[Summary] Minimally invasive hybrid coronary revascularization ( MIHCR) represents a minimally invasive revascularization strategy that combines coronary artery bypass graft ( CABG) surgery with percutaneous coronary intervention ( PCI) .Although MIHCR is better than coronary artery bypass graft surgery in theory , there is no useful randomized controlled trial to prove the advantage of MIHCR in recent medical papers .In this paper , we reviewed different aspects of MIHCR , such as basic definitions , basic rationale , indications , operation selection and current problems .

Objective To investigate the relationship of the serum bilirubin level with acute ischemic stroke (AIS), and Chinese isch-emic stroke subclassification (CISS), stroke severity and short-term outcome of AIS patients. Methods 616 patients with AIS as well as 664 patients without stroke matched with gender and age were compared and analyzed with the non-conditional Logistic regression. The AIS pa-tients were divided based on the CISS, and their bilirubin levels were compared. The AIS patients were divided into high bilirubin group and normal bilirubin group, their scores of the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) as admission and discharge, and neural func-tion improvement rate were compared. Results The levels of total bilirubin (TBIL), direct bilirubin (DBIL) and indirect bilirubin (IBIL) were higher in the AIS group than in the control group (P<0.01), and the TBIL was the independent risk factors of AIS (OR=1.026, 95%CI 1.012-1.041, P<0.001). There was no significant difference of the levels of TBIL, DBIL and IBIL among the patients of CISS (P>0.05). The NIHSS score was higher in the high bilirubin group than in the normal bilirubin group as admission (P<0.05), but it was not significant as discharge (P>0.05), nor the rate of neural function improvement (P>0.05). Conclusion The serum bilirubin level elevated and correlated with the severity in the AIS patients, which might be the risk of pathogenesis and AIS. The bilirubin was not various with the CISS, and might be less involved in the short-term outcome of AIS.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of recurrent ischemic stroke, and evaluate the severity and short-term outcome. Methods From March, 2014 to March, 2015, 238 patients with recurrent ischemic stroke and 378 patients with initial ischemic stroke matched with gender and age were enrolled. The clinical data of two groups were compared and the non-conditional Logistic regression model was made to analysis the risk factors of recurrent ischemic stroke. The National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score as ad-mission and discharge, and the neural function improvement rate of two groups were compared. Results The incidences of leukoarailsis (χ2=8.666), hypertension (χ2=8.189), smoking (χ2=6.973) and alcohol consumption (χ2=4.722) were higher in the recurrent group than in the pri-mary group (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that leukoarailsis (OR=1.690, 95%CI:1.198~2.384, P=0.003), hypertension (OR=1.715, 95%CI:1.135~2.592, P=0.010) and smoking (OR=1.896, 95%CI:1.233~2.915, P=0.004) were the independent risk factors of recur-rent ischemic stroke. The NIHSS scores as admission and discharge were significantly higher (t=-3.645, t=-4.675, P<0.001), and the neural function improvement rate was lower (t=2.643, P<0.01) in the recurrent group than in the primary group. Conclusion Hypertension, leuko-arailsis and smoking are independent risk factors for recurrent ischemic stroke. Recurrent ischemic stroke is more serious than initial isch-emic stroke, and the short-term neural function recovers more slowly.

ObjectiveTo establish a simple and sensitive method to detect MPL515 mutations in peripheral blood of ET and PMF patients,and investigate the frequencies of the MPL515 and JAK2V617F mutations in Chinese patients.MethodsTotallv 261 patients of ET and 25 PMF cases were collected from Huashan Hospital of Fudan University and DNA samples were isolated from peripheral blood of these cases.SYBR GreenⅠreal-time PCR was used to detect JAK2V617F mutation.Taqman probe was designed to be specific for the three types of mutations ( MPl515wt,MPLW515L and MPIW515K).Real-time PCR was used to detect MPL515 mutations.Tbe results were confirmed by sequencing after T-A cloning.Results Among 261 ET patients,119 cases (45.6％ ) were identified as JAK2V617F mutation carriers and 7 cases (2.7％ ) were detected to be MPl515 mutation carriers,including 5 cases with MPLW515L,1 case with MPLW515K and 1 ease with MPLW515L + K.Additionally 10 cases with JAK2V617F(40.0％ ) and 3 cases with MPL515 ( 12.0％ ) were screened out in 25 PMF patients,including 1 case with MPLW515L and 2 cases with MPLW515L + K.One ET patient was found to harbor concurrent JAK2V617F and MPL515 mutations.ConclusionJAK2V617F mutation is the major molecular marker of ET and PMF,meanwhile MPL515 mutation is important and useful complement.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association of BANK1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with rheumatoid arthritis(RA) in Chinese Han. MethodsTwo hundreds and twenty-one RA patients and 310 healthy controls who were Chinses Han population from Huashan Hopital and Changzheng Hospital in Shanghai,China were included.DNAs were extracted from peripheral whole blood for study.Samples were genotyped for three variants rs10516487,rs17266594 and rs3733197 in BANK1 by unlabelled probe high resolution melting (HRM) assay.The genotype frequencies of the detected polymorphisms were analyzed in relation to RA and the production of autoantibodies in RA patients.ResultsThe Tr genotype frequency was much higher in RA patients than in healthy controls(X2=6.241,P=0.044).The frequencies of rs10516487 G allele,rs17266594 T allele and rs3733197 G allele were increased among RA patients compared with healthy controls,although they didn't reach statistical significance.The rs10516487 and rs17266594 were found in strong linkage disequilibrium(D'=0.993,r2=0.985).And also the major TGG haplotype of 3-SNP was significantly associated with RA patients[P=0.037,OR =1.345,95％CI (1.018-1.776)].ConclusionBANK1 rs17266594 polymorphism is susceptible to RA,while rs10516487 and rs17266594 are linked in Chinese Han population.BANK1 SNPs TGG haplotype may contribute to RA susceptibility,too.

