Objective:To observe the effects of high index of nutritional quality (INQ) enteral nutrition on clinical outcomes in elderly patients with acute heart failure. Methods:70 elderly patients with acute heart failure who had nutritional risk and needed nasal-feeding from the Department of Geriatrics of Hangzhou Ninth People's Hospital and the 903 Hospital of PLA Joint Support Force Hospital were randomly divided into observation group (n=35) and control group (n=35). Patients in the observation group was treated with high INQ enteral nutrition. After 4 weeks of intervention, the difference of energy and protein supply, parenteral nutrition use, nutrition index, cardiac function index and incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reaction were compared between the two groups. Results:After intervention, the energy and protein supply of nasal-feeding in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05) , and the amount of parenteral nutrition used in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The nutritional indexes and cardiac function indexes of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before intervention, and the nutritional status of the patients in the observation group was improved more significantly (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of gastrointestinal adverse reactions between the two groups (P>0.05) . Conclusion:High INQ enteral nutrition can meet the nutritional requirements of elderly patients with heart failure, reduce the use of parenteral nutrition, improve the nutritional status, and promote the recovery of cardiac function.

Chemical cleaning and disinfection are crucial steps for eliminating infection in root canal treatment.However,irrigant selection or irrigation procedures are far from clear.The vapor lock effect in the apical region has yet to be solved,impeding irrigation efficacy and resulting in residual infections and compromised treatment outcomes.Additionally,ambiguous clinical indications for root canal medication and non-standardized dressing protocols must be clarified.Inappropriate intracanal medication may present side effects and jeopardize the therapeutic outcomes.Indeed,clinicians have been aware of these concerns for years.Based on the current evidence of studies,this article reviews the properties of various irrigants and intracanal medicaments and elucidates their effectiveness and interactions.The evolution of different kinetic irrigation methods,their effects,limitations,the paradigm shift,current indications,and effective operational procedures regarding intracanal medication are also discussed.This expert consensus aims to establish the clinical operation guidelines for root canal irrigation and a position statement on intracanal medication,thus facilitating a better understanding of infection control,standardizing clinical practice,and ultimately improving the success of endodontic therapy.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is an extremely malignant pulmonary vascular disease of unknown etiology. ADAR1 is an RNA editing enzyme that converts adenosine in RNA to inosine, thereby affecting RNA expression. However, the role of ADAR1 in PH development remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the biological role and molecular mechanism of ADAR1 in PH pulmonary vascular remodeling. Overexpression of ADAR1 aggravated PH progression and promoted the proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Conversely, inhibition of ADAR1 produced opposite effects. High-throughput whole transcriptome sequencing showed that ADAR1 was an important regulator of circRNAs in PH. CircCDK17 level was significantly lowered in the serum of PH patients. The effects of ADAR1 on cell cycle progression and proliferation were mediated by circCDK17. ADAR1 affects the stability of circCDK17 by mediating A-to-I modification at the A5 and A293 sites of circCDK17 to prevent it from m1A modification. We demonstrate for the first time that ADAR1 contributes to the PH development, at least partially, through m1A modification of circCDK17 and the subsequent PASMCs proliferation. Our study provides a novel therapeutic strategy for treatment of PH and the evidence for circCDK17 as a potential novel marker for the diagnosis of this disease.

