Objective:To observe the changes of peripheral blood T cell subsets and serum tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6 contents in narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) patients and their correlations with narcolepsy, and provide basis for finding the biological markers of narcolepsy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed. From March 2022 to December 2023, 23 patients with NT1 admitted to Epilepsy and Sleep Disorder Center, Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University and 23 healthy controls underwent physical examination of nervous system in our center were enrolled. T lymphocyte subsets CD4 + and CD8 + in peripheral blood were calculated by flow cytometry. Serum TNF-α and IL-6 contents were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to determine the correlations of NT1 with CD4 + T lymphocyte count and IL-6 and TNF-α contents, and diagnostic values of CD4 + T lymphocyte and TNF-α in NT1 were evaluated via area under receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. Results:Compared with the healthy controls, the NT1 patients had significantly increased peripheral blood CD4 + T lymphocyte count ([820.61±316.87] /μL vs. [1121.04±387.47] /μL), and significantly higher serum TNF-α and IL-6 contents ([39.97±10.64] pg/mL vs. [57.01±19.92] pg/mL; [22.50±6.09] pg/mL vs. [33.66±17.28] pg/mL, P<0.05). No significant difference in peripheral blood CD8 + T lymphocyte count was noted between the 2 groups ([668.65±276.45] pg/mL vs. [592.52±217.78] pg/mL, P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression showed that CD4 + T lymphocyte count and serum TNF-α content were independent risk factors for NT1 ( OR=1.004, 95% CI: 1.001-1.006, P=0.007; OR=1.133, 95% CI: 1.032-1.243, P=0.009). Area under ROC curve of the two combined indexes was 0.881(95% CI: 0.784-0.977, P=0.001), enjoying sensitivity of 0.783 and specificity of 0.870. Conclusion:Combination of peripheral blood CD4 + T lymphocyte count and serum TNF-α content has high diagnostic performance in predicting NT1.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:Insulin resistance(IR)is closely associated with atherosclerosis and adverse cardiovascular events.The triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index is an effective indicator for assessing IR.This study aims to explore the relationship between the TyG index and the risk of arterial stiffness progression. Methods:This retrospective cohort study included adults who had undergone at least 2 health examinations with arteriosclerosis testing at the Health Management Medical Center of the Third Xiangya Hospital,Central South University,between January 2012 and December 2022.Clinical data were collected.The TyG index was calculated using the formula of ln(triglyceridesxfasting blood glucose/2).The baseline TyG index was assessed as both a continuous variable and as a quartile-based categorical variable.The progression of arteriosclerosis was evaluated by the annual change rate of brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity(baPWV)and the new onset of increased arterial stiffness.Linear regression model and Cox proportional hazard model were used to explore whether the TyG index is an independent risk factor for arterial stiffness progression.Subgroup analyses were performed based on age,gender,body mass index(BMI),and the presence of type 2 diabetes,hypertension,or hyperlipidemia to determine the characteristics of the association between the TyG index and arterial stiffness progression. Results:A total of 4 971 participants were included,with a follow-up period of(3.01±1.98)years.During follow-up,the annual baPWV change rate was(24.94±81.15)cm/s,and 278 cases of new onset of increased aterial stiffness were recorded.After fully adjusting for confounding factors,the baseline TyG index was independently positively correlated with both the annual baPWV change rate(β=17.5,95％CI 9.00 to 25.94,P＜0.001)and the risk of new onset of increased aterial stiffness[hazard ratio(HR)=1.43,95％CI 1.18 to 1.74,P＜0.001]when the TyG index was treated as a continuous variable.When treated as a categorical variable,higher TyG index quartiles were associated with progressively higher baPWV change rates and new onset of increased arterial stiffness(all P＜0.055).In subgroups of participants aged ≥45 years,males,BMI＜28 kg/m2,those with or without hypertension,and those without type 2 diabetes or hyperlipidemia,the baseline TyG index(both continuous and categorical)was significantly associated with new onset of increased arterial stiffness(all P＜0.05),with no significant interactions observed across subgroups(all P＞0.05). Conclusion:The TyG index is independently associated with an increased risk of arterial stiffness progression and may serve as a useful indicator for assessing arterial stiffness progression risk in health check-up populations.