Coronary heart disease （CHD） has a distinct circadian rhythmicity in its onset， which is closely related to the waxing and waning of qi and blood in the channel passages of the human body. Grounded in the circadian rhythm theory of "correspondence between heaven and humankind"， this paper explores the pathogenic evolution rules of qi-blood disharmony， channel obstruction， interacting as cause and effect with circadian rhythm disorders in CHD. Clinically， CHD can be observed to attack in the early morning， at night， in the afternoon， and at fixed or unfixed circadian intervals. The pathogenesis rhythms at different time nodes can correspondingly reflect the susceptibility tendencies and pathological stress responses of the human body to core pathogeneses such as yang deficiency with cold congelation， yin deficiency with yang floating， qi and yin deficiency， and liver constraint with qi stagnation under specific temporal states. Treatment should be adapted to the season and time， regulating yin and yang in accordance with biological rhythms. It is recommended to regulate qi during the daytime by promoting ascending and dispersing to unblock the channel passages， and select the appropriate timing for administration to harness natural timing. At the Mao （卯） hour， yang ascends while yin descends， and taking medication at this time conforms to the ascending of yang qi. At the Wu （午） hour， the heart meridian is active， and taking medication at this time warms the channel passages and assists heart yang， which can be treated with modified Buzhong Yiqi Decoction （补中益气汤） or Shengyang Yiwei Decoction （升阳益胃汤）. At night， blood should be harmonized， when the channel passages are unblocked through nourishing， restraining， and searching， with Lianmei Decoction （连梅汤） combined with Dahuang Zhechong Pill （大黄䗪虫丸）. Following the temporal rhythm， the focus is put on the transitional time of day and night and the four seasons to treat disease before it arises， resonating and corresponding with the natural rhythm.

Objective:To evaluate the role of necroptosis in paclitaxel-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice.Methods:Thirty SPF healthy male C57BL/6N mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 20-25 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=10 each) using a random number table method: vehicle control group (Veh group), paclitaxel group (PTX group), and paclitaxel+ a specific inhibitor of necroptosis Necrostatin-1 group (P+ N group). In PTX group and P+ N group, paclitaxel 10 mg/kg (diluted to 5 mg/ml in anhydrous ethanol and castor oil [1∶1], and further diluted to 1 mg/ml in 0.9% normal saline before use) was intraperitoneally injected daily for 7 consecutive days to induce cognitive dysfunction. P+ N group received an intraperitoneal injection of Necrostatin-1 6.5 mg/kg (diluted to 10 mg/ml in dimethyl sulfoxide, and further diluted to 1 mg/ml in 0.9% normal saline before use) at 2 h before paclitaxel administration every other day, 4 times in total. Veh group received the equal volume of solvent at the matched time points as previously described in P+ N group. After establishment of the model, spontaneous locomotor activity was assessed using the open field test, followed by the novel object recognition test and the Morris water maze to evaluate the cognitive function. The animals were sacrificed after the end of the Morris water maze test, and the hippocampal tissues were collected for determination of the expression of necroptosis-related proteins receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1), RIPK3, mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL), and phospho-MLKL (p-MLKL) (by Western blot analysis) and contents of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) (double immunofluorescence staining) and for observation of the localization of programmed necrosis cells (using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). Results:There were no significant differences in the total distance traveled and mean movement speed in the open field test or swimming speed in the Morris water maze test among the three groups ( P>0.05). Compared to Veh group, the time spent in the central zone in the open field and time spent in the original platform quadrant were significantly shortened, the discrimination index was decreased, the escape latency was prolonged, the number of crossing the original platform was reduced, the expression of RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL and p-MLKL was up-regulated, the contents of TNF-α and IL-1β were increased, and the number of RIPK1-positive neurons was increased in PTX group ( P<0.05). Compared to PTX group, the time spent in the central zone in the open field test and time spent in the original platform quadrant were significantly prolonged, the discrimination index was increased, the escape latency was shortened, the number of crossing the original platform was increased, the expression of RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL and p-MLKL was down-regulated, the contents of TNF-α and IL-1β were decreased, and the number of RIPK1-positive neurons was decreased in P+ N group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Necroptosis in hippocampal neurons can lead to neuroinflammation, thus contributeing to paclitaxel-induced cognitive dysfunction in mice.

