BACKGROUND:The kidney tissues easily affected exercise ischemia reperfusion, increased free radicals and inflammation, resulted in abnormal renal function after acute exercise. OBJECTIVE:To observe the influence of Blackcurrant Extract on the structure of kidney and expression of tumor necrosis factor-α and nuclear factor-κB at 24 hours after exhaustiveexercise. METHODS:A total of 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups (n=10). Rats in the Blackcurrant Extract group were intragastricaly administered 0.44 g/kg Blackcurrant Extract. Rats in the quietness control group and 24-hour exhaustive exercise group were intragastricaly given an equal volume of distiled water for 6 consecutive weeks. Rats in the 24-hour exhaustive exercise group and Blackcurrant Extract group received no swimming motion until exhaustion fatigue after final intragastric administration. Twenty-four hours later, samples were obtained. Kidney tissue morphology and ultrastructure were observed by electron microscopy and light microscopy. Protein expression of tumor necrosis factor-α and nuclear factor-κB was detected using immunohistochemistry. Tumor necrosis factor-αmRNA and nuclear factor-κB mRNA expression was detected using RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the quietness control group, tumor necrosis factor-α protein and nuclear factor-κB protein expression in the kidney was higher in the 24-hour exhaustive exercise group, and tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA and nuclear factor-κB mRNA expression was significantly increased (P < 0.01). Compared with the 24-hour exhaustive exercise group, tumor necrosis factor-α protein and nuclear factor-κB protein expression was lower in the Blackcurrant Extract group, and nuclear factor-κB mRNA expression was significantly decreased (P < 0.05); tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA expression was significantly reduced (P < 0.01). Kidney in the 24-hour exhaustive exercise group showed obvious morphological changes and ultrastructural damage. The structure of the kidney in the Blackcurrant Extract group tended to be normal. Results suggested that Blackcurrant Extract can repair the kidney tissue injury, reduce the expression of inflammatory factors, and prevent inflammatory damage in the kidney at 24 hours after exhaustive exercise.

Aim To investigate the vasorelaxation effects of saponins from flower of Panax notoginsen on the isolated thoracica aorta ,and to explore its possible mechanism.Methods Total saponins were extracted and high phase liquid chromatography was utilized to describe saponins ingredients;SD rat thoracic aortas were isolated.In vitro vascular ring experiment was used to observe,basal state of saponins on vascular ring,and high concentrations of K+solution pre-con-traction and phenylephrine (PE ) pre-contraction caused by systolic and diastolic function of the re-sponse.And different inhibitors were combined to ex-amine the possible mechanism of notoginsenoside in vascular ring.Results Cumulative concentration of saponins had no significant effect on the basis of state vessels,but had significant effect on endothelium-in-tact aortic (MAX Relaxation 23.6%) rings pre-con-tracted by high concentrations of K+;endothelium and endothelial aortia had significant effect on PE pre-con-traction, and endothelium MAX relaxation was 55.5 1%.Calcium-free solution and saponin cultivated aortic rings significantly inhibited pre-contraction.Af-ter nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L-NAME and indom-ethacin incubating vascular ring ,it could significantly inhibited vasodilatory effect of saponin.Conclusion Saponins have concentration dependent diastolic func-tion on rat thoracic aorta,and its main ways cause vas-odilation.Endothelial dependent diastolic function is related to activation of nitric oxide synthase and cy-clooxygenase pathway.

Aim To evaluate the endothelial dysfunction level of different arteries at different stages of SHR,and the recovery after administration.Methods SHR model was used,captopril(3.375 g·kg~(-1)·d~(-1)) was administered from week 7 to week 24 and the effects were observed continuously until 8 weeks post treatment.Pathological changes of aorta,mesenteric and apex cordis arteries were examined at the time points of 6,18,24,32 wk,and the endothelial-dependent relaxation of the former two preparations were tested by acetylcholine(ACh)(n=6).Results There were pathological changes in the thoracic aorta,mesenteric artery and arteriole at 18 wk,and aggravated along the age.The thoracic aorta demonstrated the most severe pathological changes appearing endothelial cells ablated and tunica media thickening.The significant decline of endothelium-dependent relaxation in aorta,and mesenteric arteries of SHR reflected an aging dependent change of vascular function with the most severe situation in the aorta(P=0.10,18 wk,P<0.01 24,32 wk);captopril increased the aorta vasodilatation of SHR at 18 wk time point,without the effect in mesenteric artery(P<0.05 vs SHR).Conclusions During the progress of SHR,endothelial damages have been observed in all three kinds of vasculatures together with the reduced endothelial-dependent relaxation.The aorta presents earlier and deeper damage than middle and small size vessels,and is sensitive towards the antihypertensive therapy such as the angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor.

