OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate(MEHP) on proliferation of primary neural stem cells(NSCs)of rats and NE-4C cells of mice and on the migration of NE-4C cells and the mechanism. METHODS NE-4C or NSCs were treated with MEHP 1,10,100 and 1000 μmol · L-1 for 72 h,respectively. The cytotoxicity was estimated with the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). Cell proliferation was analyzed by EdU assay. The mRNA expression levels of the glucocorticoid receptor(GR),signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(Stat3)and sex determining region Y (SRY)-box 2(Sox2) were detected by qRT-PCR. The protein expression levels of total GR,GRβ, Sox2,Stat3 and p-Stat3 were measured by Western blotting. RESULTS Cell viability of NE-4C cells and NSCs at MEHP 1000μmol·L-1 was significantly decreased,which was 70.3%and 40.0%of the control group, respectively. EdU assay showed that MEHP 100 μmol · L-1 decreased NE-4C cells and NSCs by 74.8%and 12.0%(P<0.05)compared with control. The effect of MEHP on the cell migration of NE-4C was evidenced by the fact that the migration was obviously reduced to (63.4±2.0)%(P<0.05)after treatment with MEHP 100μmol · L-1 for 72 h. The mRNA expression levels associated with proliferation and migration in NE-4C of GR,Stat3 and Sox2 in MEHP 100 μmol · L-1 group were down-regulated to 49.8%,26.0% and 14.0%of control(P<0.05). At MEHP 100μmol · L-1,mRNA of GR, Stat3 and Sox2 in NSCs declined to 10.0%,14.0% and 15.3% of normal control. Western blotting results revealed that protein expressions of GR,GRβ,Sox2 and p-Stat3 were remarkably inhibited by MEHP 100 μmol · L-1 in that the relative expression of NE-4C was 0.92 ± 0.17,0.87 ± 0.35,0.81 ± 0.22 and 0.62 ± 0.24(P<0.05). The corresponding protein expression in NSCs was 0.82 ± 0.20,0.56 ± 0.12,0.84 ± 0.36 and 0.53 ± 0.20(P<0.05)when the cells were treated with MEHP 100μmol · L-1 for 72 h. CONCLUSION MEHP can inhibit the proliferation and migration of NE-4C cells and NSCs possibly by decreasing Stat3 and Sox2 that are mediated by GRβ.

Objective To observe the effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb) on intestinal function after spinal cord injury (SCI) in rats. Methods 36 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into group A (n=12), group B (n=12) and group C (n=12). SCI model was established with Allen's mode (10 g×25 mm) at T10. 30 minutes later, group A was intraperitoneally injected with methylprednisolone 30 mg/kg every 24 hours; group B was injected with Shuxuening injection (EGb) 1.75 mg/kg every 24 hours; group C were injected with equal volume of saline. The slow wave of intestinal smooth muscle was measured, the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum were determined 1 day, 3 days and 7 days after modeling, while intestinal tissue was tested with HE staining. Results The amplitude and frequency of the myoelectric slow wave increased in the groups A and B 3 and 7 days after modeling compared with those in the group C (P<0.05); meanwhile, the activity of SOD increased and content of MDA decreased in the groups A and B (P<0.05). The HE scores decreased in the groups A and B compared with those in the group C (P<0.05), which presented that the inflammatory exudation was mild, the hemorrhagic spot was few and the area was limited. The intestinal villous of the group C was blunt with large infiltration of inflammatory cells and inflammatory exudate on the mucosal surface. Conclusion EGb can improve the recovery of intestinal function in rats spinal cord injury through antioxidant.

