AIM:This study examined the inhibitory effect of peiminine on the human colonic adenocarcino-ma cell line SW480 and explored the underlying mechanisms.METHODS:SW480 and human normal colonic epithelial CCD-841CoN cells were treated with different concentrations of peiminine and subjected to the CCK-8 assay to select the optimal treatment time and concentration of the compound.SW480 cell migration and invasion were evaluated by the wound-healing and Transwell assays.Cell cycle progression was analyzed by flow cytometry.The expression levels of cell cycle-related proteins were examined by Western blot.SW480 xenograft tumor model was established in nude mice to ex-amine the effect of peiminine on tumor growth and the expression of cell cycle-related proteins in vivo.RESULTS:Peimi-nine(110 mg/L)significantly inhibited the proliferation of SW480 cells compared with the control group(P<0.01),caused cell cycle arrest at G1 phase,and significantly downregulated the expression of cyclin dependent kinase 2(CDK2),CDK4,CDK6,cyclin D1,p-Rb/Rb,E2F1,E2F3,and E2F4(P<0.05).Peiminine inhibited SW480 xenograft tumor growth,prolonged the survival of model mice,and affected the expression of CDK2,CDK4,CDK6,and cyclin D1 in tu-mor tissues.CONCLUSION:Peiminine promotes G1 phase arrest by down-regulating the expression of CDK2,CDK4,CDK6,and cyclin D1,thereby inhibiting the proliferation of SW480 cells.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma and their predictive predictive value.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was used to analyze the data of 509 patients with severe trauma in the trauma database of the Trauma Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2017 to December 2021, including 377 males and 132 females, aged 18-94 years [53(42, 65)years]. Injury severity score (ISS) was 16-75 points [22(18, 29)points]. Injured parts included the head and neck in 409 patients (80.35%), the chest in 328(64.44%), the abdomen in 193(37.91%), the pelvis in 142(27.90%), the spine in 79(15.52%), and the limb in 247(48.53%). According to the clinical outcome during the hospital stay, the patients were divided into survival group ( n=390) and non-survival group ( n=119). Baseline and clinical data of the two groups were compared, including gender, age, cause of injury (traffic injury, fall from height, sharp instrument injury, etc.), injury site (head and neck, chest, abdomen, pelvis, spine, limb), vital signs on admission (temperature, systolic blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate), blood tests on admission [hemoglobin, platelets, prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), international normalized ratio (INR), fibrinogen (FIB)], Glasgow coma scale (GCS) upon admission to the emergency room, revised trauma score (RTS) upon admission to the emergency room, ISS after whole-body CT examination, quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score upon admission to the emergency room, and INR combined with qSOFA score. The baseline and clinical data of the survival group and the non-survival group were first compared with univariate analysis. Then, the independent risk factors of in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma were determined by multivariate Logistic stepwise regression (forward and backward). Based on the above data, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated with Medcalc statistical software to analyze the efficacy of each risk factor in assessing in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma. Results:Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age, injury site, temperature, systolic blood pressure, hemoglobin, platelet, PT, APTT, INR, FIB, GCS, RTS, ISS, qSOFA score, and INR combined with qSOFA score between the two groups ( P<0.05 or 0.01), while there were no significant differences in gender, cause of injury, heart rate, and respiratory rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that age, systolic blood pressure, APTT, ISS, and INR combined with qSOFA score were significantly correlated with in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma ( P<0.01). ROC curve analysis results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma predicted by age, systolic blood pressure, APTT, ISS, and INR combined with qSOFA score were 0.63(95% CI 0.59, 0.68) and 0.60(95% CI 0.55, 0.64), 0.66(95% CI 0.62, 0.70), 0.73(95% CI 0.69, 0.77), and 0.75(95% CI 0.72, 0.80), respectively. Conclusions:Age, systolic blood pressure, APTT, ISS, and INR combined with qSOFA score are the independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with severe trauma. ISS and INR combined qSOFA score can better predict in-hospital mortality of patients with severe trauma than age, systolic blood pressure and APTT.

The traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in pediatric care has a long history，proven efficacy，and distinctive characteristics.The China Association of Chinese Medicine has organized a series of youth salons to discuss the clinical advantages of treating diseases.Experts at this seminar proposed that the superior disease categories in pediatric TCM are significant for showcasing the unique strengths and advantages of TCM in the treatment of pediatric diseases，enhancing diagnostic and treatment levels，inheriting TCM knowledge，promoting the integration of TCM and Western medicine，and meeting patients' needs.The strengths of pediatric TCM are summed up as "having what others do not，excelling at what others have，being special in what others excel at，and ensuring safety in what others specialize in." The scope of superiority in pediatric TCM covers multiple systems，including respiratory，digestive，endocrine，psychological，and dermatological systems.This article summarized the advantages of TCM in treating 13 diseases discussed in the salon，such as upper respiratory tract infections，coughs，pneumonia，allergic rhinitis，bronchial asthma，atopic dermatitis，functional dyspepsia，functional constipation，enuresis，marginal short stature，simple obesity，attention deficit hyperactivity disorder，and tic disorders.The overall advantages were reflected in three aspects：First，the holistic concept and treatment based on syndrome differentiation in TCM highlight the advantage of treating the root causes of diseases，making the treatment methodical and precise.Second，most traditional Chinese herbs are natural and have strong safety profiles.Third，TCM treatment methods are abundant，especially the external treatment methods，which are widely used in pediatrics，highly accepted by parents，and have definite efficacy，as well as good safety and compliance.

Approximately 25%of cancers worldwide are related to obesity and sedentary lifestyle.Changing behavior(exer-cise)may be a cost-effective means of prevention and treatment.Studies have found that exercise plays an important role in reducing cancer risk,inhibiting tumor growth,improving cancer-related quality of life,and improving the effectiveness of treatment.However,this protection mechanism is largely unclear.Clarifying the mechanism of action is essential to fully exploit the potential of exercise therapy,this article reviews the possible mechanisms for exercise to reduce the risk of cancer.

Objective To investigate the correlation between the level of N-terminal pro-Brain natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)and cardiorespiratory fitness following acute exposure to high altitude.Methods Forty-six subjects were recruited from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University in June 2022,including 19 males and 27 females.After completing cardiopulmonary exercise test(CPET),serological detection of myocardial cell-related markers,and multiple metabolites at a plain altitude(300 meters above sea level),all subjects flew to a high-altitude location(3900 meters above sea level).Biomarker testing and CPET were repeated on the second and third days after arrival at high altitude.Changes in serum biomarker and key CPET indicators before and after rapid ascent to high altitude were compared,and the correlation between serum levels of various myocardial cell-related markers and metabolites and high altitude cardiorespiratory fitness was analyzed.Results Compared with the plain altitude,there was a significant decrease in maximal oxygen uptake after rapid ascent to high altitude[(25.41±6.20)ml/(kg.min)vs.(30.17±5.01)ml/(kg.min),P<0.001].Serum levels of NT-proBNP,Epinephrine(E),plasma renin activity(PRA),angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ),angiotensin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2)and leptin(LEP)significantly increased,with all differences being statistically significant(P<0.05)after acute high altitude exposure.In contrast,no statistically significant differences were observed for creatine kinase MB(CK-MB),cardiac troponin I(cTnI),myoglobin(Myo)and norepinephrine(NE)(P>0.05).Correlation analysis showed a significant negative correlation between NT-proBNP at plain altitude(r=-0.768,P<0.001)and at high altitude(r=-0.791,P<0.001)with maximal oxygen uptake at high altitude.Multivariate linear regression analysis indicated that maximal oxygen uptake at plain altitude(t=2.069,P=0.045),NT-proBNP at plain altitude(t=-2.436,P=0.020)and at high altitude(t=-3.578,P=0.001)were independent influencing factors of cardiorespiratory fitness at high altitude.Conclusion Cardiorespiratory fitness significantly decreases after rapid ascent to high altitude,and the baseline NT-proBNP level at plain altitude is closely related to cardiorespiratory fitness at high altitude,making it a potential predictor indicator for high altitude cardiorespiratory fitness.

