OBJECTIVE: To explore the peripheral neural mechanism underlying representation along the distribution of stomach meridian induced by intestinal inflammatory reaction using diarrhea predominant-irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) mice. METHODS: Among 62 healthy male C57BL/6 mice of clean grade, 12 mice were randomly selected and divided into a control group and a model group, 6 mice in each group, additionally, 12 mice were randomly selected and divided into a Tianshu group, a Liangqiu group and a Zusanli group, 4 mice in each group. In the model group, citrobacter was administered orally to establish IBS-D model. In the control group and the model group, the visceral pain threshold was observed using fecal colorectal distension (fCRD) induced electromyography of external oblique muscle, the positive cell number of neutrophil in the colonic muscularis was detected by myeloperoxidase (MPO) staining, the number, location and distribution rule of Evans blue (EB) extravasation points were observed by injection of EB staining solution into the tail vein. In the Tianshu group, the Liangqiu group and the Zusanli group, fluorescent dye Dil was injected at bilateral "Tianshu" (ST25), "Liangqiu" (ST34) and "Zusanli" (ST36) respectively, to observe the dye-positive cell number in different dorsal root ganglion (DRG) segments. In the control group and the model group, the activation of satellite glial cells (SGCs) in different DRG segments was observed by immunofluorescence. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, in the model group, the area under curve of electromyography of external oblique muscle was increased at fCRD of 25, 50 and 75 μL distilled water (P<0.001, P<0.01); the MPO-positive cell number of neutrophil in the colonic muscularis was increased (P<0.01). Few EB extravasation points could be found in the control group, while there were much more EB extravasation points observed in the model group, which was specially distribution in the area of stomach meridian, from "Huaroumen" (ST24) to "Zusanli" (ST36), as well as the surface area dominated by L₂-L₅ segment of the spinal cord. The Dil-positive cells were mainly exhibited in the DRG of T₁₁, L₅ and L₄ segments in the Tianshu group, the Liangqiu group and the Zusanli group, respectively. Compared with the control group, the ratio of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)/glutamine synthetase (GS) co-expression was increased in the DRG of T₁₁, L₄ and L₅ segments in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). CONCLUSION The activation of SGCs within DRG of T₁₁, L₄ and L₅ segments may relate closely to the occurrence of the representation along the stomach meridian distribution in IBS-D mice.

Objective To observe the effect of m⁶A methylation regulation on Notch1 pathway on the homing of BMSCs in asthma, and the intervention study of traditional Chinese medicine compound Yanghe Pingchuan Granules. Methods Rat bone mesenchymal stem cells(BMSC)and bronchial epithelial cells were cocultured. The extracted cells were divided into: bronchial epithelial cell group, asthma bronchial epithelial cell+mesenchymal stem cell co-culture group (co-culture group), co-culture cell+normal serum group, coculture cell+serum containing optimal drug group, siRNA FTO+normal serum group, siRNA FTO-NC+normal serum group, and siRNA FTO+serum containing optimal drug group. The vitality and cell cycle changes of co-cultured cells were detected. The level and markers of homing BMSC were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The expression of Notch1 pathway related genes were detected by qRT-PCR. The expression of Notch1 pathway related proteins were detected by Western blot. Results Compared with bronchial epithelial cell group, the co-cultured cell group showed an increase in the homing level of BMSCs and the expression of C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4), stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1), Notch1, transcription factor recombination signal binding protein-J (RBP-J), and hairy enhancer of split 1 (Hes1) proteins. Compared with the co-cultured cell group and co-cultured cell+normal serum group, the co-cultured cell+serum containing optimal drug group showed an increase in the homing level of BMSCs and the expressions of CXCR4 and SDF-1, while the protein and mRNA levels of Notch1 and Hes1 decreased. Compared with the siRNA FTO-NC+normal serum group, the siRNA FTO+normal serum group showed an increase in the levels of Notch1, activated Notch1, RBP-J, Hes1 protein, and cell viability, while the level of homing BMSC decreased. Compared with siRNA FTO+normal serum group, the levels of Notch1, RBP-J mRNA, activated Notch1, and Hes1 protein decreased, while the level of homing BMSCs increased in siRNA FTO+serum containing optimal drug group. The levels of Notch1, RBP-J, and Hes1 mRNA were reduced in the co-cultured cells+serum containing optimal drug group. Compared with siRNA FTO+serum containing optimal drug group, the expressions of Notch1, activated Notch1, RBP-J, Hes1 protein and cell viability decreased, while the level of homing BMSCs increased in the co-cultured cells+serum containing optimal drug group. Conclusion Yanghe Pingchuan Granules may promote the homing of BMSCs in asthma and alleviate asthma inflammation by upregulating the expression of FTO and inhibiting the expression of downstream genes in the Notch1 signaling pathway.

