Objective:To explore the molecular mechanism by which interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) affects hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) by regulating the polarization of Kupffer cells.Methods:Twelve male healthy C57BL/6 wild-type mice weighing 20-25 g and aged 6-8 weeks were divided into a sham operation group ( n=6) and a HIRI group ( n=6); Twelve male healthy C57BL/6 IRF1 gene knockout (IRF1 -/-) mice weighing 20-25 g and aged 6-8 weeks were divided into a sham operation IRF1 -/- group ( n=6) and a HIRI IRF1 -/- group ( n=6). The levels of serum alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) in mice were measured, and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining of liver tissues was performed for Suzuki scoring to evaluate liver injury. Fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to evaluate the mRNA levels of IRF1 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) in liver tissues. Flow cytometry and qRT-PCR were used to detect the proportion and functional changes of M1/M2-type Kupffer cells in liver tissues. IRF1 was overexpressed or knocked down in the mononuclear macrophage cell line ANA1, and a co-culture and hypoxia-reoxygenation system with the hepatocyte cell line AML12 was established. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of AML12 cells. Results:At 12 hours after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion in wild-type mice, the liver tissue injury was the most severe. Compared with the sham operation group, the levels of serum ALT [(8 073±83) U/L vs. (81±19) U/L, q=13.59] and AST [(11 170±2 890) U/L vs. (412±210) U/L, q=13.77] in the HIRI group were significantly higher, and the differences were statistically significant (both P<0.001). The Suzuki score reached 5-6 points. At 12 hours after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion in IRF1 gene knockout mice, the liver tissue injury was not obvious. There were no significant differences in the levels of serum ALT [668 (514, 2 344) U/L vs. 254 (147, 285) U/L, q=2.52, P=0.348] and AST [1 936 (1 262, 2 003) U/L vs. 628 (423, 759) U/L, q=1.22, P=0.824] between the HIRI IRF1 -/- group and the sham operation IRF1 -/- group. Compared with the HIRI group, the ratio of M1/M2-type Kupffer cells in the liver of the HIRI IRF1 -/- group decreased [(0.958±0.090) vs. (2.788±0.258), q=2.06, P<0.0001], and the mRNA expression of TNFα decreased [(4.363±0.393) vs. (12.900±5.504), q=5.59, P=0.018], and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant. In the co-culture and hypoxia-reoxygenation experiment using ANA1 cells overexpressing IRF1 and AML12 cells, the proportion of AML12 hepatocytes in late apoptosis was higher than that in the control group [(14.05±4.25) vs. (3.15±1.16), t=2.85, P=0.047], and the difference was statistically significant. In contrast, when the expression of IRF1 was knocked down, the proportion of apoptotic AML12 cells decreased [(9.26±3.04) vs. (13.36±4.64), t=2.15, P=0.098], but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion:The IRF1 protein can regulate the polarization of Kupffer cells into M1-type macrophages, promote the inflammatory injury of the liver tissue after ischemia-reperfusion, and increase the apoptosis of hepatocytes.

