Objective To analyze the expressions of receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) in peripheral blood of neonates with necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) and their relationships with the severity of the disease. Methods Ninety-two children with NEC were selected and divided into NEC group, and further divided into mild group (grade Ⅰ, n=60) and severe group (gradeⅡ to Ⅲ, n=32) according to the severity of the disease. Another 60 children with inguinal hernia were selected as control group. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expressions of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA in peripheral blood. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the correlation between RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA expression in peripheral blood of the NEC group. Western blot was used to detect the expression of RIPK3 and MLKL proteins in ileal tissues of NEC and normal ileal tissues. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for severe NEC. The receiver operating characteristic curve was plotted to analyze the value of peripheral blood RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA alone and their combination for predicting severe NEC. Results The relative expression levels of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA in peripheral blood of the NEC group were significantly higher than those in the control group[(2.41±0.52) versus (1.02±0.21), (3.03±0.64) versus (0.93±0.20), P < 0.001]. The relative gray values of RIPK3 and MLKL proteins in ileal tissues of NEC were significantly higher than those in normal ileal tissues[(1.20±0.21) versus (0.34±0.12), (1.13±0.24) versus (0.32±0.11), P < 0.05]. There was a positive correlation between the relative expression level of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA in peripheral blood of children with NEC (r=0.623, P < 0.001). The proportion of children with severe NEC complicated by pneumoperitoneum, multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, and sepsis, as well as the relative expression levels of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA were significantly higher in the severe NEC group than in the mild NEC group (P < 0.05). The relative expression levels of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA were independent risk factors for severe NEC (P < 0.05). The area under the curve for combined prediction of severe NEC by RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA in peripheral blood was larger than that for individual prediction (Z=4.127, 4.261, P < 0.05). Conclusion The expression levels of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA in peripheral blood are elevated in neonates with NEC, and both are associated with the severity of NEC. The combined detection of RIPK3 mRNA and MLKL mRNA has a higher predictive value for severe NEC.

【Objective】 To evaluate the effectiveness of random quality control sampling in blood sample detetion by ELISA. 【Methods】 Blood samples of 5 mL specification of blood donors from our blood station from May to July 2022 were selected for routine operation on a fully automated sampler. J standard substances(3 mL specification) as daily samples were added to A1 well, H12 well and random wells of HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HIV, and -TP, and then placed in a fully automated enzyme immunoassay analyzer for testing. With random well quality control as the internal quality control judgment standard, 20 consecutive tests were conducted and were divided into A1 (well) group, H12 (well) group and random (well) group according to different well positions. Quality control maps were drawn using Levey-Jennings quality control chart with random group as the framework, and were compared with the quality control map of A1 well and H12 well results in the same day. 【Results】 The mean quality control levels of infectious indicators of blood transfusion in blood donors by ELISA were: HBsAg 3.87±0.28, anti-HCV 3.79±0.38, anti-HIV 3.64±0.30 and anti-TP 4.53±0.51. 【Comparison】 of HBsAg, anti-HCV, anti-HIV and anti-TP, between random group, A1 group and H12 group were HBsAg 3.87± 0.28 vs 4.09±0.30 vs 3.64±0.26, anti-HCV 3.78±0.37 vs 3.96±0.38 vs 3.63±0.38, anti-HIV 3.63±0.31 vs 3.82±0.32 vs 3.48±0.28 and anti-TP 4.51±0.51 vs 4.71±0.52 vs 4.36±0.51, The S/CO value of each indicator were H12 group0.05) . Using random group as the quality control framework standard, 5 points in group A1 fell outside of +2s, and 1 point in group H12 fell outside of -2s, resulting in a total of 6 alarms. With the quality control substance placed in A1 well of the ELISA plate, the judgment of detection results of the entire ELISA plate could be inevitably affected, especially the last row of low concentration virus marker samples on the ELISA plate. 【Conclusion】 The application of random quality control sampling method in donor blood by ELISA is scientific and reasonable, which can reduce the systematic error caused by artificial setting of ELISA plate fixed well positions and can also discover edge effects that affect the detection results.

