BACKGROUND:The correlation between blood stasis syndrome and non-blood stasis syndrome of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion remains unclear.
OBJECTIVE:To construct serum protein pattern model for diagnosing blood stasis syndrome of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion.
METHODS:A total of 180 cases were included in this study and divided into treatment group (120 patients with lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion) and control group (60 healthy cases from physical examination). Furthermore treatment group was equal y assigned into blood stasis syndrome subgroup and non-blood stasis syndrome subgroup, with 60 cases in each subgroup. The involved cases were wel matched in nations, genders and ages. Serum samples of peripheral blood from the 180 cases were col ected. Surface-enhanced laser desorption/inionation time of flight mass spectrometry and ProteinChip technology were employed to detect and plot protein mass spectrum. The protein peak values were identified using Biomarker Wizard software. Then serum diagnosis model of blood stasis syndrome of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion was established. The obtained models were verified through double blind method. The differential proteins were searched by ExPASy data.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:We detected that peak values of eleven proteins had statistical significance (P<0.05) from the involved 180 cases. Among them, two proteins were highly expressed while the other nine proteins were lowly expressed. Serum protein pattern model for diagnosing blood stasis syndrome of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion was established through Biomarker Patterns software, and the sensibility was 86.667%, the specificity was 94.167%, the positive predictive value was 88.136%. There are a variety of abnormal y expressed proteins in the serum of the patients with blood stasis syndrome of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion. The serum protein pattern model involved eleven different proteins can be used to diagnose blood stasis syndrome of lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of needle-knife fistulotomy (NKF)for difficult cannulation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Methods Data of patients, who received NKF on the back of major papilla when bile duct could not be accessed by conventional cannulation and/or other pre-cut methods during ERCP, were retrospectively reviewed. The success rate of deep cannulation and its complications were observed and analyzed. Results NKF was performed in 108patients due to difficult cannulation, which succeeded in 97 (91.2%) in access to the bile duct and failed in 11 patients with malignant biliary strictures. The failure rate in patients with distal malignant obstruction was higher (25. 8%, 8/31) than those with proximal lesions (5.3%, 3/57) (P = 0. 014, χ2 = 5. 983).Post-ERCP pancreatitis occurred in 5 cases (4. 6%), with the incidence significantly higher in NKF-failure group (18. 2%, 2/11) than that in NKF-suocess group (3.1% ,3/97) (P = 0. 006, χ2 = 7.418). Intestinal perforation occurred in 1 patient and cholangitis developed in 4 others, which all recovered after conservative managements. Conclusion NKF for difficult cannulations in ERCP is safe and effective, especially in hands of experienced operators, but cannulation success rate is relatively low in distal malignant biliary obstruction.

Objective To investigate the acute adverse reactions of craniospinal irradiation with helical tomotherapy in medulloblastoma patients and its risk factors. Methods A total of 20 patients with medulloblastoma who received craniospinal irradiation with helical tomotherapy between October 2012 and September 2016 in Air Force General Hospital were selected. The acute adverse events of 20 patients during the treatment were record. According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) version 4.0, the adverse reactions were divided into the mild group (grade 0-Ⅱ) and severe group (grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ) adverse reactions. And the risk factors were also analyzed. Results The non-hematological adverse reactions included fatigue (55％), vomiting (45％) and headache (25％). The hematological adverse reactions included leukopenia (95％), thrombocytopenia (55％) and lower hemoglobin (45％), and the incidence of severe adverse reactions was 35％ (7/20), 20％ (4/20) and 0 ( 0/20 ) , respectively . Leukopenia occurred in 18 patients ( 90％) at the beginning of radiotherapy within 2 weeks, and thrombocytopenia occurred in 8 patients (40％) at the beginning of radiotherapy after 2 weeks. Single factor analysis showed that there were no statistical differences in hematological adverse events of gender, age and radiation dose of spinal cord (all P>0.05). The incidence of leukopenia for the patients who received the chemotherapy before the radiotherapy was higher than that for the patients without the chemotherapy before the radiotherapy (P< 0.05). Conclusions The hematological adverse reactions were the major acute adverse events during the craniospinal irradiation with helical tomotherapy in patients with medulloblastoma. Theincidence of leukopenia and thrombocytopenia is common, and the incidence of hematological adverse reactions is higher after the chemotherapy. Thus, the close monitoring of hemogram change and treatment of hematological adverse reactions in time during the radiotherapy should be taken into the consideration.

