Objective To explore the characteristics of military training injuries in high-altitude troops and determine the possible impact of daily diet on these training injuries in order to provide theoretical reference for scientific training and medical service support for high-altitude troops.Methods A cross-sectional scheme was adopted in this study.A self-designed Military Training Injury Questionnaire for Plateau Troops was used to survey the officers and soldiers from resident high-altitude troops in July 2024 for their training injuries,daily diet,and other situations.The obtained data were statistically analyzed.Results Among the 3 655 participants,the incidence of military training injuries was 17.87%.The subject with highest incidence was physical training(45.94%),the most common season was winter(31.39%).The most common sites of injury were waist(28.48%),knees(22.21%),and ankles(18.07%),and the most common types were sprains(28.48%),chronic fatigue injuries(18.38%)and strains(12.25%).The intake amounts of coarse grains and potatoes,bean products,aquatic products and nuts were relatively low in the daily diet of high-altitude troops.Multivariate logistic regression analysis found intake of fruit(OR=0.625,95%CI:0.508～0.768,P<0.001)and of nut(OR=0.759,95%CI:0.654～0.879,P<0.001)were correlated with the occurrence of training injury.Conclusion The occurrence pattern of military training injuries in high-altitude troops in this survey is basically consistent with that of previous reports,but the incidence rate is slightly decreased.Regular consumption of fruit and nut may be protective factors for the occurrence of training injuries.

Objective To investigate the effects of goal-directed fluid therapy(GDFT)based on pulse pressure variation(PPV)on postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing Da Vinci robot-assisted radical resection of gynecological malignancies.Methods A total of 60 patients who underwent robot-assisted radical resection of gynecological malignancies were randomly divided into control group and observation group using a random number table method,with 30 patients in each group.The control group received conventional fluid replacement regimen,while the observation group received GDFT regimen based on PPV.The surgical conditions,hemodynamic indices[heart rate(HR),mean arterial pressure(MAP),PPV],cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2),gastrointesti-nal function,renal function,cognitive function[Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)score],and postoperative conditions of the two groups were compared.Results The amount of crystalloid fluid and urine output in the observation group were less than those in the control group,while the amount of colloid fluid was more than that in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Five minutes after anesthesia induction,the levels of MAP,HR and rSO2 in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Five minutes after anesthesia induction,1 hour after the Trendelenburg position,and imme-diately after the end of surgery,the PPV levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).After surgery,the levels of lactic acid and urea nitrogen in both groupswere higher than those before surgery,but those in the observa-tion group were lower than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).After surgery,the creatinine levels in both groups were lower than those before surgery,but those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,with statistically signifi-cant differences(P＜0.05).The time to first flatus in the observation group was earlier than that in the control group,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).On days 3,7 and 30 after surgery,the MMSE scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The drainage tube indwelling time and hospital stay in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion GDFT based on PPV can stabilize the hemodynamic status and rSO2 in patients undergoing Da Vinci robot-assisted radical resection of gynecological malignancies and reduce postoperative cognitive impairment.

Objective To investigate the differences in physical fitness and physiological indexes of male soldiers stationed at different altitudes and to analyze the determinants of physical fitness of these soldiers.Methods A total of 13 648 male soldiers at different altitudes were included,whose results of annual military physical assessment and physiological indexes in 2023 were collected and comparatively analyzed.Results The 3000-meter running performance,30-meter × 2 serpentine running performance and resting blood oxygen saturation of high-altitude soldiers gradually declined with the increase of altitudes.The pull-up performance dropped significantly when the altitude＞2000 m.Soldiers ≥30 years old demonstrated a marked decline in physical fitness across different training programs.Moderate altitude acclimatization was conduciveto the recovery of physical fitness of soldiers,while exposure to high-altitude environment ≥5 years led to overall deterioration.Conclusion The high-altitude environment significantly impacts the aerobic endurance,speed,agility,and strength of soldiers.Altitude ≥4000 m,age ≥30 years,and prolonged exposure ≥5 years may contribute to the decline in physical fitness of soldiers.

