Objective To explore characteristics of time-domain and time-frequency of task-related electroencephalogram(EEG)in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA).Methods From January,2018 to December,2021,18 PSA patients(PSA group)were recruited from Dongzhimen Hospi-tal,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,and nine healthy subjects(control group)were recruited with matched gender,age and education level.EEG data based on the Chinese word-picture matching task were col-lected,and the average amplitude of N400 and event-related synchronization(ERS)/desynchronization(ERD)were analyzed.The PSA group was assessed with Chinese Rehabilitation Research Center Aphasia Examination(CRRCAE).Results The effect of N400 was significant on left frontal,central frontal,right frontal,left central and central areas.The average amplitude of N400 was higher on the frontal area in PSA group than in the control group,and it was low-er on right temporal-parietal area.For word-picture mismatching,average amplitude of N400 at FPZ was moder-ately correlated with auditory comprehension(r=0.483,P<0.05),the average amplitude of N400 at T8 was moderately correlated with repetition(r=0.584,P<0.05)and reading aloud(r=0.556,P<0.05),and the aver-age amplitude of N400 at P6 was moderately correlated with speaking(r=0.476,P<0.05)and reading(r=0.502,P<0.05).For word-picture matching,the average amplitude of N400 at P7 was moderately negatively cor-related with calculation(r=-0.481,P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the energy decreased in θ and αfrequency bands with absence of ERS in PSA group,and it increased in β frequency band with absence of ERD.Conclusion The activities of Chinese word-picture matching task-related EEG have been inhibited on right temporal-pa-rietal area for PSA patients,and it compensatively increases on frontal area,while the energy decreases in θ and αfrequency bands with ERS deficiency,and increases in β frequency band with ERD deficiency.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of brain functional networks in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA)during a Chinese word-picture matching task.Methods A total of 18 PSA patients in Dongzhimen Hospital from January,2018 to December,2021 were enrolled as PSA group,and nine healthy controls matched for sex,age and education were included as the control group.The Chinese Rehabilitation Research Center Aphasia Examination(CRRCAE)and task-state electroencephalogram(EEG)data based on a Chinese word-picture matching paradigm were collected.Source-space reconstruction was applied to EEG signals to construct functional connectivity matrices.Graph-theoretical analysis was used to com-pute global network properties,and network-based statistics were used to identify subnetwork differences be-tween groups.Correlations between global network properties and CRRCAE subscales were further analyzed.Results The global properties of each frequency band were higher in the control group(unmatched)than in PSA group and the control group(matched)(P<0.01).Subnetworks connections enhanced in the alpha band in the frontal,temporal,parietal,occipital lobes and limbic system(23 nodes,31 edges,P<0.05),and weakened connections in the frontal,temporal,limbic system and basal ganglia(20 nodes,26 edges,P<0.01)in PSA group;in the beta band,subnetwork connections enhanced in the frontal,temporal lobes,basal ganglia and limbic system(15 nodes,23 edges,P<0.01);in the theta band,subnetwork connections weakened in the left frontal and temporal lobes(10 nodes,11 edges,P<0.05),and enhanced in the right frontal and temporal lobes(7 nodes,7 edges,P<0.05).Under the matched condition,the global properties of the alpha and beta bands in PSA group were positive-ly correlated with reading(r=0.511 to 0.650,all P<0.05),and the local efficiency and average clustering coeffi-cient of the theta band were negatively correlated with repetition(r=-0.500 to-0.505,all P<0.05);under the unmatched condition,the local efficiency and average clustering coefficient of the alpha and beta bands in PSA group were positively correlated with reading(r=0.522 to 0.642,all P<0.05),and the global efficiency and lo-cal efficiency of the alpha band were positively correlated with auditory comprehension(r=0.486 to 0.496,all P<0.05).The comparison between the task state and the resting state further revealed that compensatory connec-tion enhanced in the alpha band in the frontal lobe and limbic system(6 nodes,5 edges,P<0.05)and in the beta band in the frontal,temporal,parietal,occipital lobes and limbic system(38 nodes,52 edges,P<0.01)in PSA pa-tients.Conclusion The core network damage characteristics of PSA patients are abnormally decreased global properties across multiple frequency bands and frequency-specific abnormal network reorganization,suggesting the overall brain network efficiency decline coexists with local compensation.This provides an objective basis for the neuroelec-trophysiological evaluation and targeted intervention of PSA.

