Objective:To explore the influence of LIN28B on chemosensitivity of colon cancer by regulating GSH.Methods:Functional enrichment analysis of LIN28B target genes was performed using database. The primary tumor tissues of colon cancer patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy at Department of Gastroenterology, Peking University International Hospital from Nov 2017 to May 2020 were collected, and their LIN28B levels were detected by immunohistochemistry. According to the tumor regression grade, they were divided into chemotherapy sensitive group and chemotherapy resistant group, and the difference of LIN28B expression between the two groups was compared. LIN28B overexpression and knockdown colon cancer cell lines were constructed, and the effect of LIN28B on the chemosensitivity of colon cancer cells was detected by MTT assay. Double luciferase reporting experiment and Western blot were used to detect the direct binding and regulation of LIN28B to mRNA of four GSH related enzymes. At the same time, the regulation of LIN28B on total GSH and reduced GSH was tested. Finally, by detecting the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) γ-H2AX and Comet assay to analyze the potential impact of LIN28B on genomic instability.Results:GSH-related enzymes were highly enriched in LIN28B target genes. The expression of LIN28B was heterogeneous in colon cancer patients. Compared with the low expression group, the average survival time of patients with high expression of LIN28B was significantly increased [(50.2±2.9 )months vs. (31.1±4.0 )months, P=0.001], and the proportion of tumor regression grade 0-1 was significantly different (48.0% vs. 16.0%, P=0.032). The expression level of LIN28B in chemotherapy sensitive group was significantly higher than that in drug resistant group ( P<0.01). LIN28B overexpression significantly increased the chemosensitivity of HCT116 cells to 5-fluorouracil (5-Fu) and oxaliplatin (L-OPH). The synthesis and activity of GSH were further inhibited (all P<0.01). At the same time, the ROS level of LIN28B overexpression cells was significantly increased after treatment with L-OPH. The level of γ-H2AX was significantly increased, and the content of comet tail DNA was also significantly increased ( P<0.01). Conclusion:LIN28B may increase the chemosensitivity of colon cancer cells by directly inhibiting the expression of GSH related enzymes, resulting in the decrease of GSH synthesis and activity, the increase of ROS level and genomic instability.

Objective The high post-surgery recurrence rate of endometriosis(EMs)has emerged as a challenge in the long-term manaagement of the condition.This study is aimed at investigating the mechanisms of Neiyiting(NYT)decoction in preventing postoperative recurrence of EMs.Methods An animal model of EMs postoperative recurrence and a model of endometrial stromal cells(hEM15A)cocultured with macrophages(RAW 264.7 cell line)were established for both in vivo and in vitro experiments.An autotransplantation method was used to establish a rat model of EMs.The rats were divided into 4 groups(6 rats per group)and received the corresponding treatments:a Model group receiving distilled water,a Gestrinone group receiving gestrinone at 0.325 mg/kg,a low-dose NYT(NYT-L)group receiving NYT decoction at 5.04 g/(kg-d),and a high-dose NYT(NYT-H)group receiving NYT decoction at 10.08 g/(kg-d).The treatment was administered for 3 weeks via intragastric gavage.In addition,6 SD rats were randomly selected for the control group(Control group),and were given distilled water for 3 weeks via intragastric gavage.The sizes and pathological changes of recurrent lesions in EMs rats were observed.Immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR were performed to assess the expression of M1 macrophage marker CD86 protein and mRNA in vivo.Additionally,immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR were used to assess the expression of indicator proteins related to the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1(TREM1)/Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4)/nuclear factor kappa B(NF-κB)signaling pathway and mRNA.The proliferation of hEM15A cells in the coculture experiment was observed.Flow cytometry was performed to determine the polarization of RAW264.7 macrophages,and qRT-PCR was used to determine the expression levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)and interleukin 1β(IL-1β)mRNA.Western blot was performed to determine the expression of signaling pathway-related indicator proteins in vitro.ELISA was performed to determine the levels of inflammatory factors in vitro.Results Compared with the Model group,the volume of recurrent lesions in the NYT-H group was reduced(P＜0.01).Findings from the macrophage M1 polarization assessment showed that the expression levels of CD86 protein and mRNA in the recurrent lesions of the Model group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.01).The expression levels of CD86 protein and mRNA in the recurrent lesions of the NYT-H group were lower than those of the Model group(P＜0.01).In addition,the RAW 264.7 cell experiment further verified that NYT decoction could reduce the number of CD86-positive macrophages induced by plasmids overexpressing TREM1 and reduce the expression of IL-1β and iNOS mRNA(P＜0.01).The results of the hEM15A cell proliferation assay showed that NYT decoction down-regulated KI-67 protein expression in hEM15A cells induced by macrophage M1 polarization(P＜0.01).The results of TREM1/TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway showed that the protein and mRNA expression levels of TREM1,TLR4,and NF-κB in the recurrent lesions of the Model group were higher than those of the control group(P＜0.01).Compared with those in the Model group,the protein and mRNA expression levels of TREM1,TLR4,and NF-κB in the recurrent lesions of the NYT-H group were lower(P＜0.01).In addition,the coculture experiment of RAW264.7 and hEM15A cells further confirmed that NYT decoction reduced the expression of TREM1,TLR4,and P-P65 proteins(P＜0.01).Conclusion NYT decoction can inhibit macrophage M1 polarization through the TREM1/TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway,improve the inflammation level,and inhibit the formation of ectopic endometrial lesions,thereby preventing postoperative recurrence of EMs.

