Objective To investigate the value of 4D-CTA combined with SDF-1a/CXCR4 signaling pathway in evaluating the risk of intracranial aneurysm rupture.Methods Fifty patients with unruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms and 50 patients with ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms were divided into unruptured group 1 and ruptured group 1.All patients underwent 4D-CTA examination and serumSDF-1alevel was detected.Non-ruptured group 1 was followed up for 12 months(After conservative treatment),on this basis,patients with ruptured posterior communicating aneurysms were included in ruptured group 2,and patients with unruptured posterior communicating aneurysms were included in non-ruptured group 2.Results The AUC values of Wn,AR,L,SR,SDF-1a and their combinations in diagnosing ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms were all greater than 0.70.The AUC values of Wn,AR,L,SR,SDF-1a and their combinations in predicting ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms in ruptured group 2 were all greater than 0.70.Conclusion 4D-CTA combined with SDF-1acan effectively distinguish ruptured intracranial posterior communicating aneurysms and predict the risk of rupture.

Objective To investigate the effect of cysteine-rich acidic secretory protein-like protein 1(SPARCL1)on atherosclerosis(AS)plaque formation.Methods A case-control study design was used,394 patients with con-firmed AS were selected as the case group,and 394 healthy medical examiners matched for age and gender were se-lected as the control group.The expression level of serum SPARCL1 was determined by enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assay;immunohistochemistry was used to assess the expression level and localization of SPARCL1 protein in the AS plaque region,and the expression of SPARCL1 protein was also detected in the neutrophils and monocytes of peripheral blood of AS patients and normal controls;SPARCL1 overexpressing and the recombinant adenoviral vec-tors were constructed to inhibit SPARCL1 overexpression and expression,and the effects of SPARCL1 on cell mi-gration were observed in the cell scratch assay using mouse macrophage cells(J774A.1)as target cells.Results Serum SPARCL1 levels in the AS patient group were lower than those in the healthy group(P<0.05);high SPARCL1 expression was detected in AS plaques and was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm of foamy cells;SPARCL1 expression levels in peripheral blood neutrophils and monocytes were lower than those in normal controls in AS patients(P<0.05);recombinant SPARCL1 overexpression and inhibition of expression of adenovirus was successfully constructed;the cell migration rate was decreased in J774A.1 cells that inhibited SPARCL1 expression and increased in J774A.1 cells that overexpressed SPARCL1(P<0.05).Conclusion SPARCL1 is highly ex-pressed in foam cells at the site of AS lesions,which may result from compensatory recruitment of peripheral blood monocytes and neutrophils,and SPARCL1 may be involved as a protective factors for blood vessels in inhibiting the development of AS plaques.

Objective To investigate the role of lncSIL in transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)-induced alveo-lar epithelial interstitial transformation(EMT)and its related signaling pathways.Methods Western blot was used to detect the effect of lncSIL silencing on the expression of E-cadherin(E-cad),alpha-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)and Collagen I(Col I)in the process of EMT induced by TGF-β1.LncSIL interacting proteins were ana-lyzed by RNA pulldown.Western blot was used to detect the effect of overexpression or silencing of lncSIL on the expression of its target gene enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)and its downstream factors P21 and cyclin-de-pendent kinase 6(CDK6).Flow cytometry was used to analyze the effect of lncSIL on cell cycle progression.Re-sults After lncSIL silencing,the expression of α-SMA and Col I increased,the expression of E-cad decreased.RNA pulldown assay showed that EZH2 was the target protein that interacted with lncSIL,and the expression of EZH2 increased after silencing lncSIL,the expression of EZH2 downstream gene P21 decreased,CDK6 increased.Flow cytometry showed that the number of cells in S phase significantly increased.When lncSIL was overexpressed,the expression of EZH2 and CDK6 was down-regulated,the expression of P21 was up-regulated,and the number of S phase cells significantly decreased.Conclusion LncSIL inhibits TGF-β1-induced alveolar epithelial cell mesen-chymal transition by negatively regulating EZH2/P21/CDK6 signaling pathway to inhibit cell cycle progression.

