N-乙酰-5-羟色胺对视网膜缺血-再灌注损伤大鼠视网膜 Fas、FasL 蛋白表达的影响

目的　探讨N-乙酰-5-羟色胺（N-acetylserotonin，NAS）对视网膜缺血-再灌注损伤（retina ischemia-reperfusion injury，RIRI）大鼠视网膜Fas、FasL蛋白表达的影响。方法　取健康成年Sprague Dawley大鼠54只，将大鼠随机分为正常组（6只）、RIRI组（24只）与NAS组（24只）；采用高眼压法建立大鼠RIRI模型，依据造模后不同时间点将RIRI组与NAS组大鼠又分为6 h、12 h、24 h及72 h四个亚组。NAS组于造模前30 min腹腔注射NAS（5 mg·kg^-1），RIRI组腹腔注射等剂量的生理盐水。通过HE染色在光学显微镜下观察各组大鼠视网膜形态学变化，并记录各组大鼠视网膜厚度及视网膜神经节细胞数，采用免疫组织化学染色法检测NAS对RIRI大鼠视网膜Fas、FasL蛋白表达的影响。结果　HE染色显示，正常组大鼠视网膜各层细胞分界清晰，形态正常，神经细胞排列整齐；RIRI组大鼠再灌注后6 h视网膜各层出现水肿，以神经节细胞层及内核层较显著，神经节细胞数较正常组减少；随后视网膜水肿进一步加重，神经节细胞继续减少；NAS组大鼠在再灌注后6 h、12 h、24 h 视网膜水肿程度较 RIRI组轻，NAS组在再灌注后72 h视网膜厚度较 RIRI组厚，NAS组各时间点神经节细胞数均较 RIRI组多，差异均有统计学意义（均为P＜0.05）。免疫组织化学染色显示，正常组几乎未见 Fas⁺细胞。再灌注后6 h，RIRI组视网膜神经节细胞及内核层开始出现少量 Fas⁺细胞；再灌注后12 h，RIRI组视网膜 Fas⁺细胞表达逐渐增多；再灌注后24 h视网膜Fas⁺细胞数达到高峰，棕色阳性染色细胞分布在视网膜神经节细胞层、内丛状层、内核层及神经纤维层；再灌注后 72 h 视网膜 Fas⁺细胞较再灌注后 24 h 减少。NAS组在再灌注后6 h、12 h、24 h、72 h 视网膜 Fas⁺细胞数均较 RIRI组各时间点减少，再灌注后24 h，Fas⁺细胞数达较高水平，随后下降，差异均有统计学意义（均为P＜0.05）。正常组视网膜可见 FasL 全层低表达。RIRI组再灌注后 6 h，视网膜神经节细胞层和神经纤维层存在少量 FasL⁺细胞；再灌注后12 h FasL蛋白表达逐渐增多；再灌注后24 h FasL⁺细胞数达高峰，可见深棕色的细胞膜及细胞质染色细胞分布在视网膜神经节细胞层、内丛状层、内核层及神经纤维层；再灌注后72 h FasL蛋白的阳性表达逐渐减少。NAS组再灌注后6 h、12 h、24 h、72 h 视网膜FasL⁺细胞数均少于 RIRI组各时间点阳性细胞数，差异均有统计学意义（均为P＜0.05）。结论　NAS可通过抑制RIRI大鼠视网膜细胞Fas、FasL蛋白的表达，减轻缺血再灌注对大鼠视网膜细胞造成的损伤。     

A conceptual model and detailed framework for stress-related,strain-related,and overuse athletic injury

A multitude of athletic injuries occur when the various tissues that make up the human body experience stresses and strains that exceed their material strength. The precise amount of stress and strain that any given tissue can withstand is determined by the mechanical properties and resultant strength of that particular tissue. These mechanical properties are directly determined by an individual’s physiology and acute regulation of these properties. A number of theoretical frameworks for athletic injury occurrence have been proposed, however, a detailed conceptual framework for injury aetiology that considers the interplay between the physiological and mechanical factors and outlines the causal pathways to tissue damage and injury is needed. This will guide injury research towards a more thorough investigation of causal mechanisms and understanding of risk factors. Further, it is important to take into account the considerable differences in loading patterns which can result in varying injury outcomes such as acute stress-related, strain-related, or overuse injury. Within this article a simplified conceptual model of athletic injury is proposed along with a detailed, evidence-informed, conceptual framework for athletic injury aetiology that focuses on stress-related, strain-related, and overuse injury.     

