Objective To investigate the surgical treatment and clinical outcome of patients with intracranial posterior circulation poor-grade aneurysms. Methods The clinical data of 35 patients with intracranial posterior circulation poor-grade aneurysms were collected. Seventeen patients were World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies (WFNS) grade IV and 18 patients were WFNS grade V. Twenty- nine patients were definitively treated with open microsurgery treatment(2 patients) and endovascular treatment (27 patients). Six patients received conservative treatment, including 4 patients only receiving external ventricular drainage to decrease intracranial pressure and 2 patients only receiving medical treatment. The nerve function were evaluated by Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) at discharge from hospital and 1 and 12 months after operation. Results In the patients who received conservative treatment, 5 patients were dead in hospital, and 1 patient got good outcome after 12 months. In the patients who received surgical treatment, at discharge from hospital good outcome were achieved in 15 patients (51.7%), poor outcome in 9 patients (31.0%), and death happened in 5 patients (17.2%). At 1 month after operation, good outcomes were achieved in 14 patients (48.3%), poor outcome in 9 patients (31.0%), and death happened in 6 patients (20.7%). At 12 months after operation, good outcome were achieved in 18 patients (62.1%), poor outcome in 5 patients (17.2%), and death happened in 6 patients (20.7%). Conclusions Patients with posterior circulation poor-grade aneurysms have better prognosis after positive surgical treatment.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of antibacterial drugs conservative therapy versus appendectomy for treating simple acute appendicitis(AA).Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCT) on antibacterial drugs conservative therapy versus appendectomy for treating simple AA were retrieved from CBM (1978 June 2015),CNKI (1979-June 2015),Medline (1950-June 2015),Pubmed (1950-June 2015),Embase (1970-June 2015) and Cochrane library (issue 2,2015) by computer.The included RCTs were performed the data extraction according to the criteria of the Cochrane handbook by two researchers.Then the included d/literatures were performed the quality assessment and the extracted effective data were performed the meta analysis.Results Six RCTs were included involving 1510 patients with AA,among them,767 cases were treated with antibacterial drugs and 743 cases were treated with appendectomy.Compared with surgical treatment,the effect rate of antibacterial medication conservative therapy was decreased by 25.00％ (RD=-0.25,95％ CI:-0.35--0.14),the recurrence rate was increased by 48.43 times (OR=48.43,95％CI:16.94-138.44),the loss time of labor force was shortened by 1.52 d (MD=-1.52,95％ CI:-3.02 0.02),but the occurrence rate of complications(RD=-0.06,95％CI:-0.15 0.03),pain time(MD=-0.76,95％CI:-3.31 1.79),hospital stay time (MD=4.60,95％CI:-0.89 10.09) and sick leave time(MD=-2.39,95％CI:-5.62-0.84) had no statistical differences between the two kinds of treatment method(P＞0.05).Conclusion Appendectomy may be the gold standard method for treaung simple AA.

