The anesthetists not only pay attention to the exploitation and application of the information resource but also rely more and more on the convenience caused by the informatization. Based on HIS, LIS, and PACS, the Anesthesia information system has been constructed in order to guarantee the quality and safety of the anesthesia. The Anesthesia information system shares the information with HIS and LIS and manages the medical information such as the surgery and anesthesia closely. The paper introduces the notion of the anesthesia information system and its main function and also the predicted effect during the management of the anesthesia information system. Meanwhile, some problem about the application has been mentioned.

Objective:To provide a retrospective analysis of the levels of occupational external exposure of radiation workers in Hubei province from 2009 to 2018 in a way to prevent and control its risks.Methods:The external individual doses were surveyed for 50 070 radiation workers between 2009 and 2018 by the effort of the Hubei Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Under the relevant national standards, the external radiation doses to radiation workers were conducted by using TLDs.Results:The average annual collective effective dose to radiation workers in a 10 years period was 1.93 man·Sv, the median of average annual effective dose of 0.14 mSv ( P25- P75: 0.06-0.30 mSv), and the average annual effective dose of 0.40 mSv. The annual effective doses received by 46 562 workers were less than 1 mSv, accounting for 92.99% of the total monitored workers. The annual effective dose varied dependent on occupational categories, showing a year-by-year decline trend and staying at a low level after 2012. The relative high radiation doses were seen in nuclear medicine and interventional radiology in medical applications, non-destructive testing and well logging in industrial applications, and other types of radiation applications. Conclusions:The average annual effective dose decreased year in a by year manner and kept at a low level. This indicated that the radiological protection measures taken during the 10 years ensure the health of workers. The continuous monitoring result suggest that much more attention should be paid to such categories workers as nuclear medicine, interventional radiology, non-destructive testing, well logging and others through improving radiation protection measures.

Objective:To screen the differentially co-expressed genes in the mRNA expression profile of colon cancer by combined application of weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA) and differential gene expression analysis, and to analyze the relationship between differentially co-expressed genes and prognosis.Methods:The transcriptomics data of the cancer genome atlas (TCGA)-colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) dataset and chip expression profile data of GSE68468 dataset were downloaded from TCGA and gene expression omnibus (GEO) databases based on bioinformatics methods, and differentially expressed gene (DEG) and the most significantly related weighted gene modules between normal tissues and colon cancer tissues were screened. Then, the differentially co-expressed genes related to colon cancer were screened out according to the intersection of differential genes and weighted genes. A protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed, and the top ten core differentially co-expressed genes according to the maximal clique centrality (MCC) score were screened out by MCC calculation method. The expression of core genes in normal tissues and colon cancer tissues were further verified by TCGA-COAD dataset. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to investigate the correlation between core genes and overall survival time and disease-free survival time of patients. The survival-related differentially co-expressed genes were verified by immunohistochemical staining in human protein atlas (HPA) database.Results:A total of 3 481 DEG of the TCGA-COAD dataset and 7 275 DEG of the GSE68468 dataset were screened out, and totally 237 differentially co-expressed genes were obtained. Ten core differentially co-expressed genes were obtained by the MCC calculation method of the PPI network, which were chloride channel accessory 1 ( CLCA1), mitogen-activated protein kinase 3, glucagon ( GCG), solute carrier family 26 member 3 ( SLC26 A3), nuclear receptor subfamily 1 group H member 4 ( NR1 H4), fatty acid binding protein 1 ( FABP1), guanylate cyclase activator 2A ( GUCA2 A), uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase family 2 member A3 ( UGT2 A3), carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 ( CPT2) and membrane spanning 4-domains A12 ( MS4 A12). Compared with those of the normal tissues, CLCA1, GCG, SLC26 A3, NR1 H4, FABP1, GUCA2 A, UGT2 A3, CPT2 and MS4 A12 of colon cancer tissues of the TCGA-COAD dataset were all down-regulated (all P<0.05). Among them, the overall survival time and disease-free survival time of patients with colon cancer with high expression of CLCA1 were both longer than those with low expression (both P<0.05). The results of immunohistochemical staining also verified the accuracy of the results at the protein level. Conclusions:CLCA1 may play a key role in the development of colon cancer, and it can be used as a potential biomarker for further diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To evaluate the skin development and repair process of X-ray radiation damage in rat with non-invasive two-photon excitation fluorescence (TPEF) imaging technology in vivo. Methods:Totally 24 SD rats were randomly divided into four groups including X-ray irradiated group (25, 35 and 45 Gy) and non-irradiation control group. At different times after irradiation, the degree of skin injury was evaluated, and the pathological changes of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (phosphate) [NAD(P)H] and collagen fiber fluorescence signals in epidermal cells were detected in vivo by TPEF imaging technology. Results:At 10 d post-irradiation, the skin of irradiation groups showed erythema and desquamation. At 15-20 d post-irradiation, the skin of radiation groups developed progressive exudation, edema and ulcers with increasing radiation dose. On day 25, the skin began to repair in the 25 Gy group, however, the skin of other groups still had exudation and ulcers. On day 10, NAD(P)H fluorescence signal in epidermal cells of irradiation groups decreased and the fluorescence signal of collagen fibers in papillary layer and reticular layer of irradiation groups reduced, which were significantly lower than that of normal control group ( t=24.145, 28.303, 26.989, 6.654, 7.510, 7.997, P<0.05). On day 30, fluorescence signal of NAD(P)H and collagen fibers in epidermal cells and dermis began to repair, the cell from stratum granulosum, stratum spinosum, and stratum basale in the 25 Gy group showed fluorescence signal, the other groups did not show. The fluorescence signal of collagen fibers in the 25 Gy group were gradually increased in papillary layer and reticular layer, however, they were significantly lower than normal control group ( t=115.133, 17.431, P<0.05), the skin of 45 Gy group did not show fluorescence signal of collagen fibers. Conclusions:The damage and repair process of epidermal cells and dermal collagen fiber can be detected noninvasively by TPEF imaging technology after X-ray irradiation in vivo.

