The auxin/indole-3-acetic acid (Aux/IAA) gene family is an important regulator for plant growth hormone signaling, involved in plant growth, development, as well as response to environmental stresses. In the present study, we identified SmIAA7 which is potentially associated with Salvia miltiorrhiza leaf development through comparatively analyzed the transcriptome data from different pinnate leaves. SmIAA7 was successfully isolated from S. miltiorrhiza using the specific primers. Then subsequent bioinformatic analysis, prokaryotic expression and purification, subcellular localization, and induction expression analysis under auxin and abiotic stress were performed. The full-length of SmIAA7 contained an ORF of 684 bp encoding a protein of 227 amino acid with a molecular weight of 25.3 kD. Conserved domain analysis showed that SmIAA7 contains the conserved Aux_IAA domain (pfam02309). Sequence analysis and phylogenetic tree analysis results indicated SmIAA7 was phylogenetically close to IAA7 and IAA14 from other plants, suggesting SmIAA7 involved in plant growth and development as well as response to environmental stresses. The prokaryotic expression vector pET28a-SmIAA7 was constructed and SmIAA7 recombinant protein was successfully expressed in E. coli Rosetta (DE3) strain. Subcellular localization experiment demonstrated that SmIAA7 localized in the nucleus of plant cells. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that the expression level of SmIAA7 was upregulated in response to auxin. Drought, low temperature, and salt stress significantly increased the transcript level of SmIAA7 gene. This study lays a foundation for further elucidating the role of SmIAA7 in leaf development, signal transduction, and stress defense in S. miltiorrhiza.

Objective Evaluation of the clinical efficacy of f trochanteric flip osteotomy combined with Kocher-Langen-beck approach for high acetabular posterior wall fracture.Methods Between January 2020 and December 2022,20 patients with high acetabular posterior wall fractures were retrospectively analyzed,including 12 males and 8 females,aged 18 to 75 years old.They were divided into two groups according to the different surgical methods.Ten patients were treated with greater trochanteric osteotomy combined with Kocher-Langenbeck approach as the observation group,including 5 males and 5 fe-males,aged from 18 to 75 years old.Ten patients were treated with Kocher-Langenbeck approach alone as the control group,including 7 males and 3 females,aged from 18 to 71 years old.Matta reduction criteria were used to evaluate the reduction quality of the two groups,and Harris score was used to compare the hip function of the two groups at the latest follow-up.The operation time,blood loss and postoperative complications of the two groups were analyzed.Results All patients were followed up for 10 to 24 months.According to the Matta fracture reduction quality evaluation criteria,the observation group achieved anatomical reduction in 6 cases,satisfactory reduction in 3 cases,and unsatisfactory reduction in 1 case,while the control group only achieved anatomical reduction in 3 cases,satisfactory reduction in 3 cases,and unsatisfactory reduction in 4 cases.At the final follow-up,the Harris hip score ranged from 71.4 to 96.6 in the observation group and 65.3 to 94.5 in the control group.According to the results of Harris score.The hip joint function of the observation group was excellent in 6 cases,good in 3 cases,and fair in 1 case.The hip joint function of the control group was excellent in 2 cases,good in 3 cases,fair in 3 cases,and poor in 2 cases.In the observation group,the intraoperative blood loss ranged from 300 to 700 ml,and the operation dura-tion ranged from 120 to 180 min;in the control group,the intraoperative blood loss ranged from 300 to 650 ml,and the opera-tion duration ranged from 100 to 180 min.Complications in the observation group included 1 case of traumatic arthritis and 1 case of heterotopic ossification,while complications in the control group included 3 cases of traumatic arthritis,3 cases of het-erotopic ossification and 1 case of hip abduction weakness.Conclusions Trochanteric flip osteotomy combined with the Kocher-Langenbeck approach significantly improved anatomical fracture reduction rates,enhanced excellent and good hip joint function outcomes,and reduced surgical complication incidence compared to the Kocher-Langenbeck approach alone.Clinical application of this combined approach is promising,although larger studies are needed for further validation.

