Aim To explore the effect and mechanism of the artesunate(ART)on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods The cell lines MHCC-97H and HCC-LM3 were used to be detected.MTT and clone formation were used to determine the cell proliferation;Wound healing was used to detect the cell migration;Transwell was used to test the cell invasion.Flow-cy-tometry was used to detect cell apoptosis and cell cy-cle.RNA-seq and qRT-PCR was used to detect the genes expression.Results The proliferation,migra-tion and invasion of treated cells were obviously inhibi-ted(P＜0.01).Moreover,the apoptosis rate in-creased significantly,so did the proportion of G2/M cells.Transcriptomic analysis identified GADD45A as a potential target of ART through RNA-sequencing da-ta,and suggested that ART might induce apoptosis and cell cycle arrest through regulating the expression of GADD45A.In addition,the results of mechanism studies and signaling analysis suggested that GADD45A had interaction with its upstream gene NACC1(nucle-us accumbens associated 1).Moreover,after ART treatment,the expressions of GADD45A and NACC1 were changed significantly.Conclusion ART may be a potential drug to resist HCC by affecting the expres-sion of GADD45A and its upstream gene NACC1,which provides a new drug,a new direction and a new method for the clinical treatment of HCC.

Objective To explore and compare the clinical efficacy of orthopedic robot assisted femoral neck system(FNS)and traditional manual FNS in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and young people.Methods The clinical data of 62 consecutive patients with femoral neck fracture and age less than 65 years old admitted to the Intelligent Or-thopaedic Department of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether orthopedic robot-assisted surgery the patients were divided into two groups:30 patients aged 34 to 56 years old were treated with orthopedic robot assisted FNS internal fixation after closed or limited open reduction(experimental group);32 pa-tients aged 33 to 54 years old underwent FNS internal fixation after closed or limited open reduction(control group).The age,gender,time from injury to admission,average hospital stay,surgical duration,intraoperative bleeding volume,and intraopera-tive fluoroscopy frequency of two groups of patients were analyzed and compared.The hip joint function in both groups of pa-tients was evaluated using the Harris hip joint scoring standard at 6 months after surgery.Results All 62 patients with femoral neck fractures successfully completed the surgery.There was no significant difference(P＞0.05)between the experimental group and the control group in terms of baseline data such as age,gender,time from injury to admission,time from admission to surgery and the intraoperative bleeding.The surgical duration of the experimental group was significantly shorter than that of the control group[42.1(28.5,50.7)min vs.53.4(36.9,62.5)min,Z=-2.338,P=0.019].The intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy frequency of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group[8.0(6.0,11.0)times vs.15.0(13.0,17.0)times,Z=-5.960,P＜0.001].In terms of postoperative hip joint function,there was no significant difference in Harris score between the two groups of patients at 6-month follow-up(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with manual operation of FNS,orthopedic robot assisted FNS in the treatment of femoral neck fractures can help shorten surgical time,reduce intraop-erative fluoroscopy frequency,and have similar therapeutic effects on long-term hip joint function recovery.

Objective To explore the magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)manifestations of acute cerebral infarction(ACI)and the correlation between lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2(Lp-PLA2),cystatin C(Cys C)and short-term prognosis.Methods A total of 110 ACI patients admitted to the department of neurology in our hospital from January 1,2022 to January 1,2023 were selected as the study objects.The clinical data and multimodal MRI were collected,and the serum Lp-PLA2 and Cys C levels of patients were detected.The patients were divided into the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group according to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score 90 days after onset.The predictive value of MRI manifestations and Lp-PLA2 and Cys C levels for short-term poor prognosis was analyzed.Results There were statistically significant differences in the time from onset to admission,National Institute of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score on admission,hypertension or diabetes,coronary heart disease or atrial fibrillation of patients between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group(P<0.05).The proportions of patients with ischemic penumbra,HV positive,cortical-subcortical infarction,large perforating branch infarction,small perforating branch infarction,bilateral anterior circulation infarction,posterior circulation infarction,anterior-posterior circulation infarction,middle cerebral artery(MCA)stenosis or occlusion,both internal carotid artery(ICA)and MCA stenosis or occlusion,posterior cerebral artery(PCA)or vertebral artery(VA)stenosis or occlusion and hemorrhage transformation in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group(P<0.05).The Lp-PLA2 and Cys C levels of patients in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group(P<0.05).Small penetrating branch infarction,posterior circulation infarction,anterior-posterior circulation infarction,MCA stenosis or occlusion,both ICA and MCA stenosis or occlusion,hemorrhage transformation,serum Lp-PLA2 and Cys C had certain predictive value for patients with short-term poor prognosis(P<0.05).Conclusion MRI manifestations(ischemic penumbra,HV positivity,different types of cerebral infarction,and vascular stenosis)and serum Lp-PLA2 and Cys C levels can predict the short-term prognosis of ACI patients and provide important reference for the formulation of clinical treatment plans.

