Methods: A total of 102 eligible patients treated from June 2013 to April 2015 were selected. The cases of complete remission and partial remission were included into radiotherapy-sensitive group (n=55), while those of stable disease and progressive disease were enrolled into radiotherapy-resistant group (n=47). Before treatment, tissues were collected to detect the expressions of CFL1 and CFL1 (phospho S3) by immunohistochemistry. The survival time and rate were recorded during follow-up. Results: Compared with the radiotherapy-sensitive group, the radiotherapy-resistant group had advanced tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage and higher lymph node metastasis rate (P=0.000, 0.000). Compared with the tissues with negative CFL1 expression, the tissues with positive CFL1 expression had advanced TNM stage and higher lymph node metastasis rate (P=0.013, 0.000). The positive expression rate of CFL1 in the radiotherapy-resistant group was higher than that of the radiotherapy-sensitive group, whereas the positive expression rate of CFL1 (phospho S3) in the former was lower (P=0.000, 0.000). Lymph node metastasis, high CFL1 expression, and low CFL1 (phospho S3) expression were independent predictors for resistance to radiotherapy (P=0.001, 0.006, 0.003). In the radiotherapy-sensitive group, the patients with negative CFL1 expression and positive CFL1 (phospho S3) expression had long progression-free survival and high 5-year survival rate (P=0.000, 0.000). Conclusion: The sensitivity to radiotherapy of elderly NSCLC patients is correlated negatively with CFL1 and positively with phosphorylation at locus Ser3. CFL1 and phosphorylation at locus Ser3 are independent predictors for sensitivity to radiotherapy.","PeriodicalId":49599,"journal":{"name":"Revista Romana De Medicina De Laborator","volume":"66 1","pages":"379 - 388"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89032789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Material and method: Between October 2016 and September 2017, 47 non-duplicate Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) were isolated from blood cultures, from hospitalized patients in the Regional Institute of Gastroenterology and Hepathology, Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility tests (AST) were performed by Vitek 2 Compact. The combination disks test (CDT) was used for phenotypic analysis and the LightCycler® Multiplex DNA assay was used to detect and identify the carbapenemases by the LightCycler®z 480 Instrument. The following targets were chosen: blaKPC, blaNDM, blaGES, blaIMP and blaOXA-48 genes and the Cobas® 4800 software variant 2.2.0 was used for the results interpretation. Results: Taking into consideration the meropenem minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), 29 KP were susceptible and 18 were not-susceptible (MIC≥0.5 µg ml-1). In the CR-KP group, the CDT identified OXA-48 (10/18) and KPC (7/18) producers. One isolate showed a noninterpretable profile. The multiplex molecular analyses confirmed the carbapenemases production as: 9 CR-KP were KPC and OXA-48 co-producers, 8 were OXA-48 and one was KPC producing strains. In CR-KP group, we found a significant correlation between the CDT and RT-PCR tests results, concerning KPC (p = 0.671). Eight phenotypic results were confirmed by molecular Light-Cycler® Multiplex DNA assay. For CR-KP co-producers (KPC and OXA-48), the CDT could indicate only one carbapenem-hydrolyzing enzyme. Conclusion: This study highlights the CR-KP co-producers (OXA-48 and KPC). OXA-48-like is more frequently encountered in our area than other carbapenemases.","PeriodicalId":49599,"journal":{"name":"Revista Romana De Medicina De Laborator","volume":"34 1","pages":"315 - 326"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82227103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: Ninety URSA patients and another 104 healthy pregnant women were selected as URSA and control groups, respectively. 25-Hydroxyvitamin D [25-(OH)D] level was detected by chemiluminescence. VDR gene Fok I polymorphism was analyzed by PCR, and the distribution of genotype frequency was calculated by Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test. Association between Fok I polymorphism and susceptibility to URSA was investigated by logistic regression analysis. Results: Gestational age, uterine height, waist circumference, 25-(OH)D level and proportions of Fok I FF and Ff genotypes were significantly lower in the URSA group (P<0.05). Compared with ff genotype, risk of URSA reduced for Ff and FF genotypes. Compared with allele f, risk of URSA was lower for allele F. 25-(OH)D level of ff genotype was significantly lower in the URSA group, which was lower than that of FF genotype (P<0.05). Compared with women with 25-(OH)D level >30 ng/mL and F allele (FF+Ff), the risk of URSA increased 2.45-, 2.43- and 5.34-fold for those with 25-(OH)D level >30 ng/mL and ff genotype, with 25-(OH)D level ≤30 ng/mL, and with ff genotype and 25-(OH)D level ≤30 ng/mL, respectively. Conclusions: The 25-(OH)D level of the URSA group was significantly lower than that of normal pregnant women. Probably, VDR gene Fok I polymorphism is associated with URSA occurrence, and allele F decreases the risk. The risk of URSA dramatically increases in women with ff genotype and 25-(OH)D deficiency.","PeriodicalId":49599,"journal":{"name":"Revista Romana De Medicina De Laborator","volume":"2006 1","pages":"293 - 304"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90504707","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: To check the calculation mode, we used sets of random values and we performed the normality assessment using statistical calculation programs. We took non-Gaussian data (n = 30, n = 50, n = 100, n = 500) and Gaussian data (n = 30, n = 50, n = 100, n = 500) for which we checked the normality of the data. Data chosen for this study were most representative for each batch (n). Results: The application of normality tests to the data under study confirms that the data are non-Gaussian for the first data set. For the Gaussian data sample, the verification of normality is confirmed by the results. Conclusion: For data up to 50 subjects, it is recommended to apply the Shapiro-Wilk test, but also to apply graphical methods to confirm the accuracy of the result. If the data samples have more than 50 values, the D’Agostino & Pearson omnibus normality test should be applied and if the statistical program does not contain this test, the Shapiro-Wilk test can be applied (in the case of SPSS).

