Objective:To investigate the correlation between pulmonary ultrasound on pulmonary consolidation and T lymphocytes,cytokines in predicting the progression of neonatal pneumonia.Methods:A total of 80 pediatric patients with pulmonary consolidation,who admitted to neonatal ward of Beijing Chao-yang Hospital and were confirmed by the first ultrasound examination on lung from February 2021 to February 2023,were divided into study group,and 50 children,who underwent physical examination during the same period,were divided into control group.The cell subsets and cytokines between two groups were compared.The study group was further divided into mitigation group and progression group according to the disease conditions of pediatric patients of study group after they received 3 d treatment.Multifactor logistic regression was adopted to analyze the correlation among the T lymphocytes,cytokines and the progression of disease.Results:The CD3+,CD8+,CD4+/CD8+cell subsets of T lymphocytes and cytokines such as IL-17-A,TNF-α and ICAM-1 of study group were significantly higher than those of control group(t=16.483,4.933,4.113,22.933,22.433,19.525,P<0.05),respectively,and the CD4+level was significantly lower than that of control group(t=7.773,P<0.05).The CD3+cell subsets and cytokine levels such as IL-17A,TNF-α and ICAM-1 of progression group were significantly higher than those of mitigation group(t=6.815,4.631,4.307,P<0.05),however the CD4+level was significantly lower than that of mitigation group(t=3.044,P<0.05).The results of the multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the decrease of CD3+expression,the increase of IL-17A expression and the increase of the area of pulmonary consolidation were the risk factors of the progress of neonatal pneumonia(β=-0.176,0.777,0.931,P<0.05),respectively.The results of the Pearson-correlation analysis showed that CD3+was negative correlation with the progression of neonatal pneumonia(r=-0.295,P<0.001),however,the IL-17A and the area of pulmonary consolidation showed a positive correlation with the progression of neonatal pneumonia(r=0.677,0.517,P<0.001).Conclusion:The CD3+expression,IL-17A of peripheral blood and the area of pulmonary consolidation are significantly predictive factors of pneumonia progression,and are closely related to the progression of pneumonia.

Objective:To explore the alterations in functional connectivity density (FCD) resulted from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and their correlations with cognitive scores in various cognitive domains in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods:Forty-three PD patients admitted to Department of Neurology, Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from January 2022 to April 2024 were selected and divided into PD-MCI group (MoCA scores<26) and PD with normal cognition (PD-NC) group (MoCA scores≥26) according to Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Another 23 middle-aged and elderly healthy volunteers (HC group) matched with PD patients in age, gender and education level were recruited at the same period. Resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) data were collected and whole brain FCD was calculated. Differences of clinical data, whole brain FCD, and FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD among the 3 groups were compared. Efficiency of FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD between PD-MCI group and PD-NC group in differentially diagnosing PD-MCI and PD-NC was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Pearson correlation was used to the analyze the correlations of FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD with MoCA score and cognitive scores in various cognitive domains.Results:Among the 43 patients, 23 were into the PD-MCI group and 20 into the PD-NC group. PD-MCI group had significantly lower scores in the visuospatial and executive function, abstraction, and delayed memory cognitive domains than PD-NC group ( P<0.05). Brain regions with significantly different FCD among the 3 groups were the right parahippocampal gyrus, left gyrus rectus, right rolandic operculum, left middle occipital gyrus, right precentral gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, and left medial superior frontal gyrus. Compared with the HC group, the PD-MCI group and PD-NC group had significantly increased FCD at the right parahippocampal gyrus, left gyrus rectus and right rolandic operculum, statistically decreased FCD at the right precentral gyrus, left middle frontal gyrus, and left medial superior frontal gyrus ( P<0.05). Compared with the HC group, the PD-MCI group had significantly increased FCD at the left middle occipital gyrus ( P<0.05). Compared with the PD-NC group, the PD-MCI group had significantly decreased FCD at the right parahippocampal gyrus, and statistically increased FCD at the left middle occipital gyrus and left middle frontal gyrus ( P<0.05). Area under ROC curve (AUC) of FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD in discriminating PD-MCI and PD-NC was 0.878, with sensitivity of 90.0% and specificity of 91.3%. FCD at right parahippocampal gyrus, left middle occipital gyrus and left middle frontal gyrus was negatively correlated with MoCA score ( P<0.05); FCD at right parahippocampal gyrus was positively correlated with cognitive scores in the visuospatial and executive function, and delayed memory domains ( P<0.05); FCD at left middle occipital gyrus was negatively correlated with cognitive scores in the executive function and visual-spatial skills, and abstraction domains ( P<0.05); FCD at the left medial frontal gyrus was negatively correlated with cognitive scores in the visuospatial and executive function, abstraction and delayed memory domains ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Abnormal FCD can be noted in some brain regions of PD patients, enjoying differences between PD-MCI patients and PD-NC patients. Combined FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD has high value in differentially diagnosing PD-MCI and PD-NC, and FCD in brain regions with significantly different FCD is correlated with cognitive function changes in PD patients.

