Objective:To investigate the differences in the expression levels of miR-196a-5p and miR-105-5p in serum of patients with benign and malignant pulmonary nodules and their diagnostic value of malignant pulmonary nodules.Methods:The expression levels of miRNAs in cancer tissues of lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell carcinoma and paracancerous tissues in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database were analyzed, and the miRNAs with significantly different expression levels in cancer tissues and paracancerous tissues were selected as target miRNAs. A total of 72 patients with pulmonary nodules admitted to Weifang People′s Hospital of Shandong Province from June 2019 to July 2020 were selected. The expression levels of target miRNAs in serum of patients with pulmonary nodules were detected by qRT-PCR. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare the diagnostic value of target miRNAs with tumor markers Cyfra21-1, NSE and CEA in malignant pulmonary nodules.Results:After screening, the target miRNAs were identified as miR-196a-5p and miR-105-5p. Twenty-six patients in the benign pulmonary nodules group and 46 patients in the malignant pulmonary nodules group were included. The levels of serum miR-196a-5p [ M ( P25, P75)] in the benign and malignant nodules group were 0.63 (0.09, 2.15) and 1.93(0.93, 4.97) respectively, and the levels of miR-105-5p in the two groups were 2.03 (0.54, 7.95) and 10.65 (5.94, 18.39) respectively. Compared with the benign pulmonary nodules group, the levels of serum miR-196a-5p and miR-105-5p in the malignant pulmonary nodules group were increased, and there were statistically significant differences ( Z=-3.083, P=0.002; Z=-4.092, P<0.001). The levels of serum Cyfra21-1 in the benign and malignant pulmonary nodules group were 2.48 (1.84, 3.78) and 2.20 (1.47, 3.32) μg/L respectively, the levels of serum NSE in the two groups were 15.58 (12.45, 18.95) and 14.43 (12.07, 17.87) μg/L respectively, and the levels of serum CEA in the two groups were 1.16 (0.55, 2.11) and 1.17 (0.61, 1.68) μg/L respectively. There were no significant differences in serum Cyfra21-1, NSE and CEA between the benign and malignant pulmonary nodules group ( Z=-1.161, P=0.246; Z=-0.305, P=0.761; Z=-0.271, P=0.786). The area under the curve (AUC) of the combination of miR-196a-5p and miR-105-5p for the diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules was 0.762 (sensitivity 89.1%, specificity 61.5%), which was higher than the value of the combination of Cyfra21-1, NSE and CEA for the diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules (AUC=0.591, sensitivity 58.7%, specificity 64.5%). Conclusion:The combination of serum miR-196a-5p and miR-105-5p can assist in the diagnosis of malignant pulmonary nodules and has higher diagnostic value.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of Ebselen on mitochondrial damage and its influence to Cytochrome C expression and the neuronal apoptosis after spinal cord injury in rats. Methods Sixty adult SD rats were ran-domly divided into 5 groups (12 each group). Spinal cord injury model was made using Allen's method. Sham operation group received only laminectomy;SCI group received laminectomy and spinal trauma;Saline group received saline injection intraperitoneally (0.1%DMSO) after injury;methylprednisolone group received 30 mg/kg methylprednisolone injection intra-peritoneally, ebselen group received 10 mg/kg ebselen injection intraperitoneally. The malonaldehyde (MDA) and glutathi-one (GSH)level at the injured sites of the spinal cord were detected 24 hours after trauma, and the expression level of Cyto-chrome C was also observed. Finally, neuronal apoptosis was identified by TUNEL staining. Results MDA level in the Eb-selen group was significantly lower than that in the SCI group, and GSH level was significantly elevated in the Ebselen group compared with SCI group (P<0.01). Expression of Cytochrome C in Ebselen group was lower than that in SCI group shown by Western blot, and the neuronal apoptosis in Ebselen group reduced significantly too compared with SCI group (P<0.01). Conclusion Ebselen can alleviate peroxidation,prohibit expression of Cytochrome C and inhibit neuronal apoptosis,thus it shows a protective effect to experimental acute SCI.

