简介：AbstractPurpose:This study aimed at exploring the application of trauma time axis management in the treatment of severe trauma patients by using the Medicalsystem trauma system.Methods:We performed a retrospective cohort study involving patients with severe trauma. Patients who were admitted before the application of the Medicalsystem trauma system were divided into before system group; patients who were admitted after the application of the system were divided into after system group. Comparison was made between the two groups. For normally distributed data, means were reported along with standard deviation, and comparisons were made using the independent samples t test. Categorical data were compared using the Chi-square test. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare nonparametric variables.Results:There were 528 patients admitted to the study during the study period. There was no significant statistical difference in the time from the start of trauma team to arrive at the resuscitation room between the two groups. The time from arrival at hospital to endotracheal intubation, to ventilator therapy, to blood transfusion, to completion of CT scan, to completion of closed thoracic drainage, to the start of operation, as well as the length of stay in resuscitation room and hospital were significantly lower after the application of the Medicalsystem trauma system. The mortality was decreased by 8.6% in the after system group compared with that in the before system group, but there was no statistical difference.Conclusion:The Medicalsystem trauma system can optimize diagnosis and treatment process for trauma patients, and accordingly improve the treatment efficiency and shorten the treatment time. Therefore, the Medicalsystem trauma system deserves further popularization and promotion.

简介：AbstractObjective:The maternal-fetal interface undergoes dynamic changes to allow the fetus to grow and develop in the uterus. The interaction between decidual γδ T cells and trophoblasts plays a pivotal role during successful pregnancy; however, their physiological functions in early-term human pregnancy are still not completely illustrated. This study was undertaken to illustrate the functional roles of CXCL16/CXCR6 to prevent pregnancy loss via the crosstalk between decidual γδ T cells and HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells.Methods:The percentile of CXCR6+ γδ T cells in the peripheral blood from normal female and recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) patients was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression of CXCR6 was detected in decidual immune cells via flow cytometry, and the expression of CXCL16 was analyzed in HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells and lentivirus (LV)-HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction was used to verify the expression of the CXCL16 gene in LV-HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells. Expression of granzyme B and cytokines and proliferation of decidual γδ T cocultured with HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Invasion of HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells was assessed via Matrigel transwell assay. Adoptive transfer was induced in vivo further to illustrate that the normal expression of CXCL16/CXCR6 could prevent pregnancy loss.Results:The percentile of CXCR6+ γδ T cells in the peripheral blood from RSA patients was lower than normal pregnancies. The expression of CXCR6 was highest in the decidual γδ T cells among decidual immune cells, and the expression of CXCL16 increased as the amount of HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells increased. Expression of granzyme B in the decidual γδ T cells was downregulated by cocultured with HTR8/SVneo cells dependent of CXCL16, and HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells induced the Th2 cytokines production in the decidual γδ T cells. Both the expression of CXCR6 in the decidual γδ T cells and proliferation of the decidual γδ T cells were promoted by HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells. On the other hand, decidual γδ T cells enhanced the invasion of HTR8/SVneo trophoblast cells and thus promoted embryo implantation. In vivo study was taken further and shown that low expression of CXCL16/CXCR6 results in pregnancy loss because of dialog disorder between decidual γδ T cells and trophoblasts.Conclusions:Low expression of CXCL16/CXCR6 results in pregnancy loss because of the dialog disorder between decidual γδ T cells and trophoblasts, and it showed a light on the effective strategy of adoptive transfer of CXCR6+ γδ T cells on the treatment of RSA. This observation provides a scientific basis on which a potential strategy can be applied to the early-detect and treatment of RSA.

简介：AbstractBackground:Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) actin filament-associated protein 1 antisense RNA 1 (AFAP1-AS1) functions as a competing endogenous RNA to regulate target genes expression by sponging microRNAs (miRs) to play cancer-promoting roles in cancer stem cells. However, the regulatory mechanism of AFAP1-AS1 in cervical cancer (CC) stem cells is unknown. The present study aimed to provide a new therapeutic target for the clinical treatment of CC.Methods:Hyaluronic acid receptor cluster of differentiation 44 variant exon 6 (CD44v6)(+) CC cells were isolated by flow cytometry (FCM). Small interfering RNAs of AFAP1-AS1 (siAFAP1-AS1) were transfected into the (CD44v6)(+) cells. The levels of AFAP1-AS1 were measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Sphere formation assay, cell cycle analysis, and Western blotting were used to detect the effect of siAFAP1-AS1. RNA pull-down and luciferase reporter assay were used to verify the relationship between miR-27b-3p and AFAP1-AS1 or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C.Results:CD44v6(+) CC cells had remarkable stemness and a high level of AFAP1-AS1. However, AFAP1-AS1 knockdown with siAFAP1-AS1 suppressed the cell cycle transition of G(1)/S phase and inhibited self-renewal of CD44v6(+) CC cells, the levels of the stemness markers octamer-binding transcription factor 4 (OCT4), osteopontin (OPN), and cluster of differentiation 133 (CD133), and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related proteins Twist1, matrix metalloprotease (MMP)-9, and VEGF-C. In the mechanism study, miR-27b-3p/VEGF-C signaling was demonstrated to be a key downstream of AFAP1-AS1 in the CD44v6(+) CC cells.Conclusions:LncRNA AFAP1-AS1 knockdown inhibits the CC cell stemness by upregulating miR-27b-3p to suppress VEGF-C.
