Atrial septal defect（ASD）is one of the most common congenital heart diseases in children. Although most children with this condition may not exhibit clinical symptoms，persistent left-to-right shunting can increase the burden on the right heart and compromise cardiac function as they age. Therefore，early intervention is crucial for these children. Percutaneous intervention has superseded conventional surgery as the primary mode of treatment for secondary atrial septal defect in children. The procedure has a low rate of postoperative complications，but carries a substantial risk. Serious complications include unsatisfactory device position or embolization，cardiac erosion，atrioventricular block，thrombosis or thromboembolism，air embolism，and hemolysis. Common complications include headache or migraine，residual shunt，and vascular-related complications. This review focuses on the pathogenesis，clinical presentations，prevention and treatment of complications related to percutaneous intervention of atrial septal defect in children.

Objective To observe the value of feature pyramid network(FPN)for automatic segmentation and semantic feature classification of spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage(sICH)hematoma showed on non-contrast CT.Methods Non-contrast CT images of 408 sICH patients in hospital A(training set)and 103 sICH patients in hospital B(validation set)were retrospectively analyzed.Deep learning(DL)segmentation model was constructed based on FPN to segment the hematoma region,and its efficacy was assessed using intersection over union(IoU),Dice similarity coefficient(DSC)and accuracy.Then DL classification model was established to identify the semantic features of sICH hematoma.Receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn,and the area under the curves(AUC)were calculated to evaluate the efficacy of DL classification model for recognizing semantic features of sICH hematoma.Results The IoU,DSC and accuracy of DL segmentation model for 95％sICH hematoma in training set was 0.84±0.07,0.91±0.04 and(88.78±8.04)％,respectively,which was 0.83±0.07,0.91±0.05 and(88.59±7.76)％in validation set,respectively.The AUC of DL classification model for recognizing irregular shape,uneven density,satellite sign,mixed sign and vortex sign of sICH hematoma were 0.946-0.993 and 0.714-0.833 in training set and validation set,respectively.Conclusions FPN could accurately,effectively and automatically segment hematoma of sICH,hence having high efficacy for identifying semantic features of sICH hematoma.

The first rate-limiting enzyme of the serine synthesis pathway (SSP), phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), is hyperactive in multiple tumors, which leads to the activation of SSP and promotes tumorigenesis. However, only a few inhibitors of PHGDH have been discovered to date, especially the covalent inhibitors of PHGDH. Here, we identified withangulatin A (WA), a natural small molecule, as a novel covalent inhibitor of PHGDH. Affinity-based protein profiling identified that WA could directly bind to PHGDH and inactivate the enzyme activity of PHGDH. Biolayer interferometry and LC-MS/MS analysis further demonstrated the selective covalent binding of WA to the cysteine 295 residue (Cys295) of PHGDH. With the covalent modification of Cys295, WA blocked the substrate-binding domain (SBD) of PHGDH and exerted an allosteric effect to induce PHGDH inactivation. Further studies revealed that with the inhibition of PHGDH mediated by WA, the glutathione synthesis was decreased and intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) were elevated, leading to the inhibition of tumor proliferation. This study indicates WA as a novel PHGDH covalent inhibitor, which identifies Cys295 as a novel allosteric regulatory site of PHGDH and holds great potential in developing anti-tumor agents for targeting PHGDH.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy between the pressing tendon suture with a lateral anchor and the knotted suture with a lateral anchor in the treatment of severe rotator cuff tear under shoulder arthroscopy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted of the 42 patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopedic Sports Medicine, Affiliated Hospital to Qingdao University from December 2018 to December 2019 for severe rotator cuff tear. They were 13 males and 29 females, with an age of (58.3±10.1) years (from 32 to 74 years). The injury was on the right side in 26 cases and on the left side in 16 cases. Of them, 22 received pressing tendon suture with a lateral anchor under shoulder arthroscopy and 20 knotted suture with a lateral anchor under shoulder arthroscopy. The flexion, abduction and external rotation of the shoulder, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain score, University of California-Los Angeles (UCLA) score, Constant-Murley shoulder score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score and imaging MRI Sugaya grading were compared between the 2 groups 12 months after operation.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data between the 2 groups, showing comparability between them ( P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the pressing tendon suture group had better abduction and flexion of the shoulder, a lower VAS pain score and a higher ASES score than the knotted suture group, but the differences were insignificant ( P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the pressing tendon suture group achieved significantly better external rotation (39.2°±11.7°) and significantly higher UCLA score (28.1±4.7) and Constant-Murley shoulder score (77.0±9.3) than the knotted suture group (29.8°±14.6°, 22.1±5.7 and 66.4±11.0) ( P<0.05). At 12 months after operation, the imaging MRI Sugaya grading was significantly lower for the pressing tendon suture group than that for the knotted suture group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of patients with severe rotator cuff tear under shoulder arthroscopy, the pressing tendon suture with a lateral anchor may lead to better clinical prognosis than the knotted suture with a lateral anchor.

