ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To explore the relevant risk factors of Henoch-Schonlein purpura (HSP) recurrence so as to provide some theoretical basis for early identification of children prone to recurrence. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 417 children with HSP hospitalized in Department of Pediatrics, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University, in the past five years were collected and followed up. They were divided into recurrent group and non-recurrent group. Cox regression analysis was used for univariate and multivariate analysis, and finally the independent risk factors for HSP recurrence were screened. 【Results】 A total of 417 children with initial onset of HSP were included in the study. During the follow-up period of 14 to 60 months, 78 cases recurred, and the recurrence rate was 18.7%. 94.9% of the children had relapse within 1 year. The results of univariate Cox regression analysis showed that age >7 years old at the time of onset, history of infection, history of strenuous exercise, duration of rashes more than 4 weeks, high level of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and high level of platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were all risk factors for HSP recurrence (P7 years old at the time of onset, history of infection, history of strenuous exercise, duration of rashes for more than 4 weeks at the first onset, and high PLR level were independent risk factors for HSP recurrence (P 7 years at the time of onset, with a history of infection, vigorous exercise, rashes lasting more than 4 weeks, and high PLR level, nursing should be strengthened after discharge to avoid infection and vigorous exercise and increase the frequency of follow-up.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To assess the left ventricular function and hemodynamic status in infantile pneumonia by ultrasonic cardiac output monitor (USCOM).Methods:The clinical data of 74 children with infantile pneumonia hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics of Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from October 2018 to January 2020 were collected in this study, and those cases were divided into the mild pneumonia group (45 cases) and the severe pneumonia group (29 cases). USCOM was employed to measure such data of patients in both groups as heart rate (HR), flow time corrected (FTc), stroke volume variability (SVV), stroke volume index (SVI), cardiac index (CI), inotropy index(INO), and systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI). The specific values of CI and SVRI in all ages were employed to determine the hemodynamic type.According to values of CI, they were grouped into normal, high and low output; according to values of SVRI, they were grouped into normal, high and low resistance.The left ventricular function and hemodynamic status of infants with pneumonia in both groups were compared.Results:(1) In the mild pneumonia group, 42.22% of infants (19/45 cases) presented with abnormal hemodynamic status, of which 94.74% were high-output and low-resistance type.In the severe pneumonia group, 79.31%(23/29 cases) of infants presented with abnormal hemodynamic status, of which 86.96%(20/23 cases) were non-high-output and non-low-resistance type.The proportion of different hemodynamic types from high to low in order is as follows: low-output and high-resistance (39.13%), high-output and normal-resistance (26.09%), low-output and low-resistance (13.04%), and normal-output and low-resistance (8.70%). (2)Before treatment, HR, SVI, CI, INO and SVRI in the severe pneumonia group and the mild pneumonia group were (153.2±19.3) times/min, (32.0±5.8) mL/m 2, (4.3±1.0) L/(min·m 2), (1.1±0.4) W/m 2, (1 139.0±280.6) d·s·cm -5·m 2 and(140.2±13.2) times/min, (39.2±4.1) mL/m 2, (5.1±0.8) L/(min·m 2), (1.4±0.2) W/m 2, and (904.7±175.8) d·s·cm -5·m 2, respectively.SVI, CI and INO in the severe pneumonia group were lower than those in the mild pneumonia group, which indicated that the difference was statically significant (all P<0.05). HR and SVRI in the severe pneumonia group were higher than those in the mild pneumonia group, which indicated that the difference was statically significant (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in cardiac preload between both groups before treatment ( P>0.05). HR in the severe pneumonia group after treatment[(137.6±9.3) times/min] were significantly lower than before treatment, while SVI and CI[(36.2±3.4) mL/m 2, (4.7±0.3)L/(min·m 2)] were higher than before treatment, which indicated that the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The USCOM provided a rapid approach for the dynamic measurement of left ventricular function and hemodynamic status.As per the findings with USCOM, more infants with mild pneumonia presented with hemodynamic abnormalities, and most of them were high-output and low-resistance types.The majority of infants with severe pneumonia presented with different types of hemodynamic abnormalities, and most of them were non-high-output and non-low-resistance types, which can return to normal after treatment.

