Objective:To explore effect of Glioma-associated oncogene family zinc finger 1(GLI1)on hypoxia induced trans-formation of NR8383 to M1 phenotype and development of pulmonary hypertension(PH).Methods:Fifteen adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group,hypoxia PH model group and hypoxic PH with GANT61 treatment group,with 5 rats in each group.PH related indexes of rats were detected by small animal ultrasound and right cardiac catheter experiment to determine effect of GLI1 specific inhibitor GANT61 on progression of PH.Pulmonary arterial thickness was measured by HE staining.α-SMA and M1 polarization markers TNF-α and IL-1β expressions were determined by immunohistochemistry.M1 polarization markers CD86 and TNF-α expressions were determined by immunofluorescence.GLI1 expression and NF-κB protein were detected by Western blot.mRNA expressions of iNOS,CD86,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-12 were detected by qRT-PCR.CHIP-PCR verified that GLI1 regulates NF-κB promoter activity.IL-12 content was detected by ELISA.Rat pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells proliferation was detected by CCK-8.Results:GLI1 inhibitor GANT61 could alleviate symptoms of PH in hypoxic rats(P<0.05).Compared with hypoxic group,inhibition of GLI1 reduced expressions of TNF-α and IL-1β in rat lung tissue(P<0.05).In cell experiments,hypoxia induced M1 polarization of NR8383 by up-regulating GLI1 to activate NF-κB pathway,GLI1 overexpression increased expressions of iNOS,CD86,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-12 in M1 macrophages(P<0.05).NR8383 culture supernatants could stimulate pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell proliferation(P<0.05)and contribute to development of PH.Conclusion:Hypoxia activates NF-κB pathway by up-regulating GLI1 to induce M1 polarization of macrophages contributes to development of PH.

Objective:To prepare recombinant protein of group 36 allergen of Dermatophagoides farinae(Der f 36),to deter-mine its immunogenicity and bioinformatics analysis was performed.Methods:Nucleic acid sequence coding for Der f 36 was obtained and artificially synthesized,pET-28a(+)was inserted to construct pET-28a(+)-Der f 36 plasmid and transformed into BL21(DE3)receptor cells.After expressed and purified in BL21(DE3),recombinant allergen rDer f 36 was obtained,recombinant protein rDer f 36 was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot.Serum IgE binding rates of rDer f 36 was determined by IgE-ELISA.Cross-reactivity between rDer f 36 and rDer p 36 was detected by IgE-ELISA inhibition assay.HNEpC cells were cultured with rDer f 36 for 24 h and cytokines were detected.Bioinformatics softwares were used to analyze physicochemical properties and structures of Der f 36 and Der p 36.Results:Coding gene for Der f 36 was obtained with a total length of 690 bp,whose molecular weight was 25.6 kD;serum IgE binding rate of rDer f 36 was 42.1%by IgE-ELISA;IgE-ELISA inhibition assay showed that rDer p 36 had 40%(8/20)inhibition rate(>50%)for rDer f 36,with an average inhibition rate of 52.98%.Compared with control group,HNEpC cells cultured with rDer f 36 showed that IL-6,IL-8,IL-33,IL-25 and TSLP expressions had increased;bioinformatics analyses show that sequence consistency of Der f 36 and Der p 36 was 77.63%,with similar physicochemical properties.Secondary structure analysis showed that both of them contained α helix,β-turn and random coils,and content of random coils was the highest;structure of C2 domains was also highly overlapping(RMSD=0.046).Conclusion:Recombinant allergen rDer f 36 is successfully prepared with good immunogenicity,laying foundation for diagnosis and treatment of dust mite allergen single component.High similarity in physical and chemical properties,secondary structure,and tertiary structure between Der f 36 and Der p 36 determines their cross reactivity.

