Objective:To explore the effects of endoscopic reprocessing on disinfection and its influential factors under the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.Methods:A total of 450 endoscopes cleaned and disinfected according to Technical Specifications for Cleaning and Disinfection of Endoscopes from November 2019 to January 2020, and 450 endoscopes cleaned and disinfected according to The recommended procedure for cleaning and disinfection of gastrointestinal endoscopes during COVID-19 epidemic by Chinese Society of Digestive Endoscopology from February to April 2020 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were enrolled in the control group and observation group respectively by random number method. Both the control group and the observation group contained 200 gastroscopes, 200 enteroscopes and 50 ultrasound endoscopes. ATP fluorescence detection method and pour plate technique were used to evaluate the disinfection effect of endoscopes. Single factor analysis and multiple logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors for unqualified sterilization after endoscopic reprocessing. Results:The disinfection pass rates of gastroscopes, enteroscopes and ultrasound endoscopes in the observation group were not significantly different compared with those of the control group ( P>0.05). The sterilization pass rates and ATP test pass rates of gastroscopes, enteroscopes and ultrasound endoscopes in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that non-strict implementation of endoscopic reprocessing ( OR=7.96, 95% CI: 4.55-22.84, P<0.001), non-standard operation ( OR=2.26, 95% CI: 1.24-5.63, P<0.001), insufficient concentration of disinfectant ( OR=5.43, 95% CI: 2.52-9.02, P<0.001), insufficient concentration ratio of multi-enzyme solution ( OR=4.38, 95% CI: 1.95-8.61, P<0.001), non-timely cleaning ( OR=2.86, 95% CI: 1.33-6.42, P<0.001), incomplete cleaning ( OR=3.75, 95% CI: 1.61-7.49, P<0.001) and improper endoscopic preservation ( OR=2.12, 95% CI: 1.36-4.12, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for unqualified sterilization after endoscopic reprocessing. Conclusion:In COVID-19 pandemic, endoscope reprocessing can significantly improve the disinfection effect of endoscopes, worthy of further clinical promotion. The failure to strictly implement the reprocessing procedure is an important factor that may lead to unqualified sterilization.

OBJECTIVETo study the value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in evaluating the curative effect of high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) for hypersplenism.

METHODSA retrospective analysis of dynamic contrast enhanced MRI data was conducted in 15 patients with hypersplenism before and after HIFU treatment to observe the signal changes and enhancement features of the lesions.

RESULTSCompared with that before treatment, the signal intensity of the lesions after HIFU could be increased, reduced or remained unchanged on T(1)WI without specificity; on T(2)WI, the signal intensity of the lesions was reduced after HIFU treatment. Dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI showed larger ablation areas than those displayed by T(1)WI and T(2)WI, and no enhancement was found in the lesions.

CONCLUSIONT(2)WI has a greater specificity in demonstrating coagulation necrosis of hypersplenism after HIFU ablation, and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI has a higher sensitivity in displaying the ablation area by highlighting the blood supply and enhancement characteristics of the lesions. MRI is efficient and noninvasive in follow-up evaluation of the signal intensity as well as histological changes of the treated region after HIFU.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the impact of aquaporin 9 (AQP9) on the proliferation,apoptosis,invasiveness and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma cells using the HepG2 cell line.

METHODSA lentiviral vector targeting the coding region of human AQP9 was constructed. The recombinant lentiviral vector was harvested from the 293T cell line and transfected into the HepG2 cell line; resistant cell clones were selected with puromycin. Three groups of cells were established, including the CC group (control without lentiviral vector), the PWPI group (control with empty carrier virus), and the AQP9 overexpression group (experimental with the AQP9 recombinant virus). Transfection efficiency was validated by laser confocal microscopy.Expression of AQP9 was detected in the transfected HepG2 cells by westem blotting (protein) and real-time qPCR (mRNA). AQP9 effects on proliferation, migration, invasion and apoptosis of the HepG2 cell line were assessed by plate colony formation assay, woumd healing assay, transwell assay and flow cytometry.

RESULTSThe green fluorescent protein of the recombinant lentiviral vector was appropriately distributed in the cell membrane. The AQP9 overexpression group showed significantly higher AQP9 mRNA and protein levels than the PWPI group and the CC group (both P < 0.01). Cells with AQP9 overexpression showed a lower colony formation rate (16.93±3.19% vs. CC group: 23.53±2.10% and PWPI group: 23.00±2.02%; F=6.46, P=0.032) and a lower overall apoptosis rate (44.96±3.53% vs. CC group:19.7±2.49% and PWPI group: 24.37±2.38%; F=66.88, P < 0.01). The AQP9 overexpression group also showed significantly higher number of cells in the G1 stage and significantly lower number of cells in the S stage (G1: 66.58±0.99% and S:15.25±1.81%), significantly smaller cell migration distance (P=0.01 < 0.05), and significantly suppressed invasiveness (17±8 vs. CC group:109+/-9 and PWPI group: 95±11; P=0.01 < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONIn HepG2 cells, AQP9 significantly reduces the migrative and invasive capabilities, induces cell apoptosis, and inhibits cell proliferation via cell cycle arrest at the G1/S phases.
