Objective To investigate the effect of isoflurane anesthesia on the expression of amyloid β protein (Aβ) in hippocampus in aged rats.Methods Sixty-one healthy male SD rats,aged 18-19 months,weighing 400-500 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups:isoflurane group (group Ⅰ,n =31),control group (groupⅡ,n =20),and blank group (group Ⅲ,n =10).Group Ⅰ inhaled 1.4％ isoflurane for 2 h,and cognitive function was assessed at 5 d before and 2 d after anesthesia by Morris water maze.Group Ⅱ received Morris water maze text only.Group Ⅲ received no treatment.Group Ⅰ was divided into 2 subgroups according to whether the cognitive impairment occurred:cognitive impairment group (P subgroup) and no cognitive impairment group (NP subgroup).The animals were sacrificed immediately after the test.The hippocampus was isolated for determination of the levels of Aβ40 and Aβ42,β-secretase (BACE),insulin degrading enzyme (IDE)and neprilysin (NEP).Results There was no significant difference in the results of Morris water maze test before anesthesia among the 3 groups.There was no significant difference in the swimming velocity between group Ⅰ and group Ⅱ.The time of staying at the original platform quadrant was significantly shorter in P subgroup than in NP subgroup and Ⅱ group,and there was no significant difference in the time of staying at the original platform quadrant between NP subgroup and Ⅱ group.There was no significant difference in the levels of Aβ40 and Aβ42,BACE,NEP and IDE among the 5 groups,and between P subgroup and NP subgroup.Conclusion Isoflurane anesthesia has no effect on the expression of Aβ in the hippocampus,indicating that isoflurane-induced cognitive impairment is not related to Aβ pathway in aged rats.

Objective To investigate the influences of HLA mismatching on renal function in the kidney transplant patients re-ceiving pairs of allograft from the same donor.Methods 171 pairs of renal transplant patients receiving the kidneys from the same donors were investigated.They were admitted in our hospital before 2008.Their human leukocyte antigens (HLA)were typed with the commercial polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-sequence-specific primers (SSP)HLA typing kit (One Lambda,Inc.,USA;and GTI Diagnostics,USA).The serum creatinine (SCr)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)were measured in the clinical laboratory of our hospital.Results Among 171 pairs of renal transplant patients,there were 162 recipients with HLA mismatch≤4,in which the re-nal function was remained stable in 107 recipients and lost or decreased in 55 patients.There were 180 recipients with HLA mis-match >4,in which the renal function was stayed normal in 84 recipients and lost or decreased in 96 patients.The difference in in-fluencing the renal function between the HLA mismatch≤4 and HLA mismatch>4 had statistical significance (χ2 =12.22,P <0.05).Conclusion Excellent HLA typing match has important significance for renal long term survival.

Objective : To investigate the status and influencing factors of home blood pressure monitoring (HBPM) among hypertensive patients, so as to provide the evidence for building and maintaining HBPM among hypertensive patients. Methods: Hypertensive patients hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangdong Pharmaceutical University were sampled from July to December 2022, and subjects' general data, HBPM behaviors and cognition were collected using self-designed questionnaires. In addition, factors affecting regular HBPM were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 440 questionnaires were allocated, and 422 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.91%. The respondents included 234 males (55.45%) and 188 females (44.55%), and had a median age of 70 (interquartile range, 15) years. There were 239 respondents with regular HBPM (56.64%). Of 422 respondents, 68 had good cognition of blood pressure monitoring (16.11%), and 79.15% did not think regular changes of their blood pressure within 24 hours, while 72.04% did not think it necessary to measure blood pressure more than twice a day. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that recommendation of regular blood pressure monitoring by healthcare workers (OR=4.341, 95%CI: 2.493-7.560), number of blood pressure measurements according to real circumstances (OR=3.858, 95%CI: 1.358-10.961), recording of measurement results (OR=4.945, 95%CI: 1.863-13.129), provision of data to doctors at admission (OR=2.023, 95%CI: 1.173-3.488) and good cognition of blood pressure monitoring (good, OR=11.939, 95%CI: 3.972-35.886; general, OR=9.681, 95%CI: 5.157-18.172) resulted in a high possibility of regular HBPM among respondents. Conclusion Hypertensive patients with recommendation of regular blood pressure monitoring by healthcare workers, number of blood pressure measurements according to real conditions, recording of blood pressure measurement results, provision of blood pressure to doctors at admission and good cognition of blood pressure monitoring are more likely to have regular HBPM.

