AIM:To investigate the effect of circular RNA MYO9A-006(circMYO9A_006)on hypertrophic phenotype of cardiomyocytes and the underlying mechanism.METHODS:The effect of adenovirus-mediated overexpres-sion of circMYO9A_006 on the expression of hypertrophy-related proteins,including β-myosin heavy chain(β-MHC),skeletal muscle actin alpha 1(ACTA1)and atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP),was evaluated in neonatal mouse ventricular cardiomyocytes(NMVCs).Moreover,a neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocyte(NRVC)model of phenylephrine(PE)-in-duced hypertrophy was established.The effect of circMYO9A_006 overexpression on NRVC size was ascertained using Phalloidin-iFluor 647 staining method.Dual-luciferase reporter assay was employed to measure the activity of potential in-ternal ribosome entry sites(IRES)in circMYO9A_006.The translation and intracellular location of the circMYO9A_006-translated protein,MYO9A-208aa,were verified using Western blot.To investigate the role of MYO9A-208aa in the ef-fect of circMYO9A_006 on the cardiomyocyte hypertrophic phenotype,we prepared and used the following adenoviruses:the recombinant circMYO9A_006-ORF adenovirus to express MYO9A-208aa,the recombinant circMYO9A_006-ATG-mut adenovirus that does not express MYO9A-208aa,the recombinant circMYO9A_006 adenovirus,and the adenovirus vector control.These were then employed to infect NRVCs.RESULTS:Successful adenovirus-mediated overexpression of circMYO9A_006 was observed in NMVCs.The increased expression of circMYO9A_006 notably reduced the expres-sion of hypertrophy-related proteins in NMVCs(P<0.01).Concurrently,overexpression of circMYO9A_006 substantially reduced the expression of hypertrophy-associated proteins and diminished the size of PE-induced NRVCs(P<0.05).Dual-luciferase reporter assay identified the activity of 2 IRES in circMYO9A_006.Western blot results indicated that circ-MYO9A_006 could produce the MYO9A-208aa protein with an anticipated molecular weight of 28 kD in NRVCs,primari-ly found in the cytoplasm.Elevated expression of both circMYO9A_006 and MYO9A-208aa consistently reduced the ex-pression of hypertrophy-associated proteins(P<0.01),and counteracted the enlarged size of PE-induced NRVCs(P<0.05).However,increased expression of circMYO9A_006-ATG-mut did not counteract the PE-induced hypertrophic phe-notype of NRVCs.CONCLUSION:circMYO9A_006 attenuates the hypertrophic phenotype of cardiomyocytes by synthe-sizing the MYO9A-208aa protein.

Objective To investigate the effect of remimazolam combined with esmketamine adjuvant medicines on anaesthetic effect and mental symptom in puerperae undergoing cesarean section.Methods Ninety-six full-term puerperae during cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthe-sia,aged 24-38 years,BMI 24-35 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ.All the puerperae were divided into three groups using random number table:remimazolam combined with esketamine group(group RK),esketamine group(group K),and control group(group C),32 puerperae in each group.After the delivery of the fetus,puerperae in group RK were given intravenous injection of remimazolam 0.1 mg/kg,and then intravenous pumping of estaketamine 0.25 mg/kg which was diluted to 20 ml with normal saline(finished in 30 minutes),puerperae in group K were given intravenous pumping of estaketamine 0.25 mg/kg which was diluted to 20 ml with normal saline(finished in 30 minutes),puerperae in group C were given the same dose of normal saline.All puerperae were given PCIA after operation.The anesthetic effect from the fetus de-livery to the end of operation were recorded(grade Ⅰ,no pain;grade Ⅱ,slight pain;grade Ⅲ,with sig-nificant pain).The adverse reactions such as hypertension,tachycardia,and mental symptoms(nystagmus,dizziness,nightmares and hallucinations)during surgery were recorded.The score of Edinburgh postpartum depression scale(EPDS)and incidence of postpartum depression(PPD)at 1 week and 4 weeks after sur-gery were recorded.Results Compared with group C,the proportion of grade Ⅰ anesthetic effect in groups,RK and K was significantly increased,and the proportion of grade Ⅲ anesthetic effect was signifi-cantly decreased(P＜0.05),the EPDS score and the incidence of PPD were significantly decreased at 1 week and 4 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05).Compared with group K,the incidence of mental symptoms during surgery in group RK was significantly decreased(P＜0.05),EPDS score was significantly decreased at 1 week and 4 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in the in-cidences of hypertension,tachycardia between the three groups.Conclusion Remimazolam combined with esketamine for cesarean section can improve the anesthetic effect during surgery,reduce the incidence of in-traoperative mental sympton,decrease the postpartum EPDS score,optimize postpartum depression.

