Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine injection combined with esketamine injection in the treatment of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma radical resection.Methods Patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma radical resection were randomly divided into treatment and control groups.The treatment group will receive intravenous administration of 0.6 μg·kg-1 dexmedetomidine 10 minutes before anesthesia induction.Subsequently,anesthesia induction will be performed with intravenous administration of 0.5 mg·kg-1 esketamine.Anesthesia maintenance will be achieved with intravenous infusion of 0.25 mg·kg-1·h-1 esketamine and 0.3 μg·kg-1·h-1 dexmedetomidine used an infusion pump.The control group will receive intravenous administration of an equivalent volume of 0.9％NaCl 10 minutes before anesthesia induction.Anesthesia induction will then be performed with intravenous administration of 2.5-5.0 μg·kg-1 fentanyl.Anesthesia maintenance will involve intravenous infusion of 0.10-0.25 μg·kg-1·min-1 remifentanil used an infusion pump.The anesthesia effectiveness,analgesic effectiveness,hemodynamics and safety were compared between the two groups.Results Treatment group were enrolled 62 cases,1 case dropped out,and 61 cases were finally included in the statistical analysis.Control group were enrolled 61 cases,1 case dropped out,and 60 cases were finally included in the statistical analysis.The recovery room stay time of treatment and control groups was(25.97±4.52)and(18.39±3.64)min,the extubation time was(16.75±4.84)and(10.16±3.18)min,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).After operation 24 h,visual analogue scores of treatment and control groups were(0.85±0.17)and(1.39±0.25)points,adrenocorticotropin levels were(60.07±7.13)and(72.64±9.81)pg·mL-1,cortisol levels were(481.20±49.15)and(539.94±57.77)nmol·L-1,and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The mean arterial pressure at 30 min after anesthesia induction(T1)and at the end of surgery(T2)in treatment group were(82.34±4.98)and(86.57±4.18)mmHg,while those in control group were(77.25±7.16)and(76.02±6.29)mmHg;the heart rates of T1 and T2 in treatment groups were(64.08±4.19)and(66.45±4.83)time·min-1,while those in control group were(68.44±6.02)and(72.08±7.27)time·min-1;and the differences were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The adverse drug reactions in two groups were nausea,vomiting,bradycardia and dizziness.The total incidences of adverse drug reactions in treatment and control groups were 8.20％and 15.00％,without significant difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine injection combined with esketamine injection has a definitive analgesia efficacy in the treatment of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma radical resection,which can significantly reduce stress responses,maintain hemodynamic stability,without increasing the incidence of adverse drug reactions.

