Induction of coronary collateral circulation, that is, therapeutic angiogenesis, is considered a promising treatment for coronary heart disease.However, coronary collateral growth is a complex process and is related to a variety of factors.Although it has achieved promising outcomes in animal experiments, clinical trials have so far failed to replicate these results.Further studies on the growth mechanisms of coronary collateral circulation are still needed before a feasible clinical treatment strategy becomes available.

Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid found in plasma and cells. It is the preferred fuel for enterocytes in the small intestine, macrophages, and lymphocytes. After serious burn, increased requirement of glutamine by the gastrointestinal tract, kidney and lymphocytes, and relatively insufficient self synthesis likely contribute to the rapid decline of glutamine in circulation and cells. Glutamine supplementation can not only protect intestinal mucosa, maintain normal intestinal barrier function, reduce bacterial translocation, and enhance the intestinal immune function, but also increase the number of lymphocytes, enhance the phagocytic function of macrophage, promote the synthesis of immunoglobulin, and reduce the body′s inflammatory response, so as to enhance the immune function. Therefore, glutamine supplementation can improve and enhance the immune function, reduce complications and promote the prognosis of severely burned patients.

Objective:To systematically review the effect of information technology-based transitional care on the treatment effect of children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) , so as to provide a reliable scientific basis for their out-of-hospital transitional care.Methods:Randomized controlled trial (RCT) of information technology continued nursing intervention for children and adolescents with T1DM in PubMed, Web of Science, CNKI and other databases were searched by computer. The retrieval time was from the establishment of databases to July 31, 2021. According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, literature was screened and data was extracted. Cochrane was used to evaluate the risk of bias for literature quality. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software, and subgroup analysis was conducted on intervention methods, duration and intervention objects of different ages.Results:Finally, a total of 12 literatures were included, and the quality of literatures was medium. A total of 1 353 cases were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that there were significant differences in the glycated hemoglobin value and the incidence of acute complications between the information technology transitional care group and the traditional nursing group ( P<0.05) . Subgroup analysis showed that different intervention methods (App, Internet platform) and duration of intervention had significant differences in the effect of out-of-hospital treatment for children and adolescents with T1DM ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The use of information technology-based transitional care can improve out-of-hospital glycosylated hemoglobin value and reduce the incidence of acute complications in children and adolescents with T1DM. Different intervention methods (App, Internet platform) and different intervention time can improve the out-of-hospital treatment effect of children and adolescents with T1DM. It is suggested to promote information technology continuation care in out-of-hospital treatment of children and adolescents with T1DM.

Objective:To explore the effect of complications simulated experience in school-age children with type 1 diabetes mellitus.Methods:From March to December 2021, 80 school-age children with type 1 diabetes mellitus who were followed up in the Endocrinology Department of Quanzhou Children's Hospital were selected by convenient sampling. Children were divided into a control group and an observation group using random number method, with 40 cases in each group. The control group received routine treatment and traditional health education, while the observation group implemented complications simulated experience intervention on the basis of the control group. Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire and Diabetes Knowledge Test were used to evaluate the self-management ability and diabetes knowledge of the two groups of children before and after intervention.Results:The observation group included 37 children, while the control group included 38 children. After intervention, the scores of Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire and Diabetes Knowledge Test of children in the observation group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Complications simulated experience can improve the self-management ability and diabetes knowledge of school-age children with type 1 diabetes mellitus, which is worthy of clinical promotion and practice.

Tetrandrine(TET),a natural bisbenzyl isoquinoline alkaloid extracted from Stephania tetrandra S.Moore,has diverse pharmacological effects.However,its effects on melanoma remain unclear.Cellular prolif-eration assays,multi-omics analyses,and xenograft models were used to determine the effect of TET on melanoma.The direct target of TET was identified using biotin-TET pull-down liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometry(LC-MS),cellular thermal shift assays,and isothermal titration calorimetry(ITC)analysis.Our findings revealed that TET treatment induced robust cellular autophagy depending on activating transcription factor 6(ATF6)-mediated endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress.Simultaneously,it hindered autophagic flux by inducing cytoskeletal protein depolymerization in melanoma cells.TET treatment resulted in excessive accumulation of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and simultaneously triggered mitophagy.Sirtuin 5(SIRT5)was ultimately found to be a direct target of TET.Mechanistically,TET led to the degradation of SIRT5 via the ubiquitin(Ub)-26S proteasome system.SIRT5 knockdown induced ROS accumulation,whereas SIRT5 overexpression attenuated the TET-induced ROS accumula-tion and autophagy.Importantly,TET exhibited anti-cancer effects in xenograft models depending on SIRT5 expression.This study highlights the potential of TET as an antimelanoma agent that targets SIRT5.These findings provide a promising avenue for the use of TET in melanoma treatment and underscore its potential as a therapeutic candidate.

