Objective:To compare the distribution differences of serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) among different gender and age individuals, and to explore the clinical application of SPE screening monoclonal gammopathy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted based on the SPE results obtained from 533 989 cases enrolled from January 2018 to December 2019 at Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University. Among these patients, 435 479 inpatients were from departments of hematology, nephrology, spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rheumatology and immunology; and 98 510 were apparently healthy individuals. The distributions of albumin, α1 globulin, α2 globulin, β1 globulin, β2 globulin and γ globulin in different gender and age groups (≤20, 21-30, 31-40, 41-50, 51-60, 61-70, 71-80, 81-90, ≥91 years old) were compared. A total of 10 014 cases were selected by immunofixation electrophoresis (IFE). The positive detection rates of different SPE bands and IFE bands were analyzed. The sensitivity and specificity of SPE methods were determined according to IFE results as the gold standard.Results:No significant difference was examined in the proportion of SPE bands between different genders ( P>0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the proportion of albumin bands between apparently healthy individuals and hospitalized patients at different ages (apparently healthy individuals: F=5.12, P<0.05, inpatients: F=4.18, P<0.05), and all of them decreased with the increase of age. The proportion of γ globulin bands increased with age (apparently healthy individuals: F=1.34, P<0.05; inpatients: F=1.24, P<0.05). The sensitivity of SPE was 69% (2 098/3 051), and the specificity was 97% (6 721/6 963). Compared with IFE method, the positive detection rate of monoclonal gammopathy was significantly different (χ2=5 049.94, P<0.05). The positive rate of monoclonal gammopathy in γ globulin region (21.11%, 2 114/10 014) was higher than that in β globulin region (3.28%, 328/10 014) (χ2=90.74, P<0.05) and β-γ globulin region (1.63%, 163/10 014) (χ2=44.34, P<0.05). IgG and IgM bands are common in γ globulin region. Among them, IgG-κ type accounted for 94.1% (995/1 058), IgG-λ type accounted for 94.8% (690/728), IgM-κ type accounted for 89.2% (222/249), IgM-λ accounted for 83.8% (62/74). IgA bands are common in β region, of which IgA-κ accounted for 49.8% (103/207) and IgA-λ accounted for 51.6% (149/289). The positive rate of monoclonal gammopathy of IgG-κ type was the highest (10.57%, 1 058/10 014), and the positive rate of monoclonal gammopathy of IgM-λ type was the lowest (0.74%, 74/10 014). Conclusions:With increasing age, the proportion of albumin band in SPE decreased and the proportion of γ globulin band increased. IgG and IgM type monoclonal gammopathy is mostly found in the gamma region, with a higher detection rate in IgG type. IgA type monoclonal gammopathy is mostly found in the β region, with a lower detection rate.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of proper management of inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery (IPDA) in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical and pathological data of 70 patients who received LPD due to pancreatic head tumors, periampullary tumors, or distal common bile duct tumors in the Pancreatic Center of the Second Clinical College of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January to December 2022 were retrospectively collected. There were 47 males(67.1%) and 23 females(32.9%),aged (59.9±12.8)years(range:13 to 87 years).The procedure of IPDA exposure was as follows:a middle approach was utilized to expose the right half of superior mesenteric artery(SMA) and its right branches between the SMA and superior mesenteric vein(SMV) in superior colonic region. In the subcolonic region,SMA trunk exposure via dissection along the jejunal artery from feet to head and identification the association between IPDA and jejunal artery were prior to IPDA root ligation and dissection. The safety and efficacy of intraoperative IPDA handling were assessed based on surgical videos. Follow-up was carried out in outpatient clinic or by telephone, and outpatient follow-up was conducted once every 1 to 3 months after surgery.Results:The percentage of total LPD was 98.6%(69/70),with all patients achieving R0 resection. Nine cases(12.9%) were involved in combined vascular resection and reconstruction,with 1 case (1.4%) requiring additional upper