Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals，of which 7 895（87.4%）were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140（12.6%）were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（ n=4 510，49.9%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（ n=2 340，25.9%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（ n=534，5.9%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（ n=405，4.5%）and Enterobacter cloacae（ n=327，3.6%）. The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%（2 095/4 452），21.0%（427/2 033）and 41.1%（58/141），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（58/4 510）and 13.1%（307/2 340）；62.1%（36/58）and 9.8%（30/307）of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 59.5%（241/405），while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 18.4%（98/534）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA（ χ2=20.489 and 20.252， P<0.001）. The prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA，CRAB，ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=11.953，81.183，10.404，5.915，12.415 and 6.459， P<0.01 or <0.05），while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions（per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan）than that in economically less-developed regions（per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=6.240， P=0.012）. Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different，and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between intramuscular adipose tissue index (IATI) calculated from computed tomography images at transverse process of the first lumbar and all-cause mortality in maintenance dialysis patients, and to provide a reference for improving the prognosis in these patients.Methods:It was a multicenter retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of patients who received maintenance hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis treatment from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019 in 4 grade Ⅲ hospitals including Zhongda Hospital Affiliated to Southeast University, Taizhou People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University, Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University, and the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively collected. IATI was calculated by low attenuation muscle (LAM) density/skeletal muscle density. The receiver-operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of IATI, and the patients were divided into high IATI group and low IATI group according to the optimal cut-off value. The differences of baseline clinical data and measurement parameters of the first lumbar level between the two groups were compared. The follow-up ended on December 23, 2022. The endpoint event was defined as all-cause mortality within 3 years. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and log-rank test were used to analyze the survival rates and the differences between the two groups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis models were used to analyze the association between IATI and the risk of all-cause mortality in maintenance dialysis patients. Multivariate logistic regression analysis model was used to analyze the influencing factors of high IATI.Results:A total of 478 patients were eligibly recruited in this study, with age of (53.55±13.19) years old and 319 (66.7%) males, including 365 (76.4%) hemodialysis patients and 113 (23.6%) peritoneal dialysis patients. There were 376 (78.7%) patients in low IATI (<0.42) group and 102 (21.3%) patients in high IATI (≥0.42) group. The proportion of age ≥ 60 years old ( χ2=24.746, P<0.001), proportion of diabetes mellitus ( χ2=5.570, P=0.018), fasting blood glucose ( t=-2.145, P=0.032), LAM density ( t=-3.735, P<0.001), LAM index ( t=-7.072, P<0.001), and LAM area/skeletal muscle area ratio ( Z=-9.630, P<0.001) in high IATI group were all higher than those in low IATI group, while proportion of males ( χ2=11.116, P<0.001), serum albumin ( Z=2.708, P=0.007) and skeletal muscle density ( t=12.380, P<0.001) were lower than those in low IATI group. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that the 3-years overall survival rate of low IATI group was significantly higher than that in high IATI group (Log-rank χ2=19.188, P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that IATI<0.42 [<0.42/≥0.42, HR(95% CI): 0.50 (0.31-0.83), P=0.007] was an independent protective factor of all-cause mortality, and age ≥60 years old [ HR (95% CI): 2.61 (1.60-4.23), P<0.001], diabetes mellitus [ HR (95% CI): 1.71 (1.06-2.78), P=0.029] and high blood neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio [ HR (95% CI): 1.04 (1.00-1.07), P=0.049] were the independent risk factors of all-cause mortality in maintenance dialysis patients. Stepwise Cox regression analysis showed that IATI<0.42 was still an independent protective factor of all-cause mortality in maintenance dialysis patients [<0.42/≥0.42, HR (95% CI): 0.45 (0.27-0.76), P=0.003]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that low skeletal muscle density [ OR (95% CI): 0.84 (0.81-0.88), P<0.001] and high serum triglyceride [ OR (95% CI): 1.39 (1.07-1.82), P=0.015] were the independent influencing factors of IATI≥0.42. Conclusion:IATI<0.42 of the first lumbar level is an independent protective factor of all-cause mortality in maintenance dialysis patients. Localized myosteatosis within high-quality skeletal muscle may reduce the risk of all-cause mortality in these patients.

