Neuropathological, clinical epidemiology and animal models studies provide clear evidence for the activation of neuroinflammation in Alzheimer's disease (AD), and long-term use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is linked with reduced risk to develop the disease. But the clinical trials got a negative outcome with traditional NSAIDs treating AD. The therapeutic effects of NSAIDs on Alzheimer's disease are still not clear based on the present research. Profound study for anti-inflammatory mechanisms and standardized clinical trials are needed. As cause and effect relationships between neuroinflammation and AD are being worked out, the challenge is how to realize the effect of traditional NSAIDs on treating AD.

Objective To study the effects of rehabilitation training on the synaptic ultrastructure of the brain cortex after cerebral ischemia.Methods Sixty rats were randomly divided into a sham operation group,a cerebral ischemia group and a rehabilitation training group.A model of focal cerebral ischemia was created in the rats of the cerebral ischemia and rehabilitation training groups.The rehabilitation training group was given balancing,grasping,rotation and walking training every day.The sham operation group and cerebral ischemia group were kept in normal cages,taking food and moving freely.Electron microscopy was used to observe the density and ultrastructure of the cortical synapses at days 1,7,14 and 21 after the operation.Results In the sham operation group there were numerous synaptic terminals in the cortical neuropil.The majority of synapses were Gray type Ⅱ,containing spherical synaptic vesicles in presynaptic elements.After cerebral ischemia,the number of synaptic terminals had decreased and the synaptic structure was damaged.The synaptic vesicles lessened and dissolved.The presynaptic and postsynaptic membranes became unclear.At 21d after ischemia,the synaptic vesicles had disappeared and the presynaptic and postsynaptic membranes were damaged so seriously that the typical synaptic structure disappeared.After rehabilitation training,the damaged synaptic terminals recovered.Conclusions The synaptic structure was damaged after cerebral ischemia,and the damaged synaptic terminals recovered after rehabilitation training.Rehabilitation training can enhance synaptogenesis in the brain's cortex after cerebral ischemia and promote the recovery of motor function,at least in rats.

Trichinella spiralis,Ascaris lumbricoides,and Taenia crassiceps are all parasitic helminths that can infect humans.After invading host,the parasites can induce immune responses such as activation of immune cells and induction of cytokines in the host.The immune responses induced by parasitic helminths have similarities with anti-tumor immune responses.Recent studies have demonstrated that infection of Trichinella spiralis,Ascaris lumbricoides,or Taenia crassiceps can inhibit the development of several kinds of tumors to some extent.In this paper,the progress of anti-tumor effects induced by the above-mentioned helminths on liver cancer,lung cancer,breast cancer,malignant melanoma,myeloma,and other cancers is reviewed,which may provide a valuable reference for treatment of tumors by the immune response to helminthic infection.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication in the treatment of simple renal cysts.Methods:PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, CNKI, VIP and WanFang databases were searched, All studies about comparing transperitoneal and retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication for simple renal cysts were included. The evaluation indicators included operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage time, postoperative hospital stay, and complication rate. Statistical analysis of the data using RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A total of 14 control studies were included, 409 cases in the transperitoneal group and 452 cases in the retroperitoneal group. Meta-analysis demonstrated that compared with the transperitoneal group, the retroperitoneal group had shorter operation time ( MD=8.81, 95% CI: 3.79-13.82, P<0.01), less intraoperative blood loss ( MD=4.89, 95% CI: 1.40-8.38, P<0.01), and shorter postoperative hospital stay ( MD=0.60, 95% CI: 0.24-0.96, P<0.01). However, there were not significant differences between the two approaches in postoperative drainage time ( MD=-0.12, 95% CI: -0.26-0.03, P=0.13) and complication rate ( OR=1.47, 95% CI: 0.48-4.47, P=0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the transperitoneal, the retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication has the advantages of short operation time, less intraoperative blood loss and short postoperative hospital stay. Therefore, retroperitoneal laparoscopic decortication is expected to be the first choice for the treatment of simple renal cysts.

Bladder cancer is a common malignancy in the genitourinary system and the current therapeutic approaches are unsatisfactory. Urinary cell-free DNA (ucf DNA) has the ability to give comprehensive and crucial information on cancer as it carries genetic messages from cells shedding directly into urine as well as transporting from circulation. The ucf DNA of patients with bladder cancer carries disease information, suggesting that ucf DNA may have the ability to detect, monitor, and prognosticate patients with bladder cancer. The ucf DNA analysis bridges the gap between current techniques and enhances diagnostic and detection capabilities, and has a very promising future in term of translation into clinical practice. This article reviewed the progress of clinical applications of ucf DNA in bladder cancer.

