Objective To investigate the effects of long non coding RNA MAGI2 antisense chain RNA3(LncRNA MAGI2-AS3)on the migration,invasion,and epithelial mesenchymal transition(EMT)of gastric cancer(GCa)cells by regulating the miR-194-5 p/caveolin-1(CAV1)axis.Methods Fifty-two GCa patients who underwent surgical resection in our hospital from August 2022 to December 2023 were selected.Cancer and adjacent tissues were collected,and AGS,MKN45,HGC-27,and GES1 cells were cultured in vitro.The expression of MAGI2-AS3,miR-194-5p,and CAV1 in tissue samples and cell lines was analyzed.AGS cells were randomly separated into AGS group,sh-AGS group sh-MAGI2-AS3 group,miR-NC group,and in miR-194-5p group.The proliferation,apoptosis,migration,and invasion of cells in each group were compared.Immunoblotting was applied to analyze the expression of E-cadherin,CAV1,proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA),N-cadherin,Bax,matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP2),and vimentin of cells in each group.Dual luciferase assay was applied to analyze the relationship between MAGI2-AS3 and miR-194-5p,and between miR-194-5p and CAV1.Results The expression of MAGI2-AS3 mRNA,CAV1 mRNA,and positive expression rate of CAV1 protein in GCa tissue increased,while the expression of miR-194-5p mRNA decreased(P＜0.05).The expression of MAGI2-AS3 mRNA,CAV1 mRNA,and CAV1 protein in HGC-27,MKN45,and AGS cells was higher than that of GES1 cells,the expression of miR-194-5p mRNA was lower than that of GES1 cells(P＜0.05).Compared with the AGS and sh-AGS groups,the cell absorbance,number of clones,invasion and migration,expression of CAV1,PCNA,N-cadherin,MMP2,and vimentin in sh-MAGI2-AS3 group decreased,the apoptosis rate,expression of E-cadherin,and Bax increased(P＜0.05).Compared with the miR-NC group and sh-MAGI2-AS3 group,the cell absorbance,number of clones,invasion and migration,expression of CAV1,PCNA,N-cadherin,MMP2,and vimentin in in-miR-194-5p group increased,the apoptosis rate,expression of E-cadherin,and Bax reduced(P＜0.05).ENCORI database found that there were multiple binding sites between MAGI2-AS3 and miR-194-5p,and between miR-194-5p and CAV1.Compared with the WT-MAGI2-AS3+miR-NC group,the luciferase activity in the WT-MAGI2-AS3+miR-194-5p group decreased(P＜0.05),while compared with the WT-CAV1+miR-NC group,the luciferase activity in the WT-CAV1+miR-194-5p group decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion LncRNA MAGI2-AS3 silencing can target miR-194-5p to downregulate CAV1,thereby inhibiting GCa cell migration,invasion,and EMT.

Objective:To explore the correlation between serum hepcidin antimicrobial peptide (HAMP), secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1), and regulator of G protein signaling 2 (RGS2) levels and the clinical pathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients, and their predictive value for postoperative recurrence or metastasis.Methods:A total of 92 gastric cancer patients treated at Handan First Hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected as the gastric cancer group, and 92 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group. The serum levels of HAMP, SPP1 and RGS2 were compared between the two groups. According to the mean levels of HAMP, SPP1, and RGS2 in the serum of gastric cancer patients, they were divided into HAMP high level group and HAMP low level group, SPP1 high level group and SPP1 low level group, RGS2 high level group and RGS2 low level group. The clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients with different levels of HAMP, SPP1 and RGS2 were compared respectively. After a median follow-up of 18 months, gastric cancer patients were divided into a non-recurrence or metastasis group ( n=59) and a recurrence and metastasis group ( n=33) based on whether the tumor recurred or metastasized. The serum levels of HAMP, SPP1, and RGS2 were compared between the two groups of patients. The predictive value of HAMP, SPP1 and RGS2 for postoperative recurrence or metastasis in patients with gastric cancer was analyzed by using the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:Compared with the control group, the gastric cancer group had higher levels of serum HAMP [ (52.28±5.44) ng/ml vs. (31.22±4.18) ng/ml] and SPP1 [ (55.96±6.43) ng/ml vs. (36.99±5.25) ng/ml] ( t=29.44, P<0.001; t=21.92, P<0.001), and lower level of RGS2 [ (3.72±0.66) mg/L vs. (5.11±0.87) mg/L) ] ( t=12.21, P<0.001). There were statistically significant differences in maximum tumor diameter ( χ2=13.07, P<0.001; χ2=6.71, P=0.010; χ2=10.56, P=0.001), TNM staging ( χ2=7.42, P=0.006; χ2=6.36, P=0.012; χ2=5.39, P=0.020), lymph node metastasis ( χ2=23.41, P<0.001; χ2=6.52, P=0.011; χ2=13.11, P<0.001), and differentiation degree ( χ2=9.01, P=0.003; χ2=7.97, P=0.005; χ2=15.29, P<0.001) between the gastric cancer patients in the HAMP high level group ( n=44) and the HAMP low level group ( n=48), the SPP1 high level group ( n=43) and the SPP1 low level group ( n=49), and the RGS2 high level group ( n=50) and the RGS2 low level group ( n=42). Compared with the non-recurrence or metastatic group, the recurrence and metastatic group had higher levels of serum HAMP [ (59.26±5.66) ng/ml vs. (48.37±4.28) ng/ml] and SPP1 [ (62.85±6.36) ng/ml