ObjectiveMicrotube associated protein-2 （MAP-2）， alpha-tubulin （α-tubulin）， and synaptophysin （SYP） are important proteins in neuronal signal communication. This paper observed the effects of modified Zhigancao Tang on the expression of serum α-Synuclein （α-Syn） and its oligomers， MAP-2， α-tubulin， and SYP of patients with liver and kidney deficiency of Parkinson's disease （PD）， analyzed their correlation， and evaluated the therapeutic effect of modified Zhigancao Tang in patients with liver and kidney deficiency of PD based on α-Syn transmission pathway mediated by neuronal communication in vivo. MethodsA total of 60 patients with PD who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a treatment group （30 cases） and a control group （30 cases）. Both groups were treated on the basis of PD medicine， and the treatment group was treated with modified Zhigancao Tang. Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. The changes in UPDRS score， TCM syndrome score， and expression of serum α-Syn and its oligomers， MAP-2， α-tubulin， and SYP were observed before and after 12 weeks of treatment in each group. The correlation between the above-mentioned serum biological indexes and the levels of serum α-Syn and its oligomers was analyzed. ResultsAfter treatment， the TCM syndrome score， UPDRS score， UPDRS-Ⅱ score， and UPDRS-Ⅲ score of the treatment group were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The UPDRS score， UPDRS-Ⅱ score， and UPDRS-Ⅲ scores in the treatment group were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group after treatment （P<0.05）. After treatment， the total effective rate of the control group was 63.3% （19/30）， and that of the treatment group was 86.7% （26/30）. The clinical effect of the observation group was better than the control group （Z=-2.03， P<0.05）. The total effective rate of the observation group was better than that of the control group， and the difference was statistically significant （χ²=5.136， P<0.05）. After treatment， the oligomer level of serum α-Syn and MAP-2 level in the treatment group were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The levels of serum α-Syn and its oligomers， as well as α-tubulin in the treatment group， were significantly decreased compared with those in the control group after treatment （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Serum α-Syn was correlated with serum MAP-2 and α-Syn oligomer in patients with PD （P<0.05， P<0.01） but not correlated with serum SYP . Serum α-Syn oligomers of patients with PD were correlated with serum MAP-2 and α-tubulin （P<0.05， P<0.01） but not correlated with serum SYP level. Serum SYP of patients with PD was correlated with serum MAP-2 （P<0.05）. ConclusionModified Zhigancao Tang has a therapeutic effect on patients with liver and kidney deficiency of PD by inhibiting the production of α-Syn oligomers and intervening α-Syn microtubule transport pathway in vivo.

Non-contrast enhanced MR angiography(NCE-MRA)has been widely used in clinic since advantages of non-radiation and non-contrast media.The image quality of NCE-MRA could be effectively improved using ultra-high field MR scanner,yet 7.0T devices were limited by coils and usually used for cerebrovascular scanning.The invention of 5.0T ultra-high field MR system brings new opportunities for whole body NCE-MRA.The preliminary application of 5.0T whole body NCE-MRA in human body were explored in this article.

Objective:To investigate the application value of manual anastomosis of gastro-duodenum in totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 55 patients with gastric cancer who underwent totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy combined with gastrointestinal anastomosis in the Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute & Hospital from January 2020 to October 2022 were collected. There were 34 males and 21 females, aged 61(range, 29?75)years. Of 55 patients, 25 patients undergoing manual anastomosis of gastroduodenum were divided into the manual anastomosis group, 30 patients undergoing modified Delta anastomosis of gastroduodenum were divided into the modified Delta anastomosis group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative complications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using chi-square test or Fisher exact probility. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All 55 patients underwent surgery successfully, without conversion to laparotomy. The distance from the superior margin of tumor to the upper margin, anastomosis time, number of bookings used were (48±4)mm, (22.6±2.3)minutes, 3.2±0.5 in the manual anastomosis group, versus (41±4)mm, (14.0±1.4)minutes, 5.2±0.4 in the modified Delta anastomosis group, showing significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( t=5.04, 16.38, ?17.13, P<0.05). The location of tumor (antrum, gastric angle) was 18, 7 in the manual anastomosis group, versus 29, 1 in the modified Delta anastomosis group, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( P<0.05). (2) Postoperative complications. There was no patient undergoing anastomotic fistula in both of manual anastomosis group and modified Delta anastomosis group, and there was 1 patient undergoing anastomotic stenosis in the modified Delta anastomosis group. Conclusion:Compared with modi-fied Delta anastomosis of gastroduodenum,totally laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with manual anas-tomosis of gastroduodenum can remove more gastric tissue, and decrease the number of bookings used.