Five milliliters of peripheral venous blood samples were collected from these subjects, and DNA was extracted. Nine SNPs located in the coding regions of IL-12 pathway-related genes were selected, including IL-12B (rs2082412, rs2288831, rs3212227, rs3213094, rs7709212) , IL-23R (rs11209026, rs2201841, rs7530511) and IL-28RA (rs4649203) genes, and detected by next-generation sequencing. HLA-Cw*0602 was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP) . Statistical analysis was carried out with PLINK1.07 software, Chi-square test was used to compare allele frequencies between the 2 groups, relative risk estimates of alleles were calculated by using odds ratio ( OR) , and chi-square test for R × C contingency tables was used for haplotype analysis. Results:The allele frequencies of rs2082412, rs2288831, rs3212227, rs3213094 and rs7709212 in the IL-12B gene were significantly lower in the patients with psoriasis vulgaris of Han nationality than in the controls of Han nationality (all P < 0.005) ; the allele frequency of rs3213094 in the IL-12B gene was significantly lower in the patients of Mongolian nationality than in the controls of Mongolian nationality ( P < 0.005) . The prevalence of HLA-Cw*0602 was significantly lower in the patients with psoriasis vulgaris of Han and Mongolian nationalities than in the controls of corresponding nationalities (both P < 0.005) . As stratification analysis showed, the allele frequencies of rs2082412, rs2288831, rs3212227, rs3213094 and rs7709212 in the IL-12B gene were significantly lower in HLA-Cw*0602-positive patients of Han nationality than in HLA-Cw*0602-positive controls of Han nationality (all P < 0.005) , while there was no significant difference between HLA-Cw*0602-negative patients of Han nationality and HLA-Cw*0602-negative controls of Han nationality (all P > 0.05) . Among the HLA-Cw*0602-positive or negative populations of Mongolian nationality, no significant difference was observed in the allele frequencies between the patients and controls (all P > 0.005) . Haplotypes were constructed using 5 SNPs in the IL-12B gene, and there was no significant difference in the frequencies of 6 haplotypes between the patients and controls of Mongolian or Han nationality (all P > 0.005) ; stratification analysis showed that there was no significant difference in the frequencies of 7 haplotypes between HLA-Cw*0602-positive/negative patients and controls of Mongolian or Han nationality (all P > 0.005) . Conclusion:IL-12 pathway-related gene polymorphisms are associated with psoriasis vulgaris in the populations of Mongolian and Han nationalities in Inner Mongolia, and there may be interaction between IL-12B and HLA-Cw*0602 in the occurrence of psoriasis vulgaris.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the effect of ribosomal protein L34 (RPL34) gene knockdown on the proliferation and apoptosis of human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) cells.Methods:From January 2016 to January 2017, 14 paraffin-embedded skin samples of cSCC and 16 paraffin-embedded normal skin tissue samples were collected from Department of Dermatology and Venereology, the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University, and RPL34 expression in the skin tissues was analyzed by immunohistochemical study. A lentivirus vector containing short hairpin RNA targeting RPL34 gene was constructed and used to transfect a human cSCC cell line SCL-1 (shRNA group) , SCL-1 cells transfected with an empty lentivirus vector served as control group, and the knockdown efficiency was verified by real-time quantitative PCR (RT-PCR) and Western blot analysis. At 72 hours after the transfection, flow cytometry was performed to analyze the cell cycle and detect apoptosis of SCL-1 cells, and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay to evaluate the cellular proliferative activity of SCL-1 cells. Comparisons between 2 groups were performed by using t test or rank sum test. Results:Immunohistochemical study showed that the cytoplasmic expression score of RPL34 was significantly higher in the cSCC tissues (2.143±1.956) than in the normal control tissues (0.500±0.516, z=3.53, P< 0.05) . RT-PCR showed that the relative mRNA expression of RPL34 in the SCL-1 cells was significantly lower in the shRNA group (0.149±0.016) than in the control group (1±0.018, t=36.95, P< 0.05) ; Western blot analysis revealed that the relative protein expression of RPL34 in the SCL-1 cells was significantly lower in the shRNA group than in the control group. Compared with the control group, the shRNA group showed a significantly increased proportion of S-phase cells ( t=13.76, P< 0.05) , but a significantly decreased proportion of G1-phase cells ( t=36.62, P< 0.05) ; the apoptosis rate was significantly higher in the shRNA group (9.42%±0.16%) than in the control group (4.58%±0.41%, t=19.02, P< 0.05) . MTT assay showed that the cell viability was significantly decreased in the shRNA group (0.815±0.005) than in the control group (1.886±0.005, t=265.91, P< 0.05) after additional 120-hour culture. Conclusion:The RPL34 gene was overexpressed in the cSCC tissues, and knockdown of the RPL34 gene in SCL-1 cells could interfere with cell cycle, decrease their proliferative activity, and promote their apoptosis.