ObjectiveTo explore effect of Xianlian Jiedu prescription on the recurrence of colorectal cancer （CRC） and investigate the related mechanisms. MethodsA postoperative recurrence model was established in 25 Balb/c mice by injecting CT26 cells subcutaneously into the armpit， followed by surgical removal of 99% of the subcutaneous tumor. The mice were randomly divided into model group， low-dose Xianlian Jiedu prescription （XLJDP-L） group （6.45 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， medium-dose Xianlian Jiedu prescription （XLJDP-M） group （12.9 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， high-dose Xianlian Jiedu prescription （XLJDP-H） group （25.8 g·kg^-1·d^-1）， and 5-fluorouracil （5-FU） group （1×10^-3 g·kg^-1·d^-1）. The mice were euthanized after 14 days of continuous intervention， and recurrent tumor tissue was harvested. Hematoxylin and eosin （HE） staining was used to observe pathological and morphological changes in the recurrent tumor tissue. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was employed to assess the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen （Ki67）， vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）， and platelet-endothelial cell adhesion molecule （CD31） in recurrent tumor tissue. The Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of angiopoietin-2 （ANG-2）， VEGF， phosphorylated-protein kinase B （p-Akt）， protein kinase B （Akt）， phosphorylated-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （p-PI3K）， and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K） in recurrent tumor tissue. ResultsBefore treatment， there were no statistical differences in tumor volume， tumor weight， and body mass among the XLJDP-L， XLJDP-M， and XLJDP-H groups and the 5-FU group compared to the model group， indicating model stability. After treatment， compared with those in the model group， the tumor volume and tumor weight in the XLJDP-L， XLJDP-M， and XLJDP-H groups and the 5-FU group were significantly reduced （P<0.01）， showing dose dependency. Meanwhile， there were no significant differences in body weight among the XLJDP-L， XLJDP-M， and XLJDP-H groups and the 5-FU group compared to the model group. HE staining showed that compared with that in the model group， tumor tissue in the XLJDP-L， XLJDP-M， and XLJDP-H groups and the 5-FU group had loosely arranged cells， increased intercellular spaces， small and shriveled nuclei， light staining， fewer mitotic figures and atypical nuclei， and increased necrotic areas. IHC showed that compared with those of the model group， the positive rates of Ki67， VEGF， and CD31 in the recurrent tumor tissue of the XLJDP-L， XLJDP-M， and XLJDP-H groups and the 5-FU group were significantly reduced （P<0.01） in a dose-dependent manner. Western blot results showed that compared with those of the model group， the protein expression levels of ANG-2 and VEGF in the recurrent tumor tissue of the XLJDP-L， XLJDP-M， and XLJDP-H groups and the 5-FU group were significantly downregulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the p-Akt/Akt and p-PI3K/PI3K ratios were significantly decreased in a dose-dependent manner （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionXianlian Jiedu prescription significantly inhibits the recurrence of CRC in mice after subcutaneous tumor surgery. The mechanism may involve regulating the PI3K/Akt pathway and downregulating key angiogenic proteins such as ANG-2， VEGF， and CD31.