Objective:To discuss the correlation of International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) pathological grading with 18F-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-1007 positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) parameters and serum total prostate specific antigen (tPSA) in prostate cancer, and assess the clinical value of PET/CT combined with tPSA in predicting the ISUP pathological grade of prostate cancer. Methods:The correlation of ISUP pathological grade with primary parameters of PET/CT images and serum tPSA of 117 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer at Shanxi Cancer Hospital from August 2018 to February 2023 and taken 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT imaging were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to identify the independent influencing factors for ISUP pathological grading of prostate cancer. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to predict the efficacy between the high and low ISUP grades for prostate cancer. Results:Of the 117 patients, 20 were in ISUP Group 1, 25 in Group 2, 18 in Group 3, 32 in Group 4, and 22 in Group 5. Of these, 63 were in the low-grade group (Groups 1-3) and 54 were in the high-grade group (Groups 4-5). The tumor long diameter was 3.10 (2.05, 4.25) cm, the prostate volume was 40.11 (33.13, 51.85) cm 3, the serum tPSA was 19.71 (12.25, 42.83) ng/ml, the prostate specific antigen density (PSAD) was 0.51 (0.31, 1.01) ng·ml -1·cm -3, the maximum standard uptake value of the lesion (SUVmax) was 15.24 (10.87, 22.03), and the tumor/spleen uptake ratio (TSR) was 1.61 (1.08, 2.15) in the 117 patients. The correlation analysis displayed that the SUVmax, TSR, and tPSA were positively correlated with ISUP groups ( r=0.640, 0.619, and 0.500, P＜0.01). The differences among SUVmax, TSR, long diameter, tPSA, and PSAD were statistically significant when compared among the five ISUP groups ( H=48.98, 45.63, 26.82, 33.95, and 23.81, P＜0.001). The differencesin serum tPSA ( z=5.19), PSAD ( z=4.64), long diameter ( z=3.19), SUVmax ( z=5.57), and TSR ( z=5.53) of the patients between the low-grade group and the high-grade group were statistically significant ( P＜0.01). In multivariate analysis, TSR ( OR=4.172, 95% CI: 2.095-8.308, P＜0.001) and the serum tPSA ( OR=1.042, 95% CI: 1.014-1.070, P＜0.01) were independent influencing factors for ISUP grades. ROC analysis revealed that the area under the curve for the 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT parameters SUVmax and TSR to predict low- or high-grade ISUP for prostate cancer was 0.800 (95% CI: 0.717-0.883) and 0.797 (95% CI: 0.713-0.881), respectively. Among the 70 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy, the postoperative recurrence rate of high-grade ISUP patients was higher than that of low-grade patients (54.8% and 25.6%, χ 2=6.21, P＜0.05). Conclusions:18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT has good application in predicting ISUP grading of prostate cancer. TSR and the serum tPSA are independent predictors for the pathological grade.

BACKGROUND:Tyrosine kinase inhibitors,as well as other types of small-molecule cancer drugs,can cause severe cardiotoxicity. OBJECTIVE:To perform a heart safety re-evaluation by observing the effects of antitumor drugs on isolated heart electrocardiograph,cardiac action potential and associated ion channels and cytotoxicity. METHODS:Extracorporeal cardiac perfusion was given to the isolated rabbit heart using Langendorff perfusion:Sunitinib(0.3,3,10 μmol/L),Crizotinib(0.3,1,3 μmol/L),and Doxorubicin(1,30 μmol/L)were perfused sequentially for 120 minutes to record electrocardiograph and left ventricular pressure.A blank control group was set for comparison.Manual patch clamp was used to record the effects of Crizotinib,Sunitinib,Doxorubicin on hERG,Cav1.2,Nav1.5 channel currents and action potential in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes.Adenosine triphosphate level in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes was detected by CellTiter-Glo luminescent cell viability assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Isolated rabbit heart using Langendorff perfusion:Compared with the blank ontrol group,Sunitinib and Crizotinib at≥3 μmol/L decreased heart rate(P<0.01)and prolonged QT/QTc interval(P<0.01),and reduced left ventricular pressure to different extents.Manual patch clamp recording:Compared with the blank control group,Sunitinib and Crizotinib at 3 μmol/L inhibited the activities of hERG,Nav1.5 and Cav1.2 channels and significantly prolonged the duration of action potential(P<0.01).According to the analysis of the test article,the difference between the labeled concentration and the measured concentration of the recovered solution was not significant.Cell viability assays:Compared with the blank control group,adenosine triphosphate content in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocytes significantly decreased after treatment with Sunitinib(IC50=4.64 μmol/L),Doxorubicin(IC50=4.21 μmol/L)and Crizotinib(IC50=2.87 μmol/L),indicating that cell viability significantly decreased(P<0.01).To conclude,this study successfully established an early cardiac safety evaluation method for antitumor drugs,which provides good support and help for the subsequent development of antitumor drugs.

