Objective:To investigate the effect of ribonucleotide reductase regulatory subunit M2 (RRM2) on the malignant biological behavior and aerobic glycolysis of gastric cancer cells by regulating cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 1.Methods:Human gastric cancer MKN-45 cells were divided into si-NC group (transfected with blank fragment) , CoCl 2+si-NC group (hypoxia control transfected with blank fragment) , CoCl 2+si-RRM2 group (hypoxia with RRM2 silencing) , CoCl 2+si-RRM2+pcDNA3.1 NC group (hypoxia with RRM2 silencing and blank vector) and CoCl 2+si-RRM2+pcDNA3.1 CDK1 group (hypoxia with RRM2 silencing and CDK1 overexpression) . The mRNA relative expression levels of RRM2 and CDK1 were analyzed by real time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription PCR. Co-immunoprecipitation (CoIP) was used to analyze the interaction between RRM2 and CDK1 protein. MTT assay was used to analyze the proliferation activity of cells. The cell migration distance was detected by cell scratch assay. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and glucose kit were used to detect ATP production and glucose consumption. The protein expressions of ENO1, RRM2, HK2, PKM2, GLUT1 and p-CDK1/CDK1 were detected by Western blotting. Results:Real time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription PCR results showed that the relative expression levels of CDK1 mRNA in si-NC group, CoCl 2+si-NC group and CoCl 2+si-RRM2 group were 1.01±0.15, 1.30±0.06 and 0.51±0.18, and the relative expression levels of RRM2 mRNA were 1.03±0.32, 1.59±0.28 and 0.44±0.17, respectively, and there were statistically significant differences ( F=25.52, P=0.001; F=14.47, P=0.005) . The mRNA expressions of RRM2 and CDK1 in CoCl 2+si-NC group were higher than those in si-NC group.

Objective:To explore the protocol for handgrip exercise stress echocardiography by comparing different maximal voluntary contraction(MVC)handgrip groups with bicycle exercise stress.Methods:Forty-one healthy volunteers were enrolled prospectively from June to October 2024 in Tangdu Hospital and utilized a color Doppler echocardiography system,supine cycle ergometer,and handgrip dynamometer to collect echocardiographic data at baseline,during handgrip exercises at 20%(3 min),30%(3 min),and 40%(2 min)of MVC,and spine bicycle exercise stress at peak. Parameters measured included left ventricular ejection fraction(EF),stroke volume(SV),cardiac output(CO),mitral inflow E-wave and A-wave velocities,lateral and septal mitral annular e' velocities,E/A and E/e' ratios,global longitudinal strain(GLS),left atrial reservoir strain(LAS R),conduit strain(LAS CD),and contractile strain(LAS CT). The non-invasive myocardial work indices were also assessed,including global work index(GWI),global constructive work(GCW),global wasted work(GWW),and global work efficiency(GWE). Statistical analyses were performed using repeated measures analysis of variance,with corrected paired t-test for comparisons between two exercise stress states. Results:Compared with the baseline state,heart rate,blood pressure,CO、GWI、GCW、GWW and LAS CT gradually increased,while EF、E/A、GLS、GWE、LAS R and LAS CD gradually decreased under 20%,30% and 40% of MVC states. The changes were most obvious at 40% of MVC state,which was selected for the handgrip exercise stress echocardiography protocol.Compared with the peak of bicycle exercise,at 40% of MVC,heart rate was significantly lower[(81.2 ± 9.7)bpm vs.(164.6 ± 11.3)bpm, P<0.05)],systolic blood pressure was slightly lower[(152.9 ± 13.2)mmHg vs.(165.1 ± 20.4)mmHg, P<0.05],diastolic blood pressure was higher[(96.0 ± 9.5)mmHg vs.(89.5 ± 10.9)mmHg, P<0.05],GLS was lower[(19.1 ± 1.5)% vs.(23.5 ± 1.7)%, P<0.05],GWI was similar[(2 254.2 ± 417.3)mmHg% vs.(2 227.5 ± 389.0)mmHg%, P>0.05],but GWE was higher[(95.3 ± 2.0)% vs.(93.7 ± 2.0)%, P<0.05],and LAS R was lower[(39.4 ± 4.2)% vs.(43.9 ± 4.1)%, P<0.05]. Conclusions:The 40% of MVC lasting 2 min can cause the most significant handgrip-related changes in cardiac function and can be used as the standard protocol for handgrip exercise stress echocardiography. Handgrip stress exercise can cause significant changes in cardiac systole,diastole,and work performance,showing different characteristics compared with bicycle exercise stress.

