Objective To isolate and cultivate Long-Evans rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and identify their biological characteristics. Methods BMSCs were obtained from femurs of Long-Evan rats and dealt with 0.85 NH4Cl. The cell growth curve and cell cycle were measured and surface antigens were detected by flow cytometry. Osteoblast differentiation was studied by Alizarin red staining. Results BMSCs had active proliferative ability. The growth velocity of passage 5 cells was slower than that of passage 3 cells. The cell cycle analysis showed that 93.79 of BMSCs was at G0/G1 phase. BMSCs were positive for CD29 and CD44, but negative for CD45. Alizarin red staining of BMSCs after osteoblast induction was positive. Conclusion Highly purified BMSCs obtained from Long-Evan rats by 0.85 NH4Cl show stable biological properties.

ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of non-linear dynamics characteristic of electroencephalogram (EEG) under three states (eyes closed, mental arithmetic with eyes closed and orientation test with eyes closed), and the application of non-linear dynamic analysis for cognitive function research.MethodsEEG was recorded in 30 healthy young volunteers at three stages. The correlation dimension (D2) and approximate entropy (ApEn) were calculated for all subjects.ResultsD2 and ApEn increased significantly during mental tasks as compared to the rest state with eyes closed (P<0.01). In different mental tasks, the complexity of mental functions and the regions involved in the cognitive task were different.ConclusionNon-linear analysis methods are appropriate for the study of cognitive functions and can help to understand the working mechanism of brain during mental activities.

ObjectiveTo investigate the changes of non-linear dynamics characteristic of EEG in patient with acute cerebral stroke under eyes closed state. MethodsEEG were recorded in 31 patients with acute cerebral infarction and 22 healthy volunteers under eyes closed state. Correlation dimension (D2) and Approximate Entropy (ApEn) were calculated for all subjects. ResultsD2 and ApEn of uninjured forehead cortex (FP1,FP2)reduced significantly in the group of cerebral infarction as compared with the group of normal control at eyes closed state. ConclusionDynamic analysis based on D2 and ApEn topographic maps might be helpful in understand the changes of mental functions after stroke, that can be used in the study of mental function.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate therapeutic efficacy and safety of Compound muni ziqi granules in the adjuvant treatment of chloasma, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS; Retrieved from Chinese Journal Full-text Database (CJFD), China Scientific Journal Database (CSJD), Wanfang database, Medline and Embase, randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about therapeutic efficacy (total response rate, cure rate, the decrease level of E2, FSH and LH in serum) and safety of Compound muni ziqi granules alone or combined with routine drug (trial group) vs. routine drug (control group) in the treatment of chloasma were collected. Meta-analysis was conducted by using Rev Man 5. 3 statistical software after data extraction of clinical studies meeting inclusion criteria and quality evaluation with Cochrane systematic evaluator manual 5. 1. 0. RESULTS: Totally 12 RCTs were enrolled, involving 1 100 patients. Results of Meta-analysis showed that total response rate [OR=2. 84, 95％CI(2. 20, 3. 67), P<0. 001], cure rate [OR=2. 11, 95％CI(1. 59, 2. 79),P<0. 001],decrease level of Ez [OR=-98. 64, 95％ CI (-110. 84, -86. 44), P <0. 001], decrease level of FSH [OR=-1. 85, 95％CI(-2. 58,-1. 11),P<0. 001] and decrease level of LH [OR= - 5. 85, 95％ CI (-6. 83, -4. 87), P<0. 001] in trial group were significantly better than control group, with statistical significance. In trial group, a few patients suffered from the increase of menstruation, the decrease of menstruation, temporary pigmentation and transient burnout; but all symptoms did not affect the treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Compound muni ziqi granules show definite clinical efficacy and good response rate in the adjuvant treatment of chloasma with mild ADR.

