BACKGROUND:Heterotopic ossification of skeletal muscle is a clinically serious complication.For heterotopic ossification of skeletal muscles,the cells involved in the process of heterotopic ossification remain unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the involvement of myocytes,fascia cells,and endothelial cells in the process of heterotopic ossification in skeletal muscle and to observe the cell origin of heterotopic ossification in skeletal muscle induced by bone morphogenetic protein 4. METHODS:Both C2C12 cells and the myotubes formed by the C2C12 cells in the induction medium were cultured,and 500 ng/mL bone morphogenetic protein 4 was added to the medium respectively,and whether the C2C12 cells and myotubes continued to proliferate within 10 days under the treatment were observed under a microscope.Myogenic cells(L6,derived from rats)and fibroblast-derived cells(derived from human)were co-cultured.After treatment with 500 ng/mL bone morphogenetic protein 4 and 10 ng/mL transforming growth factor-β,osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation potential within 21 days were observed using Safranine O staining and Alcian blue staining.Using transgenic animal FVB/N-TgN(TIE2-LacZ)182Sato mice,15 μL of adeno-associated virus-bone morphogenetic protein 4(5×1010 PFU/mL)were implanted in the thigh muscle space of genetic mice for 10 and 14 days.X-gal staining was used to observe the formation of new blood vessel endothelium in the differentiated bone. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Bone morphogenetic protein 4 caused myotube breakdown and increased C2C12 cell proliferation.Compared with other groups,the pure fibroblast-derived cell group had a higher area of positive alcian blue and safarin O staining(P<0.05)and a lower area of alkaline phosphatase staining(P<0.05),while the pure L6 group had a bigger area of alkaline phosphatase staining(P<0.05)but a smaller area of positive alcian blue and safarin O staining(P<0.05).(2)Transplantation of adeno-associated virus-bone morphogenetic protein 4-adsorbed gelatin sponge into FVB/N-TgN(TIE2-LacZ)182Sato mice resulted in heterotopic ossification.(3)X-gal staining results demonstrated that there was no obvious staining in chondrocytes and differentiated bones and Tie2+ endothelial cells did not participate in the formation of the alienated bone.(4)These findings verify that fibroblasts are the primary source of osteoblasts during the adeno-associated virus-bone morphogenetic protein 4-induced ectopic endochondral ossification in skeletal muscle,but myogenic cells are the main source of osteoblasts.Tie2+ endothelial cells might not be the cell source for cartilage and bone.

Objective:To develop the Postoperative Subdelirium Syndrome Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire for Surgical Nurses and test its reliability and validity.Methods:Based on the theory of knowledge, attitude, and practice, the preliminary Postoperative Subdelirium Syndrome Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire for Surgical Nurses was developed through literature search and analysis, Delphi expert consultation, and pre-survey. From February to April 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 375 surgical nurses from five Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals and three Class Ⅲ Grade B hospitals in Zhejiang Province for questionnaire item analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and reliability testing.Results:The final Postoperative Subdelirium Syndrome Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire for Surgical Nurses consisted of 33 items in three dimensions of knowledge, attitude, and practice. Exploratory factor analysis extracted three common factors with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 67.016%. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.931, and the Cronbach's α coefficients for each dimension were 0.972, 0.906, and 0.932, respectively. The overall test-retest reliability coefficient of the questionnaire was 0.999, and the test-retest reliability coefficients for each dimension were 0.997, 0.994, and 0.998. The questionnaire-level content validity index was 0.889, and the item-level content validity index was 0.833 to 1.000.Conclusions:The Postoperative Subdelirium Syndrome Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice Questionnaire for Surgical Nurses has good reliability and validity, and can be used to evaluate the knowledge, attitude, and practice of postoperative subdelirium syndrome among surgical nurses.

