The number of patients with reduced blood volume due to haemorrhage, fractures, severe infections, extensive burns and tumours is increasing, and traditional blood products are no longer able to meet the increasing clinical demand. Therefore, plasma substitutes have become particularly important in fluid resuscitation, especially artificial colloidal solutions, which have a sustained volume expansion time and a good volume expansion effect, and can significantly improve the circulatory status of patients. This article aims to review the classification of artificial colloidal plasma substitutes and their research progress in clinical practice, in order provide a more rigorous, professional and standardized reference for medicine.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of endoscopic grading of gastric intestinal metaplasia (EGGIM) score under acetic acid-enhanced narrow band imaging (AA-NBI) observation mode for gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). Methods A total of 120 patients who underwent gastroscopy at Jinshan Hospital of Fudan University from February 2022 to February 2023 were selected. All patients underwent both white light and AA-NBI endoscopy, with photographic records of intestinal metaplasia in five areas: greater curvature of antrum, lesser curvature of antrum, greater curvature of corpus, lesser curvature of corpus and incisura. EGGIM score was performed: 0 for no intestinal metaplasia, 1 point for focal intestinal metaplasia (GIM area ratio≤30%), 2 points for extensive intestinal metaplasia (GIM area ratio＞30%), with a total score of 10 points. Targeted biopsies were performed on suspicious GIM lesions found during endoscopy. If no suspicious GIM lesions were observed, random biopsies were performed according to the updated Sydney system. The pathological histological examination results were staged based on the operative link on gastric intestinal metaplasia assessment (OLGIM) system. The diagnostic value of EGGIM score for OLGIM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ patients was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of AA-NBI in detecting GIM were 96.3%, 91.6%, 94.5%, 95.0%, and 93.6%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve for EGGIM diagnosing OLGIM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ was 0.952 (95%CI 0.914-0.990). The optimal cut-off value for EGGIM was 5 points, with a sensitivity of 96.7% (95%CI 87.6%-99.4%) and specificity of 88.1% (95%CI 76.5%-94.7%). Conclusions EGGIM score (≥5 points) under AA-NBI mode has good diagnostic capability for patients with OLGIM stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ.

Objective To investigate the reliability and validity of the assessment tools of Brief ICF Core Sets for Arthroplasty of Knee Osteoarthritis in Perioperative Period(ICSAKOPP). Methods From May,2022 to April,2023,320 patients undergoing knee arthroplasty were selected in Peking University Third Hospital,China-Japan Friendship Hospital,Peking University First Hospital and Chinese PLA General Hospital.Trained assessors used Brief ICSAKOPP to evaluate all enrolled patients before arthroplasty,three days(±one day)after arthroplasty,three weeks(±one week)after arthroplasty,and three months(±one month)after ar-throplasty.Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index(WOMAC)scores were recorded at the same time.Five professionals were asked to score all the items of Brief ICSAKOPP,and the content validity index(CVI)was caculated. Results A total of 64 cases were dropped down.CVI of all the items of the Brief ICSAKOPP were above 0.8,with a av-erage CVI of the scale of 0.938.The Cronbach's α coefficient of the Brief ICSAKOPP was 0.813.There was a moderate correlation(r=0.681,P<0.001)between the overall Brief ICSAKOPP and WOMAC scores,as well as body functional dimension score(r=0.668,P<0.001)and activities and participation dimension score(r=0.657,P<0.001). Conclusion Brief ICSAKOPP is good in content validity,internal consistency reliability and criterion validity.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of different doses of luteolin on memory function and apoptosis-related proteins of aging rats induced by D-galactose.Methods:Forty-eight SPF-grade male Wistar rats aged 6-8 weeks were randomly divided into control group, model group, luteolin low-dose group (25 mg/kg), medium-dose group (50 mg/kg), high-dose group (100 mg/kg), and vitamin C group (100 mg/kg), with 8 rats in each group. D-galactose (1 000 mg/kg) was subcutaneously injected to establish the aging rat model, while luteolin was used for preventive treatment. The Morris water maze test was used to evaluate the learning and memory abilities of the rats.Transmission electron microscopy was used to detect the morphology of hippocampal neurons in rats.Spectrophotometry was used to detect the levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), and the total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC). RT-PCR was used to detect miR-34a mRNA expression.Western blot technique was used to detect the expression levels of silent regulator protein 1 (SIRT1), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), cleaved caspase-3, p53, and p21. Statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 22.0, and one-way ANOVA was used for multi-group comparison, followed by LSD- t test for further pairwise comparisons. Results:(1) The differences in escape latency among the 6 groups of rats were statistically significant ( F=120.93, P<0.001). The latency of first finding the platform location of the model group rats ((54.61±3.60) s) was higher than that of the control group ((10.54±4.27) s) ( P<0.05). The latency of first finding the platform location of rats in the low, medium and high dosage groups of luteolin ((45.50±3.81)s, (37.46±2.94) s, (32.32±3.14) s) was lower than that of the model group ((54.61±3.60) s) (all P<0.05). (2) The differences of SOD, MDA, T-AOC, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 levels in the cerebral cortex of the 6 groups of rats were all statistically significant ( F=281.636, 75.119, 208.228, 38.999, 28.428, 52.767, all P<0.001). Compared with the control group, the model group showed abnormal levels of inflammatory factors and antioxidant indexes. In the medium and high dosage groups of luteolin, the SOD and T-AOC contents in the cerebral cortex of rats were higher than those in the model group (all P<0.05), while the levels of MDA, TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 were lower than those in the model group (all P<0.05). (3) The differences in relative expression levels of miR-34a mRNA among the 6 groups of rats were statistically significant ( F=81.439, P<0.001). The expression levels of miR-34a mRNA in the hippocampal tissues of rats in the luteolin treatment group were lower than those in the model group ( P<0.05). (4) The differences in protein expression levels of SIRT1, p53, and p21 in the hippocampal tissues of the 6 groups of rats were statistically significant ( F=159.946, 38.342, 123.608, all P<0.001). The expression levels of p53 and p21 in the medium and high dosage groups of luteolin were lower than those in the model group (all P<0.05), while the expression level of SIRT1 protein was higher than that in the model group ( P<0.05). (5) The differences in protein expression levels of Bcl-2 and cleaved caspase-3 in the hippocampal tissues of the 6 groups of rats were statistically significant ( F=112.659, 43.296, both P<0.05). The expression levels of Bcl-2 in the low, medium, and high dosage groups of luteolin ((0.24±0.04), (0.40±0.03), (0.48±0.05) pg/μg) were higher than those in the model group ((0.09±0.06) μg) ( P<0.05), while the expression levels of cleaved caspase-3 in the low, medium, and high dosage groups of luteolin ((0.62±0.04), (0.61±0.09), (0.51±0.10) μg) were lower than those in the model group ((0.75±0.05) μg) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Luteolin can alleviate cellular oxidative damage through downregulating the miR-34a SIRT1/p53 signaling pathway and reducing cell apoptosis.

