Objective To investigate the effect of preptin on proliferation and differentiation of human osteoblasts. Methods After human osteoblasts were incubated with 10-10, 10-9, 10-8 , 10-7 mol/L preptin for 24 h,the proliferation of osteoblasts was determined by[3H]thymidine incorporation and alkaline phosphatase (ALP)activity was assayed by spectrophotometric measurement. The phosphorylation levels of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase ( MAPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1/2 were assayed by Western blot. ERK inhibitor PD98059, p38MAPK inhibitor SB203580, and JNK inhibitor SP600125were used for investigating the signal pathway of preptin-stimulated osteoblast proliferation and differentiation.Results Preptin dose-dependently increased human proliferation of osteoblasts and ALP activity with the maximum effect at the concentration of l0-9 mol/L (both P<0.01 ). Preptin stimulated ERK phosphorylation in human osteoblasts, but not p38 MAPK and JNK phosphorylation. PD98059 blocked preptin-sitmulated human osteoblasts proliferation and ALP activity (both P<0.05 ), while SB203580 and SP600125 had no effect. Conclusions Preptin promotes the proliferation and differentiation of human osteoblasts through ERK pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechnism of preptin on connect tissue growth factor (CTGF) in human osteoblasts. Methods Recombinant human preptin was used to treat primary human osteoblasts, and Western blot was used to detect CTGF protein level. Mitogen-activated protein kinase p38(p38MAPK), extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2), c-jun N-terminal Kinase (JNK), and their phosphorylation levels were also detected by Western blot. MAPK inhibitors (PD98059, SP600125, or SB203580)were used to elucidate the mechnism of preptin induced expression of CTGF in human osteoblasts. Results Treatment of human osteoblasts with preptin caused a time and dose-dependent increase in CTGF secretion. Preptin induced activation of ERK, but not p38MAPK or JNK in human osteoblasts. Furhermore, pretreatment of human osteoblasts with the ERK inhibitor PD98059 abolished the preptin-induced CTGF secretion. Conclusion Preptin induces CTGF expression in human osteoblasts by means of ERK/MAPK pathway.

Objective To explore the predictive capability of different methods for difficult la-ryngoscopy and analyze its optimal cutoff value.Methods Three hundred consecutive patients (aged 18-65 years,weighing 42-88 kg,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ)scheduled to undergo general anesthe-sia and surgery were invited to participate.Difficult airway assessments were performed by thyromen-tal height (TMH),thyromental distance (TMD),sternomental distance (SMD),modified Mallam-pati test (MMT)and ratio of height and TMD (RHTMD)before anesthetic induction.Cormack-Le-hane (C-L)grade of laryngoscopy view was assessed after induction.Sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value (PPV),negative predictive value (NPV)and accuracy of these tests were calculated. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC)curve of TMH was performed to determine the optimal cutoff value of TMH.Results There were 22 patients diagnosed as difficult airway.Sensitivity,specificity, PPV,NPV and accuracy of TMH were higher than those of TMD,SMD and MMT tests.Sensitivity of RHTMD was lower than that of TMH test,and specificity,PPV,NPV and accuracy of RHTMD were similar to that of TMH.The optimal cutoff value of TMH was 4.9 cm through ROC curve. Conclusion The optimal cutoff value of TMH detecting difficult laryngoscopy was 4.9 cm.Similar to RHTMD,TMH appears to be more effective for prediction of difficult laryngoscopy than TMD, SMD and MMT.

Multiple rib fracture is a common chest injury that can cause severe pain and seriously affect life quality of the patients. The traditional pulmonary function test can only assess changes in total lung volume and ventilation of the multiple rib fracture, but fails to reveal regional ventilation status in rib fracture area and ventilation differences within the whole lung. Instead, pulmonary electrical impedance tomography (EIT), as a novel bedside technique for ventilation monitoring, has advantages of non-invasiveness, non-use of radiative rays and dynamic visualization of regional ventilation, enabling to quantify ventilation defects and heterogeneity in space and time. Starting with the assessment of ventilation changes and research status of ventilation function in multiple rib fracture and the characteristics of EIT, the authors review the research progress in the evaluation of ventilation function following multiple rib fracture based on EIT, with the aim to provide new insight into the research on ventilation changes after multiple rib fracture.