Objective:To evaluate the performance of magnetic beads extraction method (MGE) for the measurement of catecholamine metabolites by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.Methods:This is a methodological evaluation study. The linearity, limit of quantitation, recovery, precision, and matrix effect of catecholamine metabolites 3-methoxyepinephrine (MN), 3-methoxynorepinephrine (NMN) and 3-methoxytyramine (3-MT) extracted by MGE method were evaluated according to CLSI C62-A. Consensus of method development and validation of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry in clinical laboratories and other guidelines, 132 clinical residual plasma samples were collected and extracted by automated MGE and traditional solid phase extraction (SPE) method to compare the harmonization of the two extraction methods.Results:The linearity of MN, NMN and 3-MT extracted by automated MGE was>0.99, and the LOQ for MN, NMN and 3-MT were 0.033 5 nmol/L, 0.054 7 nmol/L and 0.011 0 nmol/L, respectively. The repeatability of MN, NMN and 3-MT were 1.3%-5.1%, 2.2%-5.6% and 1.7%-7.1%, respectively. The total imprecision in the laboratory were 1.5%-8.2%, 2.2%-7.7%, 2.1%-11.2%. Although the absolute recovery is low, the average relative recoveries of MN, NMN and 3-MT were 91.5%-108.5%, 92.0%-108.6%, and 89.3%-104.1%, respectively, and the percentage deviation from the expected concentration was within 15%. After isotope internal standard correction, the relative matrix effect is close to 100%, which can compensate for the potential matrix effect. The results of MGE and SPE of MN, NMN and 3-MT showeda good correlation (correlation coefficient r>0.99). The average relative deviations of MN, NMN and 3-MT were 0.2%, -1.4% and 1.0%, respectively. Conclusion:The automatic MGE method hasa good performance in extracting catecholamine metabolites, and is expected to be used in high-throughput analysis of samples in clinical in the future.

Objective:To determine the total and age-specific cut-off values of total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) and the ratio of free PSA divided total PSA (fPSA/tPSA) for screening prostate cancer in China.Methods:Based on the Chinese Colorectal, Breast, Lung, Liver, and Stomach cancer Screening Trial (C-BLAST) and the Tianjin Common Cancer Case Cohort (TJ4C), males who were not diagnosed with any cancers at baseline since 2017 and received both tPSA and fPSA testes were selected. Based on Cox regression, the overall and age-specific (＜60, 60-＜70, and ≥70 years) accuracy and optimal cut-off values of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA ratio for screening prostate cancer were evaluated with time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curve (tdROC) and area under curve (AUC). Bootstrap resampling was used to internally validate the stability of the optimal cut-off value, and the PLCO study was used to externally validate the accuracy under different cut-off values.Results:A total of 5 180 participants were included in the study, and after a median follow-up of 1.48 years, a total of 332 prostate cancer patients were included. In the total population, the tdAUC of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA screening for prostate cancer were 0.852 and 0.748, respectively, with the optimal cut-off values of 5.08 ng/ml and 0.173, respectively. After age stratification, the age specific cut-off values of tPSA in the <60, 60-<70, and ≥70 age groups were 3.13, 4.82, and 11.54 ng/ml, respectively, while the age-specific cut-off values of fPSA/tPSA were 0.153, 0.135, and 0.130, respectively. Under the age-specific cut-off values, the sensitivities of tPSA screening for prostate cancer in males <60, 60-70, and ≥70 years old were 92.3%, 82.0%, and 77.6%, respectively, while the specificities were 84.7%, 81.3%, and 75.4%, respectively. The age-specific sensitivities of fPSA/tPSA for screening prostate cancer were 74.4%, 53.3%, and 55.9%, respectively, while the specificities were 83.8%, 83.7%, and 83.7%, respectively. Both bootstrap's internal validation and PLCO external validation provided similar results. The combination of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA could further improve the accuracy of screening.Conclusion:To improve the screening effects, it is recommended that age-specific cut-off values of tPSA and fPSA/tPSA should be used to screen for prostate cancer in the general risk population.

Objective:To explore the incidence and mortality of digestive system cancers, and the trend of the disease burden attributed to different risk factors in population in China.Methods:Data were obtained from the GLOBOCAN 2020 and the Global Burden of Disease Study in 2019 databases and only the data from the Chinese population were included. Using Excel 2019 and R 4.2.1 software, indicators including age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), age-standardized disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rate and its rate of change were used to illustrate the disease burden of digestive system cancers attributed to different factors and their trends.Results:In 2020, the ASIR of digestive system cancers in China was 83.00/100 000, and the ASMR was 63.80/100 000. The numbers of digestive system cancer cases and deaths increased with age, and more cases and deaths occurred in men than in women in all age groups. The age-standardized DALY rate of esophageal cancer, gastric cancer and liver cancers showed decreasing trends in China from 1990 to 2019 (rate of change: -45.26%, -46.87%, and -65.63%, respectively), whereas the age-standardized DALY rate of pancreatic cancer, colorectal cancer and gallbladder and biliary tract cancer showed increasing trends (rate of change: 67.61%, 30.52%, and 7.21%, respectively). The trend of the mortality rate was consistent with the DALY rate. Compared with the age-standardized DALY rate attributed to behavioral factors, the annual proportion of the age-standardized DALY rate attributed to metabolic factors to the total age-standardized DALY rate of esophageal cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and colorectal cancer increased from 1990 to 2019. There was no significant change in the rank of age-standardized DALY rate of gastric cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, and gallbladder and biliary tract cancer attributed to different risk factors in China from 1990 to 2019, but the rank of certain attributed risk factors for the age-standardized DALY rate of esophageal cancer and colorectal cancer moved ahead (esophageal cancer: high BMI; colorectal cancer: low milk intake, and low whole-grain intake).Conclusions:The incidence and mortality of digestive system cancers was serious in China in 2020, and the annual proportion of the disease burden of digestive system cancers attributed to metabolic factors increased from 1990 to 2019. The rank of attributed risk factors for several digestive system cancers changed significantly.
