Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of fractional flow reserve (FFR) based on optical coherence tomography (OCT) for coronary functional ischemia, and to investigate the feasibility of synchronously obtaining Doppler blood flow velocity information with the help of OCT technology.Methods:This study was a single-center, prospective, self-controlled clinical study on coronary heart disease patients who underwent OCT and FFR assessment at Department of Cardiology, the Second Hospital of Jilin University from January 2024 to February 2025. Linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the correlation and consistency between OCT-FFR and FFR. With FFR≤0.80 as the gold standard for judging whether the target vessel was ischemic, the diagnostic performance of OCT-FFR was evaluated, and the diagnostic value of OCT-FFR for significant coronary artery ischemia was assessed using subject operating characteristic curves. Blood flow OCT data were analyzed by Doppler processing algorithm to obtain information on coronary blood flow velocity.Results:A total of 31 vessels from 28 patients were analyzed, the correlation coefficient r between OCT-FFR and FFR of the 31 vessels was 0.84 ( P<0.001). With FFR as the gold standard to determine whether a coronary artery is ischemic, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value for OCT-FFR was 93.55%, 75.00%, 100.00%, 1.00, 0.92. In clinical practice, Doppler OCT was used for the first time to obtain information on coronary blood flow velocity. Conclusion:OCT-FFR had an excellent correlation and consistency with FFR in judging whether there is coronary artery ischemia. The feasibility of the simultaneous acquisition of OCT-FFR and Doppler flow velocity information in coronary stenosis was preliminarily verified.

Objective:To evaluate the expression level of hsa-miR-422a in hypertrophic scars and to identify the target genes of hsa-miR-422a along with their biological functions using bioinformatics approaches.Methods:From June 2020 to December 2020, tissue samples of 3 hypertrophic scar and 3 normal skin were collected from patients (3 males, 3 females, aged 20-42 years) in Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. Primary fibroblasts were isolated and cultured. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed to quantify the expression of hsa-miR-422a. To construct a ceRNA network, starbase and Target Scandata bases were utilized to predict genes as well as long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) that may sponge hsa-miR-422a. GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were conducted on the target genes of hsa-miR-422a; protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed to identify the hub genes whose functions were predicted by functional enrichment analyses. The expression of hub genes was validated through real-time quantitative PCR in hypertrophic scars.Results:The expression of hsa-miR-422a was significantly lower in the hypertrophic scar tissue samples and fibroblasts compared to that in the normal skin ( P<0.05). 133 target genes as well as 1033 lncRNAs were predicted by starBase and TargetScandata bases and used to construct an hsa-miR-422a-centered ceRNA network. PPI networks of the target genes revealed 10 hub genes, including MAPK1, GRB2, and IGF1R, which were discovered to be related to protein serine/threonine/tyrosine kinase activity, ubiquitin protein ligase binding, fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling pathway, muscle cell proliferation, and many others; besides, they may be involved in FoxO, mTOR, Toll-like receptor, Ras, MAPK, PI3K-Akt signaling pathways and signaling pathways regulating pluripotency of stem cells. Three hub genes (MAPK1, GRB2, and IGF1R) were significantly upregulated in hypertrophic scars ( P<0.05). Conclusions:hsa-miR-422a is significantly downregulated in the hypertrophic scars and may target hub genes such as MAPK1 in ceRNA networks, ultimately modulating hypertrophic scar formation.

Spinal muscular atrophy, lower extremity-predominant, 2A (SMALED2A) is a form of spinal muscular atrophy, which predominantly affects muscles of the lower extremity, characterized by early childhood onset of muscle weakness and atrophy. This disorder is caused by mutation in the BICD2 gene. This paper reports a case of SMALED2A with recurrent skin ulceration of both feet. Whole exome sequencing of this case revealed a chr9∶95527083_A>AGCC insertion mutation in the 5’UTR of BICD2 gene.

In clinical application, a microneedle system that continuously delivers drugs is of great value for the delivery of some vaccines and hormone drugs. In this study, a controlled-release chitosan-based microneedle array (PVA/CS-MN) was designed, combining microneedle patches with drugs for controlled-release of drugs. Here we report the optimization of the preparation process of PVA/CS-MN. The appearance, morphology, mechanical properties, dissolution and swelling properties, and in vitro penetration properties of the MN arrays were characterized. The PVA/CS-MN prepared by the optimal process showed good morphology and mechanical properties. PVA/CS-MN can smoothly open microchannels on the skin and achieve controllable dissolution and swelling functions. Ascorbic acid (l-ascorbic acid) was used as a model drug to prepare a Vc-PVA/CS-MN. In vitro transdermal diffusion experiments showed that the Vc-PVA/CS-MN released about 57% of the drug within 1 h. About 66.7% of the drug was slowly released within 12 h, and a total of 92% of the drug was released after 7 days. The controllable sustained-release properties and excellent drug delivery efficiency of PVA/CS-MN provide a new option for sustained transdermal drug delivery.