Objective To study the clinical characteristics of the newborns with gastroesophageal reflux (GER),and to compare the complications and outcomes of different degrees of reflux retrospectively. Methods Neo-nates diagnosed with GER by using upper gastrointestinal series admitted to neonatal ward of Peking University First Hospital from August 2008 to September 2017 were enrolled for the study. Data of demographic characteristics,radio-graphic imaging findings,treatment methods and efficacy of therapy of patients were collected. Infants enrolled in this study were followed up for 1 year after being discharged from hospital. The lasting time of reflux symptoms with different degrees of reflux were compared. Results A total of 47 cases of GER were enrolled,of whom 23 cases were male,and 24 cases were female. There were 42 term infants and 5 preterm infants. Their gestational age ranged from 34 to 41 weeks[(38. 9 ± 1. 6)weeks],and birth weight was from 1990 g to 4430 g[(3157. 3 ± 574. 0)g]. The median onset age was 2 days,ranged from 1 to 21 days. The clinical manifestations were recurrent vomiting (40 / 47 cases,85. 1％) and paroxysmal cyanosis (7 / 47 cases,14. 9％). Complications presented as poor weight gain (42 / 47 cases,89. 4％), aspiration pneumonia (24 / 47 cases,51. 1％)and apnea (1 / 47 cases,2. 1％). The findings of upper gastrointestinal imaging assigned the patients into 2 groups,13 cases of mild reflux group and 34 cases of severe reflux group. After po-sitional therapy together with domperidone,44 patients showed improvement of symptoms. After their discharge,the lasting time of reflux symptoms in the mild reflux group was significantly shorter than in the severe group [4 weeks(2 -8 weeks)vs. 8 weeks (2 - 40 weeks)],and the difference was significant(Z = - 2. 336,P < 0. 05). Conclusions Neonates with GER mainly manifest recurrent vomiting,and most of them have a favorable prognosis. The reflux symp-toms last for less time in the mild reflux infants than in the severe patients.

Objective To study the characteristics of gastroesophageal reflux (GER) in term neonates and the association between the reflux behaviors and gastroesophageal reflux events by multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH monitoring retrospectively.Method Full term neonates suspected to have gastroesophageal reflux,admitted to neonatal ward of our Hospital from November 2016 to December 2017 were enrolled for the study.All underwent 24-hour esophageal multichannel intraluminal impedance-pH (24 h MII-pH) monitoring.They were assigned into physiologic GER group and pathologic GER group.Data of demographic characteristics,clinical symptoms,24 h MII-pH results and indecies for evaluating the association between symptoms and reflux events were collected and analyzed.Result A total of 31 cases were enrolled.The median age of starting 24 MII-pH monitoring was 7 days (range from 2 to 28 days).15 cases were diagnosed with pathologic GER (48.4％),and 16 cases were diagnosed with physiologic GER.The symptoms and signs were persistent vomiting,incessant crying,desaturation (oxygen desaturation) and unexplained transient events (including cyanosis or suspected seizure),case number was 12,9,6,2,and 1 respectively.In the pathologic group,the median of total acid reflux 52 (7 to 80),total weakly acidic reflux 58 (19 to 114);In the physiologic group was 36 (3 to 55),35 (6 to 55) respectively.The neonates in pathologic group had more acidic reflux (both before and after feeding),total weak acid reflux and liquid reflux than physiological GER group,which showed statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).While there was no significant difference in acid reflux time of total,before feeding and after feeding (P ＞0.05).It was proved that the percentage of positive symptom indices of vomiting,postprandial transient events,incessant crying after feeding,and desaturation associated with GER were 100％,100％,66.7％and 33.3％ retrospectively,which indicate that postprandial transient events were associate with GER,and incessant crying,desaturation were partially related to GER.And no association was found between bradycardia and reflux events.Conclusion Pathological GER of term neonates mainly manifest as reflux of weakly acidic and liquid.24 h MII-pH monitoring could detect weakly acidic reflux and weakly alkaline reflux,so it would be the recommended diagnostic tool for neonatal gastroesophageal reflux.Despite vomiting,special attention should be paid to symptoms associated with GER,such as incessant crying,and unexplained transient events et al.

