greatly influenced by clinical staging and chemotherapy sensitivity (P<0.05).Conclusion For patients with epithelial ovarian cancer, the expression of P53, Livin and PARP is correlated with chemotherapy resistance.Therefore, the clinical effect is predictable, for patients with higher expression, the personalized therapy can improve the patient's prognosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical value and therapeutic effect of biliary stent insertion(EMBE, ERBD)and ENBD via endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography(ERCP)on malignant obstructive jaundice.Methods A retrospective review was conducted of 51 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice receiving ERCP in our hospital from June 2002 to March 2009.Different biliary stents or ENBD were placed into their biliary duct to drain bile.Meanwhile, the efective power, incidence rate, unobstructive time, and live time were determined.Results ERCP was successfully performed in all these 51 cases and 31 of them were successfully embedded with self-expandable metal stents while 15 of them had plastic stents.The last 2 cases were only treated with ENBD.Eleven cases had complications, but none of them had sequela after prompt treatment.In 48 cases, the serum level of total bilirubin decreased from(279.6±143.7)μmol/L to(125.7±78.3)μmol/L after drainage(P＜0.01).The follow-up investigation in 39 cases indicated that the 3-and 6-month survival rates after the treatment were 91% and 74%, respectively.Conclusion Biliary stent insertion and ENBD via duodenoscopy is an effective and safe palliative treatment for malignant bile duct obstruction.

Objective To analyze the malaria control measures and epidemic trend in Hubei Province from 1974 to 2015, so as to provide the evidence for malaria elimination path analysis. Methods The malaria control data in Hubei Province from 1974 to 2015 were collected and analyzed retrospectively by descriptive epidemiological methods. Results The epidemic pro?cess of malaria in Hubei Province was divided into four stages. From 1974 to 1979,it was high prevalence state of malaria,and the average annual incidence was 174.47/10 000. From 1980 to 1999,the main control strategies were to control the infection source and mosquitoes,and the average annual incidence was 17.30/10 000,significantly downward. From 2000 to 2009, through the surveillance of infection sources and controlling malaria outbreaks and strengthening the floating population manage?ment,the average annual incidence was 0.42/10 000. After 2010,followed by the elimination phase of malaria,the incidence continued to decline. In 2013,there was no local infection for the first time. The difference of average annual incidence among above?mentioned stages was statistically significant(χ2=1 254.36,P<0.05). Conclusions The malaria epidemic process in Hubei Provincial experienced the high epidemic stage,sharply drop stage,low incidence phase and the elimination phase. How?ever,the natural factors affecting malaria still exist. Therefore,strengthening the control of imported malaria and surveillance should be the main task in the process of eliminating malaria in the future.

Objective To understand the malaria epidemic situation in Hubei Province from 2010 to 2014,so as to provide the evidence for formulating the effective malaria elimination strategies and measures in this province. Methods The data from the Disease Reporting Information System of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention were collected and analyzed with the descriptive epidemiological method for the epidemiological characteristics of malaria in Hubei Province from 2010 to 2014. Results A total of 997 malaria cases were reported in Hubei Province from 2010 to 2014,there were 618 cases of vivax malaria,352 cases of falciparum malaria,18 cases of Plasmodium ovale infection,and 9 cases of Plasmodium malariae infec?tion. Among all the reported cases,479 were local cases and 518 were imported cases. No local malaria cases were reported from Hubei Province since 2013. The overall imported malaria cases showed a gradual increasing trend from 2010 to 2014,the pro?portion of falciparum malaria increased quite significantly from 2010 to 2014. The malaria cases were mainly distributed in Xiangyang,Wuhan,Xiaogan,Yichang,Jingmen and Suizhou cities,reaching 81.85%of the cases of the whole province. There were 810 male cases and 187 female cases,with a sex ratio of 4.33∶1. The local malaria cases were mainly aged from 40 to 69 years,accounted for 78.29%of the total local cases,and 88.22%(457/518)of the whole local cases were concentrated in 20-49 age groups. The local cases were mainly farmers(67.01%). Among the imported malaria cases,the occupation distribution concentrated mainly on the worker,migrant worker,and farmer(63.90%). Conclusions The local malaria epidemic situation has been effectively controlled in Hubei Province,which reflects the initiative achievements of malaria elimination. However, there are still many imported malaria cases from abroad. Therefore,the imported malaria from abroad still remains the key of ma?laria control in Hubei Province.

Background::Sirtuin-3 (Sirt3) has been documented to protect against mitochondrial dysfunction and apoptosis. Honokiol (HKL) is a Sirt3 pharmacological activator with reported neuroprotective effects in multiple neurological disorders. The present study aimed to explore the neuroprotective effects of HKL and the role of Sirt3 following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).Methods::An in vivo ICH model in rats was established by injecting autologous blood into the right basal ganglia. PC12 cells were stimulated with hemin. For the in vivo investigation, the modified Neurological Severity Scores and the Morris water maze test were performed to assess neurological deficits. Hematoxylin-Eosin and Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling staining were employed to evaluate the histopathology and apoptosis. Immunohistochemical staining was used to investigate the expression of Sirt3. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels were quantified to assess mitochondrial dysfunction. Cell counting kit-8, lactate dehydrogenase assay, and flow cytometry were used to analyze cell vitality and apoptosis in vitro. Immunofluorescence staining was performed to observe mitochondrial morphology and dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) localization to mitochondria. Western blot was applied to quantify the expression of Sirt3, Bax, Bcl-2, cleaved-caspase-3, Drp1, phosphorylation of Drp1 at serine-616, and phosphorylation of Drp1 at serine-637 in vivo and in vitro.Results::HKL treatment alleviated neurological deficits, attenuated the histopathological damage and cell apoptosis, and restored the decreased ATP levels in ICH rats. HKL improved cell survival rate, reduced cell apoptosis, and inhibited mitochondrial fission in PC12 cells. Moreover, both in vivo and in vitro models showed increased phosphorylation of Drp1 at Ser616, and reduced phosphorylation of Drp1 at Ser637. Meanwhile, immunofluorescence co-localization analysis revealed that hemin increased the overlap of Drp1 and mitochondria in PC12 cells. The phosphorylation and mitochondrial translocation of Drp1 were effectively reversed by HKL treatment. Importantly, the selective Sirt3 inhibitor 3-(1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl) pyridine suppressed these effects. Conclusion::Our findings demonstrated that HKL ameliorated ICH-induced apoptosis and mitochondrial fission by Sirt3, suggesting that HKL has immense prospects for the treatment of ICH.

