Objective To study the effect of medically activated charcoal on serum phosphorus level and calcium-phosphorus products in dialysis patients with poorly controlled hyperphosphatemia. Methods A single-center,prospective,self-controlled study was performed.Medically activated charcoal was administered 4.5-7.2 g per day with meals for three months to hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis patients with hyperphosphatemia after taking calcium-based phosphate binders.The levels of blood phosphorus,calcium,calcium-phosphorus products,intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH),albumin and hemoglobin were detected before and after the treatment.The results were analyzed using paired t-test. Results After 3 months of treatment,the patients' serum phosphorus level was significantly reduced from (2.16 ±0.34) mmol/L (pretreatment) to (1.85±0.30) mmol/L (post-treatment) (P<0.01).Similarly,the serum calciumphosphorus products were lowered from pre-treatment level of (63.93 ±8.83) mg2/dl2 to posttreatment of (54.12±8.37) mg2/dl2 (P<0.01).Serum albumin level was slightly reduced from (41.7±2.9) g/L to (40.1±2.2) g/L (P=0.001).In contrast,there were no significant changes in serum calcium and iPTH levels when compared pre- to post-treatment values (P=0.734 and P=0.665,repectively). Conclusion In combination with calcium-based phosphate binder therapy,oral medically activated charcoal can effectively reduce the levels of blood phosphorus and calciumphosphorus products in dialysis patients with refractory hyperphosphatemia.

Objective To investigate the effects of inhibitor of growth 5 (ING5) gene on the proliferation, apoptosis, migration and cell cycle of human breast cancer Bcap-37 cells.Methods The eukaryotic ING5-expressing plasmid and GFP-empty plasmid were steadily transfected in Bcap-37 cells, the expression of green fluorescent protein was measured with fluorescence microscopy, and the high expression of ING5 was measured by real time-PCR. Bcap-37-ING5 cells served as the experimental group, Bcap-37-GFP cells as the mock group and Bcap-37 as the control group. The effects of ING5 on the proliferation were detected by MTT, the cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by Flow cytometry, and the cell migration was detected by cell wound scratch assay and Transwell experiment.Results Bcap-37 cell lines steadily expressing ING5 protein with GFP-tag were acquired by stable transfection. ING5 over-expression inhibited the proliferation and led to G2 arrest of Bcap-37 cells, increased cells apoptosis and decreased the cell migration ability (P<0.05).Conclusion ING5 over-expression may have reverse effect for malignant phenotype of breast cancer cells, and may be employed to indicate the biomarker of prognosis of breast cancer patients and regarded as a target of gene therapy.

Deepening the teaching reform of medical education is the strategic initiatives to improve the quality of medical talents in the new period. At present, curriculum teaching reform and the certification work in medical colleges and universities is still in the initial exploration stage. Although some achievements have been made, there are still some prominent problems, such as insufficient teacher drive, inaccurate orientation for the curriculum, improper ways of teaching, lack of organizational and appraising system. Xuzhou Medical University takes the declaration and accreditation of educational reform courses as the forerunner, and takes many measures to stimulate teachers' endogenous motivation of educational reform, innovate the organizational system of educational reform courses evaluation, establish progressive evaluation and accreditation management, formulate evaluation standards of educational reform courses, and form a closed loop of multiple evaluation and feedback. It not only effectively improves the quality of teaching and further promote the curriculum reform process, but also provides reference for the development and promotion of curriculum teaching reform in other colleges and universities.

Objective:To investigate the value of radiomics based on three-dimensional high resolution MR vessel wall imaging (3D HRMR-VWI) for identifying culprit plaques in symptomatic patients with middle cerebral atherosclerosis.Methods:The clinical and imaging features of 117 patients (139 middle cerebral artery plaques) with cerebrovascular diseases in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from October 2018 to October 2020 were respectively reviewed. Stratified random sampling was used to divide 139 plaques into training set (97 plaques) and validation set (42 plaque) at the ratio of 7∶3. The plaques were divided into 69 culprit plaques and 70 non-culprit plaques based on plaque MR features and clinical symptoms. The clinical and imaging characteristics of culprit plaques and non-culprit plaques were compared by independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and χ 2 test, and factors with significant difference between two groups in univariate analysis were further analyzed by multivariate logistic regression to find out the independent predictors of culprit plaques. Radiomics features were extracted, screened and radiomics model was constructed using pre-and post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI based on the training set. The combined model was constructed by combining the independent predictors and radiomics model. Receiver operating characteristic curve and area under curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the efficacy of each model, and DeLong test was used to compare the efficacy of different models. Results:Significant difference was found in intraplaque hemorrhage, lumen area of stenosis, stenosis diameter, stenosis rate, plaque burden and enhancement rate between culprit and non-culprit plaques (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that only intraplaque hemorrhage was the independent predictor for culprit plaques (OR=7.045,95%CI 1.402-35.397, P=0.018). In the validation set, the AUC of the pre-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model was lower than that of the post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model ( Z=-2.01, P=0.044). The AUC of pre+post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model was not significantly different from that of post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model ( Z=0.79, P=0.427). The AUC showed no significant difference between combined model and pre+post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model ( Z=-0.59, P>0.05). The combined model showed the best performance in predicting culprit plaques of middle cerebral artery (AUC=0.939), with the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 95.24%, 76.19% and 85.71%. Conclusion:Radiomics based on 3D HRMR-VWI has potential values in identifying culprit plaques in symptomatic patients with middle cerebral atherosclerosis.