Objective:To construct a novel biomimetic calcium phosphate (BioCaP) scaffold loaded with bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2),and to investigate its role in the osteogenesis of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) in vitro and in vivo.Methods:The BioCaP scaffold coprecipitated with BMP-2 (BMP-2-BioCaP) was constructed in this study.Field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to analyze the morphology of the surfaces.The release kinetics was measured to evaluate the slow-release characteristics in vitro.BMP-2-BioCaP was immersed in proliferation medium (PM) or osteogenic medium (OM),respectively.The supernatants were collected and used to culture hASCs in vitro.Cell numbers were determined using the cell-counting kit-8 (CCK-8) to assess the cell proliferation.After 7 and 14 days,alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and quantification were performed to test the activity of ALP.After 14 and 21 days,the calcification deposition was determined by alizarin red S (ARS) staining and quantification.The expressions of the osteoblast-related genes were tested on day 4 and day 14.In the in vivo study,6 nude mice were used and implanted subcutaneously into the back of the nude mice for 4 groups:(1) BioCaP scaffold only,(2) BioCaP scaffold + hASCs,(3) BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold,(4) BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold + hASCs (test group).After 4 weeks of implantation,hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was performed to evaluate the in vivo osteogenesis of hASCs.Results:SEM observations showed that BioCaP and BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold were entirely composed of straight,plate-like and sharp-edged crystal units,and the length of the crystal units varied between 5 and 10 μm.Release kinetics analysis demonstrated that BMP-2 incorporated with BioCaP could be released at certain concentration and last for more than 21 days,and the accumulative protein release could reach 20％.CCK-8 assays showed that cell proliferation was not significantly affected by BMP-2BioCaP.ALP activity was higher by the induction of OM + BMP-2-BioCaP than of the other groups (P ＜0.01).More mineralization deposition and more expressions of osteoblast-related genes such as Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2),ALP,osteopontin (OPN) and osteocalcin (OC) were determined in the OM + BMP-2-BioCaP group at different time points (P ＜0.01).HE staining showed that,in the test group and BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold group,the extracellular matrix (ECM) with eosinophilic staining were observed around hASCs,and newly-formed bone-like tissues could be found in ECM around the scaffold materials.Moreover,compared with the BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold group,more bone-like tissues could be observed in ECM with typical structure of bone tissue in the test groups.No obvious positive results were found in the other groups.Conclusion:BMP-2-BioCaP scaffold could achieve slow-release of BMP-2 and promote the osteogenic differentiation of hASCs in vitro and in vivo.The novel tissue-engineered bone composed of hASCs and BMP-2-BioCaPis promising for the repair of bone defect.

Objective:To investigate the effects of continuous monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) and brain oxygen partial pressure (PbtO 2) on the prognosis of patients with severe craniocerebral injury. Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. Seventy patients with severe craniocerebral injury with a Glasgow coma score (GCS) 4-8 admitted to the neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU) of the People's Hospital of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region from January 2017 to May 2020 were enrolled, and they were divided into ICP monitoring group and ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group by random number table. Patients in ICP monitoring group received ICP monitoring and were given traditional treatment of controlling ICP and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), the therapeutic target was ICP < 20 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) and CPP > 60 mmHg. Patients in ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group were given ICP and PbtO 2 monitoring at the same time, and oxygen flow was adjusted on the basis of controlling ICP and CPP to maintain the PbtO 2 > 20 mmHg, and the therapeutic target of ICP and CPP was the same as the ICP monitoring group. ICP and PbtO 2 values were recorded during monitoring in the two groups, the results of CPP, GCS and arterial blood gas analysis were recorded, and the prognosis at 3 months and 6 months after injury was compared by Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score between the two groups. GOS score > 3 was considered as good prognosis. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was drawn, and the 3-month and 6-month cumulative survival rates of the two groups were analyzed. Linear regression analysis was used to further evaluate the relationship between PbtO 2 and GOS score. Results:Finally, a total of 70 patients with severe craniocerebral injury were enrolled in the analysis, 34 patients received ICP combined with PbtO 2 monitoring and guided therapy, and 36 patients received ICP monitoring alone. The average ICP of ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group was significantly lower than that of ICP monitoring group (mmHg: 13.4±3.2 vs. 18.2±8.3, P < 0.01). Although the CPP in both groups was great than 60 mmHg, the average CPP of ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group was significantly higher than that of ICP monitoring group (mmHg: 82.1±10.5 vs. 74.5±11.6, P < 0.01). No significant difference was found in average GCS score or arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) between the ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group and ICP monitoring group [GCS score: 5.3±2.3 vs. 5.2±2.2, PaCO 2 (mmHg): 33.5±4.8 vs. 32.6±5.2, both P > 0.05]. The average arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2) of ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group was obviously higher than that of ICP monitoring group (mmHg: 228.4±93.6 vs. 167.3±81.2, P < 0.01). Compared with the ICP monitoring group, the good outcome rates of 3 months and 6 months after injury in the ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group were significantly higher (3 months: 67.6% vs. 38.9%, 6 months: 70.6% vs. 41.7%, both P < 0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 3-month and 6-month cumulative survival rates of ICP+PbtO 2 monitoring group were significantly higher than those of ICP monitoring group (3 months: 85.3% vs. 61.1%, Log-Rank test: χ2 = 5.171, P = 0.023; 6 months: 79.4% vs. 55.6%, Log-Rank test: χ2 = 4.511, P = 0.034). Linear regression analysis showed that PbtO 2 was significantly correlated with GOS score at 3 months and 6 months after injury in patients with severe craniocerebral injury ( r values were 0.951 and 0.933, both P < 0.01). Conclusions:PbtO 2 compared with ICP monitoring guiding therapy is valuable in improving the prognosis of patients with severe craniocerebral injury. It can improve the prognosis at 3-6 months after injury.

