Objective:To evaluate the relationship between hippocampal miR-3065-5p and insulin-like growth factor-1/phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B(IGF-1/PI3K/Akt)signaling pathway in a mouse model of perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND).Methods:Eighty clean-grade healthy male C75BL/6 mice, aged 12-14 weeks, weighing 20-30 g, were divided them into 4 groups ( n=20 each) using the random number table method: control group (C group), PND group, miR-3065-5p agonist group (Ag group) and miR-3065-5p agonist negative control group (Ag-NC group). PND model was prepared by internal fixation of tibial fracture under anesthesia with 1.5% isoflurane. Two days before developing the model, miR-3065-5p agomir 2 μl was injected into the lateral ventricle in Ag group, miR-3065-5p agomir negative control 2 μl was injected into the lateral ventricle in Ag-NC group. Morris water maze test and open field test were performed at 7 days after surgery. The mice were sacrificed after the end of test, and hippocampal tissues were obtained for determination of the expression of miR-3065-5p, IGF-1 mRNA and Bcl-2 mRNA (by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction) and expression of IGF-1, phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt), phosphorylated glycogen synthase kinase-3β (p-GSK3β) and Bcl-2 (by Western blot). Results:There was no significant difference in each parameter in the open field test among the four groups ( P>0.05). Compared with group C, the postoperative escape latency was significantly prolonged, the percentage of time of stay at the target quadrant was decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was reduced, the expression of miR-3065-5p was up-regulated, and the expression of IGF-1 mRNA, Bcl-2 mRNA, IGF-1, p-Akt, p-GSK3β and Bcl-2 was down-regulated in the other three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with PND group and Ag-NC group, the postoperative escape latency was significantly prolonged, the percentage of time of stay at the target quadrant was decreased, the number of crossing the original platform was reduced, the expression of miR-3065-5p was up-regulated, and the expression of IGF-1 mRNA, Bcl-2 mRNA, IGF-1, p-Akt, p-GSK3β and Bcl-2 was down-regulated in Ag group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Up-regulation of miR-3065-5p can inhibit the activation of IGF-1/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which might be one of the mechanisms of PND developed in mice.

Objective:To evaluate the role of miR-124-3p in reduction of oxygen-glucose deprivation and restoration (OGD/R) injury by electrostimulation preconditioning in microglia and its relationship with microglial polarization.Methods:The well-growing BV2 cells were divided into 4 groups ( n=30 each) by the random number table method: control group (group C), OGD/R group, electrostimulation preconditioning group (group E) and miR-124-3p inhibitor group (group I). Group C was cultured under normal conditions, and group OGD/R was deprived of oxygen and glucose for 2 h followed by restoration of oxygen and glucose supply for 24 h to develop the OGD/R injury model. In group E, cells were stimulated with 100 mV/mm direct current for 4 h before oxygen-glucose deprivation, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group OGD/R. Group I was transfected with micrOFF? mmu-miR-124-3p inhibitor at 48 h before oxygen-glucose deprivation, and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group E. The cell survival rate was determined by CCK-8 assay, the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and IL-10 in the cell supernatant were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The expression of a surface marker of M1 microglia inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and a surface marker of M2 microglia arginase 1 (Arg-1) was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot, respectively. The expression of iNOS and Arg-1 mRNA and miR-124-3p was detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results:Compared with group C, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-10 in the supernatant were increased, and the expression of iNOS and Arg-1 protein and mRNA and miR-124-3p was up-regulated in the remaining three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group OGD/R, the cell survival rate was significantly increased, the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β in the supernatant were decreased, the IL-10 concentration was increased, the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated, and the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA and miR-124-3p was up-regulated in E and I groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group E, the cell survival rate was significantly decreased, the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-1β in the supernatant were increased, the IL-10 concentration was decreased, the expression of iNOS protein and mRNA was up-regulated, and the expression of Arg-1 protein and mRNA and miR-124-3p was down-regulated in group I ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which electrostimulation preconditioning reduces OGD/R injury in microglia is related to up-regulation of the expression of miR-124-3p, promotion of M2 microglia polarization, inhibition of M1 microglia polarization, and thus inhibiting the inflammatory responses.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of volume therapy guided by inferior vena cava ultrasound and lung ultrasound at different sites in patients undergoing grade four hysteroscopic surgery.Methods:A total of 90 patients, aged 18-64 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classificationⅠ or Ⅱ, undergoing elective grade four hysteroscopic surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 3 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: conventional group (C group), ultrasound at the subcostal area group (S group) and ultrasound at right mid-axillary line group (R group). When the inferior vena cava distensibility index<15% or pulmonary ultrasound B-line score>8.5 or arterial blood gas Na + concentrations <125 mmol/L, surgeons were advised to speed up the process of surgery and decrease the pressure of uterine distention, furosemide 10-20 mg was intravenously injected, and the speed of infusion was adjusted at the same time.On admission to the operating room (T 0), at 20 min after induction (T 1), 40 min after induction (T 2), and at the end of operation (T 3), the B-line score of lung ultrasound, concentrations of Lac and Na + and PaO 2/FiO 2 were recorded, and the postoperative complications, amount of uterine distention fluid, volume of fluid infused and time of laryngeal mask airway removal were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the pulmonary ultrasound B-line score was significantly decreased, the concentrations of Na + and PaO 2/FiO 2 were increased, the time of laryngeal mask airway removal was shortened, and the amount of uterine distention fluid was decreased in S and R groups, and the total incidence of complications was significantly decreased in group R ( P<0.05). Compared with group S, the lung ultrasound B-line score was significantly decreased, PaO 2/FiO 2 was increased, and the amount of uterine distention fluid was decreased in group R ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with subxiphoid process, the volume therapy guided by inferior vena cava ultrasound on the right mid-axillary line and lung ultrasound has more advantages in the patients undergoing grade four hysteroscopic surgery.
