Objective: To understand the allocation and use of safety seats for preschool children and explore its related factors, so as to provide a scientific reference for promoting the usage of safety seats. Methods: A stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 3 143 parents of preschool children aged 3 to 6 from six kindergartens in Shunyi District, Beijing from January 3 to 10, 2022. An online questionnaire survey was conducted to collect and evaluate the equipment and use of child safety seats in different characteristics of preschool children, as well as their scores of health beliefs. Multiple factor Logistic regression analysis was used to investigated the related factors of safety seat configuration and use. Results: The equipping rate and usage rate of safety seats for preschool children were 66.56% and 58.45%, respectively. The proportion of equipped and used safety seats for preschool children in core families (69.52%, 62.23%) were higher than that in large families (64.35%, 55.62%), only child families ( 72.39 %, 64.87%) were higher than non only child families (61.49%, 52.86%), and urban families (71.63%, 63.04%) were higher than rural families (52.31%, 45.51%) ( χ 2=9.23, 13.86; 41.72, 46.44; 101.96 ,76.97,all P <0.05) . As the educational level of parents ( χ 2 trend =154.23,98.76) and annual income of the family ( χ 2 trend =155.78,127.69) rised, the reporting rates of the equipped and used child safety seats in the family also increased(all P <0.05 ). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of different dimensions of health beliefs for the provision ( t =-20.22-18.16) and use ( t =24.32-24.17) of safety seats for preschool children(all P <0.05). After adjusting for child sex, child age, family annual income, parental education level, family type, whether the child was an only child, and place of residence，multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that preschool children with higher perceived susceptibility score( OR =1.11, 1.08), higher self efficacy score( OR =1.23, 1.33), and higher suggestive factors score( OR =1.08, 1.12) were more likely to have and use safety seats in their families, while preschool children with higher perceived impairments score( OR =0.82, 0.80) were less likely to have and use safety seats in their families (all P <0.05). Conclusions The installation rate of child safety seats needs to be improved, and there is also a certain gap in their use after installation. Parents of preschool children should improve susceptibility and self efficacy to safety seat equipment and use, and perceptual barriers should be reduced.

Coronary chronic total occlusion(CTO)remains a significant challenge in the field of interventional therapy for coronary artery disease.With advancements in interventional techniques,particularly retrograde approaches,the success rate of CTO interventions has improved.The key steps of retrograde intervention include traversing collateral channels with the retrograde guidewire,wiring the occlusion segment,and establishing antegrade access.In this case,the patient had a heavily calcified occlusion at the left circumflex artery(LCX)ostium jailed by the prior stent implanted in the left main and anterior descending arteries,making it difficult to establish antegrade access using conventional methods after retrograde guidewire crossing.The procedure was successfully completed by employing a domestically developed intravascular snare system combined with a pre-assembled extension catheter technique to capture the retrograde guidewire and establish antegrade access,followed by stent implantation at the LCX ostium.This innovative approach provides a new strategy for complex CTO retrograde interventions,particularly in cases where retrograde guidewire entry into the antegrade guiding catheter is challenging.

BACKGROUND:Glucose metabolism plays a crucial role in maintaining the normal physiological function of the body.Glucose metabolism disorder can lead to a range of health problems.At present,the molecular mechanism of glucose metabolism and potential gene targets in osteoarthritis need to be further studied.OBJECTIVE:To analyze the genes related to glucose metabolism in osteoarthritis by bioinformatics methods,and to verify them by cell experiments in vitro,so as to provide new ideas for prevention and treatment of osteoarthritis from the perspective of glucose metabolism.METHODS:Differentially expressed genes and glucose metabolism related genes were screened out from GEO database and GeneCards database.The genes related to both osteoarthritis and glucose metabolism were obtained.Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analysis were used to screen the functions and pathways of these genes.To further investigate the interactions between these genes,a protein-protein interaction network was constructed and computational methods using Cytoscape software were utilized to identify key genes(Hub genes)for osteoarthritis glucose metabolism.In addition,CIBERSORT algorithm was used to analyze immune cell infiltration in GSE98918 data set.Finally,the expression of Hub gene was verified by cell experiment in vitro.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 134 osteoarthritis glucose metabolism-related genes were obtained.GO enrichment analysis showed that GO was mainly involved in the reaction of toxic substances,the positive regulation of inflammatory reaction,the reaction of lipopolysaccharide and so on.KEGG enrichment analysis showed that it was closely related to PI3K-Akt signaling pathway,interleukin-17 signaling pathway,and AGE-RAGE signaling pathway in diabetic complications.Macrophages,monocytes,resting natural killer cells,regulatory T cells,and CD8+T cells were the main infiltrating cells obtained by immune infiltration analysis.In vitro cell experiments showed that the expression of Hub genes SERPINF1,TAC1,GLUL,APOE,and TMEM176A in the experimental group was significantly different from that in the control group.The mRNA expression of HLA-DRA was not statistically significant.The results show that SERPINF1,TAC1,Glul,APOE,and TMEM176A may be the key genes of glucose metabolism in osteoarthritis,and may be potential new targets for the prevention and treatment of osteoarthritis.