Objective:To investigate serum vitamin A and vitamin D status in children aged 2-<7 years in 20 cities in China.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 2 924 healthy children aged 2-<7 years were recruited from September 2018 to September 2019 from 20 cities in China, categorized by age groups of 2-<3 years, 3-<5 years, and 5-<7 years. The demographic and economic characteristics and health-related information of the enrolled children were investigated. Body weight and height were measured by professional staff members. The serum vitamin A and vitamin D levels were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Chi-square test and Logistic regression were applied to analyze the association between vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency as well as their underlying impact factors.Results:The age of the 2 924 enrolled children was 4.33 (3.42, 5.17) years. There were 1 726 males (59.03%) and 1 198 females (40.97%). The prevalences of vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency in enrolled children were 2.19% (64/2 924) and 3.52% (103/2 924), respectively, and the insufficiency rates were 29.27% (856/2 924) and 22.20% (649/2 924), respectively. Children with both vitamin A and vitamin D deficiencies or insufficiencies were found in 10.50% (307/2 924) of cases. Both vitamin A ( χ2=7.91 and 8.06, both P=0.005) and vitamin D ( χ2=71.35 and 115.10, both P<0.001) insufficiency rates were higher in children aged 3-<5 and 5-<7 years than those in children aged 2-<3 years. Vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation in the last 3 months was a protective factor for vitamin A and D deficiency and insufficiency, respectively ( OR=0.68 and 0.22, 95% CI 0.49-0.95 and 0.13-0.40, both P<0.05). The rates of vitamin A and D insufficiency was higher in children with annual household incomes <60 000 RMB than in those with annual household incomes ≥60 000 RMB ( χ2=34.11 and 10.43, both P<0.01). Northwest and Southwest had the highest rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency in children aged 2-<7 yeas, respectively ( χ2=93.22 and 202.54, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Among 20 cities in China, children aged 2-<7 years experience high rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency, which are affected by age, family economic level, vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation, and regional economic level. The current results suggest that high level of attention should be paid to vitamin A and vitamin D nutritional status of preschool children.

Objective:To explore the impact on analgesic efficacy and safety of esketamine as an adductor canal block adjuvant in knee arthroplasty.Methods:The study was a prospective, single center, randomized controlled trial. The subjects were patients who received knee arthroplasty in Zhangjiakou First hospital from October 2021 to October 2023. The patients were randomly divided into trial group and control group using a random number table method. The patients in the both groups received general anesthesia and postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA). The patients in the trial group were injected with 0.375% ropivacaine combined with esmketamine, while those in the control group were only injected with 0.375% ropivacaine. The postoperative vital signs, quadriceps femoris muscle strength, resting and dynamic visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score, use of PCIA, and incidence of postoperative adverse reactions in patients between the 2 groups were compared.Results:A total of 120 patients were included in this study, with 60 cases in each group. There were no significant differences in heart rate, mean arterial pressure, respiratory rate, and body temperature in patients between the trial group and the control group at 24 and 48 hours after operation (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences in quadriceps femoris muscle strength at 12, 24 and 48 hours after operation (all P>0.05). At rest, the VAS pain score at 12 hours after operation in the trial group was lower than that in the control group [(2.89±0.49) points vs. (3.36±0.23) points], the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). In the active state, the VAS scores at 12 and 24 hours after operation in the trial group were lower than those in the control group [(3.78±0.41) points vs. (4.11±0.45) points, (3.79±0.56) points vs. (4.19±0.69) points], the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The number of times of PCIA compression 24 hours after operation in the experimental group was less than that in the control group [(5.35±1.03) times vs. (7.89±1.34) times], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05), the sensory block time in the experimental group was longer than that in the control group [(488.26±57.75) min vs. (92.26±65.15) min], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in total incidence of adverse reactions including nausea, vomiting, urinary retention, dizziness, drowsiness, delirium and hallucination in patients between the 2 groups within 1 week after operation (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Esketamine as an adjuvant of ropivacaine for adductor block can alleviate the pain level of patients undergoing knee arthroplasty, and it has good safety.

