Objective To evaluate the characteristics of dose distribution of neuronal networks in vitro on microelectrode arrays(MEAs)under 2.6 GHz radiofrequency(RF)exposure.Methods The MEAs were coupled with a real-time RF exposure setup,and electromagnetic simulation software was used to calculate the RF dose absorbed in cultured neuronal networks.A fiber-optic temperature probe was used for experimental validation and monitoring of the cell temperature during RF exposure.The MEAs were used to record the electrical activity of neurons.Results For an input power of 1 W,a specific absorption rate(SAR)level of(15.51±2.48)W/kg was calculated,and the variability of the SAR distribution was 16%.In our experimental system,the temperature elevation of neurons was up to 0.15℃for an SAR of 4 W/kg RF exposure.Conclusion The exposure device can provide high SAR efficiency and uniformity in the 2.6 GHz band,which is suitable for studying the real-time effects of RF fields on the electrical activity of neuronal networks in the 5G network band.

Establishment and validation of the Sprague-Dawley rat model of osteoarthritis with kidney deficiency and blood stagnation / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome are common traditional Chinese medicine syndromes observed in knee osteoarthritis,which serve as fundamental pathogenesis factors.There exists a significant connection between the two.Previous studies have demonstrated that kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome effectively contribute to knee joint cartilage degeneration and the progression of knee osteoarthritis.However,the mechanisms underlying the promotion of knee joint cartilage damage remain unclear and require further investigation. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence of kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome on the progression of knee osteoarthritis in Sprague-Dawley rats. METHODS:Sixteen Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups:a model observation group and a control group,with eight rats in each group.Animal models of kidney deficiency were induced by ovary removal in the model observation group,while the control group was given a sham procedure for ovarian removal.Two months after modeling,both groups underwent modified HULTH surgery to induce knee osteoarthritis.One week after modified HULTH surgery,the model observation group was subcutaneously given adrenaline hydrochloride to make blood stasis models,while the control group was subcutaneously given normal saline.At the 5th week after modified HULTH surgery,blood rheology,coagulation parameters,triiodothyronine,tetraiodothyronine,and estradiol levels were measured.Knee joint X-ray images were taken,and knee joint sections were stained with safranin O-fast green,hematoxylin-eosin,and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the control group,the model observation group exhibited significant increases in whole blood viscosity at low,medium,and high shear rates,as well as increased plasma viscosity.Fibronectin levels in the coagulation parameters were significantly increased,while prothrombin time and activated partial thromboplastin time were significantly decreased.Triiodothyronine,tetraiodothyronine,and estradiol levels were all significantly decreased.Radiographic results showed that the model observation group exhibited more severe degree of knee joint space narrowing and surface roughness,with the appearance of high-density shadows.Hematoxylin-eosin and safranin O-fast green staining demonstrated more severe cartilage damage in the model observation group,with significantly higher OARSI and Mankin scores compared with the control group.Compared with the control group,immunohistochemistry results showed a significant reduction in the expression of extracellular matrix type II collagen and aggrecan protein in the cartilage of the model observation group rats.Moreover,there was a significant increase in the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 13 and aggrecanase 5,which are inflammatory factors.These results indicate that the Sprague-Dawley rat model of knee osteoarthritis with kidney deficiency and blood stasis was successfully established.Kidney deficiency and blood stasis syndrome further aggravate cartilage extracellular matrix degradation and cartilage degeneration by promoting the expression of inflammatory factors,thereby promoting the progression of knee osteoarthritis in rats.

Research progress on the correlation between imaging features and the molecular subtype,histopathology,clinical prognosis of ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast / 中国癌症杂志