Objective:To explore predictive value of pericoronary fat attenuation index(FAI)of the assessment of computed tomography(CT)for coronary restenosis post the surgery of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in elderly patients with coronary heart disease(CHD).Methods:A total of 100 elderly patients with CHD who admitted to Harbin 242 Hospital and underwent PCI from August 2021 to August 2024 were prospectively selected,and they were divided into stenosis group(46 cases)and non-stenosis group(54 cases)based on whether occurred coronary artery restenosis after the surgery.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the influence factors of occurring restenosis in elderly patients with CHD after PCI surgery,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of FAI for restenosis post PCI surgery in patients with CHD.Results:The differences in lipoprotein a,fibrinogen(FIB),total bilirubin(TBIL),total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),Coronary artery Lesion Complexity Scoring System(SYNTAX)score and FAI were significant between the stenosis group and the non-stenosis group,and the differences were all statistically significant(t=11.819,27.088,38.363,2.632,4.106,7.773,3.231,P<0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in gender,age,body mass index(BMI),blood pressure,basically medical history,and the diameter of implanted stents between the two groups(P>0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that lipoprotein a FIB TBIL,TC,TG,SYNTAX score,and FAI index were all influence factors for restenosis post PCI surgery in patients with CHD[OR=4.578(95%CI:2.645～7.932),3.850(95%CI:2.048～7.237),0.145(95%CI:0.052～0.405),6.133(95%CI:1.382～27.219),0.019(95%CI:0.002～0.158),1.264(95%CI:1.150～1.389),1.062(95%CI:1.024～1.102),P<0.05].The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under curve(AUC)value of the ROC curve of the FAI index was 0.760(95%CI:0.666～0.854)in predicting restenosis post PCI surgery,and the sensitivity,specificity,the maximum Youden index and the best cut-off value of that were respectively 89.1%,59.3%,0.484,-79.79,P<0.001.Conclusion:FAI has significant value in predicting restenosis post PCI surgery in elderly patients with CHD,and it can be used as basis of assessing clinical risk.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of closed reduction and internal fixation combined with percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) and non-operative treatment for intertrochanteric fracture combined with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) in the elderly.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 59 patients with intertrochanteric fracture combined with OVCF admitted to Tianjin Hospital from June 2020 to June 2023, including 16 males and 43 females, aged 66-91 years [(80.2±6.8)years]. The injured vertebral segments included T 10 in 3 patients, T 11 in 9, T 12 in 18, L 1 in 17, L 2 in 8, and L 3 in 4. According to the Genant semi-quantitative classification of vertebral fracture, 42 patients were scaled into grade 1 and 17 into grade 2. Based on the AO classification of intertrochanteric fracture, 33 patients were classified as type A1, 21 type A2, and 5 type A3. All the patients underwent closed reduction and internal fixation for intertrochanteric fractures, among whom 26 patients received PKP after the internal fixation of OVCF (PKP group) and 33 patients received non-surgical treatment after the internal fixation of OVCF (non-surgical group). The healing of the hip incision at 2 weeks after internal fixation and the healing of intertrochanteric fractures at 6 months after surgery were observed in both groups. The visual analogue scale (VAS) for low back pain was compared between the two groups before PKP, immediately after PKP, at 3 months after PKP, and at the last follow-up. The Oswestry disability index (ODI), anterior vertebral height ratio, and Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae were compared between the two groups before PKP, at 3 months after PKP, and at the last follow-up. The Harris hip function score was compared between the two groups at 3 months after internal fixation and at the last follow-up. Cement leakage was observed. The incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower extremities after internal fixation were compared between the two groups. Results:All the patients were followed up for 10-46 months [(25.5±9.9)months]. The hip incisions of both groups all healed by first intention at 2 weeks after internal fixation, and the intertrochanteric fracture in both groups had bony union at 6 months after surgery. There were no significant differences between the two groups in VAS or ODI before PKP ( P>0.05). Immediately after PKP, at 3 months after PKP, and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores for low back pain were (2.6±0.6)points, (2.4±0.9)points, and (1.5±0.5)points in the PKP group, which were lower than those in the non-surgical group [(8.2±0.8)points, (3.7±1.2)points, and (3.3±0.6)points] ( P<0.01). At 3 months after PKP and at the last follow-up, the ODI values were (21.4±6.9)% and (16.2±6.3)% in the PKP group, which were lower than (38.6±11.6)% and (32.7±12.0)% in the non-surgical group ( P<0.01). The VAS for low back pain and ODI in both groups were gradually improved at each time point after PKP compared with those before PKP ( P<0.05 or 0.01). There were no significant differences in the anterior vertebral height ratio or Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae in the two groups before PKP ( P>0.05). At 3 months after PKP and at the last follow-up, the anterior vertebral height ratio was (79.8±9.6)% and (79.3±9.4)% in the PKP group, which were higher than (73.4±9.3)% and (62.0±10.4)% in the non-surgical group ( P<0.05 or 0.01); the values of the Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae were (12.6±3.6)° and (12.0±3.3)°in the PKP group, which were lower than (15.5±2.6)° and (20.4±4.9)° in the non-surgical group ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in the anterior vertebral height ratio and Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae in the PKP group before PKP and at each time point after PKP ( P>0.05) while in the non-surgical group, the anterior vertebral height ratio at each time point after PKP was lower than that before PKP and the Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae was increased compared with that before PKP ( P<0.01). At 3 months after internal fixation and at the last follow-up, the Harris hip function scores in the PKP group were (76.4±3.4)points and (87.7±4.5)points, which were higher than (57.0±6.8)points and (76.3±8.9)points in the non-surgical group ( P<0.01). The Harris hip function scores in both groups were improved at the last follow-up, compared with those at 3 months after internal fixation. Five patients had cement leakage in the PKP group, all of which were lateral leakage.There was no occurrence of radiating pain in the lower extremities. The incidence of DVT at 1 month after internal fixation was 19.2% (5/26) in the PKP group, which was lower than 57.6% (19/33) in the non-surgical group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with non-operative treatment after the closed reduction and internal fixation, PKP after internal fixation can significantly relieve low back pain in the early stage, improve the functional restoration of the vertebral column, maintain vertebral height, prevent kyphosis, promote the recovery of the hip joint function, and reduce the occurrence of DVT in the lower extremities in the treatment of intertrochanteric fracture combined with OVCF.

