AIM:To investigate the therapeutic effect of mitochondrial fission inhibitor-1(Mdivi-1)on experi-mental autoimmune encephalomyelitis(EAE)in mice,and to explore its mechanism.METHODS:The mice immunized with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide fragment 35-55(MOG35-55)were randomly divided into DMSO model group and Mdivi-1 intervention group.All mice were sacrificed on the 28th day after the first immunization.The demyelination was analyzed by Luxol fast blue staining.The protective mechanism of Mdivi-1 in the spinal cord tissue was investigated by immunofluorescence staining,TUNEL staining and the in vitro experiment with MO3.13 oligodendrocytes treated with staurosporine.The mitochondrial depolarization was detected by JC-1 staining,the cell injury was checked by LDH leakage,and the viability of MO3.13 oligodendrocytes was determined by MTT assay.RESULTS:Compared with DMSO model group,the demyelinating injury was alleviated and the proportion of apoptotic CC1+ oligodendrocytes in Mdivi-1 group was decreased.The cleaved caspase-3,caspase-9,cytochrome C and Bax protein expression levels in the spinal cord of Mdivi-1-treated mice was also attenuated.The in vitro MO3.13 cell experiments suggested that Mdivi-1 inhibited MO3.13 cell mitochondrial depolarization,attenuated the cell damage and increased the cell viability.CONCLUSION:Mdivi-1 pro-tects against the myelin injury in EAE mice,which may be related to the suppression of oligodendrocyte apoptosis.

Objective:To explore the effect of family empowerment model on the improvement of swallowing care ability and care preparedness of primary caregivers of first-episode stroke dysphagia patients, further to explore its impact on patients′s wallowing function and life quality.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled study. From January 2021 to December 2022, 80 main caregivers of patients with dysphagia caused by manual stroke admitted to the Department of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, Shenzhen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were selected as the research objects, and 40 cases in the control group and 40 cases in the observation group were selected by random number table method. The control group were treated with conventional nursing care of first-episode stroke dysphagia patients in the acupuncture and moxibustion Department. On the basis of the conventional care in the control group, the observation group were treated with family empowerment model intervention for 14 days and was followed up for 28 days. Primary caregivers′ swallowing care ability, Caregiver Preparedness Scale (CPS), patients′ swallowing function rate, Swallowing Related Quality of Life (SWALQOL) were used to evaluate the effects before intervention and at the end of intervention.Results:There were 18 males and 19 females primary caregivers in the control group, aged (55.61 ± 7.43) years old. There were 18 males and 21 females primary caregivers in the observation group, aged (58.23 ± 8.22) years old. The swallowing care ability score showed a statistically significant difference between the observation group (143.47 ± 3.96) and the control group (107.74 ± 1.43) ( t=-26.76, P<0.05). After intervention, the caregiver preparedness scale was (26.11 ± 3.81) in the observation group, and (18.35 ± 4.54) in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-4.11, P<0.05).The patients′ swallowing function rate and SWALQOL score were respectively 97.44% (38/39) and (91.41 ± 8.08) points in the observation group, and 72.97% (27/37) and (80.33 ± 4.21) points in the control group, and the difference was both statistically significant ( χ2=10.76, t=-2.54, both P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of family empowerment model could enhance the swallowing care ability and care preparedness of primary caregivers of the first-episode stroke dysphagia patients, which could further improve patients′ swallowing function and life quality.

