Objective To investigate the expression and clinical value of miR-127-3p in plasma of patients with breast cancer .Methods 80 cases of breast patients , 70 cases of benign breast tumor patients and 70 cases of normal control group were recruited .A real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-PCR ) method for detecting miR-127-3p was established; Liner, reproducibility, and specificity were evaluated.In addition, correlations between the relative expression of plasma miR-127-3p and the concentrations of CEA and CA 153 were assessed.the relationship of miR-127-3p expression and clinicopathological features was further determined by Mann-Whitney test.Results The method for detection of plasma miR-127-3p was established.The relative plasma expression of miR-127-3p in breast patients [ 10.561 ( 5.424 -16.465 ) ] was significantly higher than that in benign breast tumor patients [3.015 (1.987-5.035)] (P=0.000 6) and healthy controls [2.375 (1.173-4.370)] (P=0.000 2).However, there was no significant difference between benign tumor patients and healthy control group (P=0.143).Positive relationship was found between the relative expression of miR-127-3p and the concentration of CA153 (R2 =0.457, P=0.003).The area under the ROC curve (AUC) of miR-127-3pwas 0.763, which was higher than that of CEA and CA 153.No significant difference was found between plasma miR-127-3p expression and clinicalpathological features including tumor size , differentiation and tumor node metastasis stage (P>0.05).Conclusions miR-127-3p was increased in breast cancer patients and may be an important diagnostic index for breast cancer .

Objective To investigate the effectiveness and safety of anterior vitrectomy combined with capsular retractor and Cionni modified capsular tension ring (MCTR) in traumatic lens subluxation surgery with anterior vitreous prolapse.Methods This study comprised 16 patients (16 eyes) of traumatic lens subluxation with anterior vitreous prolapse,in which iridodialysis was in 3 eyes,express implantation in 1 eye and Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation in 1 eye.According to the severity of lens subluxation,the patients were divided into three levels,including 90°-120° (7 eyes),120°-180° (5 eyes) and 180°-270° (4 eyes).Considering the anterior vitreous prolapse,anterior vitrectomy or/and pars plan vitrectomy was conducted with assistance of triamcinolone acetonide.After continuous curvilinear capsulorhexis,two to four capsular retractors were placed in the capsulorhexis to support and center the capsule.MCTR was inserted with scleral suture fixation after phacoemulsification.At last,the foldable IOL was implanted to capsular bag.Postoperative visual acuity,intra-and post-operative complications,anterior capsular opening,IOL positions and intraocular pressure (IOP) were assessed during 3 months' follow up.Results All patients had successfully undergone phacoemulsification,MCTR insertion and IOL implantation.Seven eyes were inserted with 2-eyelet MCTR and nine eyes were inserted with 1-eyelet MCTR.The postoperative visual acuity was better than 0.5 in 9 eyes,between 0.3 and 0.5 in 4 eyes,between 0.1 and 0.3 in 2 eyes,and less than 0.1 in 1 eye.Compared with pre-operation,the difference in the visual acuity was statistically significant (x2 =17.503,P =0.000).The scheimpflug images obtained from the Pentacam,which demonstrated that the IOL was well centered,and no MCTR and IOL decentration occurred.The common intraand post-operative complications were residual cortex,aqueous misdirection syndrome,anterior capsular tears,anterior capsular phimosis and posterior capsular opacification.Conclusion The effective application of anterior vitrectomy is the key point to reduce surgical complications.Anterior vitrectomy combined with insertion of capsular retractor and MCTR is an ideal surgical option for patients of traumatic lens subluxation with anterior vitreous prolapse.

Objective To observe the changes of postprandial blood pressure and heart rate with two types of nasal feeding in the very elderly and explore the method for decreasing the postprandial hypotension (PPH).Methods Totally 49 patients (aged＞80 years) were randomly divided into two groups of continuous versus intermittent nasal feeding.The clinical symptoms and changes in blood pressure and heart rate before and after meals were observed.Results The incidence of PPH was 100.0％(26 cases)in the group of intermittent nasal feeding,and 47.8％ (11 cases) in the group of continuous nasal feeding (P＜0.01).Postprandial blood pressure in the group of intermittent nasal feeding was decreased significantly as compared with the group of continuous nasal feeding (P ＜0.05); and the heart rate was accelerated in the group of intermittent nasal feeding compared with continuous nasal feeding (P＜0.05).The incidence of serious cardio-cerebral ischemia was 7.7％ (2cases)in the group of intermittent nasal feeding.The patients had no clinical symptoms in the group of continuous nasal feeding.Conclusions Continuous nasal feeding for the very elderly with gastrointestinal nutrition can reduce the extent of the falling blood pressure and the incidence of PPH,and avoide cardiocerebrovascular events.