Objective:To investigate the killing effect of the oncolytic virus Rigvir on six different colorectal cancer cell lines in vitro and differences in the sensitivity of different cell lines to Rigvir,to analyze the differentially expressed genes and signaling pathways be-tween sensitive and insensitive cells and the reasons for such differences,to explore the killing mechanism of the oncolytic virus Rigvir on colorectal cancer cells based on experimental results,and to lay a theoretical foundation for the use of the oncolytic virus Rigvir as a novel immunotherapeutic drug for the treatment of colorectal can-cer.Methods:Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay was used for quantitative assessment of the inhibition rate of Rigvir on cells,and the Annexin V-FITC\PI method was used to measure the apoptosis rate of sensitive cell lines and preliminarily analyze its killing mechanism.Bioinformatics techniques were used to investigate the differentially expressed genes and signaling pathways between sensitive and insensitive cells,and Western blot experiments were used for validation and detecting the expression of apoptosis factors.High expression of upstream factors in differential signaling pathways,and application of real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and WB to detect the effect of Rigvir on the expression levels of target genes and proteins in overexpressing sensitive cell lines.Results:SW480 and HT29 were sensitive to the oncolytic virus Rigvir,others had relatively insensi-tive(P<0.001).However,the inhibitory effect of Rigvir with two concentration gradients on HT29 was more significant(P<0.001).After 48 hours of infection,the cell inhibition rate of SW480 cells no longer increased with the prolongation of infection time(F=52.010,P=0.147),but it was more sensitive to changes in virus concentration(F=13.490,P<0.001).On the contrary,changes in virus concentration had no significant effect on the inhibition rate of HT29 cells(F=8.450,P=0.281),but the inhibition rate continued to in-crease after 48 hours with the prolongation of infection time(F=24.380,P<0.001).The apoptosis rate of sensitive group cells gradually increased with the prolongation of infection time(P<0.001),which mainly characterized by late stage apoptosis and necrotic cells.Through bioinformatics techniques,significant differences were observed in the classic PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway between the sensitive and insensitive groups.Western blot experiments showed that after the application of Rigvir,the upstream protein expression of PI3K/Akt/mTOR in the sensitive cell group was significantly reduced(P<0.001).The expression levels of apoptosis factors caspase-3 and caspase-8 increased,while the Bcl-2/Bax ratio decreased(P<0.001).The results of RT-qPCR and Western blot showed that after Rigvir was applied to the sensitive cell line HT29 overexpression type,the expression levels of PI3K/Akt/mTOR upstream and downstream signaling molecules(Akt,4EBP1,and p70S6K)were significantly reduced compared to the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Rigvir can effectively kill some colorectal cancer cell lines(SW480,HT29)in vitro,its mechanism of action is partially in-duced by the PI3K/Akt/mTOR classical signaling pathway to induce cell apoptosis.

Objective To explore the task-state electroencephalogram(EEG)characteristics of working memory in patients with post-stroke aphasia(PSA). Methods From September,2020 to February,2021,a total of eight patients with PSA(PSA group)and eight healthy adults(HC group)were recruited to collect EEG and memory scale data.The EEG data of working memory task-states were used to analyze the characteristics of the EEG frequency band indicators in time domain event-related potentials(ERP)and frequency;and the correlation with the items in the memory scale. Results Finally,five patients and five controls were included.N1 and P2 components were induced in the frontal area,and P300 components were induced in the parieto-occipital area.Compared with HC group,the activation of N1 and P2 increased in central prefrontal region,while the activity of P300 decreased in the right parieto-occipital re-gion in PSA group(|t|>2.193,P<0.05).The energy of theta band decreased in the right prefrontal region and the central parieto-occipital region,the energy of alpha1 band decreased in the left parieto-occipital region,and the energy of gamma band increased in the left central region(t>2.398,P<0.05).The energy of gamma band correlated with immediate recall(r = 0.914,P = 0.030)and correct recognition(r = 0.931,P = 0.022)of Auditory Verbal Learning Test,and inverting(r = 0.924,P = 0.025)and anterograde(r = 0.889,P = 0.044)of Digit Span Test. Conclusion Visual working memory task can activate the compensatory processing activity of memory related brain re-gions after PSA,which can be used as an objective indication for the evaluation of PSA working memory related research.There is close relationship between language impairment and working memory.

