Objective:To evaluate the effect of statins combined with PCSK9 inhibitors on coronary artery atherosclerotic plaque, as well as to verify the lipid-lowering effect of the combined therapy.Methods:A computerized search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Wanfang, and CNKI databases was conducted to retrieve published literature from inception to December 20, 2022. The English search terms utilized included "PCSK9 inhibitors," "Alirocumab," "Evolocumab," "plaque," "IVUS," and "OCT." The corresponding Chinese search terms were "PCSK9 inhibitors," "plateau," "intravascular ultrasound," and "optical coherence tomography." The literature that examined the effect of statins alone or in combination with PCSK9 inhibitors on coronary atherosclerotic plaques using intravascular ultrasound or optical coherence tomography was identified. The collected data were subsequently processed using Review Manager (Revman) version 5.4.Results:In the final analysis, nine studies involving 1912 patients were included. The analysis results revealed that compared with statins alone, statins combined with PCSK9 inhibitors significantly reduced the percentage of atherosclerotic volume ( MD: -2.08 mm 3, 95% CI: -2.94 to -1.23 mm 3, P < 0.001), accelerated the regression of atherosclerotic volume ( MD: -1.13 mm 3, 95% CI: -1.49 to -0.77 mm 3, P < 0.001), slightly, but not significantly, reduced the overall atherosclerotic volume ( MD: -6.42 mm 3, 95% CI: -14.34-1.51 mm 3, P = 0.110). Nevertheless, the combined therapy contributed to a significant reduction in atherosclerotic volume ( MD: -5.16 mm 3, 95% CI: -7.09 to -3.23 mm 3, P < 0.001) and significantly increased the fiber cap thickness of thin cap plaques ( MD: 8.46 μm, 95% CI: 5.13-11.79 μm, P < 0.001). Additionally, this combined therapy significantly lowered blood lipid levels. Conclusion:The combination of statins and PCSK9 inhibitors can significantly improve the characteristics and phenotype of atherosclerotic plaques and significantly reduce blood lipid levels. For patients with high cardiovascular risk, it is recommended to initiate treatment with statins combined with PCSK9 inhibitors as soon as possible and maintain it for a long time to ensure more benefits.

Objective To explore the value of 3D amide proton transfer weighted imaging(APTWI),diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)and the combination for differentiating benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumors.Methods Non-contrast MRI,APTWI and DWI of pelvis or lower extremity were prospectively acquired in 96 patients with bone and soft tissue tumors.MTRasym and ADC maps were obtained based on APTWI and DWI calculation with an offset of 3.5 ppm,respectively,and the maximum asymmetric magnetization transfer rate(MTRasym)(MTRasymmax),the mean MTRasym(MTRasymmean)and the minimum MTRasym(MTRasymmin),as well as the maximum apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)(ADCmax),the mean ADC(ADCmean)and the minimum ADC(ADCmin)values were measured.The above parameters were compared between benign and malignant tumors.Then receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the efficacy of APTWI,DWI and the combination.Results Among 96 patients,there were 41 benign and 55 malignant pelvic or lower limb bone and soft tissue tumors.In benign tumors,MTRasym(3.5 ppm)values,including MTRasymmax.MTRasymmean and MTRasymmin were significantly higher,whereas ADC values including ADCmax,ADCmeanand ADCmin were significantly lower than those in malignant tumors(all P＜0.05).AUC of MTRasymmax and ADCmin for differentiating benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumors was 0.791 and 0.873,respectively,being not statistically different(P=0.122),but both lower than that of their combination(AUC=0.944,P＜0.001,P=0.041).Conclusion APTWI combined with DWI had high efficacy for differentiating benign and malignant bone and soft tissue tumors.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of amide proton transfer-weighted (APTw) imaging with time-dependent diffusion MRI (td-dMRI) in the diagnosis of malignant breast lesions.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study. The clinical, pathological and imaging data of patients with breast lesions admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March to August 2023 were prospectively analyzed. All patients firstly underwent T 2WI, diffusion-weighted imaging, followed by dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI), and finally APTw imaging and td-dMRI were performed for breast lesions using DCE-MRI as reference. Reconstructed images from APTw imaging measured lesions with a frequency shift of 3.5 ppm asymmetric magnetic susceptibility MTR asym(+3.5 ppm). The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values at different oscillating frequency gradients (ADC PGSE, ADC 17 Hz, ADC 33 Hz values) were measured using reconstructed td-dMRI images. Independent sample t-test was used to compare APTw imaging, td-dMRI parameter differences between benign and malignant breast tumors, breast malignant tumors with different molecular types [estrogen receptor (ER) negative and positive, progesterone receptor (PR) negative and positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER-2) negative and positive, proliferation index (Ki-67) low and high expression] and different histological grades (grade Ⅱ and Ⅲ). Receiver operating characteristic curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the efficacy of APTw imaging and td-dMRI parameters in differentiating benign and malignant breast tumors, molecular classification and histological grading of malignant breast lesions. Results:There were 171 lesions in 171 patients, including 103 malignant lesions and 68 benign lesions. Histological grades were grade Ⅱ in 51 cases and grade Ⅲ in 38 cases of 89 cases of invasive carcinoma. Totally 98 cases of malignant lesions were included in molecular typing analysis, 36 cases were ER negative and 62 cases were ER positive. PR was negative in 51 cases and positive in 47 cases. There were 33 negative HER-2 patients, 65 positive HER-2 patients. There were 50 cases of low Ki-67 expression and 48 cases of high Ki-67 expression. The MTR asym(+3.5 ppm) value of malignant breast lesions was higher than that of benign lesions ( t=5.76, P<0.001), and the ADC PGSE, ADC 17 Hz and ADC 33 Hz values were lower than those of benign breast lesions ( t was 4.84, 4.62, 4.01, respectively, all P<0.001). MTR asym(+3.5 ppm) had the highest AUC value (0.83) and the highest specificity (90.38%), and ADC PGSE had the highest sensitivity (85.86%). There were no significant differences in MTR asym(+3.5 ppm), ADC PGSE, ADC 17 Hz and ADC 33 Hz between grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅲ histological grades of malignant breast lesions (all P>0.05). The ADC PGSE value of ER negative was higher than that of ER positive ( t=2.34, P=0.018), and the AUC for distinguishing ER positive from negative was 0.64. The ADC PGSE and ADC 17 Hz values of PR negative were higher than those of PR positive ( t=2.87, 2.81, P=0.004, 0.006, respectively), and their AUCs for identifying PR positive versus negative breast malignant lesions were 0.68 and 0.67, respectively. The ADC 33 Hz value of negative HER-2 was lower than that of positive HER-2 ( t=3.00, P=0.003), and the AUC for distinguishing positive and negative HER-2 was 0.67. There were no significant differences in other parameters among different subtypes of breast malignant lesions (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with td-dMRI, APTw imaging is more effective in differentiating benign and malignant lesions of breast tumors, and ADC values at different gradient oscillation frequencies obtained by td-dMRI show better diagnostic efficacy in differentiating different molecular types of breast malignant lesions.

