Objective:To investigate the effects of gelatin methacrylate anhydride (GelMA) hydrogel loaded with small extracellular vesicles derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs-sEVs) in the treatment of full-thickness skin defect wounds in mice.Methods:This study was an experimental study. hUCMSCs-sEVs were extracted by ultracentrifugation, their morphology was observed through transmission electron microscope, and the expression of CD9, CD63, tumor susceptibility gene 101 (TSG101), and calnexin was detected by Western blotting. The human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), the 3 rd and 4 th passages of human epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs) and human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs) were all divided into blank control group (routinely cultured) and hUCMSC-sEV group (cultured with the cell supernatant containing hUCMSCs-sEVs). The cell scratch test was performed and the cell migration rates at 6, 12, and 24 h after scratching were calculated, the cell Transwell assay was performed and the number of migration cells at 12 h after culture was calculated, and the proportion of proliferating cells was detected by 5-acetylidene-2'-deoxyuridine and Hoechst staining at 24 h after culture, with sample numbers being all 3. The simple GelMA hydrogel and the GelMA hydrogel loaded with hUCMSCs-sEVs (hereinafter referred to as hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel) were prepared. Then the micromorphology of 2 kinds of hydrogels was observed under scanning electron microscope, the distribution of hUCMSCs-sEVs was observed by laser scanning confocal microscope, and the cumulative release rates of hUCMSCs-sEVs at 0 (immediately), 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 d after soaking hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) were measured and calculated by protein colorimetric quantification ( n=3). Twenty-four 6-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were divided into PBS group, hUCMSC-sEV alone group, GelMA hydrogel alone group, and hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel group according to the random number table, with 6 mice in each group, and after the full-thickness skin defect wounds on the back of mice in each group were produced, the wounds were performed with PBS injection, hUCMSC-sEV suspenson injection, simple GelMA coverage, and hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel coverage, respectively. Wound healing was observed on post injury day (PID) 0 (immediately), 4, 8, and 12, and the wound healing rates on PID 4, 8, and 12 were calculated, and the wound tissue was collected on PID 12 for hematoxylin-eosin staining to observe the structure of new tissue, with sample numbers being both 6. Results:The extracted hUCMSCs-sEVs showed a cup-shaped structure and expressed CD9, CD63, and TSG101, but barely expressed calnexin. At 6, 12, and 24 h after scratching, the migration rates of HEKs (with t values of 25.94, 20.98, and 20.04, respectively), HDFs (with t values of 3.18, 5.68, and 4.28, respectively), and HUVECs (with t values of 4.32, 19.33, and 4.00, respectively) in hUCMSC-sEV group were significantly higher than those in blank control group ( P<0.05). At 12 h after culture, the numbers of migrated HEKs, HDFs, and HUVECs in hUCMSC-sEV group were 550 ±23, 235 ±9, and 856 ±35, respectively, which were significantly higher than 188 ±14, 97 ±6, and 370 ±32 in blank control group (with t values of 22.95, 23.13, and 17.84, respectively , P<0.05). At 24 h after culture, the proportions of proliferating cells of HEKs, HDFs, and HUVECs in hUCMSC-sEV group were significantly higher than those in blank control group (with t values of 22.00, 13.82, and 32.32, respectively, P<0.05). The inside of simple GelMA hydrogel showed a loose and porous sponge-like structure, and hUCMSCs-sEVs was not observed in it. The hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel had the same sponge-like structure, and hUCMSCs-sEVs were uniformly distributed in clumps. The cumulative release rate curve of hUCMSCs-sEVs from hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel tended to plateau at 2 d after soaking, and the cumulative release rate of hUCMSCs-sEVs was (59.2±1.8)% at 12 d after soaking. From PID 0 to 12, the wound areas of mice in the 4 groups gradually decreased. On PID 4, 8, and 12, the wound healing rates of mice in hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel group were significantly higher than those in the other 3 groups ( P<0.05); the wound healing rates of mice in GelMA hydrogel alone group and hUCMSC-sEV alone group were significantly higher than those in PBS group ( P<0.05). On PID 8 and 12, the wound healing rates of mice in hUCMSC-sEV alone group were significantly higher than those in GelMA hydrogel alone group ( P<0.05). On PID 12, the wounds of mice in hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel group showed the best wound epithelization, loose and orderly arrangement of dermal collagen, and the least number of inflammatory cells, while the dense arrangement of dermal collagen and varying degrees of inflammatory cell infiltration were observed in the wounds of mice in the other 3 groups. Conclusions:hUCMSCs-sEVs can promote the migration and proliferation of HEKs, HDFs, and HUVECs which are related to skin wound healing, and slowly release in GelMA hydrogel. The hUCMSC-sEV/GelMA hydrogel as a wound dressing can significantly improve the healing speed of full-thickness skin defect wounds in mice.

