Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of diffuse alveolar hemorrhage. Methods 12 patients with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage hospitalized in Guangzhou NO.1 Hospital were included in the research, whose clinical characteristics were analyzed. Results 7 cases of the 12 diffuse alveolar hemorrhage cases were male and 5 cases were female. 8 cases were caused by ANCA associated vasculitis , 1 cases by connective tissue disease, 1 cases by poisoning, and 2 cases of unknown etiology (medication could be considered). The clinical manifestations were fever (91.67%), hemoptysis (100%), anemia (100%), and dyspnea (3.33%). Conclusion Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage is a life-threatening clinical syndrome. It can be caused by many causes. It should be considered if there is the presence of hemoptysis, dyspnea, anemia, etc. Timely examination and early intervention can effectively improve the prognosis of the disease.

Objective To study the electroacupuncture effects of the single point Zusanli or Sanyinjiao on simple obese rats and to observe the regulation of fat metabolism.M[ethods Before and after the treatment,the body weights and lengths of rats in each group were measured tO calculate the Lee's index;besides,total cholesteriol (TC) and triglycerides (TG) in the rat blood were also determined.Finally,the rats were treated and observed for tWO courses,and SPSS11.5 statistical software was employed to conduct statistical analysis of the experimental data.Results A significant difference was observed about the effects on the height,weight,Lee's index,TC and TG between treatment group and the model group or normal control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01),but no significant difference between treatment group and normal control group (P>0.05).Conclusion Electroacupuncture of Zusanli and Sanyinjiao points has effects on simple-obesity rats,which can make weight loss and decrease Lee's index,TC and TG levels.The underlying mechanism may relate to the improvements of fat metabolism.

This study was aimed to investigate the effect ofDanlou pills on prevent atherosclerosis from hypercholesterolemia rabbit and its relationship with inflammatory factors as well as PI3K/AKT signal pathways. A total of 24 Japanese male white rabbits were randomly divided into the control group (CL), model group (M) and Danlou group (DL), with 8 in each group. Normal diet was given to CL rabbits. High-fat diet was given to rabbits in other groups to establish the atherosclerosis model. Danlou pills (0.5 g·kg-1·d-1) were also given to DL rabbits. Rabbits were sacrificed after 9-week medication. The contents of blood lipid, TNF-α and IL-6 were detected. HE staining was used in the observation of histological changes in the aorta. Western blot was used to observe PI3K and p-AKT expression in the aorta. The results showed that compared with CL, the contents of TG, TC, LDL, IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly increased in M (P < 0.01); PI3K and p-AKT expression in the aorta were significantly decreased (P < 0.01). Compared with M, blood lipid, IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly reduced in DL (P < 0.05, orP < 0.01); PI3K and p-AKT expression were significantly increased (P < 0.01). It was concluded thatDanlou pills had prevention effects on atherosclerosis through reducing blood lipid and inflammatory factors. The action mechanism maybe related to the activation of PI3K/AKT signal pathways.

Objective: To examine the correlation between frailty and lifestyle factors among middle-aged and elderly populations, so as to provide insights into the management of frailty among middle-aged and elderly populations. Methods : Middle-aged and elderly residents at ages of 45 ot 69 years were recruited using the convenient sampling method from seven townships in Changxing County of Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2020. The demographic characteristics and lifestyle factors were collected using questionnaires, and the frailty was measured using the Chinese version of Tilburg Frailty Indicator ( TFI ). Factors affecting frailty were identified among middle-aged and elderly populations using the multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 7 170 residents were surveyed, including 2 780 males ( 38.77% ) and 4 390 females ( 61.23% ), which had a median age of 56 (interquartile range, 10) years. The median frailty score was 2 (interquartile range, 3 ) among the study subjects, and the median frailty score was 2 ( interquartile range, 2 ) among residents at ages of 45 to 59 years, and 2 (interquartile range, 3) among residents at ages of 60 to 69 years. The overall detection of frailty was 16.07%, and the detection of frailty was 13.52% among subjects at ages of 45 to 59 years and 21.01% among subjects at ages of 60 to 69 years. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified physical activity ( OR=0.826, 95%CI: 0.719-0.949 ) and sleep quality ( OR: 3.376-11.493, 95%CI: 2.907-15.808 ) as factors affecting frailty among middle-aged and elderly residents. Following age stratification, physical activity ( OR=0.817, 95%CI: 0.681-0.981 ) and sleep quality ( OR: 3.076-11.566, 95%CI: 2.518-18.216 ) as factors affecting frailty among subjects at ages of 45 to 59 years, while sleep quality ( OR: 3.777-11.827, 95%CI: 3.002-18.547 ) significantly correlated with frailty among residents at ages of 60 to 69 years. Conclusion Physical activity and sleep quality are associated with the risk of frailty among middle-aged and elderly populations.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the microsurgical tchniques and effects for the resection of anterior clinoid meningioma (ACM).

