Aim To explore the mechanism of the effect of rosiglitazone(Rsg)on the pancreatic cancer in diabetic mice based on the impact of PPARγ on glu-cose transport and metabolism.Methods A high-fat and high sugar diet combined with STZ was used to construct T2DM model;T2DM mice and normal mice were subcutaneously injected with PANC02 cells to construct a transplanted tumor model.T2DM trans-planted tumor mice and normal transplanted tumor mice were divided into the following groups:Rsg,PPARy inhibitor(PIN-2),rosiglitazone+PPARγ in-hibitor(Rsg+PIN-2),and normal transplanted tumor mice(NDM)and T2DM transplanted tumor mice(DM)were used as control groups,respectively.Tis-sue samples were collected after intervention.Tissue pathological changes were observed by HE staining.The expressions of Ki67 and PCNA proteins were de-tected by immunohistochemistry.Cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL assay.The expression of PPARγwas detected by immunofluorescence.The expressions of Glucokinase,GLUT2,Nkx6.1,PDX-1RT-PCR were determined by Western blot.Results Rsg could significantly reduce the tumor mass,pathological chan-ges,Ki67 and PCNA expression of transplanted tumors(P＜0.05),increase cell apoptosis and the expression of PPARγ,Glucokinase,GLUT2,Nkx6.1,PDX-1 proteins in NDM and DM mice(P＜0.05).PIN-2 could reverse the indicator changes caused by Rsg in NDM and DM mice.However,compared with NDM mice,the above related indicators of the DM group mice were more sensitive to Rsg and PIN-2.Conclu-sions Compared to non-diabetic pancreatic cancer,rosiglitazone can more sensitively inhibit the prolifera-tion of pancreatic cancer with T2DM,induce apopto-sis,and reprogram the metabolism of pancreatic cancer with T2DM by activating PPA Rγ and altering the ex-pression of glucose and lipid metabolism genes,there-by exerting an anti-cancer effect.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficiency of China-made Toumai Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prosta-tectomy(LRP).Methods:This study included 40 cases of PCa treated from January 2023 to May 2023 by robot-assisted LRP with preservation of the bladder neck and maximal functional urethral length,15 cases with the assistance of Toumai Robot(the TMR group)and the other 25 with the assistance of da Vinci Robot as controls(the DVR group).We recorded the docking time,laparo-scopic surgery time,vesico-urethral anastomosis time,intraoperative blood loss and postoperative urinary continence,and compared them between the two groups.Results:Operations were successfully completed in all the cases.No statistically significant differ-ences were observed between the TMR and DVR groups in the docking time(6 min vs 5 min,P＞0.05)or intraoperative blood loss(200 ml vs 150 ml,P＞0.05).The TMR group,compared with the DVR group,showed a significantly longer median laparoscopic surgery time(146 min vs 130 min,P＜0.05)and median vesico-urethral anastomosis time(19 min vs 16 min,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences between the TMR and DVR groups in the rates of urinary continence recovery immediately af-ter surgery(60.0％[9/15]vs 64.0％[16/25],P＞0.05)or at 1 month(80.0％[12/15])vs(76.0％[19/25],P＞0.05),3 months(93.3％[14/15])vs(92.0％[23/25],P＞0.05)and 6 months postoperatively(100％[15/15])vs(96％[24/25],P＞0.05).Conclusion:China-made Toumai? Robot surgical system is safe and reliable for laparoscopic radical prosta-tectomy,with satisfactory postoperative recovery of urinary continence.