Objective: To investigate the expression of ribosomal protein L26 ( RPL26) in gastric cancer cells (GC) and its effect on cell apoptosis and proliferation . Methods: The expression of RPL26 in GES-1 and GC cell lines was detected by Western blot. GC cell line HGC-27 was used to construct RPL26 overexpression cell line , and GC cell lines HGC-27 and AGS cells were used to construct RPL26 knockdown cell line . The overexpression and knockdown efficiency of RPL26 were detected by Western blot. Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) , colony formation assay and Transwell assay were used to detect the effects of the overexpression and knockdown of RPL26 on the pro- liferation and migration of GC cells . Western blot was used to detect the expression of Phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K) / protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway related factors PI3K , AKT , phosphorylated phosphatidylinosi- tol-3-kinase (p-PI3K) , phosphorylated protein kinase B ( p-AKT) and downstream factors B-Cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2) , Bcl-2 associated X protein (Bax) and Cyclin A , G1 /S-specific Cyclin D1(Cyclin D1) , Cyclin-depend- ent kinases (CDK)4 and CDK2 in overexpression and knockdown of RPL26 stably transfected cell lines . Results: Compared with GES-1 , RPL26 was highly expressed in HGC-27 cells ( tHGC-27 = 4. 97 ; P < 0. 01) and elevated in AGS , but the difference was not statistically significant. In HGC-27 and AGS cells , CCK-8 and colony formation assays showed that the proliferation ability of cells decreased after the knockdown of RPL26. Transwell assay showed that the migration ability of cells decreased after the knockdown of RPL26. Western blot showed that Bcl-2 expression was decreased in HGC-27 , AGS cells after the knockdown of RPL26 ( tHGC-27 = 11 . 50 , tAGS = 4. 77 ; P < 0. 001 , P < 0. 01) , and Bax expression increased ( tHGC-27 = 9. 63 , tAGS = 4. 05 ; P < 0. 001 , P < 0. 05) . In HGC-27 cells , the ratios of p-PI3K/PI3K and p-AKT/AKT significantly decreased after the knockdown of RPL26 ( tp-PI3K/PI3K = 3 . 86 , tp-AKT/AKT = 8. 29 ; P < 0. 05 , P < 0. 01) . Cyclin A , Cyclin D1 , CDK4 , CDK2 protein expressions de- creased ( t = 9. 61 , 5 . 10 , 11 . 64 , 7. 81 ; P < 0. 01 or P < 0. 001) , while the overexpression of RPL26 in HGC-27 cells showed the opposite trend . Conclusion The knockdown of RPL26 may arrest the cell cycle in G1 /S phase by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway , thereby inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis .

Objective To discuss the application of the"rotating guidewire and correcting the filter recovery hook direction technique"("rotation-correction loop technique"for short),a technique invented by the authors in clinical practice,in the retrieval of complex inferior vena cava filter(IVCF),and to discuss its technical skills and advantages.Methods The clinical data of 417 patients carrying an IVCF,who were admitted to the Department of Vascular Surgery of Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University of China to retrieve IVCF between January 2022 and December 2022,were retrospectively analyzed.Taking the time spent on the retrieval of IVCF and the intraoperative radiation dose as the evaluation indicators,the advantages and disadvantages of the standard filter retrieval technique,the"rotation-correction loop technique"and the other loop-assisted techniques were compared.Results Both the intraoperative radiation dose and the time spent on the retrieval of IVCF using"rotation-correction loop technique"were remarkably lower than those of other loop-assisted techniques(P＜0.000 1).Conclusion For the retrieval of complex IVCF,especially for the IVCF which is heavily tilted and/or its recovered hook is attached to the vascular wall,the use of"rotation-correction loop technique"can shorten the time spent on the the retrieval of IVCF and reduce the intraoperative radiation dose.This technique carries high safety and practicability,the device is simple and it can be manipulated by single physician,which is conducive to clinical application and promotion.(J Intervent Radiol,2024,33:289-294)