AIM: A new HPLC-MS method was developed to determine finasteride in human plasma. METHODS: Two formulations of finasteride tablets were given to 20 healthy male volunteers according to a randomized 2-way cross-over design. The samples were extracted by ethyl acetate under basic conditions, then were separated by C18 column and determined by mass detector. RESULTS: The calibration curve of finasteride was linear and intra-day and inter-day RSD were less than 10 %. The pharmacokinetics parameters of the two formulations (4.5 ± 0.5) h for t1/2; (3.0 ± 0.7) and (2.8 ± 0.9) h for tmax, respectively. The results indicated that there was no significant difference on cmax, A UC0-24, t1/2 or tmax values between the two formulations. CONCLUTION: The relative bioavailability of tablets I with respect to tablets Ⅱ is (99.3 ± 9.2) % by the A UC0-24 measurement, and bioe quivalence is observed between the two tablets.

Objective To investigate the incidence,pathogenetic factors,prognosis and correlation factors of acute kidney injury(AKI) in the hospitalized elderly patients. Methods The clinical data of 4781 elderly patients (aged 65 years and over) in our hospital from June 2008 to December 2009 were collected in this study using the hospital information system(HIS).The patients with AKI were picked out and were retrospectively analyzed. Results Among 4781patients,515cases (10.8％) suffered from AKI and the incidence of AKI increased with growing age. Single factorial analysis of etiology showed that infections (39.2％) was the most common causes of AKI.Multifactorial analysis revealed that the major causes of AKI were infections (81.0％),followed by hypovolemia (67.2 ％ ),nephrotoxic drugs (64.1％ ),cardiovascular diseases (32.3 ％),respiratory failure(17.7％) and neoplasm (9.5％). Multivariate logistic analysis and cox proportional hazard models indicated multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS),gastrointestinal bleeding,mechanical ventilation and malnutrition were independent risk factors inducing end events such as dialysis or death and influencing time of live. Conclusions There is high incidence of AKI in the elderly hospitalized patient.Infections,hypovolemia,nephrotoxic drugs and cardiovascular diseases are the common causes of AKI.Active treatment of primary diseases,early diagnosis and prevention are beneficial for improving the prognosis of AKI.

Objective To systematically evaluate the effects of left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) determined by two dimensional speckle tracking imaging technology (2D-STI) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on the prognosis of patients with sepsis/septic shock.Methods Databases such as the National Library of Medicine PubMed database, Dutch medical abstracts Embase, Cochrane Library, Netherlands Elsevier, Springer and China biomedical literature database (CBMdisc), China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI), Wanfang database, China science and technology journal full-text database, Vip Chinese biomedical journal database were searched from the establishment of literature database to April 2018 to study GLS, LVEF and their relationships with mortality of septic/septic shock patients. The literatures screening and data collecting were independently conducted by two researchers, and the quality of the included literature was evaluated. The sensitivity and heterogeneity analysis were performed with RevMan 5.3 software, and the combined effects were calculated. Funnel plot was used to evaluate publication bias.Results A total of 6 articles including 5 English articles and 1 Chinese article were enrolled. There were 503 patients, 333 in the survival group and 170 in the death group. The quality of the literature was high, and the Newcastle-Ottawa scale (NOS) score was 8-9. Meta-analysis showed that short-term mortality was associated with higher GLS in patients with sepsis/septic shock [standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.47, 95％ confidence interval (95％CI) = -0.76 to -0.18, Z = 3.16,P = 0.002], and there was no significant difference in LVEF between the survival group and the death group (SMD = 0.18, 95％CI = -0.03-0.39,Z = 1.64, P = 0.10). Sensitivity analysis was carried out for each effect index by removing each document one by one, and the results showed that there was no significant change in the combined effect before and after each document, indicating that the results were stable. The funnel plot showed that the effect points of each literature were roughly in the form of "inverted funnels" with a large symmetric distribution centered on the combined effect, but the number of studies included in this study was too small, so the publication bias could not be completely excluded.Conclusion Compared with LVEF, GLS might be a more sensitive indicator for detecting myocardial dysfunction in patients with sepsis/septic shock and might have important predictive value for short-term mortality.