Methods:Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were treated with glucose and palmitic acid in vitro to establish the glycolipitoxic endothelial cell models.Following groups were examined:control group,high-glucose and high-fat group,high-glucose and high-fat + non-targeting RAN control group,high-glucose and high-lipid+MALAT1 siRNA group,and high-glucose and high-lipid+MAPK1 siRNA group.RT-qPCR was used to detect the mRNA expression of MALAT1 and MAPK1.Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of autophagy,mitochondrial fusion division,apoptosis,and pathway-related proteins.Immunofluorescence confocal localization was used to detect the fluorescence colocalization of autophagy and lysosome-related proteins.The number of autophagolysosomes in endothelial cells was observed by transmission electron microscopy.Mitochondrial probe staining was used to detect mitochondrial morphology,immunofluorescence was used to detect intracellular reactive oxygen species(ROS)production,flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of cells in each group,cell proliferation and scratch assays were used to detect the proliferation and migration ability of cells in different groups at different time points.The angiogenesis was quantified by counting the number of new blood vessels in each group. Results:Compared with the control group,the expression of lncRNA MALAT1 mRNA and the expression of phosphorylated mito-activated protein kinase 1(p-MAPK1)were upregulated(both P＜0.05)and the expression of phosphorylated mammalian target protein(p-mTOR)was downregulated in the high-glucose and high-fat group and the high-sugar and high-fat control group(all P＜0.01).Compared with the high-glucose and high-fat non-targeting RNA control group,the expressions of microtubule-associated protein 1A/1B-light chain 3(LC3)and p62 were downregulated(P＜0.01,P＜0.05),LC3 and lysosome-associated membrane protein 2(LAMP2)protein co-localized positive fluorescence particles were increased(both P＜0.01),number of lysosomes were decreased,the expression of ROS was decreased(P＜0.01),the expression level of mitochondrial fusion protein optic nerve atrophin 1(OPA1)was increased(P＜0.05),the expressions of cleaved caspase-3 and BCL-2-related X protein(BAX)were decreased and BCL-2 was increased(all P＜0.05),cell proliferation,migration,and tube-forming ability were increased(all P＜0.01),and the expression of p-MAPK1 was decreased(P＜0.05)and p-mTOR expression was increased(both P＜0.05)in the high-glucose and high-lipid+si-MALAT1 group.Compared with the high-glucose and high-fat non-targeting RNA control group,the expression of p-MAPK1 in endothelial cells was decreased and the expression of p-mTOR was increased in the high-glucose and high-lipid+si-MAPK1 group(both P＜0.01). Conclusions:Inhibition of lncRNA MALAT1 expression can reduce the level of mitophagy in glycolipidotoxic environments,reduce apoptosis of endothelial cells and improve endothelial cell function,which may be related to the regulation of MAPK1/mTOR signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine(Dex)on the release of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor(GDNF)during the anti-ischemic stroke.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into sham group(Sham group),sham+dexmedetomidine group(Sham+Dex group),ischemic stroke group(IS group),ischemic stroke+dexmedetomidine group(IS+Dex group),ischemic stroke+dexmedetomidine group+anti-GDNF(IS+Dex+anti-GDNF group),with 15 rats in each group.IS model was established by Longa's methods.24 hours later,the neurological scores were evaluated.Then,the rats were sacrificed and the cerebral spinal fluid,as well as the peripheral blood,were collected to detect the content of GDNF.In addition,TTC staining was used to evaluate the area of cerebral ischemic infarction,and immunofluorescence was applied to detect the activation of astrocytes.Furthermore,the activation phenotype of astrocytes was detected by qRT-PCR.Results Compared with Sham group,there were no significant changes in all indexes of rats in Sham+Dex group.In IS group,the neurological score increased(P＜0.05),the local infarction area appeared,the release of GDNF in peripheral and central system increased(P＜0.05),and the microglia activation was induced by IS,and the expression of neuro-toxic and neuroprotective phenotype genes increased significantly(P＜0.05).Compared with the IS group,the neurological function score of the rats in the IS+Dex group significantly decreased(P＜0.05),the local infarct area was significantly reduced(P＜0.05),and the release of GDNF further increased(P＜0.05).The expression of neurotoxic astrocyte phenotype genes significantly decreased(P＜0.05),while the expression of neuroprotective astrocyte phenotype genes further increased(P＜0.05).However,intervention with anti-GDNF antibody obviously reversed the therapeutic effect of Dex compared with the IS+Dex group.Conclusion Dex can inhibit the pheno-type of neurotoxic astrocytes,increase the proportion of neuroprotective astrocytes,further promote the release of GDNF,and play an anti-ischemic stroke role.