Sepsis is a critical illness with high morbidity and mortality. Anaerobic glycolysis plays an important role in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDHC) serves as a key regulator during sepsis. With PDHC dephosphorylation and deacetylation, PDHC activity is upregulated, allowing pyruvate translocate to mitochondria in aerobic condition, preceding the production of acetyl-CoA to accelerate aerobic oxidation. Activation of PDHC improves the prognosis of sepsis through regulating the balance of lactate, release of inflammatory factors and energy metabolism. A variety of remedies can improve the prognosis of patients with sepsis by up-regulating the activity of PDHC, including dichloroacetate (DCA), vitamin B1, milrinone, tumor necrosis factor binding protein, and ciprofloxacin.This article reviews the role and the regulatory mechanism of PDHC and signal pathway in the sepsis metabolism, in order to innovate treatment for sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction.

Objective:To evaluate the quality of the National Demonstration Area for Comprehensive Prevention and Control of NCDs (referred to as "the Demonstration Area").Methods:Based on the evaluation scores of the Demonstration Area field survey from 2017 to 2019, we counted the scores of each indicator, comparing the scores among indicators and regions. x± s was used to describe the scores. The 95% CI of the score was used to test the statistical difference among regions. Each score was converted into a hundred-mark system to compare the scores among indicators. Results:Of 236 Demonstration Areas, the total score was 83.5. The scores of the first-level indicator listed from high to low appeared as Integrating System of NCD Prevention and Control (92.8), Policy Perfection (90.3), Building Supportive Environment for NCD Prevention and Control (88.4), Implementation of Health Education and Health Promotion (87.4), Whole-course Management of NCDs (78.1), Innovation and Guidance (76.5), Surveillance and Evaluation (75.1). Total scores were higher in the east (259.2±18.8) comparing to the middle (243.2±15.2) or the west (245.4±19.7) regions.Conclusions:Substantial variations on the quality in the Demonstration Area existed across different regions in China. These disparities are important to the government when developing health policies and allocating resources. Whole-course Management of NCDs, Surveillance and Evaluation, and Innovation and Guidance in the Demonstration Area also needs to be improved.

Objective:To study the effect of the injected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) on rats with pulmonary fibrosis induced by paraquat (PQ) during different poisoning periods and explore the potential mechanism.Methods:From October to December 2018, BMSCs of SPF SD rats were isolated and purified by whole-bone marrow adherent culture method and cultured to the Third Generation (P3) . The surface antigens CD29, CD90, CD45 and CD34 of P3 BMSC were detected by Flow cytometry, the formation of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) , calcium nodules and fat droplets were observed by ALP, Alizarin Red staining and oil red O staining. At the same time, 36 SPF male rats were randomly divided into 6 groups: NC Group (Blank Control Group, injected with the same amount of saline) and PQ group (PQ model group, injected with 20% PQ solution 18 mg/kg intraperitoneally) , bMSC-A group, BMSC-B group, BMSC-C group and BMSC-D group were injected with BMSC suspension 1×10 6 cells/mice at 3 h、3 d、7 d and 14 d after PQ poisoning. After 28 days, the rats were killed, the lung organ coefficients were calculated, the hydroxyproline (HYP) content in lung tissue was calculated by alkaline hydrolysis, and the lung injury and fibrosis were observed by HE and Masson staining, serum TGF-1、TNF-α、MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were detected by Elisa. Results:High Purity BMSCs were successfully isolated and obtained. The P3 BMSC generation was positive expression of CD29、CD90、and negative expression of CD34、CD45, and had the potential of osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation. The results of HE staining and Masson staining showed that the alveolar structure in NC group was intact and homogeneous, in PQ group, the alveolar structure was severely damaged and a lot of collagen fibers and fibroblasts were deposited, and the degrees of lung injury in each BMSC intervention group were obviously less than in PQ group, in BMSC-A group and BMSC-B group, the degrees of reduction were obvious. Compared with NC group, the Lung organ coefficient, HYP content in lung tissue and TGF-β1, TIMP-1 levels in serum were significantly higher in PQ group ( P<0.05) , while TNF-α and MMP-9 had no significant difference ( P>0.05) . Compared with PQ group, the lung organ Coefficients, HYP, TGF-1 and TIMP-β1 in BMSC-A and BMSC-B groups were lower than those in PQ group ( P<0.05) . The Lung organ coefficients, TGF-β1 and TIMP-1 in BMSC-C and BMSC-D groups were lower than those in PQ group, there was no significant difference ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:Early BMSC injecting can alleviate pulmonary fibrosis induced by PQ. The mechanism may be that BMSC can reduce pulmonary fibrosis through reducing the level of TGF-β1 and regulating the balance of TIMP-1/MMP-9, threrby reducing inflammatory damage and increasing the degradation of extracellular matrix (ECM) .