Objective:To explore the application effect of multi-sensory stimulation with breastmilk in preterm infants with venipuncture pain, so as to provide theoretical guidance for clinical implementation of neonatal pain management.Methods:This study was a randomised controlled trial that selected 90 cases of preterm infants who were admitted to the Department of Neonatal Internal Medicine of Shanxi Children′s Hospital from May to October 2023, and were randomly divided into the control group and the intervention group, with 45 cases in each group. The control group received routine neonatal analgesia based on preparation before intervention, and the intervention group received multi-sensory stimulation with breastmilk based on preparation before intervention. Premature Infant Pain Profile-Revised(PIPP-R), The Chinese COMFORTneo Scale and physiological stress indicators (heart rate and oxygen saturation) were used to compare the pain level, comfort level and physiological stress response of preterm infants in the two groups 3 min before, during and 1 to 5 min after the venipuncture operation.Results:Finally, 80 cases of preterm infants were included with 40 cases in each group. The control group was born at a gestational age of (34.61 ± 1.16) weeks, with 19 males and 21 females; the intervention group was born at a gestational age of (34.74 ± 1.16) weeks, with 22 males and 18 females. Comparison between the groups showed that during and 5 min after the operation, the PIPP-R scale scores of the intervention group were (6.83 ± 0.26), (0.80 ± 0.25) points, respectively, which were lower than those of the control group (12.25 ± 0.70), (2.83 ± 0.36) points, and the differences were statistically significant (Wald χ2=53.31, 21.43, both P<0.01).The Chinese COMFORTneo Scale scores of the intervention group were (14.15 ± 0.64), (6.45 ± 0.13) points, which were lower than those of the control group (20.87 ± 0.82), (8.20 ± 0.32) points, and the differences were statistically significant (Wald χ2=41.89 and 25.75, both P<0.01); the heart rate of the intervention group were (161.07 ± 1.09), (142.48 ± 0.99) beats/min, which were lower than those of the control group(169.30 ± 1.93), (147.23 ± 2.15) beats/min, and the differences were statistically significant (Wald χ2=13.83, 4.03, both P<0.05). During the operation to 2 min after the operation, the blood oxygen saturation of the intervention group were 0.950 3 ± 0.004 0, 0.959 3 ± 0.003 4, 0.9663 ± 0.003 0, respectively, which were higher than those of the control group 0.925 3 ± 0.003 6, 0.940 5 ± 0.003 6, 0.9500 ± 0.004 3, and the differences were statistically significant (Wald χ2=21.98, 14.62, 9.70, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Multi-sensory stimulation with breastmilk can reduce the pain degree in preterm infants, improve the comfort level of preterm infants, reduce the physiological stress response and promote physiological stability of preterm infants during and after the operation of venipuncture.

