The etiology of preeclampsia (PE) remains poorly understood. Recent years have seen deepening research into epigenetics, where acetylation modifications of histones have garnered significant attention for their roles in various diseases, particularly in tumor pathologies. Several studies have indicated a crucial role for histone 3 acetylation in PE and hypoxia. Additionally, abnormal expressions of histone deacetylases (HDACs) and/or histone acetyltransferases (HATs) are implicated in the pathogenesis and progression of PE. This review aims to analyze the changes in histone 3 in PE, as well as the mechanisms underlying HDACs and HATs and their upstream or downstream target genes in the disease to elucidate the role of histone acetylation modifications in PE. It also seeks to uncover the potential clinical value of histone acetylation modulatory inhibitors, particularly HDAC inhibitors, in PE.

Objective:To analyze the there-dimensional radiographic characteristics of odontogenic myxoma(OM).Methods:Clinical records,histopathological reports,SCT or CBCT images of 18 patients with OM were retrospectively collected,and radiograph-ic features including lesion site,shape,size,expansion,intralesional septa and relationship with surrounding tissues were analyzed.The lesions were classified into types by the forms of septa.Results:18 patients(8 males and 10 females,aged 9-39 years old)were included.Among them,12 lesions(66.7％)were round-like in shape,7(38.9％)were located in the posterior maxilla,and 8(44.4％)in the posterior mandible.According to the septa map,the lesions included 4(22.2％)without septum(unilocular type),4 with(22.2％)sporadic septum on the periphery of the tumor(peripheral type),4(22.2％)with the septum from the periphery towards the center of the tumor(centripetal type)and 6(16.7％)with multiple septa interwoven as grid-like trabeclations(criss-crossing tup).Labial/buccal cortex expansion was present in 11 lesions(61.1％),and palatal cortex expansion in 12 lesions(66.7％).Moreover,cortex discontinuity occurred in 14 lesions(77.8％),impacted tooth was present in 9 lesions(16.7％),and root resorption was present in 8 lesions(44.4％).Conclusion:Most OMs occur in the posterior jaw,with multilocular and discontinued cortex.OMs can be classified into unilocular,perpheral,centripetal and cirss-crossing type by the forms of septa in the lesion.

Objective:To investigate the effect of altitude on the risk of pre-eclampsia (PE).Methods:This cross-sectional study included 19 246 pregnant women who delivered in Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. General clinical data, pregnancy outcomes and neonatal outcomes were collected. The diagnosis of PE was based on the disease diagnosis coding of medical record information system and the Chinese guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (2020). According to the altitude of residence, the subjects were divided into low altitude group (9 931 cases), middle altitude group (9 068 cases) and high altitude group (247 cases). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between altitude and the risk of PE, after adjusting for confounding factors such as age, ethnicity, mode of conception, gestational diabetes mellitus, and hemoglobin level.Results:(1) Among the 19 246 pregnant women, 752 (3.91%, 752/19 246) were diagnosed with PE. The incidence of PE in the low altitude group, middle altitude group and high altitude group was 2.95% (293/9 931), 4.91% (445/9 068) and 5.67% (14/247), respectively. With the increase of living altitude, the incidence of PE increased significantly ( P<0.001). (2) The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that compared with the low altitude area, the risk of PE in pregnant women living in the middle altitude area and high altitude area increased by 70% ( OR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.46-1.97; P<0.001) and 98% ( OR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.14-3.43; P=0.016). (3) The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after fully adjusting for confounding factors, the risk of PE increased by 40% for every 500 meters of elevation ( OR=1.40, 95% CI: 1.25-1.57; P<0.001). Compared with those living in low altitude areas, the risk of PE in pregnant women living in middle altitude and high altitude areas increased by 72% ( OR=1.72, 95% CI: 1.47-2.00; P<0.001) and 100% ( OR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.07-3.74; P=0.030). Conclusion:In the high-altitude environment of Gansu Province, the risk of PE gradually increases with the increase of altitude.

