Objective To investigate the effects of targeted silencing of CXCL5 on the related biological functions of laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma(LSCC)cell line AMC-HN-8,and analyze the regulation through TCGA database.Methods RNA-seq data related to LSCC were obtained from TCGA database,and the expression differences of CXCL5 gene in LSCC and the adjacent tissues were analyzed. Total 60 samples of LSCC and the adjacent tissues from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected from the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University,and the expression of CXCL5 protein in LSCC tissues was detected by immunohistochemical staining. Human LSCC cell line AMC-HN-8 was cultured and the mRNA transcription level of CXCL5 in AMC-HN-8 cells was detected by qPCR. Two groups of SiRNA with high knock-down efficiency were screened,CCK8 assay was used to detect the cell proliferation,Transwell test was used to measure the cell invasion and migration,and flow cytometry was used to detect the cell cycle and apoptosis. The correlation between CXCL5and tumor immune invasion level of LSCC was analyzed by ssGSEA,and CXCL5 co-expression gene network was constructed and analyzed for GO and KEGG enrichment.Results Compared with the adjacent tissues and the cells in control group,the expression of CXCL5 in LSCC tissues and cells increased,which was consistent with the analysis of TCGA database;Inhibition of CXCL5 expression in AMC-HN-8 cells inhibited the proliferation,invasion and migration of tumor cells,and promoted the apoptosis through inhibiting the cell cycle in G1 phase;The immune cell scores in DC,neutrophils,NK and TH17 cells were different.Conclusion CXCL5gene is highly expressed in LSCC tissues,which might be one of the targets of LSCC targeted therapy.

Objective To provide anatomic evidence for the application of the lateral thigh perforator flap.Methods Dissected five fresh Chinese adult lower limbs specimens which were injected with red latex via arterial cannula.On the lateral area of middle and distal thigh,obseved the number,distribution,course,category,length of pedicle and external diameter of the flaps' perforators on specimens.Results On the lateral area of middle and distal thigh 19 perforator arteris were observed in these specimens,averagely there were (3.8 ± 1.3) cutaneous perforators in each flap.Perforators mainly origined from the third perforator artery of profunda femoris,secondly from the second,fourth perforator artery and superior lateral genicular artery.Cutaneous perforators of the third perforator artery of profunda femoris pierced the flap on (13.8 ± 1.5) cm proximal of the fibulae capitulum,while the cutaneous perforators of superior lateral genicular artery on (8.6 ± 1.3) cm proximal of the fibulae capitulum.Averagely internal diameter of cutaneous perforators was (0.7 ± 0.2) mm at the point where the perforators pierced deep fascia.The diameter of the profunda femoris was (1.9 ± 0.2) mm,and the pedicle length was (12.2 ± 0.6)cm.The diameter of superior lateral genicular artery was (1.5 ± 0.2)mm,and the pedicle length was (6.8 ± 1.1) cm.There were inosculated branch in these perforators which came from profunda femoris and superior lateral genicular artery.Conclusion The anatomic characteristic allowed this flap would likely be clinically useful in repairing soft tissue defects in extremity limbs as a free or pedicled flap,which the cutaneous perforators invariably appeared on the skin of lateral areat of middle and distal thigh ; the flap could obtain enough length of the pedicle from its origination ; the vessel has large caliber supporting a substantial cutaneous territory.

Objective To detect the expression of DBC2 and the methylation status of its gene promoter region in gastric cancer,so as to analyze their correlation. Methods Gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues were collected from 92 cases as research subjects. The DBC2 mRNA expression and the methylation status of DBC2 gene promoter region in gastric cancer were detected by using RT?PCR and MS?PCR respectively. In addition,the correlation of DBC2 gene methylation status with clinicopathological parameters was analyzed. Results In comparison with adjacent normal tissues,gastric cancer tissues displayed a low expression level of DBC2mRNA and a high methylation level of gene promoter region. Besides, the methylation level was significantly correlated with tumor invasion depth,differentiation and TNM staging(P<0.05). With deep invasion,poor differentiation or higher TNM staging,methylation level of gene promoter region was more significant in gastric cancer tissues. Conclusion High methylation of DBC2 gene promoter region may be a significant contributing factor leading to low DBC2 expression.

