Abstract: Objective　To analyze the clinical characteristics of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia and improve the diagnosis and treatment skills of clinicians on this disease. Methods The clinical data of thirty-nine Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia cases detected by metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) from September 2020 to January 2022 at the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. Results There was a history of poultry exposure in 89.7%(35 cases) of the patients. The most common clinical manifestations were high fever (92.3%, 36), cough (76.9%,30), muscle soreness (48.7%,19), headache (38.5%,15), etc. Laboratory examinations showed 76.9% of patients had a normal leukocyte count, and 76.9% had decreased lymphocyte count, often accompanied by elevated C-reactive protein (100%), procalcitonin (97.4%), interleukin-6 (95.8%), interleukin-10 (95.8%), alanine aminotransferase (74.4%), and aspartate aminotransferase (84.6%). Univariate analysis indicated that there were statistically significant differences in the levels of aspartate transaminase, blood urea nitrogen, C-reactive protein, and procalcitonin between severe pneumonia patients and non-severe pneumonia patients（P<0.05）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that an elevated blood urea nitrogen (OR=4.899) had guiding significance for predicting the occurrence of severe pneumonia. Bronchoscopy examination showed no abnormalities in 53.6% of the patients. The imaging manifestations of pulmonary lesions were mainly lobar pneumonia (61.5%) and air bronchograms (94.9%). Therapeutically, it was sensitive to tetracyclines, macrocyclic lactones, and fluoroquinolones. A total of 84.6%(33 cases) of the patients were cured and discharged from the hospital at the end of the treatment. Conclusion Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia is a zoonotic disease that can be detected by mNGS. An elevated blood urea nitrogen level has guiding significance for predicting the occurrence of severe pneumonia. Empirically-selected regimens based on doxycycline are effective for the treatment of Chlamydia psittaci pneumonia.

OBJECTIVETo explore the impact of anti-cancer bioactive peptide-S (ACBP-S) on cell proliferation, cell cycle and apoptosis in human stomach cancer cell line MGC-803 cells.

METHODS(1) The cultured MGC-803 cells were treated with ACBP-S at various concentrations for 24, 48, 72 h, respectively. The inhibition rate of proliferation of MGC-803 cells were evaluated by MTT assay. Cell apoptosis was observed by transmission electron microscopy. Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). RT-PCR was used to assay the changes of p27 mRNA expression. Immunocytochemistry was used to detect the changes of expression of p27, PCNA, Bax, Bcl-2 proteins, respectively. (2) a nude mouse xenograft model with gastric carcinoma cell was established. ACPB-S was administered into the tail vein of the mice in a dose of 7 microg, every other day, and the mice were killed after two weeks. The tumors were taken off for further analysis.

RESULTS(1) ACBP-S at concentrations of 5.0, 10.0 and 15.0 microg/ml inhibit the growth of MGC-803 cells in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. The concentration of ACBP-S at 20.0 microg/ml showed an inhibition rate of (86.6 + 0.1)%. Typical apoptotic changes were observed under the transmission electron microscope. The result of FCM in the range of 5.0 and 20.0 microg/ml for 24 h showed higher early apoptosis rates, (5.7 +/- 0.2)% and (13.9 +/- 0.6)%, respectively, with s significant difference compared with that of the control group (P < 0.05). The ratio of G0/G1 was significantly increased with the increase of incubation time at 20 microg/ml. RT-PCR showed that the expression of p27 mRNA in MGC-803 cells was markedly increased after ACBP-S treatment. (2) After ACBP-S administration the tumor growth in nude mice was inhibited by 34.2%. More apoptotic and necrotic cells were observed in the mice of treatment group by histological examination with HE staining. The immunocytochemistry demonstrated that the expression of Bax protein was significantly increased and Bcl-2 and PCNA protein expressions were significantly decreased after ACBP-S treatment.

CONCLUSIONACBP-S has marked inhibiting effect upon the growth of MGC-803 cells inducing more apoptosis. The anti-cancer mechanism is probably related with its regulatory effects on cell cycle and apoptosis in the tumor cells.

BACKGROUND:Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology is currently one of the most advanced industrial manufacturing technologies. The surgical template prepared based on the 3D printing technology is mainly made of resin, and a great improvement in its accuracy is required. However, the clinical application of the surgical template made of metal is rarely reported. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical value of 3D-printing implant template in the restoration of free-end missing teeth.METHODS:A prospective study was conducted in 64 enrolled patients with free end-tooth defects. All the patients were randomly assigned to receive traditional implant template (control group,n=32) or 3D-printing implant template (study group,n=32), and 3-6 months later, the patients were subjected to crown restoration. At 6 months after crown restoration, cone beam computed tomography was performed to compare the deviation of the implant tip and neck (including vertical, buccolingual, mesial-distal). Success rate and chewing rate were compared between the two groups at 6 months after crown restoration; patient satisfaction assessment was done and compared between the two groups at 1 year after crown restoration. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no significant differences between the two groups in the success rate and chewing rate (98.7％ vs. 95.6％; 97.4％ vs. 97.1％,P>0.05). The vertical, buccolingual, mesial-distal deviations of the implant tip were significantly lower in the study group than the control group (P<0.05), while there was no difference in the vertical and buccolingual deviations of the implant neck between the two groups (P>0.05), and the mesial-distal deviation of the implant neck was significantly lower in the study group than the control group (P<0.05). In addition, there was no difference in the patient satisfaction between the study and control groups (94％vs. 91％, P>0.05). To conclude, the 3D printing implant template can effectively reduce implant excursion based on the assurance of therapeutic efficacy and patient satisfaction, which is of great significance in the restoration of free-end tooth loss.

