This study aims to analyze the main drug resistance mechanism of Salmonella enteritidis induced by polymyxin in vitro.In this study,the resistance of Salmonella enteritidis CMCC(B)50335(ZK)to polymyxin was induced in vitro,and the growth characteristics,exercise ability,ul-trastructure and sensitivity to 16 antimicrobial agents before and after induction were determined by turbidimetry,semi-solid agar method,transmission electron microscope and disk diffusion method,and the whole genome and single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)were detected by Illu-mina NovaSeq PE150 method.RT-qPCR was used to detect the differences in the expression levels of six drug-resistant related genes.The recombinant strain △phoPE1-128-1,which induced drug-resistant strain E1-128-1,was constructed by homologous recombination of Red Escherichia coli,and its sensitivity to polymyxin was detected.The results showed that three strains of induced drug-resistant bacteria E1-128-1,E1-128-3 and E2-128-3 were screened out,and the MIC increased by 128,64 and 64 times respectively after drug resistance stability test.Induced drug resistance had no significant effect on the growth ability of the tested bacteria and the sensitivity of 16 antibacte-rial drugs.The exercise ability of E1-128-1was significantly increased,and the cell wall and plasma membrane obviously thicken.There was no significant difference in the genome components of E1-128-1 before and after induction,but eight missense mutations of six drug-resistance related genes,including phoP/phoQ,cpxP,lptD,csrA and acrB,were detected,including four missense mutation sites of phoP,namely Leu185Trp,His189Ser,Thr190Tyr and Ile191His.The corresponding genes were sequenced by PCR,and the results were consistent with those of SNP.RT-qPCR results showed that the expression levels of mutant genes of the three induced strains increased signifi-cantly.Compared with E1-128-1,the MIC of △phoP E1-128-1 decreased to 1 mg/L.It is sug-gested that the mutation and increased expression of phoP gene are important factors for inducing polymyxin resistance of Salmonella CMCC(B)50335 in vitro.

Objectives: . Considerable research has been focused on independent predictors of difficult laryngeal exposure (DLE) during suspension laryngoscopy. However, previous studies have yielded inconsistent results and conclusions. Consequently, we performed a meta-analysis of the existing literature with the aim of identifying significant parameters for a standardized preoperative DLE prediction system. Methods: . We systematically retrieved articles from the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang databases up to October 2022. Data from eligible studies were extracted and analyzed using the R programming language. The effect measures included odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for dichotomous variables and mean differences (MDs) with 95% CIs for continuous variables. Results: . The search yielded 1,574 studies, of which 18 (involving a total of 2,263 patients) were included. Pooled analysis demonstrated that patients with DLE during microsurgery tended to be male (OR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.16–2.57); were older (MD, 5.47 years, 95% CI, 2.44–8.51 years); had a higher body mass index (BMI; MD, 1.19 kg/m2; 95% CI, 0.33–2.05 kg/m2); had a greater neck circumference (MD, 2.50 cm; 95% CI, 1.56–3.44 cm); exhibited limited mouth opening (MD, −0.52 cm; 95% CI, −0.88 to −0.15 cm); had limited neck flexibility (MD, −10.05 cm; 95% CI, −14.10 to −6.00 cm); displayed various other anatomical characteristics; and had a high modified Mallampati index (MMI) or test score (OR, 3.37; 95% CI, 2.07–5.48). Conclusion . We conducted a comprehensive and systematic analysis of the factors relevant to DLE. Ultimately, we identified sex, age, BMI, neck circumference, MMI, inter-incisor gap, hyomental distance, thyromental distance, sternomental distance, and flexion-extension angle as factors highly correlated with DLE.

Objective To observe the effect of immersion virtual reality (IVR) training combined with occupational therapy (OT) in the treatment of stroke patients with unilateral neglect. Methods Fifty stroke patients with unilateral neglect in Shanghai Fourth Rehabilitation Hospital were randomly divided into IVR plus OT group and OT group, with 25 cases in each group. The OT group received conventional OT for unilateral neglect, and the IVR plus OT group received IVR training and OT. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks. Before and after treatment, the Catherine Bergego Scale (CBS), line cancellation test, star cancellation test, and drawing clock test were used to evaluate unilateral neglect symptoms; the Fugl-Meyer Assessment for Upper Extremity (FMA-UE) and Barthel index (BI) were used to evaluate motor function of upper extremity and activities of daily living. Results After treatment, the results of CBS, line cancellation test, star cancellation test, drawing clock test, FMA-UE and BI scores were significantly improved when compared with those before treatment in both groups, and the improvement effects in the IVR plus OT group were significantly better than those in the OT group (P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Conclusion IVR training combined with OT can improve unilateral neglect symptoms, motor function of affected upper extremity, and activities of daily living in stroke patients.

