OBJECTIVES: Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) mainly characterized by inflammation, ulceration and erosion of colonic mucosa and submucosa. Transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) is an important mediator of visceral pain and inflammatory bowel disease. This study aims to investigate the protective effect of water soluble propolis (WSP) on UC colon inflammatory tissue and the role of TRPV1. METHODS: Male SD rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (n=8): a normal control (NC) group, an ulcerative colitis model (UC) group, a low-WSP (L-WSP) group, a medium-WSP (M-WSP) group, a high-WSP (H-WSP) group, and a salazosulfapyridine (SASP) group. The rats in the NC group drank water freely, and the other groups drank 4% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) solution freely for 7 d to replicate the ulcerative colitis model. Based on the successful replication of the UC, the L-WSP, M-WSP, and H-WSP groups were given 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg of water-soluble propolis by gavage for 7 d, and the SASP group was given 100 mg/kg of sulfasalazine by gavage for 7 d. The body weight of rats in each group was measured at the same time every day, the fecal traits and occult blood were observed to record the disease activity index (DAI). After intragastric administration, the animals were sacrificed after fasted 24 h. Serum and colonic tissue were collected, and the changes of MDA, IL-6 and TNF-α were detected. The pathological changes of colon tissues were observed by HE staining, and the expression of TRPV1 in colon tissues was observed by Western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. RESULTS: The animals in each group that drank DSS freely showed symptoms such as weight loss, decreased appetite, depressed state, and hematochezia, indicating that the model was successfully established. Compared with the NC group, DAI scores of other groups were increased (all P<0.05). MDA, IL-6, TNF-α in serum and colon tissues of the UC group were increased compared with the NC group (all P<0.01), and they were decreased after WSP and SASP treatment (all P<0.01). The results of showed that the colon tissue structure was obviously broken and inflammatory infiltration in the UC group, while the H-WSP group and the SASP group significantly improved the colon tissue and alleviated inflammatory infiltration. The expression of TRPV1 in colon tissues in the UC group was increased compared with the NC group (all P<0.01), and it was decreased after WSP and SASP treatment. CONCLUSIONS WSP can alleviate the inflammatory state of ulcerative colitis induced by DSS, which might be related to the inhibition of inflammatory factors release, and down-regulation or desensitization of TRPV1.

Objective To investigate radiation resources in medical diagnosis and treatment and their use frequency in medical institutions in Hangzhou, China, and to provide a basis for relevant departments to rationally allocate and scientifically supervise the resources. Methods From April 1, 2019 to March 31, 2020, a survey was conducted on the basic information, radiation staff, equipment configuration, and frequency of radiation diagnosis and treatment of all medical institutions in Hangzhou using a questionnaire. Results There were 1001 institutions with radiation services in Hangzhou, with 6714 radiation staff members and 2742 pieces of radiation equipment. The frequency of conventional X-ray diagnosis was 788.43 per 1000 population. The frequency of computed tomography diagnosis was 531.93 per 1000 population. The frequency of mammography and dental photography diagnosis was 246.34 per 1000 population. The frequency of interventional diagnosis and treatment was 10.01 per 1000 population. The frequency of radiotherapy was 2.39 per 1000 population. The frequency of nuclear medicine diagnosis was 8.90 per 1000 population. The frequency of nuclear medicine treatment was 0.99 per 1000 population. Conclusion Medical institutions have developed rapidly in Hangzhou, but with an unbalanced situation. In order to better protect the health of examinees, we recommend relevant departments optimize resource allocation and strengthen supervision on radiation protection in medical institutions.