This paper reviews the clinical research on the treatment of chronic prostatitis with traditional Chinese medicine in recent years. It is believed that the core of the etiology and pathogenesis of this disease lies in the deficiency of spleen and kidney, dampness heat, phlegm turbid and blood stasis toxin. If the disease lasts for a long time, the spleen and kidney become to the deficiency from excess. The internal treatment of traditional Chinese medicine includes syndrome differentiation, disease differentiation or single prescription, while the external treatment mainly includes herbal bathing, enema, anal administration and acupuncture. Traditional Chinese medicine has advantages in the treatment of this disease. We should continue to study the the mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine for this disease, standardize the syndrome differentiation and treatment and outocmes evaluation, and carry out research on famous prescriptions on prostatitis.

The thalamostriatal pathway is implicated in Parkinson's disease (PD); however, PD-related changes in the relationship between oscillatory activity in the centromedian-parafascicular complex (CM/Pf, or the Pf in rodents) and the dorsal striatum (DS) remain unclear. Therefore, we simultaneously recorded local field potentials (LFPs) in both the Pf and DS of hemiparkinsonian and control rats during epochs of rest or treadmill walking. The dopamine-lesioned rats showed increased LFP power in the beta band (12 Hz-35 Hz) in the Pf and DS during both epochs, but decreased LFP power in the delta (0.5 Hz-3 Hz) band in the Pf during rest epochs and in the DS during both epochs, compared to control rats. In addition, exaggerated low gamma (35 Hz-70 Hz) oscillations after dopamine loss were restricted to the Pf regardless of the behavioral state. Furthermore, enhanced synchronization of LFP oscillations was found between the Pf and DS after the dopamine lesion. Significant increases occurred in the mean coherence in both theta (3 Hz-7 Hz) and beta bands, and a significant increase was also noted in the phase coherence in the beta band between the Pf and DS during rest epochs. During the treadmill walking epochs, significant increases were found in both the alpha (7 Hz-12 Hz) and beta bands for two coherence measures. Collectively, dramatic changes in the relative LFP power and coherence in the thalamostriatal pathway may underlie the dysfunction of the basal ganglia-thalamocortical network circuits in PD, contributing to some of the motor and non-motor symptoms of the disease.

Objective: To investigate the effect of thapsigargin (TG) which can induce endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) on the replication of coxsackievirus B 3 (CV-B3). Methods: After 10 MOI CV-B3 infected HeLa cells were exposed 0.25 μmol/L TG for 3 h, 6 h and 9 h, virus RNA of HeLa cells were extracted and viral replication was evaluated by real time PCR. After 0.25 μmol/L、0.08 μmol/L and 0.025 μmol/L TG exposed, the plaque of CV-B3 was used to confirm further replication of CV-B3. To verify TG induced ERS through three signal pathway, one of among PERK, ATF6 and IRE1 inhibitors GSK2656157, AEBSF and STF-083010, and 0.25 μmol/L TG were used in HeLa cells infected with 10 MOI CV-B3, replication of CV-B3 was evaluated by qRT-PCR. Results: The stimulation of TG did not induce increase of virus replication after post-infection 3 h. However, TG induced replication of virus to increase 2.5 times after post-infection 6 h and 158.6 times after post-infection 9 h. And, the area of viral plaque was significantly increased. ATF6 inhibitors AEBSF significantly inhibited promotion of virus replication from TG. Conclusions TG can promote the replication of CV-B3 through ATF6 signal pathway.

Objective: To observe the changes of endogenous small interfering RNA (siRNA) in H1-Hela cells infected with human rhinovirus 16 (HRV 16). Methods: To determine whether HRV16 infection induced the changes of siRNA, H1-HeLa cells were infected with HRV16 for 12 h, 24 h and 36 h, siRNAs were detected by high-throughput sequencing, second-generation sequencing) and qRT-PCR. Results: The result showed that siRNA was generated differently at different time points post-infection, among which novel_sir907 and novel_sir1950 decreased at three time points. Further validation by qRT-PCR showed that novel_sir907 decreased at 12 h, 24 h and 36 h post-infection compared with the cell control, but novel_sir1950 increased at 12 h then decreased at 24 h and 36 h. Conclusions HRV16 infection induces changes endogenous siRNAs.

Objective: To isolate and identify human rhinovirus (HRV) from throat swab samples from patients with acute respiratory infection in Anhui Bengbu. Methods: The throat swab specimens from 108 patients with acute upper respiratory tract infection diagnosed in the Anhui Bengbu were selected as samples. RNA was extracted and detected by HRV universal primers; H1-Hela cells were infected with the positive samples for virus isolation, and HRV VP1 gene amplification was performed and gene phylogenetic tree analysis of the successfully isolated HRV strains was done. Results: Only 5 samples were positive for HRV by the real-time PCR, and only one sample showed significant cytopathic effects after three passages of H1-Hela cells were infected, and the HRV VP1 gene was amplified by RT-PCR in the sample that was named TYZQ201901. The sequence analysis showed that the VP1 nucleotide homology of the strain with other representative HRV A strains was over 95%. The gene phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the strain had the closest genetic distance to the RMH127/2013 strain, and both were on a branch and was confirmed to be HRV type A virus. Conclusions An HRV type A strain virus was isolated from throat swab samples from patients with acute respiratory infection in Anhui Province by the H1-Hela cells, and the HRV virus separation technology system were initially established.
