OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship of long non-coding RNA （LncRNA） metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 （MALAT1） and doxorubicin （DOX） resistance in osteosarcoma （OS） cells. METHODS MG-63 and MG-63/DOX cells were treated with different concentrations of DOX （0， 0.01， 0.05， 0.1， 1 μmol/L）， and survival rates and half maximal inhibitory concentration were determined using CCK-8 assay. The expressions of LncRNA MALAT1 in MG-63 and MG-63/ DOX cells were detected by real-time quantitative fluorescence PCR. MG-63/DOX cells were divided into Control group， knocking down LncRNA MALAT1 negative control （sh-NC） group， sh-MALAT1 group， sh-MALAT1+anti-NC group， and sh-MALAT1+ anti-miR-154-5p group. The expressions of LncRNA MALAT1， miR-154-5p and cyclin D1 （CCND1） mRNA in MG-63/DOX cells of each group were detected. The effects of knocking down LncRNA MALAT1 on the proliferation， migration， invasion， and apoptosis of MG-63/DOX cells were detected by CCK-8 assay， scratch test， Transwell experiment and flow cytometry， respectively. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear protein （PCNA） and CCND1 protein in MG-63/DOX cells was detected by Western blot assay. Interactions between LncRNA MALAT1 and miR-154-5p， miR-154-5p and CCND1 were detected by dual luciferase reporter gene experiment. RESULTS Compared with 0 μmol/L DOX， 0.01， 0.05， 0.1 and 1 μmol/L DOX could reduce the survival rates of MG-63 and MG-63/DOX cells （except for 0.01 μmol/L DOX） （P＜0.05）， IC50 were 0.07 and 0.13 μmol/L， respectively. The survival rate， cell migration number and invasion number of MG-63/DOX cells， scratch closure rate， mRNA expressions of LncRNA MALAT1， mRNA and protein expressions of CCND1， and PCNA protein expression in sh-MALAT1 group were significantly lower than sh-NC group and Control group； the apoptosis rate and miR-154-5p expression were significantly higher than sh-NC group and Control group （P＜0.05）. sh-MALAT1+anti-miR-154-5p group was able to reverse the aforementioned biological effects in sh-MALAT1 group （P＜0.05）. In MG-63/DOX cells transfected with both MALAT1-wild type （WT） and CCND1-WT， the luciferase activity in the miR-154-5p mimic group was significantly lower than mimic negative control group （P＜ 0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Knocking down LncRNA MALAT1 can inhibit the DOX resistance of OS cells， and its mechanism may be targeting the miR-154-5p/CCND1 axis.

OBJECTIVE To construct and evaluate nomogram prediction model for refractory chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting （CINV）. METHODS The data of malignant tumor patients who received chemotherapy at the Third People’s Hospital of Zhengzhou from January 2017 to December 2023 were collected. These patients were categorized into the occurrence group and the non-occurrence group according to the occurrence of refractory CINV. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was employed to screen predictive factors for refractory CINV and constructing a nomogram prediction model. Model performance was assessed via receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. Model calibration was evaluated using Bootstrap resampling. Decision curve analysis （DCA） was used to determine the clinical net benefit of three strategies under different risk thresholds. Clinical impact curves were utilized to assess the clinical value of the model at different risk thresholds. Shapley additive explanations （SHAP） analysis was performed to evaluate individual factor contributions to the predictive model. RESULTS A total of 388 patients were included， with 219 experiencing refractory CINV. Multivariate Logistic regression identified 11 predictive factors for refractory CINV， including gastrointestinal disease history， anticipated nausea and vomiting， chemotherapy-induced emetic risk classification， and electrolyte levels， etc. The model’s area under the curve was 0.80 [95% confidence interval （0.76， 0.84）]， with a mean error of 0.036. DCA demonstrated the prediction model had higher clinical net benefit when the risk threshold was between 0.05 and 0.85. SHAP analysis revealed the top three predictive factors as gastrointestinal disease history （0.924）， chemotherapy- induced emetic risk classification （0.866）， and electrolyte levels （0.581）. CONCLUSIONS Eleven factors， including gastrointestinal disease history， anticipated nausea and vomiting， chemotherapy-induced emetic risk classification， and electrolyte levels， are identified as predictors of refractory CINV. The model based on these factors has good predictive ability， which can be used to predict the risk of refractory CINV.