SBH is the result of abnormal neuronal migration, with improper positioning of the cortical neurons. DCX gene (doublecortin), a microtubule-associated protein with essential roles in neuronal migration and differentiation during brain development, is one of the main contributors to the X-linked Lissencephaly spectrum pathogenesis (OMIM #300067). DCX variants are responsible for SBH in females and isolated lissencephaly in males. Herein, we present a 7-year-old girl with a de novo frameshift variant in DCX gene, unreported by date. The patient has focal complex seizures with onset at 23 months of age, fully controlled with medication, mild tremor and coordination impairment of fine movements and some learning difficulties, otherwise with normal development. The brain magnetic resonance imaging revealed the presence of thick SBH. Direct sequencing of DCX gene revealed a pathogenic heterozygous cytosine duplication in exon 3; this frameshift variant leads to a premature stop codon in position 164 (p.Gln160Profs*5). The variant type and its predicted consequence at protein level correlates with the severity of radiological findings. The clinical presentation of our patient is, however, milder than expected. Our research expands the mutational spectrum of DCX gene in SBH females and provides a detailed clinical and imagistic description of the patient. This paper highlights the utility of single gene sequencing as a first-tier diagnostic test of patients with gene-specific phenotypic features.","PeriodicalId":49599,"journal":{"name":"Revista Romana De Medicina De Laborator","volume":"62 1","pages":"345 - 352"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76639849","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

APL treatment can have significant side effects, therefore the development of optimal therapeutic options is crucial. Although the study of miRNAs is still in its infancy, it has been shown that these molecules are involved in the pathogenesis of neoplasms by modulating the expression of target genes. miRNAs can be considered possible biomarkers in APL and can be used as therapeutic targets or as markers for the therapeutic response. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine whether differentially expressed putative miRNAs that have RARA as a target gene could be considered reliable biomarkers for APL. Methods: Using bioinformatics tools, a panel of 6 miRNAs with possible tropism for the RARA gene was selected from miRDB. We evaluated their expression levels in samples from patients with APL (n=20) or from healthy subjects without mutations in genes associated with leukemia or myeloproliferative diseases (n=21). Results: All 6 putative miRNAs were identified using electrophoresis (hsamir-4299, hsa-mir-4328, hsa-mir-7851-3p, hsa-mir-6827-5p, hsa-mir-6867-5p, hsa-mir-939-5p). Of the six miRNAs, hsa-mir-4328 is deeply downregulated in subjects diagnosed with APL compared to healthy subjects, whereas hsa-mir-4299 and hsa-mir-7851-3p show small differences in expression between the two study groups, but without statistical significance. Our results suggest that hsa-mir-4328 may have a role in the pathogenesis of APL and may represent a new biomarker for this type of leukemia.

We aimed to explore the expression of serum soluble Klotho protein in patients with AASV-induced renal damage and influence on prognosis. Methods: A total of 330 AASV patients treated from June 2012 to June 2014 were divided into renal damage and non-renal damage groups. Clinical symptoms and laboratory examination results were compared. They were divided into Klotho <935.05 pg/mL and ≥935.05 pg/mL groups, and renal damage and pathological indices were compared. Survival curves were plotted using Kaplan-Meier method, and 5-year and renal survival rates were compared. Results: Compared with the non-renal damage group, the mean arterial pressure, urine protein and blood creatinine levels significantly rose, while the red blood cell count, hemoglobin, serum albumin, and Klotho protein levels declined in the renal damage group (P<0.05). The optimal cut-off value of Klotho protein in assessing renal damage was 935.05 pg/mL.

However, it still lacks effective approaches to improve current prognosis of cervical cancer and prevent metastasis. Objective: We aim to discover a promising biomarker for cervical cancer prognosis by utilizing bioinformatics analysis. Methods: Gene expression was analyzed by the datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas Program-Cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (TCGA-CESC) dataset and three independent patient cohort datasets. Biological process and pathway enrichment were performed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways analysis. Immune infiltration was analyzed through TISIDB tool. Results: SPP1 gene was highly expressed in cervical cancer tissues. In addition, SPP1 was positively correlated to advanced CESC stages and nodal metastasis status. SPP1 co-expressed genes are mainly enriched in immunological processes. Furthermore, SPP1 expression is involved in immune infiltration level, in which several tumour infiltrating lymphocytes are correlated with SPP1.