vs. (52.11±5.38) ng/ml] level ( t=10.40, P<0.001; t=8.60, P<0.001), and lower level of RGS2 [ (3.01±0.48) mg/L vs. (4.12±0.69) mg/L] ( t=8.19, P<0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) values of serum HAMP, SPP1, and RGS2 levels alone for predicting postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients were 0.777, 0.813, and 0.778, respectively. The AUC value of the combination of the three indicators for predicting postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients was 0.871. The predictive efficacy of the combination of the three indicators for predicting postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients was better than that alone ( Z=2.51, P=0.035; Z=2.61, P=0.032; Z=2.71, P=0.029) . Conclusions:The levels of HAMP and SPP1 in the serum of gastric cancer patients increase, while the level of RGS2 decreases, and the levels of the three are related to the maximum tumor diameter, TNM staging, lymph node metastasis and differentiation degree, and their combined detection has higher predictive value for postoperative recurrence or metastasis in gastric cancer patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between impaired glucose regulation (IGR) and slow flow or no reflow (SF/NRF) during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Methods Clinical materials of 80 STEMI patients with SF/NRF and 84 STEMI patients without SF/NRF in the hospital from October 2021 to October 2022 were retrospectively collected, including blood glucose, total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnⅠ), fibrinogen, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), D-dimer, uric acid, homocysteine, the ratio of absolute value of neutrophils to absolute value of lymphocytes (NLR), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and 2 h postprandial blood glucose level. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of SF/NRF in STEMI patients with PCI; the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of fasting blood glucose and 2 h postprandial blood glucose levels for SF/NRF in STEMI patients with PCI. Results Compared with non-SF/NRF group, the levels of cTnⅠ, fibrinogen and HDL-C in SF/NRF group were significantly higher, while the levels of systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and NLR were significantly lower (P < 0.05). Compared with non-SF/NRF group, the stent diameter, stent length and the time from chest pain to catheter room in SF/NRF group were significantly longer (P < 0.05). The levels of fasting blood glucose and 2 h postprandial blood glucose in SF/NRF group were significantly higher than those in non-SF/NRF group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that fasting blood glucose and 2 h postprandial blood glucose were the influencing factors of SF/NRF in STEMI patients with PCI, and the area under the curve (AUC) of the combination of the two indicators for diagnosis of SF/NRF in STEMI patients during PCI was significantly higher than that by fasting blood glucose and 2 h postprandial blood glucose alone (Z=3.272, 4.369, P < 0.001). Conclusion IGR is related to SF/NRF during PCI in STEMI patients, and fasting blood glucose and 2 h postprandial blood glucose levels are the influencing factors of SF/NRF in STEMI patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum survivin,adenosine triphosphate bind-ing cassette transporter Al(ABCA1)and poor coronary collateral circulation(CCC)in patients with single coronary artery occlusion in acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods A total of 155 patients with single coronary artery occlusion in AMI admitted to Handan Fist Hospital from May 2021 to May 2023 were selected as the study objects,and were divided into poor CCC group(n=80)and good CCC group(n=75)according to their CCC status.Serum survivin and ABCA1 levels were compared between the two groups,univariate and multivariate Logistic regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors of poor CCC,and the effi-cacy of serum survivin and ABCA1 in predicting poor CCC was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results Compared with good CCC group,serum survivin and ABCA1 in poor CCC group were signifi-cantly decreased,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with good CCC group,Gensini score,creatinine kinase isoenzyme-MB(CK-MB),Killip heart function grade≥Ⅱ and history of hy-pertension in poor CCC group were significantly increased,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression model showed that high Gensini score,high CK-MB,Killip heart function grade≥Ⅱ and history of hypertension were risk factors for poor CCC(P＜0.05),while high sur-vivin and high ABCA1 were protective factors(P＜0.05).The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of the two indexes combined to predict poor CCC were 0.949,90.70％and 92.52％,which were significantly better than the single detection.Conclusion Serum survivin and ABCA1 are closely relate to poor CCC in pa-tients with single coronary artery occlusion in AMI,the lower the serum levels of survivin and ABCA1,the greater the risk of poor CCC,the combine detection of the two has a high predictive value for poor CCC in pa-tients with single coronary artery occlusion in AMI.

