Objective:To investigate the serum levels of miR-19b and miR-744-5p in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and to analyze the clinical value of miR-19b and miR-744-5p in the diagnosis of NSCLC.Methods:A total of 226 NSCLC patients (NSCLC group) and 100 healthy people (control group) admitted to Jilin Cancer Hospital from August 2019 to August 2022 were selected as research objects. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure and compare the serum levels of miR-19b and miR-744-5p between the NSCLC group and the control group, and the relationships between the two indicators and different clinical and pathological characteristics of NSCLC patients were analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to analyze the clinical value of miR-19b, miR-744-5p and their joint detection in the diagnosis of NSCLC.Results:Compared with the control group, the serum miR-19b level (3.86±1.25 vs. 1.06±0.41) in the NSCLC group significantly increased ( t=21.87, P<0.001), while the miR-744-5p level (1.80±0.48 vs. 5.75±1.69) significantly decreased ( t=32.36, P<0.001). The serum miR-19b levels in NSCLC patients with pathological types of adenocarcinoma, maximum tumor diameter ≥3 cm, medium to low differentiation, stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, and with lymph node metastasis were higher than those in squamous cell carcinoma ( t=5.94, P<0.001), maximum tumor diameter <3 cm ( t=2.65, P=0.009), well differentiation ( t=4.33, P<0.001), stageⅠ-Ⅱ ( t=12.32, P<0.001), patients without lymph node metastasis ( t=8.13, P<0.001), while miR-744-5p levels were lower than those in squamous cell carcinoma ( t=8.27, P<0.001), tumor maximum diameter <3 cm ( t=5.34, P<0.001), well differentiation ( t=6.95, P<0.001), stageⅠ-Ⅱ ( t=11.40, P<0.001), patients without lymph node metastasis ( t=10.36, P<0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) of serum miR-19b combined with miR-744-5p in the diagnosis of NSCLC was 0.914 (95% CI: 0.841-0.959), with sensitivity and specificity of 90.9% and 84.0%, respectively. AUC was significantly than that of the single indicator detection of miR-19b (AUC=0.824, 95% CI: 0.770-0.869) and miR-744-5p (AUC=0.783, 95% CI: 0.709-0.838) ( Z=2.28, P=0.021; Z=2.36, P=0.017) . Conclusion:Serum miR-19b level of NSCLC patients is increased, miR-744-5p levels is decreased, and joint detection of serum miR-19b and miR-744-5p has high clinical value in the diagnosis of NSCLC.

Objective To explore the effects of intensive self-care intervention on self-care agency, reactive mode, psychology and voice functional recovery in patients undergoing self-retaining laryngoscope CO2 laser vocal polyp resection after leaving hospital. Methods From January 2016 to June 2017, 75 patients with selective self-retaining laryngoscope CO2laser vocal polyp resection were selected. From January to September 2016, a total of 37 patients with conventional nursing were selected as control group. From October 2016 to June 2017, a total of 38 patients accepting intensive self-care intervention were chosen as observation group. The self-care agency, reactive mode and voice functional recovery of patients in two groups were compared at different times. Results The score of self-care agency of two groups all increased one and three months after leaving hospital compared with that on admission (P< 0.05). The score of self-care agency of observation group one and three months after leaving hospital were (125.32±6.75) and (122.46±8.24) significantly higher than those [(117.69±12.47) and (115.38±10.25)]of control group (P< 0.05). The score of positive coping style of observation group one and three months after leaving hospital were (23.87±1.76) and (24.00±1.83) significantly higher than those [(20.13±1.20) and (20.08±1.35)]of control group (P< 0.05). The fine rate of voice functional recovery in observation group one month after leaving hospital was 78.95% higher than that (51.35%) in control group with a significant difference (P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the fine rate of voice functional recovery between two groups after 3 months leaving hospital (P>0.05). Conclusions Intensive self-care intervention can improve the self-care agency, positive coping style and promote voice functional recovery in patients undergoing self-retaining laryngoscope CO2laser vocal polyp resection.

