Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and surgical experience of modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair in the treatment of type Ⅰ Chiari malformation complicated with syringomyelia.Methods The clinical data of 47 patients with Chiari type Ⅰ malformation complicated with syringomyelia treated by modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.The changes of posterior cranial fossa volume,cerebellar tonsil and syringomyelia were evaluated by MRI after operation.The scores of Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)were used to evaluate the improvement of neurological function,and the complications were recorded.Results All the 47 patients successfully completed modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair.The main postoperative complications were unilateral limb numbness,incision pain,fever,subcutaneous effusion and so on,all of which were cured after symptomatic treatment.During the follow-up period,the clinical symptoms and neurological function of the patients were improved in varying degrees,and there was no deterioration of neurological function or death cases.The JOA score of the patients 3 months after operation was(15.83±1.31),which was higher than that of(14.66±2.06)before operation,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).MRI showed the extent of syringomyelia was reduced or disap-peared 6 after surgery in all 47 patients.Conclusion Modified posterior fossa decompression combined with dural expansion repair for the treatment of type Ⅰ Chiari malformation complicated with syringomyelia can not only ensure the decompression effect,but also increase the support of the contents of the posterior fossa,effectively prevent postoperative local adhesions,and restore the normal physiological circulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the cisterna magnum,which is an effective treatment method for type Ⅰ Chiari malformation complicated with syringomyelia.

A quartz crystal microbalance(QCM)-systematic evolution of ligands by the exponential en-richment(SELEX)technique was developed to screen out aptamers with high affinity for arsenic(Ⅲ).A random single strand DNA library was designed and fixed on the mercaptoethylamine-modified crystal plate with arsenic(Ⅲ)as the target,and the free aptamer was captured in the solution,and the QCM-SELEX screening method was constructed.After 6 rounds of screening,the secondary library was se-quenced with high throughput method,and the 6S1 dissociation coefficient Kd value was 0.36 μmol/L based on QCM resonance frequency.Using 6S1 as a probe,the QCM biosensor was constructed for the detection of arsenic(Ⅲ).The sensor has a good linear relationship in the range of 0.01 μmol/L～0.2μmol/L,and the detection limit of arsenic(Ⅲ)is 5.2 nmol/L(3σ),indicatinggood selectivity.

Objective:To analyze the distribution characteristics of prognostic factors affecting recurrence in peripheral T-cell lymphoma(PTCL)patients with different levels of histone deacetylase(HDAC)based on latent class analysis.Methods:112 PTCL patients who were treated in our hospital from September 2012 to September 2019 were selected and divided into recurrence group and non-recurrence group.The clinical data of the two groups of patients were compared.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for recurrence.Latent class analysis was used to compare the distribution characteristics of prognostic factors affecting recurrence between the high-risk group and the low-risk group.Results:There were 87 patients(77.68％)in recurrence group and 25 patients(22.32％)in non-recurrence group.The result of multivariate logistic regression showed that ECOG score ≥2,Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ,IPI score＞2,bone marrow involvement,elevated serum β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),short-term efficacy not reaching complete remission(CR)or partial remission(PR),and the high expression of HDAC were all independent risk factors for recurrence in patients with PTCL(P＜0.05).The recurrence rate of patients with high HDAC levels was significantly higher than that of patiens with low HDAC levels(P＜0.05).The results of cluster analysis showed that the risk of recurrence was obviously clustered,and the patients could be divided into high recurrence risk group(HDAC＞5 points)and low recurrence risk group(HDAC≤5 points).The results of latent class analysis showed that patients with multiple risk factors account for a higher proportion in the high recurrence risk group,compared with the low recurrence risk group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:There are differences in recurrence rates among PTCL patients with different HDAC levels and in distribution characteristics of risk factors between high recurrence risk and low recurrence risk groups.

Objective:To screen interleukin(IL)-1β secretion-related membrane transporters by macrophage experiment in vitro and conventional knockout mice.Methods:THP-1 cell line was differentiated to obtain human THP-1-derived macrophages,and the primary macrophages were obtained from human peripheral blood.FVB wild-type mice with the same sex and age were used as the controls of MRP1 knockout mice.The macrophages in abdominal cavity and bone marrow of mice were cultivated.The cells were treated with ABCC1/MRP1,ABCG2/BCRP,ABCB1/P-gp,OATP1B1,and MATE transporter inhibitors,then stimulated by lipopolysaccharide and adenosine triphosphate.The secretion level of IL-iβ was detected by ELISA,Western blot,and immunofluorescence.Results:After inhibiting ABCC1/MRP1 transporter,the secretion of IL-1β decreased significantly,while inhibition of the other 4 transporters had no effect.In animal experiment,the level of IL-1 β secreted by macrophages in bone marrow of MRP1 knockout mice was significantly lower than control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:ABCC1/MRP1 transporter is a newly discovered IL-1β secretion pathway,which is expected to become a new target for solving clinical problems such as cytokine release syndrome.