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of frailty in elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD), and to compare and analyze the value of different frailty scales in screening elderly patients with coronary heart disease.Methods:Using cross-sectional research methods，elderly patients with coronary heart disease from November 2019 to January 2020 in the Department of Cardiology of a tertiary hospital in Zhenjiang City were selected as the research objects. The frailty status of the patients was evaluated by the frailty index scale, and the patients were divided into frailty group (54 cases) and non-frailty group (149 cases) according to the evaluation results. F-test was used for the comparison between measurement data groups conforming to normal distribution, and χ 2 test or exact probability method was used for the comparison of counting data. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the main influencing factors of elderly patients with coronary heart disease. The correlation and consistency of clinical frail scale, frail scale and frail index were compared and analyzed were analyzed by Spearman correlation and Kappa test. ROC curve was used to analyze the sensitivity, specificity and the area under the working characteristic curve. Results:The age ((78.96±6.78) years), the percentage of monocytes >10% (31.48% (17/54)), the specific index for coronary heart disease ≥4 points (57.41% (31/54)), Barthel index <100 points (85.19% (46/54)), the mini nutritional assessment scale <24 points (66.67% (36/54)) of the patients in the frail group was higher than these in non-frail group ((73.94±5.89) years old, 12.08%(18/149), 7.38%(11/149), 22.15%(33/149), 14.77%(22/149)), the differences were statistically significant (statistical values were t=5.15, χ 2=10.46, χ 2=60.45, χ 2=66.26, χ 2=52.32; P values were <0.001,0.001,<0.001,<0.001,<0.001,respectively). The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the percentage of monocytes >10% ( OR=5.927, 95% CI:1.854-18.947), the mini nutritional assessment scale <24 ( OR=7.026, 95% CI:2.660-18.555),the specific index for coronary heart disease ≥4 points ( OR=3.333, 95% CI:1.889-26.850,) and Barthel index <100 points ( OR=15.649, 95% CI:5.403-45.321) are the main effects of frailty in elderly patients with coronary heart disease factors ( P values were 0.003,<0.001,<0.001, and <0.001, respectively). Taking the frailty index as the gold standard, the sensitivity of the clinical frailty scale and FRAIL scale were 85.19% and 85.19%, respectively, and the specificity was 90.60% and 94.63%, respectively, with no significant difference (χ 2 values were 0.000 and 1.767; all P>0.05). The Kappa of the clinical frailty scale scale was <0.75, while the Kappa of the FRAIL scale was >0.75. The consistency of the frail scale with the gold standard was better than that of the clinical frailty scale scale. Conclusion:The percentage of monocytes, the specific index for coronary heart disease, the mini nutritional assessment scale and Barthel index are the main factors affecting the frailty of elderly patients with coronary heart disease. Taking the frailty index score as the standard, the consistency between the screening results of frail scale and frailty index score is better than that of clinical frailty scale scale, which has clinical application value.

Objective To investigate relative translations of the glenohumeral joint during abduction, scaption and forward flexion in normal Chinese, so as to provide references for diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of glenohumeral joint instability and subacromial impingement syndrome.Methods The biplanar fluoroscopy system combined with model-image registration technique were used to measure the humeral translation relative to the scapular in 13 healthy volunteers during abduction, scaption and forward flexion.Results The anterior-inferior glenohumeral translation during abduction, scaption and forward flexion was (4.0±1.3), (4.1±1.5),(4.8±1.9) mm, respectively. The superior-inferior glenohumeral translation was (3.0±1.0), (3.1±1.1), (3.3±1.5) mm, respectively. During the whole motion, there was a significant difference in superior-inferior translation at different arm elevation angles, while other significant differences were not found.Conclusions For normal Chinese, the humeral head was positioned posteriorly and superiorly on the glenoid. During forward flexion, the anterior-inferior and superior-inferior glenohumeral translation was the maxium. Therefore, in the process of clinical diagnosis, treatment and follow-up, patients performing the forward flexion may obtain a better evaluation effect.

