对2010年1月—2016年7月重庆市中毒救治指定医疗机构收治的2 497例中毒患者进行回顾性分析。结果显示，中毒患者中男性1 230例（49.3%）、女性1 267例（50.7%）；分布最多的3个年龄段依次是41~50岁（18.5%）、≤10岁（16.4%）和21~30岁（13.0%）；死亡16例，病死率0.6%。中毒类型构成排前三位的是细菌（33.8%）、化学品（32.2%）、植物（14.8%）。中毒预后多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示重度中毒患者结局死亡的可能性是轻度患者的1 102倍。提示重庆市应重点关注农村地区41~50岁人群的细菌、化学品、药物中毒，同时应该加强儿童中毒防控工作。     

Assessment of oral ciprofloxacin impaired gut barrier integrity on gut bacteria in mice

Gut bacteria and gut barrier plays important roles in body homeostasis. Ciprofloxacin (CPFX) is widely used to treat bacterial infections. However, whether high dosage of CPFX has side effects on gut barrier integrity is still unclear. Our results indicated that the High CPFX treatment (1 mg/ml) caused weight loss, nervousness, anorexia, and increased apoptosis cells in gut, but less influence was observed in the Low CPFX group (0.2 mg/ml). Meanwhile, the High CPFX treatment impaired tight junction molecules Ocln/ZO-1 level and down-regulated antibacterial genes expression (reg3γ, pla2g2α and defb1). Further, the High CPFX treatment increased pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β in intestinal tract, decreased IL-17A of duodenum but increased IL-17A of colon at day 37. In addition, the gut bacterial diversity and richness behaved significantly loss regarding CPFX treatment, especially in the High CPFX group during the experiment. Indole exhibited sharply decline in both Low and High CPFX groups at day 7, and the High CPFX mice needed longer time on restoring indole level. Meanwhile, CPFX treatment strongly decreased the concentrations of butyric acid and valeric acid at day 1. Correlation analysis indicated that the linked patterns between the key bacteria (families Bacteroidales_S247, Ruminococcaceae and Desulfovibrionaceae) and metabolites (indole and butyric acid) were disturbed via the CPFX treatment. In conclusion, the High CPFX treatment impaired the gut barrier with the evidence of reduced expression of tight junction proteins, increased apoptosis cells and inflammatory cells, decreased the bacterial diversity and composition, which suggesting a proper antibiotic-dosage use should be carefully considered in disease treatment.     

骨填充网袋椎体成形术与经皮椎体后凸成形术治疗Kümmell病的疗效比较

目的比较骨填充网袋椎体成形术（Vesselplasty）与经皮椎体后凸成形术（percutaneous kyphoplasty，PKP）治疗 Kümmell 病的临床疗效。方法2015 年 1 月—2018 年 12 月收治 63 例 Kümmell 病患者，其中 28 例采用 Vesselplasty 治疗（Vesselplasty 组），35 例采用 PKP 治疗（PKP 组）。两组患者性别、年龄、病程、骨密度 T 值、骨折节段及术前疼痛视觉模拟评分（VAS）、Oswestry 功能障碍指数（ODI）、伤椎前缘高度、后凸 Cobb 角等一般资料比较，差异均无统计学意义（P>0.05），具有可比性。记录两组手术时间、术中透视时间、骨水泥注射量、骨水泥渗漏率、骨水泥弥散面积率和随访期间并发症发生情况，以及术前、术后 1 d、末次随访时 VAS 评分、ODI、伤椎前缘高度、后凸 Cobb 角。 结果两组患者均获随访，随访时间 12～36 个月，平均 24.2 个月。Vesselplasty 组手术时间、术中透视时间、骨水泥注射量、骨水泥弥散面积率均明显小于 PKP 组（P<0.05）。Vesselplasty 组骨水泥渗漏率（7.14%）明显低于 PKP 组（34.29%）（χ²=5.153，P=0.023）。两组患者术后 1 d 及末次随访时 VAS 评分、ODI、伤椎前缘高度、后凸 Cobb 角均较术前显著改善（P<0.05），术后两组间比较差异均无统计学意义（P>0.05）。随访期间两组均未见术椎再塌陷，Vesselplasty 组邻椎骨折发生率（7.14%）与 PKP 组（14.29%）比较，差异无统计学意义（χ²=0.243，P=0.622）。 结论Vesselplasty 和 PKP 治疗 Kümmell 病疗效相似，均能有效缓解患者疼痛症状，改善生活质量，部分恢复伤椎高度，矫正椎体后凸。但前者具有手术时间短、术中透视时间少、骨水泥渗漏少等优势。     