Objective:To compare the lymph node tracing of indocyanine green (ICG) and nanocarbon in laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.Methods:Fifty-two patients with right colon cancer were randomly divided into two groups: ICG group and nanocarbon group at Peking University International Hospital between Oct 2020 and Jul 2022. Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping and standard oncologic resection was performed. The micrometastasis was to detect when the routine SLN pathological test was negative.Results:In ICG group, the detection rate of SLN was 100%, the sensitivity was 93%, the false negative rate was 7%, and the accuracy was 96%,which were better than nanocarbon group (92%,57%,43%,77%). The number of SLN and positive SLN detected in ICG group were significantly higher than nanocarbon group [(3.2±0.7) vs. (2.6±1.1), t=4.424, P=0.020; (1.2±1.2) vs.(0.5±0.8), t=15.176, P=0.013]. The SLN biopsy accuracy of patients with BMI ≥24 kg/m 2 and tumor diameter ≥3 cm in ICG group was significantly higher than nanocarbon group (90% vs. 44%, χ 2=7.935, P=0.005; 90% vs.57%, χ 2=4.309, P=0.038). The detection rate of micrometastasis in SLN of ICG group was significantly different from nanocarbon group (35% vs. 15%, χ 2=5.853, P=0.016). Conclusion:ICG fluorescence imaging is superior to nanocarbon in SLN biopsy during laparoscopic radical right hemicolectomy, especially when patients' BMI ≥24 kg/m 2 and tumor diameter ≥3 cm.

The adjacent anatomy of the pelvis is complicated, with digestive, urinary, reproductive and other organs as well as important blood vessels and nerves. Therefore, accurate resection of pelvic tumors and precise reconstruction of defects after resection are extremely difficult. The development of medical 3D printing technology provides new ideas for precise resection and personalized reconstruction of pelvic tumors. The “triune” application of 3D printing personalized lesion model, osteotomy guide plate and reconstruction prosthesis in pelvic tumor limb salvage reconstruction treatment has achieved good clinical results. However, the current lack of normative guidance standards such as preparation and application of 3D printing personalized lesion model, osteotomy guide plate and reconstruction prosthesis restricts its promotion and application. The formulation of this consensus provides normative guidance for 3D printing personalized pelvic tumor limb salvage reconstruction treatment.

Objective:To explore the establishment of radiation-induced heart damage (RIDH) SD rat models caused by irradiation of 15Gy/3f and the changes in early detection indicators, and evaluate the effect of irradiation combined with recombinant human endostatin (Endostar).Methods:75 adult male SD rats were randomly divided into the blank control group (C group), Endostar group (E group), 25Gy irradiation group (MHD 25 group), 15Gy irradiation group (MHD 15 group) and 15Gy irradiation combined with Endostar group (MHD 15+ E group), respectively. Blood sample was taken to measure the CK, CK-MB, LDH and CRP at 24h, 48h and 15d after corresponding interventions. After cardiac echocardiography at 1, 3 and 6 months, 5 rats in each group were randomly sacrificed and myocardial tissues were collected for HE and Masson staining. Two-way ANOVA was employed for statistical analysis. Results:Compared with group C, myocardial fibrosis were observed in the MHD 15 group at 6 months ( P<0.05), which occurred later than that in the MHD 25 group. Ejection fraction (EF) and fractional shortening (FS) were significantly decreased after 3 months in each irradiation group (all P<0.05), whereas the degree of decrease was similar among all groups (all P>0.05). The expression levels of myocardial enzymes and inflammatory cytokines did not significantly differ among different groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In the early stage, exposure to 15Gy/3f irradiation can cause cardiac function damage in SD rat hearts, such as the reduction of EF and FS, and even lead to myocardial fibrosis in the late stage, which is delayed and less severe than high-dose irradiation. Irradiation combined with Endostar has no significant effect on radiation myocardial injury in rats.
