ObjectiveTo investigate the relation of learning and memory with the expression of postsynaptic density 95 (PSD-95) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) rats in Morris water maze.Methods Forty adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to the TBI group and control group.The TBI group was produced using the impact acceleration injury model.Morris water maze memory paradigm was used to assess the learning and memory function in both groups one week after injury.Protein electro-phoresis was used to observe the expression of PSD-95 1,3,7 d after TBI.ResultsCompared with the control group,the TBI group showed a longer latency in the Morris water maze after one week,significantly longer than the latency in the first three days after TBI.The quantification of PSD-95 in the hippocampus was gradually reduced at one week after TBI ( P ＜ 0.01 ).ConclusionTBI may decrease expression of PSD-95 in the hippocampus of the rats,as may be one of the mechanisms for impairments of learning and memory of rats.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of minimally invasive anterior column screw placement assisted by orthopedic robot with anterior subcutaneous internal fixation (INFIX) in the treatment of unstable pelvic fracture.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze 42 patients (25 males and 17 females; aged 16-68 years [(41.8±3.2)years] with unstable pelvic fracture admitted to Guizhou Provincial People′s Hospital from June 2018 to December 2021. Anterior column screw group ( n=22) received orthopedic robot-assisted anterior column screw fixation of anterior pelvic ring fracture, and INFIX group ( n=20) received subcutaneous INFIX of anterior pelvic ring fracture. Posterior pelvic ring injuries were treated with closed reduction and percutaneous sacroiliac screw internal fixation. The operation time of anterior pelvic ring fixation, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative fluoroscopy times, off-bed activity time when the visual analogue scale (VAS) was<3 points during weight-bearing and fracture healing time were compared between the two groups. The quality of pelvic fracture reduction was assessed according to the Matta scoring criteria at 2 days after surgery. The Majeed functional score was used to assess the functional status at the last follow-up. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were observed in both groups. Results:All patients were followed up for 6-24 months [(11.3±0.5)months].The operation time of anterior pelvic ring fixation was (33.4±2.6)minutes in anterior column screw group and (30.2±2.9)minutes in INFIX group ( P>0.05). The intraoperative blood loss was (15.9±3.1)ml in anterior column screw group and (41.4±6.2)ml in INFIX group ( P<0.01). The intraoperative fluoroscopy times were 12.2±2.4 in anterior column screw group and 14.7±2.5 in INFIX group ( P>0.05). The off-bed activity time was (3.2±0.4) weeks in anterior column screw group and (6.6±1.2)weeks in INFIX group ( P<0.01). The fracture healing time was (12.7±1.4)weeks in anterior column screw group and (16.2±1.9) weeks in INFIX group ( P<0.01). According to Matta scoring criteria, the excellent and good rate of posterior pelvic ring reduction quality was 100% in both groups, while the excellent and good rate of the quality of anterior pelvic ring reduction was 100% (excellent in 16 patients and good in 6) in anterior column screw group compared with 90.0% (excellent in 11 patients, good in 7, and fair in 2) in INFIX group ( P<0.05). During the final follow-up, the excellent and good rate of Majeed functional score was 90.9% (excellent in 16 patients, good in 4 and fair in 2) in anterior column screw group, significantly different from 80.0% (excellent in 10 patients, good in 6 and fair in 4) in INFIX group ( P<0.05). During the operation, no important tissue injuries such as blood vessels, nerves or spermatic cord occurred in either group. In anterior column screw group, no postoperative complications such as infection, spermatic cord injury or implant breakage occurred; in INFIX group, there were 2 patients with incision fat liquefaction, 4 with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve symptoms and 1 with heterotopic ossification, without the occurrence of implant breakage. Conclusion:Compared with anterior subcutaneous INFIX, orthopedic robot-assisted anterior column screw internal fixation for the treatment of unstable pelvic fracture has advantages of less bleeding, earlier tambulation, faster fracture healing, better fracture reduction quality, more satisfied postoperative functional recovery, and fewer complications.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of Fluorouracil implants on intraperitoneal chemotherapy safety of advanced gastric cancer patients. METHODS:The information of 264 patients with advanced gastric cancer were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were given Fluorouracil implants 800 mg,scattered into the mesenteric and surgical area,dose of each implantation site less than 200 mg,the distance of implantation range from incision and anastomosis more than 3 cm. All patients were given second generation cephalosporin 30 min before operation,at 3rd h during operation,1-3 d after operation. The occurrence of complications and ADR during hospitalization were observed after operation. RESULTS:After operation,6 patients suffered from complications, with incidence of 2.28%,including 3 cases of gastrointestinal reaction,2 cases of anastomotic bleeding and 1 case of anastomotic leakage. Routine blood test and liver and kidney function were rechecked 3 d after operation,mainly thrombocytopenia and liver function injury,with the incidence of 2.65%. CONCLUSIONS:Fluorouracil implants can be used for intraperitoneal chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer patients. However,attention should be paid to thrombocytopenia and liver function injury.

