Objective:To evaluate the relationship between the mechanism underlying methylprednisolone-induced alleviation of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK)/nucleotide binding oligomerization domain (NOD)-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) pathway in lung tissues of rats.Methods:Sixty clean-grade male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 270-320 g, aged 4-5 months, were divided into 3 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), mechanical ventilation group (group V), and methylprednisolone group (group M). Group C breathed air spontaneously for 4 h without mechanical ventilation.Group V was mechanically ventilated (RR 40 times/min, V T 40 ml/kg, I∶E 1∶1, PEEP 0, FiO 2 21%) for 4 h. Group M received intravenous methylprednisolone 10 mg/kg at 20 min before mechanical ventilation.At 4 h of mechanical ventilation, broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected to measure the concentrations of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-18, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio), and lung tissues were obtained for microscopic examination of the histopathological changes and for detection of the expression of p38MAPK, phosphorylated p38MAPK (p-p38MAPK), NLRP3, apoptosis-related speck-like protein containing a CARD (ASC), and cysteinyl aspartate-specific protease-1 (caspase-1) (using Western blot). Results:Compared with group C, the W/D ratio of lung tissues and concentrations IL-1β, IL-18 and TNF-α in BALF were significantly increased, and the expression of p-p38MAPK, NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 was up-regulated in group V ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in group M ( P>0.05). Compared with group V, the W/D ratio of lung tissues and concentrations of IL-1β, IL-18 and TNF-α in BALF were significantly decreased, and the expression of p-p38MAPK, NLRP3, ASC and caspase-1 was down-regulated in group M ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The mechanism by which methylprednisolone alleviates VILI may be related to inhibition of p38MAPK/NLRP3 pathway activity and reduction of inflammatory responses in lung tissues of rats.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of intrauterine adhesions in patients after hysteroscopic surgery for subumcosal myoma of uterus, and to construct and evaluate a nomogram prediction model.Methods:The clinical data of 322 patients underwent hysteroscopic surgery for subumcosal myoma of uterus in Dongguan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2017 to December 2020 were collected. The univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the factors affecting the occurrence of intrauterine adhesions, according to the analysis results, R software was used to construct a nomogram prediction model that affected the occurrence of intrauterine adhesions after hysteroscopic surgery for subumcosal myoma of uterus, and the H-L fit curve and the area under the curve were used to evaluate the effectiveness and discrimination of the model.Results:Through a 1-year follow-up, it was found that 47 patients had intrauterine adhesions (adhesions group), accounting for 14.60%; another 275 patients was enrolled in non-adhesions group. The results of univariate analysis showed that combined pelvic inflammatory disease, pregnancy times, history of curettage, combined uterine fibroids, and serumtransforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 level were risk factors that affected the occurrence of intrauterine adhesions ( P<0.05). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum TGF-β1 level, pelvic inflammatory disease, history of curettage and uterine fibroids were independent risk factors that affected the occurrence of intrauterine adhesions ( P<0.05). The nomogram prediction model was established with the results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis, and the discrimination of the nomogram model was evaluated, the results showed that the area under the curve was 0.854, and the sensitivity and specificity were 91.50% and 70.50%, respectively. The validity of the model (H-L fit curve) was evaluated and the results showed that χ2 = 7.12, P = 0.413. Conclusions:Serum TGF-β1 level, combined with pelvic inflammatory disease, history of curettage, combined with uterine fibroids are independent risk factors that affect the occurrence of uterine adhesions after hysteroscopic surgery for subumcosal myoma of uterus. The constructed nomogram prediction model has relatively good effectiveness and discrimination. It can be used as an effective predictive tool for early clinical intervention.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the clinical features and mutation of MUT gene in a Chinese patient with isolated methylmalonic acidemia.

METHODSThe clinical characteristics and laboratory tests data were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood leukocytes. The 13 exons and their flanking sequences of the MUT gene were amplified with polymerase chain reaction and subjected to direct DNA sequencing.

RESULTSThe patient has featured failure to thrive, lethargy, seizure, hypotonia, severe ketoacidosis and hyperammonemia. Tandem mass results showed reduction of multiple acylcarnitine. Urine organic acid testing showed pronounced increase in methylmalonate excretion. Homocysteine was normal. The patient showed no response to vitamin B12 treatment. The above results suggested that the patient had isolated methylmalonic acidemia. DNA sequencing analysis confirmed that the patient has carried two MUT gene mutations, c.755dupA and a novel mutation c.944dupT.

CONCLUSIONInherited metabolic disease screening plays an important role in the diagnosis of clinical diseases. However, to confirm the results will need gene mutation analysis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the clinical phenotype and ACAT1 gene mutation in a family affected with beta-ketothiolase deficiency (BKTD).

METHODSClinical features and laboratory test data were collected. The probands were monozygotic twin brothers. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood leukocytes obtained from the probands and their family members. Molecular genetic testing of the ACAT1 gene was carried out.

RESULTSThe probands have presented with fever, vomiting and severe ketoacidosis. By arterial blood gas testing, pH was determined to be 7.164, bicarbonate was 4.0 mmol/L, and urine ketone was ++++. Urinary organic acid gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis showed excessive excretion of 3-hydroxybutyric acid, 2-methyl-3-hydroxybutyric acid and tiglylglycine. Increased 3-hydroxybutyrylcarnitine (C4-OH), tiglylcarnitine(C5:1) and 3-hydroxyisovalerylcarnitine (C5-OH) levels. The clinical phenotype of proband's parents were both normal, but an elder sister turned out to be an affected patient. Genetic analysis has identified two heterozygous mutations [c.622C>T(p.R208X) and c.653C>T (p.S218F)] in the proband, which were respectively detected in the mother and father. The c.653C>T (p.S218F) mutation was not found among the 100 healthy controls and has not been included in the Human Gene Mutation Database(HGMD).

CONCLUSIONThe primary clinical manifestations of BKTD is ketoacidosis. Urine organic acid and blood acylcarnitine analyses play an important role in the diagnosis of the disease. The compound heterozygous of ACAT1 gene mutations probably underlie the BKTD in our patient.
