ObjectiveTo investigate the role of active protein C (APC) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced microglia activation.MethodsMicroglia from one day old Sprague-Dawley newborn rat was collected, purified and identified by primary culture and immunofluorescence staining, and then was randomly divided into four groups including LPS group (1.0μg/ml LPS plus 10μl phosphate buffered saline 12 h later), LPS+ APC group (1.0μg/ml LPS plus 0.1μg/ml APC 12 h later), APC group (10μl phosphate buffered saline plus 0.1μg/ml APC 12 h later) and control group (10μl phosphate buffered saline at each time point). The morphology of micaroglia in all groups was observed under microscope, and the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) were determined by immunofluorescence staining. One-way analysis of variance and LSD test were applied for statistical analysis.ResultsPrimary culture microglia was successful and the purity was no less than 99%. In LPS group, the microglia morphology was activated, and the expression of TNF-α was increased significantly than the control group (2.11±0.35 vs 1.38±0.28, LSD test,P=0.002). In LPS+APC group, the microglia morphological change was reversed, and the expression of TNF-α had no significant difference with the control group (1.35±0.36 vs 1.38±0.28, LSD test,P>0.05). The expression of PAR-1 in LPS+APC group was higher comparing with that in the control group (4.60±0.84 vs 2.64±0.41, LSD test,P=0.008) and the LPS group (2.44±0.86, LSD test,P=0.002). The expression of PAR-1 in APC group and LPS group had no obvious difference with control group (2.62±0.69, 2.44±0.86 vs 2.64±0.41, LSD test, bothP>0.05).ConclusionsBy increasing the level of PAR-1 in microglia, active protein C could inhibit the activation of miciroglia and the expression of TNF-α induced by lipopolysaccharide, therefore, protecting the brain tissues from inflammation-induced damage.

Objective To establish the chronic low flow myocardial hibernation animal model in pigs, and to assess the diagnostic value for myocardial hibernation by using various imaging methods. Methods A total of 13 miniswine (30-40 kg) were used. All animals underwent general anesthesia and orotracheal intubation while the animals were mechanically ventilated. Under sterile conditions, left ventriculography and coronary angiography were performed by introduction of catheter into the right femoral artery. Further, a left anterolateral thoracotomy was performed in the third intercostal space. The proximal LCX was dissected free to allow placement of an ameroid constrictor. More than 1 month later, left ventriculography and coronary angiography were performed again, followed by cine MRI at rest and during stress with low dose of dobutamine (5 ?g?kg -1 ?min -1 ), respectively. Traditional and/or breath hold cine MRI were used to evaluate regional left ventricular wall motion, corresponding to basal, midventricular and apical short axis tomograms. Regional wall motion score index (WMSI) was calculated. At the same time 99m Tc MIBI myocardial SPECT was performed at rest and during nitroglycerin administration, respectively. All animals were finally sacrificed for pathological examination. Triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining was used to assess the myocardial infarction. Electron microscopy was used to identify myocardial cellular changes characteristic of hibernating myocardium. Results Three pigs died during surgery or within two weeks after surgery. One pig died of anesthesia during SPECT examination, 1 pig suffered from aneurysm, and another one pig showed negative findings. The other 7 pigs were found with hypokinetic ( n =4) or akinetic ( n =3) myocardial regions related to stenosed LCX (70%-99%). Resting cine MRI demonstrated decreased regional motion of the lateral and posteroinferior walls (ischemic regions) of the left ventricle ( n =7), compared with the nonischemic anteroseptal regions; but the low dose dobutamine (5 ?g?kg -1 ?min -1 ) could recover those hypokinetic or akinetic myocardial regions, characteristic of hibernating myocardium. Resting 99m Tc MIBI myocardial SPECT ( n =6) showed a fixed perfusion defect on the corresponding ischemic areas, which became reversible on the nitrate augmented myocardial perfusion imaging. It also indicated myocardial viability presented at the ischemic areas. TTC staining revealed patchy infarction of the area at risk localized to the endocardial surface ( n =3), and no myocardial infarction ( n =4). Electron microscopy of sections from the hibernating regions revealed loss of contractile materials, increased numbers of small mitochondria, and glycogen accumulation within viable cardiomyocytes, which had been described as hallmarks of hibernating myocardium. Conclusion Chronic low flow myocardial hibernation can be reproduced in an animal model during progressive coronary stenosis caused by ameroid constrictor.