ABSTRACT

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the epidemiological characteristics of cardio-metabolic risk factors among children and adolescents aged 7-17 years in (Hebei, Zhejiang, Shaanxi, Hunan) 4 provinces of China and the influence of demographic and economic characteristics on them. Methods: A total of 1 747 children and adolescents aged 7-17 from a Community-based Cohort Study on Nervous System Disease in 2018 were selected. High waist circumference, central obesity, elevated TG, elevated TC, elevated LDL-C, decreased HDL-C, elevated blood pressure, elevated blood glucose, and clustering of risk factors was analyzed. χ2 test was used for univariate analysis, multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between demographic and economic factors and risk factors, and the Cochran-Armitage trend test was used for trend analysis. Results: The detection rates of high waist circumference, decreased HDL-C, elevated blood pressure, elevated TG, elevated blood glucose, central obesity, elevated TC, and elevated LDL-C were 29.08%, 15.28%, 13.17%, 13.05%, 11.79%, 7.33%, 6.53%, and 5.15%, respectively. The rate of clustering of risk factors was 18.37%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the risk of high waist circumference in girls was higher than that in boys (OR=1.67, 95%CI: 1.26-2.22), and the risk of elevated blood glucose and clustering of risk factors was lower than that in boys (OR=0.69, 95%CI: 0.49-0.99; OR=0.72, 95%CI: 0.53-0.99). The risk of high waist circumference, decreased HDL-C, and clustering of risk factors in 13-17 years old group was higher than that in the 7-year-olds group (OR=2.24, 95%CI: 1.65-3.04; OR=1.59, 95%CI: 1.20-2.11; OR=1.75, 95%CI: 1.26-2.44), but the risk of central obesity was lower (OR=0.54, 95%CI: 0.37-0.78). The risk of elevated TC, elevated TG, and decreased HDL-C in children and adolescents in southern was higher than that in northern parts of China (OR=1.88, 95%CI: 1.25-2.83; OR=1.61, 95%CI: 1.17-2.22; OR=1.55, 95%CI: 1.19-2.04), but the risk of high waist circumference and central obesity was lower than that in northern China (OR=0.57, 95%CI: 0.43-0.75; OR=0.62, 95%CI: 0.42-0.90). The risk of decreased HDL-C in rural children and adolescents was higher than in urban children and adolescents (OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.02-1.83). The risk of multiple risk factors increased with the increase in average monthly household income per capita and BMI level. Conclusions: High waist circumference, decreased HDL-C and elevated blood pressure were prominent cardio-metabolic risk factors among children and adolescents aged 7-17 years in 4 provinces of China in 2018. The region, average monthly household income per capita, and BMI were the main influencing factors of cardio-metabolic risk factors.

ABSTRACT

Objectives: To examine the age cut-off point for poor clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) in children and adolescents. Methods: The clinicopathological features of 74 patients with DTC aged 18 years and younger who underwent surgery in the Department of Thyroid Surgery, the First Hospital of China Medical University from January 2011 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 20 males and 54 females, aged (M(IQR)) 16 (4) years (range: 8 to 18 years). Firstly, the cut-off point of age affecting prognosis was determined according to the receiver operator characteristic curve, the patients included in the study were grouped according to the age cut-off, and then the univariate and multivariate analysis for prognostic factors were performed using the Cox risk proportional regression model. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to verify the factors affecting the prognosis and analyzed the possible mechanisms by bioinformatics. Results: The cut-off value of age was 15 years. Age ≤15 years was the only prognostic factor for recurrence (HR=4.427, 95%CI: 1.236 to 15.859, P=0.022). The number of metastatic cervical lymph nodes was higher in patients aged ≤15 years, and the 10-year recurrence-free survival rate was much lower than in patients aged >15 years (50.4% vs. 84.1%, P=0.018). Gene enrichment analysis and differential gene identification showed that differential genes between ≤15 years old group and>15 years old group were closely related to the transforming growth factor-β signaling pathway and some metabolism-related signaling pathways. Conclusions: Age ≤15 years is the only prognostic factor for the prognosis of DTC in children and adolescents. Age ≤15 years had more cervical lymph node metastases and a worse prognosis. For younger DTC patients, more active treatment and a stricter postoperative management strategy should be adopted.