Objective:To explore the effects of Ginkgo biloba on regulating NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1)-antioxidant response element (ARE) signaling pathway in liver injury induced by coal-burning-borne endemic arsenic poisoning in rats.Methods:Group design method was adopted, according to body weight (80-100 g), a total of 30 Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups (6 rats in each group, half males and half females) by random number table method. The normal control group was fed with normal diet ad libitum for 4.5 months; the Ginkgo biloba control group was fed with Ginkgo biloba (25 mg/kg, 6 d/week) for 1.5 months after normal feeding for 3 months; the drinking water arsenic poisoning group and the arsenic contaminated grain group were fed respectively with 100 mg/L arsenic trioxide (As 2O 3) solution and 100 mg/kg arsenic-containing feed for 3 months, and then fed with normal diet for 1.5 months; the Ginkgo biloba treatment group was fed with 100 mg/kg arsenic-containing feed for 3 months, and then was given Ginkgo biloba (25 mg/kg, 6 d/week) for 1.5 months. After sacrificing the animals, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), the activity of copper zinc superoxide dismutase (SOD1) and the activity of glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in serum were detected by thiobarbituric acid colorimetry, xanthine oxidase method and dimercaptodinitrobenzoic acid reduction method, respectively. The mRNA and protein expressions of indicator genes of Nrf2-Keap1-ARE signaling pathway in liver tissues were detected by quantitative real-time PCR, immunohistochemistry and Western blotting. Correlation between the indexes was analyzed by Pearson. Results:In drinking water arsenic poisoning group, arsenic contaminated grain group and Ginkgo biloba treatment group, the contents of MDA in serum were (3.54±0.51), (3.83±0.87) and (2.93±0.84) μmol/L, respectively, which were higher than that in normal control group [(1.85±0.36) μmol/L, P < 0.05]; and SOD1 activities [(68.21±4.37), (64.53±9.96), (73.09±5.43) U/ml] and GPx activities [(486.41±40.45), (458.24±42.25), (539.79±79.43) U/L] in serum were lower than those in normal control group [(81.47±5.73) U/ml, (747.86±80.33) U/L, P < 0.05]. Compared with the arsenic contaminated grain group, the content of MDA in serum in Ginkgo biloba treatment group was decreased, the activities of SOD1 and GPx in serum were increased ( P < 0.05). Compared with normal control group, the mRNA expressions of SOD1 and GPx1 in the liver tissues in drinking water arsenic poisoning group, arsenic contaminated grain group and Ginkgo biloba treatment group were significantly higher ( P < 0.05). Compared with arsenic contaminated grain group, the mRNA expressions of SOD1 and GPx1 in the liver tissue in Ginkgo biloba treatment group were increased ( P < 0.05). Compared with the normal control group, the protein expression of SOD1 in liver tissue in arsenic contaminated grain group was decreased ( P < 0.05), the protein expressions of GPx1 were decreased in the liver tissues in drinking water arsenic poisoning group, arsenic contaminated grain group and Ginkgo biloba treatment group ( P < 0.05). Compared with the arsenic contaminated grain group, the protein expressions of SOD1 and GPx1 were increased in the liver tissue in Ginkgo biloba treatment group ( P < 0.05). Compared with the normal control group and arsenic contaminated grain group, the protein expression of Keap1 was decreased in the liver tissue in Ginkgo biloba treatment group ( P < 0.05). Compared with the normal control group, the protein expressions of Nrf2 and phosphorylation of Nrf2 (pNrf2) were increased in the cytoplasm in drinking water arsenic poisoning group, arsenic contaminated grain group and Ginkgo biloba treatment group ( P < 0.05). Compared with the arsenic contaminated grain group, the protein expression of pNrf2 was decreased in the cytoplasm in Ginkgo biloba treatment group ( P < 0.05). The protein expressions of Nrf2 and pNrf2 in the nucleus in drinking water arsenic poisoning group, arsenic contaminated grain group and Ginkgo biloba treatment group were also higher than those in normal control group ( P < 0.05). Compared with the arsenic contaminated grain group, the protein expressions of Nrf2 and pNrf2 were increased in the nucleus in Ginkgo biloba treatment group ( P < 0.05). The results of correlation analysis revealed that the protein expressions of Nrf2 and pNrf2 in the nucleus were negatively correlated with Keap1 protein expression ( r=-0.523,-0.401, P < 0.05), and positively correlated with the mRNA expressions of SOD1 and GPx1 ( r=0.658, 0.530, 0.555, 0.603, P < 0.05). In addition, the protein expressions of SOD1 and GPx1 were positively correlated with their enzyme activities ( r=0.472, 0.629, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Arsenic could induce oxidative stress and liver injury. Ginkgo biloba could reduce the protein expression of Keap1, and promote nuclear translocation of Nrf2, which might induce the up-regulation of mRNA expressions of SOD1 and GPx1, and partially reverse the posttranscriptional regulation of arsenic on SOD1 and GPx1, and then increase their protein expressions and enzyme activities, thereby improve arsenic induced oxidative stress and liver injury.

