RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#Tissue uptake and distribution of nano-/microplastics was studied at a single high dose by gavage in vivo.@*METHODS@#Fluorescent microspheres (100 nm, 3 μm, and 10 μm) were given once at a dose of 200 mg/(kg∙body weight). The fluorescence intensity (FI) in observed organs was measured using the IVIS Spectrum at 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 h after administration. Histopathology was performed to corroborate these findings.@*RESULTS@#In the 100 nm group, the FI of the stomach and small intestine were highest at 0.5 h, and the FI of the large intestine, excrement, lung, kidney, liver, and skeletal muscles were highest at 4 h compared with the control group ( P < 0.05). In the 3 μm group, the FI only increased in the lung at 2 h ( P < 0.05). In the 10 μm group, the FI increased in the large intestine and excrement at 2 h, and in the kidney at 4 h ( P < 0.05). The presence of nano-/microplastics in tissues was further verified by histopathology. The peak time of nanoplastic absorption in blood was confirmed.@*CONCLUSION@#Nanoplastics translocated rapidly to observed organs/tissues through blood circulation; however, only small amounts of MPs could penetrate the organs.

AIM: To evaluate the long-term impact of mild traumatic brain injury(mTBI)on oculomotor parameters.METHODS: Prospective study. A total of 46 patients from 6 to 12mo after mTBI who visited Tianjin Eye Hospital from February to August 2021 were collected. According to the score of the Brain Injury Vision Sympton Survey(BIVSS)Questionnaire, they were divided into the symptomatic group of mTBI(BIVSS total score ≥32, n=24)and the asymptomatic group of mTBI(BIVSS total score &#x003C;32, n=22). In addition, healthy people without mTBI were selected as the control group(n=23). All of the subjects accepted test of oculomotor parameters to evaluate binocular vision.RESULTS: Monocular accommodation amplitude, monocular accommodation facility, the absolute value of phoria at near, BI recovery point of fusional range at near and saccades were different among the three groups(P&#x003C;0.05); There were no significant differences in near point of convergence, the absolute value of distance phoria, BI blur, BO blur and recovery of fusional range at near among the three groups(P&#x003E;0.05). The incidence of accommodative abnormality, convergence abnormality, and saccadic dysfunction were different among the three groups(P&#x003C;0.01). The incidence of accommodative abnormality in the symptomatic group was significantly higher than that in the asymptomatic and control groups(all P&#x003C;0.0167); the incidence of convergence dysfunction in the symptomatic and the asymptomatic groups were higher than that in the control group(all P&#x003C;0.0167); the incidence of saccadic dysfunction in the symptomatic group was significantly higher than that in the asymptomatic and control groups(all P&#x003C;0.0167).CONCLUSION: Accommodation, convergence, and saccades functions in the mTBI symptomatic group were lower, and some of the binocular vision in the asymptomatic group was also affected. It is suggested that mTBI has a long-term impact on oculomotor parameters, and comprehensive oculomotor assessment is necessary for mTBI patients.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To observe the efficacy and safety of CLAE intensive chemotherapy followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with relapsed/refractory acute leukemia (R/R AL).@*METHODS@#CLAE regimen [cladribine 5 mg/(m2·d), d 1-5; cytarabine 1.5 g/(m2·d), d 1-5; etoposide 100 mg/(m2·d), d 3-5] followed by allo-HSCT was used to treat 3 R/R AL patients. The patients received CLAE chemotherapy in relapsed or refractory status and underwent bone marrow puncture to judge myelodysplastic state. After an interval of 3 to 5 days, followed by preconditioning regimen for allo-HSCT [fludarabine 30 mg/(m2·d), d -7 to d -3; busulfan 0.8 mg/kg q6h, d -6 to d -3 or d -5 to d -2. If the bone marrow hyperplasia was not active and the blasts were less than 10%, busulfan should be used for 3 days. If the bone marrow hyperplasia was active and the blasts were more than 10%, busulfan should be used for 4 days]. Cyclosporin A, mycophenolate mofetil and short-term methotrexate were used for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prevention. After transplantation, the status of minimal residual disease (MRD) and bone marrow chimerism were regularly monitored in all 3 patients, and demethylation drugs or dasatinib were used to prevent recurrence 3 months after transplantation.@*RESULTS@#2 patients with t(11;19) translocation and relapse/refractory acute myeloid leukemia recurred within 6 months after induction of remission, and received intensive chemotherapy with CLAE regimen followed by haploidentical allo-HSCT and unrelated donor allo-HSCT, respectively. The two patients both relapsed 6 months after transplantation, then achieved complete remission by donor lymphocyte infusion, interferon, interleukin-2 and other methods, and disease-free survival was 2 years after transplantation. The other patient was chronic myelogenous leukemia who developed acute lymphoblastic leukemia during oral administration of tyrosine kinase inhibitor, accompanied by T315I and E255K mutations in ABL1 kinase region and additional chromosomal abnormalities. After morphological remission by induction chemotherapy, central nervous system leukemia was complicated. Intensive chemotherapy with CLAE regimen followed by sibling allo-HSCT was performed in the positive state of MRD. The patient relapsed 3 months after transplantation, and achieved remission after chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, however, he died 5 months after transplantation because of severe cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and GVHD.@*CONCLUSION@#CLAE regimen followed by allo-HSCT may be an effective salvage treatment option for R/R AL patients to prolong the overall survival.

