Objective To investigate the whole genomic expression profiles of chronic atrophic gastritis with interleukin(IL)-1β-31CC/-511TT genotype as measured by oligonucleotide microarray technique.Methods Genomic RNA was extracted from gastric biopsies of 12 patients with chronic atrophic gastritis(6 with IL-1β-31CC/-511TT and 6 with IL-1β-31TT/-511CC).The genomic profiles of IL-1β gene polymorphisms 31CC/-511TT and 31TT/-511CC were compared and tested for differential expressed genes associated with 31CC/-511TT using Agilent human whole genomic oligonucleotide microarrays.The results were further analyzed in terms of gene ontology(GO).Results There were 200 differentially expressed genes associated with IL-1β-31CC/-511TT,159 of which were up-regulated and 41 were down-regulated.These genes mainly involved in macromolecule metabolic process,post-translational protein modification,ubiquitin cycle,and protein kinase cascade.Five genes had biological activities,one of which was down-regulated gene(PCSK5)and 4 were upregulated genes(PRKCA,NPLOC4,TRIB3 and MAPKAPK3).Conclusions The chronic atrophic gastritis with IL-1β-31CC/-511TT genotype has molecular phenotypes which is associated with malignance and inflammation.These individuals are needed more intensive preemptive treatment and dynamic surveillance.

Objective: To study the effects of CTGF on the periodontal tissue remolding during orthodontic tooth movement. Methods: A mouse model of orthodontic tooth movement was established. The CTGF and NS were injected into the periodontal tissue of the first molar. HE staining, immunohistochemical staining and automatic image analysis system were used to detect the changes of periodontal tissue and the expression of VEGF. Results: The periodontal tissue remolding accompanied the over expression of VEGF during the orthodontic tooth movement. At day 7, the remolding was most active and the expression of VEGF was the highest. CTGF injection induced acceleration of periodontal remolding and up-regulating the expression of VEGF during orthodontic tooth movement, especially at day 7 and day 15 after the orthodontic force were applied. Conclusion: In the mouse model of orthodontic tooth movement, periodontal CTGF injection induces over expression of VEGF and accelerates the periodontal remodeling during orthodontic tooth movement.

Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) method has been widely applied to the ill-posed problem of image reconstruction. The choice of prior is the crucial point on MAP methods. However, the most conventional priors will lead to a blurring of the whole image or cause ladder-like artifacts. We therefore proposed a Tsallis entropy-based prior for positron emission tomography (PET) iterative reconstruction in MAP framework. The method uses a Tsallis entropy-based prior to eliminate the uncertainty between prior information and the estimated images. We tested this method in the phantom image, compared it with the traditional prior methods. the results showed that the proposed algorithm could suppress noise and obtain better reconstructed image quality.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of transvaginal acupoint injection in the treatment of chronic pelvic pain induced by pelvic floor myofascitis. Methods All 80 patients with pelvic floor myofascitis were randomly assigned to an observation group and a control group, with 40 patients in each group. The observation group was given the treatment of transvaginal pain spot injection, and the control group was given transvaginal non-pain spot injection. Changes of clinical symptoms, signs, pain scores and other indices before the treatment, 1 week and 2 weeks after the treatment between the two groups of patients were observed and compared. Results Comparison of pain scores between the treatment group and the control group before the treatment was not significantly different (P>0.05); pain scores after the treatment in the two groups were significantly lower compared to those before the treatment, and the differences in the two groups were both significant (P<0.01). The curative effects in the treatment group were better than those in the control group (P<0.01). Conclusion Transvaginal acupoint injection is able to significantly alleviate chronic pelvic pain induced by pelvic floor myofascitis, but accurate pain spot injection is required.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of pentoxifylline sequential therapy combined with rasagiline and levodopa in the treatment of elderly patients with symptoms of Parkinson disease (PD), and the influence on hemorheology and serum Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) signaling pathway downstream related inflammatory factors.Methods:A prospective study method was used to select 90 elderly patients with PD with fluctuating symptoms who were admitted to the Eighth People′s Hospital of Hebei Province from June 2021 to October 2022 as research objects. The patients were divided into observation group and control group with 45 cases in each group according to random number table method. The observation group was treated with pentoxifylline sequential therapy combined with rasagiline and levodopa. The control group was treated with rasagiline combined with levodopa. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was compared. The unified Parkinson disease rating scale (UPDRS), Montreal cognitive assessment scale (MoCA), Berg balance scale (BBS) and 39-item Parkinson disease quality of life questionnaire (PDQ-39) were scored before and after treatment. Hemorheology indexes and serum levels of related inflammatory factors downstream of TLR4 signaling pathway, including whole blood high viscosity (HBV), whole blood low shear viscosity (LBV), plasma viscosity (PV), fibrinogen (FIB); TLR4, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor (TNF) -α, were detected before and after treatment in both groups. The adverse reactions of the two groups were compared.Results:The total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group: 93.33% (42/45) vs. 77.78% (35/45), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). After treatment, the UPDRS mental activity and emotional disorders, daily living ability, motor function, motor complications scores and PDQ-39 score of the two groups were significantly lower than before treatment, the MoCA and BBS scores were significantly higher than before treatment, and the improvement was more significant in the observation group, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). After treatment, HBV, LBV, PV and FIB in the observation group were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment: (6.52 ± 0.92) mPa·s vs. (7.25 ± 1.24) mPa·s, (11.45 ± 1.24) mPa·s vs. (14.13 ± 1.64) mPa·s, (1.55 ± 0.17) mPa·s vs. (1.88 ± 0.22) mPa·s, (3.25 ± 0.47) g/L vs. (3.82 ± 0.52) g/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in hemorheology indexes of control group before and after treatment ( P>0.05). After treatment, serum levels of TLR4, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in both groups were significantly decreased compared with those before treatment, and the indexes in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group: (2.07 ± 0.18) ng/L vs. (2.58 ± 0.21) ng/L, (1.42 ± 0.17) ng/L vs. (2.28 ± 0.25) ng/L, (1.56 ± 0.22) ng/L vs. (2.42 ± 0.28) ng/L, (46.31 ± 3.17) ng/L vs. (54.34 ± 3.65) ng/L, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Pentoxifylline sequential therapy combined with rasagiline and levodopa can effectively improve the hemorheology of elderly patients with PD accompanied by symptom fluctuations, reduce the levels of related inflammatory factors downstream of serum TLR4 signaling pathway, and improve clinical efficacy.