Objective To explore the effect of follow-up continuous nursing intervention on the psychological quality and medication compliance in patients with ulcerative colitis after discharge. Methods Ninety-seven patients with ulcerative colitis after discharge from October 2014 to October 2015 were recruited,and 48 cases were selected in the study group and 49 cases in the control group randomly. The control group received routine postdischarge care. The study group received postdischarge follow-up nursing intervention. After 3 months of postdischarge intervention, the psychological quality of patients in two groups was assessed by the emotion application measure scale separately. The Morisky Medication Adherence Scale 8-item version (MMAS 8-item version) was used for the assessment of the medication compliance of the two groups of patients. Results After the intervention, the patients in the study group showed better psychological quality and medication compliance than the patients in the control groups.There were significant differences between two groups. Conclusion Post-discharge follow-up nursing intervention on patients with ulcerative colitis is effective for improving the psychological quality and the medication compliance and may be helpful to improve the life quality of the patients.

OBJECTIVE:To compare clinical efficacy of Xiaoshi lidan capsules and Ursodeoxycholic acid capsules in the treat-ment of chronic cholesterol gallstone cholecystitis. METHODS:120 patients with chronic cholesterol gallstone cholecystitis in our hospital were selected and divided into observation group and control group according to random number table,with 60 cases in each group. Observation group was given Xiaoshi lidan capsules 1.2 g,po,tid(after the meal);control group was given Ursodeoxycholic acid capsules 250 mg,po,qd(after dinner). Both group received treatment for 6 months. Effective rate of litholysis were observed in 2 groups as well as abdominal pain score [PRI,VAS score,present pain intensity(PPI)],the thickness of gallbladder wall before and after treatment. Clinical efficacy and the occurrence of ADR were compared between 2 groups during treatment. RESULTS:3 pa-tients withdrew from the observation group and 1 patient withdrew from the control group. Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in PRI,VAS score,PPI and the thickness of gallbladder wall between 2 groups(P>0.05). After treatment,above index-es of 2 groups were decreased significantly,while PRI,VAS score and PPI in observation group was significantly lower than in con-trol group,with statistical significance (P<0.05). The effective rate of litholysis (64.91%) in observation group was significantly lower than in control group (79.67%),with statistical significance (P<0.05). Total effective rate of observation group (57.89%) was slightly higher than that of control group(54.24%),without statistical significance(P>0.05). There was no statistical signifi-cance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Xiaoshi lidan capsules are similar to Ursodeoxycholic acid capsules in clinical efficacy for chronic cholesterol gallstone cholecystitis with good safety,and can be used as optional drug ex-cept for chronic cholesterol gallstone cholecystitis.

ObjectiveTo probe the feasibility and therapeutic effect of the lateral thigh perforator flap for repairing soft tissue defects in extremity limbs.MethodsDissected six fresh Chinese adult lower limbs specimens which were injected with red latex via arterial cannula. Obseved the number, distribution,course, category of the flaps'perforators and measured their length of pedicle, external diameter on the specimens.Combinafing the results of the anatomy study,thirteen lateral thigh perforator flaps,whose size were 3.0 cm × 3.0 cm - 19.0 cm× 8.0 cm, were applyied to repair different defect, in which 1 was pedieled flap and 12 were free flaps.Two of them applied vessel anastomosis in series with anterlateral thigh perforator flap. The axis was from the fibulae capitulum to greater trochanter of femur.ResultsAll 13 flaps surived com-pletely.In 3-6 months follow-up,all flaps were with thin and good appearance,and they were characterized by soft texture and good colour.No chimatlon and ulcer appeared in any flap.There were no effect of motor function in donor site because of muscle conglutination and scar contracture. There were plainness figure in donor site where skin- grafing was used, and only linearity scar remained where sewed directly.ConclusionThe lateral thigh flap had provided with thin and pleasing appearance, soft texture and minor morbidity in donor site and correspondingly easy dissection. It was feasiblely to repair middling to little skin and soft tissue defect in extremity limbs as a free flap, and to repair skin and soft tissue defect in knee and popliteal space as a pedicel flap.It could apply vessel anastomosis in series with anterlateral thigh perforator flap for repairing large defect.