Objective:To resolve the issue of poor automatic segmentation of the bowel in women with pelvic tumors, a Dense V-Network model was established, trained and evaluated to accurately and automatically delineate the bowel of female patients with pelvic tumors.Methods:Dense Net and V-Net network models were combined to develop a Dense V-Network algorithm for automatic segmentation of 3D CT images. CT data were collected from 160 patients with cervical cancer, 130 of which were randomly selected as the training set to adjust the model parameters, and the remaining 30 were used as test set to evaluate the effect of automatic segmentation.Results:Eight parameters including Dice similarity coefficient (DSC) were utilized to quantitatively evaluate the segmentation effect. The DSC value, JD, ΔV, SI, IncI, HD (cm), MDA (mm), and DC (mm) of the small intestine were 0.86±0.03, 0.25±0.04, 0.10±0.07, 0.88±0.05, 0.85±0.05, 2.98±0.61, 2.40±0.45 and 4.13±1.74, which were better than those of any other single algorithm.Conclusion:Dense V-Network algorithm proposed in this paper can deliver accurate segmentation of the bowel organs. It can be applied in clinical practice after slight revision by physicians.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of voiding dysfunction after mid-urethral sling surgery for stress urinary incontinence.Methods Clinical data of 573 consecutive patients undergoing midurethral sling surgery from January 2003 to December 2010 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.All relative risk factors were evaluated by univariate and multivariate Logistic analysis to identify risk factors of voiding dysfunction.Results Voiding dysfunction occurred in 28 patients,with an incidence of 4.9％ (28/573).Univariate analysis showed that age,previous pelvic surgery,pre-operative postvoid residuals,maximum flow rate,average urine flow rate,Valsalva leak point pressure,concomitant anterior pelvic repair and operator performing＜50 procedures were the relative risk factors (P＜0.05) for voiding dysfunction.Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the maximum flow rate (Qmax) ≤ 15 ml/s (OR=3.782,P=0.003) was an independent risk factor for voiding dysfunction and surgery experience was its protection factors (OR=0.295,P=0.016).Conclusions Qmax ≤ 15 ml/s on preoperative urodynamic study is an independent risk factor for voiding dysfunction after mid-urethral sling procedure.Improving skill of surgery and strengthening technical training will help to reduce the incidence of this complication.

Molecular targeted therapy (MTT) refers to a new therapy designed to interfere with a specific molecular target or signaling pathway that may have a significant influence in tumor growth or progression. MTT can inhibit cell proliferation and induce apoptosis by specific interventions in the signaling pathways of tumor cells. MTT exhibits potential as an effective treatment against cancer. This approach can improve the ability to kill cancer cells and reduce damage to normal tissues. MTT has gradually been used clinically in treating cancer and shown advantages over traditional methods. This paper reviews research progress in this targeted therapy to treat gynecological cancer.

