MiRNAs are a class of small non-coding RNAs,which regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally by partial complementary base pairing.Aberrant miRNA expressions have been reported in tumor tissues and peripheral blood of cancer patients.In recent years,artificial intelligence algorithms such as machine learning and deep learning have been widely used in bioinformatic research.Compared to traditional bioinformatic tools,miRNA target prediction tools based on artificial intelligence algorithms have higher accuracy,and can successfully predict subcellular localization and redistribution of miRNAs to deepen our understanding.Additionally,the construction of clinical models based on artificial intelligence algorithms could significantly improve the mining efficiency of miRNA used as biomarkers.In this article,we summarize recent development of bioinformatic miRNA tools based on artificial intelligence algorithms,focusing on the potential of machine learning and deep learning in cancer-related miRNA research.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and clinical efficacy of in situ vessels anastomosis in treatment of severe degloving injury of hand, and long-term follow-up observation of the clinical efficacy.Methods:From January 2016 to December 2018, 11 patients of severe degloving avulsion injuries were treated in the Department of Hand and Microsurgery of Tianjin Hospital. Six patients had right hands injuried and 5 in left hands. The age of patients ranged from 16 to 51 years old, with an average age of 31.5 years old. All injuries accompanied with metacarpal or phalangeal fractures. In situ vascular anastomosis was applied to all patients in the replantation surgery. Long-time follow-ups and observation of postoperative appearance, sensory and hand function recovery were conducted through visits of outpatient clinic.Results:All operations were successful. All degloving tissues survived after replantation in 6 patients. Partial palm skin necrosis and thumb nail bed necrosis occurred in 1 patient, and treated with skin grafting and abdominal flap transfer. Thumb nail bed necrosis occurred in 2 patient, in which 1 patient repaired by abdominal pedicled flap transfer, and the other patient repair by local flap transfer. One patient had dorsal hand skin necrosis, and repaired with free anterolateral thigh flap(ALTF). One patient had palm hand skin necrosis, and repaired with free skin grafting. There were 1 patient had index and middle finger necrosis and 1 with little finger necrosis. And finger amputation was performed later. Mean follow-up period was 22 (15-36) months. According to the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, 6 patients were in excellent, 3 in good and 2 in fair. According to the standard of British Medical Research Council (BMRC), sensation recovered to S 4 in 5 patients, S 3 in 5 patients and S 2 in 1 patient. Conclusion:Using precise microsurgical techniques to directly anastomose in situ vessels in the treatment of severe hand degloving injuries can achieve satisfactory long-term recovery of hand function.

Background: The incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is increasing yearly, some of the IBD patients have extraintestinal manifestations (EIM), and EIM has impact on the treatment of IBD. Aims: To summarize the clinical characteristics of IBD patients associated with EIM, and evaluate the therapeutic effect of infliximab (IFX). Methods: The clinical data of IBD patients associated with EIM from January 2010 to December 2020 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University were retrospectively analyzed, and the therapeutic effect of IFX was investigated. Results: In 811 patients with IBD, 50 (6.17%) patients had EIM. The commonly seen EIM was arthritis (78.00%) and erythema nodosum (26.00%); 52.00% had one EIM; 68.42% of UC patients with EIM involved E3, and 50.00% of CD patients with EIM involved L3. A total of 21 patients received IFX treatment, 2 weeks after medication, HB and ALB significantly increased, while ESR, CRP and PLT significantly decreased. Twenty⁃two weeks after medication, 83.33% of UC patients turned mild, and 70.00% of CD patients entered the remission phase. After the use of IFX, the first disappearance time of arthritis was significantly decreased when compared with those without using IFX (2.50 days vs. 10.50 days, P<0.05). The median time for the first disappearance of arthritis in patients with elevated CRP was significantly decreased than in patients with normal CRP (3.00 days vs. 9.00 days, P<0.05). Conclusions: Arthritis and erythema nodosum are common EMI in patients with IBD, and the treatment with IFX can significantly shorten the time of the first disappearance of some EIM.

OBJECTIVETo study the drug sensitivity and analyze the replication kinetics of HIV-1 B and CRF07_BC subtypes with I132L or T139K/R mutations.