AIM: To investigate the effect of inhibiting Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ(CAMKⅡ)expression in adult retinal pigment epithelial cell line-19(ARPE-19)cells on the migration, invasion, and tube formation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)in a non-contact co-culture system.METHODS: RNA sequencing was performed on ARPE-19 cells overexpressing CAMKⅡ-δ, and bioinformatics was used to analyze the biological functions of the differentially expressed genes. Transwell inserts was used to construct a non-contact co-culture system of ARPE-19 and HUVECs. The experimental groups included: blank group: only HUVECs were inoculated without ARPE-19 cells; control group: ARPE-19 and HUVECs cells were co-cultured with complete medium; AIP group(CAMKⅡ inhibition group): ARPE-19 cells in AIP(160 nmol/L)were co-cultured with HUVECs in complete medium. The migration, invasion and tube formation abilities of HUVECs were detected. The protein expression levels of CAMKⅡ/AMPK/mTOR/VEGFA were detected by Western blotting.RESULTS:Bioinformatics analysis found that the differentially expressed genes could affect biological processes such as cell growth and death and cell movement. The scratch test and transwell migration test showed that the relative mobility of HUVECs in the AIP group was significantly lower than that in the control group(all P<0.05). However, the invasion and tube formation assay showed that the relative invasion rate and tube formation rate of the AIP group were not significantly different from those of the control group(both P>0.05). Western blotting results showed that the expression levels of CAMKⅡ, P-mTOR, and VEGFA proteins in the AIP group were significantly lower than those in the control group, while the expression level of the P-AMPK protein was significantly higher than that in the control group(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION:In the non-contact co-culture system, inhibition of CAMKⅡ expression in ARPE-19 cells significantly reduced the migration ability of HUVECs, but it cannot change the invasion and tube formation ability, which may be achieved by AMPK/mTOR/VEGFA.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection in patients with emergency hemorrhagic shock.Methods:Patients with hemorrhagic shock and central venous catheterization admitted to the emergency department of Shanghai First People's Hospital from June 2016 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into infected group and non-infected group according to whether catheter-related bloodstream infection occurred. The puncture site samples and catheter tip samples of infected patients were collected for etiological detection and drug sensitivity test. The difference of baseline data between the two groups was analyzed, and the relationship between central venous catheter-associated infection and influencing factors was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:A total of 249 patients were included in this study, including 54 patients in the infected group and 195 patients in the non-infected group. There were significant differences in age, catheterization position, ultrasound-guided puncture, acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ) score, catheter retention time and application of broad-spectrum antibiotics between the infected group and the non-infected group (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age, femoral vein catheterization, no ultrasound-guided puncture, high APACHEⅡ score, long catheter indent time and application of broad-spectrum antibiotics were risk factors for central venous catheter-associated bloodstream infection. Among the 54 infected patients, Staphylococcus epidermidis accounted for 44.4%, followed by Escherichia coli accounted for 24.1% and fungus accounted for 11.1%. The resistance rate of gram-positive cocci to vancomycin was the lowest (3.4%) followed by tetracycline (34.5%), and the highest resistance rate was amoxicillin (100.0%). The resistance rates of gram-negative bacilli to amikacin and ceftriaxone were relatively high, both of which were 94.7%. Conclusions:The risk factors for central venous catheter-related blood stream infection in patients with emergency hemorrhagic shock included advanced age, femoral vein catheterization, no ultrasound-guided puncture, high APACHEⅡ score, long catheter retention time and use of broad-spectrum antibiotics. The common pathogenic bacteria were Staphylococcus epidermidis and Escherichia coli.

Objective Study clinic effect of mini open endoscope assisted-ACDF(MOEA-ACDF)for cervical spondylotic radiculopathy(CSR).Methods From February 2022 to March 2023,CSR patients receiving ACDF in the hospital were included in this study,including conventional ACDF group and MOEA-ACDF group.The preoperative data,operative timeand bone graft fusionwere recorded,VAS score,JOA score,C2-7 Cobb angle and anterior column height of the surgical segment were assessed before and after surgery,and complications were recorded,including wound infection,poor wound healing,hematoma formation,cerebrospinal fluid leakage,nerve injury,and complications related internal fixation.Results There were 41 patients in the conventional ACDF group and 41 patients in the MOEA-ACDF group.Between the two groups,there was no statistically significant difference in preoperative general condition,and there was no statistically significant difference in postoperative VAS pain score,JOA score,C2-7 Cobb angle,and anterior column height.Compared with the conventional ACDF group,the MOEA-ACDF group had a slightly longer surgical time(P=0.02).Compared with pre-operation,the VAS pain scorewas reduced,JOA score,C2-7 Cobb angle,and anterior column height were improved in both groups after operation.There were no postoperative complications such as wound infection,poor wound healing,hematoma formation,cerebrospinal fluid leakage,or nerve damage in both groups.Conclusions The MOEA-ACDF technology for treating CSR can effectively alleviate clinical symptoms,restore cervical spine height and curvature,and achieve clinical effects similar to conventional ACDF surgery,having good effectiveness and safety.Although the operation time of MOEA-ACDF technology is slightly longer than conventional ACDF,it has the advantages of clear and broad surgical field,deep focus,good lighting,less bleeding,and minimal trauma,which makes it con-venient for the operator to perform cervical disc removal,nerve root canal release,posterior longitudinal ligament resection,and reduce nerve,spinal cord,dura mater,and vertebral artery injuries.It is a technology worth pro-moting and applying.