Objective To investigate the effect of balloon bionic midwifery combined with epidural analgesia on pelvic floor function in vaginal birth after cesarean section(VBAC).Methods From January 2020 to December 2021 in Nanning Maternal and Child Health Hospital,120 cases of successful vaginal delivery after a previous cesarean section were selected as study objects,and they were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method,with 60 cases in each group.The observation group received balloon bionic midwifery combined with epidural anesthesia during labor,while the control group received only epidural anesthesia during labor.The visual analog scale(VAS)scores,degree of perineal tear,total duration of labor,postpartum blood loss,and neonatal asphyxia rate,the incidence of urinary incontinence,vaginal or uterine prolapse,and pelvic floor muscle strength and functional status of two groups were compared.Results The total duration of labor in observation group was significantly shorter than that in control group,the amount of postpartum blood loss was significantly lower than that in control group,and the incidence of urinary incontinence was significantly lower than that in control group(P<0.05).The strength,fatigue and dynamic pressure of pelvic floor muscle in observation group were significantly better than those in control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of perineal laceration or lateral incision,vaginal and uterine prolapse between two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The use of balloon bionic midwifery combined with epidural analgesia during vaginal trial of labor after cesarean section can shorten labor duration,reduce postpartum blood loss,and improve postpartum pelvic floor function.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To explore the correlation between transcranial sonography (TCS) combined with serum homocysteine (Hcy), blood glucose, blood lipids, the cognitive status of Parkinson′s disease (PD) patients, and to analyze the clinical application value of these parameters in assessing the cognitive status of PD patients.Methods:A total of 152 PD patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2020 to June 2023 were retrospectively collected as the PD group, and 101 healthy examinees matched for age and gender during the same period were selected as control group. Clinical data [age, gender, duration of illness, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score, Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) score, Unified Parkinson′s Disease Rating Scale Part Ⅲ (UPDRS-Ⅲ) score, Hoehn-Yahr (H-Y) stage, etc.], serum tests (Hcy, blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein concentration), and TCS examination results (third ventricular width, midbrain area, peak systolic velocity of bilateral middle cerebral arteries, bilateral middle cerebral artery resistance index, bilateral substantia nigra hyperechoic area) were collected. The two groups were divided into pure PD group and PD group with elevated Hcy, pure control group and control group with elevated Hcy, based on an Hcy concentration threshold of ≥15 μmol/L. The differences in the above parameters among the four groups were compared. The correlation between Hcy and cognitive status (MoCA score, MMSE score) of PD patients and the above parameters were analyzed.Results:The MoCA score and MMSE score of the PD group with elevated Hcy were lower than those of the pure PD group, and the UPDRS-Ⅲ score and H-Y stage were higher than those of the pure PD group (all P<0.001). The order of Hcy concentration from high to low was PD group with elevated Hcy, pure Hcy elevation group, pure PD group, and pure control group. The differences in serum data and TCS data among the four groups were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Spearman correlation analysis showed: ①In the PD group, the concentration of Hcy was positively correlated with glucose concentration, H-Y stage, low-density lipoprotein concentration, right middle cerebral artery resistance index, UPDRS-Ⅲ score, total cholesterol concentration, triglyceride concentration, left middle cerebral artery resistance index, third ventricular width, and age ( rs=0.422, 0.350, 0.348, 0.334, 0.325, 0.300, 0.293, 0.283, 0.221, 0.164, all P<0.05); Hcy concentration was negatively correlated with midbrain area, MMSE score, MoCA score, peak systolic velocity of right middle cerebral artery, peak systolic velocity of left middle cerebral artery, and high-density lipoprotein concentration ( rs=-0.328, -0.282, -0.245, -0.229, -0.224, -0.192, all P<0.05). ②Clinical data, serum data, and TCS data of PD patients were all correlated with MoCA score and MMSE score, with midbrain area showing the largest positive correlation ( rs=0.524, 0.516; both P<0.05) and H-Y stage showing the largest negative correlation( rs=-0.490, -0.468; both P<0.05). Conclusions:PD patients with elevated Hcy have lower cognitive scores than pure PD patients. The correlation between Hcy concentration and blood glucose concentration is the highest in PD patients, followed by H-Y stage. The cognitive scores of PD patients are most correlated with midbrain area and unrelated to substantia nigra hyperechoic area. Lowering serum Hcy concentration in PD patients may be one of the ways to delay cognitive impairment.