Objective To investigate the effects of long noncoding RNA(lncRNA)-NRON on apoptosis following myocardial infarc-tion(MI)in mice.Methods The C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups:sham operation(Sham)group,MI group,MI combined with lncRNA-NRON interference lentivirus(MI+shNRON)group,and MI combined with the negative control(NC)lentivirus(MI+NC)group.The expression of lncRNA-NRON was detected using real-time PCR.In addition,the pathology of the myocardial tissue injury was analyzed using HE staining,the myocardial infarction size was examined using TTC staining,and the extent of apoptosis was assessed using the TUNEL assay,respectively.The RPISeq database was used to predict the probability of interaction between lncR-NA-NRON and the voltage-dependent anionic channel protein(VDAC).The effect of lncRNA-NRON on the expression of VDAC protein was detected using Western blotting.Results The lncRNA-NRON expression was significantly increased in the MI group,and the tar-geted knockdown of lncRNA-NRON resulted in alleviation of the pathological myocardial tissue injury,reduction in the myocardial infarc-tion area,and inhibition of apoptosis.The probability of interaction between lncRNA-NRON and VDAC reached 0.9,indicating a high probability of their association.Additionally,lncRNA-NRON could regulate the protein expression of VDAC.Conclusion Knockdown of lncRNA-NRON could reduce the occurrence of myocardial injury following myocardial infarction.This effect may be attributable to a spe-cific mechanism wherein lncRNA-NRON affects the process of apoptosis by binding to VDAC,consequently suppressing its expression.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of the blended teaching model of "pre-class synchronous small private online course (SPOC)+ flipped classroom+post-class knowledge expansion" in the theoretical teaching of biochemistry and molecular biology. Methods:A total of 951 students majoring in clinical medicine, preventive medicine, and pharmacy in the class of 2020 in Qiqihar Medical College were selected as teaching reform research group (experimental group), and their curriculum relied on the self-built massive open online course (MOOC) curriculum and the MOOC resources of Chinese universities to construct a blended teaching model; the reform methods such as small class grouping, case-based learning, and diversified examination were adopted to carry out theoretical flipped teaching activities with cross integration of cases and knowledge points as the main line. A total of 847 students majoring in clinical medicine, preventive medicine, and pharmacy in the class of 2019 were selected as control group, and the traditional teaching method was used for theoretical courses. The courses were evaluated by offline assessment and online assessment, and feedback information was collected through examination scores, questionnaire survey, and online voting. SPSS 20.0 was used for statistical analysis, and the t-test was used for comparison between groups. Results:The experimental group had a significantly higher total score of final examination than the control group [(92.12±3.88) vs. (86.73±5.27), P<0.05]. The questionnaire survey showed that the students in the experimental group showed a relatively high degree of satisfaction with the blended teaching reform, which increased their participation, experiencing, and sharing activities. The students majoring in clinical medicine in the class of 2020 believed that they had established clinical thinking ability (263, 92.61%) and become familiar with the clinical manifestations and pathogenesis of common diseases (262, 92.25%); the students majoring in preventive medicine in the class of 2020 believed that they had increased their awareness of serving the public (151, 93.21%) and developed the ability to teach and guide healthy living (148, 91.36%); the students majoring in pharmacy in the class of 2020 believed that they had mastered the mechanism of action of drugs for disease treatment (138, 93.24%) and understood the importance of rational drug use in clinical practice (135, 91.22%). Conclusion:The blended teaching model realizes student-centered teaching, stimulates the interest and initiative in learning, and improves learning outcome, thereby improving teaching quality to a certain extent.

Objective:To analyze the mutation characteristics of Kirsten rat sarcoma virus oncogene homology (KRAS) gene in patients with appendiceal adenocarcinoma and its relationship with the activity of Ras Raf Mitogen activated protein kinase/extracellular regulated protein kinase (MAPK/ERK) signaling pathway.Methods:A total of 41 patients with appendiceal adenocarcinoma who were treated in the Lishui Central Hospital from January 2014 to January 2020 were selected as the observation group, and 50 patients with Appendicitis who were operated at the same time were randomly selected as the control group. Clinical and follow-up data were collected, and the mutation of the KRAS gene in the patient′s tissue was measured using the snapshot method. The expression of key proteins in the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in cancer tissue was measured using Western blotting (WB) assay. We compared the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with KRAS mutation and non KRAS mutation appendiceal adenocarcinoma.Results:The KRAS gene mutation rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (41.5% vs 10.0%), and the expression levels of p-ARAF/ARAF, p-MEK1/MEK1, and p-ERK1/ERK1 proteins were also higher than those in the control group. The differences between the groups were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The protein expression levels of p-ARAF/ARAF, p-MEK1/MEK1, p-ERK1/ERK1 in KRAS mutation patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in non KRAS mutation patients. The proportion of stage IV, positive rates of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA)199 and CA125 in KRAS mutation patients were higher than those in non KRAS mutation patients, and the survival time and progression free survival time were shorter than those in non KRAS mutation patients, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The mutation rate of KRAS in appendix adenocarcinoma is high, and the activation of MAPK/ERK signaling pathway caused by KRAS mutation may play a role in the pathogenesis of appendix adenocarcinoma, which has the value of in-depth research.

