		                        			Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of first-line anti-tuberculosis (TB) drugs combined with linezolid in treatment of children with tuberculous meningitis (TBM).Methods:A retrospective cohort study design was performed . Eight-nine Children diagnosed as TBM during January 1 st 2016 and December 31 st 2023 in Department of Infectious Disease, Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were enrolled in the study. According to different treatment regimens, children were divided into a group of first-line anti-tuberculous drugs (isoniazid, rifampicin, pyrazinamide, ethambutol (HRZE)) and a group of HRZE and linezolid combination (HRZEL). The efficacy and safety of the 2 regimens were compared and the relationship between linezolid drug concentration and adverse reactions were analyzed. Comparisons between groups were performed using χ2 test and Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The 89 children with TBM included 53 males and 36 females with an onset age of 4.6 (1.4, 9.6) years. There were 27 cases in the HZREL group and 62 cases in the HRZE group. Before treatment, positive rate of interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA) in HRZEL group was lower than that in HRZE group (64% (16/25) vs.92% (55/60), χ2=9.82, P<0.05), but protein level of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) was higher than that in HRZE group (1.2 (1.0, 2.0) vs.0.8 (0.4,1.4) g/L, Z=0.32, P<0.05). By the end of the intensive phase, there were no significant differences of rates of CSF improvement and etiology negativity between HRZEL group and HRZE group (both P>0.05).The 44 TBM children with high CSF protein (>1 g/L) included 25 males and 19 females with an onset age of 6.7 (3.0, 11.8) years. There were 21 cases in the HZREL group and 23 cases in the HRZE group accordingly. Before treatment, there were no significant differences of positive rate of IGRA test and CSF protein level between the 2 groups (62% (13/21) vs. 87% (20/23), 1.7 (1.1, 2.2) vs. 1.5 (1.2, 1.9) g/L, χ2=3.67, Z=0.23, both P>0.05). There were no significant differences in CSF indicators, etiology negativity or imaging remission between the two groups by the end of intensive phase (all P>0.05). Higher frequencies of granulocytopenia, gastrointestinal symptoms as well as withdrawal or change of drugs were found in HRZEL group when compared to those in HRZE group (44% (12/27) vs. 19% (12/62), 7% (2/27) vs. 0, 33% (9/27) vs. 3% (2/62), χ2=6.01, 4.70, 15.74, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of HRZEL regimen is similar to conventional HRZE regimen in children with TBM, but with higher adverse effect. Prudentially evaluating the pros and cons of linezolid in the usage of drug-susceptible TB and carefully monitoring of linezolid associated adverse effects is suggested.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the expression of N6-methyladenosine(m6A) modification-related genes and their possible roles in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with primary gouty arthritis (GA).Methods:Forty-five patients each with acute gout (AG), intermittent gout (IG), and age-and gender-matched healthy controls (HC) were collected from the outpatient clinic of the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of the Affiliated Hospital of Chuanbei Medical College between October and December of 2023. The expression levels of m6A modification-related genes (METTL3、METTL14、WTAP、FTO、ALKBH5、IGF2BP2、IGF2BP3、YTHDF1、YTHDC2) in PBMCs among the 3 groups were detected by RT-qPCR and correlation analysis with clinical indicators was performed. Measurements conforming to normal distribution were analyzed using ANOVA or t-tests, and data were analyzed using the Kruskal-Wallis H-test and Mann-Whitney U-test for data that is not-normaly distributed. The value of m6A modification-related genes for the diagnosis of GA was evaluated using subject characterization curve ROC. Results:①There were statistically significant differences in the expression of IGF2BP2 ( Z=-3.59, P<0.001)、WTAP ( Z=-5.25, P<0.001)、METTL14 ( Z=-3.62, P<0.001)、YTHDF1 ( Z=-2.12, P=0.034)and YTHDC2 ( Z=-2.00, P=0.045) in the disease group and the normal control group. Among them, the expression of IGF2BP2 in the GA group [28.08 (17.99, 47.06)×10 -4] was significantly higher than that in the HC group [19.23 (12.90, 25.78)×10 -4], and the expressions of WTAP、METTL14、YTHDF1 and YTHDC2 in the GA group [298.61 (213.61, 377.80)×10 -4, 9.94 (6.43, 13.46)×10 -4, 52.63 (28.22, 72.77)×10 -4, 40.24 (20.74, 73.32)×10 -4] were