Objective To study the effects of antibiotics and high-fat diet on energy metabolism and the browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) and brown adipose tissue (BAT) in mice, so as to provide new ideas for the possible mechanism of adipose tissue in the prevention and treatment of obesity. Methods A total of 80 10-week-old C57BL/6 male mice were fed with normal diet in the early stage, and the antibiotic gavage group (AG) and antibiotic high-fat group (AFG) were given mixed antibiotics by gavage. The blank group (BG) and the high-fat diet group (FG) were given normal saline intragastric solution for 2 weeks, and after the gavage operation, the FG group and the AFG group were given high-fat diet for obesity modeling, and the BG group and AG group continued to be fed with normal diet for 8 weeks (N=20). After the experiment, each group was injected with β3-adrenergic receptor agonists for 5 days, and the high-fat/ordinary diet remained unchanged. At the end of the experiment, basal metabolic rate (BMR), fasting blood glucose (FBG) and rectal temperature were measured, and feces, blood, subcutaneous white fat, epididymis and brown adipose tissue in the scapular area of mice were collected. The automatic biochemical analyzer was used to determine the blood biochemical indexes; reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to measure the expression of genes related to browning of WAT and BAT adipose tissue, respectively. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to determine the expression of WAT mitochondrial DNA (mt DNA). Results From the 4th week to the end of the experiment, the weight of the AFG group was significantly higher than that of the AG group and significantly lower than that of the FG group (P<0.05). The body weight, organ coefficient, serum TC level, rectal temperature and WAT cell diameter in the AFG group were significantly higher than those in the AG group. The serum levels of FBG, TC and LDL in the AFG group were significantly lower than those in the FG group (P<0.05). The overall BMR(mlO2/h) FG group was significantly higher than that of BG group, and the AFG group was significantly higher than that of AG. BMR per unit body weight (mlO2/h/g) AFG was significantly higher than that of FG group (P<0.05). The expressions of RIP140, PPAR-γ and UCP-1 in BAT in the AFG group were significantly higher than those in the FG group, and the mt DNA copy number of WAT in the AFG group was significantly higher than that in the FG group (P<0.05). Conclusion Antibiotic intervention can up-regulate the expression of brown fat-related genes in high-fat diet mice, increase brown fat activity, increase the relative mitochondrial number of white fat, increase the level of browning of white fat, promote thermogenesis, increase the BMR per unit body weight of adult obese mice, and then improve the overall energy metabolism of the body, and slow down the weight gain induced by high-fat diet to a certain extent.

As the first marketed epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, gefitinib plays an important role in the targeted therapy of malignant tumors such as non-small cell lung cancer, but this drug can cause serious adverse effects such as liver toxicity. If the reaction occurs, the drug must be stopped for liver protection treatment, which greatly affects the treatment process of cancer. However, the mechanism of gefitinib-induced hepatotoxicity is still unclear, and clinical treatment measures are very limited. This article aims to review the molecular mechanism of gefitinib-induced hepatotoxicity and the commonly used clinical therapeutic drugs, so as to provide scientific basis for clinical prevention and rational drug use.

Objective To analyze medication compliance and intervention measures of patients with schizophrenia inWeifang City, and to provide theoretical basis for improving medication compliance of discharged patients with schizophrenia. Methods Atotal of 379 schizophrenic patients discharged from our hospital from January 2020 to December 2020 were selected . According to the medication compliance Evaluation Scale (MARS) score one year after discharge, the patients were divided into good medication compliance group (n=284) and poor medication compliance group (n=95).The SDS scores, SAS scores, RBANS scores and MMAS scores were compared between the two groups. Pearson single factor analysis scores were used to analyze the correlation between medication compliance and SDS scores, SAS scores, RBANS scores and MMAS scores. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the independent factors affecting medication compliance of schizophrenia patients. Results SDS score, SAS score and MMAS score of poor compliance group were significantly higher than those of good compliance group (P<0.05). The scores of immediate memory and delayed memory in good compliance group were significantly higher than those in poor compliance group (P<0.05). For each item, the scores of story repetition, vocabulary learning, number span, vocabulary recognition, vocabulary recall and graph recall in the good compliance group were significantly higher than those in the poor compliance group (P<0.05). According to Pearson correlation analysis, SDS score, SAS score, story repetition score, vocabulary recall score, RBANS total score were correlated with MARS score (P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that SDS score, SAS score, vocabulary recall and RBANS were independent factors affecting medication compliance in schizophrenia patients (P<0.05). Conclusions The medication compliance of discharged schizophrenic patients in Weifang city is correlated with negative emotion. It is necessary to improve the negative emotion of patients, improve the cognitive function of patients and improve the medication compliance of discharged schizophrenic patients.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment results of cardiac tumors. Methods Clinical data of 28 patients with cardiac tumors, who underwent cardiac surgery in our hospital from 2013 to 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 12 males and 16 females. The median age was 11.5 years, ranging 1 month to 69 years; and the median weight was 39.0 (4.8-100.0) kg. All patients underwent tumor resection under cardio-pulmonary bypass with general anesthesia, and postoperative pathological analysis was performed. Results There were 27 patients with primary cardiac tumors and 1 patient with secondary cardiac tumor. Among the primary cardiac tumors, there were 16 myxomas, 5 rhabdomyomas, 3 inflammatory myofibroblastomas, 2 fibroids and 2 hemangiomas. The secondary cardiac tumor was chondrosarcoma. A total of 28 cardiac tumors occurred in 29 locations, including 14 in the left atrium, 3 in the right atrium, 1 in the left ventricle, 7 in the right ventricle, 2 in the mitral and 2 in the tricuspid. Cerebral embolism occurred in 6 patients, peripheral vascular embolism in 3 patients, and syncope in 3 patients. There was no death during the perioperative period and in the long term follow-up. Complete resection was performed in 25 patients and partial resection was performed in 3 patients. During the follow-up, 2 patients with myxoma received reoperation for recurrence. Among the 3 patients with partial resection, residual tumor tissue disappeared in 2 patients, and in the other patient, there was no change in the size of the residual tumor tissue during the follow-up compared to that at discharge. Conclusion Cardiac surgery is an effective method for patients with primary benign cardiac tumors. However, whether the cardiac tumor tissue can be completely removed depends on the anatomical location of the tumor during the operation. If there are systemic embolism events and syncope, the possibility of cardiac tumors should be considered.