Background Conventional studies showed that the primary pathological change of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is retinal microangiopathy.However,recent studies found that the disorder of visual function appears prior to retinal microangiopathy in diabetic patients.Thereby,this findings can not be explained by conventional view.Objective The aim of the study was to find the change of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) by frequency domain optical coherence tomography(OCT) in the diabetic patients without retinal microangiopathy and with non-proliferative DR (NPDR) and investigate the relationship between the change of RNFL thickness and DR.Methods Sixty eyes of 56 patients with 2 type diabetes mellitus were enrolled in Shanxi Eye Hospital from October 2012 to September 2013.The patients were divided into the non-diabetic retinopathy (NDR) group (30 eyes of 26 patients) and NPDR group (30 eyes of 30 patients) depending on the findings of fundus fluorescine angiography (FFA) according to the DR International Clinical Classification System.Thirty normal eyes of 30 age-and gendermatched healthy volunteers were included as controls.RNFL thicknesses around optical disc and macular zone were measured by OCT,including average RNFL thickness in 360°,superior nasal,superior temporal,temporal,inferior temporal,inferior nasal and nasal RNFL thicknesses.The measuring results were compared between the three groups.Results The total average thickness values of RNFL around the optic disc for the NDR group,NPDR group and the control group were (97.46-± 8.65) μm,(100.69 ± 16.35) pm and (109.22 ± 8.69) μm,respectively,and the parameters in the NDR group and NPDR group were significantly lower than those in the normal control group (P=0.001,0.006).The RNFL thicknesses were thinning at the superior temporal,temporal,inferior temporal,inferior nasal quadrants around optical disc in NDR group compared with the normal control group (P=0.001,0.001,0.001,0.010),and RNFL thickness values of all the quadrants were decresed in the NPDR group compared with the normal control group,and significant differences were seen in superior temporal and nasal quadrants (P =0.001,0.046).The total average thickness values of RNFL around macular zone for the NDR group,NPDR group and the normal control group were (33.47±3.39),(36.81±3.21) and (38.18±2.16) μm,and parameters in the NDR group was significantly lower than that in the normal control group (P =0.001).The RNFL thicknesses of all the quadrants around macular zone in the NDR group were thinned in comparison with the normal control group (all at P＜0.01),and the RNFL thicknesses at the superior nasal,superior temporal and temporal quadrants were significantly decreased in comparison with the normal control group (P=0.026,0.015,0.001).Conclusions The thinning of the RNFL thickness occurs prior to retinal microangiopathy in diabetic patients,and it may be an early pathological stage for DR.

Objective To explore the efficacy of endoscopic sphincterotomy with small incision combined with balloon dilatation (sEST+EPBD)in the treatment of patients with choledocholithiasis and juxtapapillary duodenal diverticula (JPDD).Methods From January 2011 to January 2015 ,149 patients with choledocholithiasis and JPDD who underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP)were enrolled.Among them,60 patients were in sEST+EPBD group and 89 were in endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST)group.Success rate of ERCP and first-time stone removal,changes of total bilirubin (TBil)and direct bilirubin (DBil)levels,as well as the incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups were compared.Chi-square test or t-test was performed for statistical analysis. Results The ERCP success rate sEST+EPBD group was 100.0% (60/60),and the first-time success rate of stone removal was 91 .7%(55/60);correspondingly,ERCP success rate of EST group was 98.9%(88/89),and the success rate of first-time stone removal was 77.5 %(69/89).There was no statistically significant difference in success rate of ERCP between the two groups (χ2 =0.19,P =0.410).The first-time success rate of stone removal of sEST +EPBD group was higher than that of EST group,and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =5 .53,P =0.020).After operation,the TBil level of sEST+
EPBD group was (152.62 ±109.04 )μmol/L,which was lower than that before operation ((266.02 ± 143.31)μmol/L),and the difference was statistically significant (t =4.88,P <0.01 ).After operation, the DBil level of sEST +EPBD group was (87.13 ±65 .90)μmol/L,which was lower than that before operation ((175 .70 ± 100.53 )μmol/L),and the difference was statistically significant (t = 5 .71 ,P <0.01).After operation,the TBil level of EST group was (251 .90 ±247.90)μmol/L,which was lower than that before operation ((340.20 ±176.20 )μmol/L),and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.74,P <0.05).After operation,the DBil level of EST group was (168.10±140.60)μmol/L,which was lower than that before operation ((228.40 ±139.60 )μmol/L),and the difference was statistically significant (t = 2.87,P = 0.005).The complication rate of sEST + EPBD group after operation was 8.3%(5/60),which was lower than that of EST group (20.2%,18/89 ),and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 =3.88,P =0.049 ).Conclusion sEST+EPBD could increase the first-time success rate of stone removal in patients with choledocholithiasis and JPDD,and it is a safe and effective treatment.
