Objective To investigate the effect of different residence time of povidone iodine on the disinfection effect of conjunctival sac in senile cataract surgery.Methods A total of 396 senile patients who underwent cataract surgery in our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the long-residence group and the short-residence group,with 198 cases in each group.The patients of the long-residence group and the short-residence group were disinfected with a disposable filling 5%povidone iodine on conjunctival sac for 3 minutes and 30 seconds before surgery,respectively.The bacterial detection and bacterial distribution on conjunctival sac,and corneal epithelial cell damage were compared between the two groups.The subjective comfort conditions such as ocular itching,foreign body sensation,erythema,and photophobia after disinfection were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the bacterial detection rate before and after disinfection between the two groups(P>0.05).The most frequently detected bacteria in the short-residence group was Staphylococcus epidermidis,accounting for 28.79%and 33.33%before and after disinfection,respectively.The incidences of ocular itching,foreign body sensation,erythema,and photophobia after disinfection in the short-residence group were significantly lower than those in the long-residence group(P<0.05),while the rate of corneal epithelial cell damage in the long-residence group was significantly higher than that in the short-residence group(P<0.05).Conclusion The use of disposable filling 5%povidone iodine for disinfection on conjunctival sac for 30 seconds before surgery can achieve a comparable disinfection effect to disinfection for 3 minutes,which has less effect on corneal epithelial cells,and higher ocular comfort.

Objective To analyze differences of purified water,softened water,and concentrated softened water on the decontamination effects for surgical instruments,so as to provide a reliable reference for the selection of cleaning water for surgical instruments.Methods The physical and chemical indexes and components of concentrated softened water,softened water,and purified water were detected,and their cleaning effects for instrument were compared.The decontamination cleaning experiment was conducted in three hospitals with different types of cleaning water using mini cleaning machines,and the differences in the decontamination time were analyzed.The cleaning and decontamination experiments on contaminated instruments was performed using a spray cleaning and disinfection device,and the cleaning effects of instruments with different types of cleaning water were analyzed.Results Calcium content and hardness of the three types of cleaning water were all at a low level,which can avoid scale adhesion for cleaning surgical instruments.There were statistically significant differences in the pH value,conductivity,and contents of calcium,sodium and chloride among the three cleaning waters(P<0.05).The purified water was weakly acidic,and its conductivity,hardness,and contents of calcium,sodium and chloride were all at low levels.The softened water and concentrated softened water were weakly alkaline,with high levels of conductivity and sodium content and low level of chloride.There were statistically significant differences in the decontamination time of the purified water,softened water and concentrated softened water among hospitals(P<0.05).Under the same contamination condition of surgical instruments,there was a statistically significant difference in the qualified rate of instruments cleaning in the upper and lower cleaning baskets with different cleaning waters(P<0.05).Conclusion Concentrated softened water and softened water have high sodium content,and their decontamination and cleaning abilities are significantly stronger than those of the purified water.Purified water has poorer effects in instruments cleaning for its deionized property.Using concentrated softened water or softened water in the surgical instrument cleaning process can achieve effects of reducing consumption and increasing efficiency,which is conducive to improving cleaning efficiency and quality.

Objective To investigate the role and potential mechanism of protein arginine methyltransferase 1(PRMT1)in regulating the proliferation,apoptosis and migration of human oral squamous cell carcinoma SCC-25 cells.Methods Normal oral mucosal cells S-G and oral squamous cell carcinoma cells SCC-25,OECM-1,and HSC-3 were collected and cultured,and the transcription level of PRMT1 was detected.SCC-25 cells were divided into the untransfected group(SCC-25 group),empty vector control group(SCC-25+NC group),and transfection group(SCC-25+si-PRMT1 group).Protein expression levels were detected by Western blot;cell proliferation and migration abilities were assessed by MTT assay and cell scratch wound healing assay,respectively;and the apoptosis rates were determined by flow cytometry.Exogenous TGF-β stimulation experiment was conducted on the basis of constructed SCC-25+si-PRMT1 cells to verify the role of TGF-β/Smad pathway in the PRMT1 silencing effect.Results Compared with normal oral mucosal cells S-G,PRMT1 was highly expressed in oral squamous cell carcinoma cells SCC-25,OECM-1,and HSC-3(P<0.05),with the highest expression observed in SCC-25 cells(P<0.05).After silencing the PRMT1 gene,the expressions of pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and C-Caspase-3 in SCC-25 cells significantly increased,the apoptosis rate significantly increased,the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 significantly decreased,and the cell proliferation and migration abilities were inhibited.Simultaneous silencing of the PRMT1 gene can significantly downregulated the expression levels of TGF-β and its downstream effector p-Smad.Compared with the SCC-25+si-PRMT1 group,the cell proliferation and migration abilities in the SCC-25+si-PRMT1+TGF-β group were enhanced,and the apoptosis rate decreased,which suggesting that TGF-β could partially reverse the tumor suppressor effect caused by PRMT1 silencing.Conclusion PRMT1 regulates the proliferation,apoptosis and migration of SCC-25 cells through TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway.

