Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of four-hook needle combined with holographic image in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for completely intrarenal tumors.Methods:The clinical data of 8 patients with completely intrarenal tumors treated by robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with four-hook needle combined with holographic image admitted to General Hospital of Central Theater Command from October 2023 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 6 males and 2 females, with average age of (44.5±12.0) years old. Tumors of 6 cases were in the left side and 2 cases in the right side. The maximum diameter of the tumor was (23.2±8.1) mm. The R. E.N.A.L. score was (9.0±1.4). The preoperative serum creatinine (Scr) was (73.1±14.7) μmol/L. CT-guided four-hook needle was used to locate the edge of completely intrarenal tumor before surgery. During the operation, the tumor was precisely resected under the guidance of hologram and four-hook needle. Perioperative data of patients were collected and analyzed.Results:All the tumor were successfully resected under the guidance of four-hook needle and hologram without conversion to radical nephrectomy or open surgery. The mean operative time was (117.0±14.5) min, the mean hot ischemia time was (20.2±5.1) min, the mean intraoperative blood loss was (75.0±17.3) ml, and the average hospitalization time was (9.5±1.3) days.The one week postoperative Scr was (73.2±14.8) μmol/L, which had no significant difference with that of before operation ( P=0.952). None of them received blood transfusion. The pathology results of 8 patients were clear cell renal cell carcinoma, and the surgical margins were negative. Conclusions:For completely intrarenal tumors, the four-hook needle combined with the hologram can guide the surgeon to quickly locate the tumor, accurately resect the tumor, reduce perioperative complications, and is safe and effective.

Objective:To observe the effects of intervention based on self-regulation mode on illness perception, medical coping styles and quality of life of patients with psoriasis.Methods:Eighty patients with psoriasis from February 2018 to August 2019 in Qinhuangdao First Hospital were selected and divided into two groups by random digits table method, 40 patients in each group. The control group was given routine intervention, and the experimental group was given intervention based on self-regulation mode.

Objective To investigate the effects of upadacitinib on the polarization and inflammation of BV2 microglia after oxygen glucose deprivation/recovery (OGD/R) and to explore its mechanism of action. Methods The experiment was divided into 3 groups: control group, OGD group and upadacitinib treatment group. After BV2 cells were treated with OGD/R, MTT was used to detect cell survival rate. Wound scratch assay was used to detect the cell migration ability. qPCR was used to detect mRNA levels of M1-type polarization markers (CD11b, CD32, iNOS) and M2-type polarization markers (Arg-1, IL-10, CD206) of BV2 cells. ELISA was used to detect the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the culture medium. Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of JAK1/STAT6 pathway-related proteins. Results Upadacitinib increased the survival of BV2 cells after OGD/R (P<0.05), reduced the polarization of BV2 cells to M1 type (P<0.05). Upadacitinib significantly decreased the migration ability of BV2 cells induced by OGD/R (P<0.05), reduced the inflammatory factors secreted by BV2 cells induced by OGD/R: IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α (P<0.05). Upadacitinib increased the survival rate of co-cultured PC12 cells (P<0.05). Upadacitinib significantly inhibited the expression levels of p-JAK1 and p-STAT6 proteins in BV2 cells activated by OGD/R induction (P<0.05). Conclusion Upadacitinib decreases polarization of BV2 induced by OGD/R to M1 type and reduces inflammation, which is related to JAK1/STAT6 pathway.

OBJECTIVE：To in vestigate the effects of dexmedetomidine （Dex）on SIRT 1/Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling pathway in cerebral injury of sepsis model rats ，and explore the mechanism of its protecitve effect on cerebral injury. METHODS ： A total of 80 male SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group （Sham group ），sepsis group （CLP group ），CLP+Dex group（10 μg/kg Dex），CLP+Dex+Sirtinol group （10 μg/kg Dex+2 μL/100 g SIRT 1 inhibitor sirtinol ），with 20 mice in each group. Two hours before modeling ，CLP+Dex+Sirtinol group was injected with sirtinol via lateral ventricle. Sepsis model was induced by cecal ligation and perforation in each group （in sham group ，only operation was performed but no ligation was performed）. At 0，3，6 h after modeling ，CLP+Dex group and CLP+Dex+Sirtinol group were given Dex （10 μg/kg） intraperitoneally，Sham group and CLP group were given constant volume of normal saline intraperitoneally. Cerebral tissue water content，Evans blue （EB）content，apoptosis in cerebral cortex ，the levels of IL- 1β and TNF-α in cerebral tissue as well as the protein expression of SIRT 1，p-Akt，p-GSK3β and β-catenin in hippocampus were detected 24 h after last medication. RESULTS ： Compared with Sham group ，cerebral tissue water content ，EB content ，the number of apoptotic cells in cerebral cortex as well as the levels of IL- 1β and TNF-α in cerebral tissue were increased significantly（P＜0.05），while the protein expression of SIRT 1， p-Akt，p-GSK3β and β-catenin in hippocampus were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. Compared with CLP group ，cerebral tissue water content ，EB content ，the number of apoptotic cells in cerebral cortex as well as the levels of IL- 1β and TNF-α in cerebral tissue were decreased significantly in CLP+Dex group （P＜0.05），while the protein expression of SIRT 1，p-Akt，p-GSK3β and β-catenin in hippocampus were increased significantly （P＜0.05）. Sirtinol could significantly reverse the above-mentioned cerebral protection and factor regulation effects of Dex （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：Dex can protect the cerebral tissue of sepsis model rats，which may play an anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic role by activating SIRT 1/Akt/GSK3β/β-catenin signaling pathway ，so as to reduce cerebral edema ，protect blood-brain barrier and reduce cerebral injury.