Objective To study the relation between donor-recipient human leukocyte antigen (HLA)mismatching and combined malignant tumors after renal transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 1 021 patients who received renal transplantation from 1993 to 2009 in Department of Urology of Beijing Friendship Hospital of Affiliated Capital University of Medical Sciences over 5 years and had complete HLA typing were analyzed. In the 1 021 patients after renal transplantation,928 cases were non-tumor patients and 93 cases were malignant tumor patients. The mismatching data of 3 locus (HLA-A,B and DR)with a total of 6 antigens of the donors and recipients were collected. The relation between donor-recipient HLA mismatching number and postoperative combined malignant tumors was analyzed. And that between genders was also analyzed. Results Malignant tumors occurred in 9.11% (93/1 021)of the patients. The malignant tumor incidences of patients with HLA mismatch of 0-1,2,3,4,5 and 6 antigens were 14%,13%,14%,6%, 3% and 4%respectively. Patients with HLA over half-matched (0-3 antigens mismatch)had higher incidence of malignant tumors compared with that in patients with HLA less than half matched (4-6 antigens mismatch) (14% vs. 5%;χ2 =24.11,P<0.005). In the malignant tumor patients of0-3 antigens mismatch,12 cases were males and 54 cases were females. In the patients of 4-6 antigens mismatch,12 cases were males and 15 cases were females. The proportion of female patients of 0-3 antigens mismatch was higher than that of male patients (χ2 =5.60,P<0.025). Conclusions For the renal transplant patients,especially female patients, the lower the HLA mismatching number is,the higher the malignant tumor incidence is.

Objective:To investigate the role of multimodal neuronavigation intraoperative and sodium fluorescein-guided techniques in microsurgery for intracranial malignant neoplasm.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 50 patients with intracranial malignant tumors treated by microsurgery from 2016 to 2019 in Inner Mongolia People′s Hospital. Preoperative imaging included computed tomography (CT), computed tomographic angiography (CTA), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), MRI: MRA, MRV, DWI, PWI, DTI, DTI, MRS sequence scan, and before the operation, they were fused with the functional nervous system navigation workstation of Bo Yilai to make the navigation plan. During the operation, the functional navigation was combined with low dose fluorescein sodium (2 mg/kg) for operation. Intraoperative neuronavigation was used to determine the location of the tumor and its spatial relationship with the pyramidal tract of the main fiber conduction tract and the large blood vessels, and intraoperative yellow fluorescence mode of pentero900 Zeiss microscope showed the boundary between the tumor and normal brain tissue for tumor resection.Results:There were 38 cases of glioma, 10 cases of brain metastasis of lung cancer, 1 case of brain metastasis of renal clear cell carcinoma and 1 case of spindle cell tumor. The accuracy of preoperative neuronavigation was 95%. Compared with the preoperative lesions, MRI of the head was reexamined 3 days after operation to judge the degree of tumor resection. In this group, 38 cases (76%) were totally resected and 12 cases (24%) were subtotal resected. The 6-month survival rate was 85.9%, the 12-month survival rate was 53.1%, the 18-month survival rate was 24.5%, and the survival time was (15.0 ± 3.2) months.Conclusion:Multimodal functional neuronavigation combined with fluorescein sodium staining can locate and label tumors in real time, improve tumor resection rate, and improve the prognosis of brain cancer patients.