Objective:To investigate the impact of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) and C-reactive protein/albumin ratio (CAR) on the long-term survival of gastric cancer patients after surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 136 gastric cancer patients admitted to Lishui Central Hospital from January 2015 to December 2017, who underwent radical surgery and were followed up for 5 years. Patients were divided into HER2 positive and HER2 negative groups based on HER2 immunohistochemical results, and into high CAR and low CAR groups based on the CAR mean value. The relationship between HER2 and CAR with clinicopathological characteristics of gastric cancer patients was analyzed. The postoperative tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate were compared between the two groups of patients (HER2 positive group and HER2 negative group, as well as high CAR group and low CAR group). Cox regression analysis was used to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death in gastric cancer patients.Results:The proportion of HER2 positive patients with large tumor size, low differentiation, T 3-4 tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and vascular invasion was significantly higher than that of HER2 negative patients (all P<0.05). The proportion of high CAR patients with large tumor size, low differentiation, T 3-4 tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, and vascular invasion was significantly higher than that of low CAR patients (all P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that HER2 negative patients had significantly higher 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year cumulative tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate than HER2 positive patients, while low CAR patients had significantly higher 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year cumulative tumor-free survival rate and overall survival rate than high CAR patients (all P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified T 3-4 tumor invasion depth, lymph node metastasis, HER2 positivity, and high CAR expression as independent prognostic factors for postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death in gastric cancer patients (all P<0.05). HER2 positive gastric cancer patients had a 1.895-fold higher risk of postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis than HER2 negative patients ( HR: 1.895, 95% CI: 1.245-4.229, P=0.034), while high CAR gastric cancer patients had a 1.769-fold higher risk of postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis than low CAR patients ( HR: 1.769, 95% CI: 1.433-3.959, P=0.039). HER2 positive gastric cancer patients had a 2.145-fold higher risk of postoperative death than HER2 negative patients ( HR: 2.145, 95% CI: 1.378-4.589, P=0.028), while high CAR gastric cancer patients had a 1.926-fold higher risk of postoperative death than low CAR patients ( HR: 1.926, 95% CI: 1.564-3.853, P=0.025). Conclusions:HER2 and CAR are independent prognostic factors for postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death in gastric cancer patients. Gastric cancer patients with HER2 positivity and high CAR have a higher risk of postoperative tumor recurrence, metastasis, and death. This study has some limitations due to its small sample size and single-center design, which may introduce some bias. Future multicenter and large-scale studies are needed to confirm the results of this study.

Objective:To explore the value of thromboela-stogram (TEG) in predicting the risk of bleeding in patients undergoing thyroid cancer surgery and guiding blood transfusion therapy.Methods:46 patients with hemorrhage after thyroid cancer surgery in General Surgery Department of the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from Sep. 2021 to Sep. 2022 were selected as the hemorrhage group, including 12 males and 34 females. The age ranged from 18 to 76 years old, with an average age of (45.39±8.64). A total of 46 patients with no postoperative bleeding during the same period were selected as control group, including 9 males and 37 females. The average age was (43.86±9.12) years, ranging from 18 to 75 years. Postoperative TEG parameters, thrombin time (fibrinogen), fibrinogen (FIB), prothombin time (PT), thrombin time (thrombin time, TT), activited partial thomboplastin time (APTT) ], Spearman correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between TEG parameters, coagulation parameters and postoperative blood loss. The value of TEG parameters and coagulation indexes in predicting bleeding was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:R value (9.81±1.39) min, K value (3.52±0.94) min, PT value (14.12±1.98) s, TT value (21.36±3.21) s and APTT value (40.29±7.18) s in hemorrhage group were higher than those in control group (7.09±1.12) min and 2.75±0.81) min, (12.86±1.74) s, (19.71±2.53) s, (36.15±6.52) s, MA