Objective To explore the correlation among image acquisition parameter optimization,coronary angiography radiation dose and image quality.Methods 60 patients scheduled for elective percutaneous coronary angiography from January 2022 to January 2024 in our hospital were selected.Basic information and body measurements were collected.Patients were divided into three groups based on BMI,and patients in each BMI group were randomly assigned to the conventional mode group(coronary mode image acquisition:Cardiac Left Coronary,15fps)and the optimized mode group(electrophysiology mode image acquisition:Cardiac EP,7.5fps).Radiation dose data were collected.Image quality was evaluated using an image quality scoring table.Independent sample t-tests,Mann-Whitney U tests,and one-way ANOVA were used for comparisons between groups.Pearson analysis was used for correlations.Results Higher BMI and larger chest circumference were associated with higher radiation doses in a positive linear correlation.Within each BMI group,all radiation dose data(Dose-Area Product,Air Kerma and Chest skin dose)were lower in the optimized mode group than in the conventional mode group(all P<0.05,reduction rate 48.95%-70.59%).The difference in image quality scores between two groups was not statistically significant(P>0.05),and all images were of the required quality.Conclusions The radiation dose of percutaneous coronary angiography is affected by the patient's body size,image acquisition parameters,exposure time and many other factors.Optimizing the image acquisition parameters can ensure the quality of the image while realizing the low dose of radiation and reducing the radiation hazards to the patient and the operator.

To observe the symptom control, pulmonary function changes and safety of use of omalizumab in patients with moderate to severe allergic asthma for 1 year. A small sample self-controlled study before and after treatment was conducted to retrospective analysis involved 17 patients with moderate to severe asthma who received omalizumab therapy for 12 months in Peking University People's Hospital and Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2020 to December 2021. The clinical symptoms and pulmonary function changes were compared before treatment, after 6 months and 12 months of treatment, and the clinical data such as the use of other drugs and adverse reactions were observed. Statistical data are collected using the median method, and non-parametric paired Wilcoxon analysis was used for pairwise comparison. Before treatment with omalizumab, the patients' FeNO value was 79(58, 121) ppb, and the total serum IgE was 228(150.5, 345.5) IU/ml. After 6 months of omalizumab therapy, the percent predicted value of the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1%) before inhaled bronchodilator increased from 86.70(82.65, 91.35)% to 90.90(87.70, 95.85)% (Z=-3.626, P<0.001). The FEV1%pred after inhaled bronchodilator increased from 92.60(85.75, 96.90)% to 94.30(89.95, 98.15)% (Z=-2.178, P=0.029). The absolute value of improvement in FEV1 decreased from 150(95, 210)ml to 50(20, 125) ml (Z=-2.796, P=0.005), and the improvement rate decreased from 6.60(3.80, 7.85)% to 1.90(0.75, 4.85)% (Z=-2.922, P=0.003). After 12 months of treatment, the FEV1%pred before inhaled bronchodilator further increased to 92.90 (91.60, 98.15)% (Z=-3.575, -2.818, and P<0.001, 0.005 compared with before treatment and 6 months after treatment, respectively). The FEV1%pred after inhaled bronchodilator increased to 96.80 (91.90, 101.25)% (Z=-3.622, -1.638, and P<0.001, 0.008 compared with before treatment and after 6 months of treatment, respectively). The absolute value of improvement in FEV1 was 70 (35, 120) ml (P=0.004, 0.842 before treatment and 6 months after treatment, respectively), and the improvement rate was 3.0(1.0, 5.0)% (Z=-2.960, -0.166, and P=0.003, 0.868, compared with before treatment and after 6 months of treatment, respectively). After 12 months of treatment, ACT increased from 13 (10.5, 18) before treatment to 24 (23, 25) (Z=-3.626,P<0.001). Only 1 patient experienced an injection site skin reaction during treatment. Therefore, after 6 months and 12 months of treatment with omalizumab, the patient's lung function improved and symptoms were relieved, which could effectively prevent the acute exacerbation of asthma. Omalizumab treatment is safe and well tolerated, and no effect on blood pressure and blood glucose was observed.

Childhood obesity is a global public health problem, which can not only endangers children's health, but also might be an important cause of chronic diseases in adulthood. In recent years, with the in-depth development of precision medicine research, more and more research evidences have shown that there are interactions between environmental factors, such as early intrauterine environment, children's diet, physical activity and children's gene factor on the incidence of childhood obesity, which can result in or inhibit the incidence and development of childhood obesity. This paper summarizes the progress in research in this field to reveal the effects and potential mechanisms of genetic factors and environmental factors on the incidence of childhood obesity in order to provide reference for the precise prevention and control of childhood obesity under different genetic backgrounds.

Aim To investigate the involvement and mechanism of miR-619-5p in the proliferation, migration and invasion of human breast cancer cells. Methods The expression of miR-619-5p in breast cancer and normal breast tissue and cells was detected using bioinformatic analysis or qRT-PCR. After transfection with miR-619-5p mimics or inhibitors, the expression of miR-619-5p and EMT-related molecule mRNA was determined by qRT-PCR. Cell proliferation was detected using CCK-8 assay; cell migration and invasion capacity was estimated by the wound healing assay and Transwell assay. The protein levels of EMT-related molecules were analyzed by Western blot. The target genes of miR-619-5p were analyzed by bioinformatic a-nalysis, and a preliminary analysis of the potential target gene CREB1 was carried out. Results miR-619-5p was low expressed in breast cancer tissues and breast cancer cells. Compared with the control group, over-expression of miR-619-5p resulted in up-regula-tion of miR-619-5p expression levels and EMT epithelial markers, down-regulation of pro-EMT molecules and mesenchymal markers, impairment of cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and down-regulation of CREB1 expression. The results of the low miR-619-5p expression group were opposite to the above results. Conclusions In breast cancer tissue and cells, miR-619-5p expression is lower. miR-619-5p inhibits the proliferation, migration, invasion and EMT of breast cancer cells, and its possible mechanism of the effects may be targeting CREB1.