Background::Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) remains a common complication during liver transplantation (LT) in patients. As a key downstream effector of the Hippo pathway, Yes-associated protein (YAP) has been reported to be involved in various physiological and pathological processes. However, it remains elusive whether and how YAP may control autophagy activation during ischemia-reperfusion.Methods::Human liver tissues from patients who had undergone LT were obtained to evaluate the correlation between YAP and autophagy activation. Both an in vitro hepatocyte cell line and in vivo liver-specific YAP knockdown mice were used to establish the hepatic ischemia-reperfusion models to determine the role of YAP in the activation of autophagy and the mechanism of regulation. Results::Autophagy was activated in the post-perfusion liver grafts during LT in patients, and the expression of YAP positively correlated with the autophagic level of hepatocytes. Liver-specific knockdown of YAP inhibited hepatocytes autophagy upon hypoxia-reoxygenation and HIRI ( P <0.05). YAP deficiency aggravated HIRI by promoting the apoptosis of hepatocytes both in the in vitro and in vivo models ( P <0.05). Attenuated HIRI by overexpression of YAP was diminished after the inhibition of autophagy with 3-methyladenine. In addition, inhibiting autophagy activation by YAP knockdown exacerbated mitochondrial damage through increasing reactive oxygen species ( P <0.05). Moreover, the regulation of autophagy by YAP during HIRI was mediated by AP1 (c-Jun) N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling through binding to the transcriptional enhanced associate domain (TEAD). Conclusions::YAP protects against HIRI by inducing autophagy via JNK signaling that suppresses the apoptosis of hepatocytes. Targeting Hippo (YAP)-JNK-autophagy axis may provide a novel strategy for the prevention and treatment of HIRI.