Objective:To juxtapose laparoscopic cholecystectomy combined with common bile duct exploration and stone extraction (LC+ LCBDE) against endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography/sphincterotomy with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC+ ERCP/EST) in the therapeutic context of acute biliary pancreatitis.Methods:The clinical data of patients with acute biliary pancreatitis in Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Datong Third People's Hospital from January 2017 to January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 44 patients were inrolled, including 23 males and 21 females, with the age of (60.6±11.7) years. Based on different treatment approaches, the patients were divided into the LC+ LCBDE group ( n=33) and the LC+ ERCP group ( n=11, LC+ ERCP/EST). Total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), blood amylase, operation time, postoperative hospitalization stays, total hospitalization cost, postoperative anal exhaust time, and postoperative complications (bile leakage, fever, bleeding) were compared between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences in preoperative total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, ALT, AST, and blood amylase between LC+ ERCP group and LC+ LCBDE groups (all P>0.05). In LC+ LCBDE group, operation time was 110.0 (96.3, 147.5) min, postoperative hospitalization time was 9.0 (7.5, 11.0) d, postoperative exhaust time was 2.0 (1.0, 2.0) d, and in LC+ LCBDE group, operation time was 60.0 (32.0, 65.0) min, postoperative hospitalization time was 7.0 (4.0, 8.0) d, postoperative exhaust time was 1.0 (1.0, 1.0) d. Comparisons with LC+ LCBDE group, LC+ ERCP group had shorter postoperative hospitalization stay and earlier postoperative exhaust time, the total hospitalization cost of LC+ LCBDE group was 23 829.3 (21 779.6, 27 221.9) yuan, which was higher than 36 894.8 (31 963.5, 41 172.2) yuan in LC+ ERCP group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Comparison of postoperative total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, ALT and AST between LC+ ERCP group and LC+ LCBDE group, with no significant difference(all P>0.05). No postoperative complications such as bile leakage, residual stones, fever and bleeding occurred in both groups. Conclusion:Compared with LC+ ERCP/EST, LC+ LCBDE in the treatment of acute biliary pancreatitis, although the operation time and hospital stay are longer, but the total hospitalization cost is less, there is no need for multiple operations, and it can be used as the first choice for acute biliary pancreatitis.

Objective:To establish a computer-aided design and 3D printing system for precise implantation of micro implant anchorage, and accurately calibrate the position and direction of micro implant implantation.Methods:A retrospective selection was conducted on 15 patients (30 in total) who underwent micro implant implantation surgery from the Department of Stomatology, the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University from November 2019 to November 2021, including 6 males and 9 females, aged (17.1±6.3)years old. The preoperative patient was photographed with cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) and the collected DICOM data format was output. A 3D scan was performed on the patient′s preoperative analysis model to obtain the STL file of the model scan. The CBCT data and model data were fitted and matched using 3Shape Implant Studio software, and the thickness of the guide plate, the amount of undercut compensation, and the size of the key component collar were designed. The 3D printer was used for printing after resizing. Using the assist method to implant micro implants, CBCT was taken postoperatively to compare the preoperative design with the postoperative results.Results:After fitting the postoperative CBCT with the designed CBCT of the micro implant, it was found that the micro implant was consistent with the preoperative design, maintained a safe distance and parallel to the adjacent tooth root, and did not damage the maxillary sinus and other areas. No detachment of the micro implant anchorage was observed 1 or 3 months after surgery. The application of assisted micro implant anchorage 3D guide plate was reliable, with accurate implantation position and direction, and can be implanted in most parts of the oral cavity.Conclusions:The use of computer-aided design and 3D printing system to create an assistive micro implant anchorage 3D guide plate can accurately locate the position and direction of the micro implant, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective:To analyze the horizontal scientific research projects from 2015 to 2019 by the provincial Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in China, and to compare the regional differences, in order to provide the suggestion on the scientific management of CDC.Methods:The horizontal scientific research projects from 2015 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed by questionnaire survey. Multiple linear regression models were adopted to examine the trend, and variance analyses were used to test the differences in horizontal scientific research projects among the Eastern, Central, and Western regions.Results:From 2015 to 2019, provincial CDC have received RMB 124.3 million of horizontal scientific research project funds totally, of which 51.9% were funded by enterprises, and 86.9% were undertaken by provincial CDC themselves. There were no statistical significance in the change of research project funds obtained by provincial CDC ( F=0.46, P = 0.764) during this period.The number of horizontal scientific research projects undertook or participated by provincial CDC in the Eastern region were more than that of the Central and Western region ( F = 5.85, P = 0.004; F = 5.03, P = 0.008). Conclusions:The horizontal scientific research projects obtained by the provincial CDC remained stable in recent years while distribution was unbalanced in the region areas. It is suggested to innovate the management mode of scientific research projects with strengthening the trans-agency, trans-department and trans-regional cooperation.

