    Abstract: We assessed whether the admission fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels were associated with all-cause mortality and left ventricular (LV) function in older patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). A total of 1854 consecutive patients were categorized into 4 groups: hypoglycemia, euglycemia, mild hyperglycemia, and severe hyperglycemia. The primary outcomes were in-hospital/3-year mortality and LV function. There was a near-linear relationship between FPG and Killip class. However, no significant correlation was found between FPG levels and LV ejection fraction. Both FPG levels and Killip classes were all independent significant predictors of mortality. Compared with the euglycemia group, both the hypo- and hyperglycemia groups were associated with higher in-hospital and 3-year mortality. In older patients with AMI, the FPG values had differential influences on LV function and mortality. There was a U-shaped relationship between FPG and in-hospital/3-year mortality, and a near-linear relationship between increased admission glucose levels and higher Killip classification.

    Abstract: To evaluate the effect of exogenous creatine phosphate (CP) on myocardial injury after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Method: Four hundred patients were divided to receive conventional therapy (control group) or 3-day intravenous infusion of CP after PCI (CP group). Levels of creatine kinase MB (CK-MB) and troponin I (TnI) were measured before and on postprocedural day 3. Results: Postprocedural CK-MB and TnI in the CP group were significantly increased compared to the control group. In the CP group, 8.0% and 5.0% of patients had an increase in CK-MB 1 to 3 times and 〉 3 times, respectively, which were significantly lower than that of the control group (19.0% and 9.0%, respectively); 12.0% and 10.0% of patients had an increase in TnI 1 to 3 times and 〉 3 times, respectively, which were significantly lower than that of the control group (21.0% and 18.0%, respectively). Conclusion: Exogenous CP was helpful to reduce myocardial injury after PCI.

    Abstract: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease characterized by degeneration of articular cartilage and secondary osteogenesis. Cell-based agents, such as mesenchymal stem cells, have turned into the most extensively explored new therapeutic agents for OA. However, evidence-based research is still lacking. Methods We searched public databases up to February 2020 and only included randomized controlled trials. The outcomes included the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC), the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), the visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and serious adverse events (SAEs). A network meta-analysis was also performed in this work. Results We included 13 studies in the meta-analysis. The effect size showed that cell-based therapy did not significantly reduce the WOMAC score at the 6-month follow-up (standard mean difference [SMD] −3.6; 95% confidence interval [CI] −0.90 to 0.18; P = 0.1928). However, cell-based therapy significantly improved the KOOS at the 12-month follow-up (SMD 0.68; 95% CI 0.07-1.30; P = 0.0288) and relieved pain (SMD −1.05; 95% CI −1.46 to −0.64; P 〈 0.0001). The findings also indicated that high-dosage adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) may be more advantageous in terms of long-term effects. Conclusions Cell-based therapy had a better effect on KOOS improvement and pain relief without safety concerns. However, cell-based therapy did not show a benefit in terms of the WOMAC. Allogeneic cells might have advantages compared to controls in the WOMAC and KOOS scores. The long-term effect of high-dose ADMSC treatment for OA is worthy of further study.

    In: Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment, SAGE Publications, Vol. 20 ( 2021-01-01), p. 153303382110279-
    Abstract: The aim of our study was to develop a nomogram model to predict overall survival (OS) and cancer-specific survival (CSS) in patients with gastric signet ring cell carcinoma (GSRC). Methods: GSRC patients from 2004 to 2015 were collected from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database and randomly assigned to the training and validation sets. Multivariate Cox regression analyses screened for OS and CSS independent risk factors and nomograms were constructed. Results: A total of 7,149 eligible GSRC patients were identified, including 4,766 in the training set and 2,383 in the validation set. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that gender, marital status, race, AJCC stage, TNM stage, surgery and chemotherapy were independent risk factors for both OS and CSS. Based on the results of the multivariate Cox regression analysis, prognostic nomograms were constructed for OS and CSS. In the training set, the C-index was 0.754 (95% CI = 0.746-0.762) for the OS nomogram and 0.762 (95% CI: 0.753-0.771) for the CSS nomogram. In the internal validation, the C-index for the OS nomogram was 0.758 (95% CI: 0.746-0.770), while the C-index for the CSS nomogram was 0.762 (95% CI: 0.749-0.775). Compared with TNM stage and SEER stage, the nomogram had better predictive ability. In addition, the calibration curves also showed good consistency between the predicted and actual 3-year and 5-year OS and CSS. Conclusion: The nomogram can effectively predict OS and CSS in patients with GSRC, which may help clinicians to personalize prognostic assessments and clinical decisions.