Objective:To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Omalizumab for treating pediatric allergic asthma in real world in China.Methods:The clinical data of children aged 6 to 11 years with allergic asthma who received Omalizumab treatment in 17 hospitals in China between July 6, 2018 and September 30, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Such information as the demographic characteristics, allergic history, family history, total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, specific IgE levels, skin prick test, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, eosinophil (EOS) counts, and comorbidities at baseline were collected.Descriptive analysis of the Omalizumab treatment mode was made, and the difference in the first dose, injection frequency and course of treatment between the Omalizumab treatment mode and the mode recommended in the instruction was investigated.Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE) analysis was made after Omalizumab treatment.The moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, lung functions were compared before and after Omalizumab treatment.Changes in the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) results from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks after Omalizumab treatment were studied.The commodity improvement was assessed.The adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE) were analyzed for the evaluation of Omalizumab treatment safety.The difference in the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation and ICS reduction was investigated by using t test.The significance level was set to 0.05.Other parameters were all subject to descriptive analysis.A total of 200 allergic asthma patients were enrolled, including 75.5% ( n=151) males and 24.5% ( n=49) females.The patients aged (8.20±1.81) years. Results:The median total IgE level of the 200 patients was 513.5 (24.4-11 600.0) IU/mL.Their median treatment time with Omalizumab was 112 (1-666) days.Their first dose of Omalizumab was 300 (150-600) mg.Of the 200 cases, 114 cases (57.0%) followed the first Omalizumab dosage recommended in the instruction.After 4-6 months of Omalizumab treatment, 88.5% of the patients enrolled ( n=117) responded to Omalizumab.After 4 weeks of treatment with Omalizumab, asthma was well-controlled, with an increased C-ACT score [from (22.70±3.70) points to (18.90±3.74) points at baseline]. Four-six months after Omalizumab administration, the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation had a reduction of (2.00±5.68) per patient year( t=4.702 5, P<0.001), the median ICS daily dose was lowered [0 (0-240) μg vs. 160 (50-4 000) μg at baseline] ( P<0.001), the PAQLQ score was improved [(154.90±8.57) points vs. (122.80±27.15) points at baseline], and the forced expiratory volume in one second % predicted (FEV 1%pred) was increased [(92.80±10.50)% vs. (89.70±18.17)% at baseline]. In patients with available evaluations for comorbidities, including allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema, urticaria, allergic conjunctivitis and sinusitis, 92.8%-100.0% showed improved symptoms.A total of 124 AE were reported in 58 (29.0%) of the 200 patients, and the annual incidence was 0(0-15.1) per patient year.In 53 patients who suffered AE, 44 patients (83.0%) and 9 patients (17.0%) reported mild and moderate AE, respectively.No severe AE were observed in patients.The annual incidence of SAE was 0(0-1.9) per patient year.Most common drug-related AE were abdominal pain (2 patients, 1.0%) and fever (2 patients, 1.0%). No patient withdrew Omalizumab due to AE. Conclusions:Omalizumab shows good effectiveness and safety for the treatment of asthma in children.It can reduce the moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, reduce the ICS dose, improve asthma control levels, and improve lung functions and quality of life of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of macrophages (MCs) on the differentiation of mouse induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) into hepatic progenitor cells (HPCs). MethodsA total of 24 C57BL/6N mice were used to obtain MCs by peritoneal irrigation, and the supernatant was collected to obtain the conditioned medium of MCs (MC-CDM). Activin A, bone morphogenetic protein 4, and fibroblast growth factor were used to induce the differentiation of mouse iPSCs into HPCs. The differentiation of HPCs were randomly divided into control group (normal medium) and experimental group (MC group; use of MC-CDM medium on day 5 of induction). Morphology, immunofluorescence assay, and Western blot were used to compare the morphology of HPCs and the expression of related proteins between the control group and the MC group. The t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups. ResultsHPCs derived from iPSCs were established in vitro, and HPCs had the potential to differentiate into hepatocytes. Immunofluorescence assay showed that compared with the D12 control group, the D12 MC group had a significant increase in the protein expression of the HPC-specific protein CK19 (0.901±0.072 vs 0.686±0.097, t=-3.093, P＜0.05). Western blot showed that compared with the D12 control group, the D12 MC group had a significant increase in the protein expression of the HPC-related protein CK19 (1.922±0.103 vs 1.448±0.012, t =-7.881, P ＜005), as well as a significant increase in the protein expression of the autophagy-related protein LC3 (1.392±0.042 vs 1.101±0048, t =-5.978, P＜005). ConclusionMCs can promote the differentiation of mouse iPSCs into HPCs, possibly by increasing the autophagy level of HPCs.