Objective To investigate the effects of hydrogen sulfide on autophagy and the apoptosis after acute spinal cord injury in rats. Methods Thirty-six adult male SD rats (250-300 g) were randomly divided into three groups (n=12 for each group):sham operation group (Sham group), spinal cord injury group (Model group) and hydrogen sulfide pre-treatment group (H2S group). Allen’s method was used to establish the rat model of spinal cord injury. Rats of sham operation group re?ceived only laminectomy. Rats of H2S group received sodium hydrosulphide injection intraperitoneally (50μmol/kg) 1h after spinal cord injury, and Model group was given the same amount of saline solution. Rats in the three groups were sacrificed 24 h after spinal cord injury, then the spinal cord was removed. The expressions of LC3, p70S6K and Cleaved caspase-3 were detected by Western blot assay. The expression of LC3 was also detected by immunofluorescence. The cell apoptosis was as?sessed by TUNEL stain. Results Compared with Sham group, the expression levels of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand Cleaved caspase-3 were increased in Model group, but the expression of p70S6K decreased and cell apoptosis increased in Model group (P<0.01). Compared with Model group, the expression levels of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰand Cleaved caspase-3 were decreased significant?ly, while the expression of p70S6K increased and cell apoptosis decreased significantly in H2S group (P < 0.01). Conclu?sion Hydrogen sulfide can inhibit autophagy and reduce cell apoptosis after acute spinal cord injury in rats.

Objective To explore the prophylactic effect of methylprednisolone combined with granisetron on postoperative nausea and vomiting.Methods Two hundred patients scheduled for lumpectomy of breast were randomly divided into four groups with 50 cases each.The patients in group M1 received a pre-anesthesia intravenous doses of methylprednisolone 25 mg,the patients in group M2 were injected methylpredsisolone 25 mg repeatedly four hours later,in group D received a pre-anesthesia doses of dexamethasone 5 mg,in group N normal saline 2 ml.All the four groups of patients received granisetron 3 mg intravenously at the end of surgery.The incidence of nausea and vomiting in the 24 hours were observed.Results The PONV incidences of group M1,M2,D,N were 36%,18%,38% and 58%.Both group M1,M2 and D significantly decreased the total inci-dence of PONV (P <0.05)in the 24 h.The incidence of PONV was significantly lower in group M2, compared with group M1 and group D respectively (P <0.05).Conclusion Methylprednisolone-gran-isetron combination is as equally effective as dexamethasone-granisetron combination for preventing PONV in lumpectomy,but repeated methylprednisolone after 4 h is more effective than dexametha-sone and single-used methylprednisolone.

Objective To investigate the effect of fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP) pretreatment on myocardial connexin 43 (Cx43) in a rat model of acute myocardial ischemia.Methods Thirty-six male Sprague Dawley rats (aged 8-12 weeks and weighing 220-280 g) were randomly divided into three groups (n =12 each):sham operation group (group S),ischemia group (group Ⅰ) and FDP + ischemia group (group F).The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal injection of 10％ chloral hydrate 40 mg/100 g,then tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated.Acute myocardial ischemia was induced by occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery for 30 minutes.Myocardial ischemia was verified by elevation of the S-T segment on echocardiogram (EGG).In group F,FDP 100 mg/kg was injected intravenously 10 minutes before ischemia.The hearts were removed after 30 minutes of myocardial ischemia.The myocardial infarct size (IS) and area at risk (AAR) were measured and the IS/AAR ratio was calculated.The expression of myocardial Cx43 protein was determined by immunohistochemestry and analysis of mean optical density.Results The severities of arrhythmia were significantly higher in groups F and I than in group S,while lower in group F than in group Ⅰ (P＜ 0.05).The IS/AAR ratio was significantly lower in group F than in group Ⅰ.The myocardial Cx43 protein expression was down-regulated in group Ⅰ and group F as compared with group S,and was significantly lower in group Ⅰ than in group F.Conclusion FDP pretreatment can protect myocardium against acute ischemia by up-regulation of myocardial Cx43 expression.
