Aim To investigate the regulatory mecha-nism of arrhythmia of sodium channel ubiquitination af-ter MI and to study the electrophysiological remodeling mechanism of lncRNA-CCRR after MI for the preven-tion and treatment of arrhythmia after MI.Methods LncRNA-CCRR transgenic mice and C57BL/6 mice injected with lncRNA-CCRR overexpressed adeno-asso-ciated virus were used.Four weeks after infection,the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery was ligated for 12 h to establish a mouse acute myocar-dial infarction model,and the incidence of arrhythmia was detected by programmed electrical stimulation.Ln-cRNA-CCRR overexpression/knockdown adeno-associ-ated virus and negative control were transfected into neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes(NMCMs),and the model was prepared by hypoxia for 12 h.LncRNA-CCRR expression was detected by FISH,Nav1.5 and UBA6 protein and Nav.1.5 mRNA expression were de-tected by Western blot and real-time quantitative poly-merase chain reaction(qRT-PCR),Nav1.5 and UBA6 expressions were detected by immunofluores-cence,and the relationship between lncRNA-CCRR and UBA6 was detected by RIP.INa current density af-ter CCRR overexpression and knockdown was detected by Whole-cell clamp patch.Results In MI mice,the expression of lncRNA-CCRR decreased,the incidence of arrhythmia increased,the expression of CCRR and Nav1.5 mRNA was down-regulated,the protein ex-pression of Nav1.5 was down-regulated,and the pro-tein expression of UBA6 was up-regulated compared with sham group.Overexpression of CCRR could re-verse the above changes.AAV-CCRR could reverse the down-regulated CCRR and Nav1.5 mRNA levels af-ter hypoxia,and improve the expression of Nav1.5 and UBA6 protein.The direct relationship between ln-cRNA-CCRR and UBA6 was identified by RIP analy-sis.The INa density increased after transfection with AAV-CCRR.The INa density decreased after transfec-tion with AAV-si-CCRR.Conclusions The expres-sion of lncRNA-CCRR decreases after MI,and ln-cRNA-CCRR can improve arrhythmia induced by MI by inhibiting UBA6 to increase the protein expression level of Nav1.5 and the density of INa.

Aim To explore the potential genes and mechanism of alisol B in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC).Methods The proliferation and migration of NSCLC cells were detected by CCK-8 and Transwell.Genes of NSCLC and alisol B were col-lected through TCGA and compound gene prediction database,and their intersection genes were obtained.The network of protein-protein interaction(PPI)was constructed by using String database,and the top 20 key nodes were screened out,and the prognosis-related proteins related to the prognosis of NSCLC were screened out by using R language,and the intersection of them was obtained.The potential mechanism of ali-sol B on NSCLC was explored by KEGG and GO en-richment analysis and the relationship between related genes and immune cells,which was verified by cell-lev-el experiments.Results Alisol B inhibited the cell activity and migration ability of NSCLC cells.Five im-portant genes were identified by network pharmacologi-cal analysis:CCNE1,CDK1,COL1A1,COL1A2 and COL3A1.The results of cell experiment showed that al-isol B down-regulated the expression of Cyclin E1,CDK1 and COL1A2 in NSCLC cells.In addition,alisol B could inhibit the expression of COL1A2 and M2 macrophage marker CD206 in macrophages.Conclu-sions Alisol B may inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells by down-regulating CDK1 and Cyclin E1,and may affect the function of macrophages by inhibiting COL1A2,thus regulating the tumor immune microenvi-ronment and inhibiting NSCLC.

