BACKGROUND:Synthetic polymers,such as polypropylene and polyester,used for the treatment of abdominal wall defects not only lack biodegradability and bioactivity but also fail to meet the demands of complex and irregular wounds.Therefore,finding bioactive materials with low immunogenicity and good histocompatibility has become a hot spot in the repair of abdominal wall defects. OBJECTIVE:To prepare methacryloyl modified dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel and explore its potential application in abdominal wall defect. METHODS:(1)The porcine dermis was acellular with 0.25%trypsin and 1%Triton X-100 in turn to obtain the dermal extracellular matrix.After pepsin digestion and methacrylic anhydride modification,the methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel was formed by photocrosslinking.The microscopic morphology of the hydrogel was observed by scanning electron microscope,and its rheological properties,swelling properties and other physical and chemical properties were tested.(2)Mice fibroblasts(L929)were inoculated into methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel to detect the cell compatibility.(3)Totally 12 SD rats were randomly divided into two groups(n=6)to create abdominal wall defect model with peritoneum preserved.The defect site of the polypropylene group was filled with polypropylene material,and the hydrogel group was filled with methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel.The wound skin of both groups was covered with polypropylene material.The wound healing was observed and histological analysis was carried out. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Enzymatic hydrolysis had a good decellularization effect on porcine dermis after decellularization,and the original glycosaminoglycans and collagen were well retained.Scanning electron microscope observation revealed that the dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel presented loose and porous structure.The aperture was between 70 and 120 μm.The swelling ratio was(16.88±3.24)%and the water absorption was(94.24±1.11)%.The rheological property test showed that the methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel was stable and had shear thinning characteristics,with injectability.(2)CCK-8 assay and live/dead staining showed that methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel had good cell compatibility.(3)The results of animal experiments showed that the skin wound healing rate of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at 7,10,and 14 days after operation(P<0.05).Hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining of skin and muscle tissue exhibited that compared with the polypropylene group,the skin wound epithelialization,hair follicle formation,collagen fiber arrangement,and neovascularization were better in the hydrogel group 14 days after surgery.The skin wound new tissue structure was similar to the normal tissue at 28 days after surgery,and scar hyperplasia was less.A small amount of muscle regeneration was observed on day 28 after operation.(4)The results show that the methacrylated dermal extracellular matrix hydrogel can promote wound skin healing and muscle tissue regeneration in rats with abdominal wall defect.

Objective:To explore the accuracy of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET/MR in preoperative localization of refractory epilepsy patients with conventional MRI negative. Methods:From August 2016 to December 2018, 57 refractory epilepsy patients (36 males, 21 females, age (24.0±10.3) years) with conventional MRI negative who underwent surgery in Xuanwu Hospital were retrospectively enrolled. All patients received interictal 18F-FDG PET/MR before surgery and the epileptogenic foci were determined by using visual and semi-quantitative methods. Patients were followed up for 1 year and the surgical outcome was evaluated according to Engel classification. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 18F-FDG PET/MR in locating epileptogenic foci were calculated according to surgical resection and followed-up results as the " gold standard" . Results:Of 57 patients, 51(89.5%, 51/57) showed single or multiple hypo-metabolism focus on 18F-FDG PET/MR, and 6(10.5%, 6/57) showed no abnormal metabolism changes. The microstructure abnormality was found in 18 patients (31.6%, 18/57) on 18F-FDG PET/MR images. Follow-up results were obtained from 46 patients, and 84.8%(39/46) with seizure improvement (Engel Ⅰ-Ⅲ). The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 18F-FDG PET/MR in preoperative localization of epileptic foci was 90.0%(27/30), 3/16 and 65.2%(30/46), respectively. Conclusion:18F-FDG PET/MR is helpful for the detection of epileptic foci in patients with MRI-negative refractory epilepsy, and can provide reliable information for further surgical treatment.

Objective:To explore the application effect of modified early warning scoring system in treatment of patients with multiple injuries in emergency department.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 126 patients with multiple injuries who were admitted to Emergency Department of Heping Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected as the research objects. The patients were divided into the control group and the intervention group by chronological order , with 63 cases in each group. The control group was given the traditional multi-injury routine first aid and monitoring plan, while the intervention group applied a modified early warning scoring system on the basis of the control group. The success rate of first aid and the degree of deterioration of patients were compared between the two groups.Results:After the implementation of modified early warning scoring system, the success rate of first aid of patients in the intervention group was higher than that of the control group and the degree of disease deterioration was lower than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The modified early warning scoring system has a significant application effect in emergency patients with multiple injuries, which can improve the success rate of treatment of patients and reduce the degree of disease deterioration.

OBJECTIVETo explore the molecular mechanism for a boy suspected with 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency by neonatal screening.

METHODSPCR and Sanger sequencing were used to identify potential mutations of MCCC1 and MCCC2 genes. SIFT and Polyphen-2 software was used to predict the effect of variant on the protein function and conservation of the variant across various species. Human Splicing Finder and Swiss-PdbViewer4.1.0 were applied to analyze the possible mechanism of the variant.

RESULTSFor the proband, a compound heterozygous mutation was discovered in the MCCC1 gene, namely c.539G>T (p.G180V) and c.704_711del (p.A235Vfs*4), which were inherited from his father and mother, respectively. The two mutations have disrupted the protein conformation, which in turn may impact the function of MCC protein.

CONCLUSIONThe compound heterozygous mutations of the MCCC1 gene may contribute to the 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency manifested by the patient.

Objective:To study the status and relationship of mental health,internet addiction disorder,nociceptive behavior and sleep quality among college students,and to provide evidence for healthcare. Methods:A total of 2 868 college students were chosen from Lanzhou University and surveyed with questionnaires on the status of mental health, internet addiction disorder, nociceptive behavior and sleep quality. Results:Sleep quality and health risk behaviors in girls were better than boys (P<0.05) . Psychological state in medical students was best. Sleep quality score in engineering students was the highest. Health risk behaviors in science students had highest score. Internet addiction behavior in engineering students had the highest score. Mental health score in three or more students was less than that in junior students,while sleep quality and internet addiction behavior score was higher (P<0.01) . Conclusion:Mental health has a negative influence on nociceptive behavior and internet addiction disorder,while it has a positive effect on sleeping quality. A negtive correlation lies between sleeping quality and nociceptive behavior or internet addiction disorder. The departments should pay attention to the status of mental health,internet addiction disorder,nociceptive behavior and sleep quality among college students,and the appropriate prevention is necessary.