Objective:To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CALCOCO1 in bladder cancer tissue and its effect on the proliferation and migration of bladder cancer cells by regulating miR-200a-3p.Methods:The relative expression levels of CALCOCO1 in bladder cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were analyzed by TCGA database. Human bladder cancer cells UM-UC-3 were selected, and the cells were divided into negative control group and CALCOCO1 group, and NC plasmid and CALCOCO1 plasmid were transfected into UM-UC-3 cells respectively. The expression level of CALCOCO1 in each group was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The proliferation and migration ability of UM-UC-3 cells were detected by MTT assay and Transwell migration assay. Bioinformatics technology was used to predict and dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments to verify the targeting relationship between CALCOCO1 and miR-200a-3p. The expression levels of miR-200a-3p in UM-UC-3 cells in each group were detected by qRT-PCR. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of UM-UC-3 cells proliferation and migration phenotype in each group. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and repeated measurement analysis of variance was used for comparison at different time. Results:Compared with adjacent tissues, the relative expression level of CALCOCO1 in bladder cancer tissues was significantly lower, the difference was statistically significant( P<0.01). The relative expression of CALCOCO1 in UM-UC-3 cells in CALCOCO1 group and negative control group was 9.66±2.51 and 1.07±0.59, respectively. The relative expression level of CALCOCO1 in CALCOCO1 group was significantly higher than that in negative control group, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Compared with the negative control group, the proliferation activity of UM-UC-3 cells in the CALCOCO1 group was decreased ( P<0.05), and the migration number of UM-UC-3 cells was significantly decreased ( P<0.01). CALCOCO1 had a binding site with miR-200a-3p ( P<0.01). The relative expression of miR-200a-3p in UM-UC-3 cells in CALCOCO1 group and negative control group was 1.02 ± 0.31 and 5.79 ± 1.68, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Compared with the negative control group, the expression levels of proliferation phenotype proteins CCNB1, CCNE1 and CCND2 in UM-UC-3 cells in CALCOCO1 group decreased, and the expression levels of migration phenotype proteins FOXC2 and Fibronectin decreased. Conclusion:The expression of CALCOCO1 is down-regulated in bladder cancer tissue, promoting the expression of CALCOCO1 can inhibit the proliferation and migration of bladder cancer UM-UC-3 cells through targeted down-regulation of miR-200a-3p expression.

Magnesium-doped calcium silicate(CS)bioceramic scaffolds have unique advantages in mandibular defect repair;however,they lack antibacterial properties to cope with the complex oral microbiome.Herein,for the first time,the CS scaffold was functionally modified with a novel copper-containing polydopamine(PDA(Cu2+))rapid deposition method,to construct internally modified(*P),externally modified(@PDA),and dually modified(*P@PDA)scaffolds.The morphology,degradation behavior,and mechanical properties of the obtained scaffolds were evaluated in vitro.The results showed that the CS*P@PDA had a unique micro-/nano-structural surface and appreciable mechanical resistance.During the prolonged immersion stage,the release of copper ions from the CS*P@PDA scaffolds was rapid in the early stage and exhibited long-term sustained release.The in vitro evaluation revealed that the release behavior of copper ions ascribed an excellent antibacterial effect to the CS*P@PDA,while the scaffolds retained good cytocompatibility with improved osteogenesis and angiogenesis effects.Finally,the PDA(Cu2+)-modified scaffolds showed effective early bone regeneration in a critical-size rabbit mandibular defect model.Overall,it was indicated that considerable antibacterial property along with the enhancement of alveolar bone regeneration can be imparted to the scaffold by the two-step PDA(Cu2+)modification,and the convenience and wide applicability of this technique make it a promising strategy to avoid bacterial infections on implants.

Objective To explore the application of carbon nanoparticles for tracing sentinel node(SN) in early gastric cancer (EGC).Methods Forty-six patients with EGC conducted subserous injection of carbon nanoparticle solution 1.0 mL at 4-6 points around tumor during operation.SN was examined by adopting 3 different methods.The first stained lymph node was defined as the first SN(FSN),and the whole group lymph nodes were identified as the group SN(GSN) and all lymph nodes colored within 5 min were labeled as the all SN(ASN).The affirmative SN and other resected lymph nodes were performed the histopathological examination and comparison.Resnlts In all 46 cases,SN was successfully detected out with the detection rate of 100％;the number of SN,GSN and ASN were 1.04 ± 0.21,3.93-±-1.90 and 13.61 ± 4.36 respectively,the difference in SN number among 3 different methods had statistical significance(P＜0.05).The accuracy rates of FSN,GSN and ASN for judging perigastric lymph node metastasis status were 95.65％,100％ and 100％,respectively.Conclusion The carbon nanoparticles tracing SN in EGC has higher staining rate and higher accuracy for predicting lymph node metastasis;GSN has high accuracy,moreover has less trauma and is most suitable method for detecting SN.