Objective To analyze the changes in left ventricular deformation function in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)treated with different doses of anthracycline chemotherapy using 3D speckle-tracking imaging(3D-STI).Methods 66 DLBCL patients receiving anthracycline chemotherapy were enrolled.Based on the cumulative dose of anthracycline received,the patients were divided into a high-dose group(＞360 mg/m2,n=39)and a low-dose group(≤360 mg/m2,n=27).Patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography before chemotherapy and within one week after completion of the entire chemotherapy cycle.Left ventricular global longitudinal strain(LVGLS),left ventricular global circumferential strain(LVGCS),and other indices were analyzed using 3D-STI to assess changes in left ventricular deformation indices after chemotherapy and between two groups.Results Compared to baseline,DLBCL patients showed significant reductions in LVGLS,LVGCS and left atrial global longitudinal strain(LAGLS)after treatment completion(P＜0.001).When comparing the high-dose group with the low-dose group,there was a significant increase in relative LVGCS change rate at the end of chemotherapy(21.12[6.52,35.37]vs 5.49[-14.73,27.01];P=0.03).However,there were no statistically significant differences in relative left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),LVGLS,LVGCS,LVEF change rate,or LVGLS change rate between the two groups.Conclusions 3D-STI can be a potential method to identify the sub-clinical deterioration of left ventricular systolic function in patients received anthracycline chemotherapy,the difference of change rate of LVGCS may predict the variation of sub-clinical deterioration of left ventricular function between patients received high and low doses of anthracycline chemotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and feasibility of whole exome sequencing (WES), as a molecular diagnosis technique, for adult patients with genetic diseases.Methods:The present retrospective analysis included 445 adult patients (ages 18-80 years) with suspected genetic diseases who underwent whole exome sequencing (WES) from August 2021 to December 2022. The pathogenicity classification of each variant was assessed in accordance with the recommendations developed by the American Society of Medical Genetics and Genomics.Results:The overall positive rate of WES among adult patients with suspected genetic diseases was 28.08% (125/445). The highest positive rate was observed in the age group of 41-50 years (34.33%, 23/67). Among the diagnosed genetic diseases, those affecting the cardiovascular system (63.16%, 84/133), nervous system (18.05%, 24/133), and endocrine system (13.53%, 18/133) ranked as the top three. The most common genetic diseases identified through WES in adult patients were hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (18.80%, 25/133), dilated cardiomyopathy (16.54%, 22/133), Marfan syndrome (15.04%, 20/133), epilepsy (9.02%, 12/133), and familial hypercholesterolemia (4.51%, 6/133). The main causative genes identified included FBN1 (14.29%, 19/133), MYBPC3 (9.02%, 12/133), MYH7 (9.02%, 12/133), LDLR (3.76%, 5/133), TTN (3.76%, 5/133), and TNNI3 (3.01%, 4/133).Conclusion:Applying the WES technique in clinical practice can improve the diagnostic rate of adult genetic diseases, especially in adult patients with suspected genetic conditions involving the cardiovascular system, nervous system, and endocrine system.

The clinical features, examination findings and genetic testing results of a newborn with neurobehavioral developmental abnormality caused by the PAK3 gene mutation in the Department of Neonatology, Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital were retrospectively analyzed in November 11, 2021.The male 9-day-old newborn presented with the difficult-to-wean for 9 days after birth.The child had repeated startle reflexes, decreased muscle tension in the extremities, and partial primitive reflexes.Amplitude-integrated electroencephalogram (aEEG) showed the lower and upper boundary voltage of 10 μV and 40 μV, respectively.Obvious mature sleep-wake cycles were not found, and 2 electric seizures were recorded.The aEEG suggested the moderate-to-severe abnormal aEEG.Magnetic resonance imaging showed that the corpus callosum was slightly thinner.The family-centered diagnostic exosome sequencing showed a missense mutation of the PAK3 gene[c.1327 (exon18) G>A, p.G443R], which has not been previously reported at home and abroad.This case enriched the clinical phenotype of the PAK3 gene mutation and suggested the potential value of whole genome sequencing in clinical diagnosis and genetic guidance.