BACKGROUND: Over 20 million colonoscopies are performed in China annually. An automatic clinical decision support system (CDSS) with accurate semantic recognition of colonoscopy reports and guideline-based is helpful to relieve the increasing medical burden and standardize the healthcare. In this study, the CDSS was built under a hierarchical-label interpretable classification framework, trained by a state-of-the-art transformer-based model, and validated in a multi-center style. METHODS: We conducted stratified sampling on a previously established dataset containing 302,965 electronic colonoscopy reports with pathology, identified 2041 patients' records representative of overall features, and randomly divided into the training and testing sets (7:3). A total of five main labels and 22 sublabels were applied to annotate each record on a network platform, and the data were trained respectively by three pre-training models on Chinese corpus website, including bidirectional encoder representations from transformers (BERT)-base-Chinese (BC), the BERT-wwm-ext-Chinese (BWEC), and ernie-3.0-base-zh (E3BZ). The performance of trained models was subsequently compared with a randomly initialized model, and the preferred model was selected. Model fine-tuning was applied to further enhance the capacity. The system was validated in five other hospitals with 3177 consecutive colonoscopy cases. RESULTS: The E3BZ pre-trained model exhibited the best performance, with a 90.18% accuracy and a 69.14% Macro-F1 score overall. The model achieved 100% accuracy in identifying cancer cases and 99.16% for normal cases. In external validation, the model exhibited favorable consistency and good performance among five hospitals. CONCLUSIONS The novel CDSS possesses high-level semantic recognition of colonoscopy reports, provides appropriate recommendations, and holds the potential to be a powerful tool for physicians and patients. The hierarchical multi-label strategy and pre-training method should be amendable to manage more medical text in the future.

Objective:To examine the effect of short-term regular aerobic exercise on physical fitness of children with pulmonary with atresia ventricular septal defect after radical biventricular treatment.Methods:This was a prospective self pre-and post-control observation study. The subjects performed regular aerobic exercise for 10 days according to the exercise prescription. Body composition measurement and cardiopulmonary exercise test[lung ventilation function, maximum oxygen uptake(VO 2max), maximum oxygen pulse(O 2/HR max), ventilation oxygen uptake efficiency(OUES), exercise load time], 6 min walking distance(6MWD), sports psychometric test, motor function screening test and fitness test, were collected. The changes of test parameters and scale scoring before and after exercise were analyzed and compared. Results:A total of 7 children with PA/VSD after biventricular surgery were enrolled. The age ranged 8.2-16.2 years old, and there were 2 males and 5 females. VO 2max[(1 196.71±395.31)ml/min vs.(1 297.43±425.73)ml/min, P=0.031], O 2/HRmax[(82.43±7.53)ml/beat vs.(91.57±6.95)ml/beat, P<0.001]increased after exercise. The exercise load time was significantly increased compared with that before intervention[(476.43±35.73)s vs.(531.43±45.76)s, P=0.002]. Resting heart rate before exercise( P=0.013) and peak respiration exchange ratio(PeakRER, P=0.021) were significantly lower. Body composition tests suggest weight, intracellular water, protein and muscle content of lower limb were higher( P<0.05). The motor function score was higher than before( P=0.015); the score of sports fear was lower than before( P=0.009). There was no significant difference in lung capacity and 6-minute walking distance before and after exercise( P>0.05). There were no cardiovascular events during the study period. Conclusion:Short-term regular aerobic exercise for children with PA/VSD after biventricular surgery can improve exercise tolerance, increase lower limb muscle content, improve exercise fear and exercise function, and has good safety and feasibility.

