Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oliceridine for treatment of moderate to severe pain after surgery with general anesthesia in patients.Methods:The patients with moderate to severe pain (numeric pain rating scale ≥4) after abdominal surgery with general anesthesia from 14 hospitals between July 6, 2021 and November 9, 2021 were included in this study. The patients were assigned to either experiment group or control group using a random number table method. Experiment group received oliceridine, while control group received morphine, and both groups were treated with a loading dose plus patient-controlled analgesia and supplemental doses for 24 h. The primary efficacy endpoint was the drug response rate within 24 h after giving the loading dose. Secondary efficacy endpoints included early (within 1 h after giving the loading dose) drug response rates and use of rescue medication. Safety endpoints encompassed the development of respiratory depression and other adverse reactions during treatment.Results:After randomization, both the full analysis set and safety analysis set comprised 180 cases, with 92 in experiment group and 88 in control group. The per-protocol set included 170 cases, with 86 in experiment group and 84 in control group. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in 24-h drug response rates, rescue analgesia rates, respiratory depression, and incidence of other adverse reactions ( P>0.05). The analysis of full analysis set showed that the experiment group had a higher drug response rate at 5-30 min after giving the loading dose compared to control group ( P<0.05). The per-protocol set analysis indicated that experiment group had a higher drug response rate at 5-15 min after giving the loading dose than control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:When used for treatment of moderate to severe pain after surgery with general anesthesia in patients, oliceridine provides comparable analgesic efficacy to morphine, with a faster onset.

Objective:To summarize the evidence of cold therapy for patients after knee joint replacement, so as to provide theoretical support for the practical implementation of cold therapy in patients after knee joint replacement in clinical practice.Methods:The literature on cold therapy for patients after knee joint replacement was systematically searched in relevant databases and websites at home and abroad. The search period was from database establishment to September 2022. The evaluation of literature quality and evidence extraction were independently completed by two researchers.Results:A total of 17 articles were included, including two clinical practice guidelines, five systematic reviews, six randomized controlled trials, and four expert consensuses. After independent evaluation and evidence extraction by two researchers, a total of 19 pieces of evidence were collected from 5 aspects: evaluation and education, observation of cold therapy, cold therapy tools, cold therapy parameters, and cold therapy effects. Among them, 8 pieces of A-level recommended evidence and 11 pieces of B-level recommended evidence.Conclusions:Cold therapy for patients after knee joint replacement is widely accepted and applied. Medical and nursing personnel should prioritize patient safety and formulate scientific cold therapy plans based on various factors such as individual differences, patient preferences, actual clinical scenarios, differences in medical equipment, medical and nursing personnel technical level, and cost-effectiveness, in order to maximize patient benefits.

To explore the relationship between progesterone receptor (PGR) gene G1978T polymorphism and endometrial carcinoma. METHODS: After searching PubMed, EMBASE, Wan-fang and CNKI databases for literatures on PGR G1978T genotyping of endometrial cancer patients, the data were extracted and odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using STATA15. The whole blood samples of endometrial carcinoma cases (EC group) and normal women (control group) were collected. Allelic-specific primers matching G1978T wild type G allele and mutant type T allele were designed with 3' terminal phosphorothioate modification, and the two-directional primer extension was performed using Exo + polymerase to genotype PGR gene G1978T polymorphism and Sanger sequencing was used to verify the genotype. RESULTS: PGR gene G1978T mutation was marginally associated with endometrial carcinoma risk (ORper allele =1.10, 95%CI=0.98-1.24, P= 0.072). At the same time, only 1 normal blood samples were found with PGR gene G1978T mutation, and the differences in genotypes and allele frequency between the case group and the control group were not statistically significantP>0.05. CONCLUSION: The G1978T polymorphism of the PGR gene maybe not be associated with the risk of endometrial carcinoma.

Objective:To investigate the effects of ginsenoside Rg1 (GS-Rg1) on the secretion of exosomes (MSC-Exo) and expression of angiogenesis related microRNAs (miRNAs) in mesenchymal stem cells.Methods:Human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (hUCBMSCs) were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group was treated with GS-RG1 at a final concentration of 40 mg/L, while the control group was treated with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at the same volume. Both groups were cultured for 24 h. The morphology of MSC-Exo was observed by transmission electron microscopy; the characteristic surface markers were identified by Western blot; the concentration of MSC-Exo was detected by dicootanobutyric acid protein quantification method, and the expression of 8 miRNAs related to angiogenesis in MSC-Exo was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results:After 24 h of incubation, MSC-Exo with a circular membrane vesicle structure was visible. MSC-Exo was positive for the expression of the characteristic surface markers CD9, CD63 and TSG101. After 24 h of intervention, the concentration of MSC-Exo protein were (1.080±0.019)μg/μl and (0.881±0.032)μg/μl in the experimental group and control group, respectively, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.01). The expression of miR-126-3p, miR-21, miR-146a-5p and miR-125b-5p in the GS-Rg1 group were significantly higher than that in the control group, while the expression of miR-16-5p was significantly lower than that in the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:GS-Rg1 promotes the secretion of MSC-Exo and enhances the expression of angiogenesis-related miRNAs within Exo to promote angiogenesis.