Objective:To study whether curcumin inhibits the proliferation and promotes the apoptosis of nephroblastoma through activating the miR-192-5p/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.Methods:CCK-8 assay was used to investigate the effects of curcumin on the proliferation of nephroblastoma SK-NEP-1 cells and the appropriate concentration. The apoptosis rate of SK-NEP-1 cells was detected by V-FITC/PI. Luciferase reporter assay was used to verify the binding activity between miR-192-5p and PI3K. RT-PCR was performed to detect the expression of miR-192-5p at mRNA level. Western blot was used to detect the expression of PI3K and Akt at protein level.Results:Curcumin could significantly inhibit the proliferation of SK-NEP-1 cells and induce cell apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. RT-PCR results showed that curcumin could significantly increase the expression of miR-192-5p. In addition, miR-192-5p significantly inhibited cell proliferation, induced cell apoptosis, and enhanced the effects of curcumin on the proliferation and apoptosis of SK-NEP-1 cells. Luciferase reporter assay suggested that miR-192-5p could bind to PI3K. Western blot results showed that curcumin down-regulated the expression of PI3K and Akt at protein level by mediating the expression of miR-192-5p.Conclusions:Curcumin could inhibit the proliferation and induce the apoptosis of nephroblastoma cells through mediating the expression of miR-192-5p and further inhibiting the downstream PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the related influencing factors of interstitial pneumonia (IP) in B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL) patients treated with R-CHOP-like chemotherapy regimen.Methods:The clinical data of 377 CD20 + B-NHL patients in Minhang Branch of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Hospital from January 2014 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether rituximab was used, patients were divided into R-CHOP-like chemotherapy group (275 cases) and CHOP-like chemotherapy group (102 cases). The incidence of IP in patients stratified according to different clinical factors was analyzed, and logistic multivariate regression was used to analyze the risk factors of IP. Results:Thirty-eight out of 377 patients (10.08%) developed IP; the incidence rates of IP in the R-CHOP-like chemotherapy group and the CHOP-like chemotherapy group were 13.09% (36/275) and 1.96% (2/102), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 = 10.169, P < 0.01). There were statistical differences in the incidence rates of IP between patients with or without rituximab, with or without liposomal doxorubicin in the regimen, and with or without grade Ⅳ neutropenia occurred during the treatment [13.09% (36/275) vs. 1.96% (2/102), 18.18% (22/ 121) vs. 6.25% (16/256), 15.43% (27/175) vs. 5.45% (11/202), all P < 0.01]. Logistic regression analysis showed that the application of rituximab ( OR = 6.761, 95% CI 1.369-33.711, P = 0.020) and grade Ⅳ neutropenia ( OR = 7.443, 95% CI 2.132-8.199, P = 0.001) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of IP. Conclusions:R-CHOP-like chemotherapy regimen increases the occurrence of IP in patients with B-NHL. The use of rituximab and grade Ⅳ neutropenia are independent risk factors for the occurrence of IP.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of glucocorticoids+cyclophosphamide+tacrolimus capsules (GC+CTX+FK506) in the treatment of patients with type Ⅲ+V and Ⅳ+Vlupus nephritis. Methods The 31 cases with first diagnosis as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with type Ⅲ+V and Ⅳ+Vlupus nephritis (LN) were selected, then divided into group A (CTX+GC) with 16 cases and group B (FK506+CTX+GC) with 15 cases. The group A received CTX+GC during treatment, group B received GC+CTX+FK506 for the first three months, and received FK506+GC for the last three months. The patients were followed up once monthly to observe the efficacy and safety,the efficacy was analysed after 6 months. Results After treatment, the total efficacy in group B was significantly higher than group A (86.7%vs.50.0%, P<0.05). The 24 h urine protein of group B was lower than group A(P<0.05). The plasma albumin of group B was higher than group A (P<0.05). After treatment, the systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) in two groups were lower and C3 level was higher than those pre-treatment(P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in above indicators between two groups. There was one case menelipsis in group A, and one case with transient increasing of creatinine. Conclusion The FK506+CTX+GC could reduce urine protein sifnificantly compared with CTX+GC without serious adverse reaction.