Objective To investigate the influencing factor of the morphology of unruptured intracranial aneurysms for aneurysm wall enhancement under the high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging. Methods From January 2015 to December 2016,the clinical and imaging data of 68 consecutive patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysm (86 aneurysms) in Changhai Hospital,the Second Military Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. Vascular wall imaging technology was used to conduct aneurysm scan,and the aneurysm wall enhancement was identified by the imaging features before and after contrast enhancement. They were divided into either an enhancement group ( n=32,34 aneurysms) or a non-enhancement group (n=45,52 aneurysms) according to whether having the abnormal enhancement of aneurysm wall or not ( because some patients also have enhanced aneurysms and non-enhanced aneurysms, the number of cases of the enhanced or not was calculated seperately in both groups ) . Morphological parameters were calculated by 3D image data,including aneurysm size,ratio of height to width,volume ratio, dome-to-neck ratio, transverse length ratio, bottleneck factor, and inflow angle. Univariate and multivariate logistic analyses were used to determine the morphological influence factors of aneurysm wall enhancement. Results (1) A total of 34 (39. 5%) aneurysms had aneurysm wall enhancement and 52 (60. 5％) aneurysms did not have aneurysm wall enhancement. There were no significant differences in sex, age, hypertension,diabetes, smoking, family history of subarachnoid hemorrhage, and aneurysm site in both groups (all P>0. 05). (2) The aneurysm size,ratio of height to width,volume ratio,dome-to-neck ratio, and bottleneck factor in the enhancement group were larger than those of the non-enhancement group. There were significant differences between the 2 groups (9. 19 [6. 54,11. 04] mm vs. 5. 31 [4. 17,7. 37] mm, (1. 18 [1. 01,1. 69] vs. 0. 91 [0. 72,1. 25],(3. 62 [2. 30,4. 63] vs. 2. 18 [1. 37,2. 76],1. 52 [1. 25, 1. 99] vs. 1. 19 [1. 03,1. 51],and 1. 21 [1. 11,1. 69] vs. 1. 05 [0. 94,1. 31],all P<0. 01). The proportion of irregular morphologic aneurysms in the enhancement group was higher than that in the non-enhancement group. There was significant difference between the 2 groups (55. 9％ [19/34] vs. 17. 3％ [9/52],P<0. 01 ) . There were no significant differences in transverse length ratio and inflow angle between the 2 groups (all P>0. 05). (3) Because the ratio of height to width,volume ratio,dome-to-neck ratio,and bottleneck factor were related to the aneurysm size,the aneurysm size,inflow angle,and irregular shape were included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis. The results showed that aneurysm size ( OR,3. 727,95％CI 1. 933-6. 971,P<0. 01) and irregular shape (OR,3. 990,95％CI 1. 219-13. 065,P=0. 022) were the independent risk factors for aneurysm wall enhancement. Conclusions The size and irregular shape of unruptured intracranial aneurysms are the independent risk factors for aneurysm wall enhancement. High-resolution magnetic resonance wall imaging may become an effective and noninvasive imaging method for evaluating the ruptured risk of intracranial aneurysms.

Objective To investigate the prevalence rate of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in Xiangya Hospital,and provide reference for preventing and controlling HAI.Methods The cross sectional surveys on preva-lence rates of HAI,cross-sectional antimicrobial use,and bacterial detection among all hospitalized patients on the given days in 2000-2014 (except 2006)were carried out by combination of bedside investigation and medical record reviewing.Results The prevalence rates of HAI in 2000-2014 decreased from 6.30% to 3.91%,difference was statistically significant (χ2 = 35.14,P < 0.001 );prevalence rates of community-associated infection(CAI)were 15.61%-15.76%,there was no significant difference among each year.General intensive care unit (ICU)had the highest prevalence rate;respiratory tract was the most common site of both HAI and CAI;urinary catheterization rate showed a decreased tendency,arteriovenous catheterization rate showed a increased tendency,difference were both significant(χ2 = 5.21,96.24,respectively,both P <0.001).In 2008 - 2014,pathogenic detection rates for specimens from patients receiving therapeutic antimicrobial agents were 36.37%-44.51%,from patients with HAI were 34.00%-44.99%,detection rate of pathogens causing HAI were 41.57%-68.48%,all showed a increased tendency,difference was significant (χ2 = 22.78,10.03,26.49,respectively,all P < 0.001 ).Gram-negative bacteria were the main pathogens causing infection;both cross sectional and combination antimicrobial usage rates declined (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Prevention and control of HAI,and antimicrobial management has achieved preliminary success,prevalence rate of HAI and cross sectional antimicrobial usage rate declined obviously,the main pathogen is gram-negative bacteria,and the major infection site is lower respiratory tract.