Objective To investigate the effects of different dosages of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSC) on lung fibrosis. Methods BMSCs with red fluorescence protein (RFP) from male FVB mice were cultured in vitro. Twenty-four female wild type FVB mice were randomly divided into four groups: normal group, model group, BMSC 1 group and BMSC 2 group (n = 6). Mouse pulmonary fibrosis models were induced by bleomycin via single intratracheal perfusion. Twenty-four h after model establishment, mice in BMSC 1 group and BMSC 2 group were injected with 1 × 10~6 BMSCs and 2 × 10~6 BMSCs, respectively through vena caudalis for each mouse. All the animals were sacrificed 21 d after model estalishment, and mouse lung tissue samples were obtained. The pathological changes were observed by light microscopy, the hydroxyproline ( Hyp) contents were measured by alkaline hydrolysis assay, the distribution of RFP( + ) BMSCs and quantitation of RFP were analysed by laser scanning confocal microscopy and immunohistochemistry, the expression of surfactant protein A (SP-A) was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the expression of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) mRNA was detected by Real-time PCR. Results Compared with model group, the pulmonary fibrosis in BMSC 1 group was significantly alleviated, and that of BMSC 2 group became much more severe.A large number of RFP( +) BMSCs were found in fibrosis area of BMSC 2 group,which exhibited morphology similar to fibroblasts. As far as the expression of SP-A was concerned, normal group was higher than BMSC 1 group, BMSC 1 group was higher than BMSC 2 group and model group (P < 0. 05), while there was no significant difference between BMSC 2 group and model group (P >0. 05). Normal group, BMSC I group, model group and BMSC 2 group fell in the increase order by Hyp contents (P <0.01, P <0.05), and BMSC 2 group, BMSC 1 group, model group and normal group fell in the decrease order by expression of TCF-|$ and PDGF mRNA (P < 0.05). Conclusion Proper dose of BMSC has a favourable effect on bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis, while excessive dose of BMSC can aggravate the fibrosis.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for the number of lymph node harvested after Da Vinci robotic and laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 1 396 patients who underwent Da Vinci robotic or laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from December 2014 to July 2019 were collected. There were 991 males and 405 females, aged (60±11) years. Surgery using Da Vinci robotic system or laparoscopic system was completed according to patients' wishes. Cases with early gastric cancer underwent D 1+ lymphadenectomy and cases with advanced gastric cancer underwent standard D 2 lymphadenectomy. Observation indicators: (1) intraoperative situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) influencing factors for the number of lymph node harvested after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer; (4) follow-up and survival. Follow-up using outpatient examination or telephone interview was performed to detect survival of patients up to October 2020. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Multivariate analysis was performed using Logistic regression model. The survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results:(1) Intraoperative situations: all the 1 396 patients underwent radical gastrectomy, including 415 cases undergoing Da Vinci robotic radical gastrectomy and 981 cases undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. Thirty-five of the 1 396 patients were converted to open surgery, including 5 cases undergoing Da Vinci robotic radical gastrectomy and 30 cases undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. Of the 1 396 patients, 983 cases underwent distal gastrectomy, 400 cases underwent total gastrectomy and 13 cases underwent proximal gastrectomy, among which 597 cases underwent Billroth Ⅰ anastomosis, 385 cases underwent Billroth Ⅱ anastomosis, 401 cases underwent Roux-en-Y anastomosis and 13 cases underwent residual stomach-esophagus anastomosis. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss and cases with intraoperative blood transfusion were (221±51)minutes, (201±81)mL, 24 of 415 cases undergoing Da Vinci robotic radical gastrectomy, and (196±42)minutes, (232±76)mL, 75 of 981 cases undergoing laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, respectively. (2) Postoperative situations: the time to postoperative first flatus, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake and duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 1 396 patients were (3.0±1.0) days, (4.2±1.5) days and (9.0±3.8) days, respectively. Two hundred and ten of the 1 396 patients had postoperative complications including 170 cases with grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ complications and 40 cases with grade Ⅲ-Ⅴ complications. Eight of the 210 patients with postoperative complications died of serious complica-tions and the other 202 cases were cured after symptomatic treatment. Results of postoperative histopathological examination showed that there were 958 cases of adenocarcinoma, 220 cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma, and 218 cases of signet ring cell carcinoma. The number of lymph node harvested and the number of positive lymph node of the 1 396 patients were 26.0±8.3 and 3.6±0.9, respectively, and cases with the number of lymph node harvested ≥16 or <16 were 1 312 and 84. (3) Influencing factors for the number of lymph node harvested after radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer: results of univariate analysis showed that the operating surgeon, operation method, range of gastric resection, nerve invasion, degree of tumor invasion and tumor pathological N stage were related factors influencing the number of lymph node harvested after Da Vinci robotic and laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer ( χ2=13.167, 6.029, 15.686, 5.573, 9.402, 17.139, P<0.05). Results of multivariate analysis showed that the operating surgeon, operation method, range of gastric resection and tumor pathological N stage were independent factors influencing the number of lymph node harvested after Da Vinci robotic and laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer ( odds ratio=1.589, 2.018, 1.787, 0.267, 95% confidence interval as 1.221?2.068, 1.140?3.570, 1.066?2.994, 0.103?0.689, P<0.05). (4) Follow-up and survival: of the 1 396 patients, 1 256 cases were followed up for 2 to 70 months, with a median follow-up time of 27 months. The 3-year cumulative survival rate of the 1 256 cases was 70.2%. Conclusion:The operating surgeon, operation method, range of gastric resection and tumor pathological N stage are independent factors influencing the number of lymph node harvested after Da Vinci robotic and laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

Objective To investigate the mRNA expression level of neurogranin on peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs)from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE).Methods Top 20 tags of SLE PBMCs SAGE library were searched from normal lymphocytes SAGE library including navie-T,Th1,Th2, CD8+T, NK and B cells,and their abundance was compared.The mRNA expression level of neuro-granin,a differential over-expressed tag,was detected in 35 cases of SLE and 15 normal controls by reversetranscription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Neurogranin tag could only be detected in SLE PBMCs SAGE library,but was hardly found in normal lymphocyte SAGE library.However,either SLE pa-tients or normal controls showed a detectable mRNA level of neurogranin on PBMCs by RT-PCR.The mRNA level of neurogranin in active SLE patients was significantly increased than those in controls(P＜0.001).but only slightly increased in inactive SLE patients (P＞0.05).Conclusion Neurogranin,as a novel proapototic factor,is overexpressed on PBMCs of SLE patients.It may be involved in the regulation of abnormal immune responses in lupus.

