Objective To investigate the application of the Health Effective Data and Information System(HEDIS)-based phased health education in infertile patients treated with assisted reproductive technology(ART).Methods A total of 120 infertile patients who were admitted to The First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from March 2023 to September 2023 were consecutively selected and randomly assigned to observation group or control group at a ratio of 1:1 using a random number table.During the ART treatment period,the control group was given conventional nursing care,while the observation group was given HEDIS based phased health education for nursing intervention.The negative emotion score,shame score,self-management ability score,and nursing satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results After intervention,the Hamilton Anxiety Scale(HAMA)score and Hamilton Depression Scale(HAMD)score,and self-rating scale(ISS)scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The degree of nursing satisfaction of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The HEDIS-based phased health education can alleviate the negative emotions of anxiety and depression,reduce the sense of shame,and enhance nursing satisfaction in infertile patients during ART treatment.

OBJECTIVES: Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma cell malignancy occurring in middle and old age. MM is still an incurable disease due to its frequent recurrence and drug resistance. However, its pathogenesis is still unclear. Abnormal amino acid metabolism is one of the important characteristics of MM, and the important metabolic pathway of amino acids participates in protein synthesis as basic raw materials. Aminoacyl transfer ribonucleic acid synthetase (ARS) gene is a key regulatory gene in protein synthesis. This study aims to explore the molecular mechanism for ARS, a key factor of amino acid metabolism, in regulating amino acid metabolism in MM and affecting MM growth. METHODS: The corresponding gene number was combined with the gene expression profile GSE5900 dataset and GSE2658 dataset in Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to standardize the gene expression data of ARS. GSEA_4.2.0 software was used to analyze the difference of gene enrichment between healthy donors (HD) and MM patients in GEO database. GraphPad Prism 7 was used to draw heat maps and perform data analysis. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression model were used to analyze the expression of ARS gene and the prognosis of MM patients, respectively. Bone marrow samples from 7 newly diagnosed MM patients were collected, CD138⁺ and CD138^- cells were obtained by using CD138 antibody magnetic beads, and the expression of ARS in MM clinical samples was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR. Human B lymphocyte GM12878 cells and human MM cell lines ARP1, NCI-H929, OCI-MY5, U266, RPMI 8266, OPM-2, JJN-3, KMS11, MM1.s cells were selected as the study objects. The expression of ARS in MM cell lines was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting. Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) lentiviruses were used to construct gene knock-out plasmids (VARS-sh group). No-load plasmids (scramble group) and gene knock-out plasmids (VARS-sh group) were transfected into HEK 293T cells with for virus packaging, respectively. Stable expression cell lines were established by infecting ARP1 and OCI-MY5 cells, and the effects of knockout valyl-tRNA synthetase (VARS) gene on proliferation and apoptosis of MM cells were detected by cell counting and flow cytometry, respectively. GEO data were divided into a high expression group and a low expression group according to the expression of VARS. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to explore the downstream pathways affected by VARS. Gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOF/MS) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used to detect the valine content in CD138⁺ cells and ARP1, OCI-MY5 cells and supernatant of knockdown VARS gene in bone marrow samples from patients, respectively. RESULTS: Gene enrichment analysis showed that tRNA processing related genes were significantly enriched in MM compared with HD (P<0.0001). Further screening of tRNA processing-pathway related subsets revealed that cytoplasmic aminoacyl tRNA synthetase family genes were significantly enriched in MM (P<0.0001). The results of gene expression heat map showed that the ARS family genes except alanyl-tRNA synthetase (AARS), arginyl-tRNA synthetase (RARS), seryl-tRNA synthetase (SARS) in GEO data were highly expressed in MM (all P<0.01). With the development of monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) to MM, the gene expression level was increased gradually. Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis of survival results showed that there were significant differences in the prognosis of MM patients in methionyl-tRNA synthetase (MARS), asparaginyl-tRNA synthetase (NARS) and VARS between the high expression group and the low expression group (all P<0.05). Cox regression model multivariate analysis showed that the high expression of VARS was associated with abnormal overall survival time of MM (HR=1.83, 95% CI 1.10 to 3.06, P=0.021). The high expression of NARS (HR=0.90, 95% CI 0.34 to 2.38) and MARS (HR=1.59, 95% CI 0.73 to 3.50) had no effect on the overall survival time of MM patients (both P>0.05). Real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting showed that VARS, MARS and NARS were highly expressed in CD138⁺ MM cells and MM cell lines of clinical patients (all P<0.05). Cell counting and flow cytometry results showed that the proliferation of MM cells by knockout VARS was significantly inhibited (P<0.01), the proportion of apoptosis was significantly increased (P<0.05). Bioinformatics analysis showed that in addition to several pathways including the cell cycle regulated by VARS, the valine, leucine and isoleucine catabolic pathways were upregulated. Non-targeted metabolomics data showed reduced valine content in CD138⁺ tumor cells in MM patients compared to HD (P<0.05). HPLC results showed that compared with the scramble group, the intracellular and medium supernatant content of ARP1 cells and the medium supernatant of OCI-MY5 in the VARS-shRNA group was increased (all P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS MM patients with abnormal high expression of VARS have a poor prognosis. VARS promotes the malignant growth of MM cells by affecting the regulation of valine metabolism.