Background::Previous studies have shown that inflammation plays an important role in intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS). The platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) has recently emerged as a potential inflammatory biomarker. This study aimed to explore the association of the PLR with ICAS in a Chinese Han population.Methods::A total of 2134 participants (518 with ICAS, 1616 without ICAS) were enrolled in this study. ICAS was defined as atherosclerotic stenosis >50% or the occlusion of several main intracranial arteries. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to assess the association of the PLR with ICAS. Additional subgroup analyses were performed according to age (<60 vs. ≥ 60 years) and acute ischemic stroke. Results::Multivariate regression analysis showed that a high PLR was associated with a higher risk of ICAS in all participants ( P < 0.001). Compared with the lowest quartile, the fourth PLR quartile was significantly associated with ICAS (OR 1.705, 95% confidence interval 1.278–2.275, P < 0.001). In the subgroups stratified by age, an association between the PLR and ICAS was found in the late-life group ( P < 0.001), but not in the mid-life group ( P = 0.650). In the subgroups stratified by acute ischemic stroke, the relationship between an elevated PLR and a higher risk of ICAS remained unchanged (stroke group, P < 0.001; non-stroke group, P = 0.027). Conclusions::An elevated PLR was associated with a higher risk of ICAS in a Chinese Han population. The PLR might serve as a potential biomarker for ICAS in the elderly population.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of esmolol on the expression of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (p-ERK1/2) during cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods:Forty-eight clean-grade healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, were allocated into 3 groups ( n=16 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (Sham group), cerebral I/R group (I/R group) and esmolol group (E group). Cerebral I/R was induced by 3 cycles of 20-min occlusion of bilateral common carotid arteries followed by 10-min reperfusion in anesthetized rats.Esmolol 200 g·kg -1·min -1 was intravenously infused for 1 h starting from 30 min before ischemia, and the model was established after 30-min infusion in E group.The equal volume of normal saline was given at 30 min before ischemia in I/R group.Bilateral common carotid arteries were only isolated but not clamped, and the equal volume of normal saline was given after isolating bilateral common carotid arteries in Sham group.Learning and memory function was tested by Morris water maze test before ischemia and at 1, 3 and 7 days of reperfusion.Rats were sacrificed after Morris water maze test, and the hippocampus was excised for determination of wet to dry weight ratio (W/D ratio), permeability of blood-brain barrier (using Evans blue method), expression of ERK1/2 mRNA (by real-time polymerase chain reaction ), and expression of p-ERK1/2 (by Western blot). Results:Compared with Sham group, the escape latency and swimming distance were significantly prolonged at 1, 3 and 7 days of reperfusion, the W/D ratio and EB content in brain tissues were increased, and the expression of ERK1/2 mRNA and p-ERK1/2 was up-regulated in I/R and E groups ( P<0.05). Compared with I/R group, the escape latency and swimming distance were significantly shortened at 1, 3 and 7 days of reperfusion, the W/D ratio and EB content in brain tissues were decreased, and the expression of ERK1/2 mRNA and p-ERK1/2 was down-regulated in E group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The mechanism by which esmolol alleviates cerebral I/R injury and improves cognitive function is related to inhibiting the up-regulated expression of ERK1/2 in rats.

Objective: To compare the effect of intranasal dexmedetomidine and oral chloral hydrate in deep sedation of children. Methods: The Pubmed, EMBase, CENTRAL (Issue 4, 2018), Web of science, CBM, Wanfang Data, CNKI and VIP databases from the inception to January 2019 were searched. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) with dexmedetomidine and chloral hydrate as interventions were included and the data were analyzed by RevMam 5.3 and Stata 12.0 software. The success rate of deep sedation, the indicator of sedation onset time, the recovery time, the incidence of vomiting and bradycardia were compared. Results: A total of 7 RCTs involving 1 007 patients were included for analysis. The results showed that the success rate of deep sedation (OR=2.55, 95%CI:1.46-4.44, P<0.01) and the incidence of bradycardia (OR=4.42, 95%CI:1.82-10.74, P<0.01) in the dexmedetomidine nasal group were significantly higher than those in the chloral hydrate oral group. The recovery time was significantly shorter (MD=-16.41, 95%CI:-21.54-11.28, P<0.01) and the incidence rate of vomiting (OR=0.04, 95%CI:0.01-0.17, P<0.01) in dexmedetomidine nasal group was significantly lower than those in the chloral hydrate oral group. There was no significant difference in the indicator of sedation onset time (MD=-0.47, 95%CI:-2.71-1.22, P=0.46). Conclusion Compared with the traditional oral chloral hydrate, intranasal dexmedetomidine has a higher sedation success rate and shorter recovery time after sedation with a lower incidence of nausea and vomiting.
