ObjectiveTo dynamically observe and evaluate the damage to the pulmonary air-blood barrier in mice during the inflammatory cancer transformation process of ulcerative colitis （UC） based on the "lung-intestine correlation" theory. MethodsSixty-five C57BL/6 mice were divided into a normal group （n=25） and a model group （n=40） using a random number table. Azoxymethane/dextran sodium sulfate （DSS） method was used to establish a mouse model of UC inflammation cancer transformation in the modeling group. According to the tissue collection time points at 5， 8， 11， 13， and 15 weeks， the normal group mice were randomly divided into the normal 5w， 8w， 11w， 13w， and 15w groups. The model group mice， 10 mice of which died after the first cycle of DSS administration， were randomly divided into model 5w， 8w， 11w， 13w， and 15w groups. During the experiment， the general condition of the mice was observed daily， and their body weight was measured weekly. At the corresponding tissue collection time points， the colon length of each group was measured. Histopathology of mouse lung and colon tissues was examined using HE staining. Immunofluorescence was used to detect changes in the positive expression of tight junction protein （ZO-1）， vascular endothelial cadherin （VE-cadherin）， and cytoskeletal protein （F-actin） in lung and colon tissues. RT-PCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of apoptosis regulatory proteins B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， BCL2-associated X protein （Bax）， and Cysteine aspartic acid protease-3 （Caspase-3） in lung tissues. Western Blot was employed to measure protein levels of ZO-1， VE-cadherin， and F-actin in lung tissues. ResultsCompared to the normal group at the same time point， the mice in the model group at each time point generally had poorer conditions， with weight loss and shortened colon length （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. In the model 5w group， there was significant inflammatory cell infiltration in the colon tissue； in the model 8w group， there was mild atypical hyperplasia； in the model 11w group， the crypt structure was disordered， and moderate to severe atypical hyperplasia occurred； in the model 13w and 15w groups， tumors appeared. Pulmonary interstitial lesions， inflammation， vasculitis， and fibrosis were observed at all stages of UC inflammation cancer transformation. The protein levels of ZO-1， VE-cadherin， and F-actin， as well as Bcl-2 mRNA expression in lung tissue decreased during the acute inflammatory recovery period， atypical hyperplasia period， and canceration period， while the expressions of Bax and Caspase-3 mRNA increased； the expressions of ZO-1， VE-cadherin， and F-actin proteins in colon tissue decreased during the acute inflammatory recovery period， atypical hyperplasia period， and canceration period （P＜0.01 or P＜0.05）. Compared to the model 5w group， the ZO-1 and F-actin protein levels and Bcl-2 mRNA expression in lung tissue in the other model groups increased in the atypical hyperplasia period and canceration period， while the expressions of Bax and Caspase-3 mRNA decreased； the expression of ZO-1 protein in colon tissue increased in the canceration period， and the expression of VE-cadherin protein decreased in the atypical hyperplasia period （P＜0.01 or P＜0.05）. ConclusionIn the process of "inflammatory response-atypical hyperplasia-carcinogenesis" in UC inflammatory cancer transformation mice， there were damage to air-blood barrier.

Objective To investigate the distribution of A subgroups in the A and AB blood type populations among voluntary blood donors in Zhongshan,study the antigen-antibody characteristics of A subgroups,establish a local A subgroup database,and support the development of precision medicine.Methods ABO subgroup screening was performed using the microplate method.Specimens negative for monoclonal anti-A1 reactivity underwent sequencing of exons 1～7 of the ABO gene to confirm genotypes.Cryopreservation and thawing of glycerolized subgroup red blood cells(RBCs),as well as preservation efficacy of concentrated human-derived antibodies with preservatives,were studied.Results Among 1 212 blood donor specimens,28 subgroup specimens were identified,with a prevalence of 1.54%(15/971)in blood type A and 5.39%(13/241)in blood type AB.Sequencing of 10 specimens revealed 7 ABO genotypes:ABO*A2.01/O.01.02(2 cases),ABO*A1.02/B.01(3 cases),ABO*BA.02/O.01.02,ABO*AW.31.02-05/A2.05,ABO*A2.05/B.01,ABO*A2new/O.01.01,and ABO*A1.02/O.01.01(1 case each).Additionally,one rare allele mutation(c.700C>G)and one novel allele mutation(c.203G>T)(GenBank accession number:PQ152337)were identified.Human anti-A1 antibodies with a titer of 8 were successfully concentrated.Optimal preservation conditions included 0.1%preservative concentration and cryopreserved subgroup RBCs stored at 4℃for 3 days post-thaw.Conclusion The predominant A subgroups in Zhongshan donors are A2 and B(A).A preliminary database for A2 and A2B subgroups is established,along with the discovery of a novel ABO allele mutation.Cryopreservation with glycerol,PEG antibody concentration,and ProClin 300 preservative demonstrate effective applications in preserving ABO blood group antigens and antibodies.