AIM: To observe the changes of nerve fiber thickness and vessel density in macula and optic disc following femtosecond laser-assisted and conventional phacoemulsification cataract surgery through optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA).METHODS: A total of 65 cases(85 eyes)that diagnosed with age-related cataract and received surgery in Aier Eye Hospital(East of Chengdu)were included in this prospective nonrandomized controlled study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the surgery choice, with 23 cases(30 eyes)in femtosecond laser assisted group, and 42 cases(55 eyes)in traditional phacoemulsification group. OCTA was used to compare the changes in central macular thickness, thickness of nerve fiber layer in optic disc, vessel density and blood perfusion preoperatively, and at 1 d and 1 mo postoperatively.RESULTS: BCVA of patients in the two groups was significantly improved and IOP was significantly reduced at 1 mo postoperatively(all P<0.01). The macular nerve fiber layer thickness of the femtosecond laser-assisted group was increased at 1 d and 1 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05), while there was no statistical difference in the traditional phacoemulsification group before and after surgery(all P>0.05); there were significant differences in nerve fiber layer thickness in optic disc, vessel density and blood perfusion in both macula and optic disc of the traditional phacoemulsification group(all P<0.05), but there were no differences in the femtosecond laser assisted group(all P>0.05). Furthermore, there were no significant differences in foveal avascular zone area in the two groups of patients(all P>0.05).CONCLUSION: Femtosecond laser-assisted cataract surgery had less impact on retinal vessels.

Objective To explore the feasibility of integrated imaging of portal vein and hepatic vein with"three low-contrast agents"combined with energy spectrum CT technology.Methods A total of 100 patients with enhanced abdominal CT scans were selected.The patients were randomly divided into two groups.The patients of experimental group(n=50)were injected with the isotonic con-trast agent iodixanol(320 mg I/mL)at a flow rate of 3 mL/s and a total volume of 1.2 mL/kg,and underwent energy spectrum CT scan in the portal venous phase.The patients of control group(n=50)were injected with the sub-hypertonic contrast agent iohexol(350 mg I/mL)at a flow rate of 5 mL/s and a total volume of 1.5 mL/kg,and underwent conventional multi-phase spiral CT enhancement scan.The image quality and radiation dose of portal vein and hepatic vein were compared between the two groups.Results The CT value of main portal vein in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically sig-nificant(P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance in main portal vein contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR),main portal vein signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),hepatic vein CT value,and hepatic vein CNR between the two groups(P＞0.05).The SNR and image standard deviation(SD)of the hepatic vein in the control group were better than those in the experimental group(P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance in the subjective scores of portal vein and hepatic vein between the two groups(P＞0.05).The volume CT dose index(CTDIvol),dose length product(DLP),and effective dose(ED)of the portal venous phase spectrum CT scan in the experimental group were lower than those of the conventional single-phase spiral CT scan in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion"Three low-contrast agents"combined with energy spectrum CT technology can realize integrated imaging of portal vein and hepatic vein in late portal vein,and can reduce radiation dose.