Post-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography pancreatitis(PEP)is one of the most common complications after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Numerous PEP prediction models have been established based on different statistical methods at home and abroad.The PEP prediction model,as a tool for evaluating and screening high-risk populations,can provide a basis for medical staff to find high-risk PEP patients early and take effective preventive measures.In recent years,new PEP prediction models have appeared one after another,but there is still a lack of recognized reliable prediction models in clinic.This article reviews the research status of PEP risk prediction models,aim to provide a direction for establishing a more reliable,accurate,and practical PEP risk prediction model in the later period.

Objective:This study was aimed to provide ideas for identifying the antibodies to high-frequency antigens by analyzing a female case of high-frequency antigen antibody(anti-Ku)using serological and sequencing method.Methods:The methods for identification of blood group,erythrocyte antigen,screening and identification of antibody were used to detect the blood type and antibody in the proband.The proband's serum and reagent screening cells treated with Sulfhydryl reagent were applied to judge the type and characteristics of this antibodies when reacted with the regaent screening cells or proband's serum respectively.Gene sequencing was used to determine the genotype of the proband's blood group.Results:The proband's red blood cells were determined as O type RhD positive,whose serum showed strong positive reaction to antibody-screening cells and antibody identification cells with the same intensity in saline and IAT medium,however,the self-cells showed negative effect.The Direct Antihuman Globulin of proband's red blood cells also showed weak positive reaction,and the other blood types were CcEe,Jk(a+b-),P1-,Le(a-b-),Lu(a-b+),K-,k-,Kp(a-b-).Serum of the proband treated with 2-ME still react with three groups of screening cells in IAT medium.The reaction intensity of proband's serum was also unchanged with the cells modified with papain and bromelain,but showed negative effect when the cells were treated with sulfhydryl agents including DTT and 2-ME.Gene sequencing revealed that the KEL genotype of the patient was KEL*02N.24.This patient had a rare K0 phenotype.Conclusion:The rare Kell-null blood group(also known as K0)were identified by serological and molecular tests in the proband who produced both IgG and IgM type of antibody to high-frequency antigen(anti-Ku).These two methods are of great significance in the identification of this rare blood group as well as the antibody to high frequency antigen.

Objective:To explore the therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors of induction therapy for secondary central nervous system lymphoma(SCNSL).Methods:Clinical data of patients diagnosed with SCNSL from 2010 to 2021 at Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively collected.A retrospective cohort study was performed on all and grouped patients to analyze the efficacy and survival.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to explore the adverse prognostic factors.Results:Thirty-seven diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients with secondary central involvement were included in the research.Their 2-year overall survival(OS)rate was 46.01％and median survival time was 18.1 months.The 2-year OS rates of HD-MTX group and TMZ group were 34.3％and 61％,median survival time were 8.7 and 38.3 months,and median progression-free survival time were 8.1 and 47 months,respectively.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,sex,IPI,Ann Arbor stage were correlated with patient survival time.The median survival time of patients with CD79B,KMT2D,CXCR4.ERBB2,TBL1XR1,BTG2,MYC,MYD88,and PIM1 mutations was 8.2 months,which was lower than the overall level.Conclusion:HD-MTX combined with TMZ as the first-line strategy may improve patient prognosis,and early application of gene sequencing is beneficial for evaluating prognosis.
