Objective:To explore the consistency of claudin 18.2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) using 4 different clone antibodies in gastric adenocarcinoma.Methods:A total of 226 gastric adenocarcinomas diagnosed and treated at the Drum Tower Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University Medical College between January 2022 to March 2023 were included in this study. The cohort consisted of 165 males and 61 females, with a mean age of (61.3±12.1) years. Tumor tissues from radical resection specimens were collected for tissue microarrays. IHC detection of claudin 18.2 was performed using the EnVision method, utilizing 4 clones of antibody: OTIR157B5, 43-14A, EPR19202 and D313D22. The results were interpreted based on both the intensity of staining on tumor cell membranes and the percentage of positive tumor cells relative to the total tumor cells.Results:The positive cutoff value was set as moderately to strongly linear membrane staining in ≥75% of all viable invasive tumor cells, and clone OTIR157B5 demonstrated the highest positive expression rate at 52.2% (118/226). Additionally, the clones OTIR157B5, 43-14A, and EPR19202 were consistently and strongly positive, with all agreement rates of Cohen κ exceeding 0.8. In gastric adenocarcinoma and its three Lauren subtypes, OTIR157B5 exhibited clear membranous localization.Conclusions:Clone OTIR157B5 of claudin 18.2 antibody shows the highest rate of moderately to strongly linear membrane-positive staining, accounting for ≥75% of all viable invasive tumor cells, and clones 43-14A and EPR19202 show strong consistency and high sensitivity.

Objective:To investigate the neural regulatory mechanism of parvalbumin-positive interneurons(PV-INs)in the dentate gyrus(DG)involved in the impairment of spatial recognition memory by exercise-induced chronic fatigue.Methods:Male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were divided into control group and fatigue group by random num-ber method.A three-level incremental load treadmill training program was selected to establish a chronic exhaustion exercise fatigue model.The spatial recognition memory ability of rats was tested by novel object recognition test.The ac-tivation levels and quantitative changes of astrocytes(AS)and PV-INs in the DG region was observed and quantified through immunofluorescence staining and immunohistochemical staining.The phosphorylation level of calcium/calmodu-lin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ(CaMK Ⅱ)in the hippocampus was detected by Western blot.Results:In the test of novel object recognition,the exploration time of novel object was reduced in the fatigue group,and the discrimination index was significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.01).Immunohistochemical staining showed that PV-INs in the DG region of fatigue rats were lighter and fewer than those in the control group,the fibers were short and sparse,and the positive cell density and average optical density of cells were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.01).Immunofluorescence staining showed that AS was significantly activated,glial fibrillary acidic pro-tein(GFAP)was stained deeply,and the cell processes were dense and elongated in the DG region of fatigue rats.The positive cell density and mean fluorescence intensity were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.01).The results of Western blot showed that the phosphorylation level of CaMK Ⅱ protein in the hippocampus of the fatigue group was significantly reduced than that of the control group(P＜0.01).Conclusion:Exercise-induced chro-nic fatigue inhibited PV-INs in the rat hippocampal DG region.The excessive activation of AS following exercise fatigue may be a major contributor to this PV-INs suppression.Concurrently,reduced phosphorylation levels of CaMK Ⅱ protein were observed in hippocampal tissue.These alterations ultimately impaired spatial recognition memory in the rats.

Objective To explore the effect of bionic electrical stimulation(BES)combined with resistance tightening leg training on postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction(PFD).Methods A total of 205 patients with PFD were divided into the BES group(n=102)and the combined group(n=103)by random number table method.All subjects received routine pelvic floor muscle training.In addition,the BES group was treated with BES intervention,and the combined group was treated with BES combined with resistance tightening leg training,with 8 weeks of treatment.The classification of pelvic floor muscle strength,electrophysiological indexes of pelvic floor function,urodynamics and stress urinary incontinence(SUI)classification/pelvic organ prolapse(POP)degree were compared between the two groups before and after treatment.Results After treatment,the pelvic floor muscle strength classification,SUI classification and POP degree in the combined group were significantly better than those in the BES group(P<0.05).After treatment,ClassⅠ/ClassⅡmuscle fiber fatigue,vaginal dynamic pressure and maximal electromyography(EMG)value of fast muscle in the combined group were(-1.20±0.35)%,(-0.90±0.30)%,(76.30±5.51)cmH2 O,(43.00±5.82)μV,respectively,which were all significantly higher than those in the BES group(P<0.05).After treatment,the indexes of urodynamics in both groups were significantly improved,and the combined group was better than the BES group(P<0.05).Conclusions BES combined with resistance tightening leg training can significantly improve pelvic floor muscle strength,muscle fiber fatigue and urodynamics in patients with PFD,thus alleviating SUI/POP symptoms.

Objective:To investigate the central regulatory mechanisms underlying depression-like behavior induced by exercise fatigue in rats.Methods:Male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into a control group and a fatigue group.The exercise-induced fatigue model was established by a three-level incremental load treadmill training protocol.The sucrose preference test(SPT)was conducted to evaluate depressive-like behavior in the rats.Following the behavioral testing,Immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the expression of substance P(SP)and the activation level of microglia(MG)in the CA1 region of the hippocampus.Additionally,Western Blot were performed to observe the hippocampal phosphorylation level of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(p38 MAPK).Results:The SPT revealed that the sucrose preference rate of rats in the fatigue group was significantly lower than that of the control group(P＜0.01);Immunohistochemical staining showed that the expression level of SP in the hippocampal CA1 region of rats in the fatigue group was significantly increased compared with that of the control group(P＜0.01),and accom-panied by a significant increase in the activation level of MG in the hippocampal CA1(P＜0.05).In addition,West-ern Blot results indicated that exercise-induced fatigue led to a significant increase in the p-p38 MAPK/p38 MAPK val-ues in the hippocampus of rats(P＜0.01).Conclusion:The development of depressive-like behavior induced by exer-cise-induced fatigue is associated with upregulated SP secretion and excessive MG activation in the hippocampal CA1 region.The activation of the p38 MAPK pathway may be a regulatory mechanism underlying the adverse mood states caused by exercise-induced fatigue.

Objective To analyze the effects of massage therapy on the inflammatory state and lung function of pediatric refractory Mycoplasma pneumonia (RMPP). Methods A total of 320 children with RMPP treated in Hebei Seventh People′s Hospital from September 2022 to August 2023 were selected in the study. According to different treatment methods, they were divided into two groups, with 160 cases in each group. The western medicine group was given conventional anti-inflammatory and other symptomatic treatment, while the massage group was given dialectical massage treatment based on the western medicine group. The clinical efficacy, duration of disappearance of clinical symptoms, pulmonary function indexes, serum inflammatory factors, immune function indexes and total incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results The total effective rate of massage group was higher than that of control group (P < 0.05). The disappearance time of fever, cough, sputum and lung moist rales in observation group was shorter than that in control group (P < 0.05). After treatment, the peak expiratory flow (PEF), maximum mid-expiratory flow (MMEF) and forced vital capacity (FVC) in the massage group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The levels of serum C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the massage group were lower than those in the control group after treatment (P < 0.05). After treatment, CD3⁺, CD4⁺, CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in the massage group were higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05), and CD8⁺ was lower than that in the control group (P < 0.05). There was nosignificant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the massage group and the western medicine group (P>0.05). Conclusion Massage based on syndrome differentiation combined with western medicine can effectively relieve fever, cough and other symptoms of RMPP children, reduce inflammatory response, improve lung function and immune function, and has less adverse reactions.