Objective To explore the effect of saururus chinensis tannin on proliferation and mi-gration of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)cells by regulating Hippo/YAP signaling pathway.Methods Human NSCLC cell line A549 was treated with different concentrations of saururus chinen-sis tannin.Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay to screen appropriate drug concentrations.NSCLC cells were randomly divided into control group,low-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group,medium-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group,high-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group and high-concentration saururus chinensis tannin+YAP activator(XMU-MP-1)group.Cell viability,colony formation capacity,migration ability and invasion ability were evaluated using the CCK-8 assay,plate colony formation assay,wound healing assay and transwell assay,respective-ly.Expression levels of proteins associated with migration and invasion[E-cadherin,N-cadherin and snail]and proteins related to the Hippo/YAP signaling pathway[Yes-associated protein(YAP),phosphorylated Yes-associated protein(p-YAP),connective tissue growth factor(CTGF)and cys-teine-rich angiogenic inducer 61(CYR61)]were detected by western blot analysis.Results Com-pared with the control group,the cell viability,the number of colony cells,migration and invasion abilities,as well as the expression levels of N-cadherin,snail,YAP,CTGF and CYR61 proteins in the low-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group,medium-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group and high-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group were significantly decreased or reduced,and the expression levels of E-cadherin and p-YAP proteins were significantly increased(P＜0.05),with the most pronounced effects observed in the high-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group.Compared with the high-concentration saururus chinensis tannin group,the cell viabil-ity,the number of colony cells,migration and invasion abilities,as well as the expression levels of N-cadherin,snail,YAP,CTGF and CYR61 in the high-concentration saururus chinensis tannin+YAP activator group were significantly increased or enhanced,while the expression levels of E-cad-herin and p-YAP were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusion Saururus chinensis tannin may reduce the survival rate of NSCLC cells and inhibit their proliferation,migration and invasion a-bilities by regulating the Hippo/YAP signaling pathway.

Objective: To explore the current status and influencing factors of eating behaviors in adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical foundation for health promotion education among adolescents. Methods: Based on the database from Survey of Chinese Family Health Index (2021), by a random number table method, 1 065 teenagers were selected from the provincial capitals of 22 provinces and 5 autonomous regions in China, as well as 4 municipalities directly under the central government. A general characteristic questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Short Form of the Family Health Scale (FHS-SF), 10-item Short Version of the Big Five Personality(BFP-10), Content-based Media Exposure Scale (CM-E) and Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short Form(EBS-SF) were used to collect information. Multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis was employed to identify and analyze related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. Receiver operating characteristic was used to validate the predictive ability of the EBS-SF score for overweight and obesity among adolescents. Results: The average scores of BFI-10,C-ME, FHS-SF, PHQ-9 and EBS-SF were (33.08±4.64)(19.20±4.55)(38.48±6.65)(6.09±5.63)(16.75±4.36), respectively. Multivariate linear regression showed that family type (other types), agreeableness, conscientiousness, family health and depression were the main related factors of EBS-SF scores among adolescents( B =2.61,-0.42,0.20,-0.11,0.23, P <0.05).The analysis of receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the EBS-SF scores had a good ability in predicting obesity among male adolescents ( AUC= 0.73, P <0.01). Conclusions Family type, big five personality, family health,depression are the related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. EBS-SF scores are predictive of obesity in adolescents, which would provide a new perspective for promoting healthy eating habits among adolescents.

