Objective:To explore the staged surgery for children with supratentorial arteriovenous malformation rupture and hemorrhage and evaluate the prognosis of staged treatment of arteriovenous malformation(AVM)in children.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2018, retrospective analysis was conducted for clinical data of 37 children with supratentorial cerebral arteriovenous malformation hemorrhage undergoing staged surgery.Clinical manifestations, surgical approaches and follow-up outcomes were recorded.Results:Emergency operation in the first stage was performed.There were intracranial hematoma evacuation( n=27)and extraventricular drainage( n=10). There was no mortality.After stabling, computed tomographic angiography(CTA)or digital subtraction angiography(DSA)was examined and the results were graded according to the Spetzler-Martin scheme.The grades were Ⅰ( n=12), Ⅱ( n=16)and Ⅲ( n=9). AVM resection was performed at Week 2 after an initial operation.DSA indicated that AVMs were completely removed at Month 6.Glasgow outcome scale(GOS)score at the end of follow-up was 5( n=32, 86.5%)and 4( n=5, 13.5%). No hemorrhage occurred during a follow-up period of(6-48)months. Conclusion:When preoperative cerebrovascular imaging cannot be completed due to certain conditions, staged treatment of supratentorial cerebral arteriovenous malformation rupture during acute phase is a feasible option for achieving a better prognosis with less neurological dysfunction in children.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic outcomes of surgical treatment of dural terminal cystoid meningocele (DTCM) in children.Methods:From January 2015 to January 2021, 11 children with DTCM underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Neurosurgery of the Children′s Hospital of Soochow University, of which 8 cases underwent cutting of the terminal filum + resection of intraspinal cyst + repair of terminal dural defect, 2 cases only underwent cutting of the terminal filum, 1 case underwent cutting of the terminal filum + partial resection of cyst wall + fat packing of cyst cavity. We retrospectively observed the clinical and imaging improvement of the children′s conditions.Results:None of the children had complications such as infection and cerebrospinal fluid leakage after surgery. The postoperative follow-up period was 3 months to 5 years and 4 months (median: 3 years and 6 months), and none of the patients developed new neurological symptoms. The original symptoms of 4 children with preoperative symptoms were significantly improved in 3 cases. Re-examination of MRI 3 to 6 months after surgery showed that all the children had cut terminal filum. In 8 patients who underwent repair of the terminal dural defect, postoperative MRI showed that the sacral cysts disappeared. In the patient who underwent cutting of the terminal filum + partial resection of cyst wall + fat packing of cystic cavity, postoperative MRI showed that the cyst was replaced by packed fat tissue. In 3 children with preoperative extreme dilation of the central canal of distal spinal cord and terminal filum, postoperative MRI showed that the dilation was significantly improved.Conclusion:Surgical treatment of DTCM in children is safe, which can improve the clinical symptoms and imaging changes of the children to a certain extent.

Objective To investigate the expression of NF-kappaB1 ( NF-κB1 ) in human glioma and glioma cell lines SHG44 and U87 and its correlation with apoptosis , which lay a theoretical foundation for the mechanism of NF-κB1 in human glioma .Methods qRT-PCR was used to determine the expression of NF-κB1 in noncancerous brain tissue and human glioma tissue samples respectively .Chemical synthesis of NF-κB1 silencing expression plasmids was transfected into the cell lines by the Lipofectamine 2000 liposome .The effects of NF-κB1 on the apoptosis of glioma cell lines SHG44 and U87 were detected by flow cytometry .The expression of NF-κB1 and BCL2 proteins were detected by western blot .Results qRT-PCR results showed that the expression of NF-κB1 in human glioma and glioma cell lines SHG 44 and U87 were significantly higher than those in non-brain tissue and increased with the increase of tumor malignancy .The expression of BCL2 was the same in the same human glioma specimen .The results of flow cytometry showed that inhibition of NF-κB1 expression significantly promoted the apoptosis of SHG 44 and U87 in human glioma cells(P<0.05).Western blot analysis further confirmed that the expression of BCL 2 protein was also decreased after inhibition of NF-κB1 protein expression .Conclusion NF-κB1 inhibits early apoptosis of glioma cells by promoting the expression of BCL 2.
Objective By exploring the expression of microRNA (miR)-140-5p in human glioma tissues,to investigate the effects of miR-140-5p on proliferation apoptosis and invasion of glioma cell lines.Methods By real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (Real-time PCR) detects the expression ofmiR-140-5p in human glioma tissues and U251,U87MG cell lines.miR-140-5p mimics were transfected into U251 and U87MG cells by Lipofectamine 2000.At the same time,the blank control group and negative control group were established.The expression level of miR-140-5p was identified by Real-time PCR.After transfection,transfection efficiency was observed by fluorescent microscope.The ability of cell proliferation was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8);cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry;the cell invasive ability was evaluated by Transwell assay.Results Real-time PCR showed that miR-140-5p expression in non-cancerous brain tissues was lower than in human brain glioma tissues and glioma cell lines,while it decreased with the increasing degree of malignancy in glioma (the relative expression of non-cancerous brain tissues,low grade and high grade glioma were 1.013,0.375 and 1.130,P <0.01).After over-expression of miR-140-5p,the U87MG and U251 cells proliferation and invasion ability were obviously inhibited (P < 0.01).Among them,the relative proliferation rate were 61.22% and 58.44%,the cell nember of who cross cell membrane fell by almost half.By flow cytometry on cell cycle analysis,results showed that cell cycle was arrested in G0/G1 phase and S phase was decreased (P < 0.01).The cell apoptosis was significantly increased larger than 12% after over-expression of miR-140-5 p (P < 0.01).Conclusion miR-140-5 p in glioma tissues is low expression,over-expression of miR-140-5p can inhibit glioma cell proliferation,arrest cell cycle,promote its apoptosis,and can effectively inhibit the invasiveness.
