Objective To determine whether pyloric measurements with ultrasound, that muscle thickness and channel of pyloric, correlated with weight and age in patients with hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 111 cases diagnosed with HPS by operation from 2008 to 2012. Pearson correlation and linear regression analyses were used to determine if there were sta?tistically signiifcant associations between these combinations of factors:age and pyloric muscle thickness, weight and pyloric muscle thickness, age and pyloric length, and weight and pyloric length. Results Patients’mean age was 39.1 d (8-92 days). Their mean weight was 4.3 kg (2.2-7.9 kg). Mean pyloric muscle thickness was 4.8 mm (2-4.6 mm), and mean pyloric length was 17.5 mm (12-23.5 mm). Pearson correlation coefifcient analysis showed a signiifcant correlation between age and muscle thickness (r=0.6, P<0.001) as well as weight and muscle thickness (r=0.486, P<0.001). No signiifcant correlation was found be?tween pyloric length and age or weight. Linear regression analysis demonstrated similar results. Conclusions In patients with HPS, pyloric muscle thickness was directly related to age and weight. Smaller and younger infants with suspected diagnosis of HPS should be followed up even though the minimum diagnostic criterion for muscle thickness or length was not found on ultrasound.

Objective:To study the effect of Snyder's hope theory nursing on the scores of psychological stress, quality of life and neurological function in patients with acute hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.Methods:From June 2017 to December 2018, 100 patients with acute hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University were selected as the study object. According to the random number table, the patients were divided into observation group (50 cases) and control group (50 cases).The patients in the control group were given routine rehabilitation nursing mode, and the patients in the observation group received Snyder′s hope theory nursing on the basis of the control group. The rescue time, the recovery time and the incidence of complications of the two groups were compared. The degree of anxiety and depression, neurological function, quality of life of the patients were evaluated by Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NHISS), Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS) and SF-36.Results:The rescue time and recovery time were (58.13±10.36) min, (12.7±5.3) d in the observation group, and (85.71±8.30) min, (21.1±3.3) d in the control group, and there were significant differences between the two groups ( t values were 14.691, 10.646, P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in SAS, SDS, NIHSS, GCS, SF-36 score before intervention between the two groups ( P> 0.05).The scores of SAS, NIHSS, GCS after intervention were (40.56±1.72), (11.23±2.85), (13.12±4.11) points in the observation group, and (46.56±1.62), (14.97±4.55), (11.13±3.15) points in the control group, and there were significant differences between the two groups ( t values were 17.956, 4.926, 3.212, P<0.01). There were significant differences in SF-36 after intervention between the two groups( t values were 7.124-13.014, all P<0.01). The incidence of complications was 8.0%(4/50) in the observation group, and 24.0%(12/50) in the control group, and there was significant difference between the two groups( χ2 value was 4.762, P<0.05). Conclusions:Snyder's hope theory nursing has a significant effect on the improvement of anxiety and depression in patients with acute hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage, which is worth popularizing.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the characteristics of genetic variants in 134 patients diagnosed with Acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: Clinical data of the 134 patients with AML (non-acute promyelocytic leukemia) initially diagnosed at the 940th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army from June 2017 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Potential variants of AML-related genes were detected by next-generation sequencing, and the frequency of variants was analyzed by using SPSS v26.0 software, and likelihood ratio χ² test and Fisher exact test were used for data analysis. RESULTS: The patients had included 72 males and 62 females, with a gender ratio of 1.7 : 1 and a median age of 51 years (9 ~ 86 years old). One hundred twenty patients (76.1%) had harbored at least one genetic variant, including 26 (19.4%) having a single variant, 27 (20.1%) having two variants, and 49 (36.6%) having >= 3 variants. 32 (23.9%) had no detectable variants. Genetic variants detected in over 10% of the 134 patients had included NPM1 (n = 24, 17.91%), FLT3-ITD (n = 21, 15.67%), DNMT3A (n = 20, 14.93%), CEBPA (single variant; n = 14, 10.45%), TET2 (n = 14, 10.45%), and NRAS (n = 14, 10.45%). The patients were also divided into low risk, intermediate risk and high risk groups based on their chromosomal karyotypes. The mutational rates for genes in different groups have varied, with 19 patients from the low risk group harboring variants of NRAS (n = 4, 21.05%), KRAS (n = 4, 21.05%), and KIT (n = 2, 10.53%); and 96 patients from the intermediate risk group harboring variants of NPM1 (n = 24, 25.00%), FLT3-ITD (n = 20, 20.83%), DNMT3A (n = 18, 18.75%), CEBPA (n = 12, 12.50%), and TET2 genes (n = 12, 12.50%). The mutational frequencies for the 19 patients from the high risk group were ASXL1 (n = 7, 21.05%), NRAS (n = 3, 15.97%), TP53 (n = 3, 15.79%), and EZH2 (n = 2, 10.53%). A significant difference was found in the frequencies of KIT, NPM1, FLT3-ITD, DNMT3A, and ASXL1 gene variants among the low-risk, medium-risk, and high-risk groups. CONCLUSION AML patients have a high frequency for genetic variants, with 76.1% harboring at least one variant. The frequency of genetic variants have varied among patients with different chromosomal karyotypes, and there are apparent dominant variants. KIT, NPM1, FLT3-ITD, DNMT3A, and ASXL1 may be used as prognostic factors for evaluating their prognosis.

