Objective To explore the mechanism of the cell-cycle arrest induced by human melanoma differentiation associated gene-7 (mda-7/IL-24) in chronic myelocytic leukemia cell line K562. Methods Microarray analysis was performed to determine the genes that were differentially regulated by mda-7/IL-24 in K562 cells, and was validated by realtime PCR. The phosphorylated pRb were detected by Western blotting analysis. Results A microarray analysis showed that G_0/G_1 phase-associated genes p21~(WAF-1) and BCCIP were up-egulated, while cdk6 and Smurf2 were down-regulated. The directional change in the expression of the four genes was successfully validated with real-time quantitative RT-PCR. pRb Set~(795) phosphorylation was observed with no modification of the pRb protein level. Conclusion These results suggest that IL-24/mda-7 may inhibit K562 proliferation and induce G_0/G_1 cell cycle angst by up-regulating p21~(WAF-1) and BCCIP, down-regulating cdk6 and Smurf2.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and feasibility of endovascular recanalization for non-acute internal carotid artery occlusion (NA-ICAO), and to propose a new angiographic classification.Methods:From April 2015 to October 2019, 95 consecutive patients with symptomatic NA-ICAO who received endovascular recanalization were retrospectively analyzed in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University. All the patients were divided into four groups according to DSA: type Ⅰ, petrous segments were distally reconstituted by collateral vessels; type Ⅱ, cavernous segments were distally reconstituted by collateral vessels; type Ⅲ, ophthalmic segments were distally reconstituted by collateral vessels; type Ⅳ, communicating segments were distally reconstituted by collateral vessels. Study data including clinical characteristics, surgical details, lesion classification, recanalization rate and perioperative complications. For the counting data, the χ 2 test was used to compare between groups. For the quantitative data, the ANOVA was used for the normal distribution data, otherwise the Kruskal-Wallis H test was used. The primary safety outcome was any stroke or death within 30 days. Results:Among the 95 patients, 67 (70.53%) had successful recanalization. The recanalization rates of type Ⅰ-Ⅳ were 92.31% (36/39), 81.82% (18/22), 47.83% (11/23) and 18.18% (2/11) respectively (χ2=29.557, P<0.001). And the complication rates of the four types were 5.13% (2/39), 13.64% (3/22), 21.74% (5/23) and 9.10% (1/11) respectively. The incidence of perioperative ischemic stroke was 2.11% (2/95). No other serious stroke and death occurred. Conclusions:Endovascular recanalization may be feasible and safe for carefully selected patients with NA-ICAO and therefore represents an alternative treatment. The patients with type Ⅰ and Ⅱ lesions had higher recanalization rates, while the patients with type Ⅳ lesions had significantly lower recalculation rate. The new angiographic classification is conducive to the selection of suitable patients and difficulty in grading.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of Qishi Tongguan Prescription on pregnancy outcomes after interventional recanalisation in patients with tubal infertility (TFI).Methods:This was a retrospective study based on real-world and propensity score matching. Totally 260 patients with TFI from January 2020 to October 2021 in Shuguang Hospital of Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine and Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Pudong New Area were selected as observation subjects, and were divided into 123 cases in the TCM combination group and 137 cases in the control group based on whether they were treated with Qishi Tongguan Prescription in combination with interventional revascularization. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used as a covariate to obtain a new sample of inter group covariate equilibrium, and confounding factors that may affect the pregnancy outcome of TFI patients undergoing interventional recanalization surgery were used as covariates. The intrauterine pregnancy rate, ectopic pregnancy rate, biochemical pregnancy rate, early abortion rate and adverse reactions of the two groups of patients within 12 months of follow-up were compared, and the influence of TFI intervention and recanalization combined with Qishi Tongguan Prescription on intrauterine pregnancy rate was evaluated.Results:Age, years of infertility, type of infertility, history of miscarriage, history of ectopic pregnancy, history of biochemical pregnancy, history of uterine surgery, history of pelvic laparotomy, and degree of tubal patency had an effect on whether intrauterine pregnancy was achieved after interventional reversal in patients with TFI ( P<0.05), with age [ OR (95% CI) was 0.843 (0.769, 0.926)], history of pelvic laparotomy [ OR (95% CI) was 0.477 (0.248, 0.920)] and the degree of tubal obstruction [ OR (95% CI) was 0.152 (0.046, 0.500)] were independent factors ( P<0.01 or P<0.05). 81 patients were seen in each of the 2 groups after PSM, of whom the intrauterine pregnancy rates in the combined herbal group at 9 and 12 months after recanalisation were 48.1% (39/81) and 58.0% (47/81) respectively, compared with 32.1% (26/81) and 35.8% (29/81) in the control group, with statistical significance between the 2 groups ( χ2 values of 4.34 and 8.03, respectively, P<0.01); there was no statistical significance in the ectopic pregnancy rate, biochemical pregnancy rate and early abortion rate between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). There were no significant adverse reactions during the treatment. Conclusion:Qishi Tongguan Prescription combined with interventional recanalization can effectively improve the intrauterine pregnancy rate and shorten the waiting time for pregnancy in patients with TFI with higher safety.

