BACKGROUND:Studies in recent years have demonstrated that arginase Ⅰ contribute to the process of numerous cardiovascular diseases,however,most of studies focus on arteries,few regarding venous diseases.OBJECTIVE:To explore the changes of arginase Ⅰ expression in rat traumatic deep venous thrombosis models,and to analyze the possible function of arginase Ⅰ in deep venous thrombosis formation.METHODS:Totally 100 Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into the control and model groups.Traumatic deep venous thrombosis models were established by clamping the femoral vein and immobilizing the bilateral hind limbs (hip spica cast fixation),and assigned into initial thrombosis,peak thrombosis and non-thrombosis groups according to different observing time points and pathophysiological situations of thrombosis.Whole blood RNA of each group was extracted,and the change of arginase I expression in blood cells of each group was detected by real-time PCR.RESULTS AND CONCLUSUON:Expression of arginase Ⅰ in the peak thrombosis group was significantly increased compared with other 3 groups (P < 0.01).There were no significances among control,initial thrombosis and non-thrombosis groups (P > 0.05).The finding demonstrated that arginase Ⅰ is closely related to deep vein thrombosis formation.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of temporal small bone window microscopic craniot-omy in treating cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia region.Methods The retrospective analysis was adopt-ed.A total of 130 patients with intracerebral hemorrhage in the basal ganglia region treated in the Department of Neurosurgery of this hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 were selected as the study subjects.The patients treated by traditional frontotemporal large bone flap craniotomy hematoma removal were included in-to the control group (n=82) and the patients adopting temporal straight incision small bone window hemato-ma removal were included into the study group (n=48).The general data,surgical indicators,clinical efficacy,degree of neurological impairment,postoperative complications and postoperative quality of life of the patients were statistically analyzed.Results There were no statistically significant differences in preoperative Glasgow (GCS) score,gender,age and hematoma volume between the two groups (P>0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the average hematoma clearance rate between the two groups (P>0.05);compared with the control group,the operation time and hospital stay of the study group were shorter,the incidence of severe edema and suboccipital fluid accumulation were lower,and the good prognosis rate was higher,with sta-tistical significance (P<0.05).Conclusion Temporal straight incision small bone window microscopic hema-toma removal in treating cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia region has mild edema reaction of brain tissue in operative area,the neurological function obtains the better protection and the good prognostic rate of the pa-tients is significantly increased.

Objective:To learn about the infection and gene polymorphisms of hepatitis E virus (HEV) in murine-shaped animals of plague foci in Yunnan Province.Methods:From July to August 2019, around 16 natural villages (4 in Mile City, 6 in Mangshi and 6 in Lianghe County), which were the foci of domestic plague in Yunnan Province, the murine-shaped animals were captured by the night-time method. The liver RNA was extracted, and the target gene of rat HEV was detected by one-step real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the positive rate of rat HEV was calculated. The rat HEV positive samples were amplified by PCR for further clone sequencing, and the resulting sequences were compared with the HEV sequences registered in the GenBank and a phylogenetic tree was constructed by using MegAlign and MEGA 7.0.Results:A total of 491 murine-shaped animals were captured from 3 orders, 5 families, 8 genera, 15 species, and the positive rate of rat HEV was 4.89% (24/491). Among them, the positive rate of Rattus tanezumi and Niviventer fulvescens was 9.39% (23/245) and 1/3, respectively; and other species were negative. There was a statistically significant difference in the positive rate of rat HEV between different habitats ( P = 0.014), and the positive rate of rat HEV in the habitats near the dwellings was higher than that in other habitats ( P < 0.05). The sequence comparison analysis showed that the gene sequence of P018 from Lianghe County was 100.0% homologous to the MG813927.1 sequence of the first patient with rat HEV in Hongkong, and it was clustered into the same branch with the sequences of MG813927.1 and LC549185.1 from rat, was the type HEV C. G024 from Mangshi shared a low homology (20.7% - 31.5%) with other virus strains, and it was clustered into the same branch with a HEV sequence from an avian (AY535004.1). Conclusions:Rat HEV is prevalent in murine-shaped animals of plague foci of Yunnan Province, and there may be gene polymorphisms of rat HEV. In addition, the difference infection rate may be related to the habitats.