Complex noise with impulse or impact property is common in workplace, and its damage on the auditory system is greater than that of steady-state noise. At present, the noise exposure measurement and evaluation indicators widely used in the world mainly include the equivalent continuous sound level and the cumulative noise exposure, both are based on the equal energy hypothesis(EEH). EEH only considered the damage of noise energy on the auditory system, but ignored the effect of temporal characteristics of noise, and underestimated the degree of hearing loss associated with complex noise. This paper first introduced the limitations of current noise exposure assessment standards at home and abroad, then introduced the definition of temporal kurtosis and the calculation method of its related energy indexes(such as cumulative noise exposure and equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure level), and further summarized the effectiveness of temporal kurtosis as an auxiliary parameter of noise energy in assessing the risk of hearing loss caused by complex noise, providing a rationale to supplement the existing noise assessment standards.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic effect of low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave (Li-ESW) in model rats with chronic prostatitis and its optimal parameters.Methods:From April to August 2019, 90 healthy male SD rats aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into control group (group C, n=15), model group (group M, n=15) and shock wave treatment group (group T, n=60), which were treated with Li-ESW after being modeled successfully. The rats in group T were supine and treated with focused Li-ESW, and the probe was placed above the anatomical position of the prostate. Treatment scheme was 3 Hz of frequency, 500 pulses, and once a week for 4 weeks. Group T was divided into group T1(0.09 mJ/mm 2), T2(0.20 mJ/mm 2), T3(0.30 mJ/mm 2) and T4(0.40 mJ/mm 2) according to energy flux density, with 15 rats in each group. Before the establishment of the model, the rats in each group were tested with von Frey fiber of 2 g, 4 g and 6 g at the scrotum respectively, and the positive reaction was recorded. There was no significant difference between the three groups ( P>0.05). After one week, the rat model with CP was established by injecting 3% carrageenan into the bilateral lobes of the prostate under anesthesia. And one week after the modeling was completed, the rats in each group underwent von Frey test again to measure pain and evaluate the modeling effects. Group T was then treated once a week for a 4-week period. During the treatment, von Frey test was performed before each treatment to evaluate the treatment effect of the previous week. After the von Frey test for one, two and four weeks of treatment, 5 rats were sacrificed in each group, and the bilateral lobes of the prostate were dissected under aseptic conditions for paraffin inclusion and HE staining. Result:The positive reaction in group M and each group T was significantly more than those in group C ( P<0.001) one week after the modeling was completed, and there was no significant difference between group M and group T. The number of positive reactions in group T2 was lower than that in group M at each time point after treatment ( P<0.05), and it is also less in group T1, T3 and T4 were than that in group M after 3 weeks, 3 and 4 weeks and 2 weeks respectively( P<0.05). In group T2, the number of positive reactions began to decrease after 1 week of treatment, and reached the lowest after 4 weeks, with significant difference in pain measurement results at different time points ( P<0.05). The results of pathological examination showed that there were more inflammatory cells in prostatic stroma and disordered arrangement of epithelial cells in group M than that in group C. The pathological scores of group M, T1, T2, T3 and T4 were 8, 7, 4, 6, 9 after 1 week treatment, 8, 5, 3, 4, 7 points after 2 weeks treatment, and 7, 3, 2, 4, 7 points after 4 weeks treatment, respectively. Conclusions:Low-intensity extracorporeal shock wave treatment had a significant effect on the improvement of symptoms in model rats with chronic prostatitis. Under the scheme of frequency 3 Hz, 500 pulses, once a week for 4 weeks, the optimal parameters is 0.20 mJ/mm 2.

Objective:To explore the clinical utility of liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry forprimary aldosteronism screening.Methods:From January to October 2019, 413 inpatients diagnosed hypertension from Fuwai Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were enrolled, including 60 Primary aldosteronism(PA)patients and 353 primary hypertension patients. The plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and renin concentration (DRC) were measured after 2 h of standing. The 24 h urine samples were collected for measurement of aldosterone using LC-MS/MS. The performance of urine aldosterone and urine aldosterone/renin ratio (UADRR) in PA screening was evaluated by ROC, and compared with PAC/DRC ratio (ADRR). Meanwhile, the efficiency of urine aldosterone in elderly patients or patients with low blood potassium or 24 h urine sodium over 200 mmol was investigated.Results:Area under the curve (AUC)of urine aldosterone was 0.725 (95 %CI 0.679-0.767), and the best cut-off was 7.13 μg/24 h, which was lower than AUC of ADRR (0.958, 95 %CI 0.934-0.975). The AUC of UADRR was 0.947 (95 %CI 0.920-0.966), the best cut-off was 1.11 (μg/24 h)/(μIU/ml), the sensitivity and specificity were 91.7% and 89.0%, respectively. There is no significant differences found with ADRR. In patients with 24 h urine sodium over 200 mmol, AUC of aldosterone was 0.834 (95 %CI 0.730-0.910) and the best cut-off was 9.31 μg/24 h. The sensitivity and specificity were 90.9% and 68.7%, respectively. For the elderly patients over 60 years old, the AUC of urinary aldosterone was 0.860 (95 %CI 0.770-0.925), and the best cut-off was 6.91 μg/24 h. The sensitivity and specificity were 84.6% and 81.3%, respectively. When admission blood potassium was less than 3.50 mmol/L, AUC of urinary aldosterone was 0.822 (95 %CI 0.684-0.917), and the best cut-off was 10.63 μg/24 h. The sensitivity and specificity were 85.7% and 66.7%, respectively. Conclusion:The detection of aldosterone in urine by LC-MS/MS can provide clinical information for PA screening, and the screening performance is better in patients with 24-hour urine sodium over 200 mmol, elderly patients or patients with low blood potassium. If combined with renin, screening efficiency was the same as that in ADRR.