Objective To validate the four chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI) predictive equations based on serum creatinine (SCr) and cystatin C (Cys C) in Chinese CKD patients,and try to develop the GFR predictive equations for Chinese CKD patients.Methods254 CKD patients were randomly selected from four Grade ⅢA hospitals in different regions in China from September 2007 to December 2010.Clearance of dual plasma sampling 99mTc-DTPA was used to measure glomerular filtration rate (rGFR) in 254 CKD patients.The serum concentration of Cr and Cys C were measured.CKD-EPI SCr equation,Cys C equation,Cys C equation adjusted for age,sex and race,SCr/Cys C combinated equation adjusted for age,sex and race were used to estimate GRF ( labeled as eGFR1,eGFR2,eGFR3 and eGFR4,respectively).The correlation,bias and precision of eGFRs were compared with rGFR by Wilcoxon signed rank test,intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Spearman correlation analysis.The deviation degree between rGFR and different eGFRs was compared via Bland-Altman graph.The accuracy within 15％,25％,30％ ( P15,P25,P30) and the staging correctness of eGFR against CKD at different stages was calculated.ResultsThe rGFR in 254 CKD participants was [ 48.07 (26.19 -92.97 )] ml · min -1·(1.73 m2) -1.The Spearman correlatiou coefficients (CC) of eGFR and rGFR varied within the range of 0.873 - 0.896 ( P =0.000 ).The intra-class CC ( ICC ) varied within the range of 0.920 - 0.942.The correlation of eGFR4 was the best.The absolute deviations of 4 eGFRs and deviation precision were eGFR4 ＜eGFR3 ＜ eGFR2 ＜ eGFR1.The 95％ confidence intervals for the regression line of 4 eGFRs shown by Bland-Altman graphs were 92.5,87.3,83.0 and 76.1 ml · min-1 · ( 1.73 m2 ) -1,respectively,with the best result of eGFR4.For P30,the correctness of 4 eGFRs were eGFR4 ＞ eGFR3 ＞ eGFR2 ＞ eGFR1,but no significant difference was found by Chi square test (x2 =6.448,P =0.092).The overall correctness rate in 4 eGFRs against CKD stages were 48.4％ -57.5％,with the highest consistency of eGFR4,but their staging correctnessratewerenotideal(Kappa values were 0.405,0.348,0.366 and 0.463,respectively).Conclusions Compared with CKD-EPI SCr equation,no advantage was found in CKD-EPI Cys C equation.The Cys C equation adjusted by age and sex shows a little advantages over CKD-EPI Cys C equation in bias,precision,correlation and accuracy.The CKD-EPI SCr/Cys C combinated equation adjusted by age,sex and race has advantage over other three equations not only in bias,precision,correlation and accuracy,but also in staging correctness.However,the validation of this equation is still not fairly ideal for Chinese CKD patients.Based on these findings,it is essential for the Chinese CKD patients to develop SCr/Cys C combined predictive equation which adjusted by age,sex or other factors.(Chin J Lab Med,2012,35:798-804)

ObjectiveTo investigate the impacts of different serum creatinine detection methods,including Jaffe and enzymatic methods,on the efficacy of different GFR estimation equations in CKD patients in China.MethodsrGFR of 176 patients with CKD were determined by dual plasma sample method 99mTc-diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA) plasma clearance rate.Serum creatinine was detected with four kinds of creatinine reagents from different manufacturers.Cockcroft-Gault Equation corrected for body surface area (CG/BSA),simplified Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation,IDMS-traceable MDRD equation,CKD epidemiology collaborative research (CKD-EPI) equation and two Chinese simplified MDRD equation (project group equation 1,2) were applied to calculate estimated GFR (eGFR)respectively.eGFRwerecomparedwithrGFRforthecorrelation, deviation, precisionand30％ accuracy.ResultsThe mean rGFR of 176 patients with CKD,was [ 40.70 ( 19.41 -84.35 ) ] ml · min- 1 ·( 1.73 m2 ) -1.For all GFR estimation equations,there were significant differences in eGFR results between enzymatic method and Jaffe method,when analyzed by the Wilcoxon signed-rank test.eGFR results assessed by two enzymatic creatinine detection systems showed no significant difference,while eGFR results analyzed by two Jaffe detection system were significantly different.The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of eGFR and rGFR ranged from 0.879 to 0.923 by Jaffe method,while from 0.925 to 0.946 by enzymatic creatinine method.ICC and Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant correlation between eGFR and rGFR,and the correlation was better when using enzymatic method.Bland-Altman plots indicated that large deviation occurred in the high value area of GFR using various equations.However,deviation with the enzymatic creatinine method was smaller than that with the Jaffe method. When rGFR ≥ 60 ml · min- 1 ·(1.73 m2) -1,the 30％ accuracy of eGFR using enzymatic creatinine method for all six equations was between 68.3％ and 90.0％,while it was between 41％ and 75％ when using Jaffe method. The 30％ accuracy of eGFR using enzymatic creatinine method was significantly higher than that using picric acid method for these equations except for the project group equation 1.When rGFR ＜60 ml · min -1 · ( 1.73 m2 ) -1,the 30％accuracy of eGFR using both methods was between 39.7％ -49.1％,40.5％ -52.6％respectively,and the difference of data showed no statistical significance.For the same equation,there was a significant differernce in 30％ accuracy of eGFR between two enzymatic creatinine detection systems,while there was no significant differernce between two Jaffe creatinine detection systems.ConclusionsA significant difference was demonstrated in the same GFR evaluation equation using two different creatinine detection methods (Jaffe method and enzymatic method).The correlation between rGFR and eGFR,the degree of deviation,and accuracy of eGFR results assessed by enzymatic creatinine method were better than those by Jaffe method.The eGFR results assessed by different enzymatic detection systems revealed no significant difference.
