Objective To study the effect of pinealctomy and melatonin on the cell cycle distribution during T cell development in thymus. Methods SD rats were divided into 5 groups:normal controls,sham-operated controls,pinealectomy,pinealectomy+melatonin injection 7.5 mg/kg; and pinealectomy+melatonin injection 15 mg/kg.The animals were sacrificed at 4 or 8 weeks after operation.cycilnA +and cyclinE +T cells in thymus were dyed with immunocytochemical ABC methods, measured by computer image analysis.Cell cycle analysis was performed by flow cytometry.The expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1? was tested by RT-PCR method. Results The effect of pinealectomy on the expression of cyclinE was stronger than that of cycilnA. Pinealectomy promotes the synthesis of cyclinE in thymus.The percentage of G-0/G-1 phase cells was decreased and G-2/M phase cells was increased.These would be convalescente by supplement with melatonin,but the reaction to melatonin was differencet in thymus cortex and in medulla.Melatonin enhanced the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1? in thymus.Conclusion Pinealectomy influences notably the T cells development in thymus.Rejuvenation of degenerative thymus could be observed by melatonin administration.

ObjectiveTo explore the relation of heart rate variability (HRV) in neonatal asphyxia with myocardial injury.MethodsContinuous electrocardiographic monitoring by 24-hour Holter recordings was performed in 53 neonates with asphyxia and 40 healthy newborn.The difference of HRV with sinus rhythm was analyzed.Time-domain indexs included standard deviation of R-R intervals (SDNN) ; standard deviation of all mean 5-minute R-R intervals (SDANN) ;standard deviation of all R-R intervals for all 5-minute segments of 24 hours (SDNNindex ) ;root mean squared successive difference (rMSSD) ;percent of NN50 in the total number R-R intervals ( PNN50 ).Results( 1 ) Maximum heart rate,minimum heart rate and average heart rate of 24-hour Holter in healthy newborn were faster than those in newborn with neonatal asphyxia ( P ＜ 0.05 ).And the heart rate was faster in newborn with mild neonatal asphyxia than that in newborn with serious neonatal asphyxia ( P ＜ 0.05 ).(2) SDNN,SDANN of HRV index analysis showed significantly difference between healthy newborn and asphyxia newhom ( P ＜ 0.05 ).There were no difference of SDNN,SDANN,SDNNindex,rMSSD and PNN50 between mild and serious neonatal asphyxia (P ＞ 0.05 ).No significant differences of SDNNindex,rMSSD and PNN50 were found among three groups.ConclusionMyocardial injury caused by neonatal asphyxia can lead to damage of cardiac autonomic nevous and affect heart rate changes.The degree of myocardial injury is related to the degree of neonatal asphyxia.

Objective To explore the risk factors for lung cancer-related cerebral infarction . Methods The hospitalized active lung cancer patients on anti-cancer therapy with no traditional stroke risk factors, who experienced an acute cerebral infarct in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2005 to December 2015, were consecutively collected as the LCRS ( lung cancer-related stroke) group.The active lung cancer patients without cerebral infarction hospitalized at the same peroid matched with the LCRS group for age and gender were collected as the LC ( lung cancer ) group. Clinical data from the two groups were analyzed .Results A total of 139 LCRS patients and 139 LC patients were enrolled in the study , with 110 male and 29 female in each group , and there were no significant difference for the mean age between the LCRS group (52.1 ±10.4 years old ) and the LC group (52.1 ± 10.1 years old).Two or more acute ischemic lesions of the brain were showed by MRI in most patients in the LCRS group (117 cases, 84.2%).Compared with the LC group, more patients in the LCRS group were found with adenocarcinoma , metastasis, elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CA199 levels [ 88 cases (63.3%) vs 47 cases (33.8%);98 cases (70.5%) vs 56 cases (40.3%);(468.38 ±291.37) μg/L vs (277.59 ±191.22) μg/L;(221.42 ±146.34) U/ml vs (106.84 ±69.97) U/ml;(254.68 ±185.84) U/ml vs (97.15 ±63.64) U/ml;with all P<0.001].By logistic regression analysis of multiple factors , the elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CA199 levels were showed to be independent risk factors for the cerebral infarction (OR=1.003, 95%CI 1.001 -1.004; OR=1.006, 95%CI 1.003 -1.010; OR=1.011, 95%CI 1.007-1.015).Conclusions The elevated plasma D-dimer, CA125 and CA199 levels are the risk factors for the lung cancer related cerebral infarction , which may lead to hypercoagulation and induce cerebral infarction eventually .