ABSTRACT

The epidemiological, clinical, and molecular characteristics of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) in children and adolescents are different from those in adults. The incidence of DTC in children and adolescents is very low, with high rates of lymph node metastasis, extra-thyroidal extension and recurrence, but mortality is lower than that in adults. Younger children with DTC tend to show a higher rate of recurrence, more lymph node metastases, and more extra-thyroidal extension. Furthermore, studies on molecular characteristics suggest that the diversity of gene mutations causes the clinical manifestations of DTC in children and adolescents that are different from those in adults. The incidence of gene fusion is significantly higher than in adults, while the incidence of point mutations is lower than in adults, which may be closely related to clinicopathological characteristics such as high tumor aggressiveness and poor prognosis.

ABSTRACT

In recent years, the focus of anti-cancer agents has gradually shifted from cytotoxic chemotherapy to molecular-targeted agents that interfere with frequently overexpressed or mutated molecules in cancer cells. Compared with cytotoxic chemotherapy, molecular-targeted therapy is a new biological therapy with higher specificity and lower toxicity, however, the adverse reactions caused by molecular-targeted agents cannot be ignored. Diarrhea is one of the most common adverse drug reactions, which could seriously affect the quality of life and even lead to treatment discontinuation and consequently decreased cancer control. To provide a reference for relevant research and clinical medication, we review the current reports on the incidence, pathogenic mechanism, and management of diarrhea induced by the molecular-targeted agents.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#This study aimed to determine the independent and joint associations of sedentary time (ST) and physical activity (PA) with metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components among Chinese adults.@*Methods@#The study analyzed data from 4,865 adults aged ≥ 18 years who participated in the 2009 and 2015 China Health and Nutrition Surveys (CHNS). Four types of leisure ST and three types of PA self-reported at baseline were collected. Multivariable logistic regressions were used to determine the independent and joint associations of ST and PA with the odds of MetS or its components.@*Results@#For independent effects, higher levels of television time and total leisure ST was associated with higher MetS risk [odds ratio ( @*Conclusions@#MVPA and total PA have independent preventive effects, and sedentary behavior (mainly watching TV) has an unsafe effect on MetS and its components. Strengthening the participation of MVPA and combining the LPA to replace the TV-based ST to increase the total PA may be necessary to reduce the prevalence of MetS in Chinese adults.

ABSTRACT

Sea buckthorn(Hippophae rhamnoides) is widely distributed, with abundant resources, a long history of application, and rich nutrition and high medicinal value. Therefore, it has attracted extensive attention from researchers at home and abroad. The focus of attention is mainly on sea buckthorn fruit, but with weak research and development of sea buckthorn leaves. In order to develop and utilize abundant resources of sea buckthorn leaves, this paper systematically reviewed domestic and foreign literatures and summarized the current application, harvesting and processing, chemical constituents and pharmacological activities of sea buckthorn leaves. Sea buckthorn leaves have a wide development and utilization value in food raw materials(like a substituting-for-tea plant), pharmaceutical raw materials and animal feed. Modern studies have shown that the leaves of sea buckthorn are rich in polysaccharides, flavonoids, polyphenols, triterpenes and steroids, as well as vitamins(especially vitamin C), proteins, amino acids and mineral elements. It has various pharmacological effects, such as anti-obesity, hypoglycemia, anti-oxidation, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and anti-cardiovascular diseases. Domestic and foreign studies have showed that sea buckthorn leaves have important development and utilization prospects, and are worth further study and development.