Objective To investigate the mechanism of Guizhi Tongluo Tablets(GZTLP)on improving atherosclerosis in APOE knockout mice by regulating neutrophil extracellular trapping nets(NETs).Methods After modeling,24 APOE knockout mice aged 8 weeks were randomly divided into 4 groups:GZTLP high-dose group,low-dose group,model control group and normal control group,with 6 mice in each group.GZTLP was given 1.87 mg·g-1 and 0.47 mg·g-1 intragastric administration in high-dose group and low-dose group,respectively.The normal control group and model control group were given 0.9%sodium chloride solution intragastric administration for 6 weeks,and the lipid plaque deposition in aorta was observed by gross oil red O staining.Lipid deposition in aortic root was observed by oil red O staining.The pathological changes of lipid plaques in aortic root were observed by HE staining.The levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α)in peripheral blood of mice were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).The expression of lymphocyte antigen 6G(Ly6G),myeloperoxidase(MPO)and citrulinated histone(Cit-H3)in plaques of the aortic arch and the colocalization of Ly6G,MPO and Cit-H3 were detected by immunofluorescence assay.Results Compared with the normal control group,the aorta of mice in the model control group showed serious lipid plaque deposition,morphological damage,and a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration,the contents of serum inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α were increased,and the protein expressions of Ly6G,Cit-H3 and MPO were significantly increased.Compared with model control group,GZTLP group reduced the amount of lipid plaque deposition in aorta,the arrangement of aortic cells was more regular,the inflammatory cell infiltration was improved,and the contents of serum inflammatory factors IL-1β and TNF-α were significantly decreased(P<0.05).The colocalization and the protein expression of Ly6G,MPO and Cit-H3 were significantly decreased in aortic tissues(P<0.01).Conclusions GZTLP can improve atherosclerosis,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of neutrophil extracellular trapping nets.

Objective Sequencing depth is a key parameter in next generation sequencing,which is closely related to the accuracy of sequencing results.Forensic biological evidence examination requires extremely high accuracy.It is crucial to scientifically and reasonably set the sequencing depth analysis threshold for forensic next generation sequencing testing.Methods This study used targeted sequencing data of microhaplotypes from 50 samples with known genotypes.By calculating the accuracy,precision,recall,and F1 score of each locus under various threshold conditions,two types of analysis threshold setting methods,which were based on fixed read count and fixed sequencing depth ratio,were studied extensively.Results The results showed that false positives were observed when the analysis threshold was set at 50×or 100×.When the analysis threshold was set at 200×,false negatives were observed.When the analysis threshold was set at 1.5%,3.0%,or 4.5%,false positives were observed.This study further proposed a third type of analysis threshold setting method,which was based on sequencing depth ratio scatter plots.With this method,no false positive or false negative was observed in the results.This article then explored four factors that lead to significant differences in the sequencing depth of forensic next generation sequencing experiments,compared with the analysis threshold setting method for capillary electrophoresis technology,and discussed the correlation between analysis thresholds and the ability to distinguish mixed DNA.Conclusion Employing the sequencing depth ratio scatter plot method to set analysis threshold has significant application value in next generation sequencing-based forensic genetic marker genotyping.