Objective:To explore the severe complications, such as blindness, brain infarction and even death caused by cosmetic autologous fat filler injection and their underlying mechanisms.Methods:From May 2022 to October 2023, 64 male New Zealand rabbits were selected in the clinical laboratory of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine and divided into 8 groups with 8 rabbits in each group. They were divided into grinding fat group, fat granule group, fat lipid group and normal saline group, and each group was further divided into 0.2 ml group and 0.4 ml group. Fat was cut from the rabbit groin, then chopped or treated with collagenase I, and centrifuged to separate fat lipids and fat particles, as well as other tissues. The rabbit facial artery was exposed along the incision below the mandibular angle, and 0.2 or 0.4 ml of chopped fat, fat particles, and lipids were retrogradely injected into the facial artery in each group, and then the incision was closed under the microscope. Ophthalmic and neurological symptoms were observed and recorded after surgery, and visual electrophysiology and fundus microscopy were performed to verify visual acuity and fundus artery obstruction.Results:Two weeks after surgery, the incidence of ophthalmic symptoms in the 0.2 ml injection group was 100% in the grinding fat group, 62.5% in the fat granule group, 0 in the lipid group and 0 in the normal saline group. The complication rates of 0.4 ml embolic injection were 100%, 87.50%, 12.5% and 0, respectively. The incidence of neurological symptoms was 62.5%, 25.0%, 0 and 0, respectively. Mortality rates were 37.5%, 12.5%, 0 and 0 after injection of 0.2 ml, and 100%, 50%, 0 and 0 after injection of 0.4 ml, respectively.Conclusions:Animal models have shown that grinding adipose tissue without collagenase I treatment is more likely to cause serious complications, simple lipid entry into blood vessels does not block relevant arteries, and fat volume is positively correlated with the incidence of postoperative complications.

Objective:To analyze the situation of intestinal bacterial infections and drug resistance in children,and provide reference for the rational use of drugs in the treatment of bacterial enteritis.Methods:We collected cases of diarrhea in children admitted to the outpatient and inpatient departments of Kunming Children's Hospital from January 2014 to December 2022,whose fecal samples was detected pathogenic bacteria.The drug resistance of pathogenic bacteria was analyzed.Results:A total of 10 233 children with diarrhea were tested for fecal samples,and 595 cases of pathogenic bacteria were detected through fecal culture,with a detection rate of 5.8%.Among them,456 cases of Salmonella were detected,accounting for 76.6%.There were 128(21.5%) cases of Shigella genus,of which Shigella flexneri was the main subset(58.6%).The distribution of departments was most common in the gastroenterology department,followed by the infectious disease wards.The seasonal distribution of bacterial enteritis showed that the incidence was high in summer and autumn.Infants and young children under three years old was found have the highest incidence.The drug sensitivity results showed that Salmonella and Shigella had high resistance to penicillin and aminoglycosides,and were highly sensitive to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,quinolones,and carbapenems; Cephalosporins had good antibacterial activity against Salmonella,with a resistance rate of 12.9% to 32.7%.However,the overall resistance rate of Salmonella to ceftriaxone and ceftazidime was on the rise.Cefotaxime and cefepime had good antibacterial activity against Shigella,but Shigella had a high resistance rate of 95.0% to ceftriaxone.Conclusion:Salmonella is the main pathogen causing bacterial diarrhea in Kunming region,with the highest incidence in infants and young children under the age of three.The resistance rate of Salmonella to ceftriaxone is on the rise,and it is highly sensitive to amoxicillin/clavulanic acid,quinolones,and carbapenems.This can provide local medication references for primary clinical pediatricians when they cannot obtain the results of bacterial culture drug sensitivity.

Objective:To investigate the value of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), pediatric sequential organ failure assessment (pSOFA) and pediatric critical illness score (PCIS) in predicting mortality of pediatric sepsis in pediatric intensive care units (PICU) from Southwest China.Methods:This was a prospective multicenter observational study. A total of 447 children with sepsis admitted to 12 PICU in Southwest China from April 2022 to March 2023 were enrolled. Based on the prognosis, the patients were divided into survival group and non-survival group. The physiological parameters of SIRS, pSOFA and PCIS were recorded and scored within 24 h after PICU admission. The general clinical data and some laboratory results were recorded. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to compare the predictive value of SIRS, pSOFA and PCIS in mortality of pediatric sepsis.Results:Amongst 447 children with sepsis, 260 patients were male and 187 patients were female, aged 2.5 (0.8, 7.0) years, 405 patients were in the survival group and 42 patients were in the non-survival group. 418 patients (93.5%) met the criteria of SIRS, and 440 patients (98.4%) met the criteria of pSOFA≥2. There was no significant difference in the number of items meeting the SIRS criteria between the survival group and the non-survival group (3(2, 4) vs. 3(3, 4) points, Z=1.30, P=0.192). The pSOFA score of the non-survival group was significantly higher than that of the survival group (9(6, 12) vs. 4(3, 7) points, Z=6.56, P<0.001), and the PCIS score was significantly lower than that of the survival group (72(68, 81) vs. 82(76, 88) points, Z=5.90, P<0.001). The predictive value of pSOFA (AUC=0.82) and PCIS (AUC=0.78) for sepsis mortality was significantly higher than that of SIRS (AUC=0.56) ( Z=6.59, 4.23, both P<0.001). There was no significant difference between pSOFA and PCIS ( Z=1.35, P=0.176). Platelet count, procalcitonin, lactic acid, albumin, creatinine, total bilirubin, activated partial thromboplastin time, prothrombin time and international normalized ratio were all able to predict mortality of sepsis to a certain degree (AUC=0.64, 0.68, 0.80, 0.64, 0.68, 0.60, 0.77, 0.75, 0.76, all P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with SIRS, both pSOFA and PCIS had better predictive value in the mortality of pediatric sepsis in PICU.