Objective:To compare the effects of extrafine-particle versus fine-particle inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) combined with formoterol on clinical symptoms, airway inflammation and airway function in patients with bronchial asthma (referred to as asthma).Methods:This prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial enrolled a total of 111 patients diagnose of asthma and cough variant asthma with forced expired volume in one second (FEV 1) percentage of predicted (FEV 1%pred) >70% in Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from November 2020 to October 2022. The patients were divided into observation group (57 cases) and control group (54 cases) by random digits table method. The patients in observation group were treated with extrafine-particle ICS combined with formoterol, while the patients in control group were treated with fine-particle ICS combined with formoterol. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. During treatment 10 patients lost follow up and a total of 101 patients complete the final study: 52 cases in observation group and 49 cases in control group. At baseline, the asthma control test (ACT) score was calculated to evaluate the clinical symptoms, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) was applied to evaluate the airway inflammatory level, and the pulmonary function test and bronchodilation test were perfromed. The symptom relief time was record. After treatment, all of the parameters were reevaluated. Results:The FEV 1, peak expiratory flow (PEF), forced expired flow at 50% of forced vital capacity (MEF 50), forced expired flow at 25% of forced vital capacity (MEF 25), maximal expiratory flow-volume curve (MMEF) and ACT score after treatment in both groups were significantly improved compared to baseline, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). The improvement of ACT score in observation group was significantly higher than that in control group: (5.90 ± 2.25) scores vs. (4.10 ± 2.18) scores, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the symptom relief time and the improvement rates of FEV 1, PEF, MEF 50, MEF 25, MMEF between the two groups ( P>0.05). Further subgroup analysis was performed on 78 patients with small airway dysfunction, 39 patients were treated with extrafine-particle ICS combined with formoterol (observation subgroup), and 39 patients were treated with fine-particle ICS combined with formoterol (control subgroup). The improvement of ACT score in observation subgroup was significantly higher than that in control subgroup: (6.05 ± 2.22) scores vs. (3.95 ± 2.19) scores, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the symptom relief time and the improvement rates of FEV 1, PEF, MEF 50, MEF 25, MMEF between the two subgroups ( P>0.05). Spearman correlation analysis result showed that the improvement rates of MEF 50, MEF 25 and MMEF after treatment were positive correlated with baseline bronchodilator responses of FEV 1, FEV 1/FVC, MEF 50, MEF 25, MMEF ( r = 0.22 to 0.58, P<0.05), but not with baseline bronchodilator responses of PEF ( P>0.05). In terms of safety, neither of the two treatments had major adverse reactions that affect treatment. Conclusions:For asthma patients with baseline FEV 1%pred>70%, the extrafine-particle ICS combined with formoterol has more significantly improved of clinical symptoms compared to fine-particle ICS combined with formoterol, and potentially with better safety profile. The improvement ratio of small airway function parameters in baseline bronchodilation test could potentially predict treatment response.

Objective:To analyze the application value of serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA)19-9 and CA242 in screening colorectal cancer with a meta-analysis.Methods:A literature search was conducted in the databases of Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP to identify studies on applying CEA, CA19-9 and CA242 for detection of colorectal cancer from the establishment of the databases to October 2023. The Quality Evaluation Tool of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. Stata17.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis. Deeks funnel plot was used to analyze publication bias.Results:A total of 34 articles of case-control studies met the criteria. Meta-analysis revealed that the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of CEA, CA19-9 and CA242 were all low, the area under the curve (AUC) of summary receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.62, 0.63 and 0.73, the sensitivity was 0.42, 0.27 and 0.36, respectively. The combined detection of CEA+CA19-9+CA242 significantly improved the pooled diagnostic accuracy (AUC: 0.92(95% CI: 0.89-0.94) and sensitivity: 0.75(95% CI: 0.65-0.83)), the specificity was mildly reduced (dropped from above 0.95 to 0.90(95% CI 0.87-0.93)). The Deek′s test indicated no publication bias. Conclusions:Combined detection of CEA+CA19-9+CA242 can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity in screening colorectal cancer with a compromised specificity. However, due to the lack of data, whether it can meet the demand for opportunistic screening in the physical examination population needs to be confirmed.