Objective To explore the associations of parental smoking and alcohol consumption during the periconceptional period and their interactions with risk of congenital heart disease(CHD)in offspring.Methods The parents of children with simple CHD aged 0 to 1 year(n=683)were recruited as the case group,while the parents of healthy children aged 0 to 1 year(n=740)served as the control group.A case-control study was conducted,and a questionnaire was used to collect information on perinatal exposures.After controlling for relevant confounding factors using multivariate logistic regression analysis and propensity score matching,the associations of parental smoking and alcohol consumption during the periconceptional period and their interactions with CHD were examined,as well as the cumulative effects of smoking and drinking on CHD risk.Results Maternal active smoking(OR=2.91,95%CI:1.60-5.30),passive smoking(OR=1.94,95%CI:1.56-2.42),and alcohol consumption(OR=2.59,95%CI:1.89-3.54),as well as paternal smoking(OR=1.52;95%CI:1.22-1.90)and drinking(OR=1.48,95%CI:1.19-1.84),were associated with an increased risk of CHD in offspring.There was no interaction between parental smoking and drinking behaviors during the periconceptional period concerning the risk of CHD in offspring(P>0.05).The more parents'smoking and drinking behaviors during the perinatal pregnancy,the higher the risk of CHD in their offspring(OR=1.50,95%CI:1.36-1.65).Conclusions Parental smoking and alcohol consumption during the periconceptional period are associated with the occurrence of CHD in offspring,and there is a cumulative effect on CHD risk,suggesting that reducing tobacco and alcohol exposure during the periconceptional period may lower the incidence of CHD.

Objective To observe the value of contrast-enhanced mammography(CEM)for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications.Methods Data of 116 female patients with 132 breast imaging reporting and data system(BI-RADS)category 4 to 5 lesions were retrospectively analyzed.The lesions were divided into malignant group(n=86)and benign group(n=46)according to the pathologic results.The morphological manifestations of calcification and their distributions were classified into high or low risk,and the combined risk typing of calcifications was assessed according to these two.Finally,an overall risk typing of CEM was obtained through combining the combined risk type of calcifications and accompanied enhancement or not.Then receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were drawn,the area under the curves(AUC)were calculated,and the efficacy of the above indexes for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications were evaluated and compared.Results Significant differences of morphology,distribution and accompanied enhancement were found between groups(all P＜0.05).The AUC of morphology risk,distribution risk,the combined risk of calcification,accompanied enhancement and CEM overall risk for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications was 0.709,0.678,0.774,0.800 and 0.875,respectively,of CEM overall risk was higher than that of the others(all P＜0.05).Conclusion CEM overall risk type obtained through integrating morphology and distribution manifestations of calcifications and enhancement type could improve the efficiency of CEM for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions with calcifications.

Cryoablation therapy with explicit anti-tumor mechanisms and histopathological manifestations has a long history.A large number of clinical practice has shown that cryoablation therapy is safe and effective,making it an ideal tumor treatment method in theory.Previously,its efficacy and clinical application were constrained by the limitations of refrigerants and refrigeration equipment.With the development of the new generation of cryoablation equipment represented by argon helium knives,significant progress has been made in refrigeration efficien-cy,ablation range,and precise temperature measurement,greatly promoting the progression of tumor cryoablation technology.This consensus systematically summarizes the mechanism of cryoablation technology,indications for oral mucosal melanoma(OMM)cryotherapy,clinical treatment process,adverse reactions and management,cryotherapy combination therapy,etc.,aiming to provide reference for carrying out the standardized cryoablation therapy of OMM.