METHODSBetween January 2003 and March 2013, a total of 46 ACM patients were operated on via the pterion approach or lateral subfrontal approach. There were 16 male patients and 30 female patients, their mean age was 48.5 (16-69) years. Symptoms lasted from 1 month to 9 years(average 24.7 months). Preoperative CT and MRI examination showed that the tumors were located in the anterior clinoid process (25 cases on the right side, 21 cases on the left side). The average maximal tumor diameter was 4.4 cm (1.9-7.4 cm). The patients were peroidly followed-up on outpatient on 3 months to 6 months, then every year postoperativelly. The clinical data, radiological findings, surgical records and outcome of patients were retrospectively analyzed, and the prognostic factors were ananlyzed by using of the unpaired data χ(2) test with continuity correction.

RESULTSOf fourty-six patients operated on, apparently complete removal was achieved in 36 patients (78.3%), 10 patients (21.7%) had minimal residual tumors, 5 of which had gamma knife radiosurgery. Preexisting visual deficit improved in 21 of 41 patients (51.2%), unchanged in 16(35.6%), and worsened in 9(20.0%). At 3-6 months after discharge, 37(80.4%) patients had a good recovery, 7(15.6%) patients were moderately disabled, 1(2.2%) presented with severe disability, and 1 (2.2%) patient died of surgery-related causes. The tumor wrapping blood vessels (χ(2) = 4.676, P = 0.031) and violating cavernous sinus(χ(2) = 4.973, P = 0.026) were causes of unfavorable prognosis. During the mean follow-up of 35.1 months (range, 4-107 months) for 40 patients, the average Karnofsky score was 83.2. Tumor recurred in 4 cases: 2 of which required reoperation, and 2 had gamma knife radiosurgery.

CONCLUSIONSTumor wrapped vessels and invasion of the cavernous sinus are important unfavorable prognostic factors for ACM resection. By using appropriate surgical strategies and techniques, ACM can be removed safely via the pterion approach or lateral subfrontal approach with relatively low morbidity and mortality.

Objective:To investigate the expressions and clinical significances of histone marks H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 in colorectal cancer.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of 98 patients with colorectal cancer in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital from May 2008 to July 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, including 35 patients in the non-metastatic operation-only group, 29 patients in the synchronous hepatic oligometastasis group and 34 patients in the extensive metastasis group, and 33 patients with benign colorectal lesions who underwent colonoscopy in 2017 were selected as the control group. Immunohistochemical assay was used to detect the expressions of H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 proteins in each group, and the expressions of H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 proteins in colorectal cancer patients with different clinicopathological features were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and log-rank test was performed.Results:The positive expression rate of H3K9me3 protein in colorectal cancer group was 11.2% (11/98), which was lower than that in control group [60.6% (22/33)] ( χ2 = 33.33, P < 0.001); the positive expression rate of H3K27me3 protein in colorectal cancer group was 10.6% (13/98), which was lower than that in control group [97.0% (32/33)] ( χ2 = 76.70, P < 0.001). The positive expression rates of H3K9me3 protein were 60.6% (20/33), 17.1% (6/35), 10.3% (3/29) and 5.9 % (2/34) in the control group, the non-metastatic operation-only group, the synchronous hepatic oligometastasis group and the extensive metastasis group, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 26.10, P < 0.001); the positive expression rates of H3K27me3 protein were 97.0% (32/33), 14.3% (5/35), 20.7% (6/29) and 5.9% (2/34), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 44.16, P < 0.001). The positive expression rate of H3K27me3 in colorectal cancer tissues of patients with lymph node metastasis degree ≤0.2 was higher than that of patients with lymph node metastasis degree >0.2 [22.4% (11/49) vs. 4.2% (2/48), χ2 = 6.98, P = 0.008]. The median overall survival (OS) time of H3K9me3 positive and negative colorectal cancer patients was 77.0 months (95% CI: 10.6-143.3 months) and 34.0 months (95% CI: 25.5-42.5 months), respectively, and there was no significant difference in OS between the two groups ( P = 0.078). The median OS time of H3K27me3 positive and negative colorectal cancer patients was 39.0 months (95% CI: 15.3- 62.7 months) and 34.0 months (95% CI: 24.3-43.7 months), respectively, and there was no significant difference in OS between the two groups ( P = 0.524). Conclusions:The expressions of H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 in colorectal cancer tissues are lower than those in colorectal benign lesions, and gradually decrease with occurrence of liver metastasis and extensive metastasis. H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 may be potential cancer suppressor factors.
