Astract:Objective To assess the anatomical and functional significance of the bladder and urethra in female SUI by dynamic MRI and urodynamic. Methods The clinical data were retrospectively analysed on 60 cases of female stress urinary incontinence from Feb 2011 to Nov 2013. All the women received pelvic floor dynamic MRI and Urodynamic study. Measured the urethral angle,the distance of the H line, M line and the descent of the bladder,cervical,anorectal junction from the PCL in the mid-sagittal dynamic MR image of the pelvic. Pearson 's correlation coefficient was used to examine the association among the distance of the H line,M line and the urethral angle,the descent of the bladder,cervical,anorectal junction from the PCL and the Urodynamic data. Results The distance of the H line,M line were significantly and positively associated with urethral angle and the descent of the bladder,cervical,anorectal junction from the PCL. The distance of the H line,M line were significantly and negatively associated with functional profile length, maximum urethral closure pressure,VLPP and detrusor opening pressure. Conclusion Pelvic floor dynamic MRI combined with Urodynamic study is useful for assessing the anatomical and func-tional significance of the bladder and urethra in female SUI.

Objective:To investigate the expression of SHIP1 in the patients with acute myeloid leukemia and its effect on the apoptosis of human leukemia cells.Methods:The expression of SHIP1 in the bone marrow of patients with acute myeloid leukemia was detected by Westem blot.U937 cells was transfected with SHIP1 expression vector (pEGFP-SHIP1 group) and empty vector control (pEGFP group) respectively,U937 cells without transfection were used as the control group.Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of the cells,the expression of SHIP1,Bcl-2,Bax,Akt,p-Akt were detected by western blot.Results:The expression of SHIP1 in the bone marrow of patients with acute myeloid leukemia was significantly lower than that of the normal human bone marrow SHIP 1 (P＜0.01).The SHIP1 and Bax expressions as well as the apoptotic rate ofpEGFP-SHIP1 group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.01),while the Bcl-2 and p-Akt expressions were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusions:SH-P1 expression was down regulated in the bone marrow of patients with acute myeloid leukemia.SHIP1 could promote the apoptosis of human leukemia cells via Akt signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of implementation of standardized enteral nutrition (EN) and its effects on prognosis in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) undergoing mechanical ventilation (MV). Methods Eighty-eight patients with sTBI undergoing MV admitted to the Department of Critical Care Medicine of Yuyao People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2017 were enrolled, they were divided into a control group (42 cases) and an experiment group (46 cases) depending on the demarcation timing of January 1, 2017, the beginning time of implementing standardized EN. All the patients received early EN and conventional treatment in the two groups. Additionally, the procedure of standardized EN was implemented in the experiment group. The differences in starting time of EN, the first defecation time, the rates of EN therapeutic energy and protein supply reaching their respective targets, duration of MV and ICU stay and 28-day mortality were compared between the two groups. Results The starting time of EN (hours: 25.61±8.74 vs. 32.79±8.63) and first defecation time (days: 3.03±0.79 vs. 3.61±0.89) were significantly earlier in the experiment group than those in the control group (both P < 0.05); the rates of energy and protein supply reaching the respective targets on the 5th day and 7th day after receiving EN were all significantly higher in the experiment group than those in the control group [rates of energy supply reaching target on the 5th day: (44.83±13.99)% vs. 37.59±10.88, and on the 7th day: (68.07±10.68)% vs. (62.69±9.87)%; rate of protein supply reaching target on the 5th day: (31.93±9.49)% vs. (27.06±8.08)%, and on the 7th day: (62.09±9.91)% vs. (54.55±11.27) %, all P < 0.05]; the durations of MV (hours: 9.24±2.91 vs. 10.67±3.41) and ICU stay (days: 12.09±3.37 vs. 13.93±4.98) in the experiment group were significantly shorter than those in the control group (all P < 0.05). No statistical significant difference in the 28-day mortality was observed between the experiment group and control group [21.74% (10/46) vs. 19.05% (8/42), P > 0.05]. Conclusion The efficacy of implementation of standardized EN in patients with sTBI undergoing MV is very significant, as it can significantly improve the rate of reaching EN target, and shorten the duration of MV and ICU stay.

Objective To investigate the expression of miR-372 in the plasma of patients with acute my-eloid leukemia(AML)and the possible mechanism to participate in the development of AML. Methods Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the level of miR-372 in plasma. Bioinformatics software predicted the pos-sible target genes of miR-372 and dual luciferase reporter assay was performed to validate the prediction. In HL-60 cells,miR-372 was knocked down,and the effects on cell migration and cloning were detected by scratch test and clone formation. Results The level of miR-372 was significantly up-regulated in the plasma of AML patients. ROC analysis showed that miR-372 could distinguish between AML patients and healthy controls. Dual luciferase report-er assay showed that miR-372 could inhibit the activity of PTEN-3'UTR. Inhibition of miR-372 in HL-60 cells can significantly reduce the cell migration rate and clone formation ability. Conclusion In summary,for the first time,we showed novel data that the level of miR-372 was increased in the plasma of AML patients. By targeting the tumor suppressor gene PTEN,miR-372 may become a potential noninvasive biomarker for the screening and di-agnosis of AML.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of a new ultrasonic parameter to assess right ventricular-pulmonary artery (RV-PA) coupling in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (APE).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 140 patients with APE diagnosed by computed tomography pulmonary angiography (CTPA) in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from August 2017 to June 2020. According to the tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion/pulmonary arterial systolic pressure (TAPSE/PASP) ratio cutoff value 0.40 mm/mmHg reported by the European Society of Cardiology in 2020, the patients were divided into the coupling group ( n=99) and the uncoupling group ( n=41). The conventional ultrasonic parameters of the 2 groups were measured, and then several ultrasonic parameter ratios were obtained. The new ultrasonic parameter, which can replace the TAPSE/PASP ratio, was screened out by Spearman correlation analysis, and ROC curve was plotted to calculate the diagnostic efficacy of this parameter. Results:①Compared with the coupling group, patients in the uncoupling group were older and more likely to be accompanied by dyspnea and venous thrombosis in the lower extremities (all P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in other general data(all P>0.05); ②Compared with the coupling group, tricuspid regurgitation velocity (TRV), tricuspid regurgitation pressure gradient(TRPG), PASP, right ventricle end-diastolic transverse diameter(RVTD), inferior vena cava(IVC) diameter and the ratio of early diastolic tricuspid inflow to tricuspid lateral annular velocity(E/e′), in the uncoupling group increased significantly (all P<0.05), and TAPSE, peak systolic velocity of tricuspid annulus(s′), TAPSE/PASP ratio, TAPSE/TRPG ratio, TAPSE/RVTD ratio and s′/TRPG ratio decreased significantly (all P<0.05); ③The TAPSE/TRPG ratio was highly correlated with TAPSE/PASP ratio ( rs=0.970, P<0.001); The TAPSE/TRPG ratio was still highly correlated with TAPSE/PASP ratio in the uncoupling and coupling groups ( rs=0.966, 0.922; all P<0.001). ④ROC analysis showed that the area under curve for TAPSE/TRPG in diagnosing RV-PA coupling was 0.992. At the cutoff of TAPSE/TRPG <0.625 mm/mmHg for indicating RV-PA coupling, the sensitivity and specificity were 97.6% and 92.9%, respectively. Conclusions:TAPSE/TRPG ratio can be used as a new ultrasonic parameter to reflect RV-PA coupling, which is helpful for clinical identification of APE patients with high risk and poor prognosis.