Objective:To investigate the status of vertebral compression fracture (VCF) in elderly patients with osteoporosis and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A total of 222 elderly patients with osteoporosis admitted to Department of Spinal Surgery in Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from March 2019 to March 2023 were selected as the research objects by the convenient sampling method, and clinical data of the patients were collected. Patients were divided into VCF group ( n=98) and non-VCF group ( n=124) based on whether or not VCF occurred. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of VCF in elderly patients with osteoporosis. Results:The incidence of VCF in 222 elderly patients with osteoporosis was 44.1% (98/222). The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that a history of falls ( OR=2.968, 95% CI: 1.154-7.736, P=0.024), no history of osteoporosis drug treatment ( OR=4.707, 95% CI: 1.525-14.531, P=0.007), body mass index>24.0 kg/m 2 ( OR=4.586, 95% CI: 2.071-10.158, P<0.001), lower bone density T values ( OR=3.221, 95% CI: 2.194-4.731, P<0.001) and low albumin ( OR=0.828, 95% CI: 0.752-0.913, P<0.001) were risk factors for VCF in elderly patients with osteoporosis. Conclusions:The incidence of vertebral compression fracture is high in elderly patients with osteoporosis, among which a history of falls, no history of osteoporosis drug treatment, body mass index greater than 24 kg/m 2, lower bone density T-values and low albumin are the main influencing factors that affect the occurrence of vertebral compression fracture in elderly patients with osteoporosis. Clinical medical staff should pay attention to these risk factors, identify the risk of fractures in elderly patients early and take targeted intervention measures.

Objective:To analyze the effect of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy in patients with acute respiratory failure, and investigate the indicators that predict the failure of HFNC.Methods:The clinical data of 174 patients with acute respiratory failure were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were treated with HFNC in the Emergency Department of Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2018 to September 2020. The vital signs, blood gas analysis, Borg score and ROX index of patients before and one hour after HFNC application were compared, and the application effect of HFNC was judged. The HFNC failure group was defined as patients with respiratory support upgraded to non-invasive ventilation, endotracheal intubation or death within 48 h, and the indicators for predicting the HFNC failure were analyzed.Results:The failure rate of HFNC was 24.13%(42/174). There were significant differences in the heart rate, SpO 2, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and PaO 2 of successfal group before and after the use of HFNC, t values were -8.12-4.60, all P<0.05. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the change value of systolic blood pressure was a protective factor of the failure of HFNC ( OR=0.967, 95% CI were 0.949-0.985, P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of HFNC in patients with acute respiratory failure is feasible and effective, and the change value of systolic blood pressure is an indicator to predict the failure of HFNC.

Objective:To investigate the effects of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on neonatal metabolites.Methods:This retrospective cohort study recruited 580 singleton newborns who were born to women with GDM from January 2018 to December 2018 in Foshan Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital as the GDM group. Another 580 counterparts born to non-GDM singleton mothers with matching age were selected as the non-GDM group with an allocation ratio of 1 to 1. Neonatal genetic metabolic disease screening was performed within 3-7 days after birth. Two independent sample t-test, and multiple linear regression model were used for statistical analysis. Results:There were significant differences in seven amino acids and 10 fatty acids levels between the GDM and non-GDM group. The serum levels of six amino acids and eight fatty acids were increased in the GDM group, while the levels of piperamide [(140.79±32.60) vs (150.26±35.46) μmol/L, t=-4.733, P<0.001], palmitoyl carnitine [(2.59±0.81) vs (2.73±0.82) μmol/L, t=-2.940, P=0.003], and carbamate [(0.066±0.022) vs (0.069±0.022) μmol/L, t=-1.937, P=0.042] were decreased compared with the non-GDM group. After adjusting for maternal gravidity, parity, neonatal birth weight, and gender, multivariate linear regression analysis showed that GDM was positively correlated with three amino acids levels, which were cysteine ( ?=0.012), homocysteine ( ?=0.263) and leucine ( ?=4.225); and was negatively correlated with glycine ( ?=-6.271) and piperamide level ( ?=-9.885). With regard to the fatty acids, GDM was positively correlated with the neonatal propionyl carnitine ( ?=0.214), butyryl carnitine ( ?=0.014), 3-hydroxybutyryl carnitine ( ?=0.006), isovaleryl carnitine ( ?=0.009), 3-hydroxyisovaleryl carnitine ( ?=0.024), hexadecanoyl carnitine ( ?=0.001), decadienoyl carnitine ( ?=0.045), octadecadienyl carnitine level ( ?=0.128), but was negatively correlated with palmitoyl carnitine ( ?=-0.119), and carbamate ( ?=-0.002) (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Correlations between maternal GDM and the levels of amino acids and fatty acids in neonates was noted in this study, suggesting that maternal GDM may affect the metabolism of amino acids and fatty acids in offspring at early stage of life.