abdominal incision for vascular and gastrointestinal reconstruction,while the remaining eight cases (11.4%) were completed laparoscopically. The operative time was (432.7±115.4)minutes(range:282 to 727 minutes), and the blood loss was (140.0±125.7)ml(range:20 to 800 ml). Only two patients(2.9%) received fresh frozen plasma transfusion,with an average volume of 650 ml. Reliable ligation and safe handling of the IPDA were achieved in 91.4%(64/70) of cases, with 8.6%(6/70) suffering from IPDA injury-related bleeding. No one was converted to opened surgery. Pathologically,the mean tumor size was (3.3±1.6)cm (range:1 to 7 cm),and the mean number of harvested lymph nodes was 17.0±7.3(range:0 to 46). Lymph node metastasis was observed in 13 cases (18.6%). Five cases (13.2%) developed grade B pancreatic fistula,while no grade C pancreatic fistula occurred. Other complications included bile leakage in one case(1.4%),delayed gastric emptying in two cases(2.9%), lymphatic leakage in 2 cases(2.9%),intra-abdominal infection in 9 cases(12.9%),and fat liquefaction of surgical incision in 1 case(1.4%). Two cases(2.9%) experienced postoperative intra-abdominal bleeding,one due to mesangial bleeding of lesser curvature of the stomach and the other due to oozing from the hepatic arterial sheath. These bleeding events were not concerned with IPDA. The average length of postoperative hospital stay was (15.2±4.6)days(range:9 to 28 days).Conclusion:Proper intraoperative management of IPDA in LPD might reduce IPDA-related bleeding during and after surgery and improve the safety of LPD.

Objective:To investigate the effect of bone mesenchymal stem cells derived exosomes (BMSC-Exo) on improving hippocampal microangiogenesis, energy metabolism, and behaviors in depression mouse models.Methods:(1) Mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and cultured to extract BMSC-Exo; BMSC-Exo morphology was observed by transmission electron microscopy, BMSC-Exo particle diameter ranges were determined by Zetaview analyzer, and expressions of CD9 and CD63 in BMSC-Exo were detected by Western blotting. (2) Depression models were established in 2 mice by chronic unforeseeable mild stress (CUMS); 24 h after stereotaxic injection of phosphate buffer solution (PBS) or DiR labeled BMSC-Exo, BMSC-Exo uptake was detected by in vivo imaging system. (3) Thirty-six mice were randomly divided into control group, model group and BMSC-Exo group ( n=12); CUMS was used to establish depression models in the latter 2 groups; brain stereotaxic injection of 1 μL BMSC-Exo was given to mice in the BMSC-Exo group after modeling, and same amount of PBS was given to the control group; behaviors were observed by forced swimming test (FST), tail suspension test (TST) and open field test (OFT); hippocampal microvascular length and number were detected by alkaline phosphatase staining; energy metabolism in the hippocampus was detected by micro positron emission tomography/computed tomography (mPET/CT); glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) expression in the hippocampus was detected by Western blotting. Results:(1) BMSC-Exo had a typical disk-like vesicle-like structure with particle size of (100.5±1.4) nm; Western blotting confirmed that CD9 and CD63 expressed in BMSC-Exo. (2) In vivo imaging showed no fluorescence in the brain and liver after PBS injection, but obvious local fluorescence after BMSC-Exo injection. (3) Compared with the control group, the model group and BMSC-Exo group had significantly longer rest time in FST and TST and shorter movement distance and time in the central region of OFT ( P<0.05); compared with the model group, BMSC-Exo group had significantly shorter rest time in FST and TST and longer movement distance and time in the central region of OFT ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the model group and BMSC-Exo group had significantly decreased standard uptake value (SUV) of regions of interest, microvascular length and number, and GLUT1 expression in the hippocampus ( P<0.05); compared with the model group, the BMSC-Exo group had significantly higher SUV, microvascular length and number, and GLUT1 expression in the hippocampus ( P<0.05). Positive correlations were noted between hippocampal microvascular length and SUV and between microvascular number and SUV in the 3 groups ( r=0.540, P<0.001; r=0.600, P<0.001). Conclusion:BMSC-Exo could promote microangiogenesis energy metabolism in the hippocampus to improve depression-like behaviors in depression mouse models.