Objective:To investigate the asymmetric geometry of middle cerebral artery (MCA) bifurcations and aneurysm formation.Methods:From January 2017 to April 2020, 65 patients with MCA aneurysm underwent 3D-digital subtraction angiography (DSA) in our hospital were recruited in this study; 170 patients without arterial stenosis or cerebral aneurysm at the same time period were selected as normal control group; their corresponding morphological parameters of MCA bifurcations in the imaging data were analyzed. Bifurcation angle was termed as φ1, while small and large lateral angles were termed as φ2 and φ3, respectively. D2, S2, C2, T2 and E2 represented diameter, sectional area, circumference, tortuosity and ellipticity of the branch forming angle φ2 with parent vessel, respectively; whereas D3, S3, C3, T3 and E3 represented diameter, sectional area, circumference, tortuosity and ellipticity of the branch forming angle φ2 with parent vessel on the contralateral branch, respectively. The independent factors affecting the formation of MCA aneurysm were screened by binary Logistic regression, and the predictive value of independent factors affecting the formation of MCA aneurysm was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:(1) The aneurysmal group had significantly larger φ1, significantly smaller φ2 and φ3 than the normal control group ( P<0.05); D3, S3, C3, T2, T3 and E2 in the aneurysmal group were significantly higher/larger than those in the normal control group ( P<0.05). In terms of the symmetry of bilateral branches of blood vessels, the difference of φ3/φ2 ratio between the normal control group and aneurysm group was statistically significant ( P<0.05). (2) Binary Logistic regression results showed that φ2 was the protective factor for aneurysm formation ( OR=0.880, 9 5%CI: 0.844-0.918, P=0.000), while D3 and φ3/φ2 ratio were the risk factors for aneurysm formation ( OR=4.493, 9 5%CI: 1.414-14.278, P=0.011; OR=30.676, 95%CI: 9.884-95.202, P=0.000). (3) The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of φ2 was the largest, reaching 0.93, and the optimal cut-off point was 104.59°, enjoying sensitivity and specificity of 87.7% and 85.9%, respectively. Conclusion:Normal MCA bifurcations almost show symmetrical morphology, whereas aneurysmal MCA bifurcations show asymmetrical morphology in both lateral angles and daughter branches; φ2 is the best morphological parameter to predict the aneurysm formation of MCA bifurcations.

Objective: To investigate the proteins expression difference after upregulation of human CD99 in Hodgkin Lymphoma cell line, L428 cell, and verify the function of differential proteins. Methods: The differential proteins were detected by two-dimensional fluorescence difference gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry analysis, cluster analysis was done by GOfact. Results: There were 38 proteins screened out, of which 21 proteins were positively associated with CD99, while 17 proteins were negative. Among the 38 proteins, 32 proteins participated in biological process, and 35 proteins were involved in the composition and construction. And 28 proteins participated in multifaceted biological activities including antioxidation, protein binding, catalytic activity, regulation of enzyme, signal transduction, molecular structure, regulation of translation and ion transport. Conclusions The changes of the differential proteins, correlated with cytoskeleton, cell differentiation, signal pathway and regulating gene expression, are closely relevant to the translation between Hodgkin/Reed-Sternberg and B lymphocyte cell.

Objective To investigate the osteogenic ability of dextran sulfate/recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2/chitosan (DS/rhBMP2/CS) nano microspheres combined with coralline hydroxyapatite (CHA) in repair of segmental bone defects.Methods DS/rhBMP2/CS microspheres prepared by ionic crosslinking method were adsorbed into CHA by lyophilization.Seventy-two New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into 3 equal groups after they had been made into models of bone defect at the right radius.The defects in the 3 groups were implanted respectively with CHA,rhBMP2/CHA and DS/rhBMP2/ CS/CHA.Another 18 animals served as a blank control group.Blood and bone samples were obtained at 4,8 and 12 weeks after implantation.The serum BGP was detected,and the bone grafts were scanned by micro-CT for calculation of volume ratio of the new bone.Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining was performed after bone decalcification.Results All the 72 animals recovered well without any infection or graft exposure.Gross observation at postoperative 12 weeks showed that the DS/rhBMP2/CS/CHA group was the best in the quality,quantity and strength of the new bone,as well as in the healing of bone defects.The serum levels of bone gamma-carboxyglutamic-acid-containing protein at all time points in the DS/rhBMP2/CS/CHA group were significantly higher than those in the CHA and rhBMP2/CHA groups (P ＜ 0.05).Micro-CT scanning demonstrated obvious progress in bone formation,cortical bone and marrow cavity at all time points in the DS/rhBMP2/CS/CHA group which showed significantly faster bone reconstruction synchronized with material degradation and significantly higher volume ratio of the new bone than the other 2 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Histological examinations showed better morphology of mature cortical bone and new marrow cavity at all time points in the DS/rhBMP2/CS/CHA group than in the other 2 groups.Conclusion Since DS/rhBMP2/CS/CHA possesses a better mechanism of sustained-releasing rhBMP2 to induce bone formation because of its reticular and hole-hole-connected structure,it may perform better in repairing segmental bone defects than simple CHA or rhBMP2/CHA.