Objective:Distribution and antibiotic resistance of pathogen isolated from children with intra-abdominal infection (IAI) associated sepsis in the intensive care unit (ICU) were analyzed to provide a reference for the empirical anti-infective treatment of IAI in children.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the data of 116 children with culture-positive IAI-associated sepsis admitted to Children's Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2019 to December 2021. Clinical isolation and drug resistance analysis were conducted based on different years of onset, locations of onset, and primary diseases.Results:A total of 186 strains of pathogens causing children with IAI-associated sepsis in ICU were collected. The distribution and antibiotic resistance of pathogen were as follows: the percentages of gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria, and fungi were 53.2%, 40.9%, and 5.9%, respectively; the top four strains were Enterococcus faecium, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecalis, accounting for 57.0% of all isolates; Enterococcus faecium(19.9%) and Enterococcus faecalis (10.2%) were the dominating gram-positive bacteria; Escherichia coli (13.4%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (13.4%) were more common gram-negative bacteria; Fungi were dominated by Candida albicans (3.8%).Fifty-seven strains of gram-positive bacteria were detected in 61 children with infectious diseases, mainly Enterococcus faecium (28 strains). There were 53 gram-negative strains, mainly Klebsiella pneumoniae (21 strains). Thirty-two strains of gram-positive bacteria were detected in 40 children with digestive tract malformation, and Enterococcus faecalis (six strains) were the most common. There were 14 gram-negative strains, mainly Escherichia coli (six strains). In 13 children with malignant tumors of digestive system, nine strains of gram-positive bacteria were cultured, and Enterococcus faecium (four strains) was the most common. There were eight gram-negative strains, mainly Escherichia coli (four strains).In the 46 community-acquired IAI patients,30 gram-positive isolates were cultured,mainly including Enterococcus faecium (12 strains), Staphylococcus epidermidis (seven strains), and Viridans streptococci (six strains); Forty gram-negative isolates mainly contained Escherichia coli (16 strains), Klebsiella pneumoniae (14 strains), and Enterobacter cloacae (five strains). In the 70 hospital-associated IAI patients, 69 gram-positive isolates such as Enterococcus faecium (25 strains), Enterococcus faecalis (17 strains), Enterococcus gallinarum (eight strains), and Staphylococcus aureus (seven strains) were cultured;Tirty-six gram-negative isolates were dominated by Klebsiella pneumoniae (11 strains), Escherichia coli (nine strains), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (four strains), and Acinetobacter baumannii (four strains). The mixed infection rate of clinical pathogens was up to 46.6%, and the overall resistance rate was 43.4%, in which gram-negative bacteria had high sensitivity to piperacillin/tazobactam, cefoperazone/sulbactam, imipenem, and tigecycline.The detection rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli producing extended-spectrum β-lactamases were 36.0% and 24.6%, respectively, with 100% sensitivity to tigecycline. Gram-positive bacteria showed 100% sensitivity to vancomycin, linezolid, and tigecycline. Conclusion:Pathogen isolated from children with IAI-associated sepsis in ICU were dominated by Enterococcus faecium, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecalis,respectively. Before confirmation of pathogenic bacteria, antibacterial agents can be selected according to the infection type. It is important to note that a single broad-spectrum antibacterial agent or combination medication can be considered the initial empirical choice due to the large variety of pathogens, high rates of mixed infections, and high overall resistance.