Objective:To investigate the value of quantitative ultrashort-echo-time (UTE) adiabatic T 1ρ (AdiabT 1ρ) in the diagnosis of articular cartilage degeneration of knee. Methods:A prospective case-control study was used. From March 2023 to September 2024, 30 healthy volunteers and 50 patients with osteoarthritis (OA) were recruited in the Second Affiliated Hospital, South China University of Technology and the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University. The unilateral knee joints were scanned by using three-dimensional (3D) UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ sequence. The articular cartilages of knee were divided into 13 subregions slice by slice, with a total of 3 837 subregions. The whole-organ magnetic resonance-imaging score (WORMS) was evaluated in each subregion. According to the extent of lesions, the subregions cartilages were divided into normal group (WORMS 0, 2 589 subregions), localized lesion group (WORMS 1, 2, 2.5, 911 subregions) and diffuse lesion group (WORMS 3, 4, 5, 337 subregions). According to the depth of lesions, they were divided into normal group (WORMS 0, 2 589 subregions), partial cartilage layer lesions group (WORMS 1, 2, 3, 4, 1 108 subregions) and full-thickness lesion group (WORMS 2.5, 5, 140 subregions). WORMS 1 was early cartilage degeneration. The Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grade of the knee joints was assessed and divided into normal group (KL grade 0, 1 323 subregions), suspicious or mild OA group (KL grades 1 and 2, 1 738 subregions), and moderate or severe OA group (KL grades 3 and 4, 776 subregions). The UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ values and curves for each subregion were obtained by Matlab 2017b software. The ANOVA was used to compare the differences in UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ between different WORMS groups and KL groups. Spearman correlation analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ and WORMS and KL groups. The receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to determine the efficacy of UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ in diagnosing early cartilage degeneration and suspicious or mild OA. Results:Both normal volunteers and OA patients were able to obtain good cartilage images and well-fitting UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ curves. There were 2 589, 569, 277, 65, 199, 63 and 75 cartilage subregions with WORMS scores of 0, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4 and 5, respectively, and the UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ values were (36.1±5.1), (41.5±5.2), (42.3±5.3), (45.2±6.3), (43.0±5.2), (44.1±5.4) and (47.5±5.7) ms, respectively. The difference was statistically significant ( F=161.63, P<0.001). There was a statistically significant difference in UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ among normal group, localized lesion group and diffuse lesion group ( F=450.92, P<0.001), and there was a significant difference in UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ value among normal group, partial cartilage lesion group and full-thickness lesion group ( F=479.13, P<0.001). There was a statistically significant difference in UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ among the normal group, the suspected or mild OA group, and the moderate or severe OA group ( F=36.91, P<0.001). The UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ values in all subregions were positively correlated with WORMS and KL grades ( r=0.55, P<0.001; r=0.26, P<0.001). The AUC of UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ in the diagnosis of early cartilage degeneration was 0.773 (95% CI 0.750-0.796), and the AUC in the diagnosis of suspicious or mild OA was 0.580 (95% CI 0.560-0.601). Conclusion:3D UTE-Cones-AdiabT 1ρ is positively correlated with the degree of cartilage degeneration, which can quantitatively evaluate cartilage degeneration and has the value of early diagnosis of articular cartilage degeneration.

Objective:Objective To explore the clinical values of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in bacterial 16S rRNA region and fungal ITS region for diagnosing and treating urinary tract infection (UTI) in renal transplant recipients.Methods:A total of 90 mid-stream clean-catch urine samples were collected from renal transplant recipients who were diagnosed with UTI at Hospital from January 2017 to December 2019. Each sample was equally divided and tested via NGS method and traditional urine culture separately. The results of pathogen test and detection rate were analyzed and compared.Results:And 21/90 sample were considered to be contaminated due to the identification of three or more kinds of microorganisms by culture. And among the remaining 69 samples, 36 (52.17%) cases tested positive by 16S rRNA sequencing, 25 (36.23%) positive by urine bacterial culture; meanwhile, 34(49.28%) tested positive by ITS sequencing and 4(5.80%) positive by urine fungal culture.Conclusions:The detection rate of both bacteria and fungi in NGS microorganism testing is higher than that in traditional urine culture ( P< 0.05). For renal transplant recipients with UTI, NGS microorganism testing is an effective supplement for traditional urine culture. Improving the detection rate and accuracy of etiology may enable an optimization of individualized treatment.
