A simple assay for detection of phospholipase C (PLC) activity was developed based on a fluorescence liposome probe using the Liss Rhod PE-loaded phospholipid liposomes.The liposome probe was prepared by the coassembly of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) and fluorescent lipid (Liss Rhod PE).The probe showed very low background fluorescence due to fluorescence self-quenching effect of Liss Rhod PE.As the PLC enzyme selectively digested lipid, the Rhod fluorescence was recovered from its quenched state, leading to the sensitive detection of PLC.This assay provided a limit of detection (at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3) of 2 U/L for PLC.In the presence of PLC inhibitor, the fluorescent response of the sensor for PLC decreased, indicating that the assay could also be used for screening PLC inhibitors.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of esketamine on the efficacy of postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) in the patients with moderate central sensitization undergoing high tibial osteotomy.Methods:Fifty-four patients of both sexes with moderate central sensitization, aged 45-64 yr, with body mass index of 18.0-32.5 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, undergoing elective high tibial osteotomy, were divided into 2 groups ( n=27 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C) and esketamine group (group ES). Ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block was performed with 0.5% ropivacaine 30 ml on the operated side at 30 min before induction of anesthesia.In C and ES groups, midazolam 0.1 mg/kg, sufentanil 0.2 μg/kg, propofol 1.5 mg/kg, and cisatracurium besilate 0.15 mg/kg were intravenously injected in turn during induction of anesthesia, and in addition esketamine hydrochloride 0.5 mg/kg was injected in ES group, and the equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride was injected in C group, and then a laryngeal mask airway was placed.Anesthesia was maintained with intravenous infusion of remifentanil 0.1-0.3 μg·kg -1·min -1 and propofol 4-6 mg·kg -1·h -1.Esketamine hydrochloride 0.2 mg/kg was intravenously injected once every 20 min until 30 min before the end of operation in ES group, the equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride was injected according to the amount of esketamine hydrochloride injected for the same body weight at the same time point in C group, and additional cisatracurium besilate was administered intermittently according to the degree of muscle relaxation.Intraoperative BIS values were maintained at 40-60.Postoperative PCIA was performed, and the patient was admitted to the post-anesthesia care unit.When the efficacy of PCIA was not good, ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg was intravenously injected for rescue analgesia.The intraoperative consumption of remifentanil and propofol and emergence time in the anesthesia recovery room were recorded.The pressing times of PCA and the number of rescue analgesia in each group were recorded within 2 days after operation.The Chinese Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire was used to assess the nighttime sleep quality on the night of surgery and 1 and 2 days after surgery.The Chinese Quality of Recovery was used to assess the early recovery quality at 1 and 2 days after surgery.The first postoperative off-bed time and first walked distance were recorded.The adverse reactions were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the consumption of remifentanil and propofol was significantly reduced, the emergence time in the anesthesia recovery room was prolonged, the pressing times of PCA and the number of rescue analgesia were decreased within 2 days after operation, the quality of nighttime sleep was improved on the night of surgery and 1 and 2 days after operation, the quality of early recovery on 1 and 2 days after operation was increased, the first postoperative off-bed time was shortened, the first walked distance was prolonged, and the incidence of postoperative adverse effects was decreased in group ES ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Esketamine can enhance the efficacy of postoperative PCIA in the patients with moderate central sensitization undergoing high tibial osteotomy.

Objective: To compare the polishing effects of three different polishing systems on machinable composite resins and to provide a basis for the rational selection of polishing systems in the clinic. Methods : Block HC, Cerasmart, and Hyramic were fabricated into 90 test pieces. Then, 30 test pieces for each material were randomly divided into 3 groups with 10 pieces per group. The pieces were polished with the Vita Enamic ® Polishing Set (Vita group), EVE RA341 composite polishing set (Eve group), and Toboo M elastic ceramic polishing set (Tob group). The surface roughness and gloss of each test piece after polishing were measured, and the surface morphology was observed using a scanning electron microscope. Results : The surface roughness values of the Vita and Eve groups for the same composite material were significantly lower than those in the Tob group (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found between the Vita and Eve groups (P > 0.05). Lower roughness values could be achieved. The gloss values of the three composite resins in the same material group were in the order of Vita group > Eve group > Tob group, and the differences between the groups were statistically significant (P < 0.05). No significant differences in the surface roughness and gloss values were found among the different composite resins (P > 0.05). Scanning electron microscopy showed that the Vita group had fewer and lighter scratches on the surface and a more uniform texture. Conclusion The Vita Enamic ®Polishing Set can be used to cut composite resin and yields the lowest roughness and highest gloss values with the best polishing effect. The same polishing system did not exhibit significant differences in the polishing effect for different machinable composite resins.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of simple knee trainer on active knee flexion in patients with hemiplegia after stroke.Methods From March, 2020 to May, 2021, 46 hemiplegics after stroke in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were randomly divided into control group (n = 23) and experimental group (n = 23). Both groups accepted routine rehabilitation training, and the experimental group accepted knee flexion exercise training in sitting position through the simple knee trainer, for eight weeks. They were measured active knee flexion angle in sitting position and maximum flexion angle in walking before and after training, as well as Holden Functional Ambulation Category (FAC).Results Both active knee flexion angle in sitting position and maximum flexion angle in walking significantly increased in both groups after training (|t| > 6.991, P < 0.001), and increased more in the experimental group than in the control group (t > 2.185, P < 0.05). The grade of FAC also improved in both groups (|Z| > 2.828, P < 0.01), and no significant difference was found between groups (Z = -0.821, P = 0.412).Conclusion The application of simple knee trainer can effectively improve the active range of motion of knee, which may be used in clinic- and community-based rehabilitation.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of Qi-invigorating and blood-activating therapy on the miR216b/Beclin1 pathway in mice with atrophic precancerous lesions of gastric cancer （PLGC） and analyze its mechanism in autophagy of PLGC. MethodSeventy-five healthy male SPF KM mice were randomly divided into a blank group and a model group. Mice in the model group were given 1-methyl-3-nitroso-1-nitrosoguanidine （MNNG） solution （150 mg·L^-1） for free drinking and gavage and ranitidine solution （0.03 g·kg^-1） daily for 12 weeks. According to the random control table， mice were divided into a model group， a Qi-invigorating group （3.5 g·kg^-1 of Astragali Radix）， a blood-activating group （0.7 g·kg^-1 of Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma powder）， a Qi-invigorating and blood-activating group （3.5 g·kg^-1 of Astragali Radix + 0.7 g·kg^-1 of Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma powder）， and a folic acid group （2 mg·kg^-1）. The corresponding drugs were given to mice in each group for 8 weeks and then the tissues were collected. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was carried out to observe the changes in gastric mucosa. Western blot was used to detect the protein expression of microtuble-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3）Ⅰ， LC3Ⅱ， and Beclin1. Real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the mRNA expression of Beclin1 and miR-216b. ResultPathological observation showed that as compared with the blank group， the intrinsic glands of gastric mucosa decreased with atrophy and intestinal metaplasia in the model group， which were improved in all treatment groups， and the improvement of the Qi-invigorating and blood-activating group was the most obvious. As compared with the blank group， the content of LC3Ⅰ， LC3Ⅱ， LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ， and Beclin1 protein in gastric tissues of the model group was significantly decreased （P<0.05）. As compared with the model group， the content of LC3Ⅰ， LC3Ⅱ， LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ， and Beclin1 protein in gastric tissues of each treatment group was increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. The increase was most obvious in the Qi-invigorating and blood-activating group. As compared with the blank group， the mRNA expression of Beclin1 in the model group was decreased （P<0.05）， and that of miR216b was increased （P<0.05）. As compared with the model group， the mRNA expression of Beclin1 was increased and that of miR216b was decreased in each treatment group （P<0.05）， and the changes were the most obvious in the Qi-invigorating and blood-activating group. ConclusionThe mechanism of the Qi-invigorating and blood-activating therapy， represented by Astragali Radix and Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma， in treating PLGC may be through inhibiting the expression of miR216b and activating Beclin1， thus promoting autophagy and repairing gastric mucosa.
