Systemic immune-inflammation index combined with pediatric appendicitis score in assessing the severity and prognosis for paediatric appendicitis
Authors: Guo Li-Ming , Jiang Zhi-Hui , Liu Hong-Zhen 
Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND
Pediatric appendicitis is a common cause of abdominal pain in children and is recognized as a significant surgical emergency. A prompt and accurate diagnosis is essential to prevent complications such as perforation and peritonitis.
AIM
To investigate the predictive value of the systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) combined with the pediatric appendicitis score (PAS) for the assessment of disease severity and surgical outcomes in children aged 5 years and older with appendicitis.
METHODS
Clinical data of 104 children diagnosed with acute appendicitis were analyzed. The participants were categorized into the acute appendicitis group and chronic appendicitis group based on disease presentation and further stratified into the good prognosis group and poor prognosis group based on prognosis. The SII and PAS were measured, and a joint model using the combined SII and PAS was constructed to predict disease severity and surgical outcomes.
RESULTS
Significant differences were observed in the SII and PAS parameters between the acute appendicitis group and chronic appendicitis group. Correlation analysis showed associations among the SII, PAS, and disease severity, with the combined SII and PAS model demonstrating significant predictive value for assessing disease severity [aera under the curve (AUC) = 0.914] and predicting surgical outcomes (AUC = 0.857) in children aged 5 years and older with appendicitis.
CONCLUSION
The study findings support the potential of integrating the SII with the PAS for assessing disease severity and predicting surgical outcomes in pediatric appendicitis, indicating the clinical utility of the combined SII and PAS model in guiding clinical decision-making and optimizing surgical management strategies for pediatric patients with appendicitis.

Published: August 2024

BACKGROUND
Medical treatment for Crohn’s disease (CD) has continuously improved, which has led to a decrease in surgical recurrence rates. Despite these advancements, 25% of patients will undergo repeat intestinal surgery. Recurrence of CD commonly occurs on the mesentery side of the anastomosis site.
AIM
To compare the new anti-mesenteric side-to-side delta-shaped stapled anastomosis (DSA) with the conventional stapled functional end-to-end anastomosis (CSA).
METHODS
This retrospective study included CD patients who underwent ileo-ileal or ileo-colic anastomosis between January 2020 and December 2023. The DSA technique employed a stapler to maintain the concept of anti-mesentery side-to-side anastomosis by performing a 90° vertical closure of the open window compared with the CSA technique. At the corner where the open window is closed, the DSA avoids forming a pouch and creates an anastomosis resembling a delta shape within the intestinal lumen. We compared demographics, preoperative condition, operative findings, and operative outcomes for the two techniques.
RESULTS
The study included 175 patients, including 92 in the DSA group and 83 in the CSA group. The two groups were similar in baseline characteristics, preoperative medical treatment, and operative findings except for the Montreal classification location. The 30-days postoperative complication rate was significantly lower in the DSA group compared with the CSA group (16.3% vs 32.5%, P = 0.009). Ileus incidence was significantly lower in the DSA group than in the CSA group (4.3% vs 14.5%, P = 0.033), and the hospital stay was shorter in the DSA group than in the CSA group (5.67 ± 1.53 days vs 7.39 ± 3.68 days, P = 0.001).
CONCLUSION
The DSA technique was feasible and showed comparable postoperative outcomes with lower short-term complications compared with the CSA technique. Further studies on CD recurrence and long-term complications are warranted.

Published: August 2024

Objectives:
To identify and describe diet and nutrition knowledge measurement tools/items used among adults with spinal cord injuries and disorders (SCI/D).

Methods:
Conducted a literature search for publications measuring diet/nutrition knowledge using items or tools in persons with SCI/D. Eligible articles were published in 1992-2022, in English, and assessed SCI/D participants’ nutrition knowledge. Articles were reviewed for study design, questionnaire validation, sample characteristics, item content, and whether nutrition knowledge was general or SCI/D-specific.