Objective:To analyze and evaluate the impact of balance training on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods:The randomized controlled trials of balance training in COPD patients in PubMed, Embase, Web of science, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database were searched. The retrieval time was from the establishment of the database to November 20, 2022. A Meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan5.3 on balance ability, exercise ability, quality of life, and balance confidence in patients with COPD.Results:A total of 432 patients were included in 7 studies. The results of the Meta-analysis showed that compared with other training, balanced training could improve the balance ability of patients [Timed Up and Go Test: mean difference ( MD)=-2.19, 95% CI (-2.86, -1.52); P<0.001, Berg Balance Scale: MD=4.02, 95% CI (0.78, 7.27); P=0.020, the Balance Evaluation Systems Test: MD=7.83, 95% CI (0.13, 15.52); P=0.050], exercise ability [Six-Minute Walk Test: standard mean difference ( SMD)=0.21, 95% CI (0.01, 0.40); P=0.040] and quality of life [COPD Assessment Test and St. George′s Respiratory Questionnaire: SMD=-0.54, 95% CI (-1.08, -0.01); P=0.050], but balance training did not effectively enhance patients′ activity balance confidence [Activities-Specific Balance Confidence Scale: MD=9.34, 95% CI (-0.98, 19.66); P=0.080]. Conclusion:Balance training can improve the balance ability, exercise ability, and quality of life of patients with COPD, but the impact on patients′ activity balance confidence needs to be further verified.

Objective:A nomogram model was constructed to predict poor prognosis and death risk of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with cardiogenic acute stroke.Methods:Selected 276 patients with cardiogenic acute stroke who were treated by Jiangyin Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2016 to June 2020 who underwent mechanical thrombectomy as the research objects, and recorded their general information and laboratory test results. On the 90th day, the subjects were divided into a good prognosis group ( n=122) and a poor prognosis group ( n=154) according to whether the prognosis was poor or not; according to whether they died, the subjects were divided into the survival group ( n=208) and the death group ( n=68). The differences in patient related data were compared, Logistic regression analysis was used to screen for risk factors for poor prognosis and death, the line chart prediction model was established, and the ability of the column chart model to predict poor prognosis and death was evaluated by using the subject work characteristic (ROC) curve. The independent factors selected by multivariate regression analysis were used as predictors to construct a nomogram model to predict the prognosis of mechanical thrombectomy surgery in patients with cardiogenic acute stroke. The degree of calibration and validity of the nomogram model established in this study Make an evaluation. The measurement data that obey the normal distribution were represented by the Mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and the two independent sample t test was used for the comparison between groups; The comparison of enumeration data between groups adopted chi-square test. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed age ( OR=1.165; 95% CI: 1.046-1.284; P=0.001), diabetes ( OR=1.123; 95% CI: 1.021-1.225; P<0.001), hemorrhage transformation ( OR= 2.394; 95% CI: 1.857-2.931; P=0.001), recanalization ( OR=0.418; 95% CI: 0.410-0.552; P=0.001), NIHSS score ( OR=1.502; 95% CI: 1.373-1.631); P=0.001), neutrophil count (NEUT) ( OR=1.024; 95% CI: 1.009-1.139; P=0.001), NEUT/lymphocyte count (NLR) ( OR=1.235; 95% CI: 1.112-1.358; P=0.001), D-dimer ( OR=1.939; 95% CI: 1.328-2.551; P=0.001) was an independent risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with cardiogenic acute stroke; age ( OR=1.153; 95% CI: 1.080-1.226; P<0.001), hemorrhage transformation ( OR=6.330; 95% CI: 4.904-7.754; P=0.001), recanalization ( OR=0.418; 95% CI: 0.323-0.514; P=0.001), NIHSS score ( OR=2.051; 95% CI: 1.784-2.338; P=0.001), NEUT ( OR=1.399; 95% CI: 1.275-1.523; P=0.001), NLR ( OR=1.528; 95% CI: 1.414-1.642; P=0.001), D-dimer ( OR=2.391; 95% CI: 1.948-2.834; P=0.001) was an independent predictor of death in patients with cardiogenic acute stroke. The established nomogram model predicted poor prognosis and the area under the ROC curve of death were 0.814 (95% CI: 0.800-0.828) and 0.842 (95% CI: 0.828-0.857). Conclusions:Age, hemorrhage transformation, recanalization, NIHSS score, NEUT, NLR, and D-dimer are all important for the prognosis of patients with cardiogenic acute stroke by mechanical thrombectomy. Diabetes only has a suggestive effect on poor prognosis. The nomogram model established based on these factors can effectively help clinicians evaluate the prognosis of patients, formulate reasonable treatment plans for them, and improve the prognosis.