Ductal carcinoma in situ(DCIS),a pathological type of breast cancer that is limited to the terminal ducts of the breast without breaking through the basement membrane,is considered as the precursor of invasive ductal carcinoma(IDC).When DCIS breaks through the basement membrane and invades surrounding tissues,it can form infiltrating lesions.If the maximum diameter of a single infiltrating lesion is less than 1mm or the maximum diameter of multiple infiltrating lesions is less than 1mm,it is defined as ductal carcinoma in situ with microinvasion(DCIS-Mi).About 12%-40%of untreated and intervened DCIS will progress to IDC,and DCIS and IDC can also coexist.However,there is a considerable portion of DCIS that never progresses with good prognosis.Recently,overdiagnosis and overtreatment of DCIS have become the research hotspots.The histological grade of DCIS is mainly based on the morphology of the nucleus,which is divided into three nuclear levels:low,medium,and high.There are also significant differences in receptor expression and molecular type distribution between DCIS,DCIS-Mi,and IDC.For DCIS with or without microinvasion as well as different histological grades,there are many controversies about the treatment regimen,clinical prognosis and risk.The development of modern imaging technology has achieved preliminary evaluation of histological grading,infiltration status,and prognosis prediction of DCIS.The most commonly used breast imaging techniques in clinical practice currently include mammography(MG),ultrasound(US),and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).The imaging principles of these three techniques are different,and each has its own advantages and disadvantages in breast disease imaging diagnosis.However,they can complement each other and play an important role in disease diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis evaluation.Mammography has the advantages of safety,reliability and good repeatability.It is the preferred screening method for breast cancer recommended by international guidelines.The main manifestations of DCIS on MG can be divided into non calcified lesions and calcified lesions.On US,the main manifestations are lesions and non-lesion type,which can be further divided into hypoechoic changes,calcification,ductal changes,and structural disorders and distortions.MRI has higher sensitivity in detecting DCIS without calcification and multifocal DCIS compared with MG,and has higher accuracy in evaluating the lesion range.However,there are also shortcomings such as low diagnostic specificity and insensitivity to microcalcification display.In addition,radiomics has great potential in the histopathological evaluation,prediction,and guidance of individualized precision treatment of DCIS.In the current era of precision medicine,image features,histopathology,molecular genes,etc.are increasingly significant in predicting the prognosis of breast cancer.The early accurate diagnosis and molecular type of DCIS are also extremely important in clinical work.It has become a consensus in clinical treatment to predict the potential benefits of different treatments through molecular typing,histological grade,and imaging findings,in order to develop the most suitable personalized treatment plan.This article reviewed the correlation between imaging features and the molecular subtype,histopathology and prognosis of DCIS.

To understand Helicobacter pylori's drug resistance,genetic diversity,and relationship with clinical diseases in the Guiyang and Qiannan minority areas of Guizhou Province,we collected samples through endoscopy,and isolated and cul-tured H.pylori.The drug resistance and genotype characteristics were determined.The differences in different regions and dis-ease types were compared,and the structural characteristics of H.pylori and mixed infections with different strains of H.py-lori in Qiannan Prefecture were analyzed.A difference in the composition ratio of EPYIA typing in the cagA variable region was observed between the two areas(P=0.012),and the composition ratio of the vacA genotype differed(P=0.000).A total of 94.6％(53/56)new sequences of H.pylori strains from two regions were obtained by MLST.The rate of infection by H.pylori mixed with different strains was 44.4％in Qiannan Pre-fecture,and no significant difference was observed in the com-position of H.pylori mixed infections among patients with dif-ferent clinical diseases(P=0.349).Differences in EPI YA typ-ing and the vacA genotype composition ratio in the cagA varia-ble region of H.pylori were observed between the Qiannan Prefecture and Guiyang City.

Application value of optical surface monitoring system volume rendering technique body surface imaging in intensity-modulated radiotherapy for thoracic tumors / 肿瘤研究与临床

