Objective:To investigate the expression characteristics of Zeste enhancer of Zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) in breast cancer tissue and its influence on tumor progression and prognosis.Methods:Transcriptome data of breast cancer tissue and normal breast tissue adjacent to cancer as well as clinical data of patients were obtained from the cancer genome atlas (TCGA) database, gene expression comprehensive database and European genome phenotype archives database, and the difference of EZH2 expression was analyzed using TIMER 2.0 platform. The survival information of breast cancer patients was obtained from the Kaplan Meier Plotter database, and the overall survival time, relapse free survival time and distant metastasis free survival time of breast cancer patients with low EZH2 expression and high EZH2 expression were compared. Select 14 nude mice were selected and randomly divided into si-EZH2 group and control group, with 7 mice in each group.MCF7 culture suspensions transfected with EZH2 knockdown plasmid and control plasmid were inoculated for corresponding group. The body mass and tumor volume of two groups of nude mice inoculated with MCF7 cells were compared at different times. On the 28th day, the nude mice were euthanized and the tumors were dissected to compare the tumor mass of the two groups of nude mice. The normally distributed quantitative data was represented by xˉ ± s. Two independent sample t-tests were used for comparison between two groups, repeated measures ANOVA was used for comparison of body mass and tumor volume between two groups of nude mice at different times, and Bonferroni test was used for pairwise comparison. The comparison of survival rates was conducted using log rank test. Results:A total of 1085 breast cancer tissues and 291 normal adjacent breast tissues were included in the TCGA database. EZH2 expression in breast cancer tissues was higher than that in normal adjacent breast tissues ( P<0.05). In the Kaplan Meier Plotter database, the total survival time, relapse free survival time, and distant metastasis free survival time of breast cancer patients in the EZH2 overexpression group were shorter than those in the EZH2 low expression group ( P=0.013, <0.001, <0.001). After 7 days of inoculation with MCF7 culture suspension, significant subcutaneous tumors were observed on the left back of both groups of nude mice. On the first day, there were no statistically significant difference in body mass between the two groups of nude mice ( P>0.05); On day 7, 13, 19, 25, and 28, the body mass and tumor volume of both groups of nude mice gradually increased (nude mouse body mass: within group F=29.31, P<0.001, between groups F=234.32, P<0.001, Finteraction=16.83, P<0.001; Tumor volume: within group F=34.00, P<0.001, between groups F=193.17, P<0.001, Finteraction=35.61, P<0.001). And the body mass of the siEZH2 group nude mice was higher than that of control group (all P<0.05). On days 19, 25, and 28, tumor the volume of the siEZH2 group nude mice was smaller than that of control group (all P<0.05). On the 28th day, the mass of tumors dissected in the siEZH2 group of nude mice was lower than that in the control group [(0.30±0.07) g vs. (0.61±0.14) g, t=5.16, P<0.001]。 Conclusions:EZH2 is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues and is significantly associated with poor prognosis. Knockdown of EZH2 can significantly inhibit the proliferation and tumor formation of breast cancer cells.

Objective:To develop a training program for general practitioners (GPs) on carotid plaque screening using portable intelligent point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS).Methods:A draft training program for GPs on carotid plaque screening using POCUS was initially formulated through focus group discussions involving experts in ultrasonography and general practice. Two rounds of Delphi consultation were conducted with 15 ultrasound experts from 6 secondary and tertiary public hospitals in Shanghai in February and April 2023. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was applied to assign weights to the indicators in the final program.Results:The final program consisted of 4 first-level indicators, 10 second-level indicators, and 47 third-level indicators. Among the first-level indicators,"training objects" had the lowest weight (7.69%), while the other three indicators were equally weighted (30.77% each). The top 3 third-level indicators by combined weight were "mastering key diagnostic points of carotid plaque"(10.26%),"mastering carotid plaque screening using portable POCUS"(6.84%), and "primary care hands-on training sessions"(6.39%).Conclusion:A structured training program for GPs has been successfully developed for carotid plaque screening using portable intelligent POCUS, comprising 4 first-level, 10 second-level, and 47 third-level indicators.