Objective: To explore the feasibility of moving epidemic method (MEM) in the assessment of seasonal influenza (influenza) activity intensity from the perspective of urban agglomeration, assess influenza activity intensity in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region from 2019 to 2021 and evaluate the reliability of surveillance data and the effectiveness of the MEM model application. Methods: The weekly reported incidence rate (IR) of influenza and the percentage of influenza-like illness (ILI%) from 2011-2021 in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region were collected to establish MEM models respectively. The model fitting effect and the reliability of the two data were evaluated for the purpose of establishing an optimal model to assess the influenza activity intensity in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region from 2019-2021. A cross-validation procedure was used to evaluate the performance of the models by calculating the Youden's index, sensitivity and specificity. Results: The MEM model fitted with weekly ILI% had a higher Youden's index compared with the model fitted with weekly IR at both Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region level and provincial level. The MEM model based on ILI% showed that the epidemic threshold in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region during 2019-2020 was 4.42%, the post-epidemic threshold was 4.66%, with medium, high and very high intensity thresholds as 5.38%, 7.22% and 7.84%, respectively. The influenza season during 2019-2020 had 10 weeks (week 50 of 2019 to week 7 of 2020). The influenza season started in week 50 of 2019, and the intensity fluctuated above and below medium epidemic level for six consecutive weeks. The high intensity was observed in week 4 of 2020, the threshold of very high intensity was excessed in week 5, and the intensity gradually declined and became lower than the threshold at the end of the influenza season in week 8. The epidemic threshold was 4.29% and the post-epidemic threshold was 4.35% during 2020-2021. Influenza activity level never excessed the epidemic threshold throughout the year, and no epidemic period emerged. Conclusions: The MEM model could be applied in the assessment of influenza activity intensity in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region, and the use of ILI% to assess influenza activity intensity in this region was more reliable than IR data. Influenza activity intensity in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region was higher during 2019-2020 but significantly lower in 2020-2021.