Objective:To investigate the effect of glabridin on neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation and pyroptosis in rats with sepsis-induced lung injury.Methods:Twenty-four male Wistar rats were divided into three groups according to the random number table method. The sepsis group was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The Glabridin group underwent CLP and glabridin gavage (30 mg/kg)(CLP+GLA). The sham operation group underwent cecal exploration, and only the abdomen was closed after cecal turning(Sham). After 12 hours, plasma、alveolar lavage fluid and lung tissue samples were taken for detection . Then, protein content of the alveolar lavage fluid was determined; The wet/dry weight(W/D) ratio of the lung tissue was determined; The pathological changes in lung tissue were observed after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The levels of NETs marker MPO-DNA complex and related inflammatory factors IL-18 and IL-1β in plasma were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The changes of Caspase-1and Cleaved-caspase-1 protein in lung tissue were detected by Western blot.Results:The total protein concentration of alveolar lavage fluid was significantly higher in the sepsis group compared with the Sham group ( P<0.01), and it decreased in the glabridin group compared with the sepsis group ( P<0. 05). Significant aggravation of pulmonary edema in the sepsis group, and the glabridin group reduced pulmonary edema compared with the sepsis group.The pathological results of lung tissue under the light microscope showed: The structure of lung tissue in the Sham group was normal, and the alveoli were clear; In the sepsis group, the alveolar wall was thickened widely and inflammatory cells infiltrated obviously; Compared with the sepsis group, the lung tissue injury was significantly reduced in the light licorice group. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay results showed that the levels of NETs marker MPO-DNA complex and inflammatory factors IL-18 and IL-1β in the plasma of the sepsis group were significantly higher than those in the Sham group ( P<0.001). The levels of NETs marker MPO-DNA complex and inflammatory factors IL-18 and IL-1β in the glabridin group were significantly lower than those in the sepsis group (MPO-DNA: P<0. 01; IL-18、IL-1β: P<0.05) . Western blot Technical results showed that the expression of Caspase-1 and Cleaved-caspase-1 protein positive signal was significantly enhanced in the lung tissue of the rats in the sepsis group compared with the Sham group; the distribution of Caspase-1 positive cells in the lung tissue of the sepsis + glabridin group was similar to that of the Sham group, and the expression of Cleaved-caspase-1 positive signal was higher than that of the Sham group. Conclusions:Glabridin can effectively reduce lung inflammation and play a protective role in lung injury in septic rats by inhibiting NETs production and pyroptosis.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum C-X-C motif ligand 13 (CXCL13) concentration in senior patients undergoing total hip replacement and its role in post-operative dys-function(POCD).Methods Eighty consecutive senior patients aged 65-80 years with BMI 18.4-27.3 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,were recruited and scheduled to undergo hip joint replacement operation.Neuropsychological test was performed 1-5 d after operation and patients were divided into POCD group and non-POCD group.Serum C reactive protein (CPR),procalcitonin (PCT),IL-6, TNF-α,CXCL13 concentration were detected 1 d before and 1,2,3,4,5 d after operation. Results A total of 21 (26%)patients developed POCD 1-5 d after operation (recruited in POCD group),and the other 59 patients were recruited in non-POCD group.Compared with the time point of 1 d before operation,serum CRP,PCT,IL-6,TNF-αand CXCL13 concentration were higher 1-5 d after operation in all patients (P<0.05).The concentrationsof these factors were higher in patients from POCD group than in those from non-POCD group 1-5 d after operation (P < 0.05). Conclusion The CXCL13 concentration insenior patients undergoing total hip replacement who devel-oped POCD were higher than in those who did not developed POCD.Whether it is correlated with POCD remains further study.

Objective To explore the drug resistance mechanism and characteristics of carbopenem-resistant pseudo-monas aeruginosa(CRPA)in our hospital.Methods BD phoenix 100 automatic bacterial identification and drug sensitivity an-alyzer was used to identify and detect the drug sensitivity of the strains.The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)of ceftazi-dime/acibactam was detected by micro broth dilution method.The modified carbapenem inactivation method(mCIM)and colloi-dal gold immunochromatography were used to detect the carbapenemase phenotype of the strains.The whole genome sequencing was used to detect the carbapenemase resistance gene and ST typing of the screened positive strains.Results A total of 22 strains of clinically isolated CRPA were collected,of which the antibacterial drugs with the lowest resistance rate were ceftidine/avibatan(22.7% ),followed by gentamicin and amikacin(27.3% ),pyracillin/tazobactam(59.09% ),cefuroxime(63.6% ).Ceftazide and aminotransferrane(77.27% ),ciprofloxacin(86.36% ),levofloxacin(95.45% ).There are a total of 5 strains(22.7% )of carbapenems in 22 CRPA by phenotypic detection.The whole genome sequencing results show that 4 strains of ST549 CRPA carry metal β-lactamase IMP-45 and serine β-lactamase OXA-1,OXA-50,one strain is ST245 CRPA carries metal β-lactamase NDM-1,that is,all five CRPA strains produce metal β-lactamase.Conclusion The resistance rate of CRPA to ceftazidime/avibactam is low in our hospital.Carbapenemase-producing is not the main mechanism of CRPA resistance to car-bapenems,while metal β-Lactamase-producing is the main mechanism of CRPA resistance to ceftazidime avibactam.