Objective To elucidate the mechanisms of trauma-induced coagulopathy(TIC),clarify the specific pathogenic factors and pathophysiological processes,and discover the effective diagnostic indicators and therapeutic targets.Methods Transcriptomic data of traumatic hemorrhagic shock patients were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)to identify differentially expressed genes(DEGs).Coagulation-related genes(CRGs)from the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)were intersected with DEGs.Machine learning algorithms,including least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)and random forest(RF),were applied to identify key genes.The CIBERSORT algorithm was used to analyze the correlation between key genes and immune cell infiltration.Through consensus clustering,subtype analysis was conducted on trauma patients to compare the infiltration of immune cells.A rat model of traumatic hemorrhagic shock was established to validate coagulation function and the expression of key genes.Results The dataset included samples from 17 healthy controls and 478 patients with traumatic hemorrhagic shock.A total of 6 315 DEGs were identified under the screening criterion of corrected P<0.05.Gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)showed that the up-regulated DEGs were significantly enriched in the glucose metabolism pathway,while the down-regulated DEGs were enriched in the immune reaction-related pathways.Through cross-analysis of DEGs and CRGs,a total of 65 differentially expressed coagulation-related genes(DE-CRGs)were screened out.GO functional enrichment showed that these genes were mainly located in secreting granular membranes and platelet α-granules,and were involved in physiological processes such as blood coagulation,regulation of body fluid levels,and wound healing.KEGG pathway analysis revealed that these genes were significantly enriched in pathways such as platelet activation,complement and coagulation cascade reactions,Rap1 signaling pathway,and human cytomegalovirus infection.Six key DE-CRGs were identified through machine learning.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis indicated that these genes had good diagnostic efficacy.CIBERSORT analysis revealed a significant correlation between key genes and immune cell infiltration.Patients were classified into two subtypes based on the six key genes:subtype A was rich in CD8+T cells and activated NK cells,presented an immune-active state;subtype B was mainly composed of monocytes and resting NK cells,with insufficient activation of immune pathways.Animal experiments on rats showed that hemorrhagic shock can lead to coagulation dysfunction.The results of qRT-PCR further confirmed that the expression trend of key genes was consistent with the results of bioinformatics analysis.Conclusion In this study,through transcriptomics and machine learning methods,six key genes closely related to TIC were systematically screened out,namely GNA13,PIK3R3,ITGAM,MAPK14,PPP1CC and LYN,and their close connections with coagulation function and immune infiltration were revealed.Animal experiments have further verified the value of these genes as potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of magnetic tracer technique for locating pulmonary nodules.Methods A tracer magnet and a matching puncture instrument were designed by ourselves for locating pulmonary nodules.After preliminarily verifying the feasibility of the operation in the isolated lung,four beagle dogs were used as animal models to perform puncture localization of the assumed lesions in the upper lobe of the right lung under the guidance of X-ray by using self-designed tracer magnets and puncture instruments,and the positioning effect was observed and evaluated after thorax opening.The operation time required for the tracer magnet implantation,whether there is bleeding at the puncture site,whether the tracer magnet is displaced,and the positioning time of pulmonary nodules after thorax opening were recorded.Results Two tracer magnets were successfully inserted into the upper lobe of the right lung under X-ray guidance in four beagle dogs,and the magnets were successfully attracted and fixed.The median insertion time of the tracer magnet was 5 minutes(4 to 7 minutes),and the insertion process was smooth without bleeding at the puncture site.After thorax opening,oval forceps were used to conveniently locate the location of the tracer magnet,achieving accurate positioning of pulmonary nodules with a median positioning time of 13 seconds(10 to 17 seconds),and the tracer magnet did not shift during the whole process.Conclusion The magnetic tracer technique is simple to operate and pricise for localization of pulmonary nodules.With further optimization of the operation process,this technique is expected to be applied in clinic.