Objective:To investigate the impact on ovarian reserve function with two different homostatic methods during laparoscopic cystectomy in treatment of endometrioma.Methods:Eighty four cases with unilateral ovarian cysts which located outside of hilum of ovary undergoing laparoscopic surgery were enrolled in the study. Based on hemostasis method, all patients were divided into 2 groups. Study group included 40 cases in ultrasonic scalpel hemostasis. Control group included 44 cases with suture after excision of endometrioma. Before surgery and the 1st, 3rd cycle after surgery, serum FSH, LH and AMH, and ultrasound basal AFC and PSV were examined and compared.Results: The level of FSH, LH, AMH, AFC and PSV had significant difference between before surgery and after surgery 1st, 3rd. The level of FSH, LH, AMH, AFC and PSV had significant difference within group comparisons after surgery 1st, 3rd. The level of serum FSH and LH in study group were lower than these in control group after surgery 1st. The level of serum AMH in study group were higher than in control group after surgery 3st. The level of serum PSV in study group were higher than in control group after surgery 3st.Conclusion: Ovarian reserve function was decresed heavier in ultrasonic scalpel hemostasis during laparoscopic excision of ovarian endometrioma than in suture. Electrocoagulation of the ovarian tissue should be avoided.

Objective To explore the characteristics of intestinal Microbiota in T2DM patients by two molecular fingerprint technologies,and investigate the correlation of intestinal microbiota and T2DM,and evaluate the application value of two fin-gerprint technologies.Methods Fecal samples of 8 healthy groups and 7 diabetes patients were collected.Then the total DNA of gut microbiota was extracted.Through the analysis of products by two molecular fingerprints of ERIC-PCR and DGGE-PCR,ecological characteristics of diversity and similarity of gut microbiota were obtained in healthy groups and dia-betes patients.Results Compared to healthy groups,the number of bands and Shannon-Wiener index of gut microbiota in di-abetes patients was decreased but no statistical significance.The similarity in patients group was declining(P <0.05),and the construction of gut microbiota was inclined to differ.Two fingerprint technologies of ERIC and DGGE could directly re-flect the diversity of gut microbiota and were the modern molecular biological techniques without depending on cultivation. ERIC was simple and convenient,had a better reflection of microbial diversity,but gel band cutting and regarded asa proper approach with higher diffraction efficiency and excellent repetition to studysequencing couldn’t be performed since there were more influencing factors on the experiment.DGGE could better reflect the ecological characteristics such as microbial diversity and similarity,and selecting bands,gel band cutting and sequencing could be done.Conclusion The composition and construction of gut microbiota in diabetes patients were changed,which suggests the occurrence of the disease had the correlation with gut microbiota.ERIC and DGGE is regarded as a proper approach with higher diffraction efficiency and ex-cellent repetition to study intestinal microbiota,but also gel band cutting,sequencing,bacteria identification can be performed by DGGE,both can be used in combination.

Objective To observe changes of erythropoietin (EPO) and rheology in moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients after the noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) treatment. Methods Healthy adults were selected as control group (n=40) while moderate to severe OSAHS patients were selected as OSAHS group. OSAHS group was underwent NPPV treatment then, Levels of sleep apnea hypopnea index (AHI), sleep mean minimum oxygen saturation (LSaO2) and serum erythropoietin (EPO) were assessed, routine blood test and hemodynam-ic indexes were also checked before treatment and 1 and 3 months after treatment in both groups. Results In both groups serum EPO, blood, blood rheology indexes, AHI, LSaO2 were analysised at each time point by ANOVA repeated measures, all of which show significant different between groups and between each time points within the same group. Indexes in OSAHS group improved with prolonged treatment , but they are in the normal range in the control. Conclusion OSAHS pa-tients with NPPV therapy can significantly relieve hypoxia, reduce serum EPO level and blood viscosity. So NPPV has impor-tant clinical significance in prevention and treatment of OSAHS.