OBJECTIVES: To study the effects of 17β-estradiol (E2) on the regulation of the proliferation of condylar chondrocytes and provide a preliminary discussion on the role of phosphorylate-mammalian target of rapamycin (p-mTOR) in this regulatory process. METHODS: Condylar chondrocytes were isolated from 6-week-old female rats for primary culture. Drug treatment with different concentrations of E2 and/or rapamycin (RAPA) was carried out on second-generation cells. Cell Counting Kit 8 was used to measure the cell viability of condylar chondrocytes after culture for 24, 48, or 72 h, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was applied to detect the relative gene expression of estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), estrogen receptor beta (ERβ), collagen type Ⅱ (COLⅡ), autophagy-related gene 6 (Beclin-1), and autophagy-related gene 5 (ATG-5). Western blot was employed to determine the relative protein expression of ERα, ERβ, Beclin-1, lipid-modified light chain 3B (LC3-Ⅱ), and p-mTOR. RESULTS: E2 could significantly promote the proliferation of chondrocytes cultured CONCLUSIONS At a concentration of 10

Objective:To assess antimicrobial activity of Fe 3O 4 nanozymes against Candida albicans. Methods:Fe 3O 4 nanozymes were prepared by using a modified hydrothermal synthesis method. Candida albicans suspensions were divided into 4 groups: nanozyme group treated with 0.5 g/L Fe 3O 4 nanozymes, H 2O 2 group treated with 0.1% H 2O 2, combination group treated with 0.5 g/L Fe 3O 4 nanozymes and 0.1% H 2O 2, and control group receiving no treatment. Candida albicans in the above 4 groups was all cultured with Sabouraud liquid medium, the absorbance value at 600 nm was detected every 2 hours, and the growth of Candida albicans was observed. After 2-hour treatment, the morphology of Candida albicans in the 4 groups was observed by scanning electron microscopy; after plate coating, Candida albicans was cultured at 36 ℃ for 48 hours, colonies were observed and counted, and the inhibition rate of colony formation was calculated. One-way analysis of variance was used for comparing means among several groups, and least significant difference (LSD) - t test for multiple comparisons. Results:A relatively stable survival curve of Candida albicans was observed in the control group, while the growth of Candida albicans was inhibited in the nanozyme group, H 2O 2 group and combination group. The colony count significantly differed among the control group, H 2O 2 group, nanozyme group and combination group (124 830 ± 45 170, 86 330 ± 13 960, 91 670 ± 31 370 and 30 330 ± 3010 respectively; F = 9.41, P < 0.05) , and was significantly lower in the combination group than in the control group ( t = 4.63, P < 0.05) . There was a significant difference in the colony-formation inhibition rate among the H 2O 2 group, nanozyme group and combination group (30.84% ± 5.00%, 26.57% ± 11.24%, 75.70% ± 2.42% respectively; F = 9.413, P < 0.01) , and the combination group showed a significantly higher inhibition rate compared with the H 2O 2 group and nanozyme group ( t = 8.08, 4.27 respectively, both P < 0.01) . Scanning electron microscopy showed changes in the morphology of Candida albicans treated with H 2O 2 and nanozymes alone or in combination, including shrinkage, rupture and even collapse. Conclusion:Fe 3O 4 nanozymes combined with H 2O 2 have obvious antimicrobial effect against Candida albicans.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of Kawasaki disease in infants and explore the risk factors of coronary artery abnormities in Kawasaki disease. Methods: The clinical data of 300 children with Kawasaki disease from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including laboratory tests and coronary ultrasound results.The clinical characteristics of infants with Kawasaki disease and elderly children with Kawasaki disease were compared.The risk factors of coronary artery injury in infants with Kawasaki disease were analyzed. Results: The majority of infants with Kawasaki disease were atypical Kawasaki disease, and the typical changes of conjunctival congestion, perianal changes and plaque were significantly