Objective To explore the value of electrocardiogram in predicting culprit vessels in acute inferior myocardial infarction.Methods The clinical data of 129 patients with acute inferior myocardial infarction admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were received coronary intervention treatment,and the culprit vessels were identified by coronary angiography.The culprit vessels during surgery were recorded.The preoperative electrocardio-gram of patients were analyzed,a new method for predicting culprit vessels in acute inferior myocardial infarction was established based on the previous researches,and the accuracies of the Fiol method,Tiala method,Huang's algorithm and new method in predicting the culprit vessels in acute inferior myocardial infarction were also counted.The predictive abilities of various methods on culprit vessels were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated.Results The culprit vessels of 109 patients were the right coronary artery,16 cases were the left circumflex artery,and 4 cases were the anterior descending artery.A total of 52 patients developed clinical complications,of which the culprit vessels of 47 cases were right coronary artery and 5 cases were circumflex artery.The accuracies of the Fiol method,Tierala method,Huang's algorithm,and new method in predicting culprit vessels were 83.7%,81.4%,82.9%,and 85.3%,respectively.The ROC curve analysis showed that the Fiol method(AUC=0.941),Tierrala method(AUC= 0.945),Huang's algorithm(AUC=0.945),and new method(AUC=0.964)all had strong predictive ability for culprit vessels.Conclusion For patients with acute inferior myocardial infarction,the Fiol method,Tierala method,Huang's algorithm,and new method all have high predictive value for culprit vessels in analyzing the preoperative electrocardiogram,and the new method has a higher predictive value.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of adjuvant PD-1 inhibitor in the treatment of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after microwave ablation and the changes of lymphocyte subsets before and after treatment.Methods A total of 56 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent microwave ablation in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups according to different treatments,with 28 cases in each group.Patients in the group A received adjuvant treatment with PD-1 inhibitors after microwave ablation,while patients in the group B received microwave ablation alone.The local efficacy of microwave ablation,the survival of patients after adjuvant treatment of PD-1 inhibitor and the occurrence of related adverse reactions were observed.Peripheral venous blood was collected to detect the number of T lymphocyte subsets before microwave ablation in the two groups,after microwave ablation in the group B,and after six cycles of immunotherapy in the group A.Results There was no significant difference in the complete ablation rate of cases between group A and group B(89.3% vs.85.7%,P=0.69),and there was no significant difference in the complete ablation rate of lesions between group A and group B(91.7% vs.85.3%,P=0.40).The median progression-free survival(mPFS)of the group A was not yet reached,the mPFS of group B was 12.6 months,and there was a statistically significant difference in the mPFS between the two groups(P=0.03).The median overall survival(mOS)of the two group were not yet reached.The proportion of CD4+T lymphocytes after treatment in the group A significantly increased compared with that in the group B[(37.05±2.22)% vs.(29.23±2.88)%,P=0.03],while the proportion of CD8+T lymphocytes[(21.08±2.23)% vs.(27.18±1.75)%,P=0.04)]and the proportion of Treg cells[(4.26±0.31)% vs.(5.22±0.34)%,P=0.04]significantly decreased.There was no serious adverse reactions in all patients after microwave ablation,and 28 patients in the group A had no adverse reactions above grade 3 after PD-1 inhibitor treatment.Conclusion Adjuvant PD-1 inhibitor therapy after microwave ablation can prolong the progression-free survival of patients,enhance the function of T lymphocytes,and weaken the role of immunosuppressive cells,which may be an effective strategy to delay the recurrence of liver cancer after microwave ablation.

This study was aimed at comparing performance differences among three metagenomic sequencing platforms,MGISEQ-2000,Illumina NextSeq 2000,and Ion GeneStudio S5 Plus,to optimize the sequencing process for trace samples.The three sequencing platforms were used to perform high-throughput sequencing on DNA standards and simulated samples.Through analysis of the quality of raw data and microbial detection capabilities,systematic differences among platforms were compared.The sequencing results were optimized for trace samples by incorporation of exogenous nucleic acids during the li-brary preparation process.In terms of data output per batch and base quality,MGISEQ-2000 surpassed the other two plat-forms.Illumina NextSeq 2000 had the lowest proportion of duplicate reads,whereas Ion GeneStudio S5 Plus had the highest proportion,and significant differences were observed across platforms(P＜0.001).In sequencing uniformity,MGISEQ-2000 and Illumina NextSeq 2000 were superior to Ion GeneStudio S5 Plus.MGISEQ-2000 provided a substantial advantage in microbial detection capability(P＜0.001),but the advantage diminished with decreasing bacterial fluid concentration.Ion GeneStudio S5 Plus had the shortest duration for single-batch sequencing.Moreo-ver,for trace samples with DNA content ≤0.05 ng,the experi-mental group(with added exogenous nucleic acids)achieved a higher number of reads than the control group(without exogenous nucleic acids),with a 11.09±8.03 fold increase.In conclu-sion,the different sequencing platforms each had advantages and disadvantages,thus allowing researchers to choose the appro-priate platform according to specific needs.Furthermore,the addition of exogenous nucleic acids improved the microorganism detection efficiency,and provided better support for subsequent diagnosis and evaluation of results.