METHODSThe amino acids in position 132 and 139 of reverse transcriptase (RT) region of the infectious clone PNL4-3 (HIV-1 B subtype) were changed to L and T/R through site mutagenesis. Combined with the previously constructed infectious clone of HIV-1 CRF07_BC subtype with I132L and T139K/R mutations in RT region, mutated PNL4-3 infectious clones were transfected into 293T cells. The infection ability of mutated clones was detected. The drug sensitivity to NNRTIs (TMC-125, DLV, NVP, EFV) and the properties of replication kinetics were also evaluated.

RESULTSThe mutated infectious clones were constructed including PNL4-3-RT-I132L, PNL4-3-RT-T139K and PNL4-3-RT-T139R. The I132L and T139K/R mutations in HIV-1 B and CRF07_BC infectious clones reduced their drug sensitivity to NNRTIs, which accompanied with the increase of EC50 (concentration for 50% of maximal effect). In subtype CRF07_BC, I132L mutation increased EC50 by 2.55, 19.35, 28.05, 6.13 fold, T139K mutation increased EC50 by 4.67, 3.66, 7.35, 3.30 fold, and T139R mutation increased EC50 by 1.82, 4.69, 25.12, 1.89 fold, respectively. In subtype B, I132L increased EC50 by 3.91, 4.61, 6.38, 3.56 fold, T139K increased EC50 by 3.13, 1.78, 2.26, 2.10 fold, T139R increased EC50 by 5.79, 3.99, 5.78, 2.75 fold, respectively. Similar as wild type PNL4-3, the replication ability of 132L/139K/139R mutated infectious clones reached the peak in day 11. However, compared to wild type BC-WT, I132L/T139R mutations delayed the peak time to day 14 and 21.

CONCLUSIONThe novel drug resistance associated mutations I132L and T139K/R can reduce the drug sensitivity to NNRTIs in subtype B and CRF07_BC, and the replication ability of CRF_07BC declined by I132L mutation.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effect and safety of topical propranolol hydrochloride gel for treatment of infantile hemangioma. METHODS Thirty nude mice (BALA/c, nu/nu) were divided into three groups, experimental group, control group and normal group. Human hemangioma endothelial cells cultured in vitro were injected subcutaneously in experimental group and control group to establish infantile hemangioma model. Topical propranolol hydrochloride gel was applied on the surface of the hemangioman in experimental group and normal group. Tumor volumn change and the skin situations (edema, erythema, ulceration) were observed at different periods. 45 days after cell injection, the mice were killed and plasma concentration was detected in the experimental group and the control group by high performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detector, and tumors were subjected to histopathologic examination and immunohistochemistry for CD31 and CD34. The correlation between volumes and plasma concentration was statistically analyzed with SPSS 13.0 paired samples t test with α = 0.05 as statistical standard.

RESULTSAt 45 days, the volume of the tumor in control group was (366.57 ± 17.08) mm³, which has a significant difference as compared to the experimental group (13.36 ± 2.09) mm³ (P < 0.05); and the plasma concentration was (16.83 ± 1.53) ng/ml in experimental group, and (18.42 ± 2.21) ng/ ml in normal group (P > 0.05 ). Topical propranolol hydrochloride gel (3%) has no irritation to nude mice's skin.

CONCLUSIONSTopical application of 3% propranolol hydrochloride gel is effective and safe for the treatment of infantile hemangioma.

Objective To determine the random spot albuminuria to creatinine ratio (ACR) of normal pregnant women , to track the pregnancy outcome , and to discuss the predictive value of ACR in women with hy-pertensive disorders complicating pregnancy (HDCP). Methods Except for 87 pregnant women suffering from HDCP, 2 038 pregnant women were enrolled in this study. ACR, routine examinations of blood and urine, blood biochemical, 24-hr urinary protein were determined. Results ACR, but not 24-hr urinary protein level,was sig-nificantly higher in women with HDCP. There was positive correlation between the ACR and 24-hr urinary protein quantitation. Age, gestational weeks, ACR, red blood cells, fasting plasma glucose, serum creatinine, total pro-tein were the independent risk factors for HDCP. The sensitivity , specificity and optimal cut off value of ACR for predicting HDCP were 0.78, 0.63, 1.46 mg/mmol. Conclusions There was positive correlation between ACR and 24-hr urinary protein quantitation , and ACR provided a more sensitive pathway for early predictionof HDCP.
