Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of tripartite motif-containing 25 (TRIM25) on the replication of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) in cells and its molecular mechanism.Methods:Human glioma cells (U251 cells) and Kunming mice were infected with JEV, and then the cells and brain tissue samples were collected. The transcription levels of six TRIM genes were detected by real-time PCR, and the expression of TRIM25 in cells was detected by Western blot. U251 and A549 cells overexpressed with TRIM25 and U251 cells knocked out with TRIM25 gene were constructed. Cells were infected with JEV, and the replication of JEV was detected by viral plaque assay, real-time PCR and Western blot. The interaction of TRIM25 with viral proteins was investigated by co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) and indirect immunofluorescence assay. The expression of IFN-β in overexpressed TRIM25 cells was detected by real-time PCR and ELISA.Results:JEV infection promoted the expression of TRIM25 in cells and mouse brain tissues. TRIM25 overexpression restricted JEV replication in U251 and A549 cells, while TRIM25 knockout enhanced JEV replication. TRIM25 overexpression upregulated the level of IFN-β in cells. TRIM25 interacted with JEV capsid protein and promoted the degradation of capsid protein.Conclusion:TRIM25 can inhibit the replication of JEV in cells by upregulating IFN-β and promoting the degradation of JEV C protein.

Objective:To develop a rapid, sensitive, and quantitative method for detecting Klebsiella pneumoniae using digital loop-mediated isothermal amplification(LAMP)-CRISPR/Cas12b. Methods:Five LAMP primers targeting the Kp-1 gene of Klebsiella pneumoniae and guide RNA (gRNA) for Cas12b were designed. The digital LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12b reaction mixture included 1×WarmStart ? LAMP master mix, 1×LAMP primers, 250 nmol/L Cas12b, 250 nmol/L gRNA, 3 μmol/L ssDNA reporter, 1 000 U/ml RNase inhibitor, 4 mmol/L Mg 2+, and DEPC water. After preparing the digital chip, it was incubated at 60℃ for one hour. Fluorescence distribution was then detected using a biochip analyzer to calculate the input DNA concentration. The specificity of the method was tested using genomic DNA from seven pathogenic microorganisms. The quantitative performance was assessed using serial dilutions of Klebsiella pneumoniae DNA ranging from 5-500 000 copies/μl. Clinical sputum samples were collected for comparison of quantitative performance with qPCR and qualitative performance with culture methods. Results:The digital LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12b method showed high specificity, yielding negative results for all six non-target pathogens. Quantitative performance tests indicated a sensitivity as low as 5 copies/μl, with a linear dynamic range of 5-50 000 copies/μl ( R2=0.927 4). Clinical sample quantitative testing showed that the correlation coefficient between digital LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12b and qPCR quantification was 0.917 0. Compared with the culture results of 72 samples, this method had a sensitivity of 100% and detected two additional samples with negative culture result, with a specificity of 91%; Compared with the culture method, qPCR had a sensitivity of 96% and a specificity of 83%. These results indicated that the digital LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12b method had good quantitative and qualitative detection performance for clinical sputum samples. Conclusions:This method offers advantages over qPCR, including rapidity, simplicity, and high precision. The digital LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12b method enables absolute quantification of Klebsiella pneumoniae in sputum samples, enhancing the accuracy of early screening for Klebsiella pneumoniae infections. These advantages make digital LAMP-CRISPR/Cas12b technology highly promising for the precise diagnosis of pathogenic microorganisms in field detection, primary healthcare, and resource-limited environments.

BACKGROUND: Our understanding of the correlation between postdischarge cancer and mortality in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) remains incomplete. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationships between postdischarge cancers and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in CAD patients. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort study, 25% of CAD patients without prior cancer history who underwent coronary artery angiography between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2015, were randomly enrolled using SPSS 26.0. Patients were monitored for the incidence of postdischarge cancer, which was defined as cancer diagnosed after the index hospitalization, survival status and cause of death. Cox regression analysis was used to explore the association between postdischarge cancer and all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in CAD patients. RESULTS: A total of 4085 patients were included in the final analysis. During a median follow-up period of 8 years, 174 patients (4.3%) developed postdischarge cancer, and 343 patients (8.4%) died. A total of 173 patients died from cardiovascular diseases. Postdischarge cancer was associated with increased all-cause mortality risk (HR = 2.653, 95% CI: 1.727-4.076, P < 0.001) and cardiovascular mortality risk (HR = 2.756, 95% CI: 1.470-5.167, P = 0.002). Postdischarge lung cancer (HR = 5.497, 95% CI: 2.922-10.343, P < 0.001) and gastrointestinal cancer (HR = 1.984, 95% CI: 1.049-3.750, P = 0.035) were associated with all-cause mortality in CAD patients. Postdischarge lung cancer was significantly associated with cardiovascular death in CAD patients (HR = 4.979, 95% CI: 2.114-11.728, P < 0.001), and cardiovascular death was not significantly correlated with gastrointestinal cancer or other types of cancer. CONCLUSIONS Postdischarge cancer was associated with all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in CAD patients. Compared with other cancers, postdischarge lung cancer had a more significant effect on all-cause mortality and cardiovascular mortality in CAD patients.