Objective To investigate the effects of OB built-in tampon indwelled in anus combined with acupoint massage in ICU patients with incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD). Methods 100 patients with incontinence hospitalized in ICU were randomly assigned to control group (n=50) versus combined therapy group (n=50). The patients in the control group accepted routine nursing while the patients in the combined therapy group were treated with OB built-in tampon indwelled in anus combined with acupoint massage besides the routine nursing care. The two groups were compared in terms of incidence rate of IAD, IAD occurrence time, severity of IAD and incontinence-related nursing workload. Results The incidence rate of IAD and the severity of IAD in the combined therapy group were lower than those of the control group.The IAD in the combined therapy group occurred later than in the control group. Thetime for incontinence-related nursing and the frequency of perineum washing in the combined therapy group were shorter and lower than in the control group. Conclusions The application of OB built-in tampon indwelled in anus combined with acupoint massage in ICU patients with incontinence can not only reduce the incidence rate and severity of IAD but also lower the workload of nursing.The therapy is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To analyze the distribution of occupational hazard factors (OHFs) in key enterprises in Foshan City. Methods A total of 373 enterprises from 11 key industries in Foshan City in 2022 were selected as the research subjects using the purposive sampling method. Monitoring data of OHFs in workplaces were obtained and analyzed from the "Workplace Occupational Hazards Monitoring Information System" under "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System". Results Among the 373 enterprises, small and micro-sized enterprises, and large and medium-sized enterprises accounted for 85.5% and 14.5% respectively. A total of 24 137 sampling points in the workplaces were monitored for OHFs, with the national standard compliance rate of 92.1%. Among different OHFs, the compliance rates ranked from highest to lowest were chemical agents, dust, and noise (98.0% vs 89.3% vs 52.0%, P<0.01). A total of 63 131 workers were employed in 373 enterprises, among whom 29 753 were exposed to OHFs, yielding an overall exposure rate of 47.1%. Exposure rates of OHFs by enterprise scale, from highest to lowest, were micro-sized, small-sized, medium-sized, and large-sized enterprises (69.2% vs 52.7% vs 47.3% vs 39.0%, P<0.01). The proportion of workers participated in occupational medical examination was 85.1%, with re-examination proportion of 62.5% and the abnormality detection rate of 2.1%. Conclusion In key enterprises in Foshan City, the risk of noise exposure is relatively high, and the exposure rate of OHFs is highest in micro-sized enterprises. The occupational health supervision and management department needs to strengthen the governance of noise hazards in a targeted manner and urge enterprises (especially micro-sized enterprises) to fulfill their primary responsibilities in occupational disease prevention and control.

Meanwhile, related literatures were reviewed. Results A 10-year-old boy was admitted to hospital with fainting. ECG showed J point up, reflecting Osbron wave. There was no abnormality in EEG and cranial CT. Ultrasound cardiograph showed approximately normal heart structure and left ventricular systolic function. Fainting was frequently occurred during follow-up and accompanied by malignant arrhythmia. Conclusions Patients with J wave syndromes has high risks of malignant arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death.

Objective To explore the value of transesophageal atrial pacing (TEAP) and temporary cardiac pacing in the treatment of acute intractable tachyarrhythmia in children. Method The clinical data of children with acute intractable tachyarrhythmia treated with TEAP (48 cases) or temporary cardiac pacing (6 cases) from January 2014 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Results In the 48 cases aged 1 day to 13 years (28 males and 20 females) treated with TEAP, 25 cases had paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia, in which there were 15 cases of rapid atrial flutter, 5 cases of atrial tachycardia and 3 cases of left ventricular idiopathic bundle branch reentrant tachycardia. The rates of successful cardioversion to sinus rhythm through TEAP were 84％, 80％, 20％ and 100％ respectively. In the 6 cases aged 2 to 10 years (1 male and 5 females) treated with temporary cardiac pacing, there were 5 cases of fulminant myocarditis and 1 case of noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium and their conditions were well controlled after treatment. Conclusion TEAP and temporary cardiac pacing have good curative effect in the treatment of acute intractable tachyarrhythmia in children. However, temporary electricity therapy can only temporarily rectify the hemodynamic abnormality threatening the life of children, and active comprehensive treatment for the primary diseases should be carried out simultaneously.

Methods:Two thousand standard sections images werre collected from 2 000 clinical retrospective pediatric hip ultrasound videos from January 2019 to January 2021. All standard sections were annotated by the annotation team through the self-designed software based on Python 3.6 environment for image cross-media data annotation and manual review standardization process with unified standards. Among them, 1 753 were randomly selected for training the deep learning system, and the remaining 247 were used for testing the system.