Objective:To evaluate the application value of interactive learning in enhancing the diagnosis of breast cancer by residents in the department of radiology through training based on the interpretation of breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features by the breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS).Methods:A total of 23 trainees completed BI-RADS standardized reports of 250 cases. These cases were divided into a pre-training group (Group 1) and post-training groups (initial training, Groups 2-4; advanced training, Groups 5-6), forming a total of six groups. The efficacy of interactive learning through course lectures and case-based practice in enhancing their ability in breast cancer diagnosis was analyzed. All trainees generated reports based on the BI-RADS scoring criteria. Interpretation agreement rates, evaluation time, and confidence levels were recorded. SPSS 25.0 was used for independent samples t test, chi-square test, and rank-sum test. Results:During the initial stage of training, the agreement rate of 150 cases reached 80.00%, which was recommended as the endpoint for completion of the initial learning phase. A significant difference existed between Group 4 and Group 1 ( P=0.012) in agreement rate. Statistically significant differences were noted in evaluation time for Groups 5 and 6 before and after advanced training ( P=0.001 and 0.007, respectively). A significant difference in confidence level was observed for Group 5 ( P=0.005). Conclusions:Interactive training based on BI-RADS standardized reporting can improve the diagnosis of breast diseases by residents in the department of radiology, particularly for enhancing the quality of reports for mass-like enhancement breast diseases.

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a central neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive cognitive decline and memory impairment in clinical. Currently, there are no effective treatments for AD. In recent years, a variety of therapeutic approaches from different perspectives have been explored to treat AD. Although the drug therapies targeted at the clearance of amyloid β-protein (Aβ) had made a breakthrough in clinical trials, there were associated with adverse events. Neuroinflammation plays a crucial role in the onset and progression of AD. Continuous neuroinflammatory was considered to be the third major pathological feature of AD, which could promote the formation of extracellular amyloid plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. At the same time, these toxic substances could accelerate the development of neuroinflammation, form a vicious cycle, and exacerbate disease progression. Reducing neuroinflammation could break the feedback loop pattern between neuroinflammation, Aβ plaque deposition and Tau tangles, which might be an effective therapeutic strategy for treating AD. Traditional Chinese herbs such as Polygonum multiflorum and Curcuma were utilized in the treatment of AD due to their ability to mitigate neuroinflammation. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and indomethacin had been shown to reduce the level of inflammasomes in the body, and taking these drugs was associated with a low incidence of AD. Biosynthetic nanomaterials loaded with oxytocin were demonstrated to have the capability to anti-inflammatory and penetrate the blood-brain barrier effectively, and they played an anti-inflammatory role via sustained-releasing oxytocin in the brain. Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells could reduce neuroinflammation and inhibit the activation of microglia. The secretion of mesenchymal stem cells could not only improve neuroinflammation, but also exert a multi-target comprehensive therapeutic effect, making it potentially more suitable for the treatment of AD. Enhancing the level of TREM2 in microglial cells using gene editing technologies, or application of TREM2 antibodies such as Ab-T1, hT2AB could improve microglial cell function and reduce the level of neuroinflammation, which might be a potential treatment for AD. Probiotic therapy, fecal flora transplantation, antibiotic therapy, and dietary intervention could reshape the composition of the gut microbiota and alleviate neuroinflammation through the gut-brain axis. However, the drugs of sodium oligomannose remain controversial. Both exercise intervention and electromagnetic intervention had the potential to attenuate neuroinflammation, thereby delaying AD process. This article focuses on the role of drug therapy, gene therapy, stem cell therapy, gut microbiota therapy, exercise intervention, and brain stimulation in improving neuroinflammation in recent years, aiming to provide a novel insight for the treatment of AD by intervening neuroinflammation in the future.