Purpose Based on liver lesions,to investigate the feasibility and influencing factors of virtual non-contrast(VNC)replacing true non-contrast(TNC)in tri-phase derived from Revolution CT.Materials and Methods A total of 62 patients who underwent TNC and tri-phase(arterial,venous,and delayed phases)spectral enhanced liver scans were retrospectively enrolled in Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University from December 2021 to April 2022.Liver lesions with a diameter of≥5 mm were measured and categorized into Group 1(≤20 Hu)and Group 2(>20 Hu)according to the CT values of TNC,then were respectively further categorized into group a(≤20 Hu across all three phases of enhancement)and group b(>20 Hu in at least one phase of enhancement)based on the degree of enhancement.CT attenuation,maximum diameter and detection rates of lesions were compared between TNC and three-phase VNC groups.Multivariate regression analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors of the density difference between VNC and TNC.Results A statistically significant difference in the attenuation of lesions was observed among the each groups(χ2/F=14.712,18.603,7.334,all P<0.01).Except for VNCV and VNCD in Group-1a which had no significant difference with TNC(both P>0.05),the attenuation of other VNCs were lower than TNC in category-a and greater than TNC in category-b(all P<0.05).Maximal diameter presented strong correlation and no significant difference in VNCA and VNCV compared to TNC in each group(all P>0.05;all r>0.8 and P<0.001).A significant difference in the detection rate of the lesions was observed among the groups(χ2=47.660,P<0.001),VNCV images displayed the higher detection rate than VNCA and VNCD(all P<0.05).The density difference between VNC and TNC was positively correlated with CT values of the corresponding enhancement phase(r2adjusted=0.209,0.142,0.062,P<0.001).Conclusion Based on Revolution CT,VNCV is the optimal phase to replace TNC and can be mitigated by CT value of the lesions in venous-phase.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of serum serine protease (Corin) in chronic renal failure (CRF) complicated with heart failure.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 120 patients, (64.05±13.89) years old, 77 male (64.17%), with chronic renal failure combined with heart failure admitted to Zhengzhou People′s Hospital from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023. The control group consisted of 87 patients, (60.59±8.78) years old, 54 male (62.07%), with simple chronic renal failure.

Among patients with CRF complicated with heart failure, serum Corin[2 231.74±311.39 pg/ml vs. 2 562.09±365.30 pg/ml vs. 2 825.57±536.83 pg/ml, F=74.33, P<0.001], BNP [234.00(168.00, 612.00) pg/ml compared with 514.00(260.00, 1 455.00) pg/ml compared with 2 200.00(640.50, 4 682.75) pg/ml, H=29.42, P<0.001], D-dimer [753.00(514.00, 1 280.00) μg/L compared with 1 187.00(590.00, 1 840.00) μg/L compared with 1 603.00(810.00, 3 313.25) μg/L, H=14.98, P<0.001] increased with the increase of cardiac function grade, and the difference was statistically significant. According to Spearman correlation analysis, serum Corin was positively correlated with BNP ( r=0.409) and D-dimer ( r=0.299), P<0.001. According to the ROC analysis, the AUC of serum Corin in the diagnosis of CRF complicated with heart failure and cardiac function grade Ⅱ, Ⅲ, Ⅳ were 0.890(95% CI 0.846-0.935), 0.807 (95% CI 0.728-0.885), 0.911 (95% CI 0.864-0.959), 0.927 (95% CI 0.882-0.972) respectively; the AUC of BNP in the diagnosis of CRF complicated with heart failure was 0.867 (95% CI 0.817-0.916), the AUC of serum Corin combined with D-dimer, BNP combined with D-dimer, serum Corin combined with D-dimer and BNP in the diagnosis of CRF complicated with heart failure were respectively 0.930 (95% CI 0.897-0.962), 0.892 (95% CI 0.847-0.936), 0.952 (95% CI 0.927-0.977). Conclusions:Serum Corin expression is elevated in patients with CRF complicated with heart failure, and the degree of elevation is related to cardiac function grade. Serum Corin has a good diagnostic value for CRF complicated with heart failure and its severity. Serum Corin is expected to become a new biomarker for diagnosis of CRF complicated with heart failure.