ABSTRACT

To scientifically evaluate the intervention effect of Chinese medicine preventive administration(combined use of Huo-xiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid and Jinhao Jiere Granules) on community population in the case of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), a large cohort, prospective, randomized, and parallel-controlled clinical study was conducted. Total 22 065 subjects were included and randomly divided into 2 groups. The non-intervention group was given health guidance only, while the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) intervention group was given two coordinated TCM in addition to health guidance. The medical instructions were as follows. Huoxiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid: oral before meals, 10 mL/time, 2 times/day, a course of 5 days. Jinhao Jiere Granules: dissolve in boiling water and take after meals, 8 g/time, 2 times/day, a course of 5 days, followed up for 14 days, respectively. The study found that with the intake of medication, the incidence rate of TCM intervention group was basically maintained at a low and continuous stable level(0.01%-0.02%), while the non-intervention group showed an overall trend of continuous growth(0.02%-0.18%) from 3 to 14 days. No suspected or confirmed COVID-19 case occurred in either group. There were 2 cases of colds in the TCM intervention group and 26 cases in the non-intervention group. The incidence of colds in the TCM intervention group was significantly lower(P<0.05) than that in the non-intervention group. In the population of 16-60 years old, the incidence rate of non-intervention and intervention groups were 0.01% and 0.25%, respectively. The difference of colds incidence between the two groups was statistically significant(P<0.05). In the population older than 60 years old, they were 0.04% and 0.21%, respectively. The incidence of colds in the non-intervention group was higher than that in the intervention group, but not reaching statistical difference. The protection rate of TCM for the whole population was 91.8%, especially for the population of age 16-60(95.0%). It was suggested that TCM intervention(combined use of Huoxiang Zhengqi Oral Liquid and Jinhao Jiere Granules) could effectively protect community residents against respiratory diseases, such as colds, which was worthy of promotion in the community. In addition, in terms of safety, the incidence of adverse events and adverse reactions in the TCM intervention group was relatively low, which was basically consistent with the drug instructions.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#The present study aimed to investigate the association of red meat usual intake with metabolic syndrome (MetS), and explore the contribution of red meat usual intake to serum ferritin.@*Methods@#Based on the data from the longitudinal China Health and Nutrition Survey (CHNS), 2,797 healthy adults aged 18-75 years without hypertension, diabetes, and MetS were selected in 2009 as subjects and follow-up studies were carried out till 2015. We used the National Cancer Institute (NCI) method to estimate the usual intake of foods. Multivariable logistic regressions were performed to evaluate the association between red meat usual intake and the risk of MetS. Quantile regression analysis was used to study the relationship between red meat consumption and serum ferritin levels.@*Results@#After adjusting for potential confounders, red meat, and fresh red meat were positively associated with the risk of MetS ( = 1.41, 95% : 1.05-1.90 and = 1.37, 95% : 1.02-1.85, respectively). These relationships showed increasing trend ( < 0.05). The level of serum ferritin increased significantly with the number of MetS components ( < 0.05). The quantile regression analysis showed that red meat and fresh red meat usual intake had a significant positive association with serum ferritin levels across the entire conditional serum ferritin distribution ( < 0.05). Processed red meat did not exhibit a similar association.@*Conclusion@#Higher red meat usual intake was associated with an increased risk of MetS and elevated serum ferritin levels.

ABSTRACT

This study aimed to examine the association between famine exposure in different stages of life and the risk of overweight/obesity and abdominal obesity in laterlife. A total of 12,458 participants were categorized into non-exposure and four direct exposures, including fetal, childhood, adolescence, and adult exposure. Only risk of being overweight or obesity in adolescence exposure [odds ratio ( ), 1.45; 95% confidence interval ( ), 1.08-1.94] was significantly higher than in non-exposure. Childhood ( , 1.27; 95% , 1.05-1.54) and adolescence ( , 1.53; 95% , 1.15-2.05) exposures had significantly an increased risk of abdominal obesity compared with non-exposure. Additionally, different famine severity exposures had different influences on the development of overweight/obesity and abdominal obesity. Famine exposure in adolescence, which was a behavior formative period, can increase the risk of overweight/obesity and abdominal obesity in adulthood, specifically in famine severely affect area.

ABSTRACT

With the development and clinical application of immunological checkpoint drugs such as pro- grammed cell death protein-1(PD-1)/programmed cell death-ligand 1(PD-L1)and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated an- tigen-4(CTLA-4), immunotherapy has gradually become one of the most effective clinical treatment methods. Cluster of differentiation 47(CD47), as a natural immune checkpoint molecule, is highly expressed in almost all human cancers (solid tumors and hematological tumors), affecting tumor progression and metastasis, and is involved in the apoptosis, proliferation, adhesion, migration and other processes. Therefore, CD47 has become an important target for the study of human tumors. At present, a number of preclinical studies and clinical trials of the drugs targeting CD47 antibodies and Fc fusion protein are being actively carried out in various countries. This review briefly introduces the structure, function and related diseases of CD47 and focuses mainly on the development and clinical application strategy of CD47 therapeutic antibody drugs.

