the cuneus and lingual gyrus may affect the development of the disease. The ACC regulates different states of migraine by inducing anti-injury sensation regulation function. Proteasome assay The paracentric lobule is not only associated with migraine attacks, but also with the frequency. This may have an effect on the outcome of subsequent migraines, as well as whether the condition becomes chronic, and the remodeling of the brain.
This study sought to compare the surgical results of patients undergoing a laparoendoscopic single-site myomectomy (LESS-M) and a conventional laparoscopic myomectomy (CLM) at our hospital.

The basic data of 233 patients undergoing LESS-M and 233 patients undergoing CLM at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University were collected from January 2018 to January 2020, and the results of the operations were compared by evaluating a number of factors, including operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative fever, and postoperative maximum body temperature.

The operation times of the LESS-M and CLM groups were 83.9±33.4 and 75.2±26.7 min, respectively; the difference between the groups was statistically significant. The surgical blood loss of the LESS-M group was 86.1±76.9 mL, and that of the CLM group was 83.8±79.9 mL (P>0.05). When the diameter of a fibroid was ≥8 cm, a fibroid was located in the posterior wall or the number of fibroids was ≥4, the operation time of the CLM group was shorter than that of the LESS-M group. When the diameter of a fibroid was ≥8 cm, the blood loss of the CLM group was less than that of the LESS-M group.

LESS-M is safe and feasible. If the diameter of a fibroid is ≥8 cm, the fibroid is located in the posterior wall, or the number of fibroids is ≥4, the utility of single-port surgery should be carefully considered.

To explore the source, the role and the specific mechanism of IL-35 and its downstream molecules in the development of pulmonary hypertension.

8-10 weeks male mice were undergoing hypoxia combined with SU5416 (HySu) to establish a pulmonary hypertension (PH) model. The phenotype of PH mice was measured by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence staining. The levels of two subunits (EBI3 and p35 subunits) in lung tissue were measured by real-time PCR and western blotting. EBI3 monoclonal antibody was administrated as IL-35 neutralization to offset systemic IL-35 expression. Fludarabine, an inhibitor of STAT1 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 1) was used to clarify the role of STAT1 under IL-35 treatment.

After pulmonary hypertension, the expression of IL-35 and its two subunits (EBI3 and p35 subunits) in lung tissue were significantly increased. And the two subunits of IL-35 are highly expressed in Treg cells. Compared with the controlled PH mice, the IL-35 neutralization PH mice showsels and alleviate the progression of pulmonary hypertension by reducing the proliferation of endothelial cells.
Brain glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common primary malignant intracranial tumor. The prognosis of this disease is extremely poor. While the introduction of β-interferon (IFN-β) regimen in the treatment of gliomas has significantly improved the outcome of patients; The mechanism by which IFN-β induces increased TMZ sensitivity has not been described. Therefore, the main objective of the study was to elucidate the molecular mechanisms responsible for the beneficial effect of IFNβ in GBM.

Messenger RNA expression profiles and clinicopathological data were downloaded from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) GBM and GSE83300 dataset from the Gene Expression Omnibus. Univariate Cox regression analysis and lasso Cox regression model established a novel 4-gene IFN-β signature (peroxiredoxin 1, Sec61 subunit beta, X-ray repair cross-complementing 5, and Bcl-2-like protein 2) for GBM prognosis prediction. Further, GBM samples (n=50) and normal brain tissues (n=50) were then used for real-time polymerase chaits, which may help in clinical decision making for individual treatment.
In the present study, we established a novel IFN-β-associated gene signature to predict the overall survival of GBM patients, which may help in clinical decision making for individual treatment.
Emerging evidence suggests that inflammation induced by the inflammasome plays a crucial role in the course of Parkinson's disease (PD). Ulinastatin (UTI) has shown significant anti-inflammatory effects. However, few studies have examined whether UTI protects neurons through its anti-inflammatory effects in PD. The purpose of this study is to determine whether UTI exerts neuroprotection in a PD cell model and to explore the mechanisms.

SH-SY5Y cells and nerve growth factor (NGF)-treated PC12 cells were used to establish MPP
induced PD cell models. Cells were pre-treated with UTI, then cell viabilities were detected using the MTT assay. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was detected using the LDH release assay kit. Inflammatory factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α were detected using ELISA. The expression levels of TH, NLRP3, caspase-1, ASC, IL-1β, and IL-18 were measured using western blotting, and DA release was detected using HPLC. A NLRP3 activator Nigericin was used to verify the effect of NLRP3 in the neuroprotective mechanism of UTI.