We studied the effect of celastrol on the proliferation and apoptosis of adult T-cell leukemia (ATL) cells. After treating adult T-cell leukemia cell lines with different concentrations of celastrol, we analyzed the cell proliferation by MTT and colony formation assays. Flow cytometry was conducted to detect cell apoptosis by Annexin V-FITC/PI staining. Western blotting and dual-luciferase reporter assay were done to study the mechanism how celastrol suppressed the growth of adult T-cell leukemia cells. Celastrol could significantly inhibit the proliferation of adult T-cell leukemia cells, and induce apoptosis of ATL cells. With the increase of the concentration of celastrol, the ratio of Bax/Bcl-2 protein was up-regulated. The Caspase-3/7 protein was cleaved and activated after treatment with celastrol. Moreover, the expression of HTLV-1-encoded viral protein Tax was significantly inhibited in the celastrol treated cells. Taken together, these results indicated that celastrol effectively inhibited the proliferation of adult T-cell leukemia cells by regulating the expression of Bcl-2 family protein, and induced cell apoptosis by activating Caspase dependent pathway. In addition, celastrol could inhibit the expression of viral protein Tax. This study will provide an experimental basis for the clinical application of celastrol in the treatment of adult T-cell leukemia.

Objective To analyze the aminoglycoside ( AG ) antibiotics resistance rate of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae ( CRKP ) and its molecular mechanisms.Methods One hundred and four strains of CRKP isolated from 4 hospitals in Zhejiang Province from January 2013 to June 2014 were collected, including 56 strains from Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital , Zhejiang University School of Medicine ( S hospital ), 22 from the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine ( Z hospital), 13 from Yiwu TCM Hospitals (Y Hospital) and 13 from Fuyang First People's Hospital (F Hospital).VITEK 2 Compact method and K-B disk method were used to detect the susceptibility of commonly used antibiotics including three kinds of AGs (kanamycin, gentamycin and amikacin ).PCR and sequencing techniques were used to screen the aminoglycoside resistance -related 16S rRNA methylation genes (rmtA, rmtB and armA) and the aminoglycoside modified enzyme resistance gene [aac(6′)Ⅰb].The relationship between drug resistance and carrier status of drug resistance genes was analyzed .Homologous analysis of rmtB-positive strains was performed using PFGE to examine the epidemic spread of strains in each hospital.Results All 104 CRKP strains were multi-drug resistant and had high resistance to cephalosporins, fluoroquinolones ( ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin ) and nitrofurantoin.The resistance rates to gentamicin, kanamycin and amikacin were 73.1%(76/104), 64.4%(67/104) and 56.7%(59/104), respectively.The carrying rates of aminoglycoside-resistance genes were: rmtB 56.7%( 59/104 ), aac (6′)Ⅰb 17.3%(18/104), armA 1.9%(2/104); while no rmtA was detected.Thirty-seven strains did not carry the screened genes.Amikacin-resistant strains were resistant to both kanamycin and gentamicin, and both were rmtB-positive strains.The PFGE classification results showed that 104 strains were divided into 11 clonal populations, and there were scattered non-population clones in each hospital. There were seven major clonal populations (Ⅰ-Ⅶ) carrying rmtB genes, of which typeⅠ, typeⅢand typeⅤwere prevalent in S hospital ; typeⅡ, typeⅥand TypeⅦwere popular in Z hospital ; the distribution of strains in Y hospital was scattered ; F hospital had one independent clone type Ⅳ(3 strains).Conclusion AGs still have certain sensitivity to CRKP strains.The main mechanism of strain resistance to AGs is the rmtB gene-mediated 16S rRNA methylase.

Objective To prepare a recombinant pneumococcal surface protein A clade 4 ( PspA4) and to analyze its immunogenicity.Methods The gene encoding PspA4 protein was synthesized and inserted into pET-20b to construct the recombinant expression plasmid.The transformed E.coli strains carrying expression plasmid were induced to express PspA4 protein.ELISA was performed to analyze the ti-ters of PspA4-specific IgG in a mouse model.Results The recombinant PspA4 protein of high purity ( 90%) was successfully prepared.The titers of PspA4-specific antibody in mice received PspA4 immuniza-tion were 106 times higher than those of the blank control group, suggesting that the expressed PspA4 protein had the advantage of high immunogenicity.Conclusion This study suggested that the PspA4 protein might be used as one of the candidate protein for the development of pneumovax and laid a foundation for further in-vestigation on pneumococcal protein based vaccine.

Ureaplasma urealyticum (UU) is closely related to human diseases including non-gonococcal urethritis (NGU), infertility, premature membranes and neonatal bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Researches on the pathogenicity of UU have become a hot topic in recent years, and suggest that many potential pathogenicity genes or putative pathogenicity islands are involved in its virulence. Moreover, the biovar and serum types of UU, the infection concentration and the state of the host immune system are also important to determine whether UU can cause human disease or not. In this article the recent progress of researches in the pathogenicity of UU is reviewed.
