Objective Investigating the impact of miR-15a-5p on autophagy in trophoblast cells of pre-eclamptic placenta.Methods Collect 20 cases of normal placental tissue and 20 cases of preeclamptic placental tissue from December 2020 to December 2022.Use fluorescence quantitative PCR to detect the expression of miR-15a-5p in placental tissue and trophoblast cells,and study its correlation with patient blood pressure.The HTR8-S/Vneo cells are divided into normal group(control)and hypoxia group,and the effect of hypoxia on the expression of miR-15a-5p is observed.Additionally,mimic-NC group,mimic-NC+hypoxia group,miR-15a-5p mimic group,miR-15a-5p mimic+hypoxia group,inhibitor-NC group,inhibitor-NC+hypoxia group,miR-15a-5p inhibitor group,and miR-15a-5p inhibitor+hypoxia groups are set up to observe the effect of miR-15a-5p on hypoxia-induced autophagy-related proteins LC3B and p62 protein in trophoblast cells.Western blot is used to detect the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins LC3B and p62 protein in each group;TargetScan website predicts the target genes of miR-15a-5p,and detects their expression levels in placental tissue and trophoblast cells.Results Compared with the control group,the expression levels of miR-15a-5p were significantly increased in the placentas and hypoxic trophoblasts of preeclampsia,and they were positively correlated with the blood pressure of the patients.Under hypoxic conditions,the overexpressed miR-15a-5p promoted the protein expression of LC3BII/I,while the relative expression of P62 was decreased.But after interference with miR-15a-5p,LC3BII/I expression was down-regulated and P62 expression was up-regulated.The results of quantitative PCR and Western blot showed that the expression levels of YAP1 in the preeclampsia placental tissues and hypoxic trophoblasts were significantly reduced.Conclusion The upregulation of miR-15a-5p in trophoblast cells of the placenta in individuals with preeclampsia could enhance autophagy in preeclampsia by forming a complex with YAP1.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of intense pulsed light on rosacea.Methods:From December 2022 to April 2023, the Dermatology Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM and other Chinese and English databases to collect clinical randomized controlled studies on intense pulsed light treatment of rosacea for ameta-analysis.Results:A total of 559 patients were included in 6 randomized controlled trials. The efficacy of the combination of strong pulsed light and medication in the treatment of rosacea was significantly better than that of medication alone ( Z=6.15, P<0.001). After subgroup analysis, the combination of strong pulsed light and tetracycline drugs was more effective in treating rosacea than using tetracycline drugs alone ( Z=3.17, P<0.05). The efficacy of the combination of strong pulsed light and minocycline in the treatment of rosacea was better than that of minocycline alone ( Z=2.37, P<0.05), and clinical evaluation showed the improvements of erythema, papules, and pustules. The differences in scores for itching and capillary dilation were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of intense pulsed light therapy for rosacea is definite, and its combination with topical or oral medication is superior to that of medication alone. However, the stability of the effect needs to be confirmed by more high-quality randomized controlled trials.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the characteristics of posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments and its research progress in treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fracture with cephalomedullary nail, provide valuable reference for clinical practice. METHODS: Relevant domestic and foreign literature was extensively reviewed to summarize the history, anatomical structure of posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments, and the need for reduction and fixation, the influence on the stability of cephalomedullary nail, and the remedies. RESULTS: The posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments refers to the second level fracture line of the intertrochanteric femoral fracture, involving four anatomical structures, namely, the posterior part of the greater trochanter, the intertrochanteric crest, the lesser trochanter, and the posteromedial cortex. With the wide application of three-dimensional-CT in clinical practice, the posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments were more comprehensively understood. According to whether the anterior extension of the fracture line affects the integrity of the lateral entry of the head and neck implant, the posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments can be divided into small and large ones, of which the large single banana-shaped fragment account for about 20% of the AO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) type A2 fractures. If the large fragment involving the