Objective To analyze the effect of Hsa-circ-0101216 on gemcitabine(GEM)chemotherapy resistance in pancreatic cancer and its mechanism.Methods Differentially expressed circRNAs between GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells and parent cells were screened using the GEO database.Pancreatic cancer GEM resistant cell lines(BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM)were constructed by intermittent concentration gradient method.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of Hsa-circ-0101216 in cells.GEM resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines were taken and divided into sh-circ-0101216 group(knockdown of circ-0101216),sh-NC group(transfected with sh-NC),and blank control group(untreated).CCK-8 assay and EdU proliferation assay were used to detect the half inhibitory concentration(IC50)of GEM and proliferation ability of cells in each group.Western blotting was performed to detect the expression of multidrug resistance-related protein 1(MRP1),breast cancer resistance protein(BCRP),and human equilibrative nucleoside transporter-1(hENT-1).A subcutaneous xenograft tumor model of human pancreatic cancer in nude mice was constructed,and sh-NC+GEM group and sh-circ-0101216+GEM group(n=6)were set up.The volume and weight of xenograft tumor in nude mice were compared between the two groups.Western blotting and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression of MRP1,BCRP,and hENT-1 proteins in xenograft tumor tissues,and EDU proliferation assay was used to detect the proliferation ability of tumor cells.Results The GEO database screening showed that Hsa-circ-0101216 was up-regulated in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines.Pancreatic cancer GEM-resistant cell lines were successfully constructed,and the expression levels of Hsa-circ-0101216 and the IC50 value in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM were significantly higher than those in parental cells(P<0.05).In sh-circ-0101216 group,the IC50 values of GEM,cell viability,EdU positivity rate,and the expression levels of MRP1 and BCRP proteins in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cells BxPC-3-GEM and Capan-1-GEM were significantly lower than those in blank control group and sh-NC group,while the expression level of hENT-1 protein was significantly higher(P<0.05 or P<0.001).In sh-circ-0101216+GEM group,the weight and volume of subcutaneous xenograft tumors in nude mice,the expression levels and positive expression rates of MRP1 and BCRP proteins in tumor tissues,and the EdU positive rate were significantly lower than those in sh-NC+GEM group,while the expression level and positive expression rate of hENT-1 protein were significantly higher(P<0.05).Conclusions Hsa-circ-0101216 is highly expressed in GEM-resistant pancreatic cancer cell lines.Its knockdown can inhibit the proliferation of pancreatic cancer cells and enhance the chemosensitivity of pancreatic cancer cells to GEM.The mechanism may be related to the regulation of transmembrane transporter protein expression.

