Objective:To screen out the differentially expressed genes(DEGs)in multiple primary lung cancers(MPLCs)using bioinformatics methods,and to analyze their biological functions and their influence in the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma.Methods:Single-cell transcriptome sequencing data(GSE200972)was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database.After preliminary data processing with R software,the Seurat R package was used for data processing,cell clustering,and annotation.The clusterProfiler R package was used for Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA).The STRING database and Cytoscape software were employed to construct the protein-protein interaction(PPI)network and to screen out the key genes(Hub genes).The gene expression levels in the lung adenocarcinoma database were analyzed using Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis(GEPIA)database.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the gene expression in tumor tissue of A549 xenograft mice and lung tissue of normal mice.Kaplan-Meier Plotter was used for prognosis analysis.Results:Seven cell types were identified from cell clustering analysis,which were epithelial cells,endothelial cells,fibroblasts,T cells and natural killer(NK)cells,B cells,myeloid cells,and mast cells.A total of 14 605 DEGs were screened out between tumor epithelial cells and normal epithelial cells.The GSEA results revealed four activated pathways in tumor samples[myelocytomatosis oncogene(MYC)pathway,P53 pathway,oxidative phosphorylation pathway and glycolysis pathway]and one inhibited pathway[tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and nuclear factor kappa B(NF-κB)pathway].The Hub genes identified from PPI network included CXC motif chemokine ligand 8(CXCL8),glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase(GAPDH),CXC motif chemokine receptor 4(CXCR4),kirsten rat sarcoma viral proto-oncogene(KRAS),CXC motif chemokine ligand 1(CXCL1),C-C motif chemokine ligand 2(CCL2),mucin 1(MUC1),and secreted phosphoprotein 1(SPP1).The GEPIA database analysis and animal experiments showed that the expression levels of SPP1 mRNA in non-small cell lung cancer tissue were increased compared with normal lung tissue(P＜0.01).The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis indicated that the patients with high expression level of SPP1 had shorter overall survival(OS)than those with low expression level(P＜0.01).Conclusion:There are activation of oncogene-related pathways and activation of tumor suppressor pathway antagonizing tumor progression in MPLCs.Moreover,elevated expression of SPP1 in non-small cell lung cancer may indicate a relatively poor prognosis.

Rodent models play a crucial role in research on human periodontal diseases,providing key evidence for investigation into the pathological mechanisms of periodontal bone defects.Relevant research in the field involves gene expression,inflammatory regulation mechanisms,host-microbial interactions,as well as disease resolution and healing processes.Research methodology in the field falls under 2 categories-periodontal inflammation models and surgical defect models.The former simulates periodontal defects by inducing periodontal diseases,while the latter constructs clinically simulated periodontal defects through surgical removal of periodontal tissue.However,the currently available animal models of periodontitis face challenges in simultaneously capturing the disease complexity,tracking dynamic repair processes,and meeting translational needs.Herein,we reviewed and summarized the methods and characteristics of periodontal disease modeling in recent years.We proposed the establishment of a multimodal assessment framework integrating technologies such as spatial transcriptomics,single-cell sequencing,and in vivo fluorescence imaging,which may serve as a critical pathway for overcoming existing research challenges.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different surgical timing on the surgical treatment of renal angiomyolipoma(RAML)with rupture and hemorrhage.Methods:The demographic data and peri-operative data of 31 patients with rupture and hemorrhage of RAML admitted to our medical center from June 2013 to February 2023 were collected.The surgery within 7 days after hemorrhage was defined as a short-term surgery group,the surgery between 7 days and 6 months after hemorrhage was defined as a me-dium-term surgery group,and the surgery beyond 6 months after hemorrhage was defined as a long-term surgery group.The perioperative related indicators among the three groups were compared.Results:This study collected 31 patients who underwent surgical treatment for RAML rupture and hemorrhage,of whom 13 were males and 18 were females,with an average age of(46.2±11.3)years.The short-term surgery group included 7 patients,the medium-term surgery group included 12 patients and the long-term surgery group included 12 patients.In terms of tumor diameter,the patients in the long-term surgery group were significantly lower than those in the recent surgery group[(6.6±2.4)cmvs.(10.0±3.0)cm,P=0.039].In terms of operation time,the long-term surgery group was significantly shorter than the mid-term surgery group[(157.5±56.8)min vs.(254.8±80.1)min,P=0.006],and there was no sig-nificant difference between other groups.In terms of estimated blood loss during surgery,the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group[35(10,100)mL vs.650(300,1 200)mL,P＜0.001],and there was no significant difference between other groups.In terms of intraoperative blood transfusion,the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group[0(0,0)mL vs.200(0,700)mL,P=0.014],and there was no significant difference between other groups.In terms of postoperative hospitalization days,the long-term surgery group was sig-nificantly lower than the mid-term surgery group[5(4,7)d vs.7(6,10)d,P=0.011],and there was no significant difference between other groups.Conclusion:We believe that for patients with RAML rupture and hemorrhage,reoperation for more than 6 months is a relatively safe time range,with minimal intraoperative bleeding.Therefore,it is more recommended to undergo surgical treatment after the hema-toma is systematized through conservative treatment.

Background Studies on the relationships of environmental noise exposure with negative emotions and sleep quality have long been reported. Self-perceived noise intensity is not only related to environmental noise exposure, but also reflects an individual's susceptibility to noise; however, few studies on self-perceived noise intensity, negative emotions, and sleep quality have been reported, and it is not clear whether negative emotions play a mediating role in the relationship between self-perceived noise intensity and sleep quality. Objective To analyze the mediating role of negative emotions (anxiety, depression, and stress) in the relationship between self-perceived noise intensity and sleep quality in noise-exposed workers, and to provide a scientific basis for addressing psychological problems and sleep quality induced by noise exposure. Methods Stratified cluster sampling was used to select noise-exposed workers from a large equipment manufacturing plant in Chengdu from May to June 2023, and demographic characteristics were investigated using a self-designed general information questionnaire; self-perceived noise intensity was reported by the study subjects as the noise intensity of their workplaces; sleep quality was synthesized from three indicators: night sleep duration, self-perceived sleep quality, and sleep-related symptoms; the Anxiety-Depression-Stress Scale (DASS-21 scale) was used to evaluate anxiety, depression, and stress of a worker. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the pathways of negative emotions (anxiety, depression, and stress) between self-perceived noise intensity and sleep quality. Results The positive rates of negative emotions were 33.1% (anxiety symptoms, 215/649), 26.0% (depression symptoms, 169/649), and 14.0% (stress symptoms, 91/649), respectively in a total of 649 noise-exposed workers. Self-perceived noise intensity was positively correlated with sleep quality score (r=0.218, P<0.001) and negative emotions (anxiety, depression, and stress) (r=0.167, 0.145, 0.167, P<0.001); sleep quality score was positively correlated with negative emotions (anxiety, depression, and stress) (r=0.512, 0.447, 0.513, P<0.001). The results of path analysis showed that the negative emotions (anxiety, depression, and stress) partially mediated between self-perceived noise intensity and sleep quality (β=0.123，P<0.001). Self-perceived noise intensity was positively correlated with negative emotions and sleep quality, and there was a path of self-perceived noise intensity → negative emotion → sleep quality (P<0.001), and the mediating effect accounted for 42.71%. Conclusion The positive rates of anxiety, depression, and stress are high among the noise-receiving workers in this manufacturing industry, and negative emotions characterized by anxiety, depression, and stress partially mediate the relationship between self-perceived noise intensity and sleep quality.
