Objective:To investigate the association between door-in-door-out time (DIDO) and clinical outcome of patients with acute large vessel occlusion stroke (AIS-LVO) of anterior circulation after early endovascular therapy (EVT).Methods:The patients with AIS-LVO of anterior circulation who received EVT in the advanced stroke center of the Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College from February 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The baseline characteristics, time metrics and clinical outcomes were collected. DIDO was defined as the duration of time from arrival to referral at the primary stroke center, and the primary outcome was favorable clinical outcome, as evaluated by a modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 2 at 3 months after EVT. Univariate and multivariate regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between DIDO and early endovascular treatment clinical outcomes in patients with AIS-LVO.Results:A total of 320 patients [aged (69.6±10.2) years] were enrolled. The baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score and Alberta Stroke Program early CT score were 14 (11, 18) and 8 (7, 9). The DIDO time was 76 (50, 120) minutes. DIDO was not an independent correlation factor for clinical outcomes in patients with EVT in the overall population. However, in patients receiving early EVT (onset-to-reperfusion≤300 minutes), DIDO ( OR=1.030, 95% CI 1.001-1.059, P=0.041) was an independent correlating factor of clinical outcome in patients with EVT. According to the receiver operating characteristic curve, the DIDO cutoff of 74.5 minutes can be used as an important indicator of prehospital delay in referral to EVT for large vascular occlusion stroke. Door to computed tomography time ( OR=1.393, 95% CI 1.212-1.601, P<0.001) and computed tomography to transfer time ( OR=1.386, 95% CI 1.220-1.575, P<0.001) were factors associated with DIDO≤74.5 minutes in a multivariate analysis in this time frame. Conclusions:In transferred patients undergoing EVT early, DIDO has a signifificant impact on clinical outcome. DIDO can be used as an important quality control indicator to evaluate the referral process for patients with AIS-LVO.

Objective To investigate the effect of the endoscopic surveillance system in irrigating fluid absorption and bleeding during transurethral resection of the prostate.Methods In vitro trials,we simulated the fluid absorption and bleeding in the operation by using self-developed endoscopic surveillance system from January 2013 to June 2013.Continuous irrigation of 5 % mannitol solution,we extracted 5 times irrigating fluid (each time 100 ml and a total of 500 ml) in the process of irrigation and recorded absorption measurements of every time extraction rinses.At the same time,we dripped human whole blood 5 times(each time 5 ml and a total of 25 ml) in the process of irrigation and recorded the bleeding measurements.The above process was repeated three times to detect the accuracy and consistency of the endoscopic surveillance system.In clinical trials,50 cases of BPH were monitored in surgery and the biochemical index,hemodynamics,irrigating fluid absorption and bleeding were compared from October 2016 to April 2017.The included criteria contained as follow:the age of patients should be more than 50 years.The transabdominal ultrasound showed that the volume of prostate should be more than 60 ml.The maximal uroflowmetry should be less than 15ml/s.The IPSS scores should be more than 8.Based on the operative time,two groups (<60 min and ≥ 60 min) were classified.Results We developed the endoscopic surveillance system which is original in the world.In vitro trials,the average irrigating fluid were (100.60 ± 2.07) ml,(201.00±3.39) ml,(302.00±4.67) ml,(403.60±4.39) ml and (502.40 ±7.57) ml;and the average bleeding were (5.06 ± 0.11) ml,(10.10 ± 0.16) ml,(15.04 ± 0.15) ml,(20.06 ± 0.11) ml and (25.10 ± 0.16) ml.No significant difference was observed in all groups (P > 0.05).In clinical trials,we compared some preoperative and postoperative indexes.The average blood oxygen saturation were (94.46 ± 2.49) % and (92.39 ± 2.77) % (P < 0.01),the average Serum sodium ion concentration were (141.05 ± 2.52) mmol/L and (138.06 ± 4.27) mmol/L(P < 0.01),the average HGB were (143.50 ± 13.43) g/L and (137.04 ± 14.25) g/L(P < 0.01).The average HCT were (42.05 ± 4.09) % and (137.04 ± 14.25) % (P < 0.01).The average HR were (77.9 ± 7.6) beats per minute and (77.93 ± 6.93) beats per minute (P>0.05).The MAP were (90.32 ± 9.75) mmHg and (91.07±8.96)mmHg(P>0.05).The average serum potassium ion concentration were (4.13 ± 0.53) mmol/L and (4.09 ± 0.37) mmol/L (P > 0.05).The average irrigating fluid absorption of the group less than 60 minutes and the group equal or more than 60 minutes were (401.83 ± 279.23) ml and (885.25 ± 367.68) ml (P < 0.01).The average blood loss were (64.10 ±47.47) ml and (158.40 ± 65.22) ml(P <0.01).The preoperative and postoperative hemodynamic,blood biochemical and hematology showed difference in our trials.Irrigating fluid absorption and blood loss were positively associated with operation time.Conclusions The endoscopic surveillance system was safety and accuracy.It can offer real-time monitoring data and alarm mechanism for the surgeons that possibly improve operation safety.

The pathophysiological process of immune inflammatory response after severe trauma is extremely complex, especially manifested in the dynamic changes. In the physiological response state, the inflammatory and anti-inflammatory conditions are in a dynamic balance. The immune inflammatory response is relatively stable, avoiding excessive inflammatory reactions or immunosuppression and reducing further damage to the body. In the pathological response state, the dynamic balance between inflammatory and anti-inflammatory is broken, and it can also lead to persistent inflammatory-immunosuppression-catabolism syndrome (PICS). As a result, it increases serious complications such as uncontrolled inflammatory reactions, sepsis, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), and multiple organ failure (MOF). Current researches on post-traumatic immune inflammatory response have also expanded to the genetic level, indicating that the over-expression of genes and the generation and increase of immune response media are likely to be the key reasons for the disorder of immune inflammatory response. The author reviews the research progress of immune inflammatory response mechanism and related clinical intervention after severe trauma, in order to summarize the previous research results and explore the future research direction.

Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) are precursors of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Deregulated cellular energy metabolism is a critical hallmark of cancer cells. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma coactivator-1 alpha (PGC1α) plays vital role in mitochondrial energy metabolism. However, the molecular mechanism of PGC1α on OPMDs progression is less unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of knockdown PGC1α on human dysplastic oral keratinocytes (DOKs) comprehensively, including cell proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, xenograft tumor, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), mitochondrial electron transport chain complexes (ETC), reactive oxygen species (ROS), oxygen consumption rate (OCR), extracellular acidification rate (ECAR), and glucose uptake. We found that knockdown PGC1α significantly inhibited the proliferation of DOKs in vitro and tumor growth in vivo, induced S-phase arrest, and suppressed PI3K/Akt signaling pathway without affecting cell apoptosis. Mechanistically, downregulated of PGC1α decreased mtDNA, ETC, and OCR, while enhancing ROS, glucose uptake, ECAR, and glycolysis by regulating lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA). Moreover, SR18292 (an inhibitor of PGC1α) induced oxidative phosphorylation dysfunction of DOKs and declined DOK xenograft tumor progression. Thus, our work suggests that PGC1α plays a crucial role in cell proliferation by reprograming energy metabolism and interfering with energy metabolism, acting as a potential therapeutic target for OPMDs.