Objective:To analyze the three-dimensional radiographic characteristics of calcifying odon-togenic cyst and calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor using spiral computed tomography(CT)and cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT).Methods:Clinical records,histopathological reports,and CBCT or non-enhanced spiral CT images of 19 consecutive patients with calcifying odontogenic cyst(COC)and 16 consecutive patients with calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor(CEOT)were retrospec-tively acquired,and radiographic features,including location,size,expansion,internal structure and calcification,were analyzed.Results:Among the 19 COC cases(12 males and 7 females,with an average age of 27 years),89.5％(17/19)of the lesions originated from the anterior and premolar areas,100.0％of them exhibited cortex expansion,and 78.9％had discontinued cortex.Among the 16 CEOT cases(3 males and 13 females,with an average age of 36 years),81.3％(13/16)of the lesions were in the premolar and molar areas,56.3％of them exhibited cortex expansion,and 96.8％had discontinued cortex.According to the distribution of internal calcifications,these lesions were divided in-to:Ⅰ(non-calcification type):absence of calcification;Ⅱ(eccentric marginal type):multiple calcifi-cations scattered along one side of the lesion;Ⅲ(diffused type):numerous calcifications diffusely dis-tributed into the lesion;Ⅳ(plaque type):with a ≥ 5 mm calcified patch;V(peri-coronal type):multiple calcifications clustered around impacted teeth.Calcifications were present in 73.7％of COC le-sions,including 9 type Ⅱ,3 type Ⅲ and 2 type Ⅳ lesions,and 42.8％of CEOT lesions had calcifica-tion images,including 2 type Ⅲ and 5 type V lesions.Six COC lesions had odontoma-like images.Moreover,8 of 9 type Ⅰ CEOTs were histologically Langerhans cell-rich subtype,which had a smaller size(with an average mesiodistal diameter of 17.8 mm)and were not associated with impacted teeth.Conclusion:COC lesions tended to originate from the anterior part of the jaw and exhibit cortex expan-sion,and were sometimes associated with odontoma.CEOT commonly occurred in the posterior jaw and had discontinued cortex.Two lesions had significantly different calcification map.Over 70％of COC le-sions had calcification images,which were mostly scattered along one side of the cysts,far from the im-pacted teeth.Approximately 60％of CEOT lesions exhibited smaller size and non-calcification,and the remaining CEOT cases often had calcification images clustered around the impacted teeth.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage(aSAH)is one of the most damaging diseases in the brain.It is caused by multiple mechanisms and increased intracranial pressure is one of the most important.In clinical practice,it has been found that aSAH patients have a series of pathophysiological changes after increased intracranial pressure,which not only aggravates the secondary damage of brain tissue,but also becomes an unfavorable factor for the repair of damaged brain tissue.In many past studies on intracranial pressure,the application of intracranial pressure monitoring to guide the treatment of traumatic brain injury(TBI)patients has improved the prognosis of TBI patients,and intracranial pressure monitoring has become a routine clinical monitoring method.However,there are few clinical studies on intracranial pressure in aSAH patients,and it is not clear whether the research results and experience from TBI patients are applicable to the clinical practice of aSAH patients.The authors reviewed the reported clinical studies,and reviewed the change rule,application range and intervention threshold of intracranial presssure in aSAH patients.

Preeclampsia is a unique complication in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, but its pathogenesis remains unclear and the early diagnosis and treatment methods are yet to be perfect. Termination of pregnancy at the right time is the only way to prevent its deterioration and avoid adverse pregnancy outcomes. In recent years, with the in-depth research, non-coding RNAs has been found to be involved in many important physiological and pathological processes such as proliferation and apoptosis of trophoblast cells and these non-coding RNAs can regulate each other to form an intricate and competitive endogenous RNA regulatory network. This article will introduce the biological roles of non-coding RNAs in regulating the invasion and proliferation of trophoblast cells in patients with preeclampsia and possible regulatory relationship between non-coding RNAs. Furthermore, the potential clinical value of non-coding RNAs as diagnostic biomarkers for preeclampsia and therapeutic targets are also elaborated.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between mental resilience and quality of life in patients with Parkinson ′s disease and provide basis for paying attention to the mental health of this group. Methods:A total of 190 in patients with Parkinson ′s disease (PD) were selected from April to July 2017 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University. The general data questionnaire, Mental Resilience Scale and 39-Item Quality of Life (QOL) Questionnaires were used to investigate among the patients. Results:The mental resilience score of PD patients was 48.0 (29.8, 62.2) points and the quality of life score was 56.0 (27.8, 82.0) points. There was a significant negative correlation between mental resilience and quality of life score ( r value was -0.538, P<0.01). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that with the increase of psychological elasticity score, the score of quality of life decreased ( b value was -0.002, P<0.001). Conclusions:The mental resilience and quality of life of PD patients are both at a low level, the improvement of mental resilience is beneficial to improve their quality of life.