Objective:To investigate the influence of genetic and environmental factors on the clinical characteristics of upper urinary tract calculi in pediatric patients.Methods:This study was a retrospective case series. The clinical data of 179 children under the age of 14 with upper urinary tract calculi treated at Beijing Friendship Hospital，Capital Medical University，from August 2014 to February 2023 were analyzed. There were 121 males（67.60%）and 58 females（32.40%），with a median age at onset of 2.10（1.14，5.17）years. Thirty-three cases（18.44%）had a family history of urinary stone disease. Stone characteristics was defined by CT，with a median stone burden（sum of the diameters of all stones）of 1.3（1.00，1.60）cm. Fifty-four（30.17%）children had staghorn calculi. Multiple stones were present in 92 cases（51.40%），and bilateral stones in 52 cases（29.05%），with hydronephrosis was present in 119 children（66.48%）. The median follow-up time was 67 months，and 36 children（20.11%）experienced stone recurrence. Dietary habits and related information were collected by electronic questionnaire，including a total of 115 children（64.25%）with an unbalanced diet，101（56.42%）with insufficient water intake，and 32 children（17.88%）with a preference for a high-protein diet. Tap water was used as the source of drinking water by 128 patients（71.51%），and 107（59.78%）took dietary supplements. Whole-exome sequencing revealed that 55 children（30.73%）carried pathogenic mutations in stone-related genes. Binary logistic regression was used for univariate analysis of above risk factors. Variables with P < 0.1 in univariate analysis and without multicollinearity were included in multivariate logistic regression to further screen for independent risk factors. Results:Multivariate analysis confirmed that carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 3.06，95% CI 1.25?7.45， P = 0.014）and insufficient water intake（ OR = 3.28，95% CI 1.14?9.47， P = 0.028）were independent risk factors for higher stone burden. A high-protein diet（ OR = 2.40，95% CI 1.03?5.63， P = 0.044），carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 4.57，95% CI 2.21?9.46， P<0.01），and a family history of stones（ OR = 3.18，95% CI 1.28 ~ 7.91， P = 0.013）were independent risk factors for staghorn calculi. Multiple stones were closely associated with a family history of stones（ OR = 2.66，95% CI 1.15-6.17， P = 0.022）and carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 3.22，95% CI 1.60-6.48， P = 0.001）. Moreover，carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 5.19，95% CI 2.52?13.82， P < 0.01）were an independent risk factor for stone recurrence，whereas dietary supplement intake was a protective factor（ OR = 0.26，95% CI 0.11?0.62， P = 0.002）. Conclusions:Genetic and environmental factors play significant roles in the occurrence and development of pediatric upper urinary tract stones. A high-protein diet as well as a positive family history of stones are independent risk factors for staghorn calculi，and insufficient water intake is a critical environmental factor for stone formation，while appropriate use of dietary supplements may help reduce the risk of stone recurrence. Genetic testing indicates that approximately 30% of children carry stone-related pathogenic gene mutations，and these patients prone to severe stone and an increased risk of recurrence.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Neuroform Atlas stent-assisted coil embolization in patients with middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed; the clinical data of 46 patients with middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms accepted Neuroform Atlas stent-assisted coil embolization in First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Beijing Tiantan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University, First Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University and First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2022 to March 2024 were collected. There were 28 ruptured aneurysms (60.87%) and 18 unruptured aneurysms (39.13%). Follow-up was performed for more than 3 months; Raymond-Roy grading was used to evaluate the aneurysm embolization immediately after embolization and during follow-up; perioperative hemorrhagic or ischemic complications were recorded; modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was used to evaluate the prognosis of the patients at discharge and during follow-up (mRS score≤2: good prognosis, and mRS score>2: poor prognosis).Results:Coil embolization was successful in all 46 patients. DSA immediately after embolization showed that 41 patients (89.13%) had completely occluded aneurysms (Raymond-Roy grading I), 2 patients (4.35%) had residual aneurysm neck (Raymond-Roy grading Ⅱ) and 3 patients (6.52%) had partially occluded aneurysms (Raymond-Roy grading Ⅲ). Perioperative complications occurred in 5 patients, including 2 with postoperative cerebral infarction, 1 with hydrocephalus, 1 with postoperative pneumonia leading to respiratory failure, and 1 with