Objective Through the analysis of the clinical characteristics of post-interventional complications of ventilator-associ-ated pneumonia(VAP)in patients with hypertension and acute large vessel occlusive cerebral infarction(AIS-LVO),we aim to develop and validate a risk prediction model.Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of clinical data from 107 patients hospitalized for hypertension with AIS-LVO at Dongguan Hospital of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between July 2020 and Au-gust 2023.Patients were categorized into two groups based on their hospitalization:the VAP group,consisting of 64 patients who devel-oped VAP,and the non-VAP group,comprising 43 patients who did not experience VAP.Least absolute shrinkage and selection opera-tor regression(LASSO)analysis was employed to identify potential predictors.Subsequently,a nomogram model was constructed using multifactorial Logistic regression analysis.The model's discriminative ability,calibration,and clinical utility were assessed using the area(AUC)under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curves,and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results In 107 patients with hypertension and AIS-LVO who underwent interventional surgery,the incidence of VAP was 59.8％.The results revealed statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of age,presence of atrial fibrillation,admission national institutes of health stroke scale(NIHSS)score,admission glasgow coma scale(GCS)score,impaired consciousness,swallowing dysfunction,opera-tive time,postoperative 24-hour systemic inflammatory response index(SIRI),duration of mechanical ventilation,length of ICU stay,and the presence of an indwelling gastrostomy tube(P＜0.05).Additionally,the incidence of poor functional outcomes was 57.8％in the VAP group compared to 14.0％in the non-VAP group,indicating a worse prognosis for patients in the VAP group.The variables i-dentified through LASSO regression screening were included in a multifactorial Logistic regression analysis.This analysis revealed that the SIRI and the duration of mechanical ventilation were independent risk factors for the development of VAP following intervention in patients with hypertension and AIS-LVO(P＜0.05).Conversely,the admission GCS score was identified as a protective factor(P＜0.05).These three indicators were utilized to construct a prognostic nomogram model.The model's internal validity was assessed using the Boot-strap method with 1000 resamples,and the calibration curves were found to be in close agreement with the ideal fitted line,exhibiting a mean absolute error of 0.029,indicating good curve accuracy.The Logistic regression model's goodness of fit was evaluated using the Hos-mer and Lemeshow test,which yielded a x2 value of 5.38 and a P-value of 0.716,suggesting a good fit.The AUC of the model was 0.812(95％confidence interval 0.730-0.894),and the DCA indicated that the model has favorable clinical applicability.Conclusion A prediction model based on admission GCS score,postoperative 24-hour SIRI,and duration of mechanical ventilation demonstrates a robust predictive value for the incidence of VAP following intervention in patients with hypertension and acute ischemic stroke with AIS-LVO.

Objective:To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Omalizumab for treating pediatric allergic asthma in real world in China.Methods:The clinical data of children aged 6 to 11 years with allergic asthma who received Omalizumab treatment in 17 hospitals in China between July 6, 2018 and September 30, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Such information as the demographic characteristics, allergic history, family history, total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, specific IgE levels, skin prick test, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, eosinophil (EOS) counts, and comorbidities at baseline were collected.Descriptive analysis of the Omalizumab treatment mode was made, and the difference in the first dose, injection frequency and course of treatment between the Omalizumab treatment mode and the mode recommended in the instruction was investigated.Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE) analysis was made after Omalizumab treatment.The moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, lung functions were compared before and after Omalizumab treatment.Changes in the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) results from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks after Omalizumab treatment were studied.The commodity improvement was assessed.The adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE) were analyzed for the evaluation of Omalizumab treatment safety.The difference in the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation and ICS reduction was investigated by using t test.The significance level was set to 0.05.Other parameters were all subject to descriptive analysis.A total of 200 allergic asthma patients were enrolled, including 75.5% ( n=151) males and 24.5% ( n=49) females.The patients aged (8.20±1.81) years. Results:The median total IgE level of the 200 patients was 513.5 (24.4-11 600.0) IU/mL.Their median treatment time with Omalizumab was 112 (1-666) days.Their first dose of Omalizumab was 300 (150-600) mg.Of the 200 cases, 114 cases (57.0%) followed the first Omalizumab dosage recommended in the instruction.After 4-6 months of Omalizumab treatment, 88.5% of the patients enrolled ( n=117) responded to Omalizumab.After 4 weeks of treatment with Omalizumab, asthma was well-controlled, with an increased C-ACT score [from (22.70±3.70) points to (18.90±3.74) points at baseline]. Four-six months after Omalizumab administration, the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation had a reduction of (2.00±5.68) per patient year( t=4.702 5, P<0.001), the median ICS daily dose was lowered [0 (0-240) μg vs. 160 (50-4 000) μg at baseline] ( P<0.001), the PAQLQ score was improved [(154.90±8.57) points vs. (122.80±27.15) points at baseline], and the forced expiratory volume in one second % predicted (FEV 1%pred) was increased [(92.80±10.50)% vs. (89.70±18.17)% at baseline]. In patients with available evaluations for comorbidities, including allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema, urticaria, allergic conjunctivitis and sinusitis, 92.8%-100.0% showed improved symptoms.A total of 124 AE were reported in 58 (29.0%) of the 200 patients, and the annual incidence was 0(0-15.1) per patient year.In 53 patients who suffered AE, 44 patients (83.0%) and 9 patients (17.0%) reported mild and moderate AE, respectively.No severe AE were observed in patients.The annual incidence of SAE was 0(0-1.9) per patient year.Most common drug-related AE were abdominal pain (2 patients, 1.0%) and fever (2 patients, 1.0%). No patient withdrew Omalizumab due to AE. Conclusions:Omalizumab shows good effectiveness and safety for the treatment of asthma in children.It can reduce the moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, reduce the ICS dose, improve asthma control levels, and improve lung functions and quality of life of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the abnormal changes of gray matter structure covariant network in post-stroke aphasia (PSA) patients. MethodsFrom June, 2019 to March, 2022, 15 PSA patients (patient group) from Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were recruited, as well as 15 healthy subjects (control group). Their brain structure magnetic resonance imaging data were collected. The brain covariant network was constructed based on gray matter volume correlation, and graph theory analysis method was used to evaluate the global and node network level topology properties of structural covariant network. The differences of gray matter covariant network properties between patients and controls were compared. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the global network level topology properties between two groups (P > 0.05). At the nodal level, compared with the control group, the betweenness decreased in the right middle frontal gyrus, right posterior cingulate gyrus, right amygdala, left middle occipital gyrus, and increased in the right inferior frontal gyrus and the right suboccipital gyrus of the insula operculum (P < 0.05); the node degree decreased in the left superior frontal gyrus, left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus, left hippocampus and left amygdala, while it increased in the right inferior frontal gyrus, left supplementary motor area, right superior occipital gyrus, right inferior occipital gyrus, and right lentiform pallidus (P < 0.05); the node efficiency decreased in the left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus, left hippocampus, left amygdala, left temporal pole: superior temporal gyrus, and increased in the inferior frontal gyrus of right insula, left supplementary motor area and right suboccipital gyrus (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe abnormal reduction of node network properties in some brain regions in the left hemisphere of PSA patients may be a characteristic structural covariation pattern, and there may be some compensation in the right hemisphere of the structural network in some brain regions.