    Abstract: Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (HoLEP) is one of the minimally invasive procedures that is used for patients with benign prostate hyperplasia. The procedure usually requires patients to stay in the hospital 2 nights or longer. The present study evaluated the safety and feasibility of HoLEP with discharge of the patients on Day 1 after surgery (1-day surgery). A total of 1,164 patients were included in the study, with 510 of them planned for 1-day surgery and others planned for inpatient surgery. The primary outcomes included complication rate and clinical outcomes. A total 489 out of 510 patients received 1-day HoLEP and were discharged on Day 1 after surgery. In a 30-day follow-up period, no significant differences were found between the 1-day and inpatient surgery groups in terms of the rate of complications and clinical outcomes. Patients in the 1-day surgery group had a significantly shorter waiting time for admission (9.5 ± 4.8 vs. 17.6 ± 7.4 days, p 〈 .05), and the mean hospitalization cost was lower (CNY$ 9140.6 ± 1452.2 vs. 10533.4 ± 1594, p 〈 .05).The 1-day HoLEP surgery was safe and had satisfactory clinical outcomes. This treatment strategy could reduce the waiting time for admission and cost of hospitalization. Majority of the patients found this 1-day surgery beneficial, especially elderly patients who prefer to have an early return home and rapid resumption of activities.

    Abstract: To evaluate regional calf muscle microcirculation in people with diabetes mellitus (DM) with and without foot ulcers, compared to healthy control people without DM, using contrast-free magnetic resonance imaging methods. Methods: Three groups of subjects were recruited: non-DM controls, DM, and DM with foot ulcers (DM + ulcer), all with ankle brachial index (ABI)  〉  0.9. Skeletal muscle blood flow (SMBF) and oxygen extraction fraction (SMOEF) in calf muscle were measured at rest and during a 5-min isometric ankle plantarflexion exercise. Subjects completed the Yale physical activity survey. Results: The exercise SMBF (ml/min/100 g) of the medial gastrocnemius muscle were progressively impaired: 63.7 ± 18.9 for controls, 42.9 ± 6.7 for DM, and 36.2 ± 6.2 for DM + ulcer, p  〈  0.001. Corresponding exercise SMOEF was the lowest in DM + ulcers (0.48 ± 0.09). Exercise SMBF in the soleus muscle was correlated moderately with the Yale physical activity survey ( r = 0.39, p  〈  0.01). Conclusions: Contrast-free MR imaging identified progressively impaired regional microcirculation in medial gastrocnemius muscles of people with DM with and without foot ulcers. Exercise SMBF in the medial gastrocnemius muscle was the most sensitive index and was associated with HbA1c. Lower exercise SMBF in the soleus muscle was associated with lower Yale score.

    Abstract: Cloud stability of particles in cloudy apple juice during its storage for 120 days at 4, 22 and 40 ° C is conducted. The juices are added with or without ascorbic acid. The cloud stability of juices during storage is studied by optical microscopy, electron microscopy and size distribution analysis of suspending particles combined with a polyphenols component analysis by high performance liquid chromatography. At the beginning of storage, the turbidity of juice added with or without ascorbic acid decreased quickly because particles of larger size in juices aggregated and deposited, and since there are less larger particles at the upper portion of the bottles, the depositing speed of particles decreases. The loss of total phenolic compounds, epicatechin, chlorogenic acid and tannin increases with the increase of temperature and storage time. The polyphenols degraded quickly during the initial period of storage and then it slowed down. The addition of ascorbic acid to the juice can inhibit the oxidation and polymerisation of phenolic compounds to avoid the formation of new small insoluble particles during the storage, and the efficacy of inhibiting between adding 0.024% or 0.006% (w/w) ascorbic acid is not remarkably different.

    Abstract: Chinese consumers are interested in status consumption, i.e., in striving to enhance their social standings through the consumption of luxury products. This study investigates how face consciousness, one's social self-esteem, and desire to be respected influences status consumption behavior in China. The Consciousness of Social Face Scale, the Social Value Scale, and the Status Consumption Scale were administered to 192 MBA students from a university in east China (117 men, 69 women, 6 unreported sex). The results revealed that face consciousness was positively related to Chinese consumers' status consumption. Moreover, the results showed that the effects of face consciousness on status consumption were partly mediated by consumer social value. The findings highlight the importance of face consciousness in understanding Chinese consumer behaviors.

    Abstract: Pain management for multiple bone metastases is complex and often requires multidisciplinary treatment. We herein describe patient-centered multidisciplinary pain management for metastatic cancer. Case presentation: A 61-year-old woman with multiple bone metastases of uterine cervical cancer developed intractable low back pain. After external beam radiotherapy failed, we performed lumbar spinal intralesional curettage, pedicle screw fixation, and nerve decompression. However, the neuralgia persisted. We then percutaneously injected epirubicin into the intervertebral foramina under computed tomography guidance for L5 dorsal root ganglion destruction. Osteoplasty was performed under C-arm X-ray guidance; however, the sacrum was mistaken for the ilium, and treatment was ineffective. We administered zoledronic acid and strontium-89. The last resort was outpatient implantation of an epidural bupivacaine-morphine infusion system. A visual analog scale (VAS) was used for pain evaluation. Lumbar spinal intralesional curettage and fixation, epirubicin-induced ganglion destruction, and administration of zoledronic acid and strontium-89 decreased her VAS pain score from 7–8 to 3–4. Radiotherapy and nerve decompression and release were ineffective, as was osteoplasty because of the location error. The epidural infusion system decreased the VAS score from 7–8 to 2–3 and was highly efficient. Conclusions Multidisciplinary integrated treatment for metastatic cancer can be effective.