Objective:To detect the expression of L-type amino acid transporter 1(LAT1)in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma(NHL)tissues,and analyze its effect on clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients.Methods:A total of 92 NHL patients who were treated in our hospital from January 2017 to April 2019 were collected.The expression of LAT1 in NHL tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry and compared between patients with different pathological features(including sex,Ann Arbor stage,extranodal infiltration,Ki-67).The risk factors affecting mortality were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to detect the predictive value of percentage of LAT1-positive cells in NHL tissue for patient mortality,and analyzing the effect of percentage of LAT1-positive cells on survival rate.Results:LAT1 was positively expressed in NHL tissue.The high expression rate of LAT1 in Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ groups were higher than that in Ann Arbor stage Ⅰ group,that in extranodal infiltration group was higher than non-extranodal infiltration group,and that in Ki-67 positive expression group was higher than Ki-67 negative expression group(all P＜0.05).The remission rate after 3 courses of treatment in high-LAT1 expression group was 70.7％,which was lower than 91.2％in low-LAT1 expression group(P＜0.05).Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ and Ⅳ,extranodal invasion,Ki-67 positive expression and increased expression of LAT1(LAT1-positive cell percentage score ≥ 2)were risk factors for mortality.The cut-off value of percentage of LAT1-positive cells for predicting NHL death was 45.6％,and the area under the ROC curve was 0.905(95％CI:0.897-0.924).The 3-year survival rate of high-LAT1 level group(the percentage of LAT1-positive cells ≥ 45.6％)was 50.00％,which was lower than 78.26％of low-LAT1 level group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The expression level of LAT1 in NHL tissue increases,which affects Ann Arbor stage and extranodal infiltration of patients.LAT1 is a risk factor for death.

Objective:To analyze the prognostic nutritional index(PNI),controlling nutritional status(CONUT)and fibrinogen/albumin ratio(FAR)levels in elderly patients with multiple myeloma(MM)and their prognostic impact.Methods:The clinical data of 74 elderly MM patients diagnosed in Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2020 to July 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The optimal cut-off values for PNI,CONUT score and FAR were obtained by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,which were used for grouping patients.The correlation of above three indexes with clinical parameters such as sex,serum calcium(Ca),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),serum creatinine(Cr)in elderly MM patients were analyzed.The survival rates of patients with different levels of each index were compared.Univariate and multivariate analysis of the impact of clinical indicators on the prognosis of patients were performed.Results:The optimal cut-off values for PNI,CONUT score and FAR were 39.775,3.5 and 0.175,respectively,according to which the patients were divided into high and low group.Statistical analysis showed that there were significant differences in albumin level among different groups(all P＜0.05).In addition,there was a significant difference in hemoglobin between high-PNI group and low-PNI group(P＜0.05),while in sex distribution between high-FAR and low-FAR group(P＜0.05).The survival rate of elderly MM patients with increased PNI,decreased CONUT score and FAR was higher(all P＜0.05).Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that β2-MG,Cr,PNI,CONUT score and FAR were independent prognostic factors for elderly MM patients.Conclusion:PNI,CONUT score and FAR are related to some clinical indicators of elderly MM patients,and have an impact on the prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with CD5+diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Methods:The clinical data of 161 newly treated DLBCL patients in Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2013 to January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.According to CD5 expression,the patients were divided into CD5+group and CD5-group.The clinical characteristics and prognosis of the two groups were statistically analyzed.Results:The median age of patients in CD5+group was 62 years,which was higher than 56 years in CD5-group(P=0.048).The proportion of women in CD5+group