Objective To establish a novel rat model of chronic skeletal muscle composite injury in the lumbar region,to explore its mechanism and treatment method in depth.Methods Twenty-eight SD rats were randomly divided into control group(n = 10),Hitting injury model(HIM)group(n = 9),Composite damage model(CDM)group(n = 9)(vertical blow combined with forced prolonged sitting).Open field test,HE staining and PCR sequencing were performed 3 days after modeling.Results The open field distance of rats in HIM group was significantly shorter than that in the CDM group,and both groups had shorter distances than the control group.HE staining showed multiple muscle fiber breaks,significant widening of muscle gaps,uneven distribution of muscle nuclei,and visible congestion in the model group of simple blow injury;In the CDM group,muscle fibers were ruptured,the muscle gaps were slightly widened,and inflammatory cell infiltration was observed between the muscles,especially around the muscle fiber breakage,with muscle fiber nuclei gathering.A volcano plot of the sequencing result suggested significant differences in the Pf4 gene.GO analysis of muscle tissue in model group rats showed upregulation of oxygen binding and carrier activity pathways.Conclusions This study attempted to establish a composite skeletal muscle injury model to study the pathological changes of chronic skeletal muscle injury in the low back pain and evaluate the efficacy of treatment method.It has practical application value in animal experiments for chronic non-specific low back pain.

Objective:To characterize the histopathological subtypes and their clinicopathological parameters of gender and onset age by common, rare and sparse primary esophageal malignant tumors (PEMT).Methods:A total of 272 437 patients with PEMT were enrolled in this study, and all of the patients were received radical surgery. The clinicopathological information of the patients was obtained from the database established by the State Key Laboratory of Esophageal Cancer Prevention & Treatment from September 1973 to December 2020, which included the clinical treatment, pathological diagnosis and follow-up information of esophagus and gastric cardia cancers. All patients were diagnosed and classified by the criteria of esophageal tumor histopathological diagnosis and classification (2019) of the World Health Organization (WHO). The esophageal tumors, which were not included in the WHO classification, were analyzed separately according to the postoperative pathological diagnosis. The χ 2 test was performed by the SPSS 25.0 software on count data, and the test standard α=0.05. Results:A total of 32 histopathological types were identified in the enrolled PEMT patients, of which 10 subtypes were not included in the WHO classification. According to the frequency, PEMT were divided into common (esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, ESCC, accounting for 97.1%), rare (esophageal adenocarcinoma, EAC, accounting for 2.3%) and sparse (mainly esophageal small cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma, etc., accounting for 0.6%). All the common, rare, and sparse types occurred predominantly in male patients, and the gender difference of rare type was most significant (EAC, male∶ female, 2.67∶1), followed with common type (ESCC, male∶ female, 1.78∶1) and sparse type (male∶ female, 1.71∶1). The common type (ESCC) mainly occurred in the middle thoracic segment (65.2%), while the rare type (EAC) mainly occurred in the lower thoracic segment (56.8%). Among the sparse type, malignant melanoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma were both predominantly located in the lower thoracic segment (51.7%, 66.7%), and the others were mainly in the middle thoracic segment.Conclusion:ESCC is the most common type among the 32 histopathological types of PEMT, followed by EAC as the rare type, and esophageal small cell carcinoma and malignant melanoma as the major sparse type, and all of which are mainly occur in male patients. The common type of ESCC mainly occur in the middle thoracic segment, while the rare type of EAC mainly in the lower thoracic segment. The mainly sparse type of malignant melanoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma predominately occur in the lower thoracic segment, and the remaining sparse types mainly occur in the middle thoracic segment.