stent thrombosis during embolization. Both at discharge and 3 months after embolization, 43 patients (93.48%) had good prognosis and 3 patients (6.52%) had poor prognosis. No obvious ischemic complications (such as stent restenosis) or hemorrhagic complications (such as re-rupture of the aneurysms) were found in all patients. Thirty patients (65.22%) had imaging follow-up for 6-12 months: 26 (86.67%) had Raymond-Roy grading I, 3 (10.00%) had Raymond-Roy grading II, and 1 (3.33%) had Raymond-Roy grading III.Conclusion:Neuroform Atlas stent-assisted coil embolization has good short-term efficacy and high safety in middle cerebral artery bifurcation aneurysms, but long-term follow-up observation is still needed to verify its efficacy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and mechanism of Jingangteng capsules in the treatment of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD）. METHODS Thirty-two SD rats were randomly divided into normal group and modeling group. The modeling group was fed a high-fat diet to establish a NAFLD model. The successfully modeled rats were then randomly divided into model group， atorvastatin group[positive control， 2 mg/（kg·d）]， and Jingangteng capsules low- and high-dose groups [0.63 and 2.52 mg/（kg·d）]， with 6 rats in each group. The pathological changes of the liver were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and oil red O staining. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was performed to determine the serum levels of triglycerides （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， alanine transaminase （ALT）， aspartate transaminase （AST）， tumour necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-6， IL-18. 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing and metabolomics techniques were applied to explore the effects of Jingangteng capsules on gut microbiota and metabolisms in NAFLD rats. Based on the E-mail：591146765@qq.com metabolomics results， Western blot analysis was performed to detect proteins related to the nuclear factor kappa-B （NF-κB）/NOD-like receptor family protein 3 （NLRP3） signaling pathway in the livers of NAFLD rats. RESULTS The experimental results showed that Jingangteng capsules could significantly reduce the serum levels of TG， TC， LDL-C， AST， ALT， TNF-α， IL-1β， IL-6， IL-18， while increased the level of HDL-C， and alleviated the hepatic cellular steatosis and inflammatory infiltration in NAFLD rats. They could regulate the gut microbiota disorders in NAFLD rats， significantly increased the relative abundance of Romboutsia and Oscillospira， and significantly decreased the relative abundance of Blautia （P＜0.05）. They also regulated metabolic disorders primarily by affecting secondary bile acid biosynthesis， fatty acid degradation， O-antigen nucleotide sugar biosynthesis， etc. Results of Western blot assay showed that they significantly reduced the phosphorylation levels of NF-κB p65 and NF-κB inhibitor α， and the protein expression levels of NLRP3， caspase-1 and ASC （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS Jingangteng capsules could improve inflammation， lipid accumulation and liver injury in NAFLD rats， regulate the disorders of gut microbiota and metabolisms， and inhibit NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway. Their therapeutic effects against NAFLD are mediated through the inhibition of the NF-κB/NLRP3 signaling pathway.

EZH2 expression in breast cancer tissues was higher than that in normal adjacent breast tissues ( P<0.05). In the Kaplan Meier Plotter database, the total survival time, relapse free survival time, and distant metastasis free survival time of breast cancer patients in the EZH2 overexpression group were shorter than those in the EZH2 low expression group ( P=0.013, <0.001, <0.001). After 7 days of inoculation with MCF7 culture suspension, significant subcutaneous tumors were observed on the left back of both groups of nude mice. On the first day, there were no statistically significant difference in body mass between the two groups of nude mice ( P>0.05); On day 7, 13, 19, 25, and 28, the body mass and tumor volume of both groups of nude mice gradually increased (nude mouse body mass: within group F=29.31, P<0.001, between groups F=234.32, P<0.001, Finteraction=16.83, P<0.001; Tumor volume: within group F=34.00, P<0.001, between groups F=193.17, P<0.001, Finteraction=35.61, P<0.001). And the body mass of the siEZH2 group nude mice was higher than that of control group (all P<0.05). On days 19, 25, and 28, tumor the volume of the siEZH2 group nude mice was smaller than that of control group (all P<0.05). On the 28th day, the mass of tumors dissected in the siEZH2 group of nude mice was lower than that in the control group [(0.30±0.07) g vs. (0.61±0.14) g, t=5.16, P<0.001]。 Conclusions:EZH2 is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues and is significantly associated with poor prognosis. Knockdown of EZH2 can significantly inhibit the proliferation and tumor formation of breast cancer cells.

