BACKGROUND: Vascular smooth muscle cell(VSMC) is one of the major cell components of vascular wall and its pathologic effects in atherosclerosis has been verified and recognized. How to inhibit VSMC proliferation and migration becomes one of the hotspots in the researches regarding the prevention of coronary heart disease(CHD).OBJECTIVE: To observe the impacts of diethyl-2, 6-diethyl-4-furny-1,4-dihydropyridine-3, 5-dicarboxylate(EFDP) on angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ)-induced VSMC proliferation.DESIGN: A randomized controlled study based on VSMC of rabbit' s thoracic aorta cultured in vitro.SETTING: Department of cardiology in a military medical university of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The study was conducted in the Laboratory of Cardiology of Xijing Hospital of the Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA between August 2003 and June 2004. Five New Zealand rabbits were selected for the harvest of VSMC. Animal cells were randomly divided into control group, Ang Ⅱ group and Ang Ⅱ + EFDP group(EFDP group).METHODS: New Zealand rabbits were fed by high-fat food. Thoracic aorta was harvested for the separation and culture of VSMC after the injury in thoracic aorta intima by sacculus. The experiment introduced the cultured rabbit VSMC to observe the impacts of EFDP on VSMC DNA synthesis and its time effect during VSMC proliferation promoted by Ang Ⅱ by 3H-TdR method.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: 3H-TdR intensity of radio activity in cells of each group to display the DNA synthesis during VSMC proliferation process.RESULTS: Ang Ⅱ could promote the synthesis of rabbit VSMC DNA, which hit its peak at the 36th hour compared with that of control group(358. 00± 49.01 vs 272.42 ± 54.96, P ＜ 0. 01 ) . EFDP had significant inhibitive effects on Ang Ⅱ-induced VSMC proliferation, which also displayed a significant dose-dependent relationship, i.e. with the elevation of EFDP concentration, its inhibitive rate on VSMC proliferation also gradually increased. At the 36th hour, 78.40 μ mol/L of EFDP had more significant effect than that of 0. 08 μmol/L of EFDP(281.50 ± 15.28 vs 349. 25 ±32.10, P＜ 0. 05).CONCLUSION: EFDP can significantly inhibit Ang Ⅱ-induced rabbit VSMC proliferation with certain dose-effect dependency and time responses,which provides a theoretical gist for the primary rehabilitative prevention of atherosclerosis.

Objective:To develop and validate a MRI-based radiomics nomogram combining with radiomics signature and clinical factors for the preoperative differentiation of benign parotid gland tumors (BPGT) and malignant parotid gland tumors (MPGT).Methods:From January 2015 to May 2020, 86 patients with parotid tumors confirmed by surgical pathology in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were enrolled as training sets, and 35 patients in the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital from January 2013 to January 2020 were enrolled as independent external validation sets. The logistic regression was used to establish a clinical-factors model based on demographics and MRI findings. Radiomics features were extracted from preoperative T 1WI and fat-saturated T 2WI (fs-T 2WI), a radiomics signature model was constructed, and a radiomics score (Rad-Score) was calculated. A combined diagnostic model and nomogram combining with the Rad-score and independent clinical factors was constructed using multivariate logistic regression analysis. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was used to evaluate the performance of each model and DeLong test was used for comparison of area under the ROC curve (AUC). Results:The logistic regression results showed that deep lobe involvement (OR=3.285, P=0.040) and surrounding tissue invasion (OR=15.919, P=0.013) were independent factors for MPGT and constructed the clinical-factors model. A total of 19 features were extracted from the joint T 1WI and fs-T 2WI to build the radiomics signature model. The combined diagnostic model and nomogram incorporating deep lobe involvement, surrounding tissue invasion and Rad-score were established. The AUCs of the clinical-factors model, radiomics signature model and combined diagnostic model for differentiating BPGT from MPGT for the training and validation sets were 0.758, 0.951, 0.953 and 0.752, 0.941 and 0.964 respectively. The AUCs of the radiomics signature model and the combined diagnostic model were significantly higher than those of the clinical-factors model for both training and validation sets (training set: Z=3.95, 4.31, both P<0.001; validation set: Z=2.16, 2.67, P=0.031, 0.008). There was no statistical difference in AUCs between the radiomics signature model and combined diagnostic model (training set: Z=0.39, P=0.697; validation set: Z=1.10, P=0.273). Conclusions:The MRI-based radiomics signature model and radiomics nomogram incorporating deep lobe involvement, surrounding tissue invasion, and Rad-score showed favorable predictive efficacy for differentiating BPGT from MPGT.

Objective To evaluate the risk of occupational noise-induced hearing loss in workers in a metal tool manufacturing enterprise, and to carry out risk classification and risk management. Methods A total of 91 male noise-exposed workers from a metal tool manufacturing enterprise in Hebei Province were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. The work site survey on occupational health and the measurement on individual noise exposure level were carried out. The ISO 1999：2013 (E) Acoustics-Estimation of Noise-Induced Hearing Loss was used to predict the risk of high frequency hearing loss (HFHL) and occupational noise-induced deafness (ONID). The risk classification and risk management were conducted using the WS/T 754-2016 Guideline for Risk Management of Occupational Noise Hazard (hereinafter referred to as WS/T 754-2016). Results The individual noise exposure intensity of workers in the six work sites of the enterprise, including blade workers, sheet punching workers, roller forging workers (hoe), hole punching workers, roller forging workers(shovels), and carpenters, exceeded the national occupational exposure limit, with the maximum volume of 91.2-104.1 dB(A). Among these workers, the positions of blade workers, sheet punching workers, and roller forging workers (hoe) were identified as critical control points for noise hazards in the enterprise. The detection rates of HFHL and ONID were 24.2% and 8.8%, respectively. The risk prediction results showed that, based on the actual noise exposure time and age of the study subjects, the risk of HFHL and ONID ranged from 1.7%-48.8% and 0.0%-29.5%, respectively. The risks of HFHL caused solely by occupational noise exposure when working up to 50.0, 55.0, and 60.0 years of age were 11.4% to 64.7%, 16.4% to 65.1%, and 17.2% to 59.4%, respectively. The risks of ONID caused solely by occupational noise exposure were 0.0% to 45.5%, 4.2% to 51.7%, and 5.9% to 57.4%, respectively. Except for the blade workers, the predicted median of potential noise-induced permanent threshold shifts (NIPTS) in the other five positions were lower than the actual values of NIPTS, with the difference ranging from 3.0-28.3 dB, and 73.3% of them underestimated by 10.0 dB or more. Conclusion The outcome of noise exposure on the hearing of workers in this enterprise are severe. Risk management should be conducted according to the WS/T 755-2016.
