Objective To investigate changes in the microRNA expression profiles of apoptotic vesicles(apoVs)derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)under a simulated negative pressure environment,and to provide a theoretical basis for understanding the mechanism by which mechanical stress microenvironments influence the progression of osteoarthritis.Methods A negative pressure cellular environment was established using a pressure-loading system.Cell viability and apoptosis were assessed via the CCK-8 assay,Western blotting,and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining.ApoVs were isolated by differential centrifugation and characterized using transmission electron microscopy(TEM),nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA),and Western blotting.Small RNA sequencing was performed using the HiSeq Single-End mode,and differential expression analysis of microRNAs was conducted using DESeq to screen for differentially expressed microRNAs.The differentially screened microRNAs were validated by real-time quantitative PCR.After treating BMSCs with inhibitors of these differentially expressed microRNAs,the effects of the screened microRNAs on BMSCs were detected.Results Compared to apoVs generated by BMSCs under STS chemical treatment,those produced under a-40 kPa pressure environment showed significantly upregulated miR-183-5p and downregulated miR-3473.GO and KEGG enrichment analyses revealed that these differentially expressed microRNAs affected cell activity and inflammatory responses through multiple signaling pathways.Inhibition of miR-183-5p and miR-3473 expression reduced the proliferative activity of BMSCs.After inhibiting miR-183-5p expression,the levels of inflammatory factors increased.Inhibition of miR-3473 expression did not alter the IL-6 expression level,but significantly increased the TNFα expression level.Conclusions MicroRNAs specifically expressed in BMSC-derived apoVs under negative pressure stimulation may act as critical mechanical signaling mediators,regulating inflammatory response processes to participate in the pathogenesis and progression of arthritis.

Objective:To examine the therapeutic effects and molecular mechanisms of nuclear receptor NR4A1 in alleviating postoperative ileus (POI) in a rat model.Methods:Twenty-four Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly(random number) divided into four groups ( n=6/group): sham-operated control, POI model, POI model + NR4A1 stimultior (Cytosporone B, 13 mg/kg), and POI model + NR4A1 antagonist (DIM-C-pPhCO2Me, 2 mg/kg). After 24 hours, intestinal tissues and serum were collected for analysis. We assessed: (1) histopathological changes, (2) intestinal motility via propulsion rate, (3) NR4A1 expression by immunohistochemistry, (4) epithelial apoptosis via TUNEL assay, (5) inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-4) by ELISA, (6) tight junction protein (occludin) by Western blot, and (7) p38MAPK/NF-κB pathway activation through combined western blot and immunofluorescence analyses. Results:Compared with sham controls, POI model rats showed (all P<0.05): significantly reduced NR4A1 expression, severe mucosal damage, increased inflammatory infiltration, elevated epithelial apoptosis, decreased occludin expression, impaired intestinal motility, upregulated pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-4), and activated p38MAPK/NF-κB signaling. NR4A1 activation with Cytosporone B significantly reversed these pathological changes (all P<0.05), while NR4A1 inhibition exacerbated them. Conclusions:NR4A1 activation attenuates POI by suppressing p38MAPK/NF-κB-mediated inflammation and preserving intestinal barrier function, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target for postoperative ileus.