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Shenbai Jiedu prescription （SBJDF） inhibits the proliferation of colorectal cancer （CRC） HCT116 cells. MethodAfter 48 h treatment of HCT116 cells with SBJDF （0， 0.25， 0.5， 1， 2， 4 g·L^-1）， the viability of HCT116 cells were determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium （MTT） colorimetry. Following the classification of cells into blank control group and SBJDF （1， 2， 4 g·L^-1） groups， the effect of SBJDF on HCT116 cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope. The effects of SBJDF on the proliferation of HCT116 cells and mitochondrial membrane potential （Δψm） were detected by colony formation assay and JC-1 probe， respectively. The flow cytometry was then performed for determining cell cycle distribution and apoptosis. The effects of SBJDF on cell cycle-， apoptosis-， and nuclear factor kappa-B （NF-κB） signaling pathway-related proteins were determined by Western blot. ResultSBJDF effectively inhibited the vitality of HCT116 cells and changed their morphology in a concentration-dependent manner. Compared with the blank control group， SBJDF at 1， 2， 4 g·L^-1 significantly reduced cell colony formation （P<0.05， P<0.01），and SBJDF at 2 and 4 g·L^-1 arrested the HCT116 cell cycle at G₀/G₁ phase （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the blank control group， SBJDF at 1， 2， 4 g·L^-1 remarkably down-regulated the protein expression of CyclinD₁ （P<0.05， P<0.01）. SBJDF at 2 and 4 g·L^-1 lowered the CyclinA₂ and cyclin-dependent kinase 4 （CDK4） （P<0.05， P<0.01）. SBJDF at 4 g·L^-1 reduced the cyclin-dependent kinase 1 （CDK1） （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank control group， SBJDF at 2 and 4 g·L^-1 induced HCT116 cell apoptosis， down-regulated the protein expression of anti-apoptosis-related proteins Bcl-2 and Bcl-xl as well as the NF-κB signaling pathway-related proteins IκB kinase α （IKKα），inhibitor α of NF-κB （IκBα），and phospho-NF-κB p65 （p-p65） （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and diminished the mitochondrial membrane potential of HCT116 cells. ConclusionSBJDF inhibits the proliferation of HCT116 cells， which may be related to its inhibition of the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway and the induction of cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility of absolute ethanol in the treatment of brain arteriovenous malformation (bAVM).Methods:The clinical data of 25 patients with bAVM treated with absolute ethanol in the specialty of intracranial vascular malformations in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from September 2018 to May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 14 males and 11 females, aged 7-62 years, with a median age of 26 years. Among the 25 patients, 18 cases had ruptured bAVM, 7 cases had unruptured bAVM. Spezler-Martin grade<Ⅲ were found in 14 cases, Ⅲ grade in 7 cases, and >Ⅲ grade in 4 cases. The clinical effect and perioperative complications were observed.Results:Among 25 patients, the overall technical success rate was 96.0% (24/25), one of which the target lesion with anhydrous ethanol could not be ablated. The overall complication rate was 28.0% (7/25) with no death. All complications were ischemic, and the incidence of severe complications was 12.0% (3/25). Twenty-five patients were followed up 3 months after the operation, 4 of which had mild complications, 2 recovered completely and 2 made reasonable recovery. In the 3 patients with severe complications, 2 patients made reasonable recovery and 1 patient had significant improvement. The modified rankin scale (MRS) score of all patients with complications was ≤2, and the remaining 18 patients had no new onset clinical symptoms. Thirteen patients were followed up by DSA and MRI. DSA showed no recurrence in the lesions ablated by absolute ethanol. In 2 patients with partial residual malformation after operation, the residual deformities disappeared completely at the time of reexamination. MRI showed that brain edema disappeared in all patients.Conclusions:The ablation of absolute ethanol in bAVM has a high operation success rate, definite clinical effect and low recurrence rate of postoperative bAVM. It can be used as an exploratory treatment.