Objective To screen differentially expressed microRNAs(miRNAs)in plasma exosomes of active rheumatoid arthritis(RA)patients and healthy controls and conduct bioinformatics analysis for exploring the role and potential clinical application value of miRNAs in the pathogenesis of RA.Methods From January 2023 to April 2023,39 RA patients who visited the Rheumatology and Immunology Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were selected as the study subjects,while 39 healthy individuals were selected as normal controls.The expression levels of miRNAs in plasma exosomes were detected by Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology,and the differentially expressed miRNAs were obtained by log2(Fold Change)absolute value>1 and P value<0.05.Six miRNAs were selected by the order from small to large P-value for bioinformatics analysis and validated using quantitative real-time fluorescence PCR(qRT-PCR).Results Compared with healthy controls,22 aberrantly expressed miRNAs were detected in plasma exosomes of RA patients,of which 4 were up-regulated and 18 were down-regulated.Among them,miR-30b-5p,miR-144-3p,miR-20a-5p,miR-223-5p,miR-425-3p,and miR-589-5p showed changed significantly.GO and KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that differentially expressed miRNAs may be involved in disease progression through regulation of signaling pathways such as TGF-β and PI3K/AKT,which were related to biological processes such as Th17 differentiation,intercellular interactions,and protein phosphorylation.The qRT-PCR validation results showed that the expression of miR-144-3p and miR-425-3p were significantly reduced in plasma exosomes of RA patients compared to healthy controls(t=3.617,3.595,all P<0.001),while the differences of miR-30b-5p,miR-223-5p,miR-589-5p,and miR-20a-5p expression were not statistically significant(t=1.956,1.331,1.662,1.861,all P>0.05).Conclusion The expression profile of plasma exosomal miRNAs changed in RA patients,which may be involved in disease progression through TGF-β and other signaling pathways.Exosome-derived miR-144-3p and miR-425-3p may be potential serological markers for RA diagnosis.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have shown that human dental pulp stem cells have good osteogenic differentiation potential and are potential seed cells in bone tissue engineering,and the effect of recombinant human growth hormone on the proliferative osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of recombinant human growth hormone on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells. METHODS:Human dental pulp stem cells were isolated and cultured by tissue block culture method.After screening according to the drug concentration gradient,recombinant human growth hormone containing 10,100,250,500,1 000 μg/L was selected as the experimental group,and 0 μg/L without recombinant human growth hormone was selected as the control group.CCK-8 detection reagents were used on days 1,3,5,and 7 after the drug intervention to detect the proliferation of human dental pulp stem cells.Different concentrations(10,100,250,500,and 1 000 μg/L)of recombinant human growth hormone were added to the osteogenesis induction solution to intervene in human dental pulp stem cells.Alkaline phosphatase activity was detected by alkaline phosphatase staining and semi-quantitative analysis on day 7 of mineralization induction.The mRNA expression levels of osteogenic gene type I collagen,osteocalcin and Runt-related transcription factor 2 were detected by fluorescence quantitative RT-qPCR.Alizarin red staining was performed on day 14 of mineralization induction to detect osteogenic mineralized nodules. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)CCK-8 assay results showed that from the third day of intervention,the 100,250,500,1 000 μg/L recombinant human growth hormone group could promote the proliferation of human dental pulp stem cells compared with the control group(P<0.01).(2)The alkaline phosphatase activity of human dental pulp stem cells in the 100,250,and 500 μg/L recombinant human growth hormone group was significantly increased compared with the control group(P<0.01).The number of alizarin-stained mineralized nodules in human dental pulp stem cells in the 100,250 μg/L recombinant human growth hormone group was significantly increased compared with the control group(P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the mRNA expression of type I collagen and osteocalcin increased in the 250 μg/L recombinant human growth hormone group(P<0.05,P<0.01).mRNA expression of Runt-associated transcription factor 2 increased in the 100 and 250 μg/L recombinant human growth hormone groups(P<0.01).(3)According to the above results,recombinant human growth hormone at a concentration of 250 μg/L is a more suitable concentration to promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human anti-severe acute respiratory syn-drome coronavirus 2(anti-SARS-CoV-2)monoclonal antibody injection(F61 injection)in the treatment of patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)combined with renal damage.Methods Patients with COVID-19 and renal damage who visited the PLA General Hospital from January to February 2023 were selected.Subjects were randomly divided into two groups.Control group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy,while trial group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy combined with F61 injection.A 15-day follow-up was conducted after drug administration.Clinical symptoms,laboratory tests,electrocardiogram,and chest CT of pa-tients were performed to analyze the efficacy and safety of F61 injection.Results Twelve subjects(7 in trial group and 5 in control group)were included in study.Neither group had any clinical progression or death cases.The ave-rage time for negative conversion of nucleic acid of SARS-CoV-2 in control group and trial group were 3.2 days and 1.57 days(P=0.046),respectively.The scores of COVID-19 related target symptom in the trial group on the 3rd and 5th day after medication were both lower than those of the control group(both P＜0.05).According to the clinical staging and World Health Organization 10-point graded disease progression scale,both groups of subjects improved but didn't show statistical differences(P＞0.05).For safety,trial group didn't present any infusion-re-lated adverse event.Subjects in both groups demonstrated varying degrees of elevated blood glucose,elevated urine glucose,elevated urobilinogen,positive urine casts,and cardiac arrhythmia,but the differences were not statistica-lly significant(all P＞0.05).Conclusion F61 injection has initially demonstrated safety and clinical benefit in trea-ting patients with COVID-19 combined with renal damage.As the domestically produced drug,it has good clinical accessibility and may provide more options for clinical practice.