Objective To understand the clinical applicability and implementation of expert consensus on the implementation and removal of protective restraints in psychiatry,and to provide references for promoting the standardized practice of psychiatric protective restraints and updating the consensus.Methods By the convenience sampling method,a questionnaire survey was conducted among nurses from 480 hospitals in 30 provinces from June 15 to July 15,2024.The survey was conducted using the instrument for evaluating clinical applicability of guide-lines(version 2.0)and a self-compiled questionnaire on the clinical implementation of the restraint consensus.Results A total of 7,844 valid questionnaires were collected,with a valid questionnaire recovery rate of 93.78％.The results of clinical applicability scoring showed that the consensus had the lowest availability score(64.72％)and the highest acceptability score(76.74％).The results showed that nurses' receiving training and the level of their hospitals were the main influencing factors for scores in various dimensions(P＜0.05).4,774 participants(87.42％)believed that the application of consensus could enhance the standardization of nurses' restraint operations.The safety rate of the restraint consensus was 79.51％,and the economic ratio was 76.87％.Among the evaluators,1,739(22.17％)believed that there were implementation obstacles in the consensus.Conclusion The clinical applicability of the consensus is relatively good,and the application of the consensus helps to improve the standardization of clinical operations.In the future,efforts should be made to strengthen the promotion and training of the consensus,develop hierarchical promotion strategies according to the characteristics of medical institutions,and improve the quality of evidence for the consensus,so as to further enhance the clinical application effect of the consensus.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the reasons for false negative results by Optical genome mapping (OGM) analysis of three cases and propose strategies for handling them. METHODS: Three patients presented at the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University between July 2022 and July 2024 were selected as study subjects. The patients included a 37-year-old female with two miscarriages, a 1.5-year-old boy with delayed motor development, and a 35-year-old male whose son had intellectual disability. The patients had undergone comprehensive evaluation with chromosomal karyotyping analysis, single nucleotide polymorphism microarray (SNP array) assay, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and methylation-specific multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification (MS-MLPA). A retrospective analysis was also carried out on the results of OGM testing. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.: 2020-K004). RESULTS: The chromosomal karyotype of patient 1 was 46,XX,4qs, and no abnormality was found by SNP array, FISH, and OGM testing. Patient 2 had a normal chromosomal karyotype, and SNP array analysis did not reveal any copy number abnormalities of chromosomal fragments but the presence of a homozygous region of approximately 79.58 Mb at 15q11.2-q26.3 (chr15: 22817871_102397317). MS-MLPA detection indicated that the copy number of the 15q11.2-q13 region was 2, and the degree of methylation was relatively high (average ratio = 1.0). OGM detection confirmed the presence of approximately 67.97 Mb of homozygosity in the chr15:33814680_101787650 [hg38] region of 15q14-q26.3. Patient 3 had a chromosomal karyotype of 46,XY,t(9;14)(q13;q11.2). No abnormality was found by OGM testing for patients 1 and 3. CONCLUSION As a novel cytogenetic technique, OGM can achieve high-resolution and high-precision analysis for numerical and structural genomic abnormalities. Nevertheless, it also has certain limitations, as its false negative results are related to factors such as the type of genomic variation, the chromosomal regions involved in the variation, the type of disease, and the version of human reference genome. Currently, it cannot be used as an independent method for the diagnosis of genetic diseases.

Objective:To analyze the value of the modified 5-factor frailty index in assessing postoperative complications and mortality in elderly hip fracture patients.Methods:In this retrospective study, clinical data were collected of hip fracture patients aged 60 years and above surgically treated at Beijing Luhe Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University between January 2015 and December 2019.Patients' group assignment was based on whether the modified frailty index score was ≤1 or ≥2, and a post-surgery follow-up was conducted for survival at 30 days, 1 year, 2 years, and 4 years, which was analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method.Multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify factors affecting death in elderly patients.Results:A total of 1 208 patients were included, with 890 in the group with the index score ≤1 and 318 in the group with the index score ≥2.There was no difference in mortality at 30 days(1.6% or 14/890 vs.1.9% or 6/318, P=0.707), 1-year(11.3% or 99/874 vs.11.6% or 36/310, P=0.917), 2-years(19.7% or 168/852 vs.24.3% or 73/300, P=0.099)and 4-years(44.0% or 238/541 vs.51.5% or 106/206, P=0.071). The incidence of postoperative complications in the group with the score ≥2 was higher(14.8% or 47/318 vs.9.7% or 86/890, P=0.012), including the incidence of stroke(6.3% or 20/318 vs.1.8% or 16/890, P<0.001)and the incidence of postoperative pneumonia(6.0% or 19/318 vs.3.1% or 28/890, P=0.029), and the differences were statistically significant.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that age, being female, the Charlson comorbidity index score and low hemoglobin at admission were risk factors for 1-year, 2-year and 4-year mortality post-surgery(all P<0.05), while the modified frailty index score had no correlation with postoperative mortality. Conclusions:A modified frailty index ≥2 is predictive of increased risk of postoperative pneumonia and stroke in patients with hip fractures, but is not correlated with the risk of postoperative mortality.
