Objective To analyze the clinical,pathological,and endoscopic features of differentiated early gastric cancer,and to study predictors to identify and screen high risk patients with early gastric cancer submucosal infiltration.Methods A total of 172 patients with differentiated early gastric cancer treated by surgical or endoscopic submucosal dissection in our hospital from January 2017 to December 2022 were included,which were divided into the mucosal layer group(144 patients)and submucosal layer group(28 patients)based on postoperative pathology.The clinical,pathological,and white-light endoscopy(WLE)and linked color imaging(LCI)features of the 2 groups were compared.The color difference between the lesion and the surrounding mucosa was evaluated by using the Commission International de L'Eclairage(CIE)L*a*b*system.Indicators with significant differences were included to multifactor logistic stepwise regression analysis(forward method)for the identification and screening of predictors.Results A history of alcohol consumption(P=0.037),a history of smoking(P=0.035),thickening of the gastric wall on enhanced CT(P=0.032),a lesion located in the upper 1/3(P＜0.001)or middle 1/3(P=0.009)part of the stomach,depressed macroscopic type(P＜0.001),marked margin elevation(P=0.003),presence of fold changes(P=0.006),color difference ≥12.3 under WLE(P=0.003)and≥18.2 under LCI(P=0.002)were associated with submucosal infiltration.Multivariate analysis showed that lesions located in the upper 2/3 portion of the stomach(OR=5.463,95％CI:2.562-11.648,P＜0.001),depressed macroscopic type(OR=5.992,95％CI:1.624-22.100,P=0.007),marked margin elevation(OR=4.338,95％CI:1.124-16.747,P=0.033),and color difference ≥18.2 under LCI(OR=4.675,95％CI:1.342-16.288,P=0.015)were independent risk factors for infiltration of submucosal layer of lesions.Conclusion Lesions with depressed macroscopic type,marked elevated margins,located in the upper 2/3 part of the stomach,and having a large color difference from the surrounding mucosa under LCI are high-risk lesions for submucosal infiltration and require more aggressive intervention.

Bluetongue virus(BTV)is classified as a category Ⅱ animal epidemic disease in China,infecting multiple species and posing significant threats to the ruminant breeding industry.There are 29 serotypes of BTV,with BTV16 being one of the major serotypes currently prevalent in Chi-na.Bluetongue virus infection mainly manifests as a latent infection,making the establishment of ELISA assays crucial for epidemiological detection.In this study;the expression of the BTV16 VP2 protein was achieved using a prokaryotic expression system,and polyclonal antibodies were pre-pared using BALB/c mice.An indirect ELISA assay using VP2 protein as the encapsulated antigen was established and optimized.Clinical samples from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region were tested and analyzed for compliance with commercial kits.The results showed that the BTV16 VP2 protein was successfully expressed and purified,and the prepared polyclonal antibody exhibi-ted good immunogenicity.The ELISA assay had good specificity,with no cross-reactivity against ruminant diseases such as AKAV,FMDV and GETV.The critical values for negativity and positivity were determined to be 0.314,and the coefficients of variation(Cv)between batches and within batches were both less than 5％,indicating good reproducibility.The ELISA assay revealed a positive rate of 92.4％for 79 samples from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region,with a compliance rate of 98.7％when compared to the commercialized kit.In conclusion,this study suc-cessfully established an indirect ELISA method for BTV16,facilitating the detection of bovine clin-ical samples.

Objective: To evaluate the accuracy of ultrasound-determined end-diastolic velocity (EDV) of central retinal artery (CRA) in diagnosing postoperative low cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) in the patients with craniocerebral trauma. Methods: Forty-nine patients of both sexes with brain injury, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 18.5-23.9 kg/m², were enrolled.The peak systolic velocity and EDV of CRA were determined using ultrasound at 1 day after operation.Mean arterial pressure and intracranial pressure were recorded, and CPP was calculated (CPP=mean arterial pressure-intracranial pressure). Results: EDV was positively correlated with CPP (r=0.746, P<0.01), and peak systolic velocity was not correlated with CPP (P>0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for EDV in diagnosing low CPP was 0.938 (95% confidence interval 0.871-1.000), and the critical value was 3.205 (sensitivity 94.4%, specificity 76.9%). Conclusion Ultrasound-determined EDV of central retinal artery can accurately diagnose postoperative low CPP in the patients with craniocerebral trauma.