In this paper, the clinical case, pathological and immunohistochemical analyses were performed on 10 patients with intrathyroidal thymic carcinoma admitted to our hospital.Combined with relevant literature, it was found that tumour cells expressing CD5 and CD117 had differential diagnostic significance. Surgical resection of the tumour was the first choice for treatment, whether radiotherapy, chemotherapy and monotherapy were administered remained controversial.

Objective:To report 2 young infants of sodium channel related epilepsy with SCN2A gene mutation, and to discuss the clinical characteristics of the disease and the efficacy and safety of lacosamide combined with the literature.Methods:Corresponding information of 2 children hospitalized in the Department of Neurology of Hunan Children′s Hospital in July 2021 and October 2021 was collected, including the symptoms, comprehensive physical examination, blood, cerebrospinal fluid, imaging, electrophysiological examination, diagnosis and treatment process, response to treatment and other clinical data, as well as the sequencing results of the whole exome of the children. The efficacy and safety of lacosamide were analyzed, and the related literatures of the Biomedical Literature Database, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform and Chinese Knowledge Infrastructure Database were searched and reviewed.Results:Both of the 2 cases were girl. Their onset age was within 3 months. The initial symptoms were frequent convulsions and backward development. There was no structural abnormality in the head image. The convulsions could not be controlled according to conventional multidrug treatment. The seizures were quickly controlled with lacosamide. Now they have been followed up for 6 months. No obvious adverse reactions were found. Case 1 gene test results showed the SCN2A gene (chr2:166152333-166246334) heterozygous deletion, SCN1A gene (chr2:166847754-16693013) heterozygous deletion, the deletion size being about 5.72 Mb. Case 2 gene test results showed new missense mutation of SCN2A (c.1285G>A, p.Glu429Lys). There were dozens of seizures every day. They were treated with valproic acid, oxcarbazepine and levetiracetam successively. The seizures could not be controlled. Three focal seizures originated in the left temporal region were detected by electroencephalogram. There was no recurrence on the third day after adding lacosamide, and there was no attack after 5 months of follow-up. No obvious adverse reactions were found during follow-up.Conclusions:Sodium channel related epileptic encephalopathy often starts early, has frequent seizures, and can be accompanied by backward psychomotor development at the same time. The slow sodium channel blocker lacosamide has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of sodium channel-related epilepsy with SCN2A gene mutation or combined SCN1A gene mutation.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors related to extrathyroidal extension (ETE) of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) and the specific effects on the prognosis.Methods:The clinical data of 592 patients with newly diagnosed DTC admitted to our hospital from Jun. 2015 to Jun. 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The data including the maximum tumor diameter and lymph node metastasis were collected, and the survival data were followed up. Chi-square test and Logistic regression were used to analyze the risk factors associated with ETE. Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional risk model were used to analyze the effect of ETE on disease-free survival.Results:There were 100 ETE of 592 DTC patients (16.9%) . Univariate analysis showed that the risk factors for ETE were the largest tumor diameter ≥2 cm, multiple lesions, and lymph node metastasis in the lateral cervical region ( P<0.01) . The follow-up time was 29 to 64 months, and the median follow-up time was 60 months. The 3-year and 5-year DFS rates of patients with DTC and ETE were 86.9% and 83.2% respectively, which were significantly lower than those of patients without ETE ( P<0.001) . Univariate analysis showed that ETE ( P<0.001) was a risk factor for postoperative recurrence in patients with DTC. Cox multivariate regression showed that ETE (HR: 10.564, 95% CI 3.712-30.063, P<0.001) was an independent risk factor for postoperative recurrence in patients with DTC. Conclusions:DTC accompanied by ETE is associated with risk factors such as large tumor diameter and multiple lesions, which has a lower 5-year DFS. Patients with the above characteristics should consider the possibility of ETE before surgery, and focus on long-term follow-up after surgery.