We observed decreased cell viability, increased apoptosis, and increased inflammatory factors such as IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α in the MPP
induced PD model. We also found decreased DA secretion and TH expression, as well as increased NLRP3, caspase-1, ASC, IL-1α, and IL-18 expression in the MPP
induced PD model. These changes were significantly attenuated by UTI pre-treatment in a dose dependent manner. NLRP3 activator Nigericin markedly increased LDH release, accelerated apoptosis, increased inflammation levels and decreased DA secretion and TH expression, suggesting that Nigericin eliminated the neuroprotective effect of UTI on MPP
treated cells.

Our data demonstrated that UTI pre-treatment performed a neuroprotective role in the MPP
induced PD cell models by inhibiting the NLRP3 pathway.

Anti-hypertensive drugs are widely used to control blood pressure, yet their effects on haemodynamics, especially in Chinese populations, and the potential for non-invasive methods to monitor these changes, are poorly understood. This study aimed to determine the early and late effects of bisoprolol treatment on blood pressure, cardiac output (CO), stroke volume (SV), heart rate (HR), systematic vascular resistance (SVR), and inotropy measured in Chinese patients with hypertension.

Twelve Chinese subjects (median age 55 years, interquartile range 52-58 years; 33% male) with uncontrolled hypertension were recruited at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Hong Kong and haemodynamic measurements were assessed using a non-invasive Ultrasonic Cardiac Output Monitor (USCOM). Seven hourly measurements were taken before and after bisoprolol 2.5 mg on day 1 (T0 to T6), and in nine patients this was repeated six weeks later (TF0 to TF6). Any BP change of 5 mmHg was considered clinically significant and P<0.05 was conc changes between 6 hours of the first dose and the dose after 6 weeks of bisoprolol treatment are similar. Long-term therapy can effectively reduce blood pressure by reducing SVR.
Detection of genomic rearrangements, like anaplastic lymphoma kinase (
) fusions, is a pivotal requirement in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) for the initiation of a targeted treatment. While tissue testing remains the gold standard, detection of these alterations using liquid biopsies is an unmet need. To enable the detection of
rearrangements from circulating-free RNA (cfRNA) from NSCLC patients, we have evaluated a novel reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) based assay.

Sixty-six patients with advanced stage NSCLC were included in the study. ALK status was determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or FISH on tissue sections. For the detection of
rearrangements from 2ml plasma collected in EDTA or Streck BCT DNA tubes, cfRNA was extracted using a prototype cfRNA sample preparation method and tested by a novel multiplex ALK/RET RT-PCR assay (Roche).

Of the forty-two patients with an
rearrangement, 30 (71%) were included at baseline. In 10 of the baseline patients, an
rearrangement was detected by RT-PCR [baseline sensitivity 33.33% (95% CI 17.29-52.81%)]. All 24 negative ALK IHC/FISH-negative patients were negative using the RT-PCR based assay (specificity =100%).

The prototype Roche ALK/RET RT-PCR assay was able to detect
fusion transcripts in the plasma of NSCLC patients at baseline as well as at disease progression with limited sensitivity but high specificity. Consequently, this assay could potentially be considered to select patients for an ALK-targeting therapy when tissue samples are lacking.

Management of large numbers of reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reactions (RT-PCR) for diagnosis of coronavirus 2019 disease (COVID-19) requires robust infrastructures, located in dedicated premises with a high standard of biosafety procedures, and well-trained personnel. The handling of a "run-of-river sample" to obtain rapid reporting of results is challenging.

We studied the clinical performance of the Idylla™ SARS-CoV-2 Test (index test) on a platform capable of fully automated nucleic acid testing including extraction, amplification, and detection in a single-use cartridge to establish the diagnosis of COVID-19. The study was conducted on a prospective cohort of 112 volunteers with recent symptoms and an unknown SARS-CoV-2 status who came to free screening centers of the Nice metropolitan area. All subjects underwent bilateral nasopharyngeal sampling. One sample was processed using the index test, the other using the standard of care RT-PCR. Samples were treated blind.

Most of the participants (70%) were sampled within 4 days of symptom onset. Forty-five (40.2%) were positive for COVID-19. No clinical symptoms were distinguished between SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR positive and negative subjects except anosmia and dysgeusia. Positive and negative agreement between the index and the standard of care test was 100%.

The Idylla™ SARS-CoV-2 Test is very sensitive, specific, rapid and easy to use in a near-patient RT-PCR approach to distinguish between symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 positive and negative patients in selected settings.