Objective: To understand the oral health status and associated factors of preschool children with disabilities in Bengbu City, so as to provide evidence for preventing dental caries in children with disabilities. Methods: From September 2021 to March 2022, a total of 405 preschool children with disabilities from two rehabilitation institutions in Bengbu were randomly selected for oral health examination, questionnaire survey and physical examination. The caries prevalence rate among disabled children was analyzed. After grouping based on childrens BMI, the correlation between body mass index (BMI) and dental caries among children was explored. Multivariate binary Logistic regression analysis was employed to investigate the factors associated with dental caries occurrence in children. Results: The prevalence of dental caries in preschool children with disabilities was 74.07%, with rates of 71.01% for boys and 77.27% for girls. There was a significant difference in caries prevalence between boys and girls aged 5（66.67%，88.24%） (χ2=7.53, P<0.05). There were significant differences in the dmft index among different BMI groups (underweight: 240, normal weight: 606, overweight:30,obese:60,H=35.66,P<0.05). BMI was negatively correlated with dmft（r=-0.50，P＜0.01）. Frequent tooth brushing (2-3 times daily), the use of fluoride toothpaste, limited intake of sugary foods (< 2 times/d) in the past six months, and exclusively breastfeeding within first six months were negatively correlated with the occurrence of dental caries in disabled children (OR=0.09，0.41，0.24, P＜0.05). Sleep forward to eat，parental education level of junior high school or lower, and parental education of vocational school or high school were positively correlated with dental caries (OR=3.18，5.95，3.99，66.95，7.75，P＜0.05). Conclusions The caries prevalence rate of disabled children in Bengbu City is high and is influenced by multiple factors. It is time to strengthen the oral health training for parents and teachers in educational institutions, pay attention to childrens oral health care, and help disabled children improve their quality of life.

The posterior iliac crescent fracture is a typical manifestation of injury to the posterior ring in the lateral extrusion type Ⅱ of the Young-Burgess classification for pelvic fractures. In recent years, scholars have put forward new ideas about injury mechanisms, imaging features, classification, pelvic stability and surgical procedures of this type of fractures. Minimally invasive reduction and internal fixation with percutaneous screws has been used more and more widely in the treatment of posterior iliac crescent fractures. This article reviews the clinical features, classification, treatment, problems and prospects of these fractures.

Lung cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the highest morbidity and mortality rate, and effective screening and early diagnosis methods can significantly reduce the morbidity and mortality rate of lung cancer patients. Traditional lung cancer detection methods mainly include imaging tests, sputum cell tests, bronchoscopy, and needle biopsy, but these methods have disadvantages such as being highly invasive, complicated operation processes, prone to false positives, and low detection index. Tumor markers can reflect the occurrence and development of tumors and can monitor the effect of tumor treatment. Therefore, tumor marker detection is of great significance for early cancer diagnosis. Biosensor technology is a new rapid detection technology with promising applications. In recent years, research related to biosensors has been intensified in clinical testing and biomedicine. In this paper, the traditional detection methods for lung cancer were briefly introduced, and the technologies and detection methods related to optical or electrochemical lung cancer tumor marker biosensors based on immunology, nanomaterials, and aptamers were highlighted in recent years, and the future development trend of lung cancer tumor marker biosensors was prospected.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of resveratrol (Res) on aging of marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and to explore its mechanism. METHODS: MSCs were isolated from young SD rats and cultured in vitro. The optimal D-gal concentration for induction of MSCs senescence was determined. Then MSCs were randomly divided into four groups, namely the control group, 10μmol/L, 50μmol/L and 100μmol/L Res groups. After the cells were treated with different concentration of Res for 48 h, the senescence-associated changes were examined with senescence-associated-β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining; the expression of p53, p16 and γ-H2AX was evaluated by Western blot. The total active oxygen species (ROS) level was determined by flow cytometry with DCFH-DA staining. In order to assess the effect of Res on the mitochondrial function, MitoSox Red staining was used to detect mitochondrial ROS levels in each group, mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by JC-1 assay, mPTP method was used to detect mitochondrial membrane channel opening level, and Western blot was used to detect the expression level of cytoplasmic cytochrome C (Cyt-C). RESULTS D-gal 10 and 50 g/L significantly increased the number of SA-β-gal positive cells and the level of mitochondrial ROS (all P<0.01). Therefore, 10 g/L D-gal was used to induce the senescence of MSCs in subsequent experiment. Compared with the control group, the number of SA-β-gal positive cells in Res groups significantly decreased (all P<0.01), the expression of p53, p16 and γ-H2AX decreased, and the total and mitochondrial ROS level also decreased (all P<0.01). Moreover, mitochondrial membrane potential, open level of mitochondrial membrane channels and the levels of cytoplasm Cyt-C in the Res treatment groups decreased compared with the control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Resveratrol can protect the mitochondrial function of MSCs, and effectively delay the MSC senescence.
