Objective The present study was undertaken to investigate the properties of nonlinear dynamics of EEG and the changes in depth of anesthesia with real-time approximate entropy (ApEn) and complexity (Cx) nonlinear indexes monitoring during anesthesia. Methods EEG was recorded in 65 in-patients. They were randomly divided into 4 groups: isoflurane, sevoflurane, desflurane (n=15, respectively), and propofol intravenous anesthesia (n=20) groups. The EEG derived parameters ApEn and Cx non-linear indexes were calculated simultaneously during the whole operation including rest state with eyes closed, anesthetic induction, intraoperation, recovery, post-operation awaking. Results ApEn and Cx nonlinear indexes remained the highest during rest state. Both of them kept decreasing during anesthetic induction. They dropped to a relative lower value and leveled off in the intra-operation period. Both of them rose gradually during recovery period and returned to a high level in the post-operation awaking period (correspondingly, ApEn: 0.87, 0.78, 0.55, 0.64 and 0.83. Cx: 0.58, 0.54, 0.38, 0.46 and 0.57). Conclusions With ApEn and Cx non-linear indexes, changes in depth of anesthesia from EEG signal could be real-timely monitored and precisely measured. Nonlinear dynamic analysis might provide us with more information about consciousness and cognition during general anesthesia.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the influencing factors of mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B virus after combined immunological blockade, and to evaluate the effect of mother-to-child blockade, and to provide a basis for health policies and health interventions for preventing mother-to-child blockade of hepatitis B virus. Methods A total of 11 363 pairs of HBsAg positive pregnant women and their infants aged 7-12 months in Hainan Province from 2015 to 2020 were included in the study. The general situation, the situation of health care and delivery in this pregnancy and perinatal period, the detection of hepatitis B markers, the situation of antiviral therapy, the general situation of mother and infant during delivery and the implementation of blockade measures for mother-to-child transmission of hepatitis B were collected and analyzed. Results Among the 11 363 pairs of HBsAg positive pregnant women and their infants delivered in hospitals in Hainan province from 2015 to 2020, the positive rate of HBsAg in children at 7-12 months after birth was 1.47 %, and the difference in HBsAg positive rate of infants born in different years was not statistically significant (P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the positive rate of HBsAg among children born to pregnant women with different nationalities, educational levels, occupations, delivery modes, delivery places, obstetric operations and perineal laceration, abnormal perinatal period, children with different genders and premature delivery and perinatal (all P<0.05). There was significant difference in HBsAg positive rate among infants born to pregnant women of different ages, the positive rate of HBsAg of infants born to young pregnant women was higher than that of older pregnant women (P<0.05). The rate of antiviral therapy was low in HBeAg positive pregnant women, and the positive rate of HBsAg in their infants was 2.54%, which was higher than 0.83% in HBeAg negative pregnant women (P<0.05). Conclusions Combined immunological blockade with hepatitis B vaccine and hepatitis B immunoglobulin can effectively prevent the mother-to-child transmission of HBV. HBsAg-positive women can give birth at the right age, and HBeAg-positive pregnant women can be treated with antiviral therapy to block mother-to-child transmission, providing the important basis for the formulation of hepatitis B prevention and control strategies and measures.

Objective: To investigate the effects of oxLDL and HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor simvastatin on PKC activity, and level of cytosol ic free Ca 2+ in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Methods: Th e activity of PKC was determined by its ability to transfer phosphate from 32P-ATP to lysine-rich histone and level of cytosolic free calcium［Ca2+ ］i was measured by flow cytometric analysis loading with the Ca2+ dye F luo-3/Am. Results: oxLDL increased PKC total activity in a dose-de pendent manner and peaked after 12 min, then decreased slowly and maintained for at least 30 min, while oxLDL induced biphasic ［Ca2+］i responses includ ing the rapid initial transient phase and the sustained phase. Removal of extrac ellular Ca2+ did not inhibit the rapid transient phase, but abolished the sustained phase. When simvastatin was added, the activity of PKC wasmarkedly dec reased with no impairment to the initial peak response, but significantly reduce d the sustained phase. Conclusion: oxLDL can induced dynamic changes of signal transduction of PKC and level of cytosolic free Ca2+ in HUVEC, these 2 events are closely linked. The change of rapid initial transient phase i s the result of mobilization of Ca2+ from intracellular pool and the chang e of sustained phase is from the influx of extracellular Ca2+. The inhibit ion of PKC activity induced by simvastatin may contribute to the changes of ［Ca 2+］i.

This study aimed to explore Semaphrin4D (Sema4D) expression and clinical significance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to define the roles and mechanisms of Sema4D in regulating the malignant behaviors of A549 cells by small interfering RNA (siRNA). Firstly, immunohistochemistry revealed that Sema4D was more frequently expressed in NSCLC than in lung benign lesion (P<0.05) and its overexprssion was associated with low differentiation (P<0.05), poor pTNM staging (P<0.05) and occurrence of lymph node (LN) metastasis (P<0.05). Endogenous Sema4D expression was suppressed by Sema4D siRNA in A549 cells overexpressing Sema4D. Protein levels of Sema4D, total Akt and p-Akt were examined by Western blotting. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion abilities were measured by MTT assay and Transwell assay respectively. Results showed that Sema4D siRNA significantly suppressed phosphorylation of AKT in A549 cells, but it did not alter total AKT expression. In addition, efficient down-regulation of SemaD significantly inhibit cell proliferation (P<0.05), migration (P<0.05) and invasion (P<0.05) in A549 cells. These findings suggest that Sema4D might serve as a reliable tool for early prediction of NSCLC poor prognosis. Sema4D could play an important role in promoting tumor proliferation, migration and metastasis in the NSCLC, by influencing the Akt protein phosphorylation. Inhibition of Sema4D may be a useful approach for the treatment of NSCLC.

There is obvious allele disequilibrium in nasopharyngeal carcinoma at chromosome 3p, 9p, 6q, 11q, 13q and 14q. Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) susceptibility/suppressor gene candidates were obtained by molecular biology methods,such as cDNA representational difference ana-lysis. The functional research of NPC susceptibility/ suppressor gene candidates indicated: (1) The increased expression of Cx contributed to obstacles of gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC), and resulted an aberration of GJIC; (2) BRD7, a transcript factor, was associated with cell cycle regulation; (3) NAG7,an estrogen receptor repressor, inhibited the invasive potential of human NPC cells by regulating ERalpha expression and the H-ras/p-c-Raf and JNK/AP-1/MMP1 signaling pathways; (4) NGX6, a metastasis-associated protein, can negative-regulate EGF/Ras/MAPK signaling transduction pathway, and interact with ezrin protein to inhibit invasion and metastasis of NPC cells; (5) SPLUNC1, a secreted protein, can inhibit the bacterium clone formation, and is an innate immune molecule. These data will lay an important foundation for the NPC mechanism.