posteromedial wall (lesser trochanter) will increase the difficulty of the medial cortical contact reduction; or involving the posterolateral wall and resulting in rupture of the entry portal (type A2.4), which will cause sagittal swing of the nail in the femoral marrow cavity, thereby affecting the stability of the nail. There is no effective technique for reduction and fixation of the banana-shaped fragment nowadays. However, the adverse effects of posterior coronal banana-shaped fragment can be compensated by improving the quality of fracture reduction and choosing high filling cephalomedullary nail. CONCLUSION The posterior coronal banana-shaped fragments can easily lead to the rupture of the entry portal of head-neck implants, cause the sagittal swing of the cephalomedulis nail, and then lead to the loss of fracture reduction and affect the treatment effect. Whether the entry portal rupture or not and its risk factors still need further clinical and basic research.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, risk stratification, thrombolytic effects and prognosis of 110 patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) treated with thrombolysis.Methods:The clinical data of 110 patients with PE admitted to Beijing University People's Hospital from May 2009 to March 2019 were retrospective analyzed. The clinical data including general information, symptoms and signs, blood pressure, artery blood gas, coaglulation, and radiography were collected. Inclusion criteria: high-risk and intermediate high-risk group. Exclusion criteria: intermediate low-risk and low-risk group. According to the prognosis and risk stratification, the patients were divided into survival group and non-survival group, high-risk group and intermediate high-risk group. The indicators above were compared between with χ 2 test, t test or nonparametric test where appropriate. Results:Of the 110 patients with PE, 49 patients were male and 61 female with an average age of 65±16 years old; and 12 patients were in the high-risk group and 98 in the intermediate high-risk group. The respiratory rate of the high-risk group was higher, and blood pressure, PO 2, SaO 2 before thrombolysis were more lower than the intermediate high-risk group ( P<0.05). One hundred and nine patients were treated with systemic recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA), 70 patients with 50 mg, and 39 patients with 100 mg. One patient, who was contraindicated to systemic thrombolysis (with active vagina bleeding), was treated with interventional local thrombolysis; another 5 patients treated with interventional local thrombolysis because the clinical symptom were not improved markedly. One hundred and two patients survived and 8 patients died, among which, 3 patients were in the high-risk group and 5 in the intermediate high-risk group. The age, heart rate, respiration rate of the non-survival group were higher than those in the survival group, and the PO 2 before thrombolysis, PCO 2 after thrombolysis were lower ( P<0.05). Bleeding complication were occurred in 22 patients: 18 patients with minor bleeding, such as bleeding gums, skin ecchymosis, and 4 patients with moderate-severe bleeding, such as cerebral hemorrhage, abdominal bleeding, gastrointestinal bleeding, and vagina bleeding. Thirteen of 70 patients in the 50 mg group and 9 of 39 patients in the 100 mg group occurred bleeding complication. The bleeding complication of the low dose group was lower than that of the standard dose group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Thrombolysis is first-line therapy to high-risk PE. Thrombolysis is safe and effective in the intermediate high-risk group with a lower incidence rate of bleeding complication.

Objective? To explore the experience of patients with mechanical ventilation in Intensive Care Uni(t ICU) during early ambulation, and explore the process of early ambulation from the perspectives of patients. Methods? Applying the interview method in qualitative research, in-depth interviews were conducted for 15 conscious patients with artificial airway for mechanical ventilation in ICU of Affiliated Hospital of Ji'ning Medical University from January of 2017 to December of 2018. Colaizzi's 7-step phenomenological data analysis method was used to analyze and sort out the data obtained and get the theme. Results? Six themes were summarized:patients worried about the high risk of early ambulation, discomfort caused by early ambulation, lack of correct understanding on the importance of early ambulation and its benefits, early termination of ambulation caused by unacceptable ambulation way, patients hope to be encouraged by medical staff, patients look forward to social support and economic assistance. Conclusions? Early ambulation is not a separate experience, but interwoven with the experience of mechanical ventilation in ICU. In the process of early ambulation, patients are eager to get more professional, safe and comprehensive care.

