Objective To investigate the relationship between cyclin A2 (CCNA2) and the prognosis of colon cancer, and its possible mechanism from the perspective of immune infiltration. Methods We downloaded the transcriptome data of colon cancer patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Clinicopathological feature analysis and survival analysis were performed based on the expression levels of CCNA2. A total of 75 specimens of colon cancer and normal tissues were collected, and the expression level of CCNA2 was analyzed using immunohistochemical methods. Multivariate analysis was conducted to explore its relationship with clinicopathological features. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) was used to assess the potential molecular functions of CCNA2 in colon cancer. CIBERSORT algorithm was applied to calculate the correlation between CCNA2 and immune-cell infiltration in colon cancer. Results Database and immunohistochemical analyses indicated that CCNA2 was expressed at a significantly higher level in colon cancer tissues than normal tissues (P<0.001). The overall survival, disease-specific survival, and progression-free interval were all longer in the group with high CCNA2 expression than the group with low expression (all P<0.05). In tumor tissues, the expression level of CCNA2 decreased with increased pathological and TNM stages (P<0.05). The expression level of CCNA2 in normal tissues was consistently lower than that in colon cancer tissues across all clinical stages (all P<0.001). GSEA suggested that Wnt/β-catenin, KRAS, and other signaling pathways were enriched when CCNA2 was lowly expressed. CIBERSORT analysis revealed an increase in the infiltration of immune cells such as regulatory T cells and macrophages M0 when CCNA2 expression was low. Conclusion CCNA2 is highly expressed in colon cancer and closely associated with grade of pathology and TNM stage. It may recruit regulatory T cells through the KRAS and Wnt/β-catenin pathways, thereby reducing immune-cell infiltration and promoting colon cancer progression, leading to poor prognosis.

Objective:To discuss the clinical curative effect of the treatment of bundling bone fragment with figure-of-eight suture through double bone tunnels in the chronic bong mallet finger.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with chronic bong mallet fingers who underwent surgery in the Department of Hand and Foot Microsurgery of Nanjing Jiangbei Hospital from May 2021 to February 2023. During the procedure, made into transverse double bone tunnels on the base of the distal phalanx with 0. 8 mm Kirschner wire, bundling bone fragment with figure-of-eight suture through double bone tunnels, then fixed with Kirschner wire elastic compression. Removal of the Kirschner wire 3 weeks after the procedure, the active flexion and extension range of the joints of the affected finger and the corresponding finger were measured at the last follow-up, then the range of motion (ROM) of the distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) and total action movement (TAM) of the fingers (affected and healthy finger) were recorded. The curative effects were evaluated according to the TAM system of the American Association of Hand Surgeons, including 4 grades: excellent, good, fair, and poor. SPSS 13. 0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data, and the measurement data conforming to normal distribution were expressed as Mean ± SD. The ROM of DIPJ and TAM of the affected finger were compared with the corresponding healthy finger 6 months after surgery by a paired sample t test. P<0. 05 indicates that the difference is statistically significant. Results:A total of 30 patients (30 digits) were enrolled, including 19 males and 11 females, and the age ranged from 18 to 62 years old, with an average age of 31 years old. The time from injury to operation was 24 to 65 days (mean of 35 days) . According to Wehbe and Schneider classification, there were 8 cases of type Ⅰa, 6 cases of type Ⅰb, 7 cases of type Ⅱa, 5 cases of type Ⅱb, 2 cases of type Ⅲa and 2 cases of type Ⅲb. All incisions healed well, the intraoperative blood loss was minimal, with no infection. All 30 cases were followed up for 6 to 7 months. All fractures were well aligned and healed, malformed fingers were completely corrected, and no needle tunnel infection or needle breakage were observed. At the last follow-up, the differences of the ROM of the DIPJ [ (30. 2±3. 5) °vs. (30. 4±3. 3) °, t=2. 57, P=0. 463] and the TAM [ (235. 3± 3. 6) ° vs. (237. 7± 4. 2) °, t=1. 78, P= 0. 247 ] between the affected and healthy fingers were not statistically significant.

Objective To study the stress distributions of the surrounding bone during the dynamic implantation of micro-implants,a finite element model of self-attacking orthodontic micro-implant dynamic implantation was proposed and established.Methods A three-dimensional(3D)oral model was constructed using CBCT data.The local model around the implant and the 3D finite element model of the micro-implant were established using ABAQUS software.The micro-implant was implanted into the jaw with an axial propulsion force of 40 N at a constant speed of 0.5 r/s.Results The 3D finite element model was successfully established to simulate dynamic self-attacking orthodontic micro-implant implantation in the jaw bone.The results showed that implantation stage and thread position had significant effects on bone stress distribution and the stress states of different bones had obvious differences:the maximum stress on the cortical bone was 167 MPa,and the maximum stress at the stable stage was approximately 50 MPa.The maximum stress on cancellous bone was 30 MPa.Conclusions The implantation stage and thread position have apparent influences on stress distribution.The stress difference between the cortical and cancellous bones was evident.The stress characteristics can judge the bone type,and whether the jaw is in a suitable implantation state can be judged by the bone stress distributions around the implant.

ObjectiveTo investigate effect of Maxing Shigantang and supplemented Guominjian decoction on symptoms and levels of inflammatory cytokines in induced sputum of children with cough variant asthma (CVA). MethodA total of 118 CVA children who were treated in our hospital from January 2020 to January 2021 were enrolled and randomized into the control group and the observation group with the random number table method. Control group received routine western medicine and the observation group was treated by routine western medicine, Maxing Shigantang, and supplemented Guominjian decoction. In the one-month follow-up, the scores of cough and accompanying symptoms, levels of inflammatory cytokines [interleukin-10 (IL-10), interleukin-5 (IL-5), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), neutrophil, eosinophil] in induced sputum, pulmonary function parameters [forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC], and treatment outcomes were compared between the two groups. Moreover, the frequency of acute asthma attacks during the three-month follow-up was also compared. ResultNo cases dropped out from this study. After treatment, the scores of cough and accompanying symptoms were decreased in both groups (P<0.05) and were lower in observation group than in control group (P<0.05). After treatment, FVC, FEV1, and FEV1/FVC were raised in both groups and were higher in observation group than in control group (P<0.05). The increase in the level of IL-10 along with the decrease in levels of IL-5, TNF-α, neutrophil, and eosinophil in induced sputum was found in both groups after treatment (P<0.05), and observation group had higher level of IL-10 and lower levels of IL-5, TNF-α, neutrophil, and eosinophil than the control group (P<0.05). The effective rate was 86.44% (51/59) in observation group, which was higher than the 69.49% (41/59) in control group (χ2=4.933, P<0.05). No serious adverse reaction occurred in either group. The frequency of acute asthma attacks during the three-month follow-up was (1.09±0.18) in observation group, which was lower than the (2.83±049) in the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionRoutine western medicine combined with Maxing Shigantang and supplemented Guominjian decoction can effectively and safely alleviate the airway inflammatory responses, control the clinical symptoms, improve pulmonary function, and reduce the frequency of acute recurrence in the treatment of CVA children.