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of children with osteomyelitis caused by Streptococcus pneumonia. Methods:The demographic characteristics, diagnosis, clinical manifestations, imaging features, treatment and short-term prognosis of Streptococcus pneumonia osteomyelitis cases in 18 children′s hospitals from January 2012 to December 2017 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Results:A total of 9 cases were enrolled, with a median age of 1 year and 3 months.Four children had underlying diseases.The main manifestations were local swelling, pain, limited mobility (9 cases) and fever (8 cases). Sites of infection included humerus (4 cases), femur (3 cases) and tibiofibula (2 cases), and 8 cases were complicated with septic arthritis; The laboratory tests showed increased white blood cells (8 cases, median 22.02×10 9/L), C-reactive protein (7 cases, median 55.44 mg/L) and erythrocyte sedimentation rate (6 cases, median 70 mm/1 h) of those patients.Five patients received monotherapy in the initial treatment regimen with cephalosporins. Then the therapeutic schedules were adjusted according to the culture and antibiotic sensitivity. All patients were treated with puncture, incision drainage or fenestrating decompression.Eight patients were cured and discharged finally. Conclusions:Streptococcus pneumonia osteomyelitis is more common in younger children and may have no risk factors.The common infection site is long bone metaphysis, and those patients are easily complicated with septic arthritis.Antibiotic combined with surgical treatment are crucial to a good outcome.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of extracting the key plane of the normal fetal palate on the 11-13 + 6 week from tomography ultrasonography imaging based on artificial intelligence. Methods:The fetal volume datas of 235 cases of 11-13 + 6 week normal fetal were collected from the Department of Ultrasound in the Luohu District People′s Hospital of Shenzhen and Huazhong University of Science and Technology Union Shenzhen Hospital from May 2020 to April 2021. The data acquisition was completed by sonographers A and B by using the GE Voluson E10 color Doppler ultrasound diagnostic instrument. All datas were marked offline by sonographer C. Tomographic imaging was performed on all included data by sonographer D, the tomographic images were saved and the time-consuming was recorded, and the datas of the sonographer group were obtained. The labeled data were randomly divided into the training set and test set for model transfer learning and testing.The 4-fold cross-validation was adopted to record the test set image output by the model and the time consumption to obtain the intelligent group data. A senior sonographer performed image analysis on the two groups of data images. The feasibility of the intelligent model was verified by comparing the score of the plane of retronasal triangle(RTP), the acquisition rate of RTP, the acquisition rate of the fault, and the time-consuming difference between the sonographer group and the intelligent group. Results:①There was no significant difference in the overall distribution of RTP scores between the sonographer group and intelligent group [5 (5, 6) points vs 5 (5, 6) points, Z=0.355, P=0.722]. The RTP acquisition rate of the sonographer group and intelligent group was not statistically significant (78.72% vs 76.60%, χ 2=0.55, P=0.458). The consistency and correlation of RTP obtained by the two groups were high (Kappa=0.645, φ=0.646, both P<0.001). ②The effective layers of the sonographer group were 9 (8, 9) and the intelligent group was 8 (7, 9). The fault acquisition rate of the doctor group was higher than that of the intelligent group (78.72% vs 68.51%, χ 2=12.52, P=0.001). The consistency and correlation of the two groups in obtaining faults were media (Kappa=0.503, φ=0.521, both P<0.001). ③The time-consuming of the intelligent group was significantly lower than that of the sonographer group [1.50 (1.23, 1.75)s vs 26.94 (22.28, 30.48)s, Z=11.440, P<0.001]. Conclusions:This research model can quickly and accurately realize the extraction and tomography of the key plane of the normal fetal palate on the 11-13 + 6 week.

Objective:
In view of the difficulty of the shortage of new coronavirus nucleal acid test in the early COVID-19 outbreak, to explore the application value of chest CT in screening COVID-19 patients.
Methods:
Retrospective analysis was performed on the data of patients with fever who received chest CT and new coronavirus nucleal acid test during January 25, 2020 to February 2, 2020 in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University. A total of 587 patients were enrolled, including 290 males and 297 females, aged from 11.0 to 96.0 (51.3±17.1) years old. Take the nucleic acid test results as the gold standard, the sensitivity, specificity and rate of missed diagnosis of CT screening COVID-19 were calculated.
Results:
Among the 587 patients, there were 433 positive cases (73.8%, 433/587) and 154 negative cases (26.2%, 154/587) of novel coronavirus nucleic acid test. Using CT screening, 494 cases (84.2%, 494/587) were positive and 93 cases (15.8%, 93/587) were negative. The sensitivity of CT screening COVID-19 was 97.7% (423/433), specificity was 53.9% (83/154) and rate of missed diagnosis was 2.3% (10/433).
Conclusions
In the early COVID-19 outbreak, CT screening has the advantages of high sensitivity and low rate of missed diagnosis of COVID-19, which can compensate for the shortage of new coronavirus nucleal acid test and can be used as the basis for rapid screening for early prevention and control of COVID-19 outbreak.
