Background Acute retinal ischemia anoxic injury is common in eye disorders,such as acute glaucoma,central retinal artery occlusion and ischemic optic neuropathy,etc.This will cause retinal ischemia anoxic injury and induce retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) death in addition.Endogenous cannabinoid (CB) and its receptors are involved in the central nervous system injury,ischemia,inflammation,and poisoning and other physiological and pathological process.Objective This study was to investigate the effect of CB on RGCs damage induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD).Methods The eyeballs were obtained from 6-week-old normal C57BL/6J mice to prepare retinal frozen sectionsand the expression and distribution of cannabinoid receptors (CB1R and CB2R) in RGCs was detected by immunofluorescence staining.The eyeballs of ten newborn C57BL/6J mice (postnatal 0-3 days) were obtained after immersed by 75％ alcohol and the retinas were isolated in preeooling DMEM for the primary culture of RGCs.The cells were identified by detecting the expression of Brn3a,a marker of RGCs,with immunofluorescence staining.Then the cells cultured for 14 days were divided into normal control group (in complete culture medium+95％ air+5％ CO2) and OGD group (in glucose-free medium+95％ N2 +4％ CO2 + 1％ O2) for 20 hours.The mitochondrial damage and RGCs morphology changed were evaluated by JC-1 staining to observe the mitochondrial membrane potential change.SR141716A (CB1R antagonist,1 μmol/L),SR144528 (CB2R antagonist,1 μmol/L) and 5 or 10 μmol/L WIN 55212-2 (CB1R and CB2R agonist) were added,and the survival rate of RGCs was assayed MTT.Results CBR was positively expressed in various layers of normal mouse retinas.The cells in the normal control group showed uniform size and polygon in shape with the long and thin axons,and the expression of Brn-3a was seen in the cells.However,in the OGD group,cell shrinkage and fragments were found and most of the axons disappeared.The expression of Brn-3a was evidently weakened.The fluorescence intensity of JC-1 was evidently weakened in the OGD group compared with the normal control group,showing the reduce of mitochondrial membrane potential.MTT assay showed that the survival rate of RGCs was (100.00± 13.87)％,which was significantly higher than (89.52-± 18.16)％ in the normal control group (q =8.065,P =0.008).The mean survival rates of RGCs were (116.63±22.21)％ and (112.61 ±19.02)％ in the cells treated by SR141716A and SR144528,and that in the normal cells was (89.52 ± 18.16)％ in the OGD group,with significant differences between SR141716A-or SR144528-treated cells and normal cells (q =29.780,17.391;both at P＜ 0.01).Conclusions Hypoxia and glucose-free up-regulate the expression of CB and activate CB pathway.Inhibition of activation CBR process has a neuroprotection effect under the Hypoxia and glucose-free condition.

Objective To study the relationship between detachment and puncture site and chest wall thickness after preoperative positioning of peripheral lung nodules by CT-guided Hookwire puncture.Methods From July 2017 to December 2021,190 patients in our hospital underwent thoracoscopic surgery for peripheral lung nodules.All patients underwent preoperative CT-guided HOOKWIRE puncture mapping,recording the puncture site,whether the needle had fallen off,chest wall thickness,and the interval between the end of the puncture and the start of the surgery,logistic regression analysis,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis to explore the risk factors affecting needle fall off.Results Clinical data were collected for 190 patients,including 119 males and 71 females,age 22 to 78(58.1±10.2)years.There were 31 cases of shedding,with a shedding rate of 16.3％.Among them,31 cases were detached in the medial aspect of the subscapular horn line,15 cases were detached,with detachment rate being 48.4％;67 cases were detached in the medial axillary line,10 cases were detached,with detachment rate being 14.9％;65 cases were detached in the medial axillary line of the midclavicular line,5 cases were detached,with detachment rate being 7.6％;27 cases were detached in the medial axillary line,1 case was detached,with detachment rate being 3.7％;the detachment rate was highest in the subscapular horn line,with statistical significance(P＜0.05)compared with other locations;the tissue thickness of the thoracic wall was(49.38±6.28)mm,but the tissue thickness of the thoracic wall was(36.36±7.77)mm,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The interval between puncture and operation was 73 to 98 min,with an average one of(81.99±4.48)min.Conclusions The detachment of the positioning needle is related to the thickness of the chest wall,and the proportion of detachment is significantly higher in the chest back,especially in the subscapular angle,before surgical treatment of peripheral lung nodules.In cases of peripheral pulmonary nodules with surface projections medial to the inferior scapular horn line,other methods of localization should be preferably considered.

