Objective:To investigate the effect and the related mechanism of H19 on the invasion and migration ability of pancreatic cancer cells.Methods: The expression of H19 in tissues of pancreatic carcinoma and non-carcinoma adjacent tissues of pancreatic carcinoma were detected.qPCR was used to detect the expression of H19 in different pancreatic cancer cells.The migration and invasion ability of pancreatic cancer cells was detected after silencing H19 using wound healing assays and Transwell matrigel invasion assays.Dual-Luciferase Reporter Assay System was used to detect miR-107regulating H19.The expression of miR-107 in tissues of pancreatic carcinoma and non-carcinoma adjacent tissues of pancreatic carcinoma were detected.The regulation of miR-107 on the migration and invasion ability of pancreatic cancer cells were detected after silencing H19 using wound healing assays and Transwell matrigel invasion assays.Subcutaneous tumor was used to detect the size and volume of the tumor after inject the tumor cells.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of Ki67 and PCNA.Results: Compared with non-carcinoma adjacent tissues of pancreatic carcinoma,the expression of H19 of tissues of pancreatic carcinoma was significantly increased.The expression of H19 in pancreatic cancer cell A549 was highest.Silencing H19 could inhibit the migration of human pancreatic cancer A549 cells.miR-107 was the direct target of H19.Compared with non-carcinoma adjacent tissues of pancreatic carcinoma,the expression of H19 of tissues of pancreatic carcinoma was significantly decreased.After silencing H19,inhibiting the expression of miR107 could inhibit the migration of human pancreatic cancer A549 cells.Compared with the group of H19-siRNA,H19-siRNA+miR-107-inhibitor group mice tumor volume and weight were significantly bigger.Immunohistochemistry showed that compared with H19-siRNA group,the expression Ki67 and PCNA expression in H19-siRNA+miR-107-inhibitor group increased.Conclusion: H19 plays the role of tumor promotor factor in pancreatic cancer.H19 can affect the invasion and migration ability of pancreatic carcinoma cells by regulating miR-107.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of Liu Zi Jue Qigong (LQG)-based breathing training on the curvature and range of motion (ROM) of the thoracic and lumbar spines in different positions. Methods: Forty-seven college students were selected as subjects and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. In the observation group, 27 subjects received regular LQG-based breathing training for 12 weeks, while 20 subjects in the control group did not receive any intervention. The spine measuring instrument Spinal Mouse was adopted to detect the curvature and ROM of the thoracic and lumbar spines. Results: In the observation group, the changes in the curvatures of thoracic spine in the upright and forward-bending positions showed statistical significance after LQG exercise (P<0.05), while there was no notable difference in the control group. The comparison of ROM of the thoracic spine from the upright position to the forward-bending and load-bearing positions showed statistically significant difference in the observation group (P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in the control group. There was no significant difference in the lumbar curvature and ROM in the two groups after LQG exercise. Conclusion: LQG-based breathing training improves the curvature and ROM of the thoracic spine.

Objective:This study aims to explore the connotation and importance of clinical research infrastructure, elucidate the key points and operational models of clinical research wards, and summarize the experiences and practices of clinical research wards at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.Methods:The study employed on-site investigations and literature reviews to analyze the construction models and key features of clinical research wards in various medical institutions.Results:Additionally, it introduced advanced experiences from foreign centers and examined the challenges encountered during the process.Conclusions:As a phased achievement, it presents the experience and practices of Peking Union Medical College Hospital in constructing and operating clinical research wards based on National Facility for Translational Medicine (PUMCH). The construction of clinical research facilities and clinical research wards should focus on facility positioning, talent pool, financial investment, management operation, and information systems. This study provides references for the future construction, operation, and development of clinical research facilities.

Objective:To explore the incidence and factors of the influence of preoperative related factors on postoperative orthopedic evaluation, through the evaluation of thoracic shape orthopedic evaluation of children pectus excavatum, during plate implantation after Nuss procedure.Methods:From April 2012 to April 2019, the clinical data were analyzed retrospectively for 159 hospitalized cases of Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum in Xi’an Children’s Hospital.The mean age was(6.8±3.4) years old(3.2-17.0 years old); males 124, females 35; Haller index 4.0±1.0(2.7-7.5); 6 cases(4%) were poor orthopedic evaluation with the thoracic shape, males 5, femal 1; 23 cases (14%) were average satisfied with the thoracic shape, males 16, femals 7; 130 cases (82%)were good orthopedic evaluation with the thoracic, males 103, femals 27. Follow-ups were conducted for at least 2 years, Retrospective analysis of the relationship between postoperative thoracic satisfaction and age, gender, Haller index, how the plates were placed during surgery and symmetry of funnel chest, t test and χ2 test were used for statistical analysis. Results:There were statistically significant differences between thoracic orthopedic evaluation after postoperative and classification of pectus excavatum ( P=0.001), and poor orthopedic evaluation after asymmetric pectus excavatum operationand ; There were no significant differences in gender, Haller index, surgical method and how the plates were placed during surgery( P>0.05). However, it can be seen from the mean and percentage that with the decrease of age, and the increase of Haller index, the orthopedic evaluation gradually becomes worse. Conclusion:According to our single-center study, asymmetric pectus excavatum is a factor for poor orthopedic evaluation during plate implantation after Nuss, especially for young children and children with larger Haller index.