Objective:To explore the effect of cold-strap endoscopic mucosal resection (CS-EMR) in patients with colorectal polyps.Methods:A prospective randomized clinical trial was conducted to 320 selected patients with colorectal polyps diagnosed by Shenzhen Luohu District People′s Hospital from May 2019 to June 2021. The patients were randomly divided into CS-EMR group and HS-EMR group with 160 cases each, using a random number table generated by Excel 2007. The main parameters for statistical analysis contain the process indicators of the two groups of surgical methods, the complete polypectomy rate of patients after surgery, the degree of postoperative pain and the recovery of gastrointestinal function, and the differences in surgical complications.Results:The polypectomy time of CS-EMR group was shorter than that of HS-EMR group: (4.11 ± 1.20) min vs. (4.42 ± 0.98) min, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The score of visual analogue pain scale (VAS) in CS-EMR group was lower than that in HS-EMR group at 4 and 12 hours after operation: (3.11 ± 0.78) scores vs. (3.48 ± 0.80) scores, (3.38 ± 0.80) scores vs. (3.61 ± 0.92) scores, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The first anal exhaust time and first defecation time in CS-EMR group were lower than those in HS-EMR group: (27.83 ± 5.01) h vs. (29.66 ± 4.84) h, (43.73 ± 7.80) h vs. (47.28 ± 8.14) h, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The complications in CS-EMR group were significantly lower than those in HS-EMR group: 5.63% (9/160) vs. 12.50% (20/160), with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The effect of CS-EMR in the treatment of colorectal polyps is not different from that of HS-EMR, but the former has the advantages of short resection time, rapid recovery of gastrointestinal function after operation, light pain and less complications.

Transcatheter tricuspid valve intervention is the new frontier of interventional cardiology. The LuX-Valve is a radial force-independent orthotopic tricuspid valve replacement device developed in China. The LuX-Valve Plus transcatheter tricuspid valve replacement (TTVR) system is changed from the trans-atrial to the transjugular approach, which further reduces trauma and pulmonary complications compared with the first generation LuX-Valve. The first-in-human study has been completed at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University and an exploratory multicentre clinical study is underway. Echocardiography plays an important role in pre-TTVR screening, intraoperative guidance and postoperative evaluation and follow-up, especially two-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography (2D-TEE) and three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography (3D-TEE). However, there is a lack of appropriate intraoperative guidance and assessment protocols. In this study, we briefly described the protocols and imaging considerations for intraoperative 2D-TEE and 3D-TEE to ensure the successful implantation of TTVR.

Objective:To investigate the effect of instantaneous flow rate on the consistency of diagnostic accuracy of severe degenerative mitral regurgitation (DMR) using proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA).Methods:From June 2019 to June 2021, 75 patients with DMR who underwent echocardiography in Department of Echocardiography of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University were prospectively enrolled. The instantaneous flow rate of DMR during the systolic phase was calculated using M-mode PISA(PISA M-mode), and a time-integrated curve was plotted. Regurgitant volume (RVol) and effective regurgitant orifice area (EROA) were calculated by traditional PISA (PISA max), pair PISA (PISA pair), and PISA M-mode, respectively. RVol acquired from cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) volumetric method in 22 patients of the enrolled patients. The correlation and consistency of RVol acquired between the three PISA methods and CMR were compared. Agreement of diagnostic accuracy of severe mitral regurgitation (sMR) acquired between the three PISA methods and multi-parameter algorithm by American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) was analyzed using Cohen′s Kappa analysis. Results:The curve of instantaneous flow rate of DMR showed unimodal pattern with the peak at mid-late systolic phase. The correlation of RVol acquired between PISA methods and CMR was moderate for PISA max and PISA pair ( r=0.77, 0.80, both P<0.001), whereas PISA M-mode presented strong correlation with CMR ( r=0.87, P<0.001). RVol acquired from PISA max was larger than that of CMR[(69.1±37.1) ml vs (49.0±29.0)ml, P=0.002]. Both PISA max and PISA pair were shown moderate agreement of diagnostic accuracy of sMR with ASE multi-parameters algorithm (RVol: κ=0.496, 0.525, both P<0.001; EROA: κ=0.570, 0.578, both P<0.001), while PISA M-mode presented strong agreement (RVol: κ=0.867 and EROA: κ=0.802, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Based on the unimodal pattern of instantaneous flow rate in patients with DMR, PISA max may significantly overestimate RVol, exposing a significant proportion of patients with DMR to unnecessary MR surgery. PISA M-mode presents better correlation and consistency with CMR on the quantification of RVol compared with PISA max and PISA pair, and may improve the diagnostic accuracy of quantification of sMR using PISA.
