Objective To compare the effects of combination of maternal hydration and hands and knees posture with simple hands and knees posture on correction of breech pregnancy. Methods One hundred patients who were diagnosed breech pregnancy from November 2015 to November 2016 were assigned to experimental group and control group with 50 cases each according to individual willingness. The patients in experimental group received the combination of maternal hydration and hands and knees posture;while the patients in control group received simple hands and knees posture. Results Amniotic fluid index was (18.94±2.44)cm in experimental group and (15.97±2.33)cm in control group, the difference had statistic significance (t=6.239, P<0.05). The effective transfer rate and successfully used time was 92%(46/50) , (2.10 ± 0.75) weeks in experimental group and 64%(32/50), (4.27 ± 0.98) weeks in control group, the difference had statistic significance (χ2=11.422, P<0.05; t=-12.463, P<0.05). For primipara and multipara, the effective transfer rate was 90.91%(30/33), 16/17 in experimental group, and 68.75%(22/32), 10/18 in control group, the difference had statistic significance (χ2=4.986, 6.806, all P<0.05). The rate of vaginal and cesarean section deliveries was 86%(43/50), 14%(7/50) in experimental group, and 56%(28/50), 44%(22/50) in control group, the difference had statistic significance(χ2=10.928, P=0.001). Patients who had fetal movement or who didn′t have time to do correction or missed was 17.10%(46/269), 1.49%(4/269) in experimental group, and 12.55% (22/255), 7.06% (18/255) in control group. Conclusions @Therapic effects of combination of maternal hydration and hands and knees posture is much better than that of the simple hands and knees posture therapy on correction of breech pregnancy, which is worthy of popularization and application in clinic.

Objective To explore the case mixed method in diagnosis-related groups ( DRGs ) of patients with cervical cancer in Nantong and to provide references for standard hospitalization expense of cervical cancer. Methods 8610 patients with cervical cancer from Nantong Tumor Hospital from 2006 to 2013 were selected for the study. The influencing factors of hospitalization expenses were screened by multiple liner regression. DRGs case mix scheme was established by Chi-squared automatic interaction dtector in the decision tree model. Results The mean hospitalization expense was 11363 yuan and the median was 9325 yuan. The influencing factors included admitting pathways, complications, therapeutic methods and prognosis of diseases. The cases of 8610 formed 11 DRGs combinations, with the corresponding hospitalization expense standards. Conclusions Case-mix diagnosis related groups are reasonable. The standards and related weights of hospitalization expenses could serve references for hospitals and medical insurance institutions.

OBJECTIVE: To detect genomic copy number variations (CNVs) among 145 children with unexplained mental retardation/developmental delay (MR/DD) by using low-depth whole-genome copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq). METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were collected from the patients and subjected to DNA extraction and CNV-seq. The results were analyzed by a combination of bioinformatic tools. RESULTS: Forty-nine patients were found to carry a total of 67 CNVs with an average size of 5.27 Mb. Among these, 22 patients were assessed to carry MR/DD-related CNVs involving 21 syndromes. This gave a diagnostic rate of 15.17%(22/145) for CNVs associated with unexplained MR/DD. The corresponding regions of the 22 MR/DD-related CNVs in the human genome covered 174 MR/DD-related pathogenic genes, which have mapped to 18 sections on 10 chromosomes. CONCLUSION Genomic CNVs-related microdeletions/duplications account for a significant proportion of unexplained MR/DD, for which CNV-seq can provide an accurate diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the effects of curcumin on the biological characteristics and expressions of NF-κB pathway-related proteins in glucocorticoid-resistant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cell line Jurkat.Methods:The drug-resistant ALL cell line Jurkat was selected, and 1 μmol/L dexamethasone was used as the optimal concentration for drug resistance of Jurkat cells, and the cells were passaged and cultured. The cells were divided into 10, 25 and 50 μmol/L curcumin groups, as well as 50 μmol/L pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC) group, and control group (equal volume of culture medium without drug was added). The cells in each group were cultured for 72 h, and the cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope. The CCK-8 method was used to detect the proliferation ability of Jurkat cells, flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis ability and cell cycle of Jurkat