Objective:To explore the application value of optical surface monitoring system (OSMS) volume rendering technique (VRT) body surface imaging in intensity-modulated radiotherapy for thoracic tumors.Methods:A retrospective case series study was performed. The clinical data of 65 patients with thoracic tumors treated with intensity-modulated radiotherapy at Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from September 2021 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. In the first treatment,after cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) scan and correction, VRT body surface images were obtained by using OSMS. In subsequent treatment, the VRT image was used as the benchmark and the 6-dimensional bed was automatically positioned to record the 6-dimensional bed positioning value. The CBCT scan was performed to record the translation and rotation errors of left-right direction (X-axis), head-foot direction (Y-axis) and front-rear direction (Z-axis). After the calibration of the 6-dimensional automatic bed shifting, the new real-time deltas (RTD) value of digital imaging and communications in medicine (DICOM) body surface image was recorded, and the new VRT image was obtained. CBCT registration error value was defined as VRT image-guided setup error. The sum of CBCT registration error value and moving bed movement value was defined as the body surface marker line-guided setup error. The sum of CBCT registration error value and the recorded DICOM image RTD value was defined as the theoretical error of DICOM image-guided setup. The advantages and disadvantages of VRT image, body surface marker line and DICOM image-guided setup were compared and analyzed.Results:There were 42 males and 23 females in 65 patients with thoracic tumors, and the age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 58 years (51 years, 64 years). The linear errors [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of VRT image-guided setup in X, Y and Z axes were 0.6 mm (0.3 mm, 1.2 mm), 1.2 mm (0.5 mm, 2.4 mm) and 1.1 mm (0.5 mm, 1.9 mm); and the rotational errors were 0.4° (0.1°, 0.7°), 0.4° (0.1°, 0.6°) and 0.4° (0.2°, 0.6°). The linear errors of the marker line-guided setup were 1.6 mm (0.9 mm, 2.6 mm), 2.2 mm (1.1 mm, 3.8 mm) and 1.0 mm (0.4 mm, 1.8 mm); and the rotational errors were 0.7° (0.3°, 1.2°), 0.5° (0.2°, 0.8°) and 0.5° (0.2°, 0.8°). The linear errors of the DICOM image-guided positioning were 1.1 mm (0.6 mm, 1.9 mm), 2.1 mm (1.0 mm, 3.4 mm) and 1.3 mm (0.6 mm, 3.1 mm), and the rotational errors were 0.6° (0.2°, 1.1°), 0.7° (0.3°, 1.1°), 0.7° (0.2°, 1.1°). Compared with the marker line-guided setup, except for Z-axis linear error ( P = 0.218), the VRT-guided setup errors were low (all P < 0.001). Compared with the DICOM imaging-guided setup, the VRT image-guided setup linear error and rotational error in X-, Y- and Z-axis were low (all P < 0.01). Conclusions:VRT image-guided setup is superior to traditional body surface marker setup and DICOM imaging setup; OSMS VRT body surface imaging can effectively improve the setup accuracy and stability of intensity-modulated radiotherapy for thoracic tumors, and reduce the setup errors.

Research progress on association between macrophages and ischemia-reperfusion injury / 器官移植

Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is an extremely complicated pathophysiological process, which may occur during the process of myocardial infarction, stroke, organ transplantation and temporary interruption of blood flow during surgery, etc. As key molecules of immune system, macrophages play a vital role in the pathogenesis of IRI. M1 macrophages are pro-inflammatory cells and participate in the elimination of pathogens. M2 macrophages exert anti-inflammatory effect and participate in tissue repair and remodeling and extracellular matrix remodeling. The balance between macrophage phenotypes is of significance for the outcome and treatment of IRI. This article reviewed the role of macrophages in IRI, including the balance between M1/M2 macrophage phenotype, the mechanism of infiltration and recruitment into different ischemic tissues. In addition, the potential therapeutic strategies of targeting macrophages during IRI were also discussed, aiming to provide reference for alleviating IRI and promoting tissue repair.

Specific DNA barcodes screening, germplasm resource identification, and genetic diversity analysis of Platycodon grandiflorum / 药学学报

Platycodonis Radix is the dry root of Platycodon grandiflorum of Campanulaceae, which has a variety of pharmacological effects and is a commonly used bulk Chinese medicine. In this study, the chloroplast genome sequences of six P. grandiflorum from different producing areas has been sequenced with Illumina HiSeq X Ten platform. The specific DNA barcodes were screened, and the germplasm resources and genetic diversity were analyzed according to the specific barcodes. The total length of the chloroplast genome of 6 P. grandiflorum samples was 172 260-172 275 bp, and all chloroplast genomes showed a typical circular tetrad structure and encoded 141 genes. The comparative genomics analysis and results of amplification efficiency demonstrated that trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF were the potential specific DNA barcodes for identification the germplasm resources of P. grandiflorum. A total of 305 P. grandiflorum samples were collected from 15 production areas in 9 provinces, for which the fragments of trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF were amplificated and the sequences were analyzed. The results showed that trnG-UCC and ndhG_ndhF have 5 and 11 mutation sites, respectively, and 5 and 7 haplotypes were identified, respectively. The combined analysis of the two sequences formed 13 haplotypes (named Hap1-Hap13), and Hap4 is the main genotype, followed by Hap1. The unique haplotypes possessed by the three producing areas can be used as DNA molecular tags in this area to distinguish from the germplasm resources of P. grandiflorum from other areas. The haