In January 2023,the American Heart Association(AHA)released A Scientific Statement:Cancer Therapy Related Hypertension,provided an overview of the mechanisms and clinical management of anticancer therapy related hypertension.Contemporary anticancer drugs are mostly at the expense of cardiovascular toxicities,one of the most common side effects is hypertension,especially vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitors,as well as tyrosine kinase inhibitors and proteasome inhibitors.Cancer therapy related hypertension is often dose limiting,and is usually reversible after interruption or discontinuation of treatment.The exact molecular mechanisms underlying hypertension are unclear,recent discoveries indicate an important role for decreased nitric oxide,increased endothelin-1,endothelial dysfunction,increased sympathetic outflow,and microvascular rarefaction.Based on the International Cardio Oncology Society(IC-OS),this article provides an interpretation of the diagnosis and management of hypertension related to cancer treatment.Insufficient evidence exists supporting an antihypertensive medication strategy specific to patients with anticancer therapy induced hypertension,therefore,antihypertensive management should follow current guidelines for the general population..Multidisciplinary cooperation is needed to optimize management to ensure the optimal therapeutic effect from cancer treatment while minimizing competing cardiovascular toxicities.

Objective:To investigate the surgical treatment strategies of mesh infection after tension-free repair of inguinal hernia.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 88 patients with mesh infection after tension-free inguinal hernia repair who were admitted to Beijing Chaoyang Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from March 2013 to May 2018 were collected. There were 85 males and 3 females, aged from 14-84 years, with an average age of 58 years. All patients underwent debridement. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and postoperative situations; (2) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination or telephone interview was conducted to detect wound healing, recurrence of inguinal hernia, postoperative pain and reinfection after operation up to July 2019. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range). Count data was described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative situations: 88 patients underwent debridement successfully. Of the 88 patients, 71 cases underwent laparoscopic exploration before undergoing debridement, and 17 cases underwent open debridement directly. Of the 71 patients who underwent laparoscopic exploration, 63 cases had intact peritoneum with no infection observed in intestine and bladder after laparoscopic abdominal exploration, and then were transferred to open debridement. Four cases with small bowel fistula confirmed by laparoscopic exploration were transferred to open debridement combined with small bowel resection and anastomosis after separating tissue adhesion. Three cases with mesh infection confirmed by laparoscopic exploration underwent the treatment of opening peritoneum and removing the infection mesh through posterior approach under laparoscopy. One case with bladder fistula confirmed by laparoscopic exploration underwent bladder repair after removing infection mesh under laparoscopy. Of the 88 patients, 82 cases had mesh infection including 31 cases with mesh completely removed, 51 cases with the infected part of mesh removed; 28 cases had the sutures co-infected removed. Six of the 88 patients who only suffered from superficial infection underwent the treatment of removal of infected sinus tract. Of the 84 patients who underwent open debridement, 65 cases underwent primary suture after indwelling drainage tube, 19 cases kept incision opening including 13 cases undergoing continuous drainage with vacuum sealing drainage device after postoperative dressing change and 6 cases undergoing the treatment of dressing change. The operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss and duration of postoperative hospital stay of 88 patients were 60 minutes(range, 15-175 minutes), 14 mL(range, 2-200 mL) and 22 days (range, 1-101 days), respectively. All patients underwent postoperative extubation successfully. There were 56 cases of class A healing, 15 cases of class B healing and 17 cases of class C healing in 88 patients. Seventy-one of 88 patients underwent bacterial culture examination of intraoperative pyogenic fluid and sutures, of which 27 cases had negative results, 32 cases had staphylococcus aureus infection, 5 cases had staphylococcus haemolyticus infection, 5 cases had pseudomonas aeruginosa infection, 5 cases had enterococcus faecium infection, 4 cases had staphylococcus hominis subsp infection, 3 cases had proteus mirabilis infection, 2 cases had serratia marcescens infection, 2 cases had streptococcus agalactiae infection, 2 cases had escherichia coli infection and 1 case had achromobacter xylose oxidation subsp infection. There were some cases undergoing more than 2 kinds of bacterial infection. (2) Follow-up: 88 patients underwent postoperative follow-up for 14 to 76 months, with a media follow-up time of 32 months. Of the 88 patients, 5 cases underwent postoperative recurrence of inguinal hernia including 3 undergoing transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair, 1 undergoing open preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair and 1 undergoing partial extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair. One case had postoperative pain with the visual simulation score of 2-4 and received no special treatment. Seventeen cases had postoperative reinfection, in which 3 achieved wound healing after dressing change and 14 achieved wound healing after surgical removal of the infected tissue completely including 7 cases with residual mesh infection and 2 cases with residual suture infection.Conclusions:Surgical strategy of mesh infection after tension-free repair of inguinal hernia is complicated. Removal of the infected mesh by surgery is an effective treatment.

Objective To construct a CaME141G fusion protein-expressing plasmid,and to express,purify,and identify the activity of the recombinant protein. Methods The 141st site of the wild type CaM,E (GAG),was mutated to G (GGG),using site-specific mutagenesis technology. Escherichia coli BL-21 was transformed with the mutant plasmid. The GST-CaME141G fusion protein was mass-cultured and induced for expression. Subsequently,the GST-CaME141G fusion protein was purified using GS-4B beads. PreScission protease was applied to remove the GST,the Bradford method used to determine the concentration of purified protein,and SDS-PAGE used to detect its relative molecular weight and purity. The GST pull-down assay was used to study the protein's biological activity. Results The CaME141G protein was successfully purified at a high concentration and purity. The protein could interact with PreIQ protein fragments from the myocardial CaV1. 2 calcium channel C terminal,in a CaME141G concentration-dependent manner. Therefore,CaME141G has the ability to bind with the CaV1. 2 calcium channel. Conclusion This study successfully constructed a CaME141G fusion protein-expressing plasmid and purified the CaME141G protein. This lays a foundation for regulating the function of CaM mutations in the myocardial CaV1. 2 calcium channel,and for the study of its relationship with diseases of the cardiovascular system.
