BACKGROUND:At present,osteoarthritis has become a major disease affecting the quality of life of the elderly,and the therapeutic effect is poor,often focusing on preventing the disease process,and the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis is still not fully understood.Bioinformatics analysis was carried out to explore the main pathogenesis of osteoarthritis and related mechanisms of gene coding regulation. OBJECTIVE:To screen core differential genes with a major role in osteoarthritis by gene expression profiling. METHODS:Datasets were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO):GSE114007,GSE117999,and GSE129147.Differential genes in the GSE114007 and GSE117999 data collections were screened using R software,performing differential genes to weighted gene co-expression network analysis.The module genes most relevant to osteoarthritis were selected to perform protein interaction analysis.Candidate core genes were selected using the cytocape software.The candidate core genes were subsequently subjected to least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression and COX analysis to identify the core genes with a key role in osteoarthritis.The accuracy of the core genes was validated using an external dataset,GSE129147. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 477 differential genes were identified,265 differential genes associated with osteoarthritis were obtained by weighted gene co-expression network analysis,and 8 candidate core genes were identified.The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression analysis finally yielded a differential gene ASPM with core value that was externally validated.(2)It is concluded that abnormal gene ASPM expression screened by bioinformatics plays a key central role in osteoarthritis.

Objective:To investigate the application of 3.0T high resolution magnetic resonance imaging(HR-MRI)in acute ischemic stroke(AIS)and the influence factors of prognosis.Methods:A total of 92 AIS patients who underwent treatment in Hainan General Hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were selected as the research objects.All patients were treated by thrombolytic therapy,and they were divided into favorable prognosis group(mRS scores≤2 points,n=66)and poor prognosis group(mRS score>2 points,n=26)according to modified Rankin Scale after they received 90d treatment.All of patients underwent Magnetom Trio type of 3.0 T HR-MRI examination within 1 week after they hospitalized,and the changes of luminal stenosis rate,the luminal area at the narrowest point,the plaque load,T2WIsignal intensity index,T1WI signal intensity index,plaque enhancement rate and other parameters were compared.The receiver operating characteristics(ROC)curve was adopted to analyze the predictive value of 3.0T HR-MRI parameters on the AIS prognosis.Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors that affected the prognosis of AIS patients.Results:The difference of infarction diameter between two groups was statistically significant(x2=6.574,P<0.05).The lumen area at the narrowest point in the poor prognosis group was significantly lower than that in the favorable prognosis group,while the T2WI signal intensity index,T1WI signal intensity index and plaque enhancement rate in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the favorable prognosis group(t=-3.378,4.443,4.413,3.890,P<0.05),respectively.ROC curve analysis showed that the area under curve(AUC)values of T2WI signal intensity index,T1WI signal intensity index,lumen area at the narrowest point and plaque enhancement rate in predicting the AIS prognosis were respectively 0.743,0.739,0.706 and 0.748.The Logistic regression analysis showed that infarction diameter>3.0cm,T1WI signal intensity index,T2WI signal intensity index,lumen area at the narrowest point and plaque enhancement rate were respectively independent risk factors that could affect AIS prognosis(OR=3.889,257.151,105.073,4.091,1.121,P<0.05).Conclusion:3.0T HR-MRI has higher efficiency in the assessment for the prognosis of patients with AIS,which can provide guidance for the judgement of prognosis and the formulation of treatment scheme through observes the changes of a series of parameters include T2WI signal strength index,T1WI signal strength index,the lumen area at the narrowest point,plaque enhancement rate.The above parameters are risk factors that affect the prognosis of patients,which often represent the progress of patients'conditions.

3ʹ-Hydroxy-4ʹ-methoxy-2-hydroxy-5-bromochalcone (hereinafter referred to as C13) is a novel chalcone derivative obtained in the process of structural modification of DHMMF, the antitumor active compound of Resina Draconis, in our laboratory. In this study, we investigated the effects of C13 on the proliferation and apoptosis of human gastric cancer HGC-27 and AGS cells and its potential mechanism of action. Firstly, through methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT), colony formation assay, and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) staining, we found that C13 inhibited the proliferation ability of human gastric cancer HGC-27 and AGS cells. Using flow cytometry and Western blot, it was found that C13 induced apoptosis in human gastric cancer HGC-27 and AGS cells, and up-regulated the protein level of cleaved poly ADP-ribose polymerase (cleaved-PARP). The results of RNA sequencing analysis showed that the Erb-b2 receptor tyrosine kinase 4/phosphoinositide 3-kinases/AKT (ErbB4/PI3K/AKT) signaling pathway may be involved in anti-gastric cancer activity of C13. Finally, the results of immunoblotting assay showed that C13 treatment down-regulated the protein levels of ErbB4 and phospho-ErbB4, as well as down-regulated the phosphorylation levels of PI3K and AKT in human gastric cancer HGC-27 and AGS cells, which verified the results from RNA-seq analysis. In conclusion, C13 inhibited the proliferation and induced apoptosis of human gastric cancer cells, which may be related to the down-regulation of ErbB4/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. This study may provide a candidate drug for the treatment of gastric cancer.