Objective To establish a single-tube detecting system for the simultaneous identification of JAK2 V617F and JAK2 exon12 mutations.Methods Genomic DNA of cell line PC-3 was utilized as the wild type control,while genomic DNA of cell line HEL and plasmids with diverse JAK2 exon 12 mutations were used as the positive controls for JAK2 V617F and exon12 mutations.Multiplex PCR was performed to amplify the different amplicons combined with high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis,which established the multiplex detecting system for JAK2 V617F and exon12 mutations.Meanwhile 42 cases of polycythemia vera patients were collected to detect 2 kinds of JAK2 mutations by the above system and routine methods.Results The multiplex JAK2 mutations detecting system was successfully established by multiplex PCR combined with high-resolution melting curve analysis,which could simultaneously detect JAK2 V617F and JAK2 exon12 mutations.The analytical sensitivities of 2 mutations in this system were both up to 5％ and the precision (coefficient of variation) of intra-and inter-assay of the melting temperature (Tm) of 2 amplicons were separately less than 0.01％.37 cases were identified JAK2 V617F mutations from 42 polycythemia vera patients,while 2 JAK2 exon12 mutations cases were found from 5 JAK2 V617F negative patients.Compared with routine methods,the results matched the rate of 100％.Two cases of JAK2 exon 12 mutations were confirmed to the mutation types of H538K539delinsL and F537-I546dul10 + F547L by cloning and sequencing.Conclusions This method can simultaneously detect two kinds of JAK2 mutations in the peripheral blood and will contribute to the molecular diagnosis of myeloproliferative neoplasms,especially polycythemia vera.

Objective To investigate the effects of vagus nerve electrostimulation (VNS) on the brain damage of rat middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO)/reperfusion model and its mechanism. Methods Twenty four adult male SD rats were randomly divided into two groups (12 each): MCAO/reperfusion group (MCAO group) and MCAO/reperfusion+VNS group (MCAO+VNS group). Subsequently, the neurological function deficit was determined by neurological scoring according to Zea Long scoring method 24h after MCAO/reperfusion. The cerebral infarction volume was determined by TTC assay. The cell apoptosis in brain damage zone was determined by TUNEL assay. Then, the effect of VNS on cAMP response element binding protein (CREB) and p-CREB protein expression was determined by Western blotting. The effect of VNS on Bcl-2 and Bax expression was determined by immunohistochemistry assay. Results Compared with MCAO group, VNS significantly inhibited MCAO-induced neurological deficit (P<0.01), decreased brain infarct volume (P<0.01) and cell apoptosis (P<0.01), increased the expression of p-CREB protein (P<0.01) and the number of Bcl-2-position cells (P<0.01) together with decreasing the number of Bax-position cells (P<0.01). However, VNS did not affect the expression of CREB protein (P>0.05). Conclusion VNS may ameliorate MCAO-induced neurological deficit and decrease brain infarct volume, which may be related to the promotion of p-CREB protein expression level.