cells, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the relative expressions of NF-κB p65, NF-κB p50, IκBα, and A20 mRNA, and Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of NF-κB p65, NF-κB p50, IκBα, caspase-8, caspase-3, bcl-2, and A20 proteins.Results:Jurkat cells were treated with 10, 25, 50 μmol/L curcumin and 50 μmol/L PDTC for 72 h. In the control group, the cell membranes were basically intact, the size was uniform, the cell was round and transparent, and the cell nucleus had uniform fluorescence; a large number of deformed cells and cell fragments were observed in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group, with concentrated and fragmented nuclei and obvious apoptosis. After treating Jurkat cells with different concentrations of curcumin and 50 μmol/L PDTC for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively, the cell proliferation inhibition rates in curcumin groups with different concentrations and PDTC group were higher than those in the control group (all P < 0.01). The apoptosis rates at 72 h in the control group, 10 μmol/L curcumin group, 25 μmol/L curcumin group, 50 μmol/L curcumin group, and 50 μmol/L PDTC group were (4.9±0.1)%, (99.2±0.1)%, (99.9±0)%, (100.0±0)%, and (100.0±0)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 2 876 604.40, P < 0.001); compared with the control group, the apoptosis rates in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group were higher, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the proportions of S-phase and G 2-phase cells were lower and the proportion of G 1-phase cells was higher in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group at 72 h, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the protein and mRNA expressions of NF-κB p65 and NF-κB p50 in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group were lower (all P < 0.01), while the protein expressions of IκBα, caspase-8 and caspase-3 were higher (all P < 0.01), the protein expression of bcl-2 was lower ( P < 0.01), and the protein and mRNA expressions of A20 were higher (both P < 0.01). Conclusions:Curcumin can effectively reverse glucocorticoid resistance and promote apoptosis in Jurkat cells, which may be related to the influence of curcumin on NF-κB pathway-related proteins.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of non-selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor sodium butyrate (NaB) on neuropathic pain and pain-induced memory impairment in mice.Methods:Forty clean grade male C57BL/6J mice were were divided into 4 groups by random number table method ( n=10 in each group): sham + saline, sham + NaB, chronic constriction injury (CCI)+ saline and CCI + NaB.The mouse CCI model was established by sciatic nerve ligation. Non-selective HDAC inhibitors NaB(300 mg/kg) was intraperitoneally injected into the mice in Sham+ NaB group and CCI+ NaB group once a day 15-28 days after modeling, while the mice in Sham+ saline group and CCI+ saline group were intraperitoneally injected with the same volume of saline. On the 14th and 28th day after operation, the athletic ability was measured by open field test (OFT), the pain behavior was measured by paw withdrawal threshold (PWT) and paw withdrawal latency (PWL), and the memory function was measured by Y-maze. After the behavioral experiment, hippocampus and spinal dorsal horn tissues were taken for the activity of HDAC measurement, and hippocampus tissues were taken for the expression levels of BDNF and PSD95 measurement. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis. The data were compared by repeated measurement ANOVA and one-way ANOVA. Results:After treatment with NaB, the interaction effects of the accuracy of spontaneous alternation of PWT, PWL and Y maze in mice were significant( F=21.07, 6.98, 7.79, all P<0.05). Compared with the Sham + saline group, the PWT((0.83±0.30)g, (0.25±0.22)g, (0.24±0.11)g; both P<0.05), the PWL((14.97±4.02)s, (5.99±1.51)s, (6.87±0.90)s; both P<0.05) and the spontaneous alternation in Y maze(71.57±2.80)%, (56.96±0.60)%, (62.86±4.94)%; both P<0.05) in CCI+ Saline group and CCI+ NaB group were lower. After treatment with NaB, compared with CCI + saline group, PWT((0.22±0.13)g, (0.62±0.23)g; P<0.05), PWL((5.62±2.00)s, (8.82±2.13)s; P<0.05)and the accuracy of spontaneous alternation of Y maze were significantly higher ((56.54±7.50)%, (66.35±8.20)%; P<0.05), the HDAC activity in hippocampus((173.40±7.38)%, (122.70±8.40)%; P<0.05)and in spinal cord ((153.40±10.58)%, (111.40±11.40)%; P<0.05)were significantly lower, and the expression of BDNF((0.65±0.06), (0.87±0.43); P<0.05)and PSD95((0.70±0.40), (0.87±0.04); P<0.05)were significantly higher in CCI + NaB group. Conclusion:NaB can improve neuropathic pain and pain-induced memory impairment.The mechanism may be related to the inhibition of HDAC activity and the up-regulation of BDNF and PSD95 expression in hippocampus.

Objective To observe the interventional effects of complex probiotic powder on blood bio-chemical indices and vaginal flora in pregnant women with high risk of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM). Methods One hundred and ten pregnant women with high risk of GDM recruited from the outpatient clinics of the obstetric department and nutrition department in this hospital were randomly divided into the probiotic intervention group (n=55) and the placebo control group (n=55).The intervention group was given 1 bag of complex probiotic powder per day,and the control group was given 1 bag of placebo powder.The colors,shapes,sizes and tastes of powders in the two groups remained the consistency.The intervention duration in this trial was 23 weeks.The questionnaire survey were conducted at baseline and at the intervention endpoint,and the blood biochemical indexes detections were performed at baseline,after 24-28 weeks of gestation,and after 34-38 weeks of gestation,respectively.In addition,the differences in the composition of the vaginal flora structure between the two groups of high risk pregnant women with GDM were detected at the intervention endpoint.Results A total of 97 cases were eventually included in the statistical analysis.Among them,there were 50 cases in the probiotic intervention group and 47 cases in the placebo control group.At the end of the 23 week intervention,there were no statistically significant differences in fasting blood glucose,red blood cells,hemoglobin,leukocytes,ferritin,total protein,albumin,glutamic transaminase,glutamic oxalate transam-inase and total bilirubin between the probiotic intervention group and placebo control group (P>0.05).In terms of vaginal flora,there was a significant difference in some indicators of α diversity between the probiotic group and placebo control group (P<0.05),and there was no significant difference in β diversity between the two groups (P>0.05).At the level of vaginal flora phyla,there were significant differences in the Firmicutes,Actinobacteria,Desulfobacterota,Deferribacterota,and δ-Myxococcota between the two groups (P<0.05).At the level of vaginal flora genera,the relative abundance of Lactobacillus spp.in the probiotic intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Complex probiotic pow-der supplementation may have a limited role in improving blood glucose and other related biochemical indica-tors in high-risk pregnant women with GDM.But it has a certain role in regulating the vaginal micro ecological balance in pregnant women with high risk of GDM.

Objective:To investigate the effect of continuous hemoperfusion (HP) on the levels of soluble CD14 isoform (sCD14-st) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) on patients with diquat (DQ) poisoning and its significance.Methods:A total of 86 patients with acute DQ poisoning admitted to the department of emergency medicine, Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University from May 2018 to August 2021 were enrolled and divided into the intermittent HP group (40 cases) and the continuous HP group (46 cases) according to the random number table method. All patients received basic treatment and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) within 24 hours after admission. On this basis, the intermittent HP group received HP treatment within 2 hours, lasting 2 hours each time for every 8 hours, 3 times in all; the continuous HP group received continued HP treatment until there was no DQ component in urine samples. Serum NGAL levels were detected in all patients before treatment and at 3 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 2 days, 3 days, 5 days, and 7 days after treatment. At the same time, serum sCD14-st, blood lactate (Lac), arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), serum creatinine (SCr), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels were detected before treatment and at 24 hours, 3 days, and 7 days after treatment. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was drawn to analyze the 28-day survival of patients. Results:Before treatment, there was no significant difference in serum NGAL, sCD14-st, Lac, PaO 2, SCr, CK-MB and IL-18 levels between the two groups. With the prolongation of treatment, the serum levels of NGAL, sCD14-st, Lac, SCr, CK-MB and IL-18 in the intermittent HP group increased at first and then decreased. Serum levels of NGAL, sCD14-st, CK-MB and IL-18 reached their peaks at 24 hours after treatment, and the Lac and SCr levels reached their peaks at 3 days after treatment. In addition, the levels of the above indexes at each time point in the continuous HP group were all significantly lower than those in the intermittent HP group [after 24 hours of treatment: NGAL (μg/L) was 345.90±30.75 vs. 404.24±38.79, sCD14-st (ng/L) was 1 941.88±298.02 vs. 2 656.35±347.93, CK-MB (U/L) was 30.67±9.11 vs. 43.28±8.06, IL-18 (ng/L) was 139.49±16.29 vs. 177.98±27.85; 3 days of treatment: Lac (mmol/L) was 2.98±0.26 vs. 3.72±0.49, SCr (μmol/L) was 125.01±24.24 vs. 156.74±28.88; all P < 0.05]. However, there was no significant difference in PaO 2 levels between the two groups at each time point after treatment. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 28-day mortality of patients in the continuous HP group was significantly lower than that in the intermittent HP group [26.09% (12/46) vs. 52.50% (21/40); Log-Rank test: χ2 = 7.288, P = 0.007]. Conclusion:Continuous HP could effectively reduce serum sCD14-st, NGAL levels and 28-day mortality in patients with DQ poisoning, with good curative effect.