Objective:To observe the effects of acupuncture on the expression of circRNA_011989 and circRNA_009775 in the hippocampal tissue of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury(CIRI)rats.Methods:CIRI model rats were prepared by the thread bolus method and treated by means of acupuncture(AC).The Garcia score was used to assess the neurological function.TTC staining was used to detect the volume ratio of cerebral infarction.The target prediction website was used to predict the miRNAs and corresponding mRNAs bound by circRNA_011989 and circRNA_009775,and Cytoscape was used to construct the circRNA-miRNA-mRNA co-expression network.The expression of circRNA_011989,circRNA_009775,miR-466b-5p,miR-3065-3p,Rims1,and Slc30a3 in the hippocampal region of the ische-mic side was detected by real time RT-PCR.Results:Compared with CIRI group,Garcia score of rats in CIRI+AC group was significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the infarct volume decreased.The expressions of circRNA_011989,circRNA_009775,Rims1,and Slc30a3 in right hippocampus were up-regulated(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),but the miR-466b-5p and miR-3065-3p were down-regulated(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Acupuncture may significantly ameliorate the neurological deficit symptoms in CIRI rats by upregulating the expression of circRNA_011989 and circRNA_009775,and the specific mechanism may be related to the activation of circRNA_011989/miR-466b-5p/Rim.s1 and circRNA_009775/miR-3065-3p/Slc30a3 axis related.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the expression of serum microRNA-326(miR-326)and microRNA-623(miR-623)in non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)patients and their clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis.Methods A total of 114 NSCLC patients diagnosed in our hospital from March 2019 to June 2020 were collected as study subjects as case group,123 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination were as the control group.According to the 3-year prognosis,patients were separated into a survival group of 71 cases and a death group of 43 cases.Patient related clinical data were collected,real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR method was applied to detect the expression levels of miR-326 and miR-623 in various serum samples;Kaplan-Meier method was applied to analyze the relationship between the expression levels of serum miR-326 and miR-623 in NSCLC patients and their 3-year prognosis;Cox proportional risk regression model was applied to analyze the influencing factors of 3-year prognosis in NSCLC patients.Results The expression levels of serum miR-326 in the case group and control group were 0.64±0.15 and 1.02±0.23,respectively,and the expression levels of miR-623 were 0.56±0.10 and 0.98±0.15,respectively.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The proportions of patients with low expression of miR-326 and miR-623 in low differentiation,TNM stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ,and lymph node metastasis were higher than those in high differentiation,TNM stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ,and no lymph node metastasis(P＜0.05).The 3-year survival rates of patients with low expression of miR-326(20/55,36.36％)and miR-623(27/61,44.26％)in the serum of NSCLC patients were lower than those of patients with high expression of miR-326(51/59,86.44％)and miR-623(44/53,83.02％)(Log Rank x2=32.060,22.812,P＜0.05).Serum miR-326[(0.55±0.09)vs.(0.69±0.11)]and miR-623 levels[(0.48±0.08)vs.(0.61±0.10)]of patients in the death group were significantly lower than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)for poor prognosis of serum miR-326 and miR-623 alone and in combination in patients diagnosed with NSCLC were 0.828(95％CI:0.754 to 0.901),0.763(95％CI:0.671 to 0.855),and 0.903(95％CI:0.849 to 0.958),respectively.The proportions of patients with TNM stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ,lymph node metastasis,low expression of miR-326 and low expression of miR-623in the death group were higher than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).MiR-326 and miR-623 were protective factors affecting 3-year mortality in NSCLC patients,while TNM staging and lymph node metastasis were independent risk factors affecting 3-year mortality in NSCLC patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion The low expression of miR-326 and miR-623 may be involved in the occurrence and development of lung cancer,which is closely related to the clinical pathological characteristics and poor prognosis of patients.

Objective:To explore the characteristics of abnormal chromosome karyotype of common external genital malformations in male children.Methods:A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 2 408 children was made in outpatient or inpatient from January 2012 to December 2017. The mean age was (38±7) months. There were 1115 cases of hypospadias, 189 cases of cryptorchidism, 304 cases of micropenis, 681 cases of concealed penis and 119 cases of disorders of sex development. All children were tested for chromosome 550 band in peripheral blood, and the results of chromosome karyotype were analyzed.Results:A total of 131 cases of abnormal chromosome karyotypes were detected, with a detection rate of 5.4%, including 46 cases of chromosome number abnormalities, 85 cases of structural abnormalities, 64 cases of sex chromosome abnormalities and 67 cases of autosomal abnormalities. The karyotype of chromosome was 46, XY, inv (9) (p12q13) in 28 cases accounting for 21.4%. It was followed by 47, XXY, with 16 cases, accounting for 12.2%. The detection rate of chromosomal abnormalities in children with disorders of sex development was 12.6%(15 cases), hypospadias was 5.5%(61 cases), cryptorchidism was 5.3%(10 cases), micropenis was 4.9%(15 cases), and concealed penis was 4.4%(30 cases).Conclusions:Chromosomal abnormalities are not uncommon in male children with external genital malformations. Chromosome structural abnormalities are more common than quantitative abnormalities, and sex chromosome abnormalities account for a comparable proportion to autosomal abnormalities.
