OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of aucubin (Auc) on the malignant biological behavior of breast cancer cells by regulating cyclin-dependent kinase 1(CDK1)/cyclin B1(CCNB1)/Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) signaling pathway. METHODS Human breast cancer cells MCF-7 were divided into control group, Auc low-, medium- and high-concentration groups (AUC-L, AUC-M, AUC-H groups, 20, 40 and 80 μmol/L Auc), Auc-H+pcDNA-NC group (80 μmol/L Auc+transfected pcDNA- NC plasmid), and Auc-H+pcDNA-CDK1 group (80 μmol/L Auc+transfected pcDNA-CDK1 plasmid). Cell proliferation, clonal formation, invasion and migration abilities, apoptosis and cycle distribution, and the expressions of related proteins of apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) and CDK1/CCNB1/PLK1 signaling pathway were detected in each group. The transplanted tumor model of BALB/c nude mice was established by subcutaneous inoculation of MCF-7 cell suspension, and the mice were divided into control group and Auc group (12 mice in each group). The tumor volume, mass and the expressions of related proteins of CDK1/CCNB1/PLK1 signaling pathway in tumor tissues were detected. RESULTS Compared with control group, the number of clonal formation, proliferation rate, cell invasion number, scar healing rate, G1/G0 phase and S phase cell proportions, and the expressions of B cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), N-cadherin, fibronectin, CDK1, CCNB1 and PLK1 were decreased significantly (P<0.05). The apoptotic rate, G2/M phase cell proportion and the expressions of Bcl-2 associated X protein and E-cadherin were significantly increased, in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.05). Compared with the Auc-H+pcDNA-NC group, there was no statistical significance in the above indexes in the Auc-H group (P>0.05), while the above indexes in the Auc-H+ pcDNA-CDK1 group were significantly reversed (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the tumor volume and mass, and the expressions of CDK1, CCNB1 and PLK1 in tumor tissue of Auc group were significantly decreased (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Auc can inhibit the proliferation, invasion and migration of breast cancer cells, induce cell cycle arrest, and inhibit the progression of EMT, which may be related to inhibiting the activation of the CDK1/CCNB1/PLK1 signaling pathway.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

ObjectiveIn view of the problems of large errors and poor accuracy in pulmonary function testing in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD), a predictive classification model of pulmonary function in patients with AECOPD was proposed by comparing the prediction performance of different machine learning models to find the optimal model. MethodsFrom January, 2018 to February, 2020, 90 patients with different degrees of COPD from the Affiliated Suzhou Science and Technology Town Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were collected. Six machine learning model algorithms (K-nearest neighbor, logistic regression, support vector machine, naive Bayes, decision tree and random forest) were used to establish AECOPD predictive classification models. Their area under the curve of receiver operating characteristic (AUC-ROC) and accuracy were compared. Ten-fold cross-validation method was used to validate the data set. ResultsThe model based on random forest worked best in predicting and classifying AECOPD patients, with an accuracy rate of 0.844 and an AUC-ROC of 0.916. ConclusionRandom forest-based predictive model is a powerful tool for identifying patients with AECOPD, providing decision support when it is difficult to give a definitive diagnosis.

Objective To investigate visual impairment students' quality of life and its influencing factors in Braille learning class at Quanzhou Special School. Methods November, 2020, 52 students (aged seven to 26) with the best corrected distance visual acuity of the better eye above 0.02 were investigated with near visual acuity, contrast sensitivity and Chinese-version Low Vision Quality of Life Questionnaire (CLVQOL). The subjects were divided into second grade blindness group, first grade low vision group and second grade low vision group according to the best corrected distance visual acuity of the better eye. Results There were significant differences in distance visual acuity (Z = 45.671, P < 0.001), near visual acuity (Z = 24.972, P < 0.001), and contrast sensitivity (CS) ( Z = 13.285, P = 0.001) among three groups. There was a correlation between near visual acuity and distance visual acuity (r = 0.74, P < 0.001), CS to distance visual acuity (r = -0.58, P < 0.001) and near visual acuity (r = -0.57, P < 0.001), score of CLVQOL and CS (r = 0.44, P < 0.001). There were significant differences in the total score (Z = 10.145, P = 0.006), distance visual acuity subscale (Z = 13.586, P = 0.001), psychological adjustment subscale (Z = 7.824, P = 0.020), reading and fine work subscale (Z = 7.923, P = 0.019) of CLVQOL among the three groups. Conclusion Quality of life is different with the visual impairment for students in special school, especially the distance visual acuity, psychological adjustment and fine reading. CS correlates to the quality of life of visually impaired students, which needs to be a part of evaluation of visual function.