Objective To observe the origin and course of the obturator artery(OA),so as to provide anatomical reference for reducing hemorrhage during pelvic surgery and pubic fracture fixation.Methods A total of 65 human hemi-pelvises specimens with intact structure were dissected to observe the origin,course and other variations of OA.Measure the length of the inner section of OA basin and the outer diameter at the origin,etc.Results OA originated from the internal iliac artery in 57 cases(87.7%),including 3 cases(4.6%)of the superior gluteal artery,5 cases(7.7%)of the inferior gluteal artery,3 cases(4.6%)of the external iliac artery and 5 cases(7.7%)of the inferior epigastric artery.OA participated in the formation of the arterial trunk in 3 cases(4.6%).The length of the pelvic segment of the OA in male and female was(50.87±15.41)mm and(51.71±14.19)mm,respectively,with no statistically significant difference between them(P>0.05).The outer diameters at the origin of the OA in male and female were(2.79±1.05)mm and(2.35±0.86)mm,and there was no statistically significant difference between them(P>0.05).Conclusion OA mainly originated from the anterior trunk of the internal iliac artery,with a few OA originated from the branches of the posterior trunk or the inferior epigastric artery,or participated in the formation of the arterial trunk.In pelvic surgery involving OA area,attention should be paid to the length of its pelvic segment and the outer diameter at the origin of OA,so as to better locate and protect blood vessels during surgery.

Objective To explore the mechanism of matrine in the treatment of uveal melanoma by network pharmacology,and the related results were verified by molecular docking and cell experiments.Methods The potential targets of matrine were obtained from Swiss Target Prediction,SuperPred and TCMSP databases.The targets related to uveal melanoma were obtained from GeneCards,OMIM,CTD and DrugBank databases.Protein-protein interaction(PPI)network was established to screen core targets.Gene ontology(GO)enrichment analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)signal pathway analysis were carried out for potential targets.The interaction between matrine and core targets was evaluated by molecular docking technique.The effects of different concentrations of matrine(0.25 g/L,0.50 g/L,1.00 g/L,2.00 g/L)on the proliferation of uveal melanoma cells were evaluated based on CCK-8 method.Western blot was used to verify the regulatory effects of different concentrations of matrine(0.25 g/L,0.50 g/L,1.00 g/L,2.00 g/L)on PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.Results A total of 208 potential targets of matrine were identified,and 5 453 targets related to uveal melanoma were obtained.The topological analysis of PPI network revealed 8 core targets,namely interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor(TNF),myelocytomatosis proteins(MYC),signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(STAT3),caspase-3(CASP3),heat shock protein 90AB1(HSP90AB1),mammalian target of rapamycin(mTOR),and matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP9).GO enrichment analysis showed that biological processes(BP)mainly included inflammatory response,protein phosphorylation and response to exogenous stimuli;cell components(CC)mainly included plasma membrane,cell surface and cytoplasm;molecular function(MF)mainly included the same protein binding,ATP binding and kinase activity.The enrichment analysis of KEGG pathway showed that the effect of matrine was mediated by viral carcinogenesis,cancer pathway,TNF signaling pathway and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.Molecular docking showed that matrine had good binding ability with the selected core targets.The results of cell experiments showed that matrine at concentrations of 0.50 g/L,1.00 g/L and 2.00 g/L could inhibit the proliferation of MuM2B cells,and the cell survival rate gradually decreased with the increase of concentration.Matrine at concentrations of 0.50 g/L,1.00 g/L and 2.00 g/L could down-regulate the protein expression levels of p-PI3K and p-Akt,and the protein expression levels of p-PI3K and p-Akt gradually decreased with the increase of concentration.Conclusion Matrine acts on tar-gets such as IL-6,TNF,MYC,STAT3,CASP3,HSP90AB1,mTOR,MMP9,and exerts therapeutic effects on uveal melanoma by viral carcinogenesis,cancer pathway,TNF signaling pathway and PI3K-Akt signaling pathway,etc.

Objective To investigate the outcome of low molecular weight heparin combined with continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT)in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis.Methods The clinical data of 84 patients with severe acute pancreatitis admitted to our hospital from June 2022 to December 2023 were collected,and the patients were divided into the CRRT group and the combination group according to their treatment methods,with 42 cases in each group.The patients in the CRRT group were treated with CRRT,while those in the combination group were treated with CRRT and low molecular weight heparin.The serum levels of pancreatitis markers,inflammatory factors,serum intercellular adhesion molecules-1(ICAM-1)and high mobility group proteins B1(HMGB1)and acute physiology and chronic health status evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)scores were compared between the two groups,the symptom improvement time of patients were recorded,and the curative effect of patients were evaluated.Results The serum levels of amylase(S-AMY),pancreatic lipase(LPS),urinary amylase(U-AMY),C-reactive protein(CRP),ICAM-1 and HMGB1,and APACHE Ⅱ scores after treatment in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment,and the combination group was lower than the CRRT group(P<0.05).After treatment,the disappearance time of abdominal pain and abdominal bloating,the recovery time of defecation,and the disappearance time of fever in the combination group were all significantly shorter than those in the CRRT group(P<0.05).The combination group had a significantly higher overall effective rate of treatment than the CRRT group(P<0.05).Conclusion Low molecular weight heparin combined with CRRT is effective for on the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis,which can significantly reduce the levels of pancreatitis markers,inflammatory factors,serum ICAM-1 and HMGB1,effectively improve clinical symptoms,and shorten the time for symptom improvement.

Objective To explore the effects of microscopic total resection on cerebral blood flow perfusion and cognitive function in patients with glioma.Methods The clinical data of 80 glioma patients admitted to our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.The grouping were conducted according to different surgical methods,among which 38 patients treated with traditional craniotomy were included in the traditional group,and 42 patients treated with microscopic total resection were included in the microscopic group.The surgery-related indicators,cerebral blood perfusion indexes,cognitive function and recurrence of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The surgical time,time to get out of bed,and hospital stay of patients in the microscopic group were shorter than those in the traditional group,the intraoperative blood loss was lower than that in the traditional group,and the incision length was smaller than that in the traditional group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Six months after surgery,the standard uptake value of 13N-NH3 in the cerebral cortex of patients in the microscopic group was higher than that in the traditional group(P<0.05).Six months after surgery,the scores of directional ability,immediate memory,attention and calculation ability,delayed memory,and language function,and total mini-mental state examination score of patients in the microscopic group were higher than those in the traditional group(P<0.05).One year after surgery,the recurrence rate of patients in the microscopic group was 4.76%,which was lower than that in the traditional group of 23.68%,with statistically signifi-cant difference(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with traditional craniotomy,microscopic total resection is more advantageous for patients with glioma,which can optimize surgical indicators,ameliorate postoperative cerebral blood flow perfusion,and restore cognitive function,with a lower postoperative recurrence rate.

Objective To clarify the differences in the effects of bupivacaine liposome and ropivacaine on quadratus lumborum block in patients undergoing laparoscopic total hysterectomy.Methods A total of 70 patients who underwent laparoscopic total hysterectomy at Suqian First People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from January 2023 to October 2024 were selected as the research subjects.The patients were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group,with 35 cases in each group.Before general anesthesia,patients of the control group were given ropivacaine quadratus lumborum block,while patients of the observation group were given bupivacaine liposome quadratus lumborum block.The general conditions before and after operation,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores at different time points after operation,rescue analgesia,mini-mental state examination(MMSE)scores at different time points after operation,postoperative rehabilitation and analgesic adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the general conditions of patients in the two groups before and after the operation(P>0.05).At 24 hours,48 hours,and 72 hours after surgery,the abdominal resting VAS scores of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The time of the first self-controlled use of the intravenous analgesic pump after surgery in the observation group was significantly later than that in the control group(P<0.05).The number of analgesic pump compressions and the rate of oxycodone rescue analgesia in the observation group were significantly fewer/lower than those in the control group within 48 hours after surgery(P<0.05).At 24 hours,48 hours,and 72 hours after surgery,the MMSE scores of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The time for patients to get out of bed and move around after surgery and the recovery time of anal exhaust in the observation group were significantly earlier than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of postoperative analgesic adverse reactions between the two groups of patients(P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with the use of ropivacaine for quadratus lumborum block in patients undergoing laparoscopic total hysterectomy,bupivacaine liposome can provide a longer-lasting analgesic effect,reduce patients'dependence on intravenous analgesia,be conducive to protecting patients'cognitive function,accelerate the recovery of patients without increasing the incidence of adverse reactions.