AIM: To investigate the effect of low-dose aspirin on primary prevention of non-fatal myocardial and cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS: From January 2015 to December 2016,40-90 years old patients with type 2 diabetes were treated in the Department of Endocrinology of Yijishan Hospital of Wannan Medical College for more than 2 times (the interval of hospitalization was more than 3 months) , we use the hospital's his system to search out-patient and in-patient files, patients were divided into aspirin group and non-aspirin group according to the use of low-dose aspirin within 1 year after the first visit, the basic data of the first visit were collected: name, sex, age, course of diabetes, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, patients were recorded for laboratory markers including fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, triglyceride, total cholesterol, Low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, creatinine, and platelets, complications such as hypertension, coronary heart disease, atrial fibrillation, hyperlipidemia, diabetic nephropathy and arteriosclerosis were recorded. A Chi square test and a Cox proportional hazard model were used to compare baseline data and cerebrovascular disease after the first use of aspirin. RESULTS: Of the 4 176 patients, 2 137 were type 2 diabetes, 417 were eligible for admission, including 198 males, 219 females, 224 aspirin users and 193 non-users. There was no significant difference in the incidence of cerebral infarction between the aspirin group and the non-aspirin group (χ2=0.820, P=0.365). The incidence of non-fatal myocardial infarction was lower than that of the aspirin non-aspirin group (χ2=10.099, P=0.01) , the incidence of massive hemorrhage was significantly higher than that of aspirin-free group χ2=5.425, P=0.020) . In a subgroup analysis of aspirin use, patients younger than 60 years of age had a lower incidence of ischemic stroke (cerebral infarction) and a risk ratio of 0.428 (95%CI: 0.255-0.719, P=0.001) compared with patients older than 60 years of age, the incidence of cerebral infarction was higher in female patients with a risk ratio of 1.574 (95%CI: 1.018-2.434, P=0.041). CONCLUSION: In this study of patients with type 2 diabetes, low-dose aspirin reduced the incidence of nonfatal myocardial infarction but had no significant effect on the incidence of nonfatal ischemic stroke, and significantly increase the incidence of major bleeding events, we should reconsider the use of low-dose aspirin as a potential benefit of nonfatal cerebral infarction in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of gastrin?17( G?17) and pepsinogen( PG) for gastric cancer. Methods A multicenter cross?sectional study of patients with continuous stomach discomfort from four centers including Changhai Hospital Affiliated to Second Military Medical University, the First Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University, Qinghai Provincial People′s Hospital and the First Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University of Chinese Medicine from May 2014 to September 2015 was conducted. Before gastroscopy, fasting serum gatrin?17 and pepsinogen were analyzed by enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The efficacy of G?17 and PG were evaluated according to endoscopic and pathological results. Results Based on the results of the pathological diagnosis, 1 122 cases were enrolled and divided into chronic atrophic gastritis group ( 548 cases ) , chronic non?atrophic gastritis group ( 370 cases), and gastric cancer group(204 cases). Serum G?17 and PGⅡ levels significantly increased(P<0?05) and PGR significantly decreased( P<0?05) in gastric cancer group compared with other groups. There was no significant difference in PGⅠlevel among three groups. The cut?off value of G?17 to diagnose gastric cancer was 7 pmol/L. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of G?17 for gastric cancer were 59?31%, 70?59%, 68?54%, 30?95% and 88?65% respectively. The cut?off value of PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ( PGR ) to diagnose gastric cancer was 7. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of PGR for gastric cancer were 41?18%, 83?01%, 75?40%, 35?00% and 86?39% respectively. The cut?off value of PGⅡto diagnose gastric cancer was 10 μg/L. The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of PGⅡfor gastric cancer were 73?53%, 53?05%, 56?77%, 25?82% and 90?02% respectively. If G?17>7 pmol/L and PGR<7 was regarded as the cut?off value of diagnosis of gastric cancer, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 25?00%, 91?29%, 79?23%, 38?93%and 84?56%respectively. If G?17>7 pmol/L and PGⅡ>10μg/L was regarded as the cut?off value, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 48?04%, 79?74%, 73?98%, 34?51% and 87?35% respectively. If PGR<7 and PGⅡ>10 μg/L was regarded as the cut?off value, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 33?82%, 84?86%, 75?58%, 33?17% and 85?23% respectively. Based on logistic regression analysis of the independent variables of high serum G?17 value(>7 pmol/L), low serum PGR value(<7) and high serum PGⅡvalue(>10 μg/L), their OR value were 2?592, 2?237 and 1?864 respectively, and high serum G?17 value showed the highest risk of gastric cancer. Conclusion High serum G?17 and PGⅡ, low PGR are indicators of gastric cancer. Combination of G?17 and PGR has the best diagnostic value for gastric cacer. Gastric cancer can be screened in large scale by combining G?17 and PGR in order to improve the early diagnostic rate of gastric cancer and reduce the mortality of gastric cancer in our country.