Background::The APPEC study is a large-population randomized controlled trial in China evaluating the role of low-dose aspirin prophylactic treatment for pre-eclampsia. There was no statistically significant difference in postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) incidence between the aspirin and control groups. This study aimed to evaluate the potential bleeding risk of 100 mg aspirin in high-risk pregnant women and the difference in the incidence of PPH according to maternal characteristics.Methods::This is a secondary data analysis of the APPEC study. Platelet counts and coagulation test results were collected at five follow-up visits. Subgroups defined by maternal age (<35 years and ≥35 years), pre-pregnancy body mass index (pre-BMI, <28 kg/m 2 and ≥28 kg/m 2), parity, gestational age at enrollment, and medical history, including pre-eclampsia, chronic hypertension, and diabetes mellitus, were analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the statistical significance of the difference in the incidence of PPH after aspirin administration in pregnant women in each subgroup. Adjustment using multiple logistic regression models followed these analyses. Binary logistic regression was used to determine the relationship between pre-BMI and PPH. Results::There was no significant difference between the aspirin and control groups in bleeding risk (3.4% [16/464] vs. 3.0% [13/434], T = 0.147, P = 0.701). No significant difference was found in the incidence of PPH in total (relative risk = 1.220, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.720–2.067, P = 0.459; aspirin group vs. control group, 6.5% [30/464] vs. 5.3% [23/434], P = 0.459) or in subgroup analysis. A significant correlation between pre-BMI and PPH was found in the aspirin group, while in the control group there was no significant correlation (aspirin group, odds ratio [OR] = 1.086, 95% CI = 1.004–1.175, P = 0.040; control group, OR= 1.060, 95% CI = 0.968–1.161, P = 0.209). Conclusions::A dosage of 100 mg of aspirin per day, initiated from 12 to 20 gestational weeks until 34 weeks of gestation, did not increase the risk of potential bleeding and PPH regardless of the maternal characteristic. In the aspirin group, the positive correlation between BMI and PPH was significant.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT01979627.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of intellectual developmental disorder with cardiac arrhythmia syndrome (IDDCA) in a family caused by GNB5 gene variation and to review the literature.Methods:The clinical and genetic data of an infant with IDDCA, who visited Shenzhen Children′s Hospital in September 2018, were collected and analyzed. His parents′ and brother′s gene analysis was also done by the next-generation sequencing and confirmed by Sanger sequencing. Related literature up to March 2020 was searched in Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM), PubMed, CNKI and Wanfang databases with “GNB5” “IDDCA” “LADCI” “intellectual developmental disorder with cardial arrhythmia” “language delay and attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder or cognitive impairment with or without cardiac arrhythmia” as the key words. The related papers were retrieved and analyzed to summarize the clinical and genetic characteristics of this disorder.Results:The proband was an 11-month-old boy who presented with mental and motor developmental retardation, accompanied with convulsion and muscle weakness. Sinus arrest was also detected. His electroencephalogram (EEG) and flash visual evoked potential (FVEP) were both abnormal. Genetic analysis identified the homozygous frameshift variation of GNB5 gene (c.136delG, p.Glu46Argfs*8) in this infant and heterozygous variation in his parents, confirmed the diagnosis of IDDCA. The same GNB5 variation was identified in his brother, who was 4 years and 8 months old and had developed the similar clinical manifestations after birth. There were only 7 papers reporting this disease in the literature review, with a total of 27 patients from 14 families. Including these 2 cases, there were 29 patients in total, whose age of diagnosis ranged from 5.5 months to 23 years. Among all the patients, 20 cases (69%) were diagnosed as IDDCA, while 8 cases (28%) as LADCI; and 11 (38%) were males while 18 (62%) females. Regarding the clinical features, 66% (19/29) had mental retardation, 41% (12/29) had seizures, 79% (23/29) developed language delay and 62%（18/29） had sinus node dysfunction. Genetic tests showed that 4 patients from 3 families had complex heterozygous variation, and 25 patients (86%) from 12 families had homozygous variation. Seventeen patients from 8 families were consanguineous. Among the total 12 variations, there were 4 nonsense, 3 frameshift, 2 missense and 2 shear mutations, and 1 shear disorder caused by synonymous mutation.Conclusions:IDDCA caused by GNB5 gene variations mainly manifests as general developmental delay or severe mental retardation, and sinus node dysfunction. GNB5 associated syndromes have phenotypic heterogeneity and are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner.

Objective:Analyzing the epidemic trends and spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of condyloma acuminatum in China from 2018 to 2023.Methods:Data of condyloma acuminatum cases and incidence rate including 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) from 2018 to 2023 were collected through the National Notifiable Infectious Disease Reporting System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. Incidence trend analysis was conducted using Joinpoint 4.9.1 software, and spatial autocorrelation analysis using ArcGIS 10.5 software. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis was carried out with SaTScan 10.1.2 software.Results:The incidence rate of condyloma acuminatum declined from 7.26 per 100 000 in 2018 to 7.19 per 100 000 in 2023. The average annual percent change was -0.26%, which was no statistically significant downward trend ( t=-0.26, P=0.806). A significant positive global spatial autocorrelation was observed in the county-level incidence rate across the country, with the global Moran's I ranging from 0.55 to 0.60 (all P<0.001); the Getis-Ord General test statistic Z( G) was all >1.96, indicating a high-value clustering pattern in the reported incidence rate of condyloma acuminatum. The local spatial autocorrelation analysis detected 256, 244, 246, 284, 308, and 315 hotspots each year, which were mainly located in the provinces of Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Guizhou, Yunnan and Chongqing. Spatio-temporal scanning analyses identified 76 statistically significant spatiotemporal clusters covering 25 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities). Conclusions:From 2018 to 2023, the reported incidence rate of condyloma acuminata in China exhibited a mild decline. The distribution of hotspot areas and spatiotemporal clusters was largely consistent, primarily in the southeastern coastal and southwestern regions.