Objective To explore the value of serum microRNAs-145(miR-145)and P53 antibody detection in the evaluation of therapeutic effect and prognosis in the treatment of breast cancer with Long Bei Xiaoyao Powder.Methods Ninety cases of breast cancer patients admitted to Beijing Aerospace General Hospital from January 2020 to January 2021 were selected as the study subjects.The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group by random number table method,with 45 cases in each group.All of the patients in the two groups received individualized comprehensive treatment,and additionally the observation group was treated with Long Bei Xiaoyao Powder.The course of treatment covered three months.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR)method was used to detect serum miR-145 expression level,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect serum P53 antibody expression level.The differences in the pre-and post-treatment expression levels of serum miR-145 and P53 antibodies in the two groups were compared,the relationship between the serum miR-145 and P53 antibody expression level and the poor prognosis of the patients in the observation group was explored by logistic regression analysis,and receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was drawn to analyze the value of the serum miR-145 and P53 antibody detection in the prediction of poor prognosis in the observation group.Results(1)After treatment,the detection value of serum miR-145 in the two groups of patients showed an increasing trend(P＜0.05),while that of the P53 antibody showed a decreasing trend(P＜0.05).The intergroup comparison showed that the detection value of serum miR-145 in the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group,while the detection value of P53 antibody was significantly lower than that of the control group,the differences being all statistically significant(P＜0.05).(2)In the observation group,the detection value of serum miR-145 in the patients with good prognosis was significantly higher than that in the patients with poor prognosis,and the detection value of serum P53 antibody in the patients with good prognosis was significantly lower than that in the patients with poor prognosis,the differences being all statistically significant(P＜0.05).(3)Logistic regression analysis showed that high expression of miR-145 was a protective factor for the patients with poor prognosis in the observation group,and high expression of P53 antibody was a risk factor for the patients with poor prognosis in the observation group(P＜0.05).(4)The area under the ROC curve(AUC)for the prediction of prognosis of the patients in the observation group by the combination of serum miR-145 and P53 antibody was the largest(0.877,95%CI:0.769-0.985),and its sensitivity and specificity were 93.75%and 93.10%,respectively,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).Conclusion Low expression of serum miR-145 and high expression of serum P53 antibody are presented in the breast cancer patients with poor prognosis,and Long Bei Xiaoyao Powder exerts satisfactory therapeutic effect in treating breast cancer,which is conducive to enhancing the expression level of serum miR-145 and reducing the expression level of serum P53 antibody.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics of human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) among acute respiratory infection (ARI) cases in 16 provinces of China from 2009 to 2023.Methods:The data of this study were collected from the ARI surveillance data from 16 provinces in China from 2009 to 2023, with a total of 28 278 ARI cases included in the study. The clinical specimens from ARI cases were screened for HRSV nucleic acid from 2009 to 2023, and differences in virus detection rates among cases of different age groups, regions, and months were analyzed.Results:A total of 28 278 ARI cases were enrolled from January 2009 to September 2023. The age of the cases ranged from<1 month to 112 years, and the age M ( Q1, Q3) was 3 years (1 year, 9 years). Among them, 3 062 cases were positive for HRSV nucleic acid, with a total detection rate of 10.83%. From 2009 to 2019, the detection rate of HRSV was 9.33%, and the virus was mainly prevalent in winter and spring. During the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the detection rate of HRSV fluctuated between 6.32% and 18.67%. There was no traditional winter epidemic peak of HRSV from the end of 2022 to the beginning of 2023, and an anti-seasonal epidemic of HRSV occurred from April to May 2023. About 87.95% (2 693/3 062) of positive cases were children under 5 years old, and the difference in the detection rate of HRSV among different age groups was statistically significant ( P<0.001), showing a decreasing trend of HRSV detection rate with the increase of age ( P<0.001). Among them, the HRSV detection rate (25.69%) was highest in children under 6 months. Compared with 2009-2019, the ranking of HRSV detection rates in different age groups changed from high to low between 2020 and 2023, with the age M (Q1, Q3) of HRSV positive cases increasing from 1 year (6 months, 3 years) to 2 years (11 months, 3 years). Conclusion:Through 15 years of continuous HRSV surveillance analysis, children under 5 years old, especially infants under 6 months old, are the main high-risk population for HRSV infection. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the prevalence and patterns of HRSV in China have changed.