Objective: To explore the differences in the gut microbiota of primary school students with different levels of sugar sweetened beverage intake, so as to provide scientific evidence for better identification of health risks in children and the development of targeted health policies. Methods: In June 2022, a total of 192 healthy primary school students from Chengdu were selected using a stratified cluster random sampling method. The sugar sweetened beverage intake was assessed through a dietary frequency questionnaire. Based on the median daily sugar sweetened beverage intake, primary school students were categorized into a low intake group ( n =96) and a high intake group ( n =96). The gut microbiota in fresh fecal samples from the two groups of primary school students was analyzed using 16S rRNA high throughput sequencing, and the diversity and community structure differences in the gut microbiota were compared. Results: Children in the low intake group had a sugar sweetened beverage intake of (21.3±1.6) mL/d, while the high intake group had an intake of (269.6±37.3) mL/d. Diversity analysis results showed that there were no statistically significant differences between the low intake and the high intake group in terms of α diversity metrics: Observed_otus index [298.50 (259.75, 342.25), 305.50 (244.25, 367.75)], Goods_coverage index [1.00 (1.00, 1.00), 1.00 (1.00, 1.00)], Chao index [304.18 (260.75, 348.78), 305.88 (245.68, 370.88)], Shannon index [5.88 (5.29, 6.45), 5.71 (4.89, 6.28)] and Simpson index [0.95 (0.91, 0.97), 0.94 (0.88, 0.97)] ( Z =-0.64, -0.76, -0.54, -1.76, -1.67, P >0.05). Furthermore, no statistically significant difference was observed in β diversity between the two groups ( R 2=0.006, P >0.05). At the genus level, the abundance of Blautia [0.033 (0.018, 0.055)] and Fusicatenibacter [0.009 (0.005, 0.015)] were higher in the low intake group compared to the high intake group [0.024 (0.013, 0.041),0.006 (0.003, 0.011)]and differences were statistically significant ( Z =-2.52, -2.81, P <0.05). LEfSe analysis highlighted intergroup differences primarily in Blautia, Fusicatenibacter and Sarcina( LDA= 3.56,3.12,3.53, P <0.05). Conclusions There is no significant difference in the diversity and overall structure of the gut microbiota in primary school students with different levels of sugar sweetened beverage intake. However, there are species variations at the genus level. The information can serve as a scientific basis for identifying health risks in primary school students and formulating targeted health strategies.

Objective To detect the expressions of intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and nu-clear factor(NF)-κB in hepatic tissues of the patients with chronic hepatitis B,and to analyze their correlation with the hepatic inflammatory activity and fibrosis degree.Methods The liver biopsy specimens from 66 pa-tients with hepatitis B and 10 non-hepatopathic controls were selected,and immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization were used to detect ICAM-1 and NF-κB expression levels in different liver tissues.Results The positive rate of ICAM-1 and NF-κB expression in liver tissues of the patients with chronic hepatitis B was higher than that in normal liver tissues,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The expres-sion of ICAM-1 and NF-κB in the patients with hepatitis B was positively correlated with the inflammatory ac-tivity and fibrosis degree(r=0.493,0.496,P＜0.01;r=0.580,0.519,P＜0.01).Conclusion ICAM-1 and NF-κB in the patients with chronic hepatitis B are highly expressed,which is useful in judging the hepatic in-flammatory activity and fibrosis degree.
