Background and purpose: miR-210 was closely related to the occurrence and development of gastric cancer, but its mechanism and clinical significance were still not clear. The purpose of this study was to explore the expression of miR-210 in gastric cancer tissues and its clinical significance. Methods: The expression of miR-210 was detected in gastric cancer tissues and the corresponding adjacent tissues. The relationship between the expression of miR-210 and clinical pathological factors and prognosis was analyzed. Results: Real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTFQ-PCR) showed that the expression of miR-210 in gastric cancer was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). The expression of miR-210 was closely related to tumor size, lymph node metastasis and TNM stage, but was not related to age, gender, tumor dif-ferentiation and depth of invasion. The 5-year survival rate of patients with low miR-210 expression was 48.2%, where-as the 5-year survival rate of patients with high miR-210 expression was 30.4% (χ2=4.216, P=0.040). Conclusion: The expression of miR-210 in gastric cancer was higher than that in adjacent tissues, and maybe related to the development and prognosis of gastric cancer. miR-210 is expected to be a new diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for gastric cancer.

Cervical adenosarcoma is a very rare type of Mullerian adenosarcoma and it is easily confused with benign polyps, therefore, differential diagnosis is necessary. The primary clinical symptoms are vaginal abnormal bleeding and abdominal pain, which can be prevented through the study of high-risk factors. Surgery excision has been considered as the main treatment at present. Due to the low incidence of cervical adenosarcoma, its etiology, pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment need to be discussed further. This paper reviews the diagnosis and treatment progress of cervical adenosarcoma.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of Tuina (Chinese therapeutic massage) manipulation plus horse-riding squat exercise in treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and optimize the combining protocol. Methods: Based on a 2×2 factorial design, 120 eligible KOA patients were randomized into a manipulation group (group A1B2), a manipulation plus horse-riding squat group (group A1B1), a sitting knee-adjustment group (group A2B2 group), and a sitting knee-adjustment plus horse-riding squat group (group A2B1), with 30 cases in each group. The intervention was conducted three times a week, lasting for four weeks. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities osteoarthritis index (WOMAC) was taken as the major measure for efficacy evaluation (including three component scores, pain, stiffness, and daily function, and total score). Results: The three component scores (pain, stiffness, and daily function) and the total score of WOMAC showed significant differences after the intervention in the four groups (P<0.05). There were significant inter-group differences in the WOMAC stiffness score amongst the four groups after the intervention (P<0.05). In group A1B1, the step length, stride, walking speed, and knee joint flexion angle changed significantly after treatment (P<0.05). After the intervention, the step length changed significantly in group A1B2 (P<0.05), and the walking speed changed significantly in group A2B1 (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the step length, stride, walking speed, or knee joint flexion angle among the four groups (P>0.05). The extensor peak torque at 180 °/s changed significantly in group A1B2 after treatment (P<0.05). Neither the intra-group nor the inter-group comparisons of the four groups revealed significant differences in the other isokinetic muscle strength parameters (P>0.05). The main effect of manipulation showed significant in affecting the WOMAC pain and total scores (P<0.05). The main effect of horse-riding squat exercise showed significant in affecting the WOMAC pain and stiffness scores (P<0.05). Conclusion: The four treatment protocols all can improve the symptoms of KOA, for instance, relieving pain and stiffness, and enhancing daily function. Group A2B1 produces the most eminent effect in relieving joint stiffness. The main effects of both manipulation and horse-riding squat exercise are significant in reducing pain. Besides, the main effect of horse-riding squat exercise is significant in relieving joint stiffness.

Objective:To investigate the clinical, muscle biopsy and gene mutation characteristics of nemaline myopathy caused by the NEB gene variants.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical manifestations, auxiliary examinations, muscle biopsies and genetic analysis of 3 nemaline myopathy patients carrying NEB gene mutations diagnosed in the Neuromuscular Pathology Laboratory of Qilu Hospital of Shandong University during 2019-2021 was done. And the related literature was reviewed.Results:All of the 3 patients were congenital onset. The onset symptoms of the 3 patients were weakness of bilateral lower limbs. Physical examinations showed high palatine arches and long narrow faces. Electromyography showed myogenic impairment. Muscle biopsies of the 3 patients revealed myodystrophic changes and nemaline bodies. The ATPase staining of patient 1 showed the predominance and grouping of type 1 muscle fibers. Genetic tests revealed patient 1 carried c.21522+3A>G and c.3471dupC (p.N1158Qfs *5) mutations in the NEB gene, patient 2 carried c.21522+3A>G and c.18991_18992delAG (p.Q6332Afs *8) compound heterozygous mutations and patient 3 carried c.21522+3A>G and c.3448A>T (p.K1150 *) compound heterozygous mutations. All the 3 patients carried the c.21522+3A>G mutation in the NEB gene, which had only been reported in Chinese population. The c.3471dupC (p.N1158Qfs *5), c.18991_18992delAG (p.Q6332Afs *8) and c.3448A>T (p.K1150 *) mutations have not been reported yet. According to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guideline, c.21522+3A>G, c.3471dupC (p.N1158Qfs *5), c.3448A>T (p.K1150 *) and c.18991_18992delAG (p.Q6332Afs *8) mutations were all rated pathogenic. Conclusions:The onset age and clinical symptoms of nemaline myopathy are heterogeneous. Muscle biopsy and genetic analysis are important for diagnosis of nemaline myopathy. The c.21522+3A>G mutation in the NEB gene may be more common in Chinese population.