In the development of chemo-immunotherapy, many efforts have been focusing on designing suitable carriers to realize the co-delivery of chemotherapeutic and immunotherapeutic with different physicochemical properties and mechanisms of action. Besides, rapid drug release at the tumor site with minimal drug degradation is also essential to facilitate the antitumor effect in a short time. Here, we reported a cancer cell membrane-coated pH-responsive nanogel (NG@M) to co-deliver chemotherapeutic paclitaxel (PTX) and immunotherapeutic agent interleukin-2 (IL-2) under mild conditions for combinational treatment of triple-negative breast cancer. In the designed nanogels, the synthetic copolymer PDEA-co-HP-β-cyclodextrin-co-Pluronic F127 and charge reversible polymer dimethylmaleic anhydride-modified polyethyleneimine endowed nanogels with excellent drug-loading capacity and rapid responsive drug-releasing behavior under acidic tumor microenvironment. Benefited from tumor homologous targeting capacity, NG@M exhibited 4.59-fold higher accumulation at the homologous tumor site than heterologous cancer cell membrane-coated NG. Rapidly released PTX and IL-2 enhanced the maturation of dendritic cells and quickly activated the antitumor immune response in situ, followed by prompted infiltration of immune effector cells. By the combined chemo-immunotherapy, enhanced antitumor effect and efficient pulmonary metastasis inhibition were achieved with a prolonged median survival rate (39 days).

Acetaminophen (APAP) overdose is the leading cause of drug-induced liver injury, and its prognosis depends on the balance between hepatocyte death and regeneration. Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6) has been reported to protect against oxidative stress-associated DNA damage. But whether SIRT6 regulates APAP-induced hepatotoxicity remains unclear. In this study, the protein expression of nuclear and total SIRT6 was up-regulated in mice liver at 6 and 48 h following APAP treatment, respectively.

Objective:To compare fibrosis-driving cells in patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with myelofibrosis (MF) (MDS-MF) .Methods:Bone marrow biopsy sections of patients with newly diagnosed PMF and MDS (10 each randomly selected for MF-0/1, MF-2, and MF-3) were stained with specific immunofluorescence antibodies to label Gli1, LeptinR, alpha smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) , CD45, and ProcollagenⅠ. Images captured by confocal microscopy were analyzed by Fiji-ImageJ to calculate the cell counts of Gli1 +, LeptinR + cells, and fibrosis-driving cells including α-SMA +, α-SMA +/Gli1 +, α-SMA +/LeptinR +, and ProcollagenⅠ +/CD45 + cells. Results:Patients with PMF and MDS with MF-2/3 had higher LeptinR +, α-SMA +, α-SMA +/Gli1 +, and Procollagen Ⅰ +/CD45 + cell counts compared with those with MF-0/1 (all P values<0.05) . However, patients with PMF with MF-2/3 presented with higher Gli1 + and α-SMA +/LeptinR + cell counts than those with MF-0/1 ( P=0.001 and 0.006) , whereas these cells were similar between patients with MDS with MF-0/1 and MF-2/3 ( P=0.169 and 0.067) . In patients with MF-0/1, all fibrosis-driving cells did not differ between PMF and MDS (all P>0.05) . However, in patients with MF-2/3, Procollagen Ⅰ +/CD45 + cell counts were higher in patients with PMF compared with those with MDS ( P=0.007) , while other fibrosis-driving cell counts were similar between these two groups (all P>0.05) . MF grade and fibrosis-driving cell counts were not correlated with overall survival in patients with either PMF or MDS. Conclusion:α-SMA + cells in patients with PMF originated from both Gli1 + and LeptinR + cells, whereas α-SMA + cells in patients with MDS-MF only originated from Gli1 + cells; patients with PMF had higher ProcollagenⅠ +/CD45 + cell counts than those with MDS-MF.

Objective To investigate the role of endometrial thickness,uterine artery and spiral artery blood flow parameters,endometrial and subendometrial blood flow on pregnancy outcome in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) cycle,compare the difference of the endometrial and subendometrial blood flow typing between the superb micro-vascular imaging (SMI) and power doppler ultrasound (PDUS). Methods Forty-one patients undergoing IVF-ET cycles in our hospital were recruited in this study. Transvaginal color Doppler ultrasound was performed to determine and record endometrial thickness,peak systolic velocity(PSV),end diastolic velocity(EDV),pulse index(PI),resistance index(RI), systolic diastolic ratio(S/D) of uterine artery and spiral artery,and degree endometrial and subendometrial blood flow signals were showed under the two blood flow modes of PDUS and SMI respectively on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin(HCG) injection.The degree of the endometrial and subendometrial blood flow was scored using Applehau classification method.According to the pregnancy outcome,patients were divided into pregnancy group and nonpregnancy group,the difference of the above indicators between the two groups were compared,and the degree of endometrial and subendometrial blood flow under two kinds of blood flow mode were observed.Results ①On the day of HCG injection,patients in pregnancy group had lower RI,PI,S/D of spiral artery than those in the nonpregnancy group (P< 0.05). There were no significant difference between the pregnant group and nonpregnant group in endometrial thickness and the blood flow parameters of uterine artery ( P >0.05). ②On the day of HCG injection,there was significant difference between the pregnant group and nonpregnant group in endometrial and subendometrial blood flow degree with SMI mode ( P =0.005).The patients with type Ⅲ in pregnancy group were most (50% ). ③The endometrial and subendometrial blood flow typing (β= 1.085,OR= 1.085,95% CI=1.040 -8.421, P=0.042) of pregnancy group under SMI mode have an independent predictive value.With increased blood flow typing under endometrial and subendometrial blood flow,the higher the possibility of pregnancy in patients.The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC endometrial and subendometrial blood flow typing SMI mode on the HCG day was 0.746( P =0.008).Conclusions SMI is a new and effective type of Doppler ultrasound technique to evaluate the endometrial and subendometrial blood flow in IVF-ET cycle.On the day of HCG injection,the endometrial and subendometrial blood flow typing in SMI mode may predict pregnancy outcomes in IVF-ET cycles,and guide to choose the best embryo transfer time.