非小细胞肺癌新辅助靶向及免疫治疗研究进展和展望

肺癌是全球发病率和死亡率最高的恶性肿瘤。近年来,随着新型药物的出现和治疗模式的优化,肺癌患者的预后已有一定改善。新辅助治疗是指对潜在可接受手术切除的患者,先给予术前抗肿瘤治疗后再行手术治疗。新辅助治疗通过术前治疗可以缩小肿瘤体积,降低肿瘤分期;并且可以杀灭患者机体中循环肿瘤细胞及微转移病灶,令患者远期生存获益。靶向治疗及免疫治疗已被应用于晚期非小细胞肺癌(non-small cell lung cancer,NSCLC)的一线治疗。因此,有临床试验尝试将以上两种治疗手段应用于早期可切除NSCLC患者的新辅助治疗。本文针对新辅助靶向及免疫治疗对早期可切除NSCLC患者的疗效、治疗中的潜在风险予以综述,并探讨新辅助治疗的未来发展方向。     

Same-Day Yttrium-90 Radioembolization: Feasibility with Resin Microspheres

Purpose

To evaluate the feasibility of a same-day yttrium-90 (⁹⁰Y) radioembolization protocol with resin microspheres (including pretreatment angiography, lung shunt fraction [LSF] determination, and radioembolization) for the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and liver metastases.

Contextualizing the lived experience of quality of life for persons with spinal cord injury: A mixed-methods application of the response shift model

Objective: The objective of this study was to gain greater insight into individuals’ quality of life (QOL) definitions, appraisals, and adaptations following spinal cord injury (SCI).

Design: A mixed-methods design, applying the Schwartz and Sprangers response shift (RS) model. RS is a cognitive process wherein, in response to a change in health status, individuals change internal standards, values, or conceptualization of QOL

Setting: Community-dwelling participants who receive medical treatment at a major Midwestern medical system and nearby Veterans’ Affairs hospital.

Participants: A purposive sample of participants with SCI (N?=?40) completed semi-structured interviews and accompanying quantitative measures.

Interventions: Not applicable.

Outcome Measures: Qualitative data were analyzed using content analysis to identify themes. Analysis of variance were performed to detect differences based on themes and QOL, well-being, and demographic and injury characteristics.

Results: Four RS themes were identified, capturing the range of participant perceptions of QOL. The themes ranged from complete RS, indicating active engagement in maintaining QOL, to awareness and comparisons redefining QOL, to a relative lack of RS. Average QOL ratings differed as a function of response shift themes. PROMIS Global Health, Anxiety, and Depression also differed as a function of RS themes.

Conclusion: The RS model contextualizes differences in QOL definitions, appraisals, and adaptations in a way standardized QOL measures alone do not.     

The marks of gunshot wounds to the face

IntroductionThis article deals with the occurrence of health problems due to gunshot wounds to the face among military police officers, in the metropolitan region of Rio de Janeiro, who were submitted to surgery at the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology Clinic of Hospital Central da Polícia Militar.ObjectiveTo identify the profile of patients submitted to surgery as a result of gunshot wounds, the anatomical distribution of maxillofacial fractures, the identified sequelae and complications, the health specialties involved in the rehabilitation of these patients, and to discuss the social, emotional and work performance-related effects of work among these subjects.MethodsA retrospective epidemiological study was carried out based on secondary data from military police officers who were submitted to surgery at Hospital Central da Polícia Militar due to gunshot wounds from June 2003 to December 2017.ResultsDuring the study period, 778 surgeries were performed in the operating room by the Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Traumatology service at Hospital Central da Polícia Militar, 186 of which were due to gunshot wounds (23.9%). All patients were males and the mean age 34.7 years. Bone segment loss was the most common sequela. Facial esthetic impairment and reports of insomnia were the most often identified late consequences of impact on health and social life. Regarding the occupational impacts of the sustained injury, the mean time away from work due to medical leave for the treatment of maxillofacial injuries was 11.7 months.ConclusionThe treatment of gunshot wounds patients with facial injuries requires multiple surgical interventions and their rehabilitation requires the involvement of different health specialties. Further studies are needed to qualitatively analyze the impact of this type of facial trauma on the patients' lives and their social consequences.     

a-1, 2岩藻糖基转移酶II在肺鳞癌组织中的表达及对肺鳞癌细胞增殖的影响

目的：探讨a-1，2岩藻糖基转移酶II（FUT2）在肺鳞癌中的表达情况及其对肺鳞癌细胞增殖的影响。方法：应用UALCAN数据库分析FUT2在临床肺鳞癌患者组织中的差异表达及其与肺鳞癌患者临床TNM分期、年龄及性别因素的相关性；采用瞬时转染技术，将FUT2的shRNA质粒转染进H226细胞株中构建FUT2低表达的肺鳞癌细胞模型；利用CCK-8、平板克隆及Western blot实验检测FUT2对肺鳞癌细胞的生长、单克隆细胞团形成及PCNA蛋白表达的影响。结果：FUT2在肺鳞癌尤其是肺鳞癌TNM早中期呈现高表达趋势（P＜0.05），而与年龄和性别无关。低表达FUT2可以抑制肺鳞癌细胞的生长速率和单克隆细胞团的形成数，同时，可以抑制肺鳞癌细胞PCNA蛋白的表达水平，差异均有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。结论：FUT2在肺鳞癌中高表达且促进肺鳞癌细胞的增殖能力，有望成为肺鳞癌的早期诊断指标。