Objective To construct a nomogram prediction model for major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)within 1 year after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 551 patients with diagnosed ACS and undergoing PCI in Department of Cardiovascular Medicine of Air Force Medical Center from 1 January 2020 to 1 April 2022.According to the occurrence of MACE during 1 year of follow-up,they were classified into MACE group(n=176)and non-MACE group(n=375).Risk factors for the occurrence of MACE in elderly ACS patients within 1 year after PCI were analysed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression,a nomogram prediction model was constructed,and the predictive power of the model was assessed using the area under the ROC curve(AUC).Results The MACE group had significantly higher Gensini score,systemic immune-inflammation index,and GRACE score,but obviously lower prognostic nutritional index than the non-MACE group(P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that recent smoking(OR=2.222,95％CI:1.361-3.628,P=0.010),hyperlipidaemia(OR=1.881,95％CI:1.145-3.089,P=0.013),prognostic nutritional index(OR=4.645,95％CI:2.788-7.739,P=0.001),LVEF(OR=5.177,95％CI:3.160-8.483,P=0.001),systemic immune-inflammation index(OR=5.396,95％CI:3.179-9.159,P=0.001),and preoperative di-agnosis of non-STEMI(OR=2.829,95％CI:1.356-5.901,P=0.006)or STEMI(OR=3.451,95％CI:1.596-7.463,P=0.002)were independent influencing factors for occurrence of MACE after PCI in elderly ACS patients.ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC value of the nomo-gram model for predicting MACE within 1 year after PCI in elderly ACS patients was 0.888.Con-clusion Our developed nomogram model is simple and practical,and can effectively predict the occurrence of MACE within 1 year after PCI in elderly ACS patients.And external validation should be carried out to ensure its generality.

To investigate the molecular mechanism of modified Yigong powder(MYG)in the treat-ment of spleen deficiency syndrome based on network pharmacology and analyzed the effect of MYG on gastrointestinal simulated intestinal flora of spleen deficiency dogs and mucosal barrier of Caco-2 cells,as well as the interaction between intestinal flora and mucosal barrier.The molecular mechanism of MYG in the treatment of spleen deficiency syndrome was predicted by network pharmacology.The fecal samples of three canines(12±1)years old with spleen deficiency were collected to establish an in vitro gastrointestinal simulation system,which was divided into the o-riginal fecal sample group,the gastrointestinal simulation group and the gastrointestinal simulation treated by MYG group.The structural changes of the flora in each group were detected by 16S rD-NA sequencing.The metabolites were extracted from the gastrointestinal simulation system trea-ted by MYG group to study its effect on LPS-induced Caco-2 cell mucosal barrier injury model.The cell experiments included the blank control group,LPS model group,modified Yigong metabolite group.The permeability of mucosal was determined by fluorescein sodium,and then relative ex-pression levels of Claudin-1,Occludin and ZO-1 mRNA were determined by qPCR.The correlation between intestinal flora and Caco-2 cell mucosal barrier index after MYG intervention was further analyzed.The results showed that MYG had 76 active ingredients and 45 potential targets for the treatment of spleen deficiency syndrome.Forty key targets were obtained through protein interac-tion analysis,34 items were obtained by GO enrichment analysis,and 16 pathways were obtained by KEGG enrichment analysis.In the gastrointestinal simulation system,compared with the gas-trointestinal simulation group,at the phylum level,the abundance of Firmicutes,Bacteroides and Actinobacteriota increased significantly(P＜0.05),and the abundance of Proteobacteria decreased significantly(P＜0.05).At the genus level,the abundance of Fusobacterium,[Ruminococcus]gna-vus group and Blautia increased significantly(P＜0.05),while the abundance of Escherichia-Shi-gella and Citrobacter decreased significantly(P＜0.05).The diversity index of intestinal flora in the gastrointestinal simulation treated by MYG group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).In cell experiments,compared with the LPS model group,the mucosal permeability of Caco-2 cells in the modified Yigong metabolite group was significantly reduced(P＜0.01),and the expression levels of Claudin-1,Occludin and ZO-1 mRNA were significantly increased(P＜0.01).Correlation analysis showed that there was a certain correlation between bacterial community structure and mucosal barrier indexes.In summary,MYG may act on 40 key targets such as TNF,IL6,IL18,CX-CL8 and AKT1 through 76 active ingredients such as quercetin,arachidonic acid and naringin,and treat spleen deficiency syndrome in dogs through 16 signaling pathways such as AGE-RAGE,FoxO and HIF-l.In addition,the gastrointestinal metabolites of MYG up-regulate tight junction protein mRNA expression,reduce mucosal permeability,and repair mucosal barrier,which may be related to MYG's regulation of flora structure.