To explore the effects of different blood loss on liver and kidney function,blood lactic acid levels,and oxidative stress indexes after hemorrhagic shock resuscitation in dogs,10 healthy Chinese rural dogs were randomly divided into 1.5 h blood loss resuscitation group(HSRA group)and 3.5 h blood loss resuscitation group(HSRB group).The changes in liver and kidney function,blood lactic acid,and oxidative stress-related indexes were detected at 2,6,24,48 and 72 h after re-suscitation.The results showed that the liver function indexes of TBIL,ALT,and AST in the HSRB group were higher than those in the HSRA group at each time point after resuscitation.There was no significant change in renal function indexes between the two groups.The level of Lac in the HSRB group was significantly higher than that in the HSRA group at 2 and 6 h after resuscitation.CAT activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 2 h after resuscitation.GSH-px activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 2,6 and 24 h after resuscitation.SOD activity in the HSRB group was significantly lower than that in the HSRA group at 24 h after resuscitation.MDA content in the HSRB group was sig-nificantly higher than that in the HSRA group at 2,6,24 and 48 h after resuscitation.The results showed that HS could cause liver injury and oxidative stress after resuscitation,and the degree of liver injury and oxidative stress injury in dogs increased with the prolongation of blood loss.

Objective:To explore the molecular mechanism by which interferon regulatory factor 1 (IRF1) affects hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury (HIRI) by regulating the polarization of Kupffer cells.Methods:Twelve male healthy C57BL/6 wild-type mice weighing 20-25 g and aged 6-8 weeks were divided into a sham operation group ( n=6) and a HIRI group ( n=6); Twelve male healthy C57BL/6 IRF1 gene knockout (IRF1 -/-) mice weighing 20-25 g and aged 6-8 weeks were divided into a sham operation IRF1 -/- group ( n=6) and a HIRI IRF1 -/- group ( n=6). The levels of serum alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) in mice were measured, and hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining of liver tissues was performed for Suzuki scoring to evaluate liver injury. Fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to evaluate the mRNA levels of IRF1 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) in liver tissues. Flow cytometry and qRT-PCR were used to detect the proportion and functional changes of M1/M2-type Kupffer cells in liver tissues. IRF1 was overexpressed or knocked down in the mononuclear macrophage cell line ANA1, and a co-culture and hypoxia-reoxygenation system with the hepatocyte cell line AML12 was established. Flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis of AML12 cells. Results:At 12 hours after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion in wild-type mice, the liver tissue injury was the most severe. Compared with the sham operation group, the levels of serum ALT [(8 073±83) U/L vs. (81±19) U/L, q=13.59] and AST [(11 170±2 890) U/L vs. (412±210) U/L, q=13.77] in the HIRI group were significantly higher, and the differences were statistically significant (both P<0.001). The Suzuki score reached 5-6 points. At 12 hours after hepatic ischemia-reperfusion in IRF1 gene knockout mice, the liver tissue injury was not obvious. There were no significant differences in the levels of serum ALT [668 (514, 2 344) U/L vs. 254 (147, 285) U/L, q=2.52, P=0.348] and AST [1 936 (1 262, 2 003) U/L vs. 628 (423, 759) U/L, q=1.22, P=0.824] between the HIRI IRF1 -/- group and the sham operation IRF1 -/- group. Compared with the HIRI group, the ratio of M1/M2-type Kupffer cells in the liver of the HIRI IRF1 -/- group decreased [(0.958±0.090) vs. (2.788±0.258), q=2.06, P<0.0001], and the mRNA expression of TNFα decreased [(4.363±0.393) vs. (12.900±5.504), q=5.59, P=0.018], and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant. In the co-culture and hypoxia-reoxygenation experiment using ANA1 cells overexpressing IRF1 and AML12 cells, the proportion of AML12 hepatocytes in late apoptosis was higher than that in the control group [(14.05±4.25) vs. (3.15±1.16), t=2.85, P=0.047], and the difference was statistically significant. In contrast, when the expression of IRF1 was knocked down, the proportion of apoptotic AML12 cells decreased [(9.26±3.04) vs. (13.36±4.64), t=2.15, P=0.098], but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusion:The IRF1 protein can regulate the polarization of Kupffer cells into M1-type macrophages, promote the inflammatory injury of the liver tissue after ischemia-reperfusion, and increase the apoptosis of hepatocytes.