Objective: To evaluate the performance of a chromogenic agar developed by our laboratory for the isolation and culture of Clostridium difficile (CDCA). Methods: The chromogenic specificity of CDCA was evaluated by inoculation of C. difficile and other standard strains, and the sensitivities of CDSA (BD), CDIF (BioMérieux) and CDCA were determined by the C. difficile standard strains respectively. A total of 120 clinical stool specimens were cultured for C. difficile by three chromogenic media respectively. The colonies were further identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry and tpi gene was also detected. The sample which could be identified as C. difficile in any of the three chromogenic medium was defined as true positive. Results: Most of standard strains were inhibited by CDCA, however some Clostridium species including C. clostridiiforme, C. bifermentans, C. tertium and Bacteroides fragilis grew lightly with chromogenic reaction. The sensitivities of CDSA, CDIF and CDCA were 2.0×105 CFU/mL, 8.0×101 CFU/mL and 4.0×10 2 CFU/mL, respectively. Among the 120 samples, 31 (25.8%) were defined as true C. difficile positive samples, while the positive rate of CDSA, CDIF and CDCA were 25 (20.8%), 28 (23.3%) and 26 (21.7%), respectively. There was no significant difference for clinical diarrhea specimens among the three chromogenic media (χ 2 =0.418, P=0.811). In comparison to the standard, the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 83.8%, 100%, 100% and 94.7% for CDCA; 90.3%, 98.9%, 96.6% and 96.7% for CDIF; and 80.6%, 100%, 100% and 93.7% for CDSA. Conclusion The CDCA developed by our laboratory could be used to preliminarily isolate C. difficile with good specificity and sensitivity.

Oxidative stress induces apoptosis of many cells and arrest of their differentiation.Both Danshensu(DSS)and hydrogen sulfide(H2S)produce significant antioxidant effect in various systems. In this study,we synthesized SDSS,a new H2S-releasing compound derived from DSS,and studied its antioxidant effect in an H2O2-induced MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cell injury model. We first characterized the H2S releasing property of SDSS in both in vivo and in vitro models. HPLC chromatogram showed that intravenous injection of SDSS in adult rats released ADT-OH,a well proved H2S sustained-release moiety, within several minutes in the rat plasma. Using an H2S selective fluorescent probe, we further confirmed that SDSS released H2S in MC3T3-E1 osteoblastic cells. Biological studies revealed that SDSS had no significant toxic effect but produced protective effects against H2O2-induced MC3T3-E1cell apoptosis. SDSS also reversed the arrest of cell differentiation caused by H2O2treatment. This was caused by the stimulatory effect of SDSS on bone sialo protein,runt-related transcription factor-2, collagen expression, alkaline phosphatase activity, and bone nodule formation. Further studies revealed that SDSS reversed the reduced superoxide dismutase activity and glutathione content,and the increased ROS production in H2O2treated cells. In addition, SDSS significantly attenuated H2O2-induced activation of p38-, ERK1/2-, and JNK-MAPKs. SDSS also stimulated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt signaling pathway.Blockade of this pathway attenuated the cytoprotective effect of SDSS.We also observed the effect of SDSS on aspirin-induced gastric injury and found that SDSS protected against aspirin-induced gastric damage. In conclusion, SDSS protects cells against H2O2-induced apoptosis by suppressing oxidative stress.