AIM:To investigate whether the expression of perilipin 2(PLIN2)in renal tubular cells could predict a decline in renal function in diabetic kidney disease(DKD)patients,and to explore the potential mechanisms in-volved in renal tubular cell injury induced by PLIN2 during the progression of DKD.METHODS:Control individuals(n=12)and DKD patients(n=51)were enrolled in this retrospective cohort study.Demographic and laboratory data were col-lected.A simplified linear mixed-effects model was applied to assess the estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)slope.The relationship between PLIN2 and renal function decline in DKD patients was predicted by Spearman correlation analysis and a generalized linear model.BKS-db/db diabetic mice and streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice were used.Primary renal tubular cells were treated with glucose and transfected with small interfering RNA or plasmid.Western blot-ting and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect PLIN2 expression.Lipid droplets were stained with oil red O.The oxygen consumption rate(OCR)of mitochondria was measured using an extracellular flux analyser.RESULTS:The expression of PLIN2 was markedly higher in the tubules of DKD patients than in those of control subjects.After 24(12,39)months of follow-up,the eGFR slope of DKD patients was-7.42(-19.77,-2.09)mL/(min·1.73 m2·year).An in-crease in the baseline percentage of PLIN2-positive tubules was significantly associated with the eGFR slope during the fol-low-up period[hazard ratio(HR)=1.90,95%confidence interval(CI):1.00～3.58],indicating that tubular PLIN2 could predict a decrease in renal function in DKD patients.Both the accumulation of lipid droplets and the expression of PLIN2 were markedly greater in the tubules of diabetic mice than in those of control mice.Glucose treatment induced lipid droplet accumulation and PLIN2 expression in renal tubular cells.Knockdown of PLIN2 significantly alleviated glucose-in-duced lipid droplet accumulation,whereas PLIN2 overexpression aggravated glucose-induced lipid droplet accumulation.The decrease in mitochondrial OCR in renal tubular cells induced by glucose treatment was alleviated after PLIN2 knock-down.However,overexpression of PLIN2 directly decreased the mitochondrial OCR.CONCLUSION:The PLIN2 ex-pression in tubules predicts a decline in renal function in patients with DKD.The PLIN2 suppresses mitochondrial aerobic respiration and contributes to the accumulation of lipid droplets in renal tubular cells to promote the progression of DKD.

Objective:To explore the application effect of theory of inventive problem solving(TRIZ)in the management of loaner instruments in central sterile supply department(CSSD).Methods:TRIZ management team was set up to analyze problems in cleaning,disinfection and sterilization of loaner instruments.The invention principles of TRIZ were compared to determine targeted solutions to the corresponding problems.A total of 1,000 pieces of loaner instruments received by The Third Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University were selected from January and December 2023 were selected,the 500 pieces received from January to June were managed by routine standard management mode,and the 500 pieces received from July to December were managed by the TRIZ management mode.The qualification rates of instruments cleaning,disinfection,packaging and sterilization,the incidence of adverse events,the satisfaction scores of clinical departments and assessment results of newly hired nurses of CSSD were compared between the two management modes.Results:The qualification rates of instruments cleaning,disinfection,packaging and sterilization of TRIZ management mode were 98.00%(490/500),97.20%(486/500),96.40%(482/500)and 96.00%(480/500),respectively,which were higher than those of routine standard management mode,the difference was statistically significant(x2=12.029,11.685,8.859,8.322,P<0.05).The incidence of adverse events of TRIZ management mode was 0%,the routine standard management mode was 1.20%,the difference was statistically significant(x2=6.036,P<0.05).The average scores of CSSD newly hired nurses in of theoretical knowledge,treatment process,cleaning,disinfection and sterilization and packaging of TRIZ management mode were(89.20±6.69)points,(88.47±3.48)points,(92.47±5.37)points and(92.00±5.83)points,respectively,which were higher than those of routine standard management mode,the difference was statistically significant(t=3.993,4.402,3.926,3.332,P<0.05).The satisfaction scores of clinical department personnel with instruments quality,distribution,handover,information traceability,service attitude and overall satisfaction of TRIZ management mode were(18.65±0.81)points,(18.85±1.04)points,(18.95±1.05)points,(18.40±0.75)points,(18.35±0.93)points and(93.20±1.91)points,respectively,which were higher than those of the routine standard management mode,the difference was statistically significant(t=3.599,5.889,4.851,4.865,2.075,8.723,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of TRIZ in the management of loaner instruments in CSSD can significantly improve theoretical knowledge and practical skills of newly hired nurses in CSSD,thereby improving the qualification rates of instruments cleaning,disinfection,packaging and sterilization of loaner instruments,reducing the occurrence of instrument-related adverse events and improving satisfaction of department personnel with instruments use.