ABSTRACT

The present study was designed to examine the therapeutic effects of Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT/A) on depression-like behaviors in mice and to explore the potential mechanisms. These results revealed that a single facial injection of BoNT/A induced a rapid and prolonged improvement of depression-like behaviors in naïve and space-restriction-stressed (SRS) mice, reflected by a decreased duration of immobility in behavioral despair tests. BoNT/A significantly increased the 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) levels in several brain regions, including the hippocampus and hypothalamus, in SRS mice. BoNT/A increased the expression of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor subunits NR1 and NR2B in the hippocampus, which were significantly decreased in SRS mice. Furthermore, BoNT/A significantly increased the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus, hypothalamus, prefrontal cortex, and amygdala, which were decreased in SRS mice. Finally, BoNT/A transiently increased the levels of phosphorylated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (p-ERK) and cAMP-response element binding protein (p-CREB), which were suppressed in the hippocampus of SRS mice. Collectively, these results demonstrated that BoNT/A treatment has anti-depressant-like activity in mice, and this is associated with increased 5-HT levels and the activation of BDNF/ERK/CREB pathways in the hippocampus, supporting further investigation of BoNT/A therapy in depression.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To identify the characteristics of Chinese obesogenic environments at a provincial level, infer a spatial distribution map of obesity prevalence in 31 provinces, and provide a foundation for development of policy to reduce obesity in children and adolescents.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>After scanning obesity data on subjects aged 7-17 years from 12 provinces in the China Health and Nutrition Survey 2011 and environmental data on 31 provinces from the China Statistical Yearbook 2011 and other sources, we selected 12 predictors. We used the 12 surveyed provinces as a training sample to fit an analytical model with partial least squares regression and prioritized the 12 predictors using variable importance in projection. We also fitted a predictive model with Bayesian analysis.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>We identified characteristics of obesogenic environments. We fitted the predictive model with a deviance information criterion of 61.96 and with statistically significant (P < 0.05) parameter estimates of intercept [95% confidence interval (CI): 329.10, 963.11], log(oil) (CI: 13.11, 20.30), log(GDP) (CI: 3.05, 6.93), log(media) (CI: -234.95, -89.61), and log(washing-machine) (CI: 0.92, 5.07). The total inferred average obesity prevalence among those aged 7-17 was 9.69% in 31 Chinese provinces in 2011. We also found obvious clustering in occurrences of obesity in northern and eastern provinces in the predicted map.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Given complexity of obesity in children and adolescents, concerted efforts are needed to reduce consumption of edible oils, increase consumption of vegetables, and strengthen nutrition, health, and physical activity education in Chinese schools. The northern and eastern regions are the key areas requiring intervention.</p>