Objective: To understand the influence of meteorological factors on the morbidity of influenza in northern cities of China and explore the differences in the influence of meteorological factors on the morbidity of influenza in 15 cities. Methods: The monthly reported morbidity of influenza and monthly meteorological data from 2008 to 2020 were collected in 15 provincial capital cities, including Xi 'an, Lanzhou, Xining, Yinchuan and Urumqi (5 northwestern cities), Beijing, Tianjin, Shijiazhuang, Taiyuan, Hohhot, Ji'nan, Zhengzhou (7 northern cities), Shenyang, Changchun and Harbin (3 northeastern cities). The panel data regression model was applied to conduct quantitative analyze on the influence of meteorological factors on influenza morbidity. Results: The univariate and multivariate panel regression analysis showed that after controlling the population density and other meteorological factors, for each 5 ℃ drop of monthly average temperature, the morbidity change percentage (MCP) of influenza was 11.35%, 34.04% and 25.04% in the 3 northeastern cities, 7 northern cities and 5 northwestern cities, respectively, and the best lag period months was 1, 0 and 1 month; When the monthly average relative humidity decreased by 10%, the MCP was 15.84% in 3 cities in northeastern China and 14.80% in 7 cities in northern China respectively, and the best lag period months was 2 and 1 months respectively; The MCP of 5 cities in northwestern China was 4.50% for each 10 mm reduction of monthly accumulated precipitation, and the best lag period months was 1 month; The MCPs of 3 cities in northeastern China and 5 cities in northwestern China were 4.19% and 5.97% respectively when the accumulated sunshine duration of each month decreased by 10 hours, the best lag period months was 1 month. Conclusions: In northern cities of China from 2008 to 2020, the temperature, relative humidity, precipitation and sunshine duration all had negatively impact on the morbidity of influenza, and temperature and relative humidity were the main sensitive meteorological factors. Temperature had a strong direct impact on the morbidity of influenza in 7 cities in northern China, and relative humidity had a strong lag effect on the morbidity of influenza in 3 cities in northeastern China. The duration of sunshine in 5 cities in northwestern China had a greater impact on the morbidity of influenza compared with 3 cities in northeastern China.

Objective To understand the sanitary status of drinking water quality in stations along Hexi Corridor Railway from 2018 to 2020. Methods Among of 270 samples of drinking water collected by a railway CDC from 2018 to 2020 were detected and analyzed. Results A total of 270 water samples were detected from 2018 to 2020. Among them, 90 water samples were detected in train water supply stations, and 89 were qualified, with a qualified rate of 98.89%. 180 water samples were detected in non-train water supply stations, and 119 samples were qualified, with a qualified rate of 66.11%. The qualified rate of water quality test items in train water supply stations was significantly higher than that in non-train water supply stations (χ2=36.44, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the qualified rate of water quality test items in different years (χ2=2.4,3.01, 0.04, P>0.05). Conclusion The drinking water source of each station along the Hexi Corridor Railway is supplied by deep groundwater. Without adding disinfectant, the total bacterial count, coliform group, Escherichia coli and other indicators of drinking water in all stations meet GB5749-2006 “sanitary standard for drinking water”. This raises a question on the necessity to add disinfectant when deep groundwater is used as drinking water source. However, the train water supply station, which is used as the source of secondary water supply, provides drinking water for railway train passengers. The free residual chlorine in the water after chlorination can continuously kill microorganisms in the water. Therefore, it is necessary to add disinfectant to the source water of the train water supply station.

Objective@#To determine the feasibility and safety of transvaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (vNOTES) in hysterectomy and sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping for endometrial cancer by comparing its SLN detection rate and perioperative outcomes with those of laparoscopic staging. @*Methods@#In this multicenter prospective cohort study, 68 patients with early endometrial cancer between 2020 and 2021 in 2 tertiary referral centers in China were grouped to vNOTES (n=33) or laparoscopy (n=35). All the patients underwent hysterectomy with SLN mapping. @*Results@#The total successful SLN detection was 97.0% in the vNOTES group and 91.4% in the laparoscopy group (p=0.32), whereas the bilateral success rates were 81.8% and 80.0%, respectively (p=0.84). There was no difference in SLN detection observed between the 2 groups regarding the side-specific mapping efficacy quotient (89.4% vs 85.7%; p=0.05). The number of harvested SLNs, the location of SLNs, operative time, estimated blood loss, intraoperative and postoperative complications and hospital cost in the 2 groups were similar (p>0.05), but there were differences in the 2 groups; the one was postoperative exhaust time that was 18 vs. 21 hours (p=0.01), the other was median postoperative hospital stay which was 4 vs. 5 days (p=0.05). @*Conclusion@#This study suggests that lymph node mapping can be completed through the vNOTES procedure. It can ensure effective surgical staging and show the advantages of a fast recovery and good cosmetic effect.