Objective To explore the role of sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin-one (Siglec-1) in the process of atherosclerotic inflammation induced by oxidized low-density hpepmtein (ox-LDL). Methods Ox-LDL was synthesized by oxidization of native LDL and different concentration of ox-LDL was added to the culture medium of RAW264.7. Forty-eight hours later, cells and supernatants were collected separately. The expression of Siglec-1 protein and mRNA were measured by flow cytometry(FCM) and real-time quantitative RT-PCR, respectively. The levels of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), macrophage inflammatory protein-1α(MIP-1α) and IL-8 in supernatants were determined by ELISA. Re-sults By the stimulation of ox-LDL, Siglec-1 protein and mRNA on RAW264.7 cells were significantly in-creased, meanwhile, the cytokines levels in culture supematants were significantly higher than that in the control group. And both Siglec-1 expression and cytokine secretion were ox-LDL dose-dependent. Conclu-sion Ox-LDL can increase Siglec-1 protein and mRNA expression and some inflammatory cytokines secre-tion on RAW264.7 cells in a dose-dependent manner. Manifested by enhanced Siglec-1 expression, the acti-vated macmphages may take a part in the development and progression of atherosclerosis.

Objective To construct estrogen receptor α (ERα)trans-activation system. Methods The full length ERα and its different function regions [ ( transcriptional activation function 1 ( AF1 ), DNA inding domain ( DBD), and transcriptional activation function 2 ( AF2 ) ] were amplified from pcDNA3 -ERα by PCR and cloned into the pGAL vector. The expressions of the recombinant plasmids constructed were detected via immunoblotting. The 293T cells transfected with recombinant plasmids of full length ERα, its different function regions and empty vector were divided into 5 groups; each group was divided into 2 parts which were treated with or without estrogen (E2). The transcriptional activity of each group was detected in 293T cells after the recombinant plasmid was co-transfected with 0. 2 μg of estrogen receptor element luciferase(ERE-LUC) and 0. 1 μg of plasmid expressing β-galactosidase and treated with or without 10 nmol/L E2 for 24 hours. Results The full length ERα and its different function regions were expressed in the 293T cells. Compared with the empty pGAL vector, the transcription activities of full length ERα, AF1, AF2 and DBD recombinant plasmids were raised about 20. 44±1.01, 2. 09±0. 11, 8. 09±0. 30 and 1.05±0. 09 fold, respectively, with the induction of E2 after transfection in the 293T colls. Conclusion The trans-activation system of ERα has been successfully established.

Objective In order to analyze the variation of HA genes of influenza viruses (H1N1) by being compared with the vaccine strain A/California/07/2009(H1N1) recommended by WHO ,influenza viruses (H1N1) isolated from 2009 to 2014 were selected to do this study .Methods According to the different isolating time and place ,47 strains of H1N1 collected from 2011 to 2014 were selected .Then the 47 strains′ nucleotide sequence of HA genes which were sequenced in the study and other 25 se‐quences of HA genes which were sequenced in 2009 were collected .Nucleotide and amino acid sequences were analyzed by using molecular biology software ,and the phylogenetic trees were drawn .Results A total of 72 strains isolated from 2009 to 2014 were closely related to the vaccine strain A/California/07/2009(H1N1) ,the nucleotide variance and amino acid variance between the 72 strains were 0-2 .7% and 0-3 .1% respectively .Compared with the vaccine strain A/California/07/2009(H1N1) ,the nucleotide variance and amino acid sequence variance were 0 .4% -2 .4% and 0 .9% -3 .1% respectively .The amino acids sequence indicated that ,although the variance was increased by years ,the H1N1 viruses were still showed characteristics of low pathogenic influenza viruses .It was also found that there were 9 strains lost their potential glycosylation site at HA protein site 481 in 2009 ,while in 2013 there were 6 strains got new potential glycosylation sites at HA protein site 162 .Conclusion The vaccines (H1N1) recom‐mended by WHO was still protective to people in Chongqing .But as time goes by ,antigen drift may occur in some new antigenic drift strains and the routine monitoring of influenza viruses should be continued .
