Objective To investigate the relationship of triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and atherogenic index of plasma(AIP)with positive remodeling of coronary arteries in elderly coro-nary heart disease(CHD)patients with concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 120 elderly CHD patients with concomitant T2DM admitted to our department from January 2022 to June 2023 were continuously recruited,and according to the remodeling index,they were divided into positive remodeling group(47 cases)and non-positive remodeling group(73 cases).The clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic analysis was used to identify the risk factors for positive remodeling of coronary artery.Spearman correla-tion analysis was employed to analyze the correlation of TyG and AIP with positive remodeling.ROC curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of TyG and AIP for the remodeling.Results The positive remodeling group had larger ratio of smoking,higher TG and HbA1c levels,and in-creased TyG index and AIP,but lower HDL-C and blood calcium levels than the non-positive re-modeling group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking,TG,HDL-C,HbA1c,blood calcium,TyG and AIP were risk factors for positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly patients with CHD and T2DM(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic re-gression analysis showed that TyG index(OR=7.253,95％CI:2.458-13.364,P=0.035)and AIP(OR=6.017,95％CI:2.205-12.025,P=0.030)were independent risk factors for positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly patients with CHD and T2DM(P＜0.05).The AUC value of TyG index and AIP in predicting positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly CHD patients with T2DM was 0.783 and 0.766,respectively,and the value of their combination in the prediction was 0.868,which was significantly better than the indicator alone(P＜0.05).Conclusion TyG in-dex and AIP are closely associated with positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly CHD pa-tients with T2DM,and can be used as effective indicators in the prediction of positive remodeling,which is of great significance for early clinical identification of high-risk patients and formulation of individual intervention strategies.

Objective:To compare the therapeutic effects of combination regimens based on omadacycline or tigecycline in the treatment of patients with carbapenem-resistant acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB) pneumonia.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the case data of 92 patients diagnosed with CRAB pneumonia who were admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of Jinhua Municipal Central Hospital between January 2022 and March 2024. Among these cases, 49 patients received combination therapy with omadacycline as the foundation (hereafter referred to as the omadacycline group),A total of 43 cases were treated with tigecycline-based combination therapy (hereafter referred to as the tigecycline group). The demographic and clinical data of the two patient groups, including pre- and post-treatment improvements in inflammatory markers, bacterial clearance rates, ventilator weaning success rates, and 28-day survival rates, were compared.Results:No significant differences were observed in the baseline characteristics between the two patient groups.The body temperature, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein levels, and procalcitonin concentrations in both groups of patients showed significant improvement after 72 hours of treatment.The differences observed were statistically significant ( P<0.05).Following the completion of the treatment regimen, the bacterial clearance rates in the omadacycline and tigecycline groups were 69.4% and 44.2%, respectively ( P = 0.015). Moreover, the success rates for weaning patients from ventilator support were 71.4% and 51.2%, respectively ( P = 0.046).However, no statistically significant difference was observed in the 28-day survival rate.No serious adverse drug reactions were observed in either of the groups. Conclusions:Both omadacycline- and tigecycline-based combination therapies have demonstrated significant efficacy in improving inflammatory markers in patients with CRAB pneumonia. There was no statistically significant difference in the 28-day survival rate between the two patient groups. Furthermore, combination therapy utilizing omadacycline can significantly enhance the efficacy of promoting negative conversion of the etiological agent,minimize the duration of mechanical ventilation.