Results:
Of 48 articles examined, five were included in the review. None of the nutrition knowledge questionnaires were validated in persons with SCI/D. Only one study assessed nutrition knowledge in nonathletes with chronic SCI/D, and this study excluded individuals with tetraplegia. The other studies either solely recruited athletes (n = 2; one included participants with amputation) or individuals with acute SCI/D (n = 2). Common item topics included calories/energy, sources of micronutrients and macronutrients and their effects on the body, and nutrition literacy. One questionnaire included non-SCI/D-specific nutrition items for persons with disabilities. Only one (unvalidated) questionnaire contained SCI-specific nutrition knowledge items, which only assessed whether more energy, fiber, and water are needed following acute SCI/D.

Conclusion:
Studies that assess nutrition knowledge among persons with SCI/D are rare and are typically observational or cross-sectional, with limited information on important SCI/D subgroups. Items relevant to unique needs of persons with SCI/D are sparse. A validated questionnaire that measures knowledge of SCI-specific nutrition, that is relevant to this population, and that can be parceled out by subgroup is needed.

The obligation of Muslims in performing the five dailyprayers has been studied since early childhood. Young children are considered capable of absorbing anything they see and hear and following what their parents do. Researchers aim to further examine the communication strategies used by parents in teaching the five daily prayers to their children. The informants in this study are Faculty of Da'wah and Communication Sciences (FDIK) lecturers at UIN Raden Intan Lampung who have children aged 2-6 years old. This study uses a qualitative method with a case study tradition and data collection techniques using in-depth interviews. The theories in this study are the communication strategy theory by Harold D. Laswell and behaviorism theory by Skinner. The results of this study are in line with Harold D. Laswell's communication strategy theory where the communication model used is interpersonal communication and with the behaviorism theory approach by Skinner where children become accustomed to seeing their parents regularly performing the five daily prayers so that children willingly follow suit. This indicates that Parental Communication Strategies in Teaching the Five Daily Prayers to Children have successfully created effective communication to achieve the main goal of teaching children the five daily prayers.
CircBAZ1B stimulates myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MI/RI) by modulating miR-1252-5p/ATF3-mediated ferroptosis
Authors: Wei Ruili , Yang Tianxiao , Li Weihong , Wang Xiqian 
Published: August 2024

IntroductionCircular RNAs (circRNAs) have been implicated in myocardial ischemia (MI)/reperfusion injury (RI), yet their essential roles in MI/RI-induced ferroptosis have not been fully elucidated. Here, we focused on the biological function and regulatory mechanism of circBAZ1B, a circRNA derived from the bromodomain adjacent to the zinc finger domain 1B (BAZ1B) gene, in MI/RI progression.Material and methodsWe used a rat model for MI/RI, assessing myocardial infarct size via electrocardiogram (ECG) and histological staining (hematoxylin and eosin [H&E] and 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride [TTC]). Rat cardiomyoblasts (H9c2) were used for in vitro hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) cell model construction. Cell viability, apoptosis, lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and iron content were determined via Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometric assays. Gene and ferroptosis-related protein expression levels were verified by qRT‒PCR and Western blotting. RNA pull-down, RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP), and a dual-luciferase reporter system were utilized for verification of the molecular interactions.ResultsThe results showed that MI/RI was accompanied by ferroptosis. We also found that activating transcription factor 3 (ATF3) knockdown promoted myocardial cell viability and inhibited ferroptosis. Notably, activation of ATF3 transcription was demonstrated to upregulate the expression of its downstream target ACSL4. Functional analysis indicated that circBAZ1B promoted ATF3 expression via miR-1252-5p. In vivo experimental data further revealed that circBAZ1B suppressed cardiomyocyte activity and promoted ferroptosis, thereby facilitating MI/RI progression.ConclusionsThe circBAZ1B/miR-1252-5p/ATF3 axis is crucial in MI/RI pathogenesis through ferroptosis regulation, offering a potential therapeutic target. Inhibiting this pathway may alleviate MI/RI effects, suggesting the need for further clinical studies.