Objective: To analyze the clinical features of perianal condyloma acuminatum in HIV infected men who have sex with men (MSM) and assess the effects of combined treatment of microwave and photodynamic therapy. Methods: Clinical and laboratory data of 260 male patients with perianal condyloma acuminatum were collected and microwave combined with photodynamic therapy was applied on them. Results: The majority of the patients with perianal condyloma acuminatum were young people (243/260). Warts were mainly located in the anus or from the outside to inside of the anus (245/260). Among them, the proportion of warts position of extraanal in HIV-infected group (8/220) was lower than that of non-HIV-infected group (7/40). HPV types 11 (70/118), 6 (44/118) and 16 (40/118) were the most common types of HPV infection. People with HIV infection were more likely to develop high-risk, mixed types HPV infection and multiple HPV infection than those without HIV infection. More than half of the patients (146/260) needed only 1-3 sessions of photodynamic treatments. There was no significant difference in the times of photodynamic treatments and the numbers of photosensitizers required between the HIV-infected and non-HIV-infected groups. The recurrence rate of HIV-infected group (13.6%, 30/220) was also similar to that of non-HIV-infected group (15.0%, 6/40), but far lower than those who underwent microwave therapy alone (45%, 18/40). Conclusions The combination therapy significantly reduced the recurrence rate of perianal condyloma acuminatum in HIV infected MSM.

Objective To compare the diagnostic accuracy of magnifying chromoendoscopy (MCE) and endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for preoperative endoscopic assessment of the invasion depth of colorectal laterally spreading tumour(LST).Methods Data of 104 cases of colorectal LST were included.With the final pathological diagnosis as the golden standard,the accuracies of MCE and EUS for preoperative assessment of the invasion depth of colorectal LST were compared.Results The diagnostic accuracies of MCE and EUS for evaluating the invasion depth of LST were 89.4％ (93/104) and 73.1％ (76/104),respectively(P＜0.05).The lesion size and the endoscopist could affect the accuracy of the EUS evaluation (P=0.017,OR=3.561;P=0.035,OR =1.399).The accuracy of EUS seemed to show a downward trend for colorectal LST of larger diameters.Conclusion Both MCE and EUS are effective for evaluating the invasion depth of colorectal LST,but the accuracy of MCE may be higher than that of EUS.Large diameter of the lesion and the doctor's experience inadequacy may be the risk factors for the accuracy of EUS.

OBJECTIVE： To separate and identify chemical components in ethyl acetate fraction and water fraction from Tripterygium wilfordii， and to provider basis for further pharmacological study.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the incidence and genotypes of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in Dongguan region of Guangdong Province and assess the efficacy and feasibility of flow-through hybridization. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were randomly selected and detected by modified G6PD/6PGD ratio method. Flow-through hybridization was used to detect 14 G6PD mutations among all samples. RESULTS: In total 1005 samples were collected, the detection rate for modified G6PD/6PGD ratio method and flow-through hybridization were 2.79% and 20.90%, respectively. The consistency of the two methods was poor(Kappa=0.187). When c.1311C>T mutation is excluded, the consistency of the two methods was good for males (Kappa=0.952) but still poor for females (Kappa=0.194). The most common mutations were c.1376G>T, c.1388G>A and c.95A>G. No G6PD deficiency was found among those only carrying the c.1311C>T mutation. CONCLUSION Flow-through hybridization can simultaneously detect 14 loci, covering over 90% of common mutations in Chinese population, and can be easily expanded. The routine method may miss many females carrying homozygous, compound heterozygous and heterozygous mutations, but the detection rate for male hemizygous mutation was much higher.