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the relationship of polymorphisms in metabolic syndrome-related genes with psoriasis vulgaris (PsV) and their interaction with HLA-C*06:02 in populations of Mongolian nationality.Methods:Totally, 379 PsV inpatients of Mongolian nationality and 518 healthy controls of Mongolian nationality were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from December 2012 to March 2018. Sixteen previously reported single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and HLA-C*06:02, which were related to metabolic syndrome and its components, were selected. Next-generation sequencing and polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) typing were performed to determine the genotypes of these subjects. Minor allele frequencies of the 16 mutation sites and HLA-C*06:02 were calculated in the PsV group and control group, and chi-square test was used to analyze the differences in the minor allele frequencies of SNPs between the 2 groups.Results:There was no significant difference in the minor allele frequencies of the 16 SNPs susceptible to metabolic syndrome between the Mongolian PsV patients and healthy controls (all P > 0.05), while the minor allele frequency of HLA-C*06:02 significantly differed between the 2 groups ( P = 4.09 × 10 -35, OR = 3.41). Among the HLA-C*06:02-positive subjects, the minor allele frequencies of rs7593730_T and rs6931514_G significantly differed between the 252 PsV patients and 191 healthy controls ( P = 0.016, OR = 0.64; P = 0.041, OR = 1.33, respectively) ; no significant difference was observed in the minor allele frequencies of the 16 SNPs between the PsV patients and healthy controls among the HLA-C*06:02-negative subjects ( P > 0.05) . Conclusion:The SNPs of rs7593730 and rs6931514 may be related to PsV in populations of Mongolian nationality in Inner Mongolia, and may interact with HLA-C*06:02.

ABSTRACT
The Fe-N-C composite catalyst was prepared by the thermal decomposition of the chelate precursors based on Fe central ions and o-phenylenediamine ligands.It was observed from the scanning electron microscopy that the crumpled carbon micro-and nano-sheets were intertwined to form a free-standing tremella-like 3D structure.The N2 adsorption/desorption experiments revealed that the composite contained ample micro-and meso-pores and had a specific surface area of 290 m2/g.Graphitic C and multi-crystal Fe3C as main components were confirmed by the X-ray diffraction, and N-doping in the general form of graphite N and pyridine N was also verified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The electrochemical measurement showed that the tremella-like Fe-N-C composite catalyzed oxygen reduction through a four-electron path in an alkaline solution, and its activity was comparable to the commercial Pt/C catalyst.After 2000 cycles, the limited current density of the Fe-N-C catalytic electrode only decreased less than 5%, and the half-wave potential shift negatively 5 mV, which suggested that the Fe-N-C composite catalyst had better catalytic stability than the commercially used Pt/C catalyst.

Objective:To explore the relationship between dyslipidemia and blood pressure variability (BPV)in pa-tients with essential hypertension.Methods:A total of 251 patients with essential hypertension (EH),who were treated in our department of outpatient from Jan 2011 to Dec 2012,were selected.There were 114 patients with EH complicated dyslipidemia were regarded as EH+dyslipidemia group and 137 pure EH patients reganed as pure EH group.All patients received ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM);BPV indexes were compared between two groups.Results:Compared with pure EH group,there were significant rise in standard variations (SD)of 24h systolic blood pressure (SBP)and diastolic blood pressure (DBP)[(10.59±2.04)vs.(14.96±4.12),(10.16± 2.11)vs.(12.34±3.19)],24h SBP coefficient of variation (SBPCV)[(0.13±3.07)vs.(0.91±2.21)];daytime (d)SBPSD and DBPSD [(11.27±1.97)vs.(13.98±4.03),(8.94±2.01)vs.(11.34±3.12)],dSBPCV [(0.79±0.21)比 (1.01±0.31)];nighttime (n)SBPSD and DBPSD [(7.96±3.14)vs.(13.22±5.37),(8.13±1.97) vs.(9.95±3.47)],and nSBPCV and nDBPCV [(0.78±0.18)vs.(0.09 ±0.43),(1.07±0.34)vs.(0.13 ± 0.37)]in EH+dyslipidemia group,P <0.01 all.Conclusion:There are relationship between dyslipidemia and blood pressure variability in patients with essential hypertension.