Objective To study the risk factors for failure of INSURE strategy in very and extremely low birth weight preterm (V/ELBW) infants.Method From January 2005 to December 2014,clinical data of 149 preterm infants (gestational age less than 32 weeks) admitted to neonatal department of Tongji Hospital who received intubation-surfactant-extubation (INSURE) strategy were collected.These infants were assigned into two groups:INSURE failure group and INSURE success group,according to whether a second dose of surfactant or mechanical ventilation was needed within 72 hours after first pulmonary surfactant treatment.The clinical characteristics and outcomes between the two groups were compared.Chi square and t tests were used to define the differences between groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for INSURE failure.Result Among the 1 149 patients,148 received INSURE treatment,and 113 cases (76.4％) were successfully treated with the INSURE strategy.The infants in the failure group were statistically lower in birth weight,gestation age,antenatal steroids utilization rate,PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 than those in the success group,while the age of mother,male/female ratio and PaCO2 were higher in the failure group.Logistic regression analysis showed that male (OR =7.440,95％ CI 1.846 ～29.984),BW ＜ 1 000 g (OR =9.180,95％ CI 1.716 ～49.105),PaCO2 ＞48 mmHg (OR =5.996,95％ CI 2.088 ～ 17.213),PaO2/FiO2 ＜205 (OR =3.010,95％ CI 1.033 ～8.774) were independent risk factors for INSURE failure.Conclusion INSURE strategy failure was associated with gender,birth weight,gestation age,antenatal steroids utilization,PaO2,PaCO2 and PaO2/FiO2 of the first blood gas after birth.BW ＜ 1 000 g,PaCO2 ＞ 48 mmHg and PaO2/FiO2 ＜ 205 of the first blood gas after birth were independent risk factors for INSURE strategy failure.

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia ( BPD) ,also called chronic lung disease ( CLD) ,is a com-mon respiratory disease of premature infants. It was first reported and named by Northway et al, carrying unique etiology,pathology and clinical features. BPD reported by Northway is referred as old or classic BPD. Manifestations and prognosis of premature infants with respiratory diseases have been improved significantly after evolutional changes by applying glucocorticoid and exogenous surfactant,as well as protective ventilator protocols after birth. Nowadays,incidents of severe BPD described by Northway are extremely low,whereas mild BPD,also called ‘new’ BPD,is much more common. Definition and nomenclature of BPD have been controversial since first being brought out in 1967. This article was focused on the definition and nomenclature and current advances in BPD treatment.

Objective To determine the dynamic changes in adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in neurons of neonatal rats suffering from hypoxic ischemic brain injury.Methods Twenty-four-hour old and seven-day old neonatal rats were used in this study.A classic primary cortical neuron oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) model and neonatal rat hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) model were employed.Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) were used to evaluate neuron viability and damage.The expression of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (P-AMPK),phosphorylated activated protein kinase (P-Akt) and Cleaved Caspase-3 in neurons and brain tissue was measured by Western blot at different time points after OGD or HIE.The Student-t test was used for statistical analysis.Results (1) Compared with the control group,LDH levels at 2,4,8 and 24 h after OGD were higher (all P＜0.05) and optical absorption levels of MTT were lower (all P＜0.05).(2) Levels of P-AMPK in the OGD group were higher than those in the control group,and showed a time-dependent increase at 30 min and 2,4,8 and 24 h (all P＜0.05).The expression levels of P-AMPK in the HIE group were higher than those in the control group (0.345 ± 0.038,0.387 ± 0.112 and 0.618 ± 0.075 at 1,3 and 7 days after HIE,and 0.132±0.032 in the control group,all P＜0.05).(3) The levels of P-Akt increased above the control levels at 30 min (0.991 ±0.134 vs 0.304±0.050),reached a maximum level at 2 h (1.183± 0.107),and then gradually declined,whereas the levels of Cleaved Caspase-3 started to increase at 30 min,and remained elevated at 24 h (all P＜0.05).Conclusion Following hypoxic ischemic brain damage,the expression of P-AMPK is significantly increased in both in vivo and in vitro studies in a time-dependent manner.