Objective:To explore the application of mobile augmented reality (mAR) technology in the teaching of neuroanatomy, and to observe its effect on students' academic performance and cognitive load.Methods:By collecting and designing various neuroanatomy multimedia teaching resources (graphics, animations and videos), using augmented reality (AR) marker-based image recognition technology, the multimedia resources were placed at the tags in the traditional book pages to make the books interactive. And various multimedia resources were combined with traditional printed books through mobile devices. Forty students were randomized into the experimental group or the control group. The experimental group was taught with mAR multimedia materials, and the control group adopted traditional teaching methods. After a 6-hour course was completed, all students had a unified test, and the academic performance test and the PAAS(platform-as-a-service) cognitive load scale were used for data collection and analysis. The variance analyses (MANOVA and ANOVA) were used for significance testing.Results:One-way MANOVA test was used to determine the learning effect of mAR on academic performance and cognitive load. The results showed that there was a significant difference between the experimental group and the control group ( P<0.05). The univariate ANOVA test found that the experimental group students who learned neuroanatomy through mAR had better test scores than the control group students. In addition, compared with the control group students, the cognitive load of students in experimental group was significantly reduced, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Through the teaching practice, we found that using mAR to learn neuroanatomy helps students improve their academic performance while reducing their cognitive load.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, response, and prognosis of splenic diffuse red pulp small B-cell lymphoma (SDRPL) .Methods:Eight cases of SDRPL were diagnosed and treated at Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, between May 2017 and April 2022. Data on the clinical features, laboratory results, bone marrow and spleen biopsy results, response, and prognosis were collected and analyzed.Results:The median age at diagnosis was 54 (42-69) years. Splenomegaly and lymphocytosis were present in all cases, and PET/CT revealed normal to slightly elevated splenic FDG uptake. All cases were in stage Ⅳ, with spleen, peripheral blood, and bone marrow but no proximal lymph nodes involved. The cytoplasm of neoplastic villous cells was abundant, and splenic pathology showed that small homogenous lymphocytes permeated the splenic sinus and splenic cord, and the white pulp atrophied. Immunohistochemistry was not typical, and B-cell markers including CD19, CD20 and CD79α were positive. After a median follow up of 35.5 (4-60) months, 7 cases were alive after splenectomy with or without chemoimmunotherapy. The patient with CCND3 P284A and MYC S146L mutation developed to B-cell prolymphocytic leukemia (B-PLL) 1 month after splenectomy and died at 16 months of follow-up.Conclusion:A rare indolent B-cell lymphoma that primarily affects the elderly, SDRPL. Most patients achieved long-term survival, but the prognosis of patients who progress to B-PLL was poor.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture on acute gastrointestinal injury (AGI) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI).Methods:A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. 126 consecutively hospitalized patients with AGI after sTBI admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2018 to December 2019 were enrolled. The patients were divided into observation group and control group by random number table. All the patients of two groups were given conventional treatment of western medicine for consecutive 7 days, including the treatments of primary diseases, indwelling nasogastric tube to extract gastric contents every 6 hours to determine gastric residual volume (GRV). When vital signs were basically stable, enteral nutrition (EN) was implemented and EN feeding amount and speed were adjusted according to GRV. On the basis of conventional western medicine treatment, the observation group was treated with electroacupuncture at Zusanli, Tianshu, Shangjuxu, Xiajuxu and Zhongwan, once in the morning and once in the evening, 30 minutes each time. The gastrointestinal function parameters including intra-abdominal pressure (IAP), serum diamine oxidase (DAO) and gastrointestinal failure (GIF) scores were observed before treatment and at day 3 and day 7 of treatment. The incidence of ICU hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP-ICU), duration of mechanical ventilation (MV), length of ICU stay, 28-day mortality and adverse reactions of electroacupuncture were also observed in the two groups. Kaplan-Meier method was used for 28-day survival analysis.Results:During the 7-day treatment and observation, 26 cases of 126 patients withdrew from the study, and 100 cases were actually enrolled, 50 cases in the observation group and 50 cases in the control group. IAP and DAO at day 3 of treatment in both groups were significantly lower than those before treatment [control group: IAP (cmH 2O, 1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa) was 13.75±2.76 vs. 18.11±3.97, DAO (U/L) was 129.88±24.81 vs. 158.01±22.64; observation group: IAP (cmH 2O) was 13.56±2.19 vs. 18.50±3.54, DAO (U/L) was 129.11±29.32 vs. 159.36±28.65; all P < 0.01]. The gastrointestinal function parameters of the two groups improved gradually with the extension of treatment time, and the IAP, DAO and GIF scores at day 7 of treatment in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group [IAP (cmH 2O): 11.28±3.61 vs. 12.68±3.23, DAO (U/L): 49.69±17.56 vs. 57.27±20.15, GIF score: 2.02±0.74 vs. 2.40±0.70, all P < 0.05). The duration of MV and the length of ICU stay in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [duration of MV (days): 15.72±4.60 vs. 18.08±4.54, length of ICU stay (days): 16.76±4.68 vs. 19.26±5.42, both P < 0.05], and the incidence of ICU-HAP and 28-day mortality were significantly lowered (12.0% vs. 30.0%, 22.0% vs. 32.0%, both P < 0.05). Survival analysis showed that the 28-day cumulative survival rate in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (86.4% vs. 76.1%; Log-Rank test: χ 2 = 37.954, P < 0.001). The patients in the observation group had no significant adverse reaction of electroacupuncture treatment. Conclusion:Electroacupuncture at corresponding acupoints can effectively improve gastrointestinal function in patients with AGI after sTBI, which is beneficial to shortening the length of ICU stay, promoting the recovery of the patients, and reducing the 28-day mortality.