BACKGROUND: Proximal femoral nail anti-rotation is widely used to treat various intertrochanteric fractures. Although its operation trauma is small, and the blood loss of perioperative period is still large. Tranexamic acid has been gradually used to reduce the bleeding of intertrochanteric fracture. The effectiveness and safety of reducing blood loss during perioperative period were not reported. OBJECTIVE: To explore the safety and efficacy of tranexamic acid on perioperative blood loss in patients with intertrochanteric fracture undergoing proximal femoral nail anti-rotation. METHODS: One hundred and eight patients with intertrochanteric fracture undergoing proximal femoral nail anti-rotation were selected from First Affiliated Hospital, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine between January 2015 and January 2017. Among all the subjects, 52 patients who received the operation before January 2016 served as the control group and 56 patients who received the operation after January 2016 were selected as the treatment group. Half an hour before operation, patients in the treatment group received 1 g tranexamic acid dissolved in 250 mL normal saline by intravenous dropping; patients in the control group just received 250 mL normal saline by intravenous dropping. The bleeding volume, blood transfusion volume, hemoglobin, hematocrit, coagulation index, D-dimer levels and complications were compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) During perioperative period, actual blood loss, intraoperative blood loss, dominant blood loss, recessive blood loss, volume of drainage, blood transfusion volume and blood transfusion rate were lower in the treatment group than in the control group (P < 0.05). (2) There was no statistically significant difference in the hemoglobin and hematocrit between the two groups before operation (P > 0.05). The hemoglobin and hematocrit of the two groups gradually decreased after the operation, and there was a slight improvement in the fifth day after surgery. At postoperative 2 hours, 1, 3 and 5 days, the hemoglobin and hematocrit of the treatment group were higher than in the control group (P < 0.05). At preoperation and each time point postoperation, prothrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, and fibrinogen levels were not statistically significant between the two groups (P > 0.05). Postoperative D-dimer levels in the two groups were significantly higher than preoperation, and there was a return on the fifth day. There was no statistically significant difference between groups at preoperation and each time point of postoperation (P > 0.05). (3) The results suggest that the tranexamic acid can effectively reduce the dominant and recessive blood loss in patients with the intertrochanteric fracture, and it is safe and effective.

OBJECTIVETo develop a sensitive and specific RT-PCR assay using the mRNA of MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 genes as specific tumor markers for the detection of the tumor cells in the peripheral blood of patients with gastric cancer.

METHODSPeripheral blood was obtained from 40 patients with gastric cancer and from 20 healthy volunteers. The mRNA of MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 genes in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) was detected by RT-PCR. The expressions of MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 mRNA in the tumor tissues of these gastric cancer patients were also detected by RT-PCR. Meanwhile,CEA expression by nested RT-PCR in PBMC of 40 gastric cancer patients was also detected.

RESULTSOf 40 gastric cancer patients, MAGE-1 and MAGE-3 mRNA were positive in 47.5% (19/40) and 25% (10/40) of PBMC respectively, and in 62.5% (25/40) and 30% (12/40) of gastric cancer tissues respectively. As a whole, in the PBMC of 40 gastric cancer patients, 25 (62.5%) samples were found to express at least one type of MAGE mRNA. In the patients whose tumors did not express MAGE-1 and/or MAGE-3 genes, the corresponding MAGE mRNA was also undetected in their PBMC. There was no expression of MAGE-1 or MAGE-3 gene in the PBMC from the 20 healthy donors. The positive rate of MAGE mRNA in PBMC was closely correlated with the tumor stage and lymph node metastasis (P <0.05). Positive rate of CEA gene expression was 32.5% (13/40) in the PBMC of 40 gastric cancer patients, 29 (72.5%)samples were detected to express at least one type of MAGE gene and CEA gene mRNA.

CONCLUSIONSMAGE-1, MAGE-3 and CEA mRNA are specifically detected with high percentage in the PBMC of gastric cancer patients by RT-PCR. They could be used as specific tumor markers for the detection of the circulating gastric cancer cells, and the detection results may be helpful to evaluate the prognosis of gastric cancer patients.