Objective To investigate the in vitro antibacterial effect of Radix Sophorae Flavescentis on tigecycline-resistant carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumonia(CRKP)and elucidate how Radix Sophorae Flavescentis restores the sensitivity of CRKP to tigecycline through the efflux pump pathway.Methods The CRKP standard strain BAA1705 was induced to be tigecycline-resistant using the microdilution broth method,and the expression of efflux pumps was verified by efflux pump inhibitors.The fractional inhibitory concentration index(FIC)was calculated using the microdilution checkerboard method to determine the minimum inhibitory concertration(MIC)of the two drugs in combination.Fluorescent real-time quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to analyze the expression of the AcrB gene before and after Radix Sophorae Flavescentis treatment,and the e?ux pump activity was validated by the Rhodamine 6G e?ux assay.Results The e?ux pump inhibition experiment on the artificially induced T-BAA1705 strain showed overexpression of e?ux pumps.The combined antibacterial test results indicated synergy between Radix Sophorae Flavescentis and tigecycline(FIC=0.375 2).The qRT-PCR results showed that the AcrB levels in the Radix Sophorae Flavescentis monotherapy group were lower than in the untreated group(0.018±0.002 vs 0.040±0.001),and the AcrB levels(0.009±0.001),RamA levels(0.184±0.003)and MarA(0.013±0.001)levels in the combination therapy group were all lower than in the untreated group(0.040±0.001,0.387±0.016,0.125±0.007),while the AcrR level was higher than in the untreated group(0.388±0.001 vs 0.288±0.001),and the differences were statistical significance(t=12.28～47.12,all P<0.05);the e?ux pump activity in the Radix Sophorae Flavescentis monotherapy group and the combination therapy group was lower than in the untreated T-BAA1705(60.667±0.448,60.267±0.376,65.133±0.296),and the differences were statistical significance(t=8.31,10.17,all P<0.05).Conclusion Radix Sophorae Flavescentis can restore the sensitivity of tigecycline-resistant CRKP to tigecycline and effectively inhibit bacterial growth when used in combination with tigecycline.The mechanism may involve Radix Sophorae Flavescentis inhibiting the expression of the AcrAB-TolC e?ux pump.

Objective To investigate value and risk factors of pelvic floor three-dimensional ultrasound parameters in single spontaneous delivery primipara with bladder neck funnel formation at 6-8weeks after delivery.Methods A total of 108 cases of single spontaneous delivery primipara were selected as research objects according to three-dimensional ultrasound indexes of pelvic floor,they were assigned into two groups:Observation group(40 cases)with bladder neck funnel formation and control group(68 cases)without bladder neck funnel formation.Three-dimensional ultrasound indexes of pelvic floor and clinical symptoms were compared between two groups.Results The incidence of stress urinary incontinence(SUI),anterior vaginal wall prolapse,bladder neck distance(BND),posterior urethrovesical angle(PUA)in Valsalva state,levator hiatus area(LHA)in resting and Valsalva states,levator hiatus length(LHL),and changes in LHL(△ LHL)in observation group were all higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis revealed that SUI and anterior vaginal wall prolapse are independent risk factors for bladder neck funnel formation,adjusted OR were 11.255 and 3.643;Resting state and Valsalva state LHA,LHL,and △ LHL were also independent risk factors for bladder neck funnel formation(P＜0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis revealed that area under the curve(AUC)for diagnosing bladder neck funnel formation in SUI and anterior vaginal wall prolapse were 0.744 and 0.615,respectively;In ultrasound indicators,when the LHL of Valsalva state is＞63.5mm,the AUC is 0.706;The diagnostic sensitivity of the combination factor 1(resting state LHA+Valsalva state LHA)is 95.0％;The diagnostic specificity of the combination factor 2(Valsalva state LHL+△LHL)is 80.9％.Conclusion In patients of single spontaneous delivery primipara with bladder neck funnel formation,occurrence of SUI and vaginal anterior wall prolapse,increased LHA and LHL under two states and △LHL were independent risk factors.The diagnostic sensitivity of the combination factor 1 was higher than single index,the diagnostic specificity of the combination factor 2 was higher.