Objectives To investigate the sanitary condition of the secondary water supply for passenger trains in the administration area, to evaluate the influencing factors of the secondary water supply system for passenger trains, and to put forward suggestions for improving the water quality of the secondary water supply for passenger trains. Methods The water quality of secondary water supply of 48 trains of 24 pairs of CRH type passenger trains and 160 trains of 10 pairs of type 22 passenger trains and 30 pairs of type 25 passenger trains in Lanzhou Railway Bureau in 2019 was analyzed and compared. Results The qualification rate of 208 samples tested was 73.08%. The qualification rate of secondary water supply quality of type 22 and 25 passenger trains was 62.50% and 66.67%, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant(χ2=0.23 ,P>0.05). The qualification rate of secondary water supply of CRH passenger train was 97.92%, which was statistically significantly different compared with that of type 22 and 25 passenger trains(χ2=18.40, 18.15, P2=0.056, 0.054, 0.056, 0.22, 0, and 0.22, P>0.05). The total number of bacterial colonies, total coliform, turbidity and iron in the secondary water supply of type 22 and 25 passenger trains did not meet the standard, while only one water sample for the secondary water supply of CRH passenger trains did not meet the standard. Conclusion The quality of secondary water supply of CRH passenger train is obviously better than that of type 22 and 25 passenger trains. Changing the position of defecation port and water injection pipe of type 22 and 25 passenger trains, selecting non direct train defecation collection system, or adding appropriate amount of chlorine disinfectant into the water supply hose can significantly improve the qualification rate of bacteriological indexes of secondary water supply of passenger trains.

To systematically assess the efficacy and safety of Jinqi Jiangtang Tablets for patients with insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes, literatures were retrieved in 7 databases: PubMed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI), WanFang database, Chinese BioMedical Database(CBM), VIP Chinese Science and Technique Journals Database, from the date of its inception up to November 2018. Review Manager 5.3 software was used for risk bias assessment, data synthesis and subgroup analysis. Begg's and Egger's tests were performed for assessing symmetries of funnel plot by software Stata 14.0. GRADE system was used to assess the quality of evidence. A total of 10 trials involving 797 participants were eligible. Compared with Western medicine alone, Jinqi Jiangtang Tablets showed a statistical significance in FBG(WMD=-0.63, 95%CI[-1.00,-0.26]). Jinqi Jiangtang Tablets showed a significant decrease in 2 h BG combined with Western medicine compared with Western medicine alone(WMD=-1.46, 95%CI[-1.71,-1.21], P<0.000 01). Jinqi Jiangtang Tablets combined with Western medicine showed a significant decrease in HbA1 c(WMD=-0.75, 95%CI[-0.97,-0.53], P<0.000 01), FINS(WMD=-0.65, 95%CI[-0.80,-0.50], P<0.000 01), 2 h INS(SMD=-1.67, 95%CI[-2.26,-1.09], P<0.000 01) and HOMA-IR(WMD=-1.22, 95%CI[-1.67,-0.76], P<0.000 01). Jinqi Jiangtang Tablets combined with Western medicine was beneficial for ISI(WMD=1.00, 95%CI[0.84, 1.17], P<0.000 01). Egger's and Begg's test showed no publication bias(P=0.379). Sensitivity analysis showed no impact on the overall results. The GRADE quality of the evidence was low. Despite of the apparently positive results, we cannot draw a rational conclusion that Jinqi Jiangtang Tablets has a positive effect in patients with IR, because of the low evidence grade.