higher than those of elderly children (P<0.01). Leukocyte count and platelet count were higher in the infant group, and the number of children with abnormal liver function was significantly higher than that in the older group (P<0.05). Coronary artery dilatation occurred in 11% of infants with Kawasaki disease, and most of them returned to normal within 3 months.Logistic model design was used to analyze the risk factors of coronary artery injury in infants with Kawasaki disease.It was found that boys and CRP increased significantly were the risk factors of coronary artery injury in infants with Kawasaki disease. Conclusion Infant Kawasaki disease has its own characteristics.The incidence of coronary artery injury is high.Timely diagnosis, differential diagnosis and symptomatic treatment may reduce the incidence of coronary artery injury.At the same time, follow-up should be maintained to monitor the changes of coronary artery by echocardiography.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognosis in ventricular noncompaction children. Methods Thirty-four cases who diagnosed with ventricular noncompaction were included in this study in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 2012 to May 2018. According to age, the children were divided into infantile type( age <1 year old) and juvenile type( age≥1 year old) . We ana-lyzed the clinical features,laboratory tests and prognosis. Results The average age at diagnosis was 3 years and 2 months. The sex ratio was 2. 4:1. Of these,32 cases were left ventricular noncompaction,1 was right ventricular noncompaction, and 1 was biventricular noncompaction. There were no statistically significant differences in family history,arrhythmia,and thrombotic events between infantile type and juvenile type. Heart failure was the first reason for most children,while older children often presented with fatigue when at diag-nosis. More than half of them showed significant left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) decreasing,and non-compacted layer to compacted layer(N/C) ratio showed negative correlation with LVEF(r= -0. 74, P<0. 001). Sixty-five percent(22/34) of the patients presented abnormal electrocardiogram. During the follow-up,one patient died of pulmonary embolism. No significant LVEF improvement was found in 35％(12/34) of the patient. The COX proportional hazards model showed that N/C ratio was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis of ventricular noncompaction(OR=14. 46,95％CI 1. 712 -120. 234,P<0. 05). Conclusion Children with ventricular noncompaction showed different clinical features and prognosis. Early diagnosis,treatment and long term follow up are key issues for the prognosis.

Objective To compare the clinical features of classic Kawasaki disease (CKD) and in-complete Kawasaki disease (IKD),and to explore the risk factors of coronary artery abnormities in Kawasaki disease. Methods We collected the clinical data of 320 children with Kawasaki disease from July 1,2017 to June 30,2018,including 244 children with CKD (CKD group) and 76 children with IKD (IKD group). The risk factors of coronary artery abnormities in children with Kawasaki disease were explored. Results In ad-dition to coronary artery injury ( 5%), some patients showed other rare complications such as cholestasis (1. 6%),intestinal obstruction(0. 6%),atlantoaxial subluxation (0. 9%),macrophage activation syndrome (0. 9%) and Kawasaki disease shock syndrome (0. 3%). The age onset in CKD group was earlier than that in IKD group. WBC, CPR, NT-proBNP in CKD group were significantly higher than those in IKD group (P<0. 05). After one week of treatment,WBC and CRP decreased significantly in group IKD,and there was no significant difference in PLT count. Multivariate logistic model was used to analyze the risk factors of cor-onary artery abnormities in Kawasaki disease. It was found that 25-OH VitD reduction ( OR ＝2. 851,P <0. 05) was a high risk factor for coronary artery injury in KD. Conclusion Kawaski disease should be diag-nosed early, treated for organ damage and supplemented with vitamin D. After discharge, coronary artery changes should be monitored regularly.