Objective:To investigate the associations of brain white matter integrity deficits, and to explore the association of fractional anisotropy (FA) abnormality with clinical symptoms and cognitive impairments, as well as the prediction effect of the FA alterations on symptoms and cognitive function outcomes in the acute stage of schizophrenia from the whole brain level based on magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging (DTI).Methods:From November 2019 to December 2020, thirty-eight patients with first-episode schizophrenia and 38 healthy controls were recruited in this study. Wisconsin card classification test (WCST), digit span test (DST forward/backward), verbal fluency test, Stroop (A/B/C), trail making test (TMT-A/B), as well as positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) were utilized to evaluate patients' cognitive function and clinical symptoms both before and after 8 weeks of risperidone monotherapy. T1-weighted images and DTI data of all the subjects were collected . FSL and SPM8 were used to preprocess MRI data and compare the between-group differences of FA. Support vector machine (SVM) analysis was used to evaluate the accuracy of abnormal FA values in differentiating schizophrenic patients from healthy controls. Finally, stepwise multiple regression analysis or generalized linear models were used to explore the associations between white matter integrity and symptoms or cognition.Results:Before treatment, patients' FA values of right medial temporal lobe (mTL), cuneus, anterior cingulate gyrus (ACG) and inferior parietal lobe (IPL) were significantly lower than those in healthy controls ( P<0.01, GRF corrected), and patients' FA values of bilateral middle cingulate gyrus (mCG) were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.01, GRF corrected). SVM analysis showed that four combinations could distinguish the patients from the control with the most accurate rate of 89.47%. Patients' baseline decreased FA values in the right IPL were positively associated with their increased total response time in WCST ( β=0.489, P=0.003, FDR corrected), correct response time in WCST ( β=0.450, P=0.008, FDR corrected), error response time in WCST ( β=0.435, P=0.008, FDR corrected), TMT-B ( β=0.296, P=0.042, FDR corrected), Stroop-C ( β=0.345, P=0.035, FDR corrected), and PANSS-P ( β=0.321, P=0.042, FDR corrected). Reduced FA values in the right mTL in patient group were significantly negatively related to the total time spent on the TMT-A ( β=-0.425, P=0.009, FDR corrected) and TMT-B ( β=-0.325, P=0.026 with FDR correction). Increased FA values in right mCG in patient group demonstrated positive associations with total response time in the WCST ( β=0.585, P=0.002, FDR corrected), correct response time in WCST ( β=0.524, P=0.003, FDR corrected), error response time in WCST ( β=0.536, P=0.003, FDR corrected) and total time consuming in TMT-B ( β=0.484, P=0.004, FDR corrected), as well as negative associations with DST-forward ( β=-0.319, P=0.042, FDR corrected). After treatment, patients' percentage changes in total response time of WCST ( β=0.715, P<0.001, FDR corrected), correct response time of WCST ( β=0.752, P<0.001, FDR corrected), as well as total time-consuming of TMT-A ( β=1.333, P=0.001, FDR corrected) showed positive correlations with baseline increased FA values in the left mCG. Percentage alteration of Stroop-B was negatively correlated with baseline FA values in the right cuneus ( β=-0.745, P=0.015, FDR corrected). Conclusions:The combination of abnormal FA values in multiple brain regions may be potential biomarkers to distinguish schizophrenic patients from healthy volunteers. There was regional dependence in the associations of the impairment of white matter integrity with the cognitive impairment, the severity of psychopathological symptoms as well as the prognosis of patients in the acute stage.

Objective To observe the expression of Protein Kinase C Delta (PKCδ) and NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) in the liver of arsenic poisoning rats induced by coal-burning,and explore their roles.Methods According to body weight (80-100 g),thirty Wistar rats (half male half female) were divided into five groups of 6 each using random number table method,the control group,and drinking arsenic,low,medium and high arsenic contaminated grain groups.The control group was fed normally for 3 months;drinking arsenic,low,medium and high arsenic contaminated grain groups were fed respectively with 100 mg/L As2O3 solution and different concentrations of arsenic-containing feed (25,50 and 100 mg/kg).At the end of the experiment period,non-anticoagulant whole blood 2 ml from peripheral vein was collected.Malondialdehyde (MDA) contents,activities of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were detected.After sacrificing the animals,the liver was separated and then diacylglycerol (DAG) contents,mRNA and protein expressions of PKCδ and Nrf2 were determined,and the