Objective:To assess the effectiveness of a 6-month Ba Duan Jin exercise program in improving the balance of community-dwelling older adults.Methods:A two arms, parallel-group, cluster randomized controlled trial was conducted in 1 028 community residents aged 60-80 years in 40 communities in 5 provinces of China. Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.

Objective To evaluate the effect of modified and traditional subcostal and anterior quadratus lumborum block on postoperative analgesia in patients with laparoscopic nephrectomy.Methods 46 patients underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy.They were randomly divided into two groups:traditional subcostal quadratus lumborum block(group T)and modified subcostal quadratus lumborum block(group M),with 23 cases in each group.Before anesthesia induction,the T group was subjected to the traditional subcostal and anterior quadratus lumborum block under ultrasound guidance,and the M group was subjected to the modified subcostal quadratus lumborum block under ultrasound guidance.All were given 0.5％ropivacaine 20 ml.Patients controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)was performed in both groups.The dermatomal levels of 5min,10 min and 15min after block was recorded.VAS pain scores at rest and cough were recorded at 6,24 and 48 h after the block.The dosage of Sufentanil,the number of analgesic pump compressions and the flurbiprofen rescue were recorded 24 h after surgery.Results The number of block plane segments in group M at 5,10 and 15 minutes after block were 6(4,8),8(6,9)and 8(6,9),respectively,which were significantly more than the T group[4(2,6),6(2,9),6(2,9)](P＜0.05).The VAS pain scores of patients in group M were(1.6±0.5)points at rest and(3.7±0.6)points at cough 6 hours after block,24 hours after the block were(2.3±0.4)points and(3.4±0.4)points,respectively,48 hours after the block were(2.5±0.8)min and(3.2±0.7)min,respectively.The VAS pain scores of and at rest and cough 6 hours after block in T group were(2.5±0.7)points and(5.6±0.8)points,respectively,24 hours after the block were(3.1±0.5)points and(4.5±0.7)points,respectively,48 hours after the block were(3.3±0.6)min and(4.2±0.6)min,respectively.Group M was lower than group T(P＜0.05).In group M,the dosage of sufentanil,the times of analgesic pump and the rate of analgesic relief 24 hours after operation were(23.1±4.3)μg,5(4,7)times and 4.3％,respectively,which were significantly lower than those in T group[(34.7±6.8)μg,11(9,12)times,21.7％](P＜0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided modified subcostal and anterior quadratus lumborum block has better analgesic effect than traditional technique in patients undergoing laparoscopic nephrectomy,which can reduce the amount of postoperative analgesic drugs and effectively relieve postoperative pain.