@#【Objective】To investigate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic tympanoplasty for chronic suppurative otitis with large tympanic membrane perforation.【Methods】A total of 110 cases(115 ears)which were diagnosed as chronic suppurative otitis with large tympanic membrane perforation were retrospectively collected from May 2017 to Jan 2019. All cases were performed endoscopic tympanoplasty;including removing tympanic lesions,reconstruction of ossicular chain, and myringoplasty with cartilage and perichondrium complex by underlay technique. At the same time of tympanoplasty , balloon eustachian tuboplasty(BET)was performed in patients who were diagnosed with eustachian tube dysfunction. The graft success rate,pure tone threshold average(PTA)of speech frequency and the air-bone gap(ABG)were assessed at 3 months after surgery.【Results】The primary graft success rate was 95.7%,and the PTA and ABG were(25.7±11.8)dB HL and(13.8 ± 6.9)dB HL,respectively,which showed significant differences compared with pre- operation conditions (P < 0.001). Furthermore,29 ears which were diagnosed with eustachian tube dysfunction were treated with BET at the same time of tympanoplasty. Compared with simply tympanoplasty (86 ears),no difference was found in primary graft success rate ,PTA and ABG post-operation(P > 0.05).【Conclusions】 Endoscopic tympanoplasty is an effective surgery,and the cartilage and perichondrium complex is a reliable repair material for large tympanic membrane perforation ,which are both worthy of clinical promotion. Furthermore ,BET at the same time of tympanoplasty could ensure clinical efficacy for the patients with eustachian tube dysfunction.

CT scan was performed on the experimental animals, and the differences in imaging features between the groups were compared by morphological reading of the tomographic images. CT data were imported into Mimics 14.0 software for 3D modeling. The CT values and lung volumes were calculated by the software, and the differences on CT values and lung volumes brought by different causes of death were analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The CT images of lungs in the drowning group showed characteristic ground-glass opacity (diffuse and uniform density increase). There were no obvious abnormalities in hemorrhagic shock group, and only a few similar changes were found in the mechanical asphyxia group. Compared with the controls, the CT values and the lung volumes in the drowning group were significantly increased P<0.05.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Based on post-mortem lung imaging, the combination of CT value and lung volume changes can effectively reflect the virtual anatomical features in drowning, and provide a diagnostic basis for the forensic identification of drowning.

Objective To investigate the effects of body mass index (BMI) on 24-hour intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuations in adolescences.Methods Totally 90 healthy adolescences were included in the study.Measurements of 24-hour IOP were obtained by Goldmann applanation tonometer on 5:00 am,7:00 am,10 ∶ 00 am,2:00 pm,6:00 pm and 10:00 pm.BMI was calculated as weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters (kg · m-2).The patients were divided into three groups according to BMI,and they were Group 1 (BMI < 25 kg · m-2),Group 2 (25 ≤ BMI < 30kg · m-2),Group 3 (BMI ≥ 30 kg · m-2).Data were analyzed by statistic software SPSS 22.0.Results The mean of IOP,peak IOP,valley IOP and fluctuation value of IOP were (16.72 ±3.30)mmHg (1 kPa =7.5 mmHg),(19.26 ±3.68)mmHg,(14.29 ±3.26)mmHg and (4.98 ± 1.91)mmHg,respectively.And there was no significant differences in the fluctuation value of IOP among the three groups (all P > 0.05);the differences in mean IOP,peak IOP,valley IOP between group 1 and group 3 were significant (all P <0.05).However,the differences between group 1 and group 2,group 2 and group 3 showed no significant differences (all P > 0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that BMI was positively correlated with mean IOP and peak IOP (both P < 0.05).Conclusion In the adolescent population,individuals with higher BMI tend to have higher mean IOP and peak IOP.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of tigecycline-based treatment approach on severe infection of patients with hematological diseases. Methods The clinical data of 64 patients who were treated with tigecycline-based treatment approach for severe infection were retrospectively reviewed. The curative effect was evaluated, meanwhile the drug side effects were observed. Results A total of 51 strains of bacteria were isolated from 64 patients, including 12 extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL)and 15 multi-drug resistant strains and the total effective rate was 59.4%(38/64). Five patients diagnosed as carbapenem resistant infection and were treated with the addition dose of tigecycline and 3 patients relieved. Main adverse events were nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and hepatic dysfunction, but all events were slight. Conclusions Tigecycline-based treatment approach has a good clinical efficacy in treating severe infection of patients with hematological diseases, and the side effect is few.Tigecycline-based treatment approach could be used as a new choice for patients non-responding favorably to conventional anti-infective treatment or multiple resistant bacteria.