The 95% LoA of β-angle, of -7.7191 to 6.8777 ( Bias -0.42, P=0.077). Compared with those from 8 clinicians, the results of AI system interpretation were more stable, and the β-angle effect was more prominent. Conclusion:The AI system can quickly and accurately measure the Graf correlation index of standard DDH ultrasonic standard diagnosis plane.

Objective To explore the feasibility of tracking migration and distribution of SD-rat adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) labeled with Polyethylene Glycol/Polyehthyleneimine modified superparamagnetic iron oxide (PEG/PEI-SPIO) in rats with chronic cerebral ischemia using MRI.Methods Thirty female SD rats underwent permanent occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries 6 months were divided into PEG/PEI-SPIO labeled group and unlabeled group (each n =15).Labeled or unlabeled ADSCs suspension was injected into the right ventricle of rats in two groups,respectively.MR scans were performed at the 7th,14th and 21st day after transplantation for each 5 rats.T2 value of T2mapping sequence in hippocampus,cortex and cerebellum were measured.Then the rats were scarified,and the brains were obtained,and Prussia dyeing was performed.Under high magnification,blue dye cells at each time points and brain area were counted.T2 values and blue dye cells were statistically analyzed.Results Class round hypointensity areas were detected in temporol-parietal cortex and hippocampus in both groups on T2WI,T2* WI and SWI.T2 value of the right temporolparietal cortex and hippocampus in the labeled group was shorter than those of the unlabeled group on the 14th day after transplantation (P=0.013,0.045).T2 value of the right temporol-parietal cortex in the labeled group was shorter than that of the unlabeled group on the 21st day after transplantation (P=0.007).The number of blue dye cell of the right temporol-parietal cortex on the 14th and 21th day,hippocampus on the 14th day in the labeled group were more than those of the unlabeled group after transplantation (P=0.029,0.032,0.043).Conclusion ADSCs labeled with PEG/PEI-SPIO transplanted into lateral ventricle of SD rat could migrate to the damaged areas caused by chronic cerebral ischemia.It is possible to use quantitative MRI to track migration and distribution of ADSCs labeled with PEG/PEI-SPIO in rat brain.

Objective:To characterize the knee gait maps of ordinary people, athletes and patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury when walking on a level ground in order to identify potential kinematic indicators for early identification of ACL injury.Methods:From December 2021 to March 2022, 39 ordinary college students (normal group) and 39 college athletes (athlete group) were recruited in Southern Medical University, and 26 patients with ACL injury (patient group) were recruited at the Department of Orthopedics, Guangdong Provincial People＇s Hospital. The normal group consisted of 20 males and 19 females with a median age of 19 (18, 21) years; the athlete group consisted of 22 males and 17 females with a median age of 19 (18, 20) years; the patient group consisted of 23 males and 3 females with a median age of 20 (19, 20) years. A portable knee joint motion capture system was used to collect the knee gait maps of the subjects walking at a speed of 3 km/h on a treadmill. The knee varus and valgus angles, internal and external rotation angles, flexion and extension angles during the movement, and anteroposterior, medial-lateral superior-inferior displacements of the tibia relative to the femur were compared between the 3 groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the general data among the 3 groups except for gender, showing they were comparable ( P>0.05). There were significant differences in the varus and valgus angles during the whole gait cycle (1% to 100%), internal and external rotation angles during the weight-bearing response period (9% to 10%), flexion and extension angles during the stance phase and swing phase (1% to 27%, 29% to 100%), anteroposterior displacements during the weight-bearing reaction phase (1% to 3%) and at the end of the swing phase (96% to 98%), superior-inferior displacements at the middle support phase (15% to 19%), the end of the support phase (29% to 33%, 36% to 43%) and the swing phase (68% to 94%), and medial-lateral displacements at the middle stance phase and the middle swing phase (12% to 82%) among the 3 groups ( P<0.05). The maximum varus and valgus angles (-10.89°±4.55°, -12.20°±4.38°) of the subjects in the normal group and the athlete group were significantly greater than those in the patient group (-5.44°±3.72°) ( P<0.05). The medial-lateral displacement at the middle support phase [3.69 (0.13, 7.25) mm] of the subjects in the normal group was significantly larger than those in the athlete group and the patient group [-0.59 (-6.65, 5.24) mm, 0.96 (-1.54, 3.89) mm] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The gait of college athletes is significantly different from that of ordinary college students and that of patients with ACL injury. Indexes like the varus and valgus angles and the medial-lateral displacement may be used as potential indictors for early identification of ACL injury.