was 62.96％,which was significantly higher than 41.79％in CD5-group(P=0.043).The proportion of patients with IPI score＞2 in CD5+group was 62.96％,which was higher than 40.30％in CD5-group(P=0.031).Survival analysis showed that the median overall survival and progression-free survival time of patients in CD5+group were 27(3-77)and 31(3-76)months,respectively,which were both shorter than 30(5-84)and 32.5(4-83)months in CD5-group(P=0.047,P=0.026).Univariate analysis showed that advanced age,positive CD5 expression,triple or double hit at initial diagnosis,high IPI score and no use of rituximab during chemotherapy were risk factors for the prognosis of DLBCL patients.Further Cox multivariate regression analysis showed that these factors were also independent risk factors except for advanced age.Conclusion:CD5+DLBCL patients have a worse prognosis than CD5-DLBCL patients.Such patients are more common in females,with advanced age and high IPI score,which is a special subtype of DLBCL.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and occurrence of thrombotic/bleeding events of patients with myeloproliferative neoplasm(MPN),and explore the main influencing factors,and create a risk prediction.Methods:The clinical data of 126 MPN patients with BCR-ABL fusion gene negative in the Department of Hematology of Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2016 to September 2021 were collected,and their clinical characteristics,occurrence of thrombotic/bleeding events and main influencing factors were analyzed and summarized retrospectively.Then,a risk prediction model for thrombotic/bleeding events in MPN patients was constructed.Results:Among 126 MPN patients,50 patients(39.7％)had experienced thrombotic/bleeding events,including 44 patients(34.9％)with thrombotic events and 6 patients(4.8％)with bleeding events.Among thrombotic diseases,cerebral thrombosis was the most common(23/44,52.3％),followed by 9 cases of limb artery thrombosis mainly characterized by finger and toe tip artery ischemia,occlusion and gangrene(9/44,20.5％).Bleeding events included intracerebral hemorrhage and gastrointestinal hemorrhage.Univariate analysis showed that hypertension,hyperhomocysteinemia,white blood cell(WBC)≥10 × 109/L,hematocrit(HCT)≥49％,platelet(PLT)≥600 × 109/L and JAK2V617F gene mutation were risk factors for thrombotic/bleeding events in MPN patients,while CALR gene mutation was a protective factor.Multivariate analysis showed that hypertension and PLT ≥ 600 × 109/L were independent risk factors for thrombotic/bleeding events in MPN patients.The goodness of fit of the constructed risk prediction model was 0.872,and the area under the ROC curve was 0.838.The model was validated with clinical data,the sensitivity,specificity and accuracy was 78.85％,87.83％and 84.13％,respectively.Conclusion:The risk of thrombotic/bleeding events in MPN patients with high WBC count,hypertension and hyperhomocysteinemia is higher.Controlling hypertension and hyperhomocysteinemia and reducing WBC and PLT counts are helpful to prevent thrombotic/bleeding events and improve the life quality of patients.

Objective:To compare the difference between the Evidence Quality Grading System for Public Health Decision-making(PHE-Grading)and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment,Development and Evaluation(GRADE)System in evaluating the quality of evidence for public health decision-making.Methods:Systematic reviews about topic"Public health"were electronically searched in the Cochrane Library database from inception to February 27,2024.EndNote 20 software was used for literature screening,Excel 2021 and SPSS 22.0 software were used for data collation and analysis,and the forest plot was drawn by RevMan 5.4.1 software.Results:A total of 61 systematic reviews were finally included for evidence quality evaluation.The forest plot of GRADE and PHE-Grading evidence grading results showed that high grade[OR:2.39,95%CI(1.21 to 4.75)],moderate grade[OR:0.40,95%CI(0.31 to 0.52)],low grade[OR:0.37,95%CI(0.29 to 0.46)],and extremely low grade[OR:85.11,95%CI(34.80 to 208.11)],and the differences in evidence quality grading results between the two systems were statistically significant.Conclusions:Compared with GRADE,PHE-Grading may be more accurate in grasping the certainty of public health decision-making evidence.Currently,the quality of public health decision-making evidence is still concentrated in low and middle level,and high-quality research still needs to be strengthened to support scientific decision-making.