Objective:To analyze the postoperative paravertebral muscle degeneration and its correlations with health related quality of life (HRQL) in patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery-transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF).Methods:The clinical data of the 50 patients were retrospectively analyzed who had undergone single-segmental MIS-TLIF at Department of Spinal Cord Surgery, The People's Hospital of Henan Province from January 2019 to December 2021. The relative volumes of lumbar posterior muscle (LM), the relative volumes of the psoas major (PM), and the rates of fatty degeneration (FD) of the fused segment and its adjacent segments were compared respectively between preoperation, 6 and 12 months postoperation. The correlations were analyzed between the HRQL scores [visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and Oswestry disability index (ODI)] and the relative LM volumes, the relative PM volumes, and the FD rates of the fused segment and its adjacent segments at 12 months postoperation.Results:Compared with the preoperative values, the relative LM volumes and the relative PM volumes of the fused segment and its adjacent segments at 6 and 12 months postoperation were significantly reduced while the FD rates significantly increased. However, the FD rate of the fused segment at 12 months postoperation (20.6% ± 6.1%) was significantly lower than that at 6 months postoperation (29.7% ± 8.2%) ( P < 0.05). The VAS score was strongly negatively or positively correlated with the relative LM volume ( r = -0.819, P < 0.001) and the FD rate ( r = 0.86, P < 0.001) of the fused segment, and moderately negatively correlated with the relative PM volume ( r = -0.435, P = 0.016). The ODI index was moderately negatively correlated with the relative LM volume ( r = -0.512, P = 0.004) and the relative PM volume ( r = -0.402, P = 0.020) of the fused segment, but moderately positively correlated with the FD rate of the fused segment ( r = 0.565, P = 0.001). There was a moderate negative correlation between the ODI index and the relative LM volume of the adjacent segments ( r = -0.478, P = 0.012). Conclusions:After MIS-TLIF, the volume of the paravertebral muscles decreases and the dorsal muscles develop fatty degeneration. The improvement of LM fatty degeneration may be observed by 12-month follow-up in the fused segment, but not in the adjacent segments. The LM volume and the FD rate of the fused segment are the most closely related to the postoperative HRQL.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy of Chinese medicine combined with indirect moxibustion plaster on corona virus disease 2019 （COVID-19） patients during recovery period. MethodNinety patients of COVID-19 during the recovery period were randomly divided into a Chinese medicine group， an indirect moxibustion plaster group， and a combination group，with 30 cases in each group. According to the 10th edition of COVID-19 Diagnosis and Treatment Protocol，patients in the Chinese medicine group received oral Chinese medicine based on syndrome differentiation，one dose per day， twice a day. Patients in the indirect moxibustion plaster group were treated with indirect moxibustion plaster at Zusanli （ST 36）， Pishu （BL 20）， Dazhui （GV 14）， Feishu （BL 13）， Kongzui （LU 6）， and Tiantu （CV 22），once a day，40 min each time. Patients in the combination group were treated with Chinese medicine combined with indirect moxibustion plaster. Treatment lasted two weeks. Before and after treatment，the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score，pulmonary computed tomography （CT） score，St. George's Respiratory Questionnaire （SGRQ） score，blood routine indexes ［white blood cell count （WBC），neutrophil count （NEUT），and lymphocyte count （LYM）］， and inflammatory indexes ［C-reactive protein （CRP），serum ferritin， and interleukin-6 （IL-6）］ were observed in the three groups. The clinical efficacy was evaluated. ResultAfter treatment，the scores of TCM symptoms，pulmonary CT， and SGRQ，CRP，IL-6，and ferritin in the three groups decreased（P<0.05），while WBC and LYM increased（P<0.05）， but there was no significant difference in NEUT. The above indexes in the combination group were better than those in the other two groups（P<0.05）. After treatment， the cured and markedly effective rate was 76.7% （23/30） in the combination group， 50.0% （15/30） in the Chinese medicine group， and 46.7% （14/30） in the indirect moxibustion plaster group. The cured and markedly effective rate of the combination group was significantly higher than that of the Chinese medicine group （χ²=4.593， P<0.05） and the indirect moxibustion plaster group （χ²=5.711， P<0.05）. The total effective rate was 96.7 % （29/30） in the combination group， 93.3% （28/30） in the Chinese medicine group， and 86.7% （26/30） in the indirect moxibustion plaster group. The total effective rate of the combination group was higher than that of the Chinese medicine group and the indirect moxibustion plaster group， but the differences were not statistically significant. ConclusionChinese medicine combined with indirect moxibustion plaster can effectively improve the clinical symptoms，promote pulmonary inflammation，blood routine indexes， and inflammatory indexes， and improve the quality of life of COVID-19 patients during the recovery period，which is more advantageous than Chinese medicine alone or indirect moxibustion plaster.