Objective:To explore the correlation of serum neurogenic exosome MicroRNA-211-5p(miR-211-5p)levels and brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)levels with cognitive impairment in patients with Parkinson's disease and their diagnostic value.Methods:A total of 80 patients with Parkinson's disease(PD)admitted to the Second Hospital of Jiaxing City from January 2017 to April 2018 were enrolled.According to the Montreal cognitive assessment scale, patients were divided into the cognitive impairment group(n=36)and the non-cognitive impairment group(n=44). Meanwhile, 30 healthy people who took health check-ups during the same period were selected as the control group.Exosomes were extracted from peripheral blood of subjects by using the ExoQuick kit, and the neurogenic exosomes were separated by an L1 cell adhesion molecule(L1CAM)biotinylated antibody.BDNF levels in the exosomes were measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), and the expression level of miR-211-5p in the exosome was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-QPCR).Results:There was a correlation between BDNF and miR-211-5p( r=-0.805, P<0.001)in serum neurogenic exosomes( r=-0.805, P<0.001). BDNF was correlated with miR-211-5p in both the PD and control groups( r=-0.785 and-0.867, P=0.002 and 0.001). The miR-211-5p level was higher and the BDNF level was lower in the PD group than in the control group(0.30±0.08 vs. 0.17±0.04, 0.55±0.06 mg/L vs. 0.75±0.06 mg/L, t=7.125 and 6.368, P=0.000 and 0.000). The BDNF level was lower(0.45±0.07 mg/L vs.0.63±0.07 6.368 and 0.75±0.08 mg/L, t=8.999 and 7.608, P=0.000 and 0.000)and the MiR-211-5p level was higher(0.36±0.07 vs. 0.24±0.05 and 0.17±0.04, t=10.923 and 7.520, P=0.000 and 0.000)in the cognitive impairment group than in the non-cognitive impairment and control groups.The receiver-operating characteristics(ROC)curve showed that the area under the curve of miR-211-5p as a measure for cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease was 0.860(95% CI: 0.770-0.950)with a threshold of 0.32.The area under the curve of BDNF as a measure for cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease was 0.891(95% CI: 0.822-0.961)with a threshold of 0.67.BDNF seemed to be the target gene of miR-211-5p, since the latter could inhibit BDNF expression by reducing BDNF mRNA levels. Conclusions:Human serum neurogenic exosome miR-211-5p is highly expressed in PD patients with cognitive impairment and has the potential to be used as one of diagnostic parameters for cognitive impairment in PD patients.The high expression of serum neurogenic exosome miR-211-5p may be related to the inhibition of BDNF by reducing its mRNA levels.

Bronchial asthma is a common chronic respiratory disease in childhood.Lung function test is helpful for the diagnosis, treatment and dynamic monitoring of patients with asthma.Impulse oscillometry(IOS)has received more and more attention in the diagnosis and treatment of bronchial asthma because of its relatively simple operation requirements and the uniqueness of airway function detection.However, the clinical significance of IOS examination in clinical practice is not yet completely clear, and there is no consensus on clinical application.This article makes a review of IOS examination in the diagnosis, airway hyperreactivity test, asthma control and treatment of asthma in children, in order to help clinicians to make rational use of IOS examination.

Objective:To construct a nomogram prediction model for survival after radical surgical resection of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) based on the albumin-bilirubin index (ALBI), and to evaluate its predictive efficacy.Methods:From January 2016 to January 2020, 170 patients with ICC who underwent radical surgical resection at the People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 90 males and 80 females, aged (58.5±10.6) years old. Based on a ratio of 7∶3 by the random number table, the patients were divided into the training set ( n=117) and the internal validation set ( n=53). The training set was used for nomogram model construction, and the validation set was used for model validation and evaluation. Follow up was conducted through outpatient reexamination and telephone contact. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and a nomogram was drawn based on variables with a P<0.05 in multivariate Cox regression analysis. The predictive strength of the predictive model was evaluated by analyzing the consistency index (C-index), calibration curve, and clinical decision curve of the training and validation sets. Results:Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) ≥37 U/ml ( HR=1.99, 95% CI: 1.10-3.60, P=0.024), ALBI≥-2.80 ( HR=2.43, 95% CI: 1.40-4.22, P=0.002), vascular tumor thrombus ( HR=2.34, 95% CI: 1.40-3.92, P=0.001), and the 8th edition AJCC N1 staging ( HR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.21-3.95, P=0.010) were independent risk factors affecting postoperative survival of ICC patients after curative resection. The predictive model constructed based on the above variables was then evaluated, and the C-index of the model was 0.76. Calibration curve showed the predicted survival curve of ICC patients at 3 years after surgery based on the model was well-fitted to the 45° diagonal line which represented actual survival. Clinical decision curve analysis showed that the model had a significant positive net benefit in both the training and validation sets. Conclusion:The nomograph model for survival rate after radical resection of ICC was constructed based on four variables: ALBI, CA19-9, vascular tumor thrombus, and AJCC N staging (8th edition) in this study. This model provided a reference for more accurate prognosis evaluation and treatment selection plan for ICC patients.