Objective:To explore the application effect of lower limb strength training based on "Internet +" in the home rehabilitation of knee osteoarthritis (KOA) patients.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 80 KOA patients who visited Pain Outpatient Department of Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from May 2021 to December 2022 were selected. They were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group by the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. The control group adopted routine home rehabilitation nursing, and the observation group implemented lower limb strength training based on "Internet +" on the basis of the control group. Both groups were intervened for 3 months, and the knee joint pain degree (VAS score), knee joint function (KOOS score) and exercise compliance of the two groups were compared.Results:After intervention, the VAS score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group and the KOOS score was higher than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). There were 26 cases of high compliance, 11 cases of partial compliance and 3 cases of low compliance in the observation group, and 19, 10 and 11 cases in the control group, respectively. The exercise compliance of the observation group was better than that of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=1.997, P=0.046) . Conclusions:The implementation of lower limb strength training rehabilitation management based on "Internet +" can effectively alleviate knee pain in knee osteoarthritis patients, improve knee function, and improve their compliance with home exercise.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of self-crosslinked hyaluronic acid (SCH) gel on endometrium recovery after artificial abortion.Methods:A multicenter, prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted across 18 hospitals from December 2021 to February 2023, involving 382 women who underwent artificial abortion. Participants were randomly allocated to receive either treatment with SCH gel (SCH group) or no treatment (control group) in a 1∶1 ratio. The primary outcome was endometrium thickness in 14 to 18 days after the first postoperative menstruation. Secondary outcomes included changes in menstrual volume during the first postoperative menstruation, menstruation resumption within 6 postoperative weeks, time to menstruation resumption, duration of the first postoperative menstruation, and incidence of dysmenorrhea.Results:Baseline characteristics of participants were comparable between the two groups (all P>0.05), with 95.3% (182/191) in SCH group and 92.7% (177/191) in the control group completed the study. The postoperative endometrial thickness in SCH group was significantly greater than that in the control group [(9.78±3.15) vs (8.95±2.32) mm; P=0.005]. SCH group also had significantly fewer participants with reduced menstrual volume [23 cases (12.6%, 23/182) vs 31 cases (17.5%, 31/177); P=0.038]. Although SCH group experienced less dysmenorrhea during the first postoperative menstrual period, this difference was not statistically significant [28.5% (51/179) vs 37.1% (65/175); P=0.083]. Outcomes were similar between SCH group and the control group regarding the proportion of participants who resumed menstruation within 6 weeks postoperatively, time to menstruation resumption, and duration of the first postoperative menstruation ( P=0.792, 0.485, and 0.254, respectively). No serious adverse events were observed during the study period, and no adverse events were attributed to SCH gel treatment. Conclusion:The application of SCH gel after artificial abortion is safe and might aid in the recovery of the endometrium.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of the position pillows for neuraxial anesthesia.Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Four hundred and twelve patients regardless of gender, aged ≥18 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ, who underwent elective surgery under neuraxial anesthesia at Peking University Third Hospital from February to October 2023, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=206 each) using a random number table method: pillow group (P group) and control group (C group). Group C underwent the conventional procedure for neuraxial anesthesia. The patients were placed in a position using the position pillow on the basis of oral education before routine anesthesia in group P. The success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and position placement time were recorded. The adjustment of position, body movement and occurrence of discomfort during the puncture were also recorded. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the level of anxiety before positioning, after positioning and after anesthesia. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position after the anesthesia was completed. Results:Compared with group C, the time for positioning was significantly shortened, the anxiety level was decreased after positioning and after anesthesia, the rate of improvement in anxiety was increased, the scores for the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position were increased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and incidence of body movement during the puncture and incidence of the adjustment of position ( P>0.05). No discomfort was observed in either group during the puncture. Conclusions:This new type of position pillows for the neuraxial anesthesia can not only optimize the effect of position placement, but also improve the patients′ comfort.

Objective To explore the comparison of the predictive value of three risk assessment tools on the chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting(CINV)in cancer patients.Methods From January 2022 to December 2022,convenience sampling was used to select 626 cancer patients with Intravenous chemotherapy in the Department of Hepatobiliary Pancreatic Oncology of Zhejiang Cancer Hospital as the research object.CINV risk assessment of patients was performed using George teams acute CINV prediction tool,Dranitsari's CINV risk assessment and CINV nomogram model.Area under curve(AUC),sensitivity,specificity and Youden index were used to compare the predictive value of the three tools.Results Totally 622 patients were ultimately included in the study,with an overall effective rate of 99.36%.There were 51.13%(318/622)patients who experienced CINV.Specifically,patients with grade 2 or higher acute CINV accounted for 18.17%(113/622).When using the three tools for acute CINV risk assessment,the AUC was respectively 0.591,0.616 and 0.558.And Dranitsari's CINV risk assessment has the highest sensitivity,acute and delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting prediction tool has the highest specificity.Comparatively,Dranitsari's CINV risk assessment on the Yorden index is better.Conclusion The incidence of CINV in cancer patients is at a high level.The three tools can not effectively predict the risk of acute CINV.We need to develop a localized,multi-disease,standardized CINV risk assessment model for hospital.