correlation was analyzed by Pearson.Results There were significant differences in serum MDA contents,SOD1 and GPx activities among groups (F =26.441,3.327,120.645,P ＜ 0.05).The serum MDA contents in arsenic-exposed groups were higher than that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).However,activities of SOD1 and GPx1 were lower than those in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in liver DAG contents,Nrf2 mRNA expression levels among groups (F =8.237,8.656,P ＜ 0.05).DAG contents in the liver tissues of the drinking arsenic,low,medium and high arsenic contaminated grain groups were respectively (2.67 ± 0.25),(2.36 ± 0.19),(2.54 ± 0.22) and (2.69 ± 0.32) μg/L,which were significantly higher than that in the control group [(2.05 ± 0.24) μg/L,P ＜ 0.05].The expression levels of Nrf2 mRNA in liver tissue were respectively 1.16 ± 0.09,1.09 ± 1.20,1.14 ± 0.15 and 1.27 ± 0.16,which were higher than that in the control group (0.94 ± 0.08,P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in the expression of pPKCδ protein in the cell membrane and cytoplasm of liver tissue between groups (F =15.925,6.699,P ＜ 0.05).The protein expression levels of pPKCδ in the cell membrane of liver tissue were 0.49 ± 0.06,0.33 ± 0.05,0.37 ± 0.06 and 0.50 ± 0.08,respectively,which were significantly higher than that in the control group (0.28 ± 0.04,P ＜ 0.05).The protein expression levels of pPKCδ in the cytoplasm were 0.38 ± 0.06,0.31 ± 0.05,0.35 ± 0.05 and 0.36 ± 0.05,respectively,which were higher than that in the control group (0.24 ± 0.05,P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in the expression of Nrf2 and pNrf2 in cytoplasm and nucleus of liver tissues among groups (F =9.024,9.709,10.396,25.532,P ＜ 0.05).The protein expression levels of Nrf2 in the cytoplasm were respectively 0.76 ± 0.09,0.58 ± 0.07,0.64 ± 0.09 and 0.73 ± 0.07,which were higher than that of the control group (0.52 ± 0.08,P ＜ 0.05),except the low arsenic contaminated grain group.The protein expression levels of pNrf2 in the cytoplasm were respectively 0.50 ± 0.07,0.43 ± 0.06,0.48 ± 0.06 and 0.54 ± 0.07,which were higher than that in the control group (0.32 ± 0.06,P ＜ 0.05).The expression levels of Nrf2 protein in the nucleus were respectively 0.44 ± 0.07,0.41 ± 0.06,0.47 ± 0.06 and 0.54 ± 0.09,which were higher than that in the control group (0.30 ± 0.05,P ＜ 0.05).The protein expression levels of pNrf2 in the nucleus were respectively 0.35 ± 0.04,0.29 ± 0.04,0.41 ± 0.05 and 0.43 ± 0.06,which were higher than that in the control group (0.20 ± 0.03,P ＜ 0.05).The correlation analysis showed that DAG contents and the protein expression of pPKCδ in the cell membrane and the cytoplasm were positively correlated (r =0.663,0.604,P ＜ 0.05).Furthermore,the protein expression of pPKCδ in the cell membrane and pNrf2 in the cytoplasm and nucleus were also positively correlated (r =0.642,0.670,P＜ 0.05).Conclusions Arsenic could induce oxidative stress liver injury,and upregulate the mRNA and protein expression of Nrf2.Moreover,arsenic could also increase the protein expression of pPKCδ and DAG content,and then promote pPKCδ membrane transposition,phosphorylate Nrf2,and induce its nuclear transposition,which could regulate oxidative stress reaction.

Objective The bispectral index (BIS) was introduced into the sedation strategy of critical patients in intensive care unit (ICU) and replaced the Richmond agitation sedation scale (RASS).The ventilation time,ICU length of stay,and 90-day mortality were compared between the two groups of patients who performed early goal-directed sedation (EGDS) or standard traditional directed sedation (STDS) strategies.Methods A prospective controlled study of severe patients with mechanical ventilation ≥48 h in ICU (20 cases from April 2016 to May 2017,46 cases from June 2017 to April 2018) were randomly divided into EGDS or STDS group.There were no significant differences in age,gender,and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation score Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score between the two groups in the two periods.The correlation between RASS and BIS was analyzed in the first period.The BIS of the patients in a RASS range of (-2-1) was 73.65 ± 7.87 in the EGDS group,and that of RASS range of (-3--1) was 64.14 ± 7.25 in the STDS group.The above BIS was applied to the two sedation strategies in the second period respectively.The ventilation time,ICU length of stay,and 90-day mortality were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the ventilation time between the two groups [(164.12 ± 137.96) h and (155.33 ±64.86)h,P =0.08].ICU length of stay of the EGDS group was longer than that of the STDS group.The 90-day mortality of the EGDS group was higher than that of the STDS group.Conclusions Correlations between RASS and BIS were found in this study,and BIS can be used for sedation assessment in ICU patients.Large sample study is still needed to compare EGDS and STDS with BIS.