Objective:To investigate the effects of cattle encephalon glycoside and ignotin(CEGI)on the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)and neuronal nuclear antigen(NeuN)in the brain of APP/PS1 model mice of Alzheimer's disease.Methods:A total of 36 5-month-old APP/PS1 dual-transgenic model mice were randomly divided into 3 groups: the model group(normal saline 6.6 ml·kg -1·d -1), CEGI group(CEGI 6.6 ml·kg -1·d -1)and donepezil group(donepezil 2 mg·kg -1·d -1), with 12 in each group.Twelve C57BL/6J mice of the same age were used as the normal control group.All mice were given drugs for 6 weeks consecutively.Brain tissue was collected for immunohistochemical staining to detect the expression of amyloid β-protein(Aβ), GFAP and NeuN, which were then analyzed quantitatively. Results:The results of immunohistochemical staining indicated that levels of Aβ and GFAP were higher and levels of NeuN were lower in the model group than in the normal control group(0.147±0.068% vs.0%, 61.750±22.020 vs.26.000±4.598, 0.021±0.002 vs.0.032±0.003, P<0.05). Levels of Aβ and GFAP were lower and levels of NeuN were higher in the CEGI group and the donepezil group than in the model group(0.058±0.055 % vs.0.057±0.045 %, 38.250±5.418 vs.36.130±5.963, 0.029±0.004 vs.0.027±0.003, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the expression of Aβ, GFAP and NeuN between the CEGI group and the donepezil group( P>0.05). Conclusions:CEGI has multi-target neuroprotective effects via down-regulating the expression of Aβ and GFAP and up-regulating the expression of NeuN.

Objective:To explore the correlation between attempted suicide and childhood trauma as well as inflammatory cytokines levels in adolescents with depressive disorder.Methods:From January to December 2021, a total of 164 adolescents with depressive disorder were included and categorized into attempted suicide group ( n=108) and non-attempted suicide group ( n=56) according to whether they accompanied attempted suicide or not. The Chinese version of the suicide module of MINI 5.0, the childhood trauma questionnaire(CTQ), and the center for epidemiological studies depression scale (CES-D) were used to assess suicidal behavior, childhood trauma and depressive symptoms, while the plasma inflammatory cytokines levels were measured by electrochemiluminescence technology. The data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 23.0 software. Logistic regression was applied to analyze the independent influencing factors of attempted suicide and the predictive value of each independent risk factor for attempted suicide was assessed by receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC) curves. Results:The prevalence of attempted suicide was 65.9%(108/164) in adolescents with depressive disorder.The univariate analyses showed that the total CTQ score ((55.19±12.44), (45.50±12.11)) ( t=-4.771, P<0.001), CES-D total score ((40.75±10.26), (32.98±13.39)) ( t=-4.131, P<0.001), IL-6 level(1.87 (1.32, 2.69) pg/mL, 1.56 (1.05, 1.87) pg/mL)( Z=-3.102, P=0.002), IL-10 level (0.53 (0.38, 0.83) pg/mL, 0.47 (0.31, 0.69) pg/mL) ( Z=-2.100, P=0.036) and IL-17A level (2.20 (1.52, 3.65) pg/mL, 1.67 (1.25, 2.97) pg/mL) ( Z=-2.254, P=0.024) in plasma of patients in the attempted suicide group were significantly higher than those in non-attempted suicide group. Logistic stepwise regression analyses showed that CTQ total score, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-17A were risk factors for attempted suicide in adolescents with depressive disorder.The ROC showed that the total score of CTQ combined with IL-6 (AUC=0.782, 95% CI=0.709-0.855, P<0.001), the total score of CTQ combined with IL-10 (AUC=0.765, 95% CI=0.688-0.841, P<0.001), and the total score of CTQ combined with IL-17A (AUC=0.762, 95% CI=0.684-0.840, P<0.001) had a larger area under the curve, indicating better recognition and prediction ability for attempted suicide, with high sensitivity and specificity. Conclusion:The incidence of attempted suicide in adolescents with depressive disorder is high, and which is closely related to childhood trauma and the levels of inflammatory cytokines.

Laboratory animals are the foundational conditions and indispensable technical support in life science research and biomedical industry development. The scientific development of animal models of diseases is of great significance to biomedical research and industrial development. In light of the booming development of multiple emerging in vitro modelling technologies over the past decade, in 2022, the U.S. Senate unanimously passed the bill FDA Modernization Act 2.0. This bill rescinded the requirement for animal testing in investigating the safety and effectiveness of a drug—a federal mandate since 1938, and highlighted the potential of various in vitro disease modeling approaches in future biomedical fields. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the latest advances and applications of in vitro disease modeling approaches in academia and industry followed by an interpretation of the FDA bill, namely cell culture, organoid, organ-on-a-chip, 3D bio-printing model and computer-based model. The paper next introduces the crossed applications of various disease models and discusses the advantages and disadvantages of each system, thereby providing insights into future trends in the use of animal disease models in China.