OBJECTIVE To explore the way to re-use epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors （EGFR-TKI） in patients with EGFR-TKI-induced interstitial pneumonia （IP）， using osimertinib as an example. METHODS The IP treatment regimen and re-use of EGFR-TKI regimen in a patient who developed IP after the use of osimertinib were analyzed. And a literature review was made by combining the characteristics of the cases which reported in the literature and the characteristics of this case. RESULTS The patient’s IP symptoms due to treatment with osimertinib had resolved after treatment. The patient’s IP symptoms also did not worsen after using almonertinib in combination with hormones as re-use of EGFR-TKI regimen. However， almonertinib was discontinued as the patient experienced disease progression. The adverse reactions of IP needed to be dealt with in time， the EGFR-TKI should be discontinued and symptomatic treatment should be given. CONCLUSIONS EGFR-TKI targeted therapy could be re-selected by replacing EGFR-TKI， adjusting the dose of EGFR-TKI， and using hormones in combination. EGFR-TKI-induced adverse drug reactions of IP are rare， but need to be observed closely. If other EGFR-TKI is used， close monitoring of adverse reactions and curative effects are also required in order to adjust the patient’s treatment plan in time.

Objective:To compare the clinical effects of acute shortening-lengthening technique with antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport technique for the treatment of segmental tibial defects after trauma.Methods:The clinical data of 58 patients with large tibial defects treated by Ilizarov technique in Xi′an Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University from May 2014 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Thirty patients were treated by acute shortening-lengthening (group A), and they were divided into those who were successful in one-time shortening during operation (group A1) and those who needed gradual shortening after operation (group A2) according to different shortening conditions. And 28 patients by antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport (group B). The external fixation time (EFT) and external fixation index (EFI) of the two groups were compared. Bone defect healing and limb functions were evaluated according to the Association for the Study and Application of the Method of Ilizarov (ASAMI) criteria. Complications were compared by Paley classification. The measurement data of normal distribution were expressed as ± s, and t-test was used for comparison between groups; the count data were expressed as n(%), and the chi-square test, Fisher exact probability method or Mann-Whitney U test were used for comparison between groups. Results:Patients were followed for(27.5±5.1)months. There was no significant difference in EFT, EFI, bone defect healing and limb functions between the two groups( P>0.05). The incidence of Grade-Ⅱ[41.2% (7/17)], Grade-Ⅲ [47.1% (8/17)] pin-tract infection in group A1 and Grade-Ⅱ[46.2% (6/13)], Grade-Ⅲ pin-tract [53.8% (7/13)] in group A2 was significantly higher than those in group B[14.3% (4/28)], [17.9% (5/28)] ( P<0.05). The number of complications per capita in group A1 [(1.4±0.3) times/case] and in group A2 [(1.5±0.3) times/case]was significantly higher than that in group B [(1.1±0.5) times/case]. Conclusions:Patients can be cured successfully by both acute shortening-lengthening and bone transport techniques. Compared with acute shortening-lengthening group, the complication incidence in antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport group was lower, especially, the infection-related complications. Therefore, antibiotic calcium sulfate-loaded bone transport technique has a greater application prospect in patients with large segmental bone defects caused by infection or osteomyelitis.

italic>Tussilago farfara L. is a perennial herb of Tussilago genus in the Compositae family. Its dried buds and leaves have good biological activities and have a long history of medicinal use in China and Europe. In this paper, we investigated the whole chloroplast genome characteristics, sequence duplication, structural variation and phylogeny of the Tussilago farfara L. After sequencing the Tussilago farfara L. chloroplast genome using Illumination technology, the complete Tussilago farfara L. chloroplast genome was further obtained by assembly and annotation, followed by a series of inverted repeat-large single copy/small single copy region contraction and expansion analysis, genome sequence variation, etc. The sequences of 13 homologous plants downloaded from NCBI were used to construct a neighbor-joining phylogenetic tree. The results showed that the total GC content of the chloroplast genome was 37.4% and the length was 150 300 bp; 125 genes were annotated, including 82 protein-coding genes, 35 tRNAs and 8 rRNAs; 148 (simple sequence repeats, SSR) loci were detected, and the relative synonymous codon usage showed that 31 codons out of 64 codons had a usage of >1. In the phylogenetic analysis, the chloroplast genomes of the seven species of Asteraceae, including the Yulin Tussilago farfara L., were highly conserved, and the sequence variation of the (large single-copy, LSC) and (small single-copy, SSC) regions was higher than that of the (inverted repeat, IR) region. This is in general agreement with the reported phylogeny of Yulin Tussilago farfara L. In this study, we obtained a high quality chloroplast genome and analyzed its genome characteristics, codon preference, SSR characteristics, SC/IR boundary, sequence variation and phylogeny, which can provide a basis for species identification, genetic diversity analysis and resource development of this medicinal plant.