Objective:To analyze the influences of leukocytes on improving blood glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontitis after periodontal mechanical therapy.Methods:Thirty-five patients visiting Peking University Third Hospital from March 2011 to August 2012, as well as thirty-four patients visiting Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from March 2011 to August 2012 and December 2016 to December 2018 were selected in this research. These subjects were non-smokers, and with moderate to severe chronic periodontitis and T2DM. The full set of periodontal examinations including probing depth (PD), attachment loss (AL), bleeding index (BI) and plaque index (PLI) were conducted. Besides, counts of white blood cells (WBC), parameters of glucose and lipids metabolites such as fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) in serum were examined before treatment. Then, oral hygiene instruction, scaling and root planing (SRP) were carried out. Three months after SRP, the baseline examinations were repeated in all patients. According to the baseline leukocyte counts, the patients were divided into subgroups: low WBC group (WBC<6.19×10 9/L) and high WBC group (WBC≥6.19×10 9/L). Paired t-test for comparison of changes after treatment, analysis of co-variance for comparing the intervention effects between subgroups, and multifactor Logistic regression analysis were performed. Results:Three months after SRP, all periodontal indexes were significantly improved in both groups. Leukocyte counts decreased significantly in high WBC group (6.89±1.53 vs. 7.64±1.51, P=0.008). In high WBC group, HbA 1c (7.18±1.09 vs. 7.67±1.35, P=0.001) and LDL (2.67±0.85 vs. 3.28±0.76, P=0.042) decreased significantly, while there were no such differences in low WBC group. Influence of leukocyte level on HbA 1c ( OR=0.12, P=0.038) and LDL ( OR=0.15, P=0.001) improvement was statistically significant. Hierarchical analysis showed such improvement notably perform in female [HbA 1c ( OR=0.30, P=0.021), LDL ( OR=0.34, P=0.001)] and severe periodontitis group [HbA 1c ( OR=0.15, P=0.025), LDL ( OR=0.24, P=0.017)]. Through interaction test, female and leukocyte counts at baseline had relative excess risk affecting the effect of periodontal intervention on HbA 1c ( P=0.036) and LDL ( P=0.005). Conclusions:SRP could significantly improve the blood glucose and lipid control in patients who had T2DM and chronic periodontitis with relative higher leukocytes level. Female patients with severe periodontitis showed more obviously effects.

Circular RNA is a special kind of endogenous non-coding RNA which is widely existing in eukaryotic cells. More studies confirmed that most circRNAs were produced in the process of RNA shearing and played a vital role in the occurrence and development of many diseases. Though there was not much research on circRNAs related to orthopaedic diseases in recent years, study found that circRNAs played a great significant role in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, target therapy of degenerative diseases(osteoarthritis, lumbar degenerative disease), metabolic diseases(osteoporosis) and motor system tumor(osteosarcoma). This study summarizes the research progress of circRNAs in orthopaedic diseases.

OBJECTIVE: To screen potential plasma protein biomarkers for the progression of cervical precancerous lesions into cervical carcinoma and analyze their functions. METHODS: Plasma samples obtained from healthy control subjects, patients with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), cervical cancer (CC), and patients with CC after treatment were enriched for low-abundance proteins for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. The MS data of the samples were analyzed using Discoverer 2.2 software, and the differential proteins (peptide coverage ≥20%, unique peptides≥2) were screened by comparison of LSIL, HSIL and CC groups against the control group followed by verification using target proteomics technology. Protein function enrichment and coexpression analyses were carried out to explore the role of the differentially expressed proteins as potential biomarkers and their pathological mechanisms. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, both LSIL group and HSIL group showed 9 differential proteins; 5 differentially expressed proteins were identified in CC group. The proteins ORM2 and HPR showed obvious differential expressions in LSIL and HSIL groups compared with the control group, and could serve as potential biomarkers for the progression of cervical carcinoma. The expression of F9 increased consistently with the lesion progression from LSIL to HSIL and CC, suggesting its value as a potential biomarker for the progression of cervical cancer. CFI and AFM protein levels were obviously decreased in treated patients with CC compared with the patients before treatment, indicating their predictive value for the therapeutic efficacy. Protein function enrichment analysis showed that all these differentially expressed proteins were associated with the complement system and the coagulation cascades pathway. CONCLUSIONS We identified 5 new protein biomarkers (F9, CFI, AFM, HPR, and ORM2) for cervical precancerous lesions and for prognostic evaluation of CC, and combined detection of these biomarkers may help in the evaluation of the development and progression of CC and also in improving the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of cervical lesions.
