【Objective】 To investigate the relationship between the expression of mismatch repair protein and Ki67 protein and progression free survival (PFS) after resection of colorectal cancer (CRC) in the elderly. 【Methods】 From October 2016 to October 2021, 96 elderly patients with CRC who underwent radical resection of colorectal cancer in Hanzhong Central Hospital were selected, and colorectal cancer tissue specimens and adjacent tissues were collected. The expression of mismatch repair protein and Ki67 protein in cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were compared.The expression of mismatch repair protein and Ki67 protein in colorectal cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were compared. The correlation between the expression of mismatch repair protein and Ki67 protein in cancer tissues and their clinicopathological characteristics was analyzed. Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the related factors affecting the prognosis of elderly CRC patients, and to analyze the correlation between the expression of mismatch repair protein and Ki67 protein and PFS in elderly CRC patients after radical surgery. 【Results】 The negative expression rate of mismatch repair protein and the positive expression rate of Ki67 protein in colorectal cancer tissues were higher than those in adjacent tissues (P<0.05). The negative expression rate of mismatch repair protein and the positive expression rate of Ki67 protein in the cancer tissues of elderly CRC patients with different tumor diameter, clinical stage, lymph node metastasis, degree of differentiation and depth of invasion were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Ninety six elderly patients with CRC were followed up for 3 years, 3 patients were lost, and 21 of the remaining 93 patients (22.58%) died. Cox regression analysis showed that tumor diameter, clinical stage, lymph node metastasis, degree of differentiation, negative expression of mismatch repair protein and positive expression of Ki67 protein were independent factors affecting the prognosis of elderly CRC patients (P<0.05). The survival curve of patients with positive expression of mismatch repair protein was significantly different from that of patients with negative expression (P<0.05). The survival curve of patients with negative Ki67 protein expression was significantly different from that of patients with positive Ki67 protein expression (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The expression rate of mismatch repair protein (MRP) is negative and Ki67 protein is positive in elderly CRC patients. The expressions of MRP and Ki67 protein are correlated with the clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of the patients.

【Objective】 To explore the diagnostic value of MRI diffusion weighted imaging (MRI-DWI) and dynamic enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) sequences for focal nodular lesions under the background of fatty liver. 【Methods】 A total of 118 patients with fatty liver complicated with focal nodular lesions who were admitted to our hospital from April 2019 to October 2021 were selected as the research objects. All patients underwent MRI-DWI and DCE-MRI examinations. The pathological diagnosis was considered as the gold standard for diagnosis. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of patients with different focal nodular lesions were analyzed. The DCE-MRI scan parameters of patients with different focal nodular lesions were compared. The time-signal curve types of patients with different focal nodular lesions were analyzed as well. The diagnostic efficiency and consistency of MRI-DWI and DCE-MRI were analyzed. 【Results】 There were 51 cases of malignant nodules and 67 cases of benign nodules in 118 patients. The ADC scores of different b values in the malignant nodule group were lower than those in the benign nodule group (P<0.05). The peak value (PV), maximum ascending slope (MSI), and maximum descending slope (MSD) of the malignant nodule group were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05), while the Kep, Ktrans and Ve values of the malignant nodule group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05). When types of the time-signal curve were compared between the malignant nodule group and the benign nodule group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The sensitivities of MRI-DWI, DCE-MRI and their combination measurement for diagnosis of focal nodular lesions in the context of fatty liver were 94.12%, 96.08% and 94.12%, respectively; While the specificities of them were 91.04%, 89.55%, and 100.00%, respectively. The consistent Kappa values of pathological diagnosis with MRI-DWI, DCE-MRI or MRI-DWI+MRI diagnosis of focal nodular lesions in patients with fatty liver were 0.808, 0.815, 0.824, respectively. 【Conclusion】 The parameters of MRI-DWI and DCE-MRI in patients with focal nodular lesions under the background of fatty liver are related to the nature of the lesions. MRI combined with DWI and DCE sequences can improve the diagnostic efficiency of focal nodular lesions in the background of fatty liver.

【Objective】 To investigate the expression of protease activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) and protease activated receptor-2 (PAR-2) in Hirschsprung's disease (HSCR) and their relationship with prognosis. 【Methods】 A total of 100 children with HSCR who received radical surgery in our hospital from January 2014 to January 2019 were selected, and tissue samples of HSCR lesions (spastic segments) and normal intestinal mucosa adjacent to the lesions (more than 2 cm from the lesions) were taken. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of PAR-1 and PAR-2 in HSCR pathological tissue samples and normal intestinal mucosa tissues. Fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of PAR-1 mRNA and PAR-2 mRNA. Pearson's method was used to analyze the horizontal correlation between PAR-1, PAR-2, Krickenbeck scores, serum IL-6 and TNF-α. Logistic multivariate analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of poor prognosis in children with HSCR. 【Results】 The positive expression rates of PAR-1 and PAR-2 in the pathological tissues were higher than those in the adjacent tissues (P<0.05). Compared with the adjacent tissues, the expression levels of PAR-1 mRNA, PAR-2 mRNA and PAR-1, PAR-2 protein in the diseased tissues were significantly higher (P<0.05); The level of PAR-1, PAR-2 and serum IL-6, TNF-α in children in the poor prognosis group was significantly higher than that of the good prognosis group and the better prognosis group (P<0.05). The good prognosis group was higher than the better prognosis group (P<0.05). Pearson's results showed that PAR-1, PAR-2 were negatively correlated with Krickenbeck's score (P<0.05), and were positively correlated with IL-6 and TNF-α (mean P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that PAR-1 and PAR-2 were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of children with HSCR (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 PAR-1 and PAR-2 are highly expressed in HSCR tissues and negatively correlated with Krickenbeck score, which are risk factors for poor prognosis of children with HSCR.

DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1671-7171.2023.01.029
【Objective】 To investigate the risk factors of hydrocephalus in neonates with purulent meningitis. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 173 neonates with purulent meningitis admitted to our hospital from February 2019 to April 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. They were divided into hydrocephalus group (n=55) and non hydrocephalus group (n=118) according to whether hydrocephalus occurred. The demographic data, clinical data, laboratory test results and intracranial magnetic resonance examination results of the children were collected. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the occurrence of hydrocephalus, and the predictive value of hydrocephalus was evaluated by drawing a risk model ROC curve. 【Results】 Hydrocephalus occurred in 55 of 173 children with meningitis (31.79%). The clinical symptoms of children in hydrocephalus group were respiratory failure and convulsion, and the count of white blood cells in cerebrospinal fluid was>20×106/L, CSF glucose <2.2 mmol/L, CSF protein > 1.5 g/L. The proportion of cerebrospinal fluid culture positive and imaging examination showed that leukomalacia, small white matter lesions, intraventricular hemorrhage, and purulent brain abscess were significantly higher than those of children without hydrocephalus (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that CSF glucose<2.2 mmol/L and CSF white blood cell count>20×106/L, CSF protein >1.5 g/L. Positive cerebrospinal fluid culture and intracranial magnetic resonance imaging showed small lesions in white matter, intraventricular hemorrhage, and purulent brain abscess were risk factors for hydrocephalus in children with purulent meningitis (P<0.05). The above risk factors were used to establish a prediction model by stepwise regression method. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of the prediction model was 0.881, with high prediction value. 【Conclusion】 The risk model of neonatal purulent meningitis established by clinical symptoms, laboratory tests and intracranial MRI findings has a good predictive value for hydrocephalus.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects of sarilumab on the proliferation and apoptosis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) cells, and to analyze the related mechanisms. 【Methods】 Human RA cell line FLS cells (RA-FLS cells) were cultured in vitro and divided into the control group, the sarilumab low, medium and high dose groups (final concentration of 2.5 mg/L, 5.0 mg/L and 10.0 mg/L, respectively). The proliferation inhibition rate of RA-FLS cells was detected by CKK-8 and the apoptosis rate of RA-FLS cells was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining. The expression of anti-proliferation related nuclear Antigen (PCNA) , apoptosis protein B lymphocyte-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 related X protein (Bax) and protein tyrosine kinase of Janus kinase 1/STAT3 pathway protein (JAK1, p-JAK1, STAT3 and p-STAT1) was detected by Western blotting. 【Results】 The proliferation inhibition rate, apoptosis rate and expression levels of PCNA and Bcl-2 protein in RA-FLS cells from the sarilumab low, middle and high dose groups were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05), while the levels of Bax and p-JAK1/JAK1, p-STAT3/STAT3 were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). All of those dectections were in dose dependent manner (P<0.05).【Conclusion】 Sarilumab may inhibit the proliferation of RA-FLS cells and induce apoptosis by inhibiting the activation of IL-6/JAK1/STAT3 pathway.

【Objective】 To study the effect of Fuzheng Huayu Capsule and bifidobacterium triple viable bacteria combined with tenofovir on liver fibrosis and platelets in elderly patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis (HBC). 【Methods】 A total of 93 elderly HBC patients admitted to our hospital from April 2019 to April 2021 were selected as the research objects. Patients were divided into the Fuzheng Huayu group (31 cases), the viable bacteria group (31 cases) and The combined group (31 cases) by random number table method. The three groups were all given tenofovir. In addition, the Fuzheng Huayu group was given Fuzheng Huayu Capsules, the viable bacteria group was given bifidotriple viable bacteria, and the combination group was given Fuzheng Huayu Capsule + Bifidobacterium triple viable bacteria. The HBV DNA quantification (HBV-DNA), HBV-DNA negative convert rate, liver function indexes [alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin (TBIL), aspartate aminotransferase (AST)], liver fibrosis indicators [type Ⅲ procollagen (PC-Ⅲ), hyaluronic acid (HA), laminin (LN), type Ⅳ collagen (Ⅳ-C)] and serum inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8)] were compared among the three groups. 【Results】 After treatment, the levels of HBV-DNA in the three groups were lower than those before treatment. The HBV-DNA level in the combination group was lower than that in the bifidotriple viable bacteria group and the Fuzheng Huayu group. While the Fuzheng Huayu group was lower than the live bacteria group. The difference were statistically significant (P<0.05).The negative rate of HBV-DNA in the combined group (93.55%) was higher than that in the viable bacteria group (70.97%) and the Fuzheng Huayu group (64.52%) (P<0.05). After treatment, the three groups of HBV-DNA, TBIL, AST, ALT , Ⅳ-C, PC-Ⅲ, LN, HA, IL-8, TNF-α, hs-CRP, IL-6 levels were lower than those before treatment; And the combined group was lower than the viable bacteria group and the Fuzheng Huayu group (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Fuzheng Huayu Capsules and bifidobacterium triple viable bacteria combined with tenofovir have significant effects in the treatment of elderly HBC, which can improve liver function, inhibit liver fibrosis, improve blood coagulation function, and inhibit inflammatory symptoms of the body.