Objective To investigate the role of microRNA-1 (miR-1) in cardiac fibroblasts induced by high glucose in rats. Methods The primary fibroblasts were cultured from the apical tissue of 1-3 day-old Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. The cells which were passaged to generation 3 or 4, were randomly divided into normal glucose+lentivector-vehicle group (CON+Lv-Vehicle group), normal glucose+lentivector-miR-1 group (CON+Lv-miR1 group), high glucose+lentivector-vehicle group (HG+Lv-Vehicle group), high glucose+lentivector-miR-1 group (HG+Lv-miR1 group), high glucose+Lv-Vehicle+inhibitor group (HG+Lv-Vehicle+CC group), and high glucose+lentivector-miR-1+inhibitor group (HG+Lv-miR1+CC group). The myocardial fibroblasts were cultured in the concentration of 5.5 mmol/L glucose (normal glucose) or 25.0 mmol/L (high glucose) DMEM medium. Then lentiviral vector containing miR-1 silent sequence or the same volume of lentiviral vector was inoculated into the cells. The AMP activated protein kinase (AMPK) inhibitor Compound C (20 μmol/L) was added to the medium at 12 hours before sampling in inhibitor groups. The expression of phosphorylation of AMPK (p-AMPK), collagenⅠandⅢ, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP-2, MMP-9), and autophagy flux related protein LC3B-Ⅱ and p62/SQSTM1 were measured by Western Blot. Results The purity of rat myocardial fibroblasts in vitro was 97%. Compared with CON+Lv-Vehicle group, there was no significant difference in the expression of p-AMPK in CON+Lv-miR1 group, the expression of p-AMPK in HG+Lv-Vehicle group was significantly decreased (p-AMPK/t-AMPK: 44.72±3.29 vs. 100.00±7.77, 1 < 0.01). The expression of p-AMPK in HG+Lv-miR1 group was higher than that in HG+Lv-Vehicle group (p-AMPK/t-AMPK:60.52±5.16 vs. 44.72±3.29, 1 < 0.05). Compared with HG+Lv-Vehicle group, the expressions of collagen, MMP, LC3B-Ⅱand p62/SQSTM1 in HG+Lv-miR1 group were significantly decreased; after the treatment with AMPK inhibitor, the expressions of collagen, MMP, LC3B-Ⅱ, p62/SQSTM1 were significantly increased (HG+Lv-Vehicle+CC group vs. HG+Lv-Vehicle group: collagen Ⅰ/β-actin: 158.74±13.21 vs. 100.00±7.64, collagenⅢ/β-actin: 177.38± 17.31 vs. 100.00±5.18, MMP-2/β-actin: 130.09±14.31 vs. 100.00±10.47, MMP-9/β-actin: 215.54±20.92 vs. 100.00±11.28, LC3B-Ⅱ/β-actin: 159.34±13.83 vs. 100.00±6.44, p62/SQSTM1/β-actin: 201.01±24.02 vs. 100.00±8.62; HG+Lv-miR1+CC group vs. HG+Lv-miR1 group: collagenⅠ/β-actin: 108.69±9.93 vs. 80.83±7.24, collagenⅢ/β-actin: 127.68±10.46 vs. 81.56±9.97, MMP-2/β-actin: 106.66±10.21 vs. 74.80±7.43, MMP-9/β-actin: 145.65±11.56 vs. 74.63±10.55, LC3B-Ⅱ/β-actin: 150.15±13.28 vs. 22.98±2.87, p62/SQSTM1/β-actin: 130.48±10.74 vs. 49.90±2.27, all 1 < 0.05). Conclusion miR-1 gene silencing inhibits myocardial fibrosis induced by high glucose, its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of p-AMPK, which can recover autophagy flux.

Objective To evaluate the value of the ratio of optic nerve sheath diameter to eyeball transverse diameter (ONSD/ETD) in assessing intracranial pressure using ultrasound in the patients with brain injury.Methods Forty-six patients of both sexes with brain injury in the surgical intensive care unit,were selected.Craniotomy was performed within 24 h after admission to hospital,and the intracranial pressure probe was placed in the lateral cerebral ventricle of the enrolled patients who were aged 18-80 yr,with Glasgow Coma Scale score 3-15.ONSD and ETD were measured within 3 days after operation,three times a day,and the intracranial pressure was simultaneously recorded.The correlation between ONSD/ETD ratio and intracranial pressure were analyzed using the Pearson correlation analysis.The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the accuracy of ONSD/ETD ratio in assessing the intracranial hypertension (intracranial pressure＞20 mmHg).Results The ONSD/ETD ratio was positively correlated with intracranial pressure (r =0.720,P＜0.01).The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.900 (95％ confidence interval 0.854-0.946),and the threshold was 0.248 (sensitivity 89.4％,specificity 77.5％).Conclusion The ONSD/ETD ratio produces higher accuracy in assessing intracranial pressure in the patients with brain injury.

Objective To evaluate role of autophagosomes clearance in delayed cardioprotection by sevoflurane preconditioning in rats with ischemia-reperfusion injury in vivo.Methods Forty-five adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 270-350 g,were randomly (random number) divided into 3 groups:sham operation group (sham group),ischemia-reperfusion group (CON group),sevoflurane preconditioning group (SWOP group).Myocardial ischemia was induced by 30 min occlusion of left anterior descending branch (LAD) of coronary artery followed by reperfusion for 2 h,and myocardial infarct size was stained by triphenyltetrazolium chloride.Cardiomyocyte apoptosis was evaluated by terminal deoxyribonucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotin-16dUTP nick-end labeling.Autophagosomes were detected under transmission electron microscope.Expression of LC3-Ⅱ,cathepsin B,p62 and cleaved caspase-3 were assessed by western blotting.Statistical analysis were performed using one or two way analysis of variance (SPSS 15.0,Chicago,USA) test followed by Dunnet-t or LSD-t test.Results Sevoflurane preconditioning reduced myocardial infarct size and the number of autophagosomes (P =0.027),attenuated cardiomyocyte apoptosis (P =0.042).Sevoflurane preconditioning decreased the level of LC3-Ⅱ (P =0.033),p62 (P =0.041)and cleaved caspase-3 (P =0.037),but increased the level of cathepsin B (P =0.046).Conclusions Delayed cardioprotection by sevoflurane preconditioning increased myocardial clearance of autophagosomes against the delayed ischemia reperfusion injury.