Objective: To investigate the expression of metastasis-associated protein 2 (MTA2) in human bladder cancer tissues and its effect on the malignant biological behaviors of bladder cancer T24 cells, as well as to explore the effect of MTA2 on the progression of bladder cancer. Methods: Sixty-two cases of human bladder cancer tissues and 28 cases of normal bladder tissues (from patients with cystitis, and pathologically confirmed as normal tissue) were collected at People’s Hospital of Hebei Province during December 2012 and December 2014. The expression of MTA2 in bladder cancer tissues and normal bladder tissues was detected by immunohistochemical staining, and the correlation between MTA2 expression and clinicopathological characteristics of patients was also analyzed. The bladder cancer T24 cell line stably expressing MTA2 was constructed. The effects of MTA2 on the proliferation, colony formation, migration and invasion of bladder cancer T24 cells were detected by MTS, clone formation, scratch healing and Transwell assay, respectively. Results: Immunohistochemical staining showed that MTA2 expression was significantly up-regulated in bladder cancer tissues as compared with normal bladder tissues (P<0.01). The high expression of MTA2 in bladder cancer tissues was not related to gender, age and tumor volume (P>0.05), but was associated with higher TNM stage, histological grade, and lymphatic infiltration and metastasis (all P<0.05). After over-expression of MTA2 in bladder cancer T24 cell line, the proliferation activity of the cells was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the colony formation, scratch healing, migration and invasion ability were significantly increased (all P<0.01). Conclusions: MTA2 is up-regulated in human bladder cancer tissues and can promote the proliferation, tumor formation, migration and invasion of T24 cells.

Objective To translate the Water Orientation Test of Alyn 2 (WOTA2) into Chinese, and to study its reliability and validity for patients with spinal cord injury. Methods After authorizing, the English version WOTA2 scale and its training package were translated into Chinese. From January to September, 2018, 137 patients with spinal cord injury were evaluated with the Chinese version WOTA2 by two evaluators independently, and evaluated again three days later by one of the evaluators. The Cronbach39;s α, Spearman-Brown coefficient, intra-group correlation coefficient (ICC) and Kappa coefficient were calculated to evaluate the reliability. Content Validity Index (CVI) of items (I-CVI) and scale (S-CVI) were used to evaluate the content validity, and factors analysis was used to evaluate the structure validity. Results The Cronbach39;s α was 0.947 in all items of the scale, 0.890 in mental adjustment items and 0.954 in aquatic skills items. Pearson correlation coefficient of the half scales separated by odd and even items was 0.948, and the Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.973. The ICC of test-retest was 0.965 in total score, 0.965 in centesimal system total score, 0.847 in mental adjustment score and 0.970 in aquatic skills score. The ICC of inter-testers was 0.964 in total score, 0.965 in centesimal system total score, 0.847 in mental adjustment score and 0.970 in aquatic skills score. The Kappa coefficient was 0.528 to 0.927 in test-retest and 0.528 to 0.927 in inter-testers. The I-CVI was 0.8 to 1.0 and S-CVI was 0.63. Factors analysis extracted four factors, which met the theory, and contributed 67% of cumulative variance. Conclusion The Chinese version WOTA2 is good in reliability and validity for patients with spinal cord injury, and can be used in the clinical practice of aquatic therapeutic exercise in China.