Objective Analyze the risk factors associated with severe subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH)and rebleeding in small intracranial aneurysms.Methods From July 2014 to January 2020,patients with SAH caused by small ruptured intracranial aneurysms admitted to the Neurosurgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital,Chongqing Medical University were retrospectively and continuously included.Small intracranial aneurysms refer to intracranial aneurysms with a maximum diameter of less than 5 mm.Baseline data and clinical data of patients were collected,including age,gender,past history(hypertension,diabetes,coronary heart disease),smoking history,drinking history,admission Glasgow coma scale(GCS)score and Hunt-Hess grade.Patient imaging data were collected to clarify the characteristics of aneurysms,including the number of aneurysms(single or multiple),the shape of SAH responsible aneurysms(irregular aneurysms with subcapsular,polycystic,or lobulated aneurysms),and their location(anterior communicating artery,posterior communicating artery,middle cerebral artery,anterior cerebral artery,internal carotid artery,and posterior circulation).Based on the CT images of the head at admission,the distribution of SAH in patients was determined.The modified Fisher grading system was used to classify SAH into 1-4 levels,and the Hijdra score was used to assess the bleeding volume of SAH in patients.The treatment methods of patients(interventional embolization,clipping)were collected.All patients were grouped according to the modified Fisher classification,with grades 1-2 being the minor SAH group and grades 3-4 being the massive SAH group.Baseline data and clinical data and aneurysm characteristics were compared between minor SAH group and massive SAH group.Multiple Logistic regression analysis was conducted using the modified Fisher grades 3-4 as the dependent variable,and factors with P＜0.1 in baseline data that may affect SAH bleeding volume as independent variables,the risk factors associated with the massive SAH in small ruptured intracranial aneurysms were analyzed.New bleeding visible on preoperative CT of the patient,with or without neurological deterioration,is defined as rebleeding.All patients are divided into rebleeding group and non-rebleeding group based on the occurrence of rebleeding.Baseline data and aneurysm characteristics between patients with rebleeding and those without rebleeding were compared.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was conducted with rebleeding as the dependent variable,and factors with P＜0.1 in baseline data and aneurysm characteristics were used as independent variables,the risk factors associated with rebleeding in small aneurysms were analyzed.Results A total of 363 SAH patients with small ruptured aneurysms were included in this study,including 103 males and 260 females;age range from 25 to 85 years old,with an average age of(55±11)years.According to the modified Fisher classification,there were 198 cases in the massive SAH group and 165 cases in the minor SAH group.Compared with patients in the minor SAH group,patients in the massive SAH group were older(P=0.011),with a higher proportion of males,concomitant hypertension,and smoking history(all P＜0.05).The proportion of admitted Hunt Hess grade Ⅳ to V was higher(26.3％vs.2.4％,P＜0.01),the GCS score was lower([13.1±1.8]points vs.[13.9±0.8]points,P＜0.01),and the Hijdra score was higher([19.7±5.4]points vs.[8.4±2.6]points,P＜0.01).There was no statistically significant difference in the number of aneurysms and the location and morphology of responsible aneurysms between the massive and minor SAH groups(all P＞0.05).According to whether patients experienced rebleeding before surgery,there were 30 cases in the rebleeding group and 333 cases in the non-rebleeding group.Compared with the non-rebleeding group,patients in the rebleeding group had a higher proportion of concomitant hypertension(83.3％vs.49.2％,P＜0.01)and a higher proportion of admitted Hunt Hess grades Ⅳ-V(43.3％vs.12.9％,P＜0.01),lower GCS scores(12[9,14]points vs.14[13,14]points,P＜0.01),and higher Hijdra scores(18[9,26]points vs.14[9,18]points,P=0.024).There was no statistically significant difference in the number of aneurysms,responsible aneurysm morphology,and location between the rebleeding group and the non-rebleeding group(all P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference between the coiling and clipping in the two group(both P＞0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analysis was conducted using modified Fisher grading 3-4 and rebleeding as dependent variables respectively.The results showed that age(OR,1.027,95％CI 1.006-1.049,P=0.012)and hypertension(OR,1.858,95％CI 1.196-2.886,P=0.006)were independent risk factors associated with massive SAH in small ruptured aneurysms.Hypertension(OR,3.775,95％CI 1.371-10.391,P=0.010)and lower GCS score(OR,0.677,95％CI 0.561-0.816,P＜0.01)were independent risk factors associated with rebleeding in small ruptured aneurysms.Conclusions Older age and concomitant hypertension are risk factors associated with massive SAH in patients with small ruptured aneurysms.Coexisting hypertension and lower GCS score are risk factors associated with rebleeding in patients with small ruptured aneurysms.
