Objective:To investigate the effect of smart air cell mattresses on sleep quality.Methods:Twenty healthy young people were enrolled as subjects, and each subject underwent a four-night polysomnographic monitoring experiment, including two nights each on a smart air cell mattress and a general mattress. The differences in sleep quality were compared by self-assessment of sleep quality, objective sleep indicators, and electroencephalogram (EEG) spectral analysis.Results:In the comparison between the smart air cell mattress and the general mattress, the differences in self-assessment of sleep quality and objective sleep indicators were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05), but the smart air cell mattress had a slight overall advantage. The relative power of EEG in the low-frequency band and the relative power of EEG in the high-frequency band were higher in the subjects with the smart air cell mattress. Conclusions:For the healthy young population, the smart air cell mattress can positively influence sleep quality to some extent, and the change in EEG relative power indicates an increase in sleep depth.

Objective:To investigate the role of Caspase-1/gasdermin D (GSDMD) -mediated cell pyroptosis in anti-tumor effect of cisplatin (DDP) in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) .Methods:HE staining and immunohistochemical staining were performed to detect the morphological changes and the expression of pyroptosis/apoptosis pathway related proteins in TNBC tissues before and after DDP-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) . The TNBC cell line MDA-MB-231 was treated with DDP and the morphological changes were observed. The type of cell death induced by DDP was analyzed by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining and flow cytometry. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release assay and ELISA were performed to detect the release of LDH and inflammatory factors (IL-18 and IL-1β) in cell culture supernatant after DDP treatment. Western blot (WB) was performed to detect the expression of pyroptosis/apoptosis pathway related proteins in cells after DDP treatment. MDA-MB-231 cells treated with DDP were co-treated with caspase-1 specific inhibitor to inhibit pyroptois or co-treated with caspase-3 specific inhibitor to inhibit apoptosis. The effect of caspase-1 inhibitor or caspase-3 inhibitor on the anti-tumor effect of DDP was detected by MTT assay, clone formation assay, transwell assay and would healing test.Results:Reactive changes in the breast surgical specimen after DDP-based NACT included cell swelling and inflammatory cell aggregation around the tumor bed, which were more similar to pyroptosis. The up-regulation of key molecules of pyroptosis pathway post-NACT was significantly higher than that of key molecules of apoptosis pathway. Further experiments in vitro showed that DDP could induce MDA-MB-231 cells to show pyroptosis-like changes characterized by large bubbles blowing from the cellular membrane. Flow-cytometry analyses showed that the death type of MDA-MB-231 cells caused by DDP was mainly Annexin V +PI + cells (mainly lytic cells, such as pyroptosis) . Additionally, DDP treatment induced significant activation of caspase-1 and GSDMD, increased the release of LDH, IL-18 and IL-1β, however, the activation level of caspase-3, which dominates the apoptosis pathway, was significantly lower than that of caspase-1/GSDMD. Moreover, caspase-1 inhibitors (blocking the classical pyroptosis pathway) had a significantly greater inhibitory effect on the anti-tumor effect of DDP than caspase-3 inhibitors (blocking the apoptosis pathway) . Conclusion:Caspase-1/GSDMD mediated pyroptosis may play a leading role in the anti-tumor effect of DDP in triple-negative breast cancer.

Objective To compare the effects between the dual-cycle intensive training mode (DCITM) of "teaching-in vitro-in vivo-summary-in vitro-in vivo-assessment" and the single-cycle basic training mode (BTM) of "teaching-in vitro-tn vivo-assessment" on training graduate students majoring in cardiovascular surgery.Methods Eight graduate students majoring in cardiovascular surgery received the basic training of coronary artery bypass vascular anastomosis under the mode of BTM or DCITM.Then the training effects were evaluated by scoring of experts.Besides,SPSS 17.0 statistical software was used to analyze the evaluation results.Results Compared with students who received BTM,the postgraduates trained by DCITM became more skilled in vascular anastomosis.In vitro,the average number of anastomosis completed by trainee increased significantly [(2.0 ± 1.0) vs.(5.0 ± 1.5),P＜0.05] over a specified period of time,the vascular leakage rate was significantly reduced [(92 ± 5)％ vs.(30 ± 2)％,P＜0.05],and the average time per anastomosis was significantly shorter [in vitro:(20.1 ± 2.5) min vs.(12.6 ± 3.3) min,P＜0.05].There was also a statistically significant difference in the average time of each anastomosis in miniature pigs with coronary vascular anastomosis [in vivo:(30 ± 2) min vs.(21 ± 3) min,P＜0.05].Conclusion Taken into together,DCITM is a highly efficient mode for promoting the quality of cardiovascular-surgery-teaching and enhancing the effectiveness of training in clinical surgical skills.

Objective: To explore the relationship between HCM pathogenic gene mutations and clinical phenotypes by analyzing the prenatal diagnosis and genetic characteristics of a pregnant woman from a family with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods: The clinical data of the proband and her family members was collected. The DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood, amniotic fluid cells and cultured amniotic fluid cells of proband. Next generation sequencing (NGS) was utilized for screening pathogenetic loci of the proband. The suspected mutation sequences of HCM pathogenic candidate genes MYH7 and MYBPC3 were directly sequenced after PCR. Pathogenicity prediction of amniotic fluid cells was performed by using genetic data and bioinformatics software, such as Mutation taster, PolyPhen-2 and ANTHEPROT. Results: The sequencing results showed that heterozygous mutations of MYH7 c.1988G＞A (p.Arg663His) and MYBPC3 c.151G＞A (p.Ala51Thr) were found in the proband. The phenotype of her father was normal, and no abnormal mutations were detectable. Her mother also showed normal phenotype but carried MYBPC3 c.151G＞A heterozygous mutation. Only MYH7 c.1988G＞A heterozygous mutation was found in the fetus and no abnormal variation of MYBPC3 was showed. The prediction of mutation effect and analysis of protein structure and function revealed that the two missense mutations could affect the hydrophobicity and antigenicity of the protein. The genetic data demonstrated MYH7 c.1988G＞A was defined as a pathogenic mutation. Conclusion MYH7 c.1988G＞A should be a newly generated pathogenic mutation in the proband, or caused by reproductive chimerism of her parents. MYBPC3 c.151G＞A mutation may promote the occurrence of HCM. Although the fetus only carries MYH7 c.1988G＞A, her phenotype may still display as HCM.

Objective     To summarize the clinical experience of cardiac surgery during pregnancy in a single center for the past 11 years. Methods    The clinical data of 26 pregnant patients (mean age 28.6±4.9 years) complicated with heart diseases who underwent non-emergency cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass from 2010 to 2020 in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups according to the gestational age at the time of surgery: a change group (gestational age<21 weeks) and a stable group (gestational age≥ 21 weeks). The hospitalization data and follow-up data of the patients were collected. Results    Mean gestational age at surgery was 23.4±4.2 weeks. Eleven patients had congenital heart diseases and fifteen had valvular heart diseases. Mean postoperative ICU stay was 2.5±2.4 d, and mean total hospital stay was 22.5±9.5 d. There were 5 postoperative fetal losses. There was no maternal death during follow-up. No statistical difference in the maternal postoperative outcomes between two groups. Conclusion    The number of patients undergoing cardiac surgery during pregnancy is increasing. The maternal mortality rate is low and the prognosis is good, but the fetal loss remains concern. Cardiac surgery performed before or after the establishment of cardiopulmonary adjustment in pregnancy does not change the maternal postoperative outcomes.