Objective To explore the quality control results of Digital Diagnost digital radiography (DR), and also to analyze the differences in signal transfer characteristics (STP) of DR from different manufacturers, in order to provide a reference for quality control of testers and daily supervision of administrative staff. Methods According to WS 76—2020 “Specification for testing of quality control in medical X-ray diagnostic equipment”, the test items such as automatic exposure control (AEC) repeatability, AEC response, detector dose indication (DDI), STP, high-contrast resolution, and low-contrast resolution of Digital Diagnost DR were qualitatively controlled, and several common DRs on the market were selected to analyze their STP functional relationships. Results The baseline values of DDI, high-contrast resolution, and low-contrast resolution of Digital Diagnost DR were 19733, 2.8 Lp/mm, and H5 of image central pixel value, respectively; the quality control results of other test items met the requirements of WS 76—2020. The STP functional relationships of common DRs were mainly linear and logarithmic, but different models of DR from the same manufacturer might also have different STP functional relationships. Conclusion When testing some special test items of DR, attention should be paid to the influence of a variety of factors, while refining the test steps and condition settings for the test items. The simulation should be performed in accordance with the functional relationship provided by the manufacturer when analyzing the STP.

Objective To explore the absorbed dose to the common tissues of subjects in four clinical CT scanning modes and the spatial distribution of the radiation field in chest scanning, in order to provide a basis for the radiation protection of subjects and the space in the machine room. Methods A thermoluminescence detector (TLD) was used to measure the absorbed doses to the eye lens, thyroid gland, gonad, chest and abdominal skins of the anthropomorphic phantom in four CT scanning modes. The TLD was used to monitor the air kerma at different positions from the CT diagnostic table during chest spiral scanning. Results The absorbed doses to the eye lens, thyroid gland, gonad, chest and abdominal skins of the anthropomorphic phantom in four CT scanning modes were 0.040-64.818 mGy, 0.154-10.155 mGy, 0.028-0.154 mGy, 0.443-17.141 mGy, and 0.093-14.346 mGy, respectively. The maximum air kerma value of the space radiation field during chest scanning was 0.049 mGy, and the farther the distance from the CT tube, the smaller the value. Conclusion The absorbed doses to the common tissues of subjects examined by the four CT scanning modes generally do not exceed the threshold doses. The dose received by the companion of the subject during a single chest CT scan was small. In order to minimize radiation hazards, shielding measures can be taken in CT scanning to reduce the absorbed doses to the tissues of the subject, and the companion of the subject should appropriately increase the distance from the tube and the diagnostic table.

Objective To compare the rat model of slow transit constipation (STC) established with gavage or feeding compound di-phenoxylate. Methods Forty Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into gavage control group (A), gavage group (B), feeding control group (C) and feeding group (D) equally. Group B was given compound diphenoxylate suspension by gavage for 14 days while group A ac-cepted isodose normal saline. Group D were given feed containing compound diphenoxylate for 120 days while group C accepted normal feed. Carbon ink was poured into stomachs to observe the propelling rate after modeling, and the content of aquaporin 3 and aquaporin 4 were detected with immunohistochemistry. Results There were two rats died in group A and group B, respectively. The carbon ink propel-ling rate was lower in group D than in group B (P<0.05). Both aquaporin 3 and aquaporin 4 were more in group D than in group B (P<0.05). Conclusion STC rat model can be established by eating diphenoxylate feed for 120 days, which is safer and more stable than that of gavage for 14 days. Aquaporins in colons may play a role in onset and development of STC.
