Aim To investigate the levels of a disintegrin and metalloprotease 10(ADAM-10)and soluble uro-kinase plasminogen activator receptor(suPAR)in the serum of hypertension patients with atherosclerosis and their relation-ship with the severity of disease.Methods From February 2021 to February 2023,125 hypertension patients with atherosclerosis who visited our hospital were collected as the study group,and 76 healthy people were collected as control group.The patients in the study group were grouped into mild group(n=40),moderate group(n=42)and severe group(n=43)according to the degree of atherosclerosis,after 60 days of treatment,the patients were grouped into a good prog-nosis group(n=74)and a poor prognosis group(n=51)based on their prognosis.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to measure serum ADAM-10 and suPAR levels;Clinical data of patients with different prognosis were compared;Pearson method was applied to analyze the relationship between serum ADAM-10,suPAR levels and carotid in-tima-media thickness(IMT)in patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis;Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of poor prognosis in patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis;Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to evaluate the predictive value of ADAM-10 and suPAR alone and jointly for poor prognosis of hypertension with atherosclerosis.Results The levels of serum ADAM-10 and suPAR were significantly higher in the study group than those in control group(P＜0.05);The serum ADAM-10 and suPAR levels in moderate group and severe group were obviously higher than those in mild group(P＜0.05),while the serum ADAM-10 and suPAR levels were obviously higher in severe group than those in moderate group(P＜0.05);The serum ADAM-10 and suPAR levels,left and right IMT,systolic blood pressure,and diastolic blood pressure of patients with poor prognosis were signifi-cantly higher than those of patients with good prognosis(P＜0.05);Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum ADAM-10 and suPAR levels in patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis were positively correlated with systolic blood pres-sure,diastolic blood pressure and IMT(P＜0.001);Logistic regression analysis showed that the increased levels of systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure,ADAM-10,suPAR and IMT were risk factors for poor prognosis of hypertension patients with atherosclerosis(P＜0.05);ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum AD-AM-10 and suPAR levels alone and jointly predicting poor prognosis of hypertension with atherosclerosis was 0.819,0.830 and 0.900,respectively,the combination of the two was superior to their individual predictions(Zcombination-AD AM-10=2.766,P=0.006;Zcombination-suPAR=2.602,P=0.009).Conclusion The levels of serum ADAM-10 and suPAR in patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis are significantly increased,and are positively correlated with the severity of atherosclero-sis.Both of them have a high predictive value for evaluating the prognosis of patients with hypertension and atherosclerosis.

Objective:To investigate the application value of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM) in children.Methods:The clinical data of 77 PBM children who underwent ERCP in General Surgery Department of Children's Hospital affiliated to Nanjing Medical University between January 2018 and December 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Clinical characteristics, classification and post-operative nursing interventions were summarized, and vital signs, changes of biochemical markers and the occurrence of postoperative complications were compared and recorded.Results:77 patients were classified according to Japanese Study Group on Pancreaticobiliary Maljunction (JSGPM), including 34 patients with type A, 18 patients with type B, 21 patients with type C, and 4 patients with type D. There were 68 patients with congenital bile duct dilation and 9 patients without congenital bile duct dialtion. 92 ERCP procedures were performed under general anesthesia, and 91 cases were successful with a success rate of 98.91%. Among these cases, including 7 cases of endoscopic sphincterotomy, 28 cases of endoscopic balloon dilation of the nipple, 22 cases of endoscopic probe dilation, 22 cases of endoscopic stone removal by balloon or basket, 35 cases of endoscopic retrograde biliary stent drainage, 4 cases of endoscopic pancreatic duct drainage, 18 cases of endoscopic nasobiliary drainage, 2 cases of endoscopic nasobiliary drainage, and 14 cases of biliary stent removal. In 77 children with PBM, body temperature, FLACC score, and laboratory-related biochemical indexes including direct bilirubin, serum amylase, ALT, AST and CGT decreased significantly after ERCP, and all the differences were statistically significant (all P value <0.001). The incidence of postoperative complications was 15.38%(14/91), including hyperamylasemia in 9 cases (9.89%) and abdominal pain in 5 cases (5.49%). Conclusions:ERCP is safe and effective in the treatment of abnormal confluence of pancreatic duct in children.

Objective:To explore the application value of free nail flaps in reconstruction of nail bed and fingertip defect.Methods:From January 2018 to June 2020, nine patients with free nail flap transplantation to treat fingertip injuries in Lishui People′s Hospital were included in this study. According to the Allen classification, 6 patients were characterized as type Ⅱ and 3 were characterized as type Ⅲ. Evaluation was based on the patients′ medical records and follow-up, including postoperative healing of recipient and donor sites, two-point discrimination, the Chinese Medical Association Hand Surgery Society′s evaluation of the function of severed finger replantation, and Michigan Hand Outcomes Questionnaire (MHQ) and Foot Function Index (FFI).Results:All patients successfully completed the operation, the operation time was 3.0-5.0 h (average 4.1 h), the intraoperative blood loss was 100-250 ml (average 178 ml), and the follow-up time was 12-40 months (average 25 months). The nails and flaps of all patients survived with primary healing. No complications were observed after surgery. The appearance of the reconstructed finger of 9 patients was similar to that of the uninfected side; the flap two-point discrimination was 5.0-7.5 mm; the replantation score and MHQ results were satisfactory. The toenail of the donor site grew well, and no deformity or pain with walking was noted.Conclusions:The free toenail flap was used to treat fingertip defects, with satisfactory clinical results in repairing tissue defects, reconstructing nail bed and maintaining finger length.

Objective:To analyze the functional connectivity (FC) characteristics of sensory motor network (SMN) in patients with bipolar disorder type Ⅰ (BD-Ⅰ) by independent component analysis (ICA), and explore the correlation between abnormal SMN and clinical symptoms.Methods:Eighteen patients with BD-Ⅰ (BD-Ⅰ group) and 20 matched normal controls (HC group) were included.Both groups received resting state fMRI (rs-fMRI) scanning.Based on ICA-fMRI data, one-sample t-test and two-sample t-test were used to analyze the components of SMN and to explore abnormal brain regions between the two groups.Functional network analysis (FNC) was also used to explore the functional connectivity between SMN and other brain networks.Pearson correlation analysis were conducted by SPSS 17.0 to measure the potential associations between intra-and inter-network functional connectivity and age, education, score of Bech-Rafaelsen mania rating scale (BRMS), score of positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) and other indicators. Results:In BD-Ⅰ group, the functional connection in the right paracentral lobule (MIN: x=8, y=-32, z=68, t=4.86, P<0.001) and the right postcentral gyrus (MIN: x=41, y=-26, z=53, t=3.33, P<0.001) in SMN were higher than those in HC group.Compared with HC group, the connectivity value in patients with BD-Ⅰ increased between SMN-DAN (0.247±0.073, -0.078±0.080, t=-2.974, P<0.01, FDR adjusted), while the connectivity value decreased between SMN-DMN(-0.037±0.054, 0.272±0.067, t=3.520, P<0.01, FDR adjusted) and between SMN-rFPN(-0.034±0.055, 0.231±0.070, t=2.939, P<0.01, FDR adjusted). Conclusion:The sensorimotor network of patients with BD-Ⅰ has abnormal functional connections within and between networks, and FC values in some networks are positively correlated with manic symptoms, which may be part of the neural mechanisms of patients with BD-Ⅰ.
