脂蛋白相关磷脂酶A2、胰岛素样生长因子-1与老年VD患者认知功能的关系及预测价值研究

目的 探讨脂蛋白相关磷脂酶A2（Lp-PLA2）、胰岛素样生长因子-1（IGF-1）与老年血管性痴呆（VD）患者认知功能的关系及预测价值。方法 选择2019 年3～6 月在我院接受治疗的VD 患者60 例为研究对象，同时选取同期在我院接受检查的健康者60 例为对照组，比较两组患者的Lp-PLA2、IGF-1、简易智力状态检查量表评分（MMSE）水平；采用Pearson 相关性分析法对Lp-PLA2、IGF-1 与MMSE 评分的相关性进行分析；采用受试者工作曲线（ROC）下面积（AUC）比较Lp-PLA2、IGF-1 对VD 的预测价值。结果 观察组患者的Lp-PLA2 水平明显高于对照组（P＜0.05），观察组患者的IGF-1、MMSE 评分明显低于对照组（P＜0.05）；Lp-PLA2 与MMSE 评分呈负相关性，IGF-1 与MMSE 评分呈正相关性；Lp-PLA2 与IGF-1 诊断VD 的AUC 值分别为0.940、0.954。结论Lp-PLA2 水平越低，IGF-1 水平越高，患者的认知功能越好，且Lp-PLA2、IGF-1 对老年VD 患者均具有较高的预测价值。     

奥沙利铂通过调控miRNA-7-5p/RAF-1促进胃癌SGC-7901细胞凋亡的研究

目的探讨奥沙利铂如何调控MAPK通路,抑制胃癌细胞的增殖。方法NCBI检索文献,利用TargetScan、StarBase和miRBase数据库,进行GO分析与KEGG通路富集,找到相关miRNAs,预测靶基因。应用Real-time PCR、MTT、Hoechst33258、流式细胞术、细胞划痕实验、Western blot等方法分析人胃癌SGC-7901细胞的增殖、细胞周期、侵袭及蛋白表达情况。结果胃癌细胞中miR-7-5p显著低表达,RAF1与miR-7-5p存在互靶关系。miR-7-5p mimics与奥沙利铂均可促进SGC-7901细胞的凋亡,提高G1期细胞百分率(P<0.05),降低侵袭、迁移速度。caspase3、caspase9蛋白表达升高,Bcl-2/Bax比值降低(P<0.05)。结论过表达miR-7-5p与奥沙利铂均可促进胃癌SGC-7901细胞的凋亡,提示奥沙利铂可能通过上调miRNA-7-5p促进SGC-7901细胞的凋亡,降低侵袭、迁移速度。     

Endoplasmic reticulum stress is involved in ventilator-induced lung injury in mice via the IRE1α-TRAF2-NF-κB pathway

Inflammation plays a critical role in the development of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is associated with a variety of diseases through the modulation of inflammatory responses. However, little is known about how ER stress is implicated in VILI. In this study, murine mechanical ventilation models were constructed. Total protein and inflammatory cytokines were measured in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and lung tissue injury was assessed by histology. Our data revealed that mice subjected to high tidal ventilation (TV) for 4 h showed more severe pulmonary edema and inflammation than those of mice with spontaneous breathing and low TV-treatment. In addition, the high TV-treated animals upregulated the ER stress markers GRP78, CHOP, p-IRE1α, TRAF2, and p-NF-κB expression at both the mRNA and protein levels in lung tissue. Administration of thapsigargin exacerbated the histological changes, inflammation and expression of GRP78 and CHOP after high TV, but treatment with ER stress and IRE1α kinase inhibitors attenuated the pathological damage and downregulated the high expression of GRP78, CHOP, p-IRE1α, TRAF2, and p-NF-κB, suggesting that ER stress is involved in VILI though the IRE1α/TRAF2/NF-κB signaling pathway in mice.     

Quality of life after single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy: A randomized,clinical trial

Background

Controversy continues as to whether single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy, with the somewhat larger incision at the umbilicus, may lead to a worse postoperative quality of life and more pain compared with the more classic 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The aim of this study was to compare single-incision and 4-port laparoscopic cholecystectomy from the perspective of quality of life.

附加钢板技术治疗股骨干髓内钉术后骨不连的现状和研究进展

目的对附加钢板技术治疗股骨干髓内钉术后骨不连的历史、现状和进展进行综述。方法广泛查阅国内外关于附加钢板技术治疗股骨干髓内钉术后骨不连的临床研究文献，并进行综合分析。结果自 1997 年附加钢板技术已成功用于治疗股骨干髓内钉术后骨不连，根据原髓内钉是否失效，可分为保留原髓内钉和更换原髓内钉两类。该技术不仅适用于简单骨不连，还可用于合并严重畸形的复杂性骨不连。相比更换髓内钉、更换外侧钢板和双钢板技术，附加钢板技术手术创伤更小，骨折愈合时间更短，骨折愈合率更高，患者能更早重返社会和工作。然而，该技术也存在一些问题有待解决，包括双皮质螺钉固定困难、缺乏适合股骨干解剖型附加钢板以及缺乏术后功能和生活质量的评估研究。结论相比其他翻修固定方式，附加钢板技术能够获得更高的骨折愈合率和更好的临床预后。然而，术后患者能否在功能和生活质量方面进一步获益还有待证实。此外，还需要更高质量的临床对照研究深入证明其是否确实优于其他翻修固定方式。     

Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) level and MMP9 -1562C>T in patients with obstructive sleep apnea: a systematic review and meta-analysis of case-control studies

BackgroundThe peripheral level of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 and polymorphism of MMP9 -1562C>T in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) remains controversial. Therefore, the aims of this systemic review and meta-analysis are to assess the MMP9 level in OSA patients and identify the relationship between MMP9 -1562C>T and OSA susceptibility.MethodsThis systematic review was performed following the PRISMA guideline. We searched for studies in major databases, identifying those indexed from inception to July 3, 2019 which related to MMP9 level, MMP9 -1562C>T and OSA. The pooled standardized mean differences (SMDs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of MMP9 levels were calculated. In addition, the relationship between MMP9 -1562C>T and OSA susceptibility was assessed by three genetic models. The heterogeneity analysis and calculation of the pooled odds ratio (OR) were also performed, followed by quality assessment using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS).ResultsIn sum, our review included 15 eligible studies regarding MMP9 level and three regarding MMP9 -1562C>T. The pooled results showed that peripheral level of MMP9 was increased in OSA patients (SMD = 1.37; 95% CI = 1.15–1.59). Furthermore, significant difference of MMP9 level can be found between severe and mild-to-moderate OSA patients (SMD = 28.17; 95% CI = 4.23–52.11) or between moderate-severe and mild OSA (SMD = 36.62; 95% CI = 12.19–61.04). However, no relationship was observed between MMP9 -1562C>T and OSA susceptibility in three genetic models (Homozygote model, OR = 1.37; 95% CI = 0.87–2.18); (Recessive model, OR = 1.42; 95% CI = 0.83–2.42); (Allele model, OR = 1.07; 95% CI = 0.96–1.18).ConclusionsThis systemic review and meta-analysis indicated that the level of MMP9 was increased in patients with OSA and this increase is relevant to OSA severity. Moreover, the relationship between MMP9 -1562 C>T and OSA susceptibility has currently not been proven by current merging values. Further analyses with larger sample size are required to verify these associations.