This study aims to explore the mechanism of Buyang Huanwu Decoction(BHD) in promoting angiogenesis after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R) of mouse brain microvascular endothelial cell line(brain-derived Endothelial cells.3, bEnd.3) based on the caveolin-1(Cav1)/Yes-associated protein 1(YAP1)/hypoxia-inducible factor-1α(HIF-1α) signaling pathway. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-TOF-MS) was used to analyze the blood components of BHD. The cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) method was used to detect the optimal intervention concentration of drug-containing serum of BHD after OGD/R injury of bEnd.3. The lentiviral transfection method was used to construct a Cav1 silent stable strain, and Western blot and polymerase chain reaction(PCR) methods were used to verify the silencing efficiency. The control bEnd.3 cells were divided into a normal group(sh-NC control group), an OGD/R model + blank serum group(sh-NC OGD/R group), and an OGD/R model + drug-containing serum group(sh-NC BHD group). Cav1 silent cells were divided into an OGD/R model + blank serum group(sh-Cav1 OGD/R group) and an OGD/R model + drug-containing serum group(sh-Cav1 BHD group). The cell survival rate was detected by the CCK-8 method. The cell migration ability was detected by a cell migration assay. The lumen formation ability was detected by an angiogenesis assay. The apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry, and the expression of YAP1/HIF-1α signaling pathway-related proteins in each group was detected by Western blot. Finally, co-immunoprecipitation was used to verify the interaction between YAP1 and HIF-1α. The results showed astragaloside Ⅳ, formononetin, ferulic acid, and albiflorin in BHD can all enter the blood. The drug-containing serum of BHD at a mass fraction of 10% may be the optimal intervention concentration for OGD/R-induced injury of bEnd.3 cells. Compared with the sh-NC control group, the sh-NC OGD/R group showed significantly decreased cell survival rate, cell migration rate, mesh number, node number, and lumen length, significantly increased cell apoptotic rate, significantly lowered phosphorylation level of YAP1 at S127 site, and significantly elevated nuclear displacement level of YAP1 and protein expression of HIF-1α, vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2(VEGFR2). Compared with the same type of OGD/R group, the sh-NC BHD group and sh-Cav1 BHD group had significantly increased cell survival rate, cell migration rate, mesh number, node number, and lumen length, a significantly decreased cell apoptotic rate, a further decreased phosphorylation level of YAP1 at S127 site, and significantly increased nuclear displacement level of YAP1 and protein expression of HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFR2. Compared with the sh-NC OGD/R group, the sh-Cav1 OGD/R group exhibited significantly decreased cell survival rate, cell migration rate, mesh number, node number, and lumen length, a significantly increased cell apoptotic rate, a significantly increased phosphorylation level of YAP1 at S127 site, and significantly decreased nuclear displacement level of YAP1 and protein expression of HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFR2. Compared with the sh-NC BHD group, the sh-Cav1 BHD group showed significantly decreased cell survival rate, cell migration rate, mesh number, node number, and lumen length, a significantly increased cell apoptotic rate, a significantly increased phosphorylation level of YAP1 at the S127 site, and significantly decreased nuclear displacement level of YAP1 and protein expression of HIF-1α, VEGF, and VEGFR2. YAP1 protein was present in the protein complex precipitated by the HIF-1α antibody, and HIF-1α protein was also present in the protein complex precipitated by the YAP1 antibody. The results confirmed that the drug-containing serum of BHD can increase the activity of YAP1/HIF-1α pathway in bEnd.3 cells damaged by OGD/R through Cav1 and promote angiogenesis in vitro.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of adult AML patients with NUP98::HOXA9 fusion gene. METHODS: From May 2017 to October 2023， among 2 113 AML patients who visited the Hematology Department of our hospital, patients with NUP98 rearrangements were screened. The clinical characteristics, chromosome karyotypes, immunophenotypes, gene mutations, treatment efficacy and prognosis of the patients with NUP98::HOXA9 positive were analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 2 113 AML patients, there were 18 cases with NUP98 rearrangement, including 14 NUP98::HOXA9 positive cases, with a detection rate of 0.66% (14/2 113). The median age of the NUP98::HOXA9 positive patients was 42.5 (23-64) years old. The most common chromosome karyotype was t(7; 11)(p15; p15). The immunophenotypes of all patients expressed CD13, CD33, CD117 and CD38, and most patients expressed CD34 and cMPO, while only a few expressed HLA-DR. Second-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to detect genetic mutations associated with leukemia in all 14 patients, and the genes exhibiting a high frequency of mutation were WT1 (10/14), TET2 (7/14), and FLT3-ITD (6/14). Additionally, mutations were also observed in KRAS/NRAS, IDH1, and KIT. Of the 13 patients who received treatment, 9 achieved complete remission (CR), and all 3 patients who received azacytidine(AZA)+ venetoclax (VEN) regimen achieved CR after the first course of treatment. Within this cohort, 6 patients were classified as relapsed/refractory (6/13). 4 patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), of which two achieved long-term survival. The median follow-up time was 12 (2.1-65.0) months, while the median overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were recorded as 11.4 months and 9.6 months, respectively. CONCLUSION The most common type of NUP98 rearrangement in adults AML patients is NUP98::HOXA9 , which is often accompanied by somatic mutations in WT1, TET2, and FLT3-ITD. These patients are prone to relapse, have short survival time, and generally face poor prognoses. Hopefully, utilization of the AZA+VEN regimen is anticipated to enhance the rate of induced remission in the patients, and some patients may prolong their survival through allo-HSCT. However, more effective treatment methods are still needed to improve the overall prognosis of these patients.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH), a severe type of metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), is a leading etiology of end-stage liver disease worldwide, posing significant health and economic burdens. microRNA-320 (miR-320), a ubiquitously expressed and evolutionarily conserved miRNA, has been reported to regulate lipid metabolism; however, whether and how miR-320 affects MASH development remains unclear. By performing miR-320 in situ hybridization with RNAscope, we observed a notable downregulation of miR-320 in hepatocytes during MASH, correlating with disease severity. Most importantly, miR-320 downregulation in hepatocytes exacerbated MASH progression as demonstrated that hepatocyte-specific miR-320 deficient mice were more susceptible to high-fat, high-fructose, high-cholesterol diet (HFHC) or choline-deficient, amino acid-defined, high-fat diet (CDAHFD)-induced MASH compared with control littermates. Conversely, restoration of miR-320 in hepatocytes ameliorated MASH-related steatosis and fibrosis by injection of adeno-associated virus 8 (AAV8) carrying miR-320 in different types of diet-induced MASH models. Mechanistic studies revealed that miR-320 specifically regulated fibroblast growth factor 1 (FGF1) production in hepatocytes by inhibiting regulator factor X1 (RFX1) expression. Notably, knockdown of Rfx1 in hepatocytes mitigated MASH by enhancing FGF1-mediated AMPK activation. Our findings underscore the therapeutic potential of hepatic miR-320 supplementation in MASH treatment by inhibiting RFX1-mediated FGF1 suppression.