Objective To investigate the value of combined serum levels of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin(NGAL)and growth differentiation factor 15(GDF-15)in diagnosis of renal injury in elderly patients with H-type hypertension.Methods A total of 177 patients with H-type hypertension admitted to Department of Neurology and Department of General Medicine of the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College from April 2021 to June 2022 were enrolled,and based on their estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),they were divided into the renal im-pairment group(81 cases)and normal renal function group(96 cases).General data and laboratory indicators were collected in the two groups.ROC curve analysis was used to evaluate the diagnos-tic value of combined NGAL and GDF-15 levels for renal injury in the elderly patients with H-type hypertension,and Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlation between serum NGAL and GDF-15 levels and renal injury in the patients.Results SBP level was significantly higher in the renal impairment group than the normal renal function group[148.53±14.62 mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)vs 138.75±13.36 mm Hg,P＜0.01],but no such difference was observed in DBP level between the two groups(P＞0.05).The levels of creatinine(Cr),urea nitrogen(BUN),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),cystatin C(Cys C),urinary microalbumin(MA),NGAL and GDF-15 levels were obviously higher in the renal impairment group than the group with normal renal function(P＜0.01).ROC curve analysis showed that the combined detection of NGAL and GDF-15 levels was significantly higher than that of the two indicators alone(P＜0.01).Pearson correlation analysis indicated that serum NGAL and GDF-15 levels were positively correlated with Cr,BUN,β2-MG,Cys C and MA levels(P＜0.01).Conclusion Serum NGAL and GDF-15 levels are elevated in elderly H-type hypertension patients.Combined detection of the two indicators has higher value in the diagnosis of renal injury in elderly H-type hypertension patients.

Objective:To compare the diagnostic efficacy of 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/ CT and multi-parameter magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) for pelvic lymph node metastases in prostate cancer patients who received neoadjuvant endocrinology or not after initial diagnosis. Methods:Data of 52 patients with moderate and high-risk prostate cancer admitted to Xijing Hospital from February to October 2023, aged (65.8±6.6) years, preoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA) 26.67 (13.09, 84.89) ng/ml, were retrospectively analyzed. Before operation, there were 28 cases of cT 2stage, 16 cases of cT 3 stage and 8 cases of cT 4 stage. There were 22 cases of cN 0 and 30 cases of cN 1. All patients underwent 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and mpMRI at the same time, and were diagnosed positive lymph nodes in 28 and 21 cases, respectively. Risk stratification were high risk in 45 cases, and medium risk in 7 cases. According to the preoperative endocrine treatment, they were divided into the newly diagnosed group without treatment (24 cases) and the endocrine treated group (28 cases), whose ages were (65.0±7.1) years and (66.8±6.1) years, respectively. Preoperative PSA was 26.17 (16.73, 61.18) ng/ml and 27.32 (11.94, 130.18) ng/ml, respectively. Gleason scores ≤7 were in 10 cases (41.7%) and 6 cases (21.4%), and Gleason scores >7 were in 14 cases (58.3%) and 22 cases (78.6%), respectively. There were 15 (62.5%) and 13 (46.4%) cases of cT 1-2 stage, and 9 (37.5%) and 15 (53.6%) cases of cT 3-4 stage, respectively. There were 16 (66.7%) and 6 (21.4%) cases of stage N 0, 8 (33.3%) and 22 (78.6%) cases of stage N 1, respectively. There were 22 (91.7%) and 20 (71.4%) cases of stage M 0, 2 (8.3%) and 8 (28.6%) cases of stage M 1, respectively. PET/CT diagnosis of lymph node positive was in 9 cases (37.5%) and 19 cases (67.9%), and mpMRI diagnosis of lymph node positive was in 5 cases (20.8%) and 16 cases (57.1%). The number of positive lymph nodes diagnosed by PET/CT was 13 (72.2%) and 47 (90.1%), and the number of positive lymph nodes diagnosed by mpMRI was 8 (44.4%) and 32 (61.5%). There was no significant difference ( P>0.05). All patients underwent radical prostatectomy as well as enlarged pelvic lymph node resection. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of the two imaging examinations in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis were compared according to the results of postoperative pathological examination of lymph nodes. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare the accuracy of the two imaging tests in the diagnosis of pelvic lymph node metastasis in the newly diagnosed untreated group and the endocrine treated group. Results:In this study, of 52 cases, 26 (50.0%) had positive lymph nodes by pathological examination. In this study, a total of 681 lymph nodes were dissected, with 70 lymph nodes (10.28%) being pathologically positive, and the positive rate of 26 patients was 17.99% (70/389). The PET/CT and mpMRI detection rates of 26 node-positive patients were 92.3% (24/26) and 57.7% (15/26), respectively. There were 9 (37.5%) and 17 (60.7%) lymph node positive patients in the untreated group and the endocrine therapy group, respectively. There were 320 and 361 lymph nodes were clear, with 18 (5.6%) and 52 (14.4%) positive lymph nodes, respectively. The detection rates of PET/CT and mpMRI were 88.89% (8/9) and 94.12% (16/17)in the untreated group, and 44.44% (4/9) and 64.71% (11/17)in the endocrine treated group, respectively. In the newly treated group, the area under the curve (AUC) of PET/CT and mpMRI for diagnosing positive lymph nodes were 0.911 and 0.689 ( P=0.027), the sensitivity were 88.9% and 44.4%, and the specificity were 93.3% and 93.3%, respectively. PPV were 88.9% and 80.0%, and NPV were 93.3% and 73.7%, respectively. In the endocrine therapy group, the AUC of PET/CT and mpMRI for lymph node positive diagnosis were 0.834 and 0.596 ( P=0.011), the sensitivity were 94.1% and 64.7%, the specificity were 72.7% and 54.5%, and the PPV were 84.2% and 68.8%, respectively. NPV were 88.9% and 50.0%, respectively. Conclusions:For prostate cancer patients, regardless of whether they receive neoadjuvant endocrine therapy, 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT can accurately detect pelvic lymph node metastasis, and the diagnostic efficacy is significantly better than that of mpMRI.

Objective To explore the relationship between collateral circulation and the prognosis of acute ischemic stroke(AIS)patients with successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy.Methods A total of 75 AIS patients who received mechanical thrombectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from September 2020 to May 2022 were selected as the research subjects.The clinical data of the patients were collected.According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score at 90 days after operation,the patients were divided into the good prognosis group(mRS score≤2)and the poor prognosis group(mRS score ≥3).Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of AIS patients with successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy.There were three types of collateral circulation:symmetrical collateral circulation,malignant collateral circulation,and other collateral circulation.The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score at admission,the NIHSS score at discharge and changes of the NIHSS score of patients with different collateral circulations were compared.Results Among the 75 patients,43 had a good prognosis,and 32 had a poor prognosis.The incidence of poor prognosis was 42.67％.Univariate analysis showed that history of diabetes,time from onset to puncture(OPT),collateral circulation and NIHSS score were the factors effecting the prognosis of AIS patients with successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy(P＜0.05).Age,sex,history of atrial fibrillation,history of hypertension,history of smoking,history of stroke,thrombolytic therapy and modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction grade were not related to the prognosis of AIS patients with successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy(P＞0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that symmetrical collateral circulation,malignant collateral circulation,history of diabetes and OPT were independent influencing factors for the prognosis of AIS patients with successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the admission NIHSS score among the patients with different collateral circulations(P＞0.05).The discharge NIHSS score of patients with symmetrical collateral circulation was significantly lower than that of patients with malignant collateral circulation,and the change in the NIHSS score was more significant than that of patients with malignant collateral circulation(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the discharge NIHSS score and change in the NIHSS score between patients with symmetrical collateral circulation and patients with other collateral circulation(P＞0.05),and between patients with malignant collateral circulation and patients with other collateral circulation(P＞0.05).Conclusion Symmetrical collateral circulation,malignant collateral circulation are independent factor affecting the prognosis of AIS patients with successful recanalization after mechanical thrombectomy.Symmetrical collateral circulation may help improve the neurological function of patients after mechanical thrombectomy,and malignant collateral circulation may lead to deterioration of neurological function in patients undergoing mechanical thrombectomy.