AIM:To explose the possible existing pathway of intracellular signaling transduction in hypertensive induced by insulin in rat vascular smooth muscle cells proliferation which involved mitogen-activated protein kinase. METHODS:Male spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) aorta and WKY(6 weeks old) were isolated and then cultured to make the purified vascular smooth muscle cells.6-8th generation of VSMC were interfered with insulin in vitro . MAPK activity was determined by myelin basic protein method and its volume was measured with Western Blot. And [ 3 H]-TdR was used to measure DNA synthesis in VSMC proliferation. RESULTS: After the interfered with insulin the DNA synthesis was increased obviously in SHR group. MAPK activity and its contains in SHR were increased more than the control group. Protein kinase C inhibitor decreased MAPK activity induced by insulin. CONCLUSION:Proliferation of SHR VSMC in vitro was correlated with increased activity of MAPK. Insulin can affect MAPK induced activity. So an insulin-PKC-MAPK axis may exist in hypertensive VSMC.

OBJECTIVE: The analyze the relationship between secretory otitis media (SOM) and injury of tensor veli palatini (TVP) muscle injury after radiotherapy, then to explore the pathogenesis of SOM in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) after radiotherapy. METHOD: The cross section area (CSA) of TVP and medial pterygoid (MP) muscle were measured in MRI of 32 patients with NPC before and after radiotherapy, meanwhile the incidence of SOM were surveyed after radiotherapy, then to analyze the relationship between the change of TVP and the incidence of SOM after radiotherapy. RESULT: Of 48 ears without SOM before radiotherapy, 27 ears developed post-irradiation SOM, including 24 ears with TVP atrophy and 3 ears without TVP atrophy, and 21 ears had no post-irradiation SOM, including 8 ears with TVP atrophy and 13 ears without TVP atrophy. chi2 test showed significant difference (P < 0.01). It indicated that post-irradiation SOM have correlation with TVP atrophy. The more possibility of TVP atrophy occurred after long time radiotherapy. CONCLUSION The atrophy of TVP in patients with NPC usually occurs 6 months after radiotherapy, and this may result in the post-irradiation SOM. The pathogenesis of post-irradiation SOM need further study functionally.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of serum resistin in juvenile idiopathic arthritis(JIA) patients.Methods:A prospective observational study was performed and 32 cases of patients with systemic onset JIA(SOJIA)(SOJIA group) in children admitted to the nephrorheumatology and outpatient were enrolled at Children′s Hospital of Shanghai between October 2013 and September 2015, 52 cases of other types(N-SOJIA group), and 33 cases of other rheumatic diseases(other rheumatic diseases group), 30 cases of children undergoing health checkups in the child health outpatient clinic(healthy control group)were involved as well.Serum resistin levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), and comprehensive analysis was carried out with clinical data and related laboratory findings.The basic data of gender, age and body mass index(BMI) of each group were collected, and the duration of disease in children in JIA group, rheumatoid factor, antinuclear antibody, white blood cell, hemoglobin, platelet, C reacting protein(CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), clinical manifestations and current drug use were collected.Using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis of sensitivity and specificity resistin levels in diagnostic systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the age, gender and BMI of children in SOJIA group, N-SOJIA group, other rheumatism group and healthy control group.Children in the SOJIA group and the N-SOJIA group had arthritis in clinical manifestations.Fever and rash were more common in the SOJIA group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Laboratory results showed that the sedimentation rates of white blood cells, CRP, and red blood cells were in the SOJIA group was significantly elevated.The antinuclear antibody was mainly found in the N-SOJIA group with a higher positive rate ( P<0.05). The mean serum resistin in the SOJIA group [(17.98±13.78) mg/L] was higher compared to the healthy control group [(1.84±1.66) mg/L], other rheumatic diseases group [(8.00±6.28) mg/L]and the N-SOJIA group [(9.86±6.11) mg/L], the differences were statistically significant ( F=21.625, P<0.01). Resistin was positively correlated with white blood cells and CRP( r=0.532, 0.351, all P<0.05), and had no correlation with BMI, hemoglobin, platelets, and ESR( r=0.059, -0.176, 0.152, 0.203, all P>0.05). Based on serum resistin≥5.55 mg/L as the positive threshold value, the area under ROC curve was 0.802, and the sensitivity and specificity in diagnosis of SOJIA was 96.9% and 49.6%, respectively. Conclusions:Serum resistin is increased in patients with JIA, especially in SOJIA increased significantly; Serum resistin can be used for the diagnosis of SOJIA, and ≥5.55 mg/L can be a suitable cut-off level.

Advanced radiotherapy technology enables the dose to more accurately conform to the tumor target area of the patient, providing accurate treatment for the patient, but the gradient of the patient's radiation dose at the tumor edge is getting larger, which putting forward higher requirements for radiotherapy dose verification. The dose verification system software KylinRay-Dose4D can verify the patient's pre-treatment plan and the in vivo/on-line dose during the patient's treatment, providing important reference for the physicist to modify the radiotherapy plan and ensuring that the patient receives accurate treatment. This study introduces the overall design and key technologies of KylinRay-Dose4D, and tests the pre-treatment plan dose checking calculation and 2D/3D dose verification through clinical cases. The test results showed that the 2D/3D gamma pass rate (3 mm/3%) of KylinRay-Dose4D reconstructed dose compared with TPS plan dose and measured dose is larger than 95%, which indicating that the reconstructed dose of KylinRay-Dose4D meets the requirement of clinical application.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Huashi Runzao prescription （HRP） on the histopathological injury and function of submandibular gland in naive non-obese diabetic （NOD/Ltj） mouse model of Sjögren's syndrome （SS） and its regulatory effect on aquaporin 5 （AQP5） expression in submandibular gland cells. MethodThe SS model was induced in NOD/Ltj mice. The NOD/Ltj female mice aged nine weeks were selected and randomly assigned into model group，HRP group （7.15 g·kg^-1·d^-1），and hydroxychloroquine （HCQ） group （1.30 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and female BALB/c mice in the same age were selected and assigned into the normal group， with six mice in each group. Drug intervention lasted eight weeks. The water consumption and salivary flow rate （SFR） of each group were recorded. The pathological staining results of the submandibular gland of mice in each group were observed and scored. AQP5 expression was determined by immunohistochemistry （IHC） and Western blot. ResultCompared with the normal group， the model group showed increased water consumption （P<0.05） and reduced SFR （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the HRP group showed decreased water consumption （P<0.05） and increased SFR （P<0.05）， and the HCQ group showed increased SFR （P<0.05）. In terms of histopathological results of the submandibular gland，compared with the normal group，the model group showed increased pathological score， number of lymphocyte infiltration foci，and percentage of lymphatic infiltration area （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the HRP group showed reduced pathological scores and number of lymphocyte infiltration foci （P<0.05）， and the HRP group and the HCQ group showed reduced percentage of lymphatic infiltration area（P<0.05）. The results of IHC and Western blot showed that compared with the normal group，the model group showed down-regulated expression level of AQP5 protein （P<0.05）， and compared with the model group and the HCQ group，the HRP group showed up-regulated expression level of AQP5 protein （P<0.05）. ConclusionHRP can improve the secretion function of submandibular gland acinous cells and glandular structure injury in SS model mice， and its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of AQP5 protein expression level in submandibular gland cells.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.