OBJECTIVES: To observe the role of miR-139-5p and Notch1 signaling pathway in regulation of homing of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) of asthmatic rats. METHODS: Normal rat BMSCs were co-cultured with bronchial epithelial cells from normal or asthmatic rats, followed by transfection with miR-139-5p mimics or a negative control sequence. The changes in cell viability and cell cycle were analyzed, and the cellular expressions of CXCR4 and SDF-1 were detected using immunofluorescence staining. The changes of BMSC homing after the transfection were observed, and the expressions of Notch1, RBP-J, and Hes1 mRNAs and proteins and Th1/Th2 cytokines were detected with RT-qPCR, Western blotting or ELISA. RESULTS: The co-cultures of BMSCs and asthmatic bronchial epithelial cells showed significantly decreased expressions of miR-139-5p, IL-2 and IL-12 and increased expressions of CXCR4, SDF-1, IL-5, IL-9, Notch1, RBP-J, and Hes1. Transfection with miR-139-5p mimics significantly increased the expressions of miR-139-5p, IL-2, CXCR4 and SDF-1 and lowered the expression levels of IL-5, IL-9, Notch1, activated Notch1, and Hes1 in the co-cultured cells. Correlation analysis showed that BMSC homing was positively correlated with miR-139-5p and IL-12 and negatively correlated with IL-5 expression. The expression of CXCR4 was negatively correlated with activated Notch1, and SDF-1 was positively correlated with miR-139-5p but negatively correlated with Notch1 expression. CONCLUSIONS High expression of miR-139-5p promotes homing of BMSCs in asthma by targeting the Notch1 signaling pathway to regulate the expressions of Th1/Th2 cytokines, thereby alleviating airway inflammation.

BackgroundSleep disorder can adversely affect human physical and mental health， with important implications for socioeconomic development. And higher vocational college students are subject to various pressures and stimuli exerted by academic studies， job seeking and family socioeconomic status， which may contribute to the onset insomnia symptom or sleep disorder. ObjectiveTo discuss the sleep status and influencing factors among higher vocational college students， and to provide references for improving their sleep status. MethodsIn January and February， 2022， a stratified random sampling method was utilized to enroll 3 300 students from five higher vocational colleges in Wenjiang district of Chengdu city. All the participants were assessed using Insomnia Severity Index （ISI）， Patient Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item （PHQ-9） and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 （GAD-7）. Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to test the correlation of ISI with PHQ-9 and GAD-7 scores， and the Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the influencing factors of insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students. ResultInsomnia symptom was detected in 81.90% （2 497 / 3 300） of higher vocational college students. The detection rate of insomnia symptom among vocational college students yielded statistical difference in terms of gender， family socioeconomic status， being an only child or having siblings， degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， amount of hours spent on Internet per day， frequency of physical exercise， and the presence or absence of anxiety symptom and depression symptom （χ²=21.032， 22.172， 8.983， 75.939， 36.781， 32.350， 54.512， 86.561， P<0.01 or 0.05）. Among higher vocational college students， ISI score was positively correlated with GAD-7 and PHQ-9 scores （r=0.620， 0.714， P<0.01）， and GAD-7 score was positively correlated with PHQ-9 score （r=0.824， P<0.01）. Gender， family socioeconomic status， degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， amount of hours spent on Internet per day， frequency of physical exercise， and the presence or absence of anxiety symptom and depression symptom were effective factors in predicting the insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students （P<0.01 or 0.05）. ConclusionFemale gender， average and below average family socioeconomic status， moderate-to-severe degree of psychological pressure exerted by academic studies or job seeking， spending 2~5 h， 5~7 h or >7 h on Internet per day， inadequate physical exercise and presence of depressive symptom are the risk factors for insomnia symptom in higher vocational college students.［Funded by Sichuan Provincial Primary Health Development Research Center in 2022， North Sichuan Medical College （number， SWFZ22-C-89）］