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks,and to provide a basis for early identification of BPD in twin preterm infants in clinical practice.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks who were admitted to 22 hospitals nationwide from January 2018 to December 2020.According to their conditions,they were divided into group A(both twins had BPD),group B(only one twin had BPD),and group C(neither twin had BPD).The risk factors for BPD in twin preterm infants were analyzed.Further analysis was conducted on group B to investigate the postnatal risk factors for BPD within twins.Results A total of 904 pairs of twins with a gestational age of<34 weeks were included in this study.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with group C,birth weight discordance of>25%between the twins was an independent risk factor for BPD in one of the twins(OR=3.370,95%CI:1.500-7.568,P<0.05),and high gestational age at birth was a protective factor against BPD(P<0.05).The conditional logistic regression analysis of group B showed that small-for-gestational-age(SGA)birth was an independent risk factor for BPD in individual twins(OR=5.017,95%CI:1.040-24.190,P<0.05).Conclusions The development of BPD in twin preterm infants is associated with gestational age,birth weight discordance between the twins,and SGA birth.

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.

Bone organoids can simulate the complex structure and function of the bone tissues, which makes them a frontier technology in organoid researches. Bone organoids show a tremendous potential of applications in bone disease modeling, bone injury repair, and medicine screening. Although advancements have been made so far in constructing bone organoids with functional structures like mineralization, bone marrow, trabecular bone, callus, woven bone, etc, the researches in this field are confronted with numerous challenges such as lack of standardized construction strategies and unified evaluation criteria, which limits their further promotion and application. To standardize researches in bone organoids, the Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, the Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, the Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and the Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine organized related experts to formulate Expert consensus on the construction, evaluation, and application of bone organoids ( version 2024) based on an evidence-based approach. A total of 17 recommendations were put forth, aiming to standardize researches and clinical applications of bone organoids and enhance their value in scientific research and clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of intravascular intervention in ruptured intracranial vertebral artery dissecting aneurysm (IVADA).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed; 25 patients with ruptured IVADA (25 aneurysms) admitted to Department of Neurosurgery, First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from January 2020 to June 2023, were chosen. Aneurysm and parent artery occlusion or stent-assisted spring coil embolization were performed according to location of the aneurysms, degrees of aneurysm immediate embolization were evaluated by Raymond grading, and perioperative adverse events were recorded. The patients were followed up for 6-48 months, and aneurysm recurrence was determined according to DSA results; prognoses were assessed by modified Rankin Scale (mRS), with scores of 0-2 as good prognosis and scores of 3-6 as poor prognosis.Results:All 25 patients had unilateral ruptured IVADA, 10 (40%) received aneurysm and parent artery occlusion (occlusion of dissection segment) and 15 (60%) received stent-assisted embolization. Immediately after surgery, 19 patients (76%) had grading I embolization, 4 (16%) grading II embolization, and 2 (8%) grading III embolization. No aneurysm rupture or stent related thrombosis was observed during procedure; 3 patients (12%) died after procedure, with postoperative rebleeding in 1, postoperative cerebellar infarction with respiratory failure in 1, and severe pneumonia in 1. In the 22 survivals, 18 had good prognosis and 4 had poor prognosis. In the 5 relapsed patients (all accepted stent-assisted embolization), 4 underwent re-intervention, and one with visualization at aneurysm neck was relatively stable on re-examination and accepted regular follow up.Conclusion:Aneurysm and parent artery occlusion can be used for non-dominant vertebral artery aneurysms not involving posterior inferior cerebellar artery, whose recurrence rate is lower than that of stent-assisted coil embolization.