Objective To investigate the preventive effect and mechanisms of Naoshuantong capsule in stroke induced by artificial cold wave in hypertensive rats.Methods A total of 130 SD rats were randomly divided into a sham operation group (n =30),a model control group (n =50) and a Naoshuantong treatment group (n=50;intragastric administration of Naoshuantong,0.5 g/kg,2/d for 7 days).Renovascular hypertensive rats model were established by two-kidney,two clip method.At 13th week after operation,rats were exposed to artificial cold wave for 3 days (12 h light of 22 ℃ and 12 h dark of 4 ℃,3 cycles).The brain tissue samples were extracted at the end of the experiment.Differential protein proteomic techniques were used for the identification,functional classification and preliminary analysis of the differentially expressed protein spots,and Western blot was used for the validation of some key proteins.Results There was no occurrence of stroke in the sham operation group,and the incidence of stroke in the model control group (36.00％,18/50) was significantly higher than that in the Naoshuantong treatment group (18.00％,9 / 50;x2 =4.110,P =0.043).With the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis analysis,6 different proteins were identified from 14 protein spots.Among them,the up-regulated superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) and the down-regulated B-cell lymphoma 10 (Bcl-10) were found to be at the central location of protein interactions,which has been verified by Western blot.Conclusion Naoshuantong can reduce the occurrence of stroke induced by artificial cold wave in renovascular hypertensive rats.SOD2 up-regulating and Bcl-10 downregulating may be involved in the mechanisms of of Naoshuantong in the prevention of cold wave-induced stroke in hypertensive rats.

Objective To evaluate the role of reperfusion injury salvage kinase signaling pathway in reduction of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury by sevoflurane postconditioning in rats.Methods Seventy SPF healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 300-350 g,were divided into 7 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group I/R,sevoflurane postconditioning group (group SP),phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 group (group LY),sevoflurane postconditioning plus LY294002 group (group SPLY),mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase 1/2 inhibitor U0126 group (group U) and sevoflurane postconditioning plus U0126 group (group SPU).Myocardial I/R was induced by occlusion of the left anterior descending branch of the coronary artery for 30 min followed by 120 min of reperfusion.In group SP,1.8％ sevoflurane was inhaled for 5 min starting from the beginning of reperfusion.In LY and U groups,LY294002 0.3 mg/kg and U0126 0.5 mg/kg were intravenously injected,respectively,at 10 min before reperfusion.In SPLY and SPU groups,LY294002 0.3 mg/kg and U0126 0.5 mg/kg were intravenously injected,respectively,at 10 min before reperfusion,and 1.8％ sevoflurane was inhaled for 5 min starting from the beginning of reperfusion.At 15 min of reperfusion,myocardial specimens were obtained from the left ventricular area at risk for determination of the phosphorylation of protein kinase B (Akt) and extra-cellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) (by Western blot) and NAD+ content in myocardial tissues (by fluorescence spectrophotometry).At the end of reperfusion,blood samples were collected from the jugular vein for measurement of serum cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) concentrations (by photoelectric colorimetry),and myocardial specimens were obtained from the left ventricular area at risk for determination of myocardial infarct size (IS).Resuits Compared with group S,the IS and serum cTnI concentrations were significantly increased,the NAD+ content was decreased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the phosphorylation of Akt or ERK1/2 in group I/R (P＞0.05).Compared with group I/R,the IS and serum cTnI concentrations were significantly decreased,and the NAD+ content and phosphorylation of Akt and ERK1/2 were increased in group SP (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in LY,SPLY,U and SPU groups (P＞0.05).Compared with group SP,the IS and serum cTnI concentrations were significantly increased,and the NAD+ content was decreased in SPLY and SPU groups,the phosphorylation of Akt was significantly decreased in group SPLY,and the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 was significantly decreased in group SPU (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which sevoflurane postconditioning reduces myocardial I/R injury may be related to activation of reperfusion injury salvage kinase signaling pathway in rats.