ABSTRACT
Objective This study was to evaluate the effects of prevention and control regarding programs on typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever,in Guizhou province,from 2007 to 2012, to provide evidence for the improvement of related programs. Methods Data on typhoid fever and paratyphoid including information on epidemics,individual,cases,measures for prevention and control programs taken and relative government documents were collected and analyzed in Guizhou province,from 2007 to 2012. Information related to the average annual incidence,nature of outbreaks, time span before confirmed diagnosis was made,unit which carried the case report,proportion of laboratory confirmed diagnosed cases and case-management were compared between 2007-2009 and 2010-2012 descriptively while chi-square test with Excelland EpiInfo software were used for data analysis. Results In the period of 2007-2009,a total of 5 978 typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever cases were reported in Guizhou province with the average yearly incidence as 5.29/100 000. In the period of 2010-2012,2 765 cases were reported with the average yearly incidence as 2.57/100 000. When compared to the former,data from the latter period showed that the average yearly incidence had declined 51.31% in all the prefectures. There were still some outbreaks appeared but the total number of cases involved reduced 87.50%. The time span before the confirmation of diagnosis became shorter but the difference was not statistically significant (χ 2=0.08,P=0.99). Number of cases reported by hospitals at county or above had 11.51% of increase while those cases reported at the township hospitals or below decreased for 61.47%. The proportion of laboratory diagnosed cases increased 23.63%. Rates of timeliness on cards being filled in,inputted and audited showed increase of 8.44%,6.76%and 2.40%respectively. Conclusion Successful measures for prevention and control on typhoid fever and paratyphoid fever had been remarkably taken in Guizhou province,but the potential risk of outbreaks still existed in some areas,suggesting that health education and surveillance programs including laboratory diagnosis,should be strengthened.

ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the status quo and influence factors of self monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) and self-efficacy of diabetes patients' that participated in community diabetes self management group.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, Jiangsu, Guangdong, and Zhejiang were selected as the study sites considering patients management experiences they had. 1 401 adult diabetes patients were recruited from communities via health records system screening, telephone notification, poster advertisement, letters invitation ways. Face to face questionnaire survey was applied to obtain patients' general information, diabetes history, diabetes knowledge awareness, SMBG, and self-efficacy information. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the relationship between factors and self efficacy.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>There were 519 male patients (37.0%) and 882 female patients (63.0%) with an average age of (64.9 ± 8.9) years old. Patients lived in city accounted for 48.0% (672/1 401) and rural patients accounted for 52.0% (729/1 401). Patients who conducted SMBG accounted for 79.9% (1 120/1 401) and 33.3% (446/1 401) patients conducted blood glucose monitoring 1-3 times per month. Rural patients, primary school educated, and new rural cooperative medical system (NCMS) covered patients had a higher proportion of never conducting SMBG which were 21.9% (160/729), 24.2% (160/662), and 26.3% (125/475) , respectively. Scores of self-efficacy was (69.24 ± 16.30) (hundred-mark system) with a relative lower score in monitoring of blood glucose (64.09 ± 20.08) and foot care (63.63 ± 21.40), as well as a highest score in taking medicine and insulin injections (76.10 ± 22.00). Multiple regression analysis on self-efficacy and its related factors show a negative correlation between patients' place of residence and self-efficacy (β' = -0.076) and a positive correlation between education and self-efficacy (β' = 0.114) as well as between diabetes knowledge awareness and self-efficacy (β' = 0.193)(t = -2.46, 3.71, 7.18, P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Community diabetes patients had a low self-efficacy and it was even lower among low economic and education degree patients. The worst parts were SMBG and foot care. Place of residence, education, and diabetes knowledge awareness are factors that influence patients' self efficacy.</p>