significantly lower than those in the HC group [398.45(339.88, 454.89)×10 -4, 13.27(11.07, 15.85)×10 -4, 64.43(43.61, 87.10)×10 -4, 53.11(36.37, 79.28)×10 -4]. Further subgroup analysis revealed statistically significant differences in the expression of IGF2BP2、WTAP、METTL14、YTHDF1 and YTHDC2 among the 3 groups ( H=19.62、31.73、13.14、16.64、28.90, all P≤0.001). The expressions of WTAP and METTL14 in the AG group [311.13(234.96, 426.67)×10 -4, Z=-3.27, P=0.001; 9.64 (5.21, 15.21)×10 -4, Z=-2.71, P=0.008] and IG group [272.27 (203.29, 347.95)×10 -4, Z=-5.78, P<0.001; 10.40(6.88, 12.88)×10 -4, Z=-3.54, P=0.003] were lower than those in the HC group [398.45 (339.88, 454.89)×10 -4, 13.27(11.07, 15.85)×10 -4]. However, there was no significant difference between AG and IG group ( P>0.05). Both YTHDF1 and YTHDC2 were significantly lower in the AG group [38.10(16.19, 56.78)×10 -4, 24.31 (14.35, 42.77)×10 -4] than those in the IG group [64.13 (48.28, 74.40)×10 -4(Z=-3.54, P<0.001, 65.49 (39.89, 91.23)×10 -4(Z=-4.96, P<0.001)] and HC group [64.43 (43.61, 86.92)×10 -4(Z=-3.51, P<0.001), 53.11 (36.37, 79.28)×10 -4(Z=-4.25, P<0.001)]. But there was no statistically significant difference between IG and HC groups ( P>0.05); IGF2BP2 was significantly lower in the AG group [25.32(16.40, 40.43)×10 -4, Z=-2.46, P=0.014] and HC group [19.23 (12.90, 25.78)×10 -4, Z=-4.54, P<0.001] than in the IG group [31.10(22.60, 49.58)×10 -4], but the comparison between AG and HC showed no statistically significant difference( P>0.05). ②Spearman correlation analysis showed that in GA patients, the expression of IGF2BP2、METTL14 and YTHDF1 was positively correlated with plasma glucose、blood uric acid(sUA) and total cholesterol level respectively ( r=0.22, P=0.037; r=0.38, P=0.003; r=0.23, P=0.034), and WTAP was negatively correlated with GLU ( r=-0.25, P=0.020). ③The ROC curve for the joint prediction of the five differential genes showed that the 95% CI for area under the curve in GA was 0.90 (0.84, 0.95). Conclusion:The m6A modification-related genes are abnormally expressed in GA and are correlated with clinical indicators such as GLU and UA, which are hypothesized to be involved in the pathogenesis of GA and have a certain reference value for the evaluation of metabolism in GA patients.

Results:①Compared with the mRNA expression levels of ATG12(0.007 6±0.005 9), ATG16(0.003 1±0.002 2) and LC3(0.038 2±0.017 1) before treatment, after 24 weeks treatment with abatacept, the mRNA expression levels of ATG12 (0.011 4±0.003 1) and ATG16 (0.004 2±0.000 7) increased ( t=-2.49, P=0.042; t=-2.15, P=0.038), and the mRNA expression level of LC3 (0.022 6±0.008 3) was decreased ( t=3.28, P=0.003) after 24 weeks of abatacept treatment.②After 24 weeks, the expression level of ATG16 mRNA in the remission group (0.004 8±0.000 8) was higher than that in the non-remission group (0.003 8±0.000 3) ( t=-3.41, P=0.003). The expression level of LC3 mRNA in remission group (0.027 3±0.007 3) was lower than that in non-remission group (0.017 9±0.006 5) ( t=3.69, P=0.017). ③ATG5 mRNA expression level was positively correlated with TJC, ESR and anti-CCP antibody ( r=0.75, P=0.049; r=0.43, P=0.044; r=0.97, P=0.011). The expression level of ATG12 mRNA was negatively correlated with DAS28, ESR and hsCRP ( r=-0.46, P=0.025; r=-0.51, P=0.026; r=-0.41, P=0.031). The expression level of ATG16 mRNA was positively correlated with ESR and hsCRP ( r=0.50, P=0.030; r=0.40, P=0.024). The expression level of Beclin-1 mRNA was significantly higher than TJC, RF-IgG and anti-CCP antibody were negatively correlated ( r=-0.51, P=0.025; r=-0.42, P=0.035; r=-0.81, P=0.043). The expression level of LC-3 mRNA was positively correlated with ESR and hsCRP ( r=0.55, P=0.028; r=0.56, P=0.024). ④Compared with the protein expression level before the treatment, of ATG12 (0.675 3±0.036 3), which (1.547 7±0.080 5) increased after 24 weeks of treatment ( t=-7.80, P=0.001). Compared with the protein expression levels of ATG16 (0.817 1±0.089 0), LC3Ⅱ (0.807 1±0.072 1) and IL-1β (1.129 7±0.118 9) before treatment, 24 weeks after, the protein expression levels of ATG16 (0.424 6±0.103 5), LC3Ⅱ (0.353 7±0.056 9) and IL-1β (0.346 7±0.050 8) decreased ( t=2.62, P=0.042; t=2.88, P=0.045; t=2.25, P=0.038) 24 weeks after treatment. Conclusion:Autophagy related genes is associated with several clinical presentations and disease activity. The results of this study suggest that autophageius are involved in the pathogenesis of RA. Abatacept may be a potential autophage modulator by regulating autophagy related genes including ATG12、ATG16 and LC3.

Quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect mRNA expression level of JAK3/STAT5 related genes (JAK3, STAT5a, STAT5b). Enzyme linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect interleukin-2 (IL-2) concentration in subject′s plasma. Measurement data among the three groups that was in accordance with normal distribution was analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, pairwise comparisons using LSD, non-normal distribution data was analyzed by Mann-Whitney test or Kruskal-Wallis H test, and correlation analysis between variables was analyzed using Spearman correlation analysis. Results:① The mRNA expression levels of JAK3, STAT5a and STAT5b were significantly different among the three groups ( F=50.13, P<0.01; F=7.573, P=0.000 7; F=12.14, P<0.01), of which the JAK3 mRNA expression level in the HC group [(606±65)×10 -4] was significantly higher than that in the AG group [(103±13)×10 -4] and IG group [(114±24)×10 -4], and the difference was statistically significant (both P<0.01), while the STAT5a mRNA expression level in the AG group [(89±9)×10 -4] was significantly higher than that in the IG group [(59±4)×10 -4] and HC group [(61±4)×10 -4], and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.002, P=0.003 9), and the expression level of STAT5b mRNA in HC group [(60±5)×10 -4] was significantly lower than that in AG group [(95±7)×10 -4] and IG group [(98±7)×10 -4], and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.000 2, P<0.000 1). ② The difference of IL-2 concentration in plasma among the three groups was statistically significant ( F=22.87, P<0.01), and the serum IL-2 concentration in the AG group [(87.9±8.4) pg/ml] was significantly higher than that in the IG group [(32±4) pg/ml] and HC group [(44±4) pg/ml], and the difference was statistically significant (both P<0.01). ③ Spearman correlation analysis showed that the mRNA expression of STAT5a and STAT5b was positively correlated with the absolute value of neutrophils in patients with gout ( r=0.282, P<0.05; r=0.257, P<0.05). Conclusion:The IL-2/JAK3/STAT5 signaling pathway is involved in the occurrence and development of gout, suggesting that this pathway may play a key role in the pathogenesis of gout.

		                        			Objective:To explore the three long non-coding RNA (long non-coding ribonucleic acid, the expression of lncRNA NR_002578, NR_038264 and NR_046252) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with primary gout arthritis (GA) and their clinical value.Methods:Peripheral venous blood, clinical data and laboratory data were collected from 60 gout patients (including 30 AG patients in acute stage and 30 IG patients in intermittent stage) and 50 healthy subjects (HC group). Quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of PBMCs of 3 lncRNAs in GA and HC groups, and the differences of 3 lncRNAs expression levels in different groups were compared and the correlation analysis was conducted with clinical indicators. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was constructed to evaluate the possible efficacy of lncRNAs in gout diagnosis. The measurement data conforming to normal distribution were tested by t test or variance analysis, and non-normal distribution were tested by Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis H test. The comparison among the three groups was conducted by SNK. Results:① The expression of NR_002578 in GA was significantly lower than that in HC [60.2(16.8, 100.1)×10 -3vs 149.5 (92.6, 221.8)×10 -3, Z=-5.75, P<0.001], subgroup analysis showed that the expression of NR_002578 in AG was significantly lower than that in IG and HC [34.3(8.6, 72.8)×10 -3vs 88.3(47.7, 109.6)×10 -3vs 149.5(92.6, 221.8)×10 -3, H=40.12, P<0.001], and lower in IG than that in HC ( P<0.001). The expression of NR_046252 in GA was significantly higher than that in HC [6.5(2.1, 21.5)×10 -3vs 2.1(1.2, 3.5)×10 -3, Z=-4.21, P<0.001]. The expression of NR_046252 in AG and IG were higher than that of the HC group [6.3(2.0, 12.0)×10 -3vs 7.2(2.4, 30.6)×10 -3vs 2.1(1.2, 3.5)×10 -3, H=21.33, P<0.001], but there was no significant difference between the AG and IG group ( P>0.05). ② Spearman correlation analysis showed that NR_002578 expression was negatively correlated with erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) ( r=-0.29, P=0.024)and hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) ( r=-0.35, P=0.006) in gout patients. ③ The areas under ROC curve of NR_002578 and NR_046252 for diagnosing gout were 0.819 and 0.750, respectively. Conclusion:The abnormal expression of NR_002578 and NR_046252 in gout patients suggests that NR_002578 may be involved in the pathogenesis of gout.