Objective    To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of proximal aortic repair (PAR) versus total arch replacement (TAR) for treatment of acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). Methods     An electronic search was conducted for clinical controlled studies on PAR versus TAR for patients with ATAAD published in Medline via PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Wanfang Database and CNKI since their inception up to April 30, 2022. The quality of each study included was assessed by 2 evaluators and the necessary data were extracted. STATA 16 software was used to perform statistical analysis of the available data. Results    A total of 28 cohort studies involving 7 923 patients with ATAAD were included in this meta-analysis, of whom 5 710 patients received PAR and 2 213 patients underwent TAR, and 96.43% of the studies (27/28) were rated as high quality. The meta-analysis results showed that: (1) patients who underwent PAR had lower incidences of 30 d mortality [RR=0.62, 95%CI (0.50, 0.77), P<0.001], in-hospital mortality [RR=0.64, 95%CI (0.54, 0.77), P<0.001], and neurologic deficiency after surgery [RR=0.84, 95%CI (0.72, 0.98), P=0.032] than those who received TAR; (2) the cardiopulmonary bypass time [WMD=–52.07, 95%CI (–74.19, –29.94), P<0.001], circulatory arrest time [WMD=–10.14, 95%CI (–15.02, –5.26), P<0.001], and operation time [WMD=–101.68, 95%CI (–178.63, –24.73), P<0.001] were significantly shorter in PAR than those in TAR; (3) there was no statistical difference in mortality after discharge, rate of over 5-year survival, renal failure after surgery and re-intervention, volume of red blood cells transfusion and fresh-frozen plasma transfusion, or hospital stay between two surgical procedures. Conclusion     Compared with TAR, PAR has a shorter operation time and lower early and in-hospital mortality, but there is no difference in long-term outcomes or complications between the two procedures for patients with ATAAD.

Objective : To compare the accuracies of implants with dynamic real-time navigation versus digital guide navigation to provide a reference for clinical precision dental implants. Methods: Forty-six cases (seventy teeth) with missing teeth admitted to the Department of Stomatology, Wuzhou Red Cross Hospital from April 2018 to December 2019 were randomly divided into two groups (thirty-five teeth in each group) for dynamic real-time navigation and digital guide navigation implantation techniques. To compare the entry point, apex point, depth and angle deviation of the preoperative and postoperative position of implants in the two groups. SPSS 21.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results : Dental implants were successfully placed in both groups. The deviations of apex point, depth and angle in the dynamic real-time navigation group were all smaller than those in the digital guide navigation group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant deviation in the entry point between the two groups (P > 0.05). Conclusion In this study, both techniques had good clinical effects. The accuracy of dynamic real-time navigation was higher than that of digital guidance.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic immune-me- diated synovial disease with unknown aetiology, therefore, it is considered a chronic disease that cannot be cured. RA is caused by a complex interaction between genetic and environmental factors. As such long-standing efforts have been made for better understanding of disease pathogenesis and the development of new classes of therapeutics, the continuing elucidation of pathogenic events underlying RA mostly relies on animal model studies. Individually animal models allow molecular and spatiotemporal dissection of various pathological processes of RA development. We have herein comprehensively discussed different animal models in induction methods, pathogenesis, pathological events and disease characteristics, hoping to provide the basis and reference for the rational selection of experimental animal models for the basic research and drug screening of RA.