Objective To investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of WD repeat domain 82(WDR82)protein in the pathogenesis and progression of glioma.Methods We analyzed the expression level of WDR82 in glioma tissues using GEPIA and UALCAN databases and further assessed WDR82 protein expression in glioma and adjacent normal tissues through immunohistochemical staining.The correlation between WDR82 expression and the prognosis of glioma patient was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier plotter.Experiments were conducted on A172 and U251 cell lines,which were categorized into four groups:control group(transfected with 3 μg pcDNA3),shR-control group(transfected with 3 μg pSilencer 2.1-U6),pWDR82 group(transfected with 3 μg pWDR82),and shR-WDR82 group(transfected with 3 μg shR-WDR82).Post-transfection,we confirmed transfection efficiency at 48 hours using qRT-PCR and measured cell viability at the same time point with CCK-8 assay.Clone formation assay was employed to assess cell proliferation capacity after 14 days of transfection,while flow cytometry was utilized to analyze cell apoptosis after 48 hours of transfection.Additionally,Western blotting was conducted to determine the expression levels of proteins related to proliferation and Akt/mTOR signaling pathway after 48 hours of transfection.Finally,the effect of WDR82 on tumor growth in NOD-SCID mice was investigated using tumor carrying experiment in vivo.Results Analysis of WDR82 expression in glioma tissues using GEPIA and UALCAN databases,along with immunohistochemical staining,revealed significantly higher expression levels compared to normal and paracancerous tissues(P＜0.05).Additionally,WDR82 expression was not associated with gender or age of patients(P＞0.05).Kaplan-Meier plotter analysis indicated that elevated WDR82 expression correlated with a poor prognosis in glioma patients(log-rank P=0.029).Overexpression of WDR82 notably enhanced the proliferation and inhibited the apoptosis of A172 and U251 cells,and also significantly upregulated the expression of MKI67,BCL2,CCND1,p-Akt and p-mTOR in A172 and U251 cells(P＜0.05).Conversely,WDR82 knockdown had the opposite effects,inhibiting cell proliferation,increasing apoptosis and downregulating the expression of MKI67,BCL2,CCND1,p-Akt and p-mTOR(P＜0.05).WDR82 knockdown in U251 cells significantly inhibited tumor growth in NOD-SCID mice(P＜0.05).Conclusion High expression of WDR82 promotes the proliferation of glioma cells and the growth of tumors in vivo by regulating the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.

Abstract Allergic diseases can occur in all systems of the body, covering the whole life cycle, from children to adults and to old age, can be lifelong onset and even fatal in severe cases. Children account for the largest proportion of the victims of allergic disease, Children s allergies start from scratch, ranging from mild to severe, from less to more, from single to multiple systems and systemic performance, so the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases in children is of great importance, which can not only prevent high risk allergic conditions from developing into allergic diseases, but also further block the process of allergy. At present, there is no consensus on the management system of allergic children in kindergartens and primary schools. The "Consensus on Allergy Management and Prevention in Kindergartens and Primary Schools", which includes the organizational structure, system construction and management of allergic children, provides evidence informed recommendations for the long term comprehensive management of allergic children in kindergartens and primary schools, and provides a basis for the establishment of the prevention system for allergic children.