Objective:To study the stability and influencing factors of potassium iodate iodized salt that can be sold in Jilin Province.Methods:In November 2020, 10 large supermarkets were randomly selected in Jilin Province, and two kinds of potassium iodate iodized salts were randomly selected in each supermarket, with five copies of each kind, a total of 100 samples of iodized salt, and the iodine content was determined by spectrophotometry (iodide-starch blue light method). Iodized salt samples were classified according to different salt species (mine salt, sea salt and lake salt) and different production processes (refined salt and non-refined salt). The salt was stored at room temperature, and the iodine content in the salt was measured at 0, 10 and 20 days after opening the packaging. The iodine content attenuation rates of different salt species and different production processes were compared.Results:The mine salt, sea salt and lake salt in iodized salt samples were 45, 45 and 10 portions, respectively. The iodine contents of the 0th day of storage [(19.89 ± 1.38), (20.62 ± 1.91), (19.78 ± 1.01) mg/kg] were compared, and the difference was not statistically significant ( F = 2.57, P = 0.093). On the 10th day, the iodine content of mine salt was lower than that of sea salt and lake salt, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05); on the 20th day, the iodine content of mine salt was lower than that of sea salt, and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in the iodine content of mine salt stored at 0, 10 and 20 days ( F = 90.62, P < 0.001). The iodine content of sea salt and lake salt on the 20th day was significantly lower than that on the 0th and 10th day, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The iodine content attenuation rates of mine salt, sea salt and lake salt on the 0 - 10 days was compared with that on the 10 - 20 days, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = 2.24, 2.94, 2.80, P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in the iodine content attenuation rates of mine salt, sea salt and lake salt during the 0 - 10 days of storage ( Z = 24.05, P < 0.001), there was no statistically significant difference in the iodine content attenuation rates on 10 - 20 days ( Z = 5.86, P = 0.053). There was no significant difference in iodine content attenuation rates between refined salt and non-refined salt on 0 - 10, 10 - 20 days ( Z = 1.16, 0.28, P > 0.05). There was no statistical significant difference in the iodine content attenuation rates of refined salt and non-refined salt on the 0 - 10 days compared with those of 10 - 20 days ( Z = 0.76, 1.90, P > 0.05). Conclusions:Iodine loss occurs at 20 days after opening the packaging of iodized salt in Jilin Province. The attenuation of iodine content is less affected by salt species and production processes. It is recommended to eat iodized salt within 20 days after opening the packaging.

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of mobile APP in telemanagement for patients who received oral warfarin anticoagulant therapy after mechanical heart valve replacement. Methods A prospective cohort study was performed. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 80 patients who underwent mechanical heart valve replacement for more than half a year and received oral warfarin anticoagulant therapy in outpatient department were included in our hospital from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017. These patients were divided into a telemanagement group (40 paitents, telemanagement using mobile APP) and a control group (40 patients, anticoagulant management in outpatient clinics) according to patients' wishes and local hospital international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring conditions. After 12-month follow-up, clinical effect of the two groups was compared. The INR, time in therapeutic range (TTR), fraction in therapeutic range (FTTR), anticoagulation-related complications and patient satisfaction were analyzed. Results During the follow-up period of anticoagulation, there was no significant difference in INR between the two groups (P=0.732). The average interval of INR monitoring in the telemanagement group was 3-65 (21.4 ± 12.5) days, while that in the control group was 7-93 (39.6 ± 14.7) days (P=0.012). TTR was 42.7% (6 027.6 d/14 116.0 d) in the control group and 67.9% (10 168.6 d/14 972.0 d) in the telemanagement group (P=0.018). And FTTR in the two groups was 45.6% (144/316) and 67.1% (432/644), respectively (P=0.015). No serious thromboembolism or hemorrhage events occurred in the 80 patients during the 12-month follow-up period. There was no significant difference in the incidence of anticoagulation-related complications, general bleeding and embolism between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion For patients with stable anticoagulation after cardiac mechanical valve replacement, it is safe and effective to telemanagement by mobile APP. Telemanagement can increase the frequency of anticoagulation monitoring without increasing anticoagulation risk, meanwhile, it also could obtain more convenient and rapid consultation, save time and economic costs,and improve the quality of life and patient satisfaction.