Objective The aim of this study was to explore the effects of changes in the estrogen receptor alpha 36(ER-α36)expression on the proliferation and membrane-initiated estrogen signaling in glioblastoma U251 cells.Methods The expression and localization of ER-α36 and EGFR glioblastoma U87 cells and U251 cells were determined by immunofluorescence,qRT-PCR and Western blot.The effect of upregulating ER-α 36 on U251 cell proliferation and estrogen signaling pathway activity by low con-centrations of 100 pmol/L icariin isomer(SNG162)was detected by MTT assay and Western blot.Results ER-α36 and EGFR were co-expressed in the cell membrane of glioblastoma.Compared with DMSO(control group),the expression ER-α36(P<0.01)and EG-FR increased in U251 cells treated with SNG162(P<0.05);Further experments also found that low concentrations of SNG162 in-creased the expression of cycle related proteins-cyclin D1,cyclin B,cyclin E and CDK4(P<0.01),and enhanced the proliferative a-bility of U251 cells(P<0.05).Conclusion The low concentration of SNG162 upregulates the expression of ER-α36,activates the estrogen-mediated ERK1/2 MAPK,p38 MAPK,and EGFR/Src signaling pathways,promotes glioblastoma proliferation,and activates the membrane initialized estrogen signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of selective cerebral mild hypothermia on the expression of histone deacetylase 1-3 (HDAC1-3) during focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods:Sixty clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 240-260 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), focal cerebral I/R group (I/R group), selective cerebral mild hypothermia group (SCH group), and normothermia group (N group). Only the cervical vessels were isolated in S group. In the other three groups, sutures were inserted into the internal carotid artery to block the middle cerebral artery for 2 h, and then the sutures were pulled out to restore perfusion for 24 h. A focal cerebral I/R model was prepared. Normal saline at 20 ℃ and 37 ℃ was infused into the internal carotid artery at a rate of 0.6 ml/min for 10 min starting from the time point immediately after removal of the sutures in SCH group and N group respectively. Cerebral temperature and rectal temperature were continuously monitored during the operation. The modified neurological severity score (mNSS) was assessed at 24 h of reperfusion. The rats were then sacrificed under deep anesthesia and brains were obtained for determination of cerebral infarct size (by TTC staining). The tissues of the cerebral ischemic penumbra were taken for determination of the apoptosis rate of neurons (by TUNEL method) and lactylation modification and expression of HDAC1-3 (by Western blot) and for observation of the morphology of neurons (by HE staining). Results:Compared with S group, the mNSS, cerebral infarct size and apoptosis rate of neurons were significantly increased, HDAC1-3 expression was down-regulated, and the lactylation modification was increased in the other three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R and N groups, the mNSS, cerebral infarct size and apoptosis rate of neurons were significantly decreased, HDAC1-3 expression was up-regulated, and the lactylation modification was decreased in SCH group ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the aforementioned parameters between I/R group and N group ( P>0.05). HE staining showed that the morphology of neurons was intact and well-defined in S group, a large number of cells with edema and irregularly solidified nuclei were found in I/R group and N group, and the nuclear shrinkage and morphological changes of neurons were alleviated in SCH group. Conclusions:The mechanism by which selective cerebral mild hypothermia alleviates cerebral I/R injury may be related to up-regulation of HDAC1-3 expression in rats.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of complicating splanchnic venous thrombosis (SVT) in severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in order to guide clinic for conducting early prevention.Methods A total of 173 patients with SAP admitted and treated in this hospital from January 2018 to December 2022 were selected and divided into the non-complicating SVT group (n=143) and complicating SVT group (n=30) ac-cording to whether having secondary SVT or not.The general data and various clinical treatment and examina-tion-related data were collected.The multi-factor logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of complicating SVT in SAP.Results Shock (P<0.001),pancreatic cyst (P=0.002),tracheal intubation (P<0.001),proportion of abnormal renal function (P=0.014),total bilirubin (P=0.049),direct bilirubin (P=0.018),AST (P=0.011),procalcitonin (P=0.021),thrombin time (P=0.024),D-dimer (P=0.003),MCTSI score (P<0.001) and APACHE Ⅱ score (P<0.001) had statistical difference between the two groups.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that pancreatic cyst (OR=2.700,95％CI:1.022-7.134,P=0.045) and APACHE Ⅱ score increase (OR=1.137,95％CI:1.002-1.290,P=0.047) were the independent risk factors for complicating SVT in SAP.Conclusion Pancreatic cysts and APACHE Ⅱ score increase are the independent risk factors for complicating SVT in SAP.These patients require close fol-low-up and timely intervention and treatment.

Early upper gastrointestinal cancer screening skills teaching is the vacancy and difficulty of endoscopic teaching and training. In this study, a standardized training program was set up for endoscopic physicians who had mastered the basic gastroscopy techniques. The training period was 12 weeks, including theoretical training, early cancer awareness training, standardized gastroscopy operation technology, endoscopic diagnosis of early esophageal and gastric cancer, and theoretical and skill examination. After passing the examination, trainees can participate in early cancer case competition. According to questionnaire survey, 100%(15/15) of trainees thought that standardized training was necessary for improving the detection rate of early upper gastrointestinal cancer, and it could significantly improve the trainees' diagnosis level. Therefore, the overall setting of the standardized training process for the diagnosis of early upper gastrointestinal cancer in our center is generally reasonable, which is worthy of further promotion.

Objectives:To study the computed tomography features of banded adhesions(BA) and matted adhesions(MA) of adhesive small bowel obstruction(ASBO).Methods:We enrolled 150 patients operated on for ASBO. According to intraoperated findings, ASBO were classified into those caused by BA or MA. A multivariable logistic regression was established to analyze independent risk factors on Computed Tomography features.Results:There were significant differences in closed-loop sign (36.8% vs. 14.3%, P=0.002) mesenteric haziness (43.7% vs. 17.5%, P=0.001), beak sign (48.3% vs. 17.5%, P<0.001), fat notch sign (39.1% vs. 9.5%, P<0.001) and peritoneal fluid (54.0% vs. 34.9%, P=0.015) between the two groups. The presence of beak sign [ OR=6.15, 95% CI (2.55-14.84), P<0.001], fat notch sign [ OR=6.19, 95% CI (2.16-17.82), P=0.001] and mesenteric haziness [ OR=3.34, 95% CI (1.34-8.32), P=0.009] were independent risk factors with BA. Conclusion:Beak sign, fat notch sign and mesenteric haziness were independent risk factors for diagnosing BA.