Objective:To explore the expression of bone marrow stromal antigen 2(BST2)in advanced non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)tissues and its impact on the prognosis of cisplatin chemotherapy.Methods:This study was a prospective study,127 advanced NSCLC patients who received treatment at Shangrao People's Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were prospective selected,all patients received cisplatin+gemcitabine chemotherapy regimen.They were divided into survival group(n=85)and death group(n=42)according to the prognosis.The relationship between expression of BST2 and clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed.The survival situation was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.Influencing factors of prognosis after cisplatin chemotherapy were discussed by univariate and multivariate COX regression analyses.Results:The positive expression rate of BST2 in cancer tissues(34.65％)in advanced NSCLC tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent tissues(7.09％)(P＜0.05).Expression of BST2 was associated with tumor TNM staging,lymph node metastasis and differentiation degree(P＜0.05).The 1-year survival rate of patients with high expression of BST2(56.98％)was significantly lower than that of patients with low expression(87.80％)(P＜0.05).High expression of BST2 and TNM stage Ⅳ were independent prognostic risk factors for cisplatin chemotherapy in patients with advanced NSCLC(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The expressed of BST2 is highly in patients with advanced NSCLC tissues and closely related to cisplatin chemotherapy poor prognosis,suggesting its potential as a prognostic biomarker.

OBJECTIVE To summarize the current status of position training for clinical pharmacists in China and provide references for the continuous optimization of such training programs.METHODS SinoMed,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang Data were electronically searched to collect position training of clinical pharmacists studies from the inception until November 5th 2024.After data extraction and quality evaluation,descriptive analysis was performed on the results of the included studies.RESULTS&CONCLUSIONS A total of 68 pieces of relevant literature were included in the study.Among them,50 studies reported on training content,49 involved the allocation of teaching resources in the bases,48 addressed training methods,and 39 focused on training evaluation;only 2 studies mentioned faculty development.There were notable variations in the clinical pharmacist training programs across different bases,particularly in the allocation of teaching resources,such as the composition of the teaching team and the utilization of auxiliary teaching tools.Additionally,differences existed in training approaches,such as those employing a single method versus a blended approach.Conversely,the core training content of each base generally revolved around clinical pharmacy practice,demonstrating a degree of consistency.Moreover,the overall emphasis on teacher training and assessment tended to be obviously insufficient.Each base can focus on enhancing the competence of clinical pharmacists by allocating teaching resources,selecting training methods,improving training content,and using evaluation tools,to further enhance the quality of clinical pharmacist training.

Objective:To explore the genetic basis for a fetus featuring oligodactyly.Methods:A fetus with hand deformity identified by ultrasound at the Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital of Hubei Province on October 20, 2018 was selected as the study subject. Clinical information and ultrasonographic finding of the pregnant woman were collected. Following elected abortion, umbilical cord and peripheral venous blood samples of the couple were collected for the extraction of genomic DNA. Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) and trio-whole exome sequencing (trio-WES) were carried out. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing.Results:Ultrasonographic examination at 30 + 2 weeks of gestation revealed that the fetus had small right hand with absence of 2nd ~ 5th fingers, whilst its left hand had appeared to be normal. By CNV-seq, no pathogenic or likely pathogenic copy number variation (CNV) (> 100 kb) was detected in the fetus. Trio-WES revealed that the fetus had harbored a novel heterozygous c.3298G>A (p.Val1100Met) variant of the SMC3 gene. The variant has not been recorded in the population databases, and was predicted to be deleterious by several bioinformatics software and evolutionarily conserved based on multiple sequence alignment analysis. Sanger sequencing showed that neither parent has carried the same variant. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was predicted to be likely pathogenic (PS2+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3). Conclusion:The fetus was diagnosed with Cornelia de Lange syndrome, for which the novel heterozygous c.3298G>A variant of the SMC3 gene may be accountable.

Objective To screen biomarkers for forensic identification of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) by non-targeted metabolomic studies on changes of urine metabolites in rats with AMI.Methods The rat models of the sham surgery group,AMI group and hyperlipidemia+acute myocardial infarction (HAMI) group were established.Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS) was used to analyze the changes of urine metabolic spectrometry in AMI rats.Principal compo-nent analysis,partial least squares-discriminant analysis,and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis were used to screen differential metabolites.The MetaboAnalyst database was used to analyze the metabolic pathway enrichment and access the predictive ability of differential metabolites.Results A total of 40 and 61 differential metabolites associated with AMI and HAMI were screened,respec-tively.Among them,22 metabolites were common in both rat models.These small metabolites were mainly concentrated in the niacin and nicotinamide metabolic pathways.Within the 95% confidence in-terval,the area under the curve (AUC) values of receiver operator characteristic curve for N8-acetyl-spermidine,3-methylhistamine,and thymine were greater than 0.95.Conclusion N8-acetylspermidine,3-methylhistamine,and thymine can be used as potential biomarkers for AMI diagnosis,and abnormal metabolism in niacin and nicotinamide may be the main causes of AMI.This study can provide reference for the mechanism and causes of AMI identification.