ABSTRACT

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSC)are heterogeneous cells with the myeloid progenitor cells and the imma-ture myeloid cells accumulated in pathological conditions.MDSC can inhibit the host immune response to tumors via inhibiting the pro-liferation and cytotoxicity of T cells as well as promoting the proliferation of protumorigenic T regulatory cells(Treg).In addition,MD-SC can also promote the angiogenesis and the tumor invasion and metastasis.Therefore,MDSC are potential therapeutic targets for a variety of tumors.This review summarizes the biological function of MDSC along with the MDSC-targeted inhibitors and their applica-tions in cancer immunotherapy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of 12-O-tetradecanoylophorbol-13-decanoate(TPD)on protection against acute intestinal radiation injury of mice and the possible mechanism.Methods Twenty female BALB/c mice aged 6-8 weeks were divided by random number table method into the control group and TPD groups(25,50,and 100 μg/kg). A radiation-damaged model of mice was irradiated by 10 Gy 60Co γ-rays,while the TPD groups were pretreated for 3 d with caudal vein injection before irradiation.The survival time of 20 days and the number of crypts at 3.5 days after irradiation were detected.Rat intestinal epithelial cells(IEC-6)were treated with 1 nmol/L TPD for 12 h before irradiation with 10 Gy 60Co γ-rays,and CCK-8 was used to detect the capability of cell proliferation at 0,1,2,3 and 4 d after irradiation. Results The mice in the control group survived for an average of 4.2 days,compared to 10 days in the optimal TPD group (100 μg/kg).The average number of crypts in the control group and the best TPD group was 11.0 ±1.3 and 35.1 ±1.9 respectively.The proliferation activity of IEC-6 was measured for four consecutive days.The average D value of the TPD groups was significantly higher than that of control.Conclusion TPD has a protective effect against acute intestinal radiation injury, and its protective mechanism may be achieved by promoting intestinal crypt cell proliferation and increasing the number of crypts in the intestine.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2(Nrf2)-autophagy pathway on the incisional pain-remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia of rat model. Methods Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly allocated into three groups:saline+incisional pain group(group I),remifentanil+incisional pain group(group RI)and Nrf2 agonist t-BHQ group(group tBHQ),with 8 rats in each group.In group I and RI,normal saline at 0.1 mL/(kg· min) and remifentanilat 1 μg/(kg·min) were respectively infused into caudal vein for 60 min. Rats in group t-BHQ were injected intraperitoneally with Nrf2 agonist t-BHQ(15 mg/kg),the first time at 0.5 h before remifentanil infusion,per 12 h once,4 times in a row,the rest management was the same as group RI.Brennan incision pain model rats were constructed along with the infusions in the three groups. The thermal paw withdraw latency (PWL) and mechanical paw withdraw threshold(PWT)were measured at 24 h before the infusion(T0)and at 2 h(T1),6 h(T2),24 h(T3),48 h(T4)after the infusion. Rats were sacrificed after the tests, then the L4-6segments of signal cord were removed and the expression levels of autophagy-related proteins,microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3Ⅱ(LC3Ⅱ),Beclin 1,Nrf2 and Nrf2 downstream molecular hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1) were detected by Western blot assay. Results The PWT and PWL values were decreased significantly with the prolongation of the processing time in the three groups. Compared with group I, PWL and PWT values were decreased at T1-4,the expression levels of LC3Ⅱand Beclin-1 were increased while Nrf2 and HO-1 were decreased at T4in group RI (P<0.05). While compared with group RI, PWL and PWT values were increased, and the expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 were increased, LC3Ⅱ and Beclin-1 protein were upregulated in group tBHQ (P<0.05).Conclusion The activation of Nrf2-autophagy pathway can improve the incisional pain-remifentanil induced hyperalgesia.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the relationship between miRNA-196b-5p and miRNA-99a-5p expression and autophagy and apoptosis in multiple myeloma cells. Methods: Human myeloma cell line U266 and normal CD138+ plasma cells were selected as the research objects. The subjects were divided into 45 cases of multiple myeloma patients and 40 healthy controls. The expression of miRNA-196b-5p and miRNA-99a-5p was measured by real-time quantitative PCR, and Western blot was used to determine the expression of autophagy related protein LC3-Ⅱ, LC3-Ⅰ, P62, Beclin-1 expression, apoptosis related protein CL caspase3, CL caspase7, Bcl-2, Bax, and TGF-β/Smad pathway associated proteins TGF-β1, Smad2/3, p-Smad3 and Smad7. The cell apoptosis rate was determined by flow cytometry. The correlation between miRNA expression level and clinical characteristics of multiple myeloma patients was analyzed. Results: Compared with normal plasma cells, the expression of miRNA-196b-5p in myeloma cells increased significantly (0.43±0.15 vs 2.44±0.63 or 2.02±0.85, all P<0.001), the expression of miRNA-99a-5p was significantly decreased (1.87±0.61 vs 0.62±0.15 or 0.80±0.33, P<0.001), LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ increased significantly (P<0.05), Beclin-1 expression increased significantly (P<0.05), P62 expression decreased significantly (P<0.05). The expression of Bax, CL caspase3 and CL caspase7 decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the expression of Bcl-2 increased significantly (P<0.05) and apoptosis rate significantly decreased (P<0.05). After transfected with miRNA-196b-5p mimic or miRNA-99a-5p inhibitor, the LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ of CD138+ plasma cells increased significantly (P<0.05), the expression of Beclin-1 increased significantly (P<0.05), P62 expression decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the apoptosis rate significantly decreased (P<0.05). However, after autophagy inhibitor of 3-MA was administered, the apoptotic rate of the above reaction system did not change significantly (P>0.05). The expression of miRNA-196b-5p and miRNA-99a-5p was significantly correlated with DS and ISS stage in multiple myeloma patients (P<0.05). Conclusion: miRNA-196b-5p and miRNA-99a-5p are closely related to the clinical characteristics of patients with multiple myeloma. The overexpression of miRNA-196b-5p and down regulation of miRNA-99a-5p could inhibit the apoptosis of myeloma cells by up regulation of autophagy, and the mechanism is related to the activation of the TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway.