【Objective】 To investigate the frequency of platelet antibodies in voluntary blood donors and patients in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province, and to study the specificity and cross-matching of platelet antibodies. 【Methods】 Platelet antibodies of blood donors and patients were screened by solid-phase immunoadsorption (SPIA), rechecked by flow cytometry (FCM), and antibody specificity was identified by PakPlus enzyme immunoassay, and platelet cross-matching was simulated by SPIA. 【Results】 A total of 1 049 blood donor samples and 598 patient samples were tested, with 6 (0.57%) and 49 (8.19%) samples positive for SPIA,respectively(P<0.05); In SPIA positive samples, the positive concordance rate of FCM in blood donors and patients was 100% vs 95%, and that of enzyme immunoassay was 100% vs 88%. Among the initial screening positive samples of blood donors, 5 were anti-HLA Ⅰ antibodies, accounting for 83%, and 1 was anti CD36 antibody, accounting for 17%, with an incidence rate of 0.10%. Among the 14 samples of enzyme immunoassay positive patients, 2 were anti-GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa, 1 was anti-GP Ⅱa/Ⅱa, 8 were anti HLA Ⅰ, and 3 were mixed antibodies (HLA Ⅰ, GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa, GP Ⅰa/Ⅱa). According to the types of antibodies, HLA Ⅰ antibodies were the most common, accounting for 65% (11/17), followed by HPA related anti GP, accounting for 35% (6/17). The majority of patients had a platelet antibody positive typing rate below 30%, accounting for 71.4% (10/14). 【Conclusions】 The positive rate of platelet antibody of patients in Zhongshan area is significantly higher than that of voluntary blood donors, and most of them are anti-HLA Ⅰ and anti-GP, and the incidence of anti-CD36 is extremely low. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a known platelet antigen donor bank, and at the same time, carry out platelet antibody testing and matching of patients, which is helpful to solve the issue of platelet transfusion refractoriness.

Objective To investigate the results of ambulatory electrocardiographic(ECG)monitoring in a community-based homebound elderly population and to explore the applicability of wearable long-range ambulatory ECG monitor for them.Methods Elderly volunteers were recruited in Shuangbei Community,Shapingba District,Chongqing,from November 2021 to June 2023.A single-lead wearable ambulatory ECG recorder was applied to them to obtain ECG for 7 consecutive days.The adverse reactions,acceptability,monitoring duration,and arrhythmia detection rate during the wearing were described and recorded.Serious arrhythmic events included frequent atrial premature,atrial flutter,atrial fibrillation(AF),frequent ventricular premature,and RR intervals ≥5 s.Results There were 416 individuals enrolled,with a mean age of 71.2±6.6 years,and a male percentage of 36.1％(150 men).Finally,384(92.3％)participants completed the wearing of the ECG monitor for 7 d,with an average time of 159.2±29.4 h.There were 179 participants(48.5％)reporting no discomfort during wearing,and 175 ones(47.4％)feeling itchy at the wearing site.The monitoring results showed that the common arrhythmias were atrial premature contractions(97.1％),premature ventricular contractions(93.3％),atrial tachycardia(84.6％),bradycardia(46.6％),frequent atrial premature contractions(15.1％),ventricular tachycardia(13.2％),and long RR interval(11.8％).Among them,29.1％of the participants experienced serious arrhythmic events,and the detection rate of certain serious arrhythmic events was comparatively higher in the individuals≥70 years of age and those with history of previous cardiac disease.Conclusion The detection rate of common arrhythmias is quite high in the community-based homebound elderly population.A 7-day long-range ambulatory ECG monitoring may be appropriate.