Objective:To realize the optimization and upgradation of the detection method of you only look once(YOLO)algorithm model based on the improved YOLO network on the ultrasound image for breast tumor.Methods:A total of 659 images of breast tumor of the Kaggle database were selected as the initially dataset,and the image annotation tool Labelimg was used to conduct pre-labeling for the detection targets in the images.According to a ratio as 7:3,629 images of the 659 images were divided into the train set and validation set,and the other 30 images were used as the test set.The convolutional block attention module(CBAM)and bidirectional feature pyramid network(BiFPN)were introduced into the original YOLO algorithm to underwent structural improvement,which was named as YOLOv5-BiFPN-CBAM.Both the train set and validation set were placed in original YOLO algorithm model and YOLOv5-BiFPN-CBAM model to conduct train,which included 200 rounds of iterative training.The obtained optimal weight files were used in the final test of test set.Results:After 200 rounds of iterative train for two kinds of models,the test results of validation set indicated that the mean values of average precision of two kinds of models were respectively 72.1%and 80.5%for all ultrasound images of breast tumor.The result,that the optimal weight file of improved model was tested by test set,indicated the test ability of improved model was significantly enhanced than that of original model for small target in image.Conclusion:Compared with the original YOLO algorithm model,the improved YOLO algorithm model has higher recognition capability for image,which also enhances precision and sensitivity in identifying small targets of ultrasound images of breast tumor.This model is helpful to improve the diagnostic efficiency in clinical practice for breast tumor.

Objective To analyze the distribution of carbapenem-resistant strains and the transmission mode of resistance genes in the bacteria strains from urinary system of the individuals outside hospitals,and further explore the impacts of the antibiotics with different antibacterial mechanisms on the conjugation transfer of resistant plasmids.Methods The imipenem-resistant strains from 991 non-re-petitive urine samples of healthy individuals were screened for determining the carbapenem-resistance genotypes.Using the multilocus sequence typing(MLST)method,the main carbapenem-resistant strains were classified to determine the phylogenetic relationship be-tween different sequence types(STs)and reveal the transmission mode of resistance genes in the individuals outside hospitals.The conjugation experiment was used to analyze the effects of different sub-inhibitory concentrations of ampicillin,ciprofloxacin,and genta-micin on the conjugation efficiency of resistant plasmids in the bacteria of donor and/or recipient at different times.Results A total of 18 non-repetitive carbapenem-resistant strains(1.82％,18/991)were detected in healthy individuals outside hospitals,among which Escherichia coli(E.coli)(44.44％,8/18)was the main strain with main genotype being blaKPC-2(7/8).MLST showed that the 7 strains of E.coli with blaKPC-2 genotype belonged to ST-10,ST-101,ST-131,ST-405,ST-410,ST-1193,and ST-2562,respectively.Homologous clustering analysis showed that the type of the 7 E.coli strains exhibited high diversity.The range of joint efficiency was(1.59±0.20)× 10-4 to(4.01±1.31)× 10-4.The highest conjugation efficiency was observed in the donor bacteria treated with 1/8 of MIC of antibiotics for 9 hours,and the conjugation efficiency most significantly increased compared to the group without antibiotic treat-ment.Three antibiotics with different mechanisms of action could all improve conjugation efficiency,among which ampicillin exhibited the most significant improvement.Conclusion In this study,the genotype of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)was mainly blaKPC-2 with a main mode of horizontal transmission.Antibiotics with sub-inhibitory concentrations could promote the conjugation transfer of the resistant plasmid.There may be significant differences in the effects of antibiotics with different mechanisms of action and different antibiotic stress conditions on the conjugation efficiency.