Objective To explore the spatiotemporal expression patterns of Patched 1(Ptch1)and insulin enhancer binding protein-1(Isl 1)in mouse embryonic foregut and their relationship with the early development of trachea-main bronchus.Methods The foregut of 60 mouse embryos at E9.5-12.5 was separated for the detection of Isl1 and sonic hedgehog(Shh)protein by Western blotting.Serial paraffin sections of 6 mouse embryos at E9.5-14.5 were taken for immunohistochemical staining and immunofluorescence double staining with Isl1,Ptch1,forkhead box protein A2(Foxa2),type Ⅱ collagen α1 chain(Col2a1)and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),as well as HE staining and Masson staining.Results The expression trend of Isl1 and Shh in foregut endoderm at E9.5-12.5 was similar,and the peak of Shh expression was later than Isl1.The foregut developed into the trachea at E9.5-12.5,Ptch1 was expressed in the thickening and protrusion of the respiratory endoderm,the laryngal-tracheal groove and the solid cell cord,accompanied by the increase and aggregation of Isl1-positive mesenchymal cells,forming a characteristic pyramidal structure centered on the respiratory endoderm and the solid cell cord;The main bronchus appeared at E12.5-13.5,Ptch1 was only expressed in its lateral wall,accompanied by the accumulation of Isl1-positive mesenchymal cells;The trachea-main bronchial epithelium lost Ptch1 expression and the surrounding Isl 1-positive mesenchymal cells also decreased rapidly at E13.5-14.5.Co12a1-positive chondrocytes first appeared in the Isl1-positive mesenchymal area adjacent to the Ptch1-positive epithelium at E12.5;Col2a1-positive cartilage was nested within the Isl1-positive mesenchymic area in a"C"shape and expanded in a proximal-distal pattern at E12.5-13.5;Col2a1-positive cartilage extended to the dorsal trachea beyond the Isl1-positive mesenchyma and encircles α-SMA positive smooth muscle in a circular manner at E14.5.Conclusion The expression of Ptch1 in the foregut endoderm is involved in the development and morphogenesis of the trachea-main bronchus epithelium,and is closely related to the proliferation and aggregation of Isl1-positive mesenchyme in the trachea-main bronchial wall,Subsequently,they jointly determine the time,location and extent of airway cartilage.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of bedside ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter(ONSD)combined with serum matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)in assessing postoperative intracranial hypertension in patients with severe traumatic brain injury.Methods A total of 100 patients with severe traumatic brain injury were enrolled as study subjects.According to postoperative intracranial pressure status,the patients were divided into normal group(n=33)and elevated group(n=67).ONSD,MMP-9 and NLR lev-els were compared between the two groups.The correlations among ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR in the elevated group were analyzed.The influencing factors of postoperative intracranial hypertension in patients with severe traumatic brain injury were evaluated.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to assess the diagnostic value of ONSD combined with serum MMP-9 and NLR for postoperative intracranial hypertension.Results ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR levels were significantly higher in the elevated group than those in the normal group(P＜0.05).ONSD was positively correlated with MMP-9(r=0.367,P=0.002),ONSD was positively correlated with NLR(r=0.419,P＜0.01),and MMP-9 was positively correlated with NLR(r=0.324,P=0.007).Elevated ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR were risk factors for increased in-tracranial pressure after severe craniocerebral injury surgery(P＜0.05).The area under the curve for evaluation of postoperative intracranial pressure increase in patients with severe craniocerebral in-jury by combination of ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR was 0.976(95％CI,0.952 to 1.000),the sensitivity was 91.04％,and the specificity was 93.94％.The combined evaluation value of ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR for increased intracranial pressure after surgery in patients with severe craniocerebral injury was higher(Zcombined with-ONSD=3.453,P=0.001,Zcombined with-MMP-9=3.637,P＜0.001,Zcombined with-NLR=2.654,P=0.008).Conclusion In patients with increased intracra-nial pressure after severe craniocerebral injury surgery,their levels of ONSD,serum MMP-9 and NLR increase,and the increase of the three indicators will increase the risk of increased intracranial pressure after surgery.The combined detection of the three indicators has certain value in evaluating the increase of intracranial pressure in patients after surgery.

Objective To investigate the effects of mirabegron combined with electroacupuncture on urodynamic parameters in rats with overactive bladder(OAB)by regulating the insulin receptor substrate(IRS)/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(PI3 K)/protein kinase B(AKT)/endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)signaling pathway.Methods Sixty female SD rats were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into control group,model group,mirabegron group,electroacupunc-ture group,and mirabegron+electroacupuncture group using a random number table method,with 12 rats in each group.Except for the control group,the other groups were used to establish OAB rat models by the bladder outlet obstruction method.The mirabegron group received intragastric administra-tion of 8 mg/kg mirabegron suspension.The electroacupuncture group received electroacupuncture stimu-lation for 5 min each time.The mirabegron+electroacupuncture group received intragastric administration of mirabegron suspension while undergoing electroacupuncture stimulation.The control group,the model group,and the electroacupuncture group received an equal volume of normal saline intragastrically once a day for 7 consecutive days.Urodynamic parameters(basal micturition pressure,peak mictu-rition pressure,micturition interval,and residual urine volume)were measured in each group.After measuring bladder blood flow using a laser speckle imaging instrument,the wet weight of the rat bladder tissue was weighed,and the bladder index was calculated.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the contents of urinary nerve growth factor(NGF),and interleu-kin-1[3(IL-1β),malondialdehyde(MDA),and superoxide dismutase(SOD)in bladder tissue.Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of phosphorylated(p)-IRS1,p-PI3K,p-AKT and p-eNOS in bladder tissue.Results Compared with the model group,the basal micturition pressure,peak micturition pressure,and bladder index were all decreased,the residual urine vol-ume was reduced,the micturition interval was prolonged,the bladder blood flow was increased,the SOD content in bladder tissue was increased,the NGF content in urine and the IL-1 β and MDA contents in bladder tissue were decreased,and the expression levels of p-IRS1,p-PI3K,p-AKT and p-eNOS were increased in the mirabegron group,the electroacupuncture group,and the mirabegron+electroacupuncture group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).The results of the above indicators in the mirabegron+electroacupuncture group were all better than those in the mirabegron group and the electroacupuncture group,with statistically significant differ-ences(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Mirabegron combined with electroacupuncture can improve urodynamic parameters in OAB rats than used alone,and its mechanism may be related to the activation of the IRS/PI3K/AKT/eNOS signaling pathway.