Objective:To analyze the hard tissue thickness in the crown of primary teeth by CBCT.Methods:The CBCT imaging data of 47 children were included,and the hard tissue thickness of primary teeth was measured by MIMICS software.SPSS 22.0 was used for data analysis.Results:The average thickness in the mesial surfaces was the smallest(P＜0.01),except for the libial surface of maxillary central incisor and the distal surface of mandibular first primary molar.In primary anteriors,the thickness in the same sur-face of maxillary teeth was greater than that of mandibular teeth significantly(P＜0.01)except for the libial surface of primary canine.In primary molars,the thickness of hard tissue in the same part of the distal and lingual side of the maxillary teeth was greater than that of the mandibular teeth(P＜0.01),and the thickness in the buccal side of maxillary teeth was lower than that of the mandibular teeth(P＜0.01).Conclusion:The distribution of hard tissue thickness of primary teeth in different position is different.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients of chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection (CAEBV) with intestinal involvement misdiagnosed as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical characteristics, laboratory results, digestive endoscopic findings, histological results, treatment and prognosis of 10 patients with CAEBV intestinal involvement who were misdiagnosed as IBD and treated at the Department of Hematology, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from February 2019 to November 2022. Epstein-Barr virus-encoded small RNA (EBER) was detected by in situ hybridization. Results:Among the 10 patients with CAEBV, eight were males and two were females. Seven patients had been misdiagnosed as ulcerative colitis and three misdiagnosed as Crohn′s disease. The median age of onset was 36 years (ranged from 26 to 52 years), and the median time from onset to CAEBV diagnosis was 18.5 months (ranged from 2.0 to 96.0 months). The main clinical characteristics of these patients included fever >38.5 ℃ in 10 cases, diarrhea in seven cases, abdominal pain in seven cases, abdominal lymph node enlargement in six cases and hematochezia in seven cases. Six patients primarily presented with gastrointestinal symptoms, and seven patients had involvement of extraintestinal organs, three patients developed hemorrhagic shock due to gastrointestinal bleeding. The laboratory findings included anemia in seven cases, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate in six cases, decreased natural killer cell activity in five cases, and elevated ferritin in three cases. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA were detected in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of nine patients, with a median viral load of 23 000 copies/mL. Seven patients were tested positive for anti-EBV viral capsid antigen IgG and nuclear antigen 1 IgG. The main endoscopy findings were hyperemia, edema of the affected intestinal wall mucosa, which could be accompanied by erosion, multiple scattered shallow ulcers with varying sizes. There were six patients with total colon involvement. The rectum was involved in three patients, and the esophagus, gastric antrum, duodenum and small intestine were each involved in one patient. Seven patients underwent follow-up colonoscopy after diagnosis, and four cases progressed. All 10 patients showed active chronic inflammation in the histopathological examinations of their intestinal tissue, with crypt changes in four cases and granulomatous changes in one cases. The intestinal tissues of eight patients were positive for EBER staining, and EBER positive cells≥50 cells/high-power field in seven patients. Seven patients were treated with 5-aminosalicylic acid before the correct diagnosis. Five patients had not improved or progressed upon the follow-up colonoscopy. Two patients died of uncontrolled massive hemorrhage of digestive tract.Conclusions:The clinical, endoscopic and pathological findings of patients with CAEBV intestinal involvement lack specificity. For IBD patients initially diagnosed accompanied by fever and evidence of extraintestinal organ involvement, it is recommended to simultaneously detect EBV DNA in PBMCs and blood plasma, EBER in intestinal tissue, and identify the main EBV-infected cells in peripheral blood and/or tissue, to distinguish CAEBV.

Recent studies have shown that the formation of the primary cilium is associated with a specific cellular organelle known as the midbody remnant(MBR),which is a point-like organelle formed by shedding of the midbody at the end of mitosis.MBRs move along the cell surface close to the center body and regulate it to form primary cilia at the top of the centriole.Primary cilia can act as an organelle to inhibit tumorigenesis,and it is lost in a variety of tumors.Studies have shown that the accumulation of MBRs in tumor cells affects ciliogenesis;in addition,both MBRs and primary cilia are degraded in tumor cells through the autophagy pathway,and MBRs can also transfer tumor signaling pathway factors to primary cilia affecting tumorigenesis.In this article,the basic structure and the formation process of MBR and primary cilia are reviewed and the mechanism of MBRs regulating ciliogenesis is elaborated.The significance of MBR-mediated ciliogenesis in tumorigenesis and its potential as a target for cancer treatment are discussed.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and surgical treatment of patients with cervical bronchogenic cyst.Methods:This study enrolled 14 cases of cervical bronchogenic cysts confirmed by surgery and pathology in our hospital from Sep 2015 to Sep 2020 to discuss clinical, imaging features and diagnosist.Results:Cysts lay in the left neck in 8 cases and in the right side in 6 cases, with the largest diameter of 5.8 cm and the smallest of 0.8 cm (3.4±1.7) cm. Cysts were closely related to the thyroid in 10 cases, adjacent to the recurrent laryngeal nerve in 2 cases. The postoperative pathology established the diagnosis of bronchogenic cyst, and no patients suffered from recurrence during the follow-up period.Conclusions:Cervical bronchogenic cyst is a rare congenital malformation of extrathoracic bronchogenic cyst. Final diagnosis is dependent upon pathology. Complete surgical resection is the key to prevent recurrence.
