Objective:To explore the micro RNA (miR)-193b-3p expression in hippocampus tissues of neonatal sepsis rats, as well as its role in neuroinflammatory response and possible mechanisms.Methods:Twenty-four 2-d-old SD rats were randomly divided into control group, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group, negative control group, and miR-193b-3p group ( n=6); except for the negative control group, the rats in the other 3 groups were intraperitoneally injected with LPS to establish sepsis models; in miR-193b-3p group and NC group, 5 μL miR-193b-3p mimics/controls (20 nmol/L)were injected into the lateral ventricle 3 d before LPS injection. In vitro, PC12 cells were divided into control group, LPS group, miR-193b-3p group, and LPS+miR-193b-3p group; miR-193b-3p mimics were transfected into cells of miR-193b-3p group and LPS+miR-193b-3p group; cells in the LPS group and LPS+miR-193b-3p group were exposed to 100 ng/mL LPS. The miR-193b-3p downstream target gene was analyzed by gene microarray and dual luciferase reporter. Neurobehavioral scale used to assess the neurological function at specific time points in each group. The mRNA expression levels of miR-193b-3p and cytokines (interleukin [IL]-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor [TNF]-α) in the brain tissues or PC12 cells were analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantification PCR (RT-qPCR). The protein expression levels of retinoic acid-related orphan receptor α (RORα), neuronal nuclear antigen (NeuN), ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule-1 (IBA-1) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) were detected by double-labelling immunofluorescence. The protein expression levels of RORα in PC12 cells were detected by immunofluorescence staining. Results:(1) Gene microarray and dual luciferase reporter analysis confirmed that RORα was the target gene of miR-193b-3p. (2) As compared with those in rats of the negative control group, the neurobehavioral scores in rats of the LPS group were significantly decreased since 6 h of LPS injection and reached to the lowest at 24 h after LPS ( P<0.05). As compared with those in the negative control group, the IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α mRNA expression levels in the hippocampus of LPS group were significantly increased, while the miR-193b-3p expression was significantly decreased ( P<0.05). (3) As compared with those in negative control group (3.23±0.92), the neurobehavioral scores in rats of the miR-193b-3p group (7.51±0.84) 48 h after LPS injection were significantly higher ( P<0.05). As compared with those in the negative control group, the IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α mRNA expression levels in the hippocampus of the miR-193b-3p group were significantly deceased, while the miR-193b-3p expression was significantly higher ( P<0.05). (4) As compared with that in negative control group, the number of NeuN(+)RORα(+) cells in the hippocampus of the LPS group was significantly reduced ( P<0.05); as compared with negative control group, miR-193b-3p group had significantly increased number of NeuN(+)RORα(+) cells in the hippocampus ( P<0.05). (5) As compared with the control group, the LPS group had significantly decreased RORα expression, and significantly increased TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA expression in PC12 cells ( P<0.05). As compared with those in the LPS group, the RORα expression was significantly increased, and the TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 mRNA expression levels in PC12 cells were significantly decreased in LPS+miR-193b-3p group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The miR-193b-3p inhibits the neuroinflammatory response in neonatal sepsis rats by regulating its target molecule RORα mRNA expression in hippocampal neurocyte.

Objective:
To present a new method for correction of prominent malar complex via intraoral approach by double support technique osteotomy which can provide a stable support.
Methods:
According to the anatomical characteristics of malar complex and relevant masseter muscle, we designed a malar reduction technique including anterior and posterior support. The reduction procedure entailed an L-shaped osteotomy ofthemalarbody and oblique osteotomy of malar arch. On the basis of prominence degree, bone fragment was moved inward and upward to form double support, which could reduce malar and zygomatic arch effectively.
Results:
A total of 76 patients subjected to double support technique for malar reduction between January 2015 and January 2017 were retrospectively reviewed.The follow-up period ranged from 10 to 12 months. All patients were satisfied with aesthetic outcomes without major complications, such as facial nerve damage or bone ununion.
Conclusions
Double support technique is an effective method to correct malar prominence andreduce the zygomatic complex which can prevent saggy cheek and bony malunion.