Molecular simplification of lipid A structure: TLR4-modulating cationic and anionic amphiphiles

A growing body of data suggests that therapies based on Toll-like receptors (TLR) targeting, in particular TLR4, holds promise in curing autoimmune and inflammatory pathologies still lacking specific treatment, included several rare diseases. While TLR4 activators (agonists) have already found successful clinical application as vaccine adjuvants, the use of TLR4 blockers (antagonists) as antisepsis agents or as agents against inflammatory diseases (including arthritis, multiple sclerosis, neuroinflammations) and cancer is still at a preclinical phase of development. This minireview focuses on recent achievements on the development of TLR4 modulators based on lipid A structure simplification, in particular on compounds having disaccharide or monosaccharide structures. As the TLR4 activity of natural TLR4 ligands (lipopolysaccharide, LPS and its biologically active part, the lipid A) depends on both the structure of endotoxin aggregates in solution and on single-molecule interaction with MD-2 and CD14 receptors, the rational design of TLR4 modulators should in principle take into account both these factors. In the light of the most recent advances in the field, in this minireview we discuss the structure–activity relationship in simplified lipid A analogs, with cationic or anionic amphiphilic structures.

Secretion,blood levels and cutaneous expression of TL1A in psoriasis patients

TL1A is a TNF‐like cytokine which has been shown to co‐stimulate TH1 and TH17 responses during chronic inflammation. The expression of this novel cytokine has been investigated in inflammatory disorders like rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease, but little is known about expression and induction in psoriasis. Indeed, the pathogenesis in psoriasis is still not fully understood and it is speculated that cytokines other than TNF‐α are important in subsets of patients. Also, for patients with severe disease that are treated with systemic anti‐TNF‐α blockade, novel candidates to be used as disease and response biomarkers are of high interest. Here, we demonstrate TL1A expression in biopsies from psoriatic lesions. Also, we investigated spontaneous and induced TL1A secretion from PBMCs and blood levels from a cohort of psoriasis patients. Here, increased spontaneous secretion from PBMCs was observed as compared to healthy controls and a small subset of patients had highly elevated TL1A in the blood. Interestingly, activation of PBMCs with various cytokines showed a decreased sensitivity for TL1A activation in psoriasis patients compared to healthy controls.TL1A levels in blood and biopsies could not be correlated with disease activity with this patient cohort. Thus, additional large‐scale studies are warranted to investigate TL1A as a biomarker.     

Proteases and their inhibitors as prognostic factors for high-grade serous ovarian cancer

Ovarian carcinoma is one of the most lethal malignancies, but only very few prognostic biomarkers are known. The degradome, comprising proteases, protease non-proteolytic homologues and inhibitors, have been involved in the prognosis of many cancer types, including ovarian carcinoma. The prognostic significance of the whole degradome family has not been specifically studied in high-grade serous ovarian cancer. A targeted DNA microarray known as the CLIP-CHIP microarray was used to identify potential prognostic factors in ten high-grade serous ovarian cancer women who had early recurrence (<1.6 years) or late/no recurrence after first line surgery and chemotherapy. In women with early recurrence, we identified seven upregulated genes (TMPRSS4, MASP1/3, SPC18, PSMB1, IGFBP2, CFI – encoding Complement Factor I – and MMP9) and one down-regulated gene (ADAM-10). Using immunohistochemistry, we evaluated the prognostic effect of these 8 candidate genes in an independent cohort of 112 high-grade serous ovarian cancer women. Outcomes were progression, defined according to CA-125 criteria, and death. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were done to estimate the associations between each protein and each outcome. High ADAM-10 expression (intensity of 2–3) was associated with a lower risk of progression (adjusted hazard ratio (HR): 0.51; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.29-0.87). High complement factor I expression (intensity 2–3) was associated with a higher risk of progression (adjusted HR: 2.30, 95% CI: 1.17–4.53) and death (adjusted HR: 3.42; 95% CI: 1.72–6.79). Overall, we identified the prognostic value of two proteases, ADAM-10 and complement factor I, for high-grade serous ovarian cancer which could have clinical significance.     

Moving Knowledge to Action: Aware,Adopt, Adapt (A3)

This article begins with an overview of the knowledge translation (KT) process, introduces commonly used KT terms and the Aware-Adopt-Adapt (A³) KT map. The A³ was created by a nurse practitioner (NP) for practitioners and NP students to provide a map for those who wish to move existing knowledge to practice, yet do not know where to start or do not have the time to take a deeper dive into specific KT theories.