The operative time, postoperative LLD, Harris score, forgotten joint score-12 (FJS-12) and the difference between preoperative and postoperative LLD between the two groups were compared, and the correlation between surgical methods and the change of hip length was also evaluated. Results:The operation time of the robot group was 73.3±14.1 min and which was 59.3±12.6 min in conventional THA group ( t=2.732, P=0.003). In the robot group, the postoperative LLD was 2.3±3.4 mm, which was less than that of the conventional group 6.7±5.4 mm ( t=3.521, P < 0.001). When the absolute value of LLD was larger than 5 mm as an abnormal value, it was 2.6% (1/38) in the robot group and 47.3% (18/38) in the conventional group. The difference of hip length (HL) in planning and post-operation in the robot group was 2.8±2.2 mm, which was smaller than that in the conventional THA group 7.9±5.3 mm ( t=2.357, P < 0.001). In addition, there was a correlation between the change of hip length results and the postoperative measurement of hip length in the robot group ( r=0.983, P < 0.001). At the last follow-up, Harris score and FJS-12 were recorded in the robot group and coventional group. The scores were 83.1±5.3 and 32.5±4.9 respectively in the robot group, 82.9±7.2 and 31.9±6.7 in the conventional group, respectively. There was no significant difference between the two groups ( t=0.221, 0.356; P=0.819, 0.731). Postoperative bleeding occurred in 1 case in the robot group with postoperative suture healed well. The fracture of the posterior wall of the acetabulum was found in the conventional group and the patient avoids weight bearing 4 weeks after operation. The postoperative recovery was good and no other related complications were found. Conclusion:Robot-assisted THA can accurately restore the length of both legs and reduce LLD compared with conventional THA. The real-time monitoring of LLD during robot operation can give the operator an accurate reference.

		                        			Objective:To evaluate the role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in hydrogen-induced inhibition of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammatory responses in mouse macrophages.Methods:The mouse RAW264.7 macrophages cultured in vitro were divided into 4 groups ( n=24 each) according to the random number table method: control group (C group), LPS group (L group), hydrogen-rich solution plus LPS group (H+ L group), and hydrogen-rich solution plus LPS plus HIF-1α inhibitor 2-methoxyestradiol (2ME2) group (H+ L+ M group). LPS 1 μg/ml was added, and the cells were incubated for 6 h in group L. In group L+ H, LPS was added first, the medium was changed to 0.6 mmol/L hydrogen-rich solution, and cells were incubated for 6 h. In group H+ L+ M, 2ME2 10 μmol/L was given first, cells were then incubated for 30 min, LPS and hydrogen-rich solution were added, and cells were incubated for 6 h. Western blot was used to determine the expression of HIF-1α, Beclin-1, Bcl-2/E1B-19 kDa interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) and LC3.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-1β in the supernatant.The number of autophagosomes was observed using a transmission electron microscope. Results:Compared with group C, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the supernatant were significantly increased, the expression of HIF-1α, Beclinl and BNIP3 in macrophages was up-regulated, the ratio of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ was increased, and the number of autophagosomes was increased in group L ( P<0.05). Compared with group L, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were significantly decreased, the expression of HIF-1α, Beclin-1 and BNIP3 in macrophages was up-regulated, LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio was increased, and the number of autophagosomes was increased in group H+ L ( P<0.05). Compared with group H+ L, the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β in the supernatant were significantly decreased, the expression of HIF-1α, Beclin-1, and BNIP3 in macrophages was down-regulated, and the ratio of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ was decreased, and the number of autophagosomes was decreased in group H+ L+ M ( P<0.05). Conclusion:HIF-1α-mediated activation of autophagy is involved in the process of hydrogen-induced inhibition of LPS-induced inflammatory responses in mouse macrophages.