Objective:To investigate the effects of ultra-high dose rate radiation (FLASH-RT) and conventional radiation (CONV-RT) on plasma metabolites in glioma mice.Methods:Tocally 21 male C57BL/6J mice bearing intracranial glioma xenograft were randomly divided into healthy control group ( n=3), CONV-RT group ( n=9) and FLASH-RT group ( n=9). The CONV-RT group was administered a single dose of 24 Gy radiation on the head of mice at a dose rate of 0.4 Gy/s, and the FLASH-RT group was administered a single dose of 24 Gy radiation on the head of mice at a dose rate of 60 Gy/s, and the healthy control group was given 0 Gy pseudoradiation under the same condition. Mice blood was collected through the inner canthus vein for plasma separation at 1, 3 and 7 d after radiation in the two radiation groups, and the blood plasma of healthy control group was collected at 7 days after sham radiation. The changes in plasma metabolites were detected by the non-targeted metabolomics based on liquid chromatography mass spectrometry tandem platform. Results:After irradiation, the metabolites in plasma of two irradiation groups had significant difference. Compared with the healthy control group, 12 and 5 differential metabolites were screened out in the FLASH-RT group and CONV-RT group at three time points, respectively. The difference of plasma metabolites had the largest value at 1 day and decreased at 3 and 7 d after radiation. The arachidonic acid and isovaleric acid, involving arachidonic acid metabolism, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, and tyrosine metabolism pathways were screened in both FLASH-RT group and CONV-RT group, and the 10 differential metabolites, mainly involving energy metabolism and redox reactions, only existed in the FLASH-RT group.Conclusions:Arachidonic acid and isovaleric acid may be the common sensitive biomarkers to different radiation patterns, which provides ideas for further exploring the molecular mechanism of FLASH-RT in the treatment of glioma.

Objective:To study the effects of FLASH irradiation (FLASH-RT) and conventional irradiation (CONV-RT) on gene expression profile in mouse liver, in order to provide theoretical basis of the potential mechanism of FLASH-RT.Methods:A total of 11 C57BL/6J male mice were divided into healthy control group (Ctrl group), CONV-RT group and FLASH-RT group according to random number table method. Mouse abdomen was treated with 12 Gy CONV-RT or FLASH-RT. Then the mice were killed by neck removal, and the liver tissues were collected to extract total RNA for transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq) that was then analyzed by bio-informatics analysis to investigate the changes of gene expression profiles. The mRNA expression levels of Stat1, Irf9 and Rela were verified by quantitative real-time PCR assay.Results:1 762 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in group FLASH-RT vs. CONV-RT. Among them, 660 genes were up-regulated and 1 102 genes were down-regulated. 1 918 DEGs were identified in groups FLASH-RT vs. Ctrl. Among them, 728 genes were up-regulated and 1 190 genes were down-regulated. 1 569 DEGs were identified in group CONV-RT vs. Ctrl. Among them, 1 046 genes were up-regulated and 523 genes were down-regulated. According to Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, these DEGs from groups FLASH-RT vs. CONV-RT were involved in various functions including defense response to virus, other organisms in cell components, adenylyltransferase activity in molecular function activity. These DEGs from group FLASH-RT vs. Ctrl were involved in various functions including defense response to other oranisms, endoplasmic reticulum chaperone complex, double-stranded RNA binding and so on. These DEGs from group FLASH-RT vs. CONV-RT were involved in several Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways including influenza A, Herpes simplex infection and so on. These DEGs from group FLASH-RT vs. Ctrl were involved in several KEGG pathways including influenza A, NOD-like receptor signaling pathway. Stat1 was likely to be activated by FLASH radiation. The quantitative real-time PCR assay showed that FLASH-RT obviously increased the mRNA expressions of Stat1, Irf9 and Rela ( t=6.62, 2.11, 1.67, P<0.05). Conclusions:FLASH-RT and CONV-RT could alter gene expression profiles in mouse liver tissues, and these DEGs are involved in multiple radiobiological functional pathways. In comparison with CONV-RT, FLASH-RT induces a low level of liver injury, which may due to hypoxia radiation resistance.

Objective: To investigate the snoring status of school-aged children in Beijing and explore the association of snoring and academic performance. Methods: A total of 7 925 children aged from 6 to 14 were selected from 15 primary and middle schools at 7 districts (Xicheng, Chaoyang, Changping, Shunyi, Fangshan, Huairou and Mentougou) in Beijing in 2015, using multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method. The recruited children were asked to complete the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) and a questionnaire related to sleep behavior. The multiplelogistic regression was used to analyze the association of snoring and academic performance. Results: A total of 794 (12.44%) children showed a decline in academic performance among 6 383 eligible respondentsfor data analysis. 580 (9.08%) children with snoring was identified, of which 333 and 247 were in frequency of 1-2 times per week and frequency of ≥3 times per week, respectively; 357, 170 and 53 were in snoring grade Ⅰ, grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ, respectively. Compared with the children without snoring, the OR (95%CI) for children with 1-2 times per week and ≥3 times per week was 1.363 (1.000-1.857) and 1.605 (1.135-2.269), respectively; and the OR (95%CI) for children with grade Ⅰ, grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ of snoring was 1.226 (0.893-1.683), 1.595 (1.062-2.397) and 2.31 (1.17-4.565), respectively. Conclusion There is a statistical relationship between snoring and the decline of academic performance. The decline of academic performance positively associated with increased frequency and grade of snoring.