Objective:To summarize the characteristics of nailfold capillaroscopy (NC) in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and explore its clinical significance.Methods:NC examination was performed in 162 SLE patients. The clinical data of SLE patients was collected. Tianniu NC scoring standard was used. The t test was applied to analyze the measurement data, the χ2 test was applied to analyze the counting data. the Pearson or Spearman test was used to evaluate the correlative factors of NC in patients with SLE. Results:NC abnormalities were seen in 87.7%(142/162) of SLE patients, and the incidence of mild, moderate and severe abnormalities was 29.0%(47 cases), 45.1%(73 cases) and 13.6%(22 cases) respectively. The most common NC abnormal manifestation in SLE patients was decreased blood flow velocity (86.4%). In patients with moderate to severe NC abnormalities, the proportions of patients with Raynaud's phenomenon (37.9% vs 23.9%, χ2=2.955, P=0.043) and interstitial lung disease (8.0% vs 0, χ2=5.213, P=0.023), and the level of D-Dimer [(1 992±2 279) μg/L vs (1 248±1 721) μg/L, t=-1.624, P=0.013] were significantly higher than those in the groups with normal/mild NC abnormalities. Correlation analysis demonstrated that Raynaud's phenomena, interstitial lung disease, pulmonary hypertension and D-Dimer were positively correlated with the NC abnormality. Conclusion:NC abnormalities are common in SLE patients. Decreased blood flow velocity is the most frequent manifestation. SLE patients with moderate to severe NC abnormalities should be actively screened for pulmonary hypertension and interstitial lung disease.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of duodenal neuroendocrine neoplasms.Methods:The clinical data of 35 patients with duodenal neuroendocrine neoplasms admitted to Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science & Technology from Jan 2012 to Dec 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The differences of clinical characteristics between periampullary and non-periampullary duodenal neuroendocrine neoplasms were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier curve was used for survival analysis, and the clinical factors affecting the prognosis were analyzed.Results:Of the 35 patients, 30 underwent tumor resection, 7 (23%) developed different degree of complications after operation and were improved and discharged after intervention. A total of 5 patients died during the follow-up period. Only 1 of 30 patients who underwent tumor resection died 30 months after operation due to disease progression, and the others had no recurrence or metastasis. Univariate analysis showed that tumor size, tumor grade, and tumor location were associated with the prognosis of patients (all P<0.05), and multivariate analysis showed that patients with tumors located.Away from the ampulla had a significantly better prognosis than those located around the duodenal ampulla ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Patients with duodenal neuroendocrine neoplasms have a good prognosis after complete resection; patients with duodenal neuroendocrine neoplasms located around the ampulla of Vater have a relatively poor prognosis compared with those away from the area of ampulla.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of IA regimen which contains idarubicin (IDA) 8 mg/m², 10 mg/m² or 12 mg/m² as induction chemotherapy for adult patients with de-novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) . Methods: A total of 1 215 newly diagnosed adult AML patients, ranging from May 2011 to March 2015 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and other 36 clinical blood centers in China were enrolled in the multicenter, single-blind, non-randomized, clinical controlled study. To compare the response rate of complete remission (CR) , adverse events between different dose idarubicin combined with cytarabine (100 mg/m²) as induction chemotherapy in newly diagnosed patients of adult AML. Results: Of 1 207 evaluable AML patients were assigned to this analysis of CR rate. The CR rates of IDA 8 mg/m² group, IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 73.6% (215/292) , 84.1% (662/787) and 86.7% (111/128) , respectively (P<0.001) . After adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow, FAB classification and risk stratification, the odds ratios (95% CI) of IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 0.49 (0.34-0.70) and 0.36 (0.18-0.71) , as compared with the IDA 8 mg/m² group (P<0.001, P=0.003) . In the intermediate and favorable groups, CR rates was 76.5% (163/213) , 86.9% (506/582) and 86.1% (68/79) in different doses of IDA (P=0.007) . Interestingly, IA regimen with IDA 10 mg/m² was the only beneficial factor affecting CR in this group after adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow and FAB classification[OR=0.47 (95% CI 0.31-0.71) , P<0.001]. CR rates in adverse group was 50.0% (18/36) , 60.6% (43/71) and 81.8% (18/22) respectively (P=0.089) . However, the odds ratios (95% CI) of IDA 12 mg/m² when compared with the IDA 8 mg/m² was 0.22 (0.06-0.80) , after adjusted for age, blast ratio of bone marrow and FAB classification. The median time (days) of neutrophil count less than 0.5×10⁹/L in IDA 8 mg/m² group, IDA 10 mg/m² group and IDA 12 mg/m² group were 14 (11-18) , 15 (11-20) and 18 (14-22) , respectively (P=0.012) and of platelet count lower than 20×10⁹/L were 14 (7-17) , 15 (11-20) and 17 (15-21) , respectively (P=0.001) . The incidences of lung infection in the three groups were 9.8%, 13.5% and 25.2%, respectively (P<0.001) . Conclusions For young adult patients (aged 18-60 years) with AML in China, intensifying induction therapy with idarubicin 10 mg/m² is clinically superior to IDA 8 mg/m² and IDA 12 mg/m² in favorable intermediate AML subgroup. However, idarubicin 12 mg/m² is more suitable to adverse AML subgroup.

A new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been identified as the etiologic agent for the COVID-19 outbreak. Currently, effective treatment options remain very limited for this disease; therefore, there is an urgent need to identify new anti-COVID-19 agents. In this study, we screened over 6,000 compounds that included approved drugs, drug candidates in clinical trials, and pharmacologically active compounds to identify leads that target the SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease (PLpro).
