BACKGROUND:Hippocampal injury caused by aortic coarctation has been poorly studied,and combined detection of tumor necrosis factor α,nuclear factor κB and ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule-1 expression in aortic dissection has not been reported.OBJECTIVE:To observe histomorphologic changes in the hippocampus of a mouse model of aortic dissection and investigate the expression and significance of tumor necrosis factor alpha,nuclear factor kappaB and ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule-1 in the hippocampus of aortic dissection mice.METHODS:Sixteen healthy 3-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into two groups:control group and aortic dissection group,with eight mice in each group.In the aortic dissection group,mice were given β-aminopropionitrile monofumarate as drinking water for 4 weeks,and the angiotensin Ⅱ microinfiltration pump was then implanted to establish an animal model of aortic dissection.Mice in the control group were given normal diet and water.After the model was established,the maximum diameter of the ascending aorta was measured,hematoxylin-eosin staining and EVG staining were performed to evaluate the model formation rate,and the levels of inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin 6 in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The hippocampus was dissected and stained with hematoxylin-eosin to observe the pathological changes of the hippocampus in brain sections.The protein expression of tumor necrosis factor α,nuclear factor κB and ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule-1 was detected by western blot analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the control group,the maximum diameter of the ascending aorta in the aortic dissection group was significantly enlarged.(2)Hematoxylin-eosin staining of the aorta showed obvious thickening of the middle aorta and destruction and disorder of the aortic wall structure in mice.Neurons in the CA1 and CA3 regions of mice were sparsely arranged,reduced in size,and showed pyknosis with deeply stained nuclei.(3)Serum levels of inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin 6 were increased in the aortic dissection group compared with the control group(P＜0.01).(4)The expression levels of tumor necrosis factor α,nuclear factor κB,phosphorylated nuclear factor κB,and ionized calcium binding adaptor molecule-1 in the hippocampus were increased in the aortic dissection group compared with the control group(P＜0.05).To conclude,microglial activation and increased expression of tumor necrosis factor α and nuclear factor κB may be involved in hippocampal neuron injury in aortic dissection mice.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of different bone graft materials in internal fixation surgery for Schatzker type Ⅱ tibial plateau fracture(TPF).Methods A total of 108 patients with Schatzker type Ⅱ TPF in Lianyungang Municipal Oriental Hospital were selected and randomly assigned to the allogeneic cancellous bone and the artificial bone groups,with 54 cases in each group.The perioperative indicators,four coagulation items[thrombin time(TT),fibrinogen(FIB),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),prothrombin time(PT)],bone metabolic factors[bone gla protein(BGP),alkaline phosphatase(ALP),precollagen type Ⅰ N-terminal peptide(PINP)],knee motion,and numerical rating scale(NRS)score before and after operation,as well as complications,prognosis,bone graft stability were compared in the two groups.Results The hospital stay and fracture healing time in the artificial bone group were shorter than those in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).On the 7th day after surgery,the artificial bone group had longer peripheral blood APTT,TT and PT than the allogeneic cancellous bone group,and lower FIB level than the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The serum ALP,BGP and PINP levels 3 months after surgery in the two groups were higher than those before surgery(P<0.05).At 3 months after surgery,the ranges of knee extension and flexion in the artificial bone group were greater than those in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05),and the NRS score was lower than that in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in the artificial bone group was lower than that in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The excellent and good rate of knee joint function recovery 6 months after surgery in the artificial bone group was higher than that in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).The overall collapse height of the tibial lateral condylar articular surface,overall increase of lateral compartment angle,and overall loss height of lateral compartment 12 months after surgery in the artificial bone group were lower than those in the allogeneic cancellous bone group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with allogeneic cancellous bone,the use of artificial bone as the graft material during internal fixation in patients with Schatzker type Ⅱ TPF can more effectively ameliorate the postoperative coagulation status,reduce the incidence of complications,and enhance the graft stability,which is conducive to better prognosis.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

An online sample decomposition and detection method for high-throughput determination of Se content in organic samples was established based on oxygen combustion combined with hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometry.The sole product of Se in oxygen combustion,SeO2,was quantitatively captured on the walls of the combustion flask in an open system.It was then eluted online and reacted in situ with 10％(V/V)HC1 carrier solution and 2％(m/V)NaBH4 reductant solution within the combustion flask.After optimization,for a maximum sample processing amount of 0.2 g,the sample analysis throughput was 20 sample/h.The detection limit(LOD,3SD)for Se reached 0.012 mg/kg,and the relative standard deviations for parallel determinations(RSDs,n=6)was 1.7％.The analytical results of certified reference materials,scallop(GBW10024)and chicken(GBW10018),were consistent with the certified values,and the analytical results of real samples were in good agreement with those obtained by traditional wet digestion.

Objective:To establish a prediction method of diopter based on sequence of ocular biological parameters.Methods:A stratified random cluster sampling method was used to extract the dataset. The dataset consisted of data collected from January 2022 to January 2023 by the Eye & ENT Hospital, Fudan University, from children aged 5 to 13 years in 2 key schools and 2 general schools of Yangpu District, Shanghai. Children’s ocular biological parameters, including sex, age, diopter, axial length, corneal curvature, and anterior chamber depth were collected. The slope of the optimally fitted straight line was calculated using the least squares method. The least square-back propagation (BP) neural network model was established by combining baseline data and the pre-processed rate of the change of ocular biological parameters. The dataset was divided into the training set and the validation set according to the ratio of 8:2 for five-fold cross-validation. The model performance was evaluated by using the mean absolute error (MAE), mean squared error (MSE), root mean square error (RMSE), correlation coefficient R, and coefficient of determination R2. Results:The optimal performances of R2, R, RMSE, MAE, and MSE of the least square-BP neural network model were 0.96, 0.981 9, 0.214 2, 0.139 9 D, 0.045 9, respectively. The regression equation between the predicted value and the true value of the diopter was y=0.97 x+ 0.014 8, R2=0.97, with good correlation. In the internal verification, MAE values of the diopter at three, six, nine, and twelve months of follow-up were 0.110 1, 0.136 0, 0.153 7, and 0.184 8 D, respectively, which achieved clinically acceptable performance (less than 0.25 D). In the external validation, the errors were less than 0.25 D at all ages. Conclusions:A prediction method of diopter based on sequence of ocular biological parameters was successfully developed.