Objective:To evaluate the nutritional status of patients with decompensated liver cirrhosis and explore the correlation with malnutrition and the risk factors of depressed mood.Methods:190 cirrhotic patients admitted to the Department of Gastroenterology of the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from June to September 2023 were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Eligible patients were divided into subgroups based on the presence or absence of malnutrition as determined by subjective global assessment (SGA). The Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CES-D) scale was used to assess patients' propensity for depressed mood. Relevant clinical data were also collected and analyzed.Results:A total of 185 patients were included, of which 126 were in the non-malnutrition group and 59 malnutrition group. There were significant between-group differences in terms of CES-D results, age, body mass index, platelets, D-dimer, serum sodium, third lumbar skeletal muscle index, grip strength, triceps skinfold thickness, and upper arm muscle circumference (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that grip strength, triceps skinfold thickness, upper arm muscle circumference, serum sodium, and depressed mood tendency status were correlated with the development of cirrhotic malnutrition ( P<0.05). The diagnostic model for malnutrition in cirrhosis using these five indicators showed the area under the curve of 81.9%. Conclusions:Depression is closely related to the development of malnutrition in patients with liver cirrhosis. Independent risk factors for malnutrition in cirrhosis include serum sodium≤135 mmol/L, grip strength, triceps skinfold thickness, lower-than-normal upper arm circumference , and the tendency of depression , which demonstrate the combined contribution to the diagnosis of malnutrition in cirrhosis.

Objective To investigated the effect of tripterygium glycosides(TG)on dextran sodium sulfate(DSS)-induced colonic mucosal damage in ulcerative colitis(UC)mice and its regulatory mechanism.Methods Forty C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a normal group,a model group,and a tretinoin low,medium,and high dose group(administered at concentrations of 9.00mg/kg,27.03mg/kg,and 81.09mg/kg,respectively).The mice in the normal group were free to drink distilled water,and the rest of the mice drank 5％DSS to induce UC modeling.After modeling,mice in the model group were given 0.4ml of saline by gavage daily,and the rest of the mice in the treatment group were given the corresponding dose of TG for gavage intervention.The mass and disease activity index of the mice in each group were compared,and the pathological and histological damage of the colon was observed.Tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),malondialdehyde(MDA),and superoxide dismutase(SOD)levels were measured using the corresponding kits.Western blot Detection of Nur77,tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 2(Traf2),nucleoporin 62(P62),autophagy protein-microtubule associated protein1 light chain 3(LC3)molecular expression.Results Compared with the blank group,the body weight,colon length,SOD,Nur77,Traf2,and LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ levels of mice in the model group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the DAI level,colon pathology score,TNF-α,MDA level,and P62 of the mice were significantly increased(P<0.05).Compared with mice in the UC model group,mice in the low,medium and high dose groups of tretinoin polyphenols showed significant increases in body weight,colon length,SOD,Nur77,Traf2,LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰlevels(P<0.05),and mice with DAI scores,TNF-α,MDA levels in the colon,and P62 levels were significantly decreased(P<0.05).Mice in the medium and high dose groups of tretinoin polyphenols pathological scores were significantly reduced(P<0.05).Conclusion TG is able to treat ulcerative colitis through Nur77-Traf2-P62 signaling pathway.

Objective: To explore the patient and hospital related determinants of adherence to early antithrombotic therapy among patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: AIS patients aged 50 years old or above who were eligible for early antithrombotic therapy, were included from the China National Stroke Registry Ⅱ (CNSR Ⅱ) project. Characteristics related to patients and hospitals were collected. Univariate analysis method was conducted to explore the correlation between hospital or patient-related determinants and early antithrombotic therapy. A 2-level logistic regression model was set up to identify patient and hospital-related variables that were associated with the adherence to early antithrombotic therapy, with patient as level 1 and hospital as level 2. Results: A total of 16 910 patients were included in the study, with 14 332 (84.75%) of them having received early antithrombotic therapy. Results from the univariate analysis showed that the patient determinants to early antithrombotic therapy would include age, type of health insurance, average income and history of dyslipidemia. Hospital determinants would include factors as: level and region of the hospital, academic status, with/without stroke unit, quality control on single disease and the percentage of neurological beds in total beds (P<0.05). Data on multilevel model showed that the patient-related determinants on early antithrombotic therapy would include age, gender, average income, history of hypertension, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission while hospital related determinants would include percentage of neurological beds in total beds, and region of the hospital (P<0.05). Conclusions The quality of a hospital was associated with the adherence to early antithrombotic therapy. AIS patients at advanced age or with high NIHSS score at admission should be paid more attention.