Objective: To investigate the influence of light and heavy bite force on the mandibular movement trajectories, and the influence of bite force on virtual occlusal pre-adjustment of digital full crown. Methods: From October 2021 to March 2022, 10 postgraduate volunteers (3 males and 7 females, aged 22-26 years) were recruited from Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology. Maxillary and mandibular digital models of the participants were obtained by intraoral scanning. Jaw relations were digitally transferred under heavy bite force and mandibular movement trajectories under light and heavy bite force were recorded by jaw motion analyser. Three mandibular markers were chosen, namely the mesial proximal contact point of the central incisor (incisal point) and the mesial buccal cusp tips of the bilateral first molars. The three-dimensional displacements of the markers under two kinds of bite force in the intercuspal position (ICP), the sagittal projection of the three-dimensional displacements in the protrusive edge-to-edge position, and the coronal projection of the three-dimensional displacements in the lateral edge-to-edge position of upper and lower posterior teeth were measured. Single-sample t-test was used to compare the three-dimensional displacements and the corresponding sagittal projection and coronal projection with 0, respectively. The left maxillary central incisor and left mandibular first molar were virtually prepared by the reverse engineering software. Then dental design software was used to design digital full crown using the copy method. The mandibular movement trajectories under light and heavy bite force were separately used to guide virtual occlusal pre-adjustment. The three-dimensional deviations (mean deviations and root mean square) between the lingual surface of the left maxillary central incisor or the occlusal surface of the left mandibular first molar and that of the natural tooth before preparation were calculated (light bite force group and heavy bite force group), and the differences between the two groups were compared by the paired t-test. Results: Under the two kinds of bite force, the three-dimensional displacements of the markers in the ICP were (0.217±0.135), (0.210±0.133) and (0.237±0.101) mm, respectively; the sagittal projection of the three-dimensional displacements of the markers in the protrusive edge-to-edge position were (0.204±0.133), (0.288±0.148) and (0.292±0.136) mm, respectively; the coronal projection of the three-dimensional displacements of the mesial buccal cusp tips of the bilateral first molars in the lateral edge-to-edge position were (0.254±0.140) and (0.295±0.190) mm, respectively. The differences between the above displacements and 0 were statistically significant (P<0.05). The results of occlusal pre-adjustment showed that the mean deviations of the lingual surface of the left maxillary central incisor in the light and heavy bite force groups were (0.215±0.036) and (0.195±0.041) mm (t=3.95, P=0.004), respectively. The mean deviations of the occlusal surface of the left mandibular first molar were (0.144±0.084) and (0.100±0.096) mm (t=0.84, P=0.036), respectively. Conclusions: Both the light and heavy bite force have an influence on the mandibular movement trajectories. Virtual occlusal pre-adjustment of prostheses with mandibular movement trajectories under heavy bite force can obtain morphology of lingual or occlusal surfaces closer to the natural teeth before preparation.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical outcomes of anteromedial combined with lateral locking plate for complex proximal humeral fractures in the eldery. METHODS: From June 2018 to October 2020, 30 patients who underwent surgical treatment for Neer grade 3 to 4 proximal humeral fractures, including 8 males and 22 females, aged from 51 to 78 years old with an average of (61.5±7.5) years old. Of them, 15 patients had fractures fixed with anteromedial combined with lateral locking plate(ALLP group), whereas 15 received internal fixation with proximal humerus locking plate only(PHLP group). The clinical data, simple shoulder test (SST), humeral head height loss, varus angle and shoulder range of motion were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: All fractures were healed. The follow-up time ranged from 12 to 24 months, with an average of(14.3±2.9) months. The operation time of ALLP group was longer than that of PHLP group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in SST score between the two groups at 1, 3 and 12 months after operation (P>0.05). In terms of radiographic measurement, there was no significant difference in humeral head height loss and varus angle between the two groups at 1 and 3 months after operation (P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the height loss and varus angle of humeral head in ALLP group were lower than those in PHLP group (P<0.05). In shoulder range of motion, the range of forward elevation in ALLP group was larger than that in PHLP group 1 year after operation(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in external rotation between the two groups. CONCLUSION Anteromedial combined with lateral locking plate in the treatment of complex proximal humeral fractures in the elderly can increase the stability of the medial column and obtain a good fracture prognosis. But there are also disadvantages such as longer operation time, so it should be individualized according to the fracture type of the patient.

Male patients with prolactinomas usually present with typical hyperprolactinemia symptoms, including sexual dysfunction and infertility. However, clinical factors related to sexual dysfunction and surgical outcomes in these patients remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the outcomes of male patients with prolactinomas after transsphenoidal surgery and the risk factors affecting sexual dysfunction. This study was conducted on 58 male patients who underwent transsphenoidal surgery for prolactinomas between May 2014 and December 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, China. We evaluated the sexual function of patients before and after surgery through International Index of Erectile Function-5 scores, libido, and frequency of morning erection. Of the 58 patients, 48 (82.8%) patients had sexual intercourse preoperatively. Among those 48 patients, 41 (85.4%) patients presented with erectile dysfunction. The preoperative International Index of Erectile Function-5 scores in patients with macroprolactinomas were significantly higher than those in patients with giant prolactinomas (17.63 ± 0.91 vs 13.28 ± 1.43; P = 0.01). Postoperatively, the incidence of erectile dysfunction was 47.9%, which was significantly lower than that preoperatively (85.4%; P = 0.01). Twenty-eight (68.3%) patients demonstrated an improvement in erectile dysfunction. Tumor size and invasiveness were significantly correlated with the improvement of erectile dysfunction. Preoperative testosterone <2.3 ng ml^-1 was an independent predictor of improvement in erectile dysfunction. In conclusion, our results indicated that tumor size and invasiveness were important factors affecting the improvement of sexual dysfunction in male patients with prolactinoma. The preoperative testosterone level was an independent predictor related to the improvement of erectile dysfunction.