Objective:
To investigate the association between parenting style and sleep problems among school aged children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD).
Methods:
A total of 98 children with ASD aged 6-10 years old and 98 age and gender matched typically developing (TD) children from mainstream schools were recruited. Parenting style and sleep problems were measured via Parent Behavior Inventory (PBI) and Children s Sleep Habits Questionnaire(CSHQ), respectively. The symptom severity and intelligence level were also evaluated. Generalized linear model was used to analyze the relationship between parenting style and sleep problems.
Results:
There was no statistically significant difference in the parenting style of the two groups of children( P > 0.05 ); weekend sleep time of children with ASD was significantly shorter than that of the TD group [(9.1±0.7)(9.5±0.8)h, P < 0.01 ], and the score of sleep onset delay was significantly higher than that of the TD group[(1.8±0.7)(1.5±0.7), P <0.01]. However, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of total sleep problems and various problems between the two groups of children( P >0.05). The parental support/engagement of children with ASD was negatively associated with the total score of sleep problems( β=-2.68, 95%CI =-4.88--0.47), bedtime resistance ( β=-1.65, 95%CI =-2.54--0.77) and sleep anxiety( β=-1.01, 95%CI =-1.70--0.32). The parental hostility/coercion was positively correlated with score of daytime sleepiness( β=1.41, 95%CI =0.53-2.29)( P <0.05).
Conclusion
Parenting style of support/engagement is associated with lower sleep problems in children with ASD, while hostile/coercion is associated with higher sleep problems. It should be improve parental style to reduce the sleep problems in children with ASD.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of totally laparoscopic pylorus-preserving gastrectomy (TLPPG) with preservation of the first branch of the right gastroepiploic vein in early gastric cancer (EGC).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 38 EGC patients who were admitted to the Subei Hospital Affiliated to Yangzhou University from July 2018 to May 2021 were collected. There were 18 males and 20 females, aged 60 (range, 39?73) years. All patients underwent TLPPG with preservation of the first branch of the right gastroepiploic vein.Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative condi-tions; (2) postoperative histopathological examination. (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination, WeChat interview and medical record review to detect the nutritional status, residual stomach function, cholecystolithiasis, tumor recurrence and metastasis and death of patients. Follow-up was up to July 2022. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative conditions. All 38 patients underwent TLPPG with preservation of the first branch of the right gastroepiploic vein successfully, without laparotomy conversion. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, time to postoperative first flatus, time to postoperative first liquid food intake and duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 38 patients were (180±28)minutes, (58±38)mL, (2.7±0.6)days, (3.4±0.7)days and (10.3±2.8)days, respectively. Of the 38 patients, there were 6 cases with postoperative complications ≥grade Ⅱ of Clavien-Dindo classification. (2) Postoperative histopatho-logical examination. The tumor diameter, distance from proximal resection margin to tumor and distance from distal resection margin to tumor of the 38 patients were (1.8±0.5)cm, (3.4±0.2)cm and (4.3±0.4)cm, respectively. Both of proximal and distal resection margin was negative. Numbers of lymph node examined and numbers of lymph node examined in the No.6 lymph node of the 38 patients were 23.3±3.9 and 3.4±1.1, respectively. There were 38 cases with pathological T1 stage including 23 cases of T1a stage and 15 cases of T1b stage. There were 36 cases with pathological N0 stage and 2 cases with pathological N1 stage. There were 36 cases with pathological ⅠA stage and 2 cases with pathological ⅠB stage of TNM staging. (3) Follow-up. All 38 patients were followed up for 18(range, 12?48)months. The hemoglobin, serum albumin and total serum protein of the 38 patients were (125.4±5.8)g/L, (42.4±2.3)g/L and (71.6±2.1)g/L, respectively, at postoperative 6 month. Endo-scopy was used to evaluate the function of residual stomach of patients at postoperative 12 month. There were 4 patients with moderate amount of food remaining in the residual stomach. No patient suffered reflux esophagitis, reflux gastritis and bile reflux. None of the 38 patients received post-operative chemotherapy, and there was no tumor recurrence and metastasis or death occured in patient.Conclusion:TLPPG with preservation of the first branch of the right gastroepiploic vein is safe and feasible for the treatment of EGC patients with tumor located at 1/3 of the middle segment of stomach.

To evaluate the association between serum anti-tissue transglutaminase antibody (anti-tTG) titers and the severity of histological damage to the duodenal mucosa and to predict a possible anti-tTG cutoff value for diagnosing celiac disease (CD) and villous atrophy in the domestic population. Clinical and pathological data from 76 adult CD patients with positive anti-tTG titers and duodenal biopsy results who were treated at the People′s Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from July 2017 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The correlation between anti-tTG titers and the severity of duodenal mucosal damage was statistically assessed to predict the optimal anti-tTG titer cut-off value for diagnosing CD and villous atrophy. Of the 76 patients, 10 had underlying CD, and of the 66 patients with duodenal histopathology, four were Marsh Ⅰ, six were Marsh Ⅱ, and 56 were Marsh Ⅲa-c grade. In adults with CD, anti-tTG titers were shown to be associated with the severity of histological damage to the duodenal mucosa. When the anti-tTG level was ≥5 times the upper limit of normal (ULN), the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing CD were 83.9% and 92.9%, respectively. When the anti-tTG titer was ≥8 times the ULN, the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing villous atrophy were 67.9% and 90.0%, respectively. Anti-tTG levels had a strong predictive value for diagnosing CD in adults when titers exceeded 10 times the ULN. Thus, the anti-tTG cut-off value can be combined with clinical judgment to diagnose CD, limiting the use of invasive endoscopy.