ObjectiveThere are few reports about abnormal oligonucleotide binding fold domain protein genes (OBGs) affecting the initiation of DNA replication in hepatocellular carcinoma through the microchromosome maintenance (MCM) complex. This study aims to explore the roles of reverse-transcription-related genes (RTGs) in Hepatocellular Carcinoma cells (HCC) and the correlation between gene polymorphisms and abnormal gene expression.Methods We created a mouse model by injecting hepatocellular carcinoma cell line H22 (logarithmic growth phase) and dissected the tumor bodies from tumor-forming mice. The control group was treated by isotonic saline without H22. The healthy liver tissue cells were taken from the control mice. The total RNA of the H22 group and control group were extracted, and differentially expressed genes were analyzed. Screening of differentially expressed reverse transcription-related DEGs (RDEGs), GO and KEGG analysis of RDEGs. The interaction analysis of RDEGs encoded proteins, and the correlation analysis of RDEGs polymorphism and gene expression.ResultsThere were 193 differentially expressed RTGs in HCCs, which were involved in two biological procedures, three cell components, one molecular function, three signal pathways, and three functional sites; Its function is mainly concentrated in DNA replication, especially the construction of MCM complex and telomere complex in which OBGs participate in the initiation of replication. Most related genes had OB fold domains. The results also showed that both AS and SNV caused gene polymorphism was positively correlated with gene expression, and most OBGs in HCC had SNV phenomenon, but not occurred in healthy liver tissue.Conclusion Collectively, AS and SNV may be important regulatory factors for gene expression. SNV may particularly affect the function of OBGs in the MCM complex to abnormally initiate DNA replication in HCC.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the e ffects of Zhuangtongyin water extract （ZTYWE）on hemorheology and blood lipid level of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model rats ，and preliminarily explore its molecular biology foundation of reducing arrhythmia after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion. METHODS ：Totally 75 SD rats were divided into control group ，model group and ZTYWE low-dose ，middle-dose and high-dose groups. Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model was established by ligating the left ventricle cyclotron endings for 30 min then reperfusing for 60 min. Since the first day after surgery ，control group and model group were intraperitoneally administrated with same volume normal saline ；ZTYWE low-dose ，middle-dose and high-dose groups were intraperitoneally administrated with medicine solution （6.8，13.6，27.2 g/kg），once a day ，for continuous 28 d. At the 7th， 14th，21st，28th day after surgery ，the incidence rate of arrhythmia of rats were detected. The hemorheology indicators and serum contents of TC ，TG，LDL-C，HDL-C were determined after the last administration. The morphology of myocardial tissue was observed by HE staining. The protein expressions of apoptosis-related factor FAS and FAS-L were detected by Western blotting assay.

Objective:To study the effect of Ganoderma triterpenoids combined with exogenous monosialoteterahexosyl ganglioside (GM1) on cognitive dysfunction in rats with epilepsy. Methods:A total of 75 Sprague-Dawley rats were divided randomly into blank control group, epileptic model group, Ganoderma triterpenoids group, GM1 group and GM1 combined with Ganoderma triterpenoids group (combination group), with 15 rats in each group. All the groups, except the blank control group, were intraperitoneally injected with pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) 35 mg/kg once a day for 28 days. Medication groups were given corresponding administration based on daily intraperitoneal injection of PTZ. They were tested with Morris Water Maze; and were observed with transmission electron microscopy and HE staining for hippocampal neurons. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression of actin-binding protein (Cofilin), synaptophysin (SYN) and growth-associated protein 43 (GAP-43) mRNA in hippocampus of rats. Results:Compared with the blank control group, the escape lantency prolonged in the epileptic model group in all the time points (P < 0.05). Compared with the epileptic model group, the escape lantency shortened in the treatment groups somewhen (P < 0.05). Compared with the epileptic model group, the number of crossing the platform increased in the treatment groups (P < 0.01), and the time of staying in the target quadrant prolonged (P < 0.01); while the number of pyramidal cells increased, the nuclear lysis and fragmentation reduced, the structure of neurons and the number of synapses improved， as well as the organelle structure. Compared with the blank control group, the expression of Cofilin mRNA increased (P < 0.05), and the expression of SYN mRNA and GAP-43 mRNA decreased (P < 0.05) in the epileptic model group; compared with the epileptic model group, the expression of Cofilin mRNA decreased (P < 0.05), and the expression of SYN mRNA increased (P < 0.05) in all the treatment groups, while the expression of GAP-43 mRNA increased (P < 0.05) only in the combination group. Conclusion:Ganoderma triterpenoids, GM1 and their combination can improve the learning and memory abilities of epileptic rats, which may be associated with increasing the expression of SYN and GAP-43, decreasing the expression of Cofilin, to promote the synaptic remodeling of hippocampal tissue and protect brain neurons from PTZ-induced epilepsy.