The liposome transfection was conducted by LipofectamineTM3000. The targeted relationship between miR-497 and YAP1 was validated by Luciferase Reporter Assay. The cell proliferation activity in each group was detected by MTT method. The apoptosis rates were analyzed by flow cytometry. The number of invasion cells was detected by Transwell. The cell migration rates were detected by scratch assay. The expression of Cyclin D1, matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) , MMP-9, matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor-1 (TIMP-1) and activated caspase 3 (cleaved Caspase-3) was detected by Western blot. SPSS 22.0 was used to analyze data, and normally distributed measurement data were expressed as ( ± s) . One-way ANOVA was analyzed for the difference between multiple groups, and SNK-q were analyzed for the difference between two groups. Results:Compared with the control group, the expression of YAP1 mRNA and protein was decreased in miR-497 group and si-YAP1 group ( q=14.682, 14.597; 23.743, 23.571; P<0.05) , cell proliferation activity, number of invasion cells and migration rate were decreased ( q=4.724, 4.568, 3.841; 4.216, 3.952, 3.274; P<0.05) , apoptosis rate was increased ( q=3.783; 4.336; P<0.05) , expression of CyclinD1, MMP-2, MMP-9 and cleared Caspase-3 proteins was decreased ( q=5.823, 5.981, 6.036, 6.485; 5.934, 6.110, 6.573, 6.614; P<0.05) , and expression of TIMP-1 protein was increased ( q=6.071; 6.148; P<0.05) . Compared with si-YAP1 group, miR-497 level was increased in miR-497+si-YAP1 group ( q=14.726, P<0.05) , the expression of YAP1 mRNA and protein was decreased ( q=3.089, 3.126; P<0.05) , cell proliferation activity, number of invasion cells and migration rate were decreased ( q=2.654, 2.537, 2.246; P<0.05) , apoptosis rate was increased ( q=2.875, P<0.05) , expression of CyclinD1, MMP-2, MMP-9 and cleared Caspase-3 proteins was decreased ( q=4.371, 4.365, 4.383, 4.368; P<0.05) , and expression of TIMP-1 protein was increased ( q=4.275, P<0.05) . Conclusion:MiR-497 can negatively targetingly regulate the expression of YAP1, inhibit proliferation, invasion and migration of TPC-1 cells.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of medullary thyroid carcinoma(MTC) and the risk factors of cervical lymph node metastasis.Methods A retrospective analysis of 84 cases of thyroid surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Jan.2012 to Jun.2018 and confirmed by routine pathology as MTC patients was performed.Chi-square test and logistic regression were used to analyze patients' age,gender,clinical features such as tumor diameter,number of lesions,and invasion of the capsule and risk factors associated with cervical lymph node metastasis.Results Statistical analysis found that the incidence of lymph node metastasis significantly increased in patients with central region ≥ 1 cm (x2=4.196,P=0.041),multiple lesions (x2=5.946,P=0.015),and thyroid capsule invasion (x2=15.277,P＜0.001) and the difference was statistically significant.The incidence of cervical lymph node metastasis was significantly higher in patients with the tumor diameter ≥ 1 cm(x2=5.269,P=0.022),multiple lesions(x2=4.550,P=0.033),and thyroid capsule invasion(x2=19.253,P＜0.001) and the difference was statistically significant.Logistic regression analysis showed that thyroid capsule invasion was an independent risk factor for central lymph node metastasis (OR=7.551,P=0.001) and cervical lymph node metastasis (OR=8.067,P＜0.001).Of the 84 patients who received calcitonin before surgery,56 patients had preoperative calcitonin＞200 pg/ml,and the cervical lymph node metastasis rate was 55.4％ (31/56).28 patients had preoperative calcitonin＜200 pg/ml,and the cervical lymph node metastasis rate was 28.6％ (8/28).The former increased and the difference was statistically significant.Of the 18 patients who underwent preoperative detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA),8 patients had CEA＞30 ng/ml,cervical lymph node metastasis was 75％ (6/8);10 patients had CEA＜30 ng/ml,and the cervical lymph node metastasis was 60％(6/10).Conclusions Higher cervical lymph node metastasis is a clinical feature of MTC.For patients with thyroid capsule invasion,the risk of cervical lymph node metastasis is significantly increased,and prophylactic cervical lymph node dissection is required.Preoperative detection of calcitonin and CEA can be used to diagnose MTC and predict lymph node metastasis.The cervical lymph node dissection can be considered with reference to the concentration.

Objective To investigate the clinical prognostic features of pediatric differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).Methods A retrospective analysis of clinical data of 56 cases of pediatric differentiated thyroid carcinoma under 14 years old admitted in our hospital from Aug.2009 to Oct.2018 was performed.KaplanMeier method and COX proportional hazards model were used to analyze the factors affecting the disease-free survival of patients.Results The follow-up period was from 6 months to 82 months,and the median follow-up time was 28 months.Recurrence occurred in 15 patients,with a survival rate of 100％.The 3-and 5-year disease-free survival rate was 67.4％ and 63.5％.Univariate analysis showed that tumor diameter ＞2 cm (P=0.046),multiple lesions (P＜0.001),cervical lymph node metastasis (P=0.008),and extra thyroidal extension (ETE) (P=0.035) were related factors affecting postoperative recurrence,while gender,age,Hashimoto's thyroiditis,tumor TNM stage,central lymph node metastasis and surgical approach were not related to postoperative recurrence.COX multivariate analysis showed that multiple lesions (HR:8.815,P=0.010) was the independent factor influencing the prognosis of pediatric differentiated thyroid carcinoma.Conclusions Multiple lesion is an independent influencing factor for the recurrence of pediatric differentiated thyroid carcinoma patients after surgery.Meanwhile,total thyroidectomy and long-term follow-up should be followed.Although the metastasis rate of lymph node and distant organ are high,overall prognosis is good in pediatric DTC.