Objective:To investigate the in vitro inhibitory activity of a novel class Ⅰ and Ⅱb selective histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor, purinostat mesylate (PM) , in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and its mechanism.Methods:The 3- (4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl) -2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide method was used to detect the effect of PM on cell proliferation. The effects of PM on cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. The acetylation levels of HDAC substrate, cell cycle protein, apoptosis-related protein, and oncogene protein expression were detected by Western blot.Results:PM significantly inhibited the proliferation of lymphoma SUDHL-4 and SUDHL-6 cells and increased the acetylation levels of HDAC substrates H3, H4, and α-tubulin. In cell cycle experiments, PM induced G 0/G 1 phase arrest in SUDHL-4 and SUDHL-6 cells. Western blot experiment showed that PM could significantly downregulate the expression of cyclin-dependent kinases Cdk2, Cdk4, Cdk6, cyclin D1, and cyclin E and upregulate the expression of CDK inhibitor protein p21. In the apoptosis experiment, PM could induce the apoptosis of SUDHL-4 and SUDHL-6 cells. Western blot experiment demonstrated that PM promoted endogenous apoptosis by activating caspase-3 kinase and affecting antiapoptotic protein Bcl-2. In addition, PM could downregulate the expression of oncogene marker proteins MYC, IKZF1, and IKZF3. Conclusion:PM has an efficient biological activity in vitro for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, including double-hit lymphoma, and provides valuable experimental evidence for PM in clinical treatment.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of intraarterial microguidewire electrocoagulation in arterial aneurysms.Methods:(1) SilverSpeed, a kind of microguidewire used in clinical intravascular treatment for intracranial aneurysms, was used to conduct in vitro electrolysis gas generation experiment with isolated arterial blood of anticoagulant New Zealand white rabbits as medium, and thrombus attachment on the surface of microguidewire was observed under scanning electron microscope. (2) Rabbit common carotid artery aneurysm models were established by using vein bag transplantation method, and divided into microguidewire electrocoagulation treatment groups ( n=40) and blank control group ( n=10). The number of closured tumor cavity and the quality of formed thrombus were observed after electrocoagulation simulation treatment with SilverSpeed microguidewire (charging at 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18 V voltage, respectively for 1, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 min). DSA was used to observe whether there was ruptured aneurysms or thrombosis of parent artery. Twelve h later, head MRI diffusion weighted sequence scan was performed to detect whether there were new cerebral ischemia foci in the distal cerebral blood supply area of the parent artery. DSA was performed again 6 months after surgery to observe whether the aneurysms recurred. Results:(1) Electrolytic gas generation experiment results showed that bubbles were generated after electrification of SilverSpeed microguidewire; the higher the voltage, the more severe the reaction. Scanning electron microscope showed that thrombus attached to the surface of the microguidewire after electrification in isolated blood; and the higher the voltage, the denser the thrombus. (2) Under the same charging time, the higher the voltage, the larger the number of closured tumor cavity in rabbits of the microguidewire electrocoagulation treatment groups. Under the same voltage, the longer the charging time, the better the quality of thrombosis. Ischemic events occurred only in the microguidewire electrocoagulation treatment group with voltage>9 V, and the charging duration was not associated with the incidence of embolic events. When the voltage was 15 V, 2 experimental rabbits died due to aneurysm rupture 3 min after electrification. When the voltage was 18 V, 4 experimental rabbits died of cardiac arrest 9 min after electrification, and another 2 rabbits died of aneurysm rupture 6 min after electrification.Conclusions:High voltage is the main cause of adverse events in the microguidewire electrocoagulation treatment of aneurysms. After setting the appropriate voltage, prolonging the electrification time can improve the electrocoagulation effect without increasing the safety risk.

Objective:To explore the value of application and manipulation technique of neuroendoscope in microsurgical clipping of ruptured posterior communicating artery(PCoA)aneurysms via keyhole approaches.Methods:From January 2018 to December 2020, the clinical data of 52 patients who received microsurgical clipping for ruptured via keyhole approach were retrospectively analysed. Forty-one patients had the intraoperative endoscopic monitoring. The supraorbital keyhole approach or pterional keyhole approach was applied based on the characteristics of the aneurysms. According to the in-surgery requirement, a 30° rigid neuroendoscope was used before and/or after clipping. All patients entered postoperative follow-up in outpatient clinic and were evaluated with the modified Rankin Scale(mRS).Results:All 52 patients had 52 ruptured PCoA aneurysms. Eighteen of the patients were treated via supraorbital keyhole approach and 34 via pterion keyhole approach. Pre-and post-clipping endoscopic observation were carried out in 12 cases and 29 only with post-clipping endoscopic observation. Residual aneurysmal neck was detected in 3 patients. Missed clipping of perforators was found in 2 patients and followed by proper adjustment of clips. All patients received follow-up angiographic examinations. Total obliteration of the aneurysm and an intact of internal carotid artery and PCoA were found in 41 patients by the intraoperative endoscopic observation. Two residual aneurysmal neck were detected in 11 patients without intraoperative endoscopic observation. After 11 to 45 months of follow-up, all patients had good recovery(mRS 0-1).Conclusion:It is a safe and effective method with endoscopic observation during microsurgical clipping procedure for ruptured PCoA aneurysms via keyhole approaches. It can effectively make up for the insufficient visual angle of microscope, realise the anatomical relationship between the aneurysm and adjacent structures, and avoid residual aneurysmal neck and an iatrogenic injury to the parent artery and perforators.