value (51.67±5.13) mm, Angle (47.06±9.24) °, FIB (1.95±0.64) g/L were lower than control group (57.76±6.05) mm, (58.29±10.28) °, (2.41±0.89) g/L (t 1=10.335, t 2=4.209, t 3=3.242, t 4=2.738, t 5=2.895, t 6=5.207, t 7=5.510, t 8=2.846, all P<0.05) ; R-value (11.02±1.26) min and K-value (4.16±0.93) min in patients with high blood (≥10 ml) bleeding group were higher than those in patients with low bleeding (<10 ml) (9.28±1.19) min and (3.24±0.89) min. MA value (48.04±5.01) mm, Angle (42.15±9.14) ° were lower than those of patients with hypohemorrhage (53.26±5.29) mm, (49.21±9.53) ° (t 1=4.484, t 2=3.183, t 3=3.127, t 4=2.340, P<0.05). The amount of blood loss after thyroid cancer surgery was positively correlated with R value and K value, and negatively correlated with MA value and Angle (r 1=0.421, r 2=0.335, r 3=-0.318, r 4=-0.306, all P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of R value, K value, MA value and Angle predicted perioperative bleeding of thyroid cancer surgery was>0.7. R value (7.13±1.15) min, K value (2.81±0.82) min, PT (13.01±1.76) s, TT (20.03±2.60) s, APTT (37.12±6.64) s after treatment were lower than those before treatment (9.81±1.39) min, (3.52±0.94) min, (14.12±1.98) s, (21.36±3.21) s, (40.29±7.18) s, MA value (56.89±5.94) mm, Angle (56.73±9.86) °, FIB (2.35±0.85) g/L were higher than those before treatment (51.67±5.13) mm, (47.06±9.24) °, (1.95±0.64) g/L (t 1=10.076, t 2=3.860, t 3=2.842, t 4=2.184, t 5=2.198, t 6=4.511, t 7=4.854, t 8=2.550, all P<0.05) . Conclusion:TEG parameters R value, K value, MA value and Angle have certain predictive efficacy in predicting bleeding risk of patients undergoing thyroid cancer surgery, and can guide clinical transfusion therapy.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical bacterial isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2021.Methods:The clinical bacterial strains isolated from blood culture from member hospitals of Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS) were collected during January 2021 to December 2021. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.

Objective:To investigate the expression of miR-92a-3p in senile osteoporosis (OP) and its diagnostic value in hip fragility fractures.Methods:With the help of the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) website, the data sets related to OP and miRNA were retrieved and analyzed and screened to obtain the target miRNA. Serum samples were collectedfrom 53 OP patients and 24 healthy people, and the OP patients were divided into hip fragility fracture group (OP_F; n=30) and no hip fragility fracture group (OP_WF; n=23). The subjects' bone mineral density and serum bone metabolism markers were measured: calcium, phosphorus, parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D, bone alkaline phosphatase, serum C-terminal peptide. The expression levels of target miRNAs in serum samples were detected by qRT-PCR. Chi-square test, t test, Spearman rank correlation and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) were used to analyze the potential relationship between the expression level of miR-92a-3p and the clinical characteristics of patients.Results:According to the analysis of NCBI website, the expression of miR-92a-3p in OP patients was higher ( t=3.41, P=0.007) than that in healthy people, and the expression level of miR-1304-5p was lower ( t=5.13, P<0.001). qRT-PCR experiments confirmed the above results, and further found that the expression of miR-92a-3p in the OP_F group was significantly higher than that in the OP_WF group (t=3.01, P=0.004), but there was no significant difference in miR-1304-5p between the two groups (t=0.71, P=0.480). Compared with the healthy control group, the BMI ( t=2.71, P=0.008), bone mineral density score ( t=29.02, P<0.001), calcium ( t=61.20, P<0.001), phosphorus ( t=2.54, P=0.013), 25-hydroxyvitamin D (t=3.01, P=0.004) ,bone alkaline phosphatase ( t=12.56, P<0.001), and serum C-terminal peptide ( t=7.52, P<0.001) levels were statistically different between the OP patient group and the healthy control group. Compared with the OP_WF group, the bone mineral density score ( t=2.08, P=0.042), calcium ( t=15.75, P<0.001), bone alkaline phosphatase ( t=2.02, P=0.049) and serum C-terminal peptide ( t=3.39, P=0.001) levels were statistically different between the OP_F group and the OP_WF group. Bone mineral density score and bone alkaline phosphatase concentration were related to the expression of miR-92a-3p and were negatively and positively correlated ( r=0.416, P=0.022), respectively ( r=-0.403, P=0.027). The area under the ROC curve was 0.723, and the level of miR-92a-3p had potential significance in the diagnosis of hip fragility fractures ( P=0.006) . Conclusion:miR-92a-3p is highly expressed in OP and has biological significance for the diagnosis of hip fragility fractures.