Objective:In order to reduce the trauma associated with fetal cardiopulmonary bypass(F-CPB), Our team plans to develop a minimally invasive F-CPB through a small incision in the right axilla. The efficacy of this technique will be verified by using a big experimental animal model, thereby laying the foundation for fetal cardiac surgery supported by F-CPB in the future.Methods:Ten pregnant sheep were divided into F-CPB group(n=5) and control group(n=5). After fasting for 24 h, fetal lambs in the F-CPB group underwent a right axillary incision to establish F-CPB running for 1 h; The control group of fetal lambs only expose heart 1 h without F-CPB. Collect blood sample for laboratory test at the CPB vehicle before(T0), 30 min(T1), and 1 h after F-CPB running(T2) for the F-CPB group and through Superior Vena Cava before(T0), 30 min(T1), and 1 h after F-CPB running(T2) for the control group.Results:The blood routine indicators such as RBC, HCT, and Hb in the F-CPB group of fetal lambs decreased significantly during F-CPB, and their distribution showed significant statistical differences compared with the control group( P<0.05). There were no significant statistical differences in blood gas indicators such as pH, PO 2, PCO 2, and lactate concentration between the F-CPB group and the control group( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the concentration of cTnI in fetal lamb serum at each time point( P>0.05). There were significant statistical differences( P<0.05) in the distribution of fetal lamb Alb, γ-GGT, CK concentration and cholesterol concentration at various time points in the F-CPB group compared with the control group in liver function examination. In addition, the distribution of BUN in fetal lambs showed a significant difference between the two groups( P=0.006). Conclusion:A minimally invasive F-CPB via small incision in the right axilla is safe and feasible. The experimental animal model has demonstrated that this technique has minimal impact on the vital organ functions and internal environment of fetal lambs, thereby laying the foundation for clinical fetal cardiac surgery in the future.

BACKGROUND: Modern acupuncture anesthesia is a combination of Chinese and Western medicine that integrates the theories of acupuncture with anesthesia. However, some clinical studies of acupuncture anesthesia lack specific descriptions of randomization, allocation concealment, and blinding processes, with subsequent systematic reviews indicating a risk of bias. OBJECTIVE: Clinical trial registration is essential for the enhancement of the quality of clinical trials. This study aims to summarize the status of clinical trial registrations for acupuncture anesthesia listed on the World Health Organization International Clinical Trials Registry Platform (ICTRP). SEARCH STRATEGY: We searched the ICTRP for clinical trials related to acupuncture anesthesia registered between January 1, 2001 and May 31, 2023. Additionally, related publications were retrieved from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, China Science and Technology Journal Database, and Wanfang Data. Registrations and publications were analyzed for consistency in trial design characteristics. INCLUSION CRITERIA: Clinical trials that utilized one of several acupuncture-related therapies in combination with pharmacological anesthesia during the perioperative period were eligible for this review. DATA EXTRACTION AND ANALYSIS: Data extracted from articles included type of surgical procedure, perioperative symptoms, study methodology, type of intervention, trial recruitment information, and publication information related to clinical enrollment. RESULTS: A total of 166 trials related to acupuncture anesthesia from 21 countries were included in the analysis. The commonly reported symptoms in the included studies were postoperative nausea and vomiting (19.9%) and postoperative pain (13.3%). The concordance between the publications and the trial protocols in the clinical registry records was poor, with only 31.7% of the studies being fully compatible. Inconsistency rates were high for sample size (39.0%, 16/41), blinding (36.6%, 15/41), and secondary outcome indicators (24.4%, 10/41). CONCLUSION The volume of acupuncture anesthesia clinical trials registered in international trial registries over the last 20 years is low, with insufficient disclosure of results. Postoperative nausea and vomiting as well as postoperative pain, are the most investigated for acupuncture intervention.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of cytoreductive radical prostatectomy (CRP) in patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer, and to assess its impact on progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), as well as the incidence and severity of complications.Methods:A prospective, monocentric non-randomized controlled trial including 80 cases of oligometastatic prostate cancer admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Military Medical University from January 2020 to June 2024 was conducted. There were 40 patients each assigned to CRP group and no local treatment (NLT) group. The study used multivariate analysis to account for potential biases, analyzed the effects of CRP on PFS, OS as well as circulating tumor cell (CTC) and DNA methylation status. Meanwhile, the incidence and severity of complications were recorded. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and t-test was used for inter-group comparison. Count data and rank data were expressed as number of cases and percentage, and Chi-test was used for comparison between groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate PFS and OS, and Log-rank test was used to compare differences between groups. Multivariate analysis was performed using Cox proportional hazard regression model. A time-dependent Cox regression model was used to consider the effect of follow-up time on the results. Results:The PFS and OS in the CRP group were significantly better than those in the NLT group. The PFS rates in CRP group and NLT group at 12 months were 60% and 35% ( P=0.030). The OS rates at 12 months in the CRP group reached 80%, compared to 50% in the NLT group ( P=0.040). The level of CTC in the CRP group decreased from 50 cells/mL at first month to 5 cells/mL at 12th month, and the DNA methylation status decreased from 0.75 at first month to 0.30 at 12th month, which were significantly better than those in the NLT group ( P<0.05). The incidence of complications decreased gradually from first month to 12th month, with the CRP group from 30% to 10%, and the NLT group from 25% to 12% ( P=0.080). Although the severity of complications was slightly higher in the CRP group than in the NLT group at the early stage, the difference in severity gradually narrowed and eventually became similar between the two groups by the 12th month of follow-up. Conclusion:CRP significantly prolonged PFS and OS in patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer, reduced tumor burden, and despite a higher incidence of early complications, overall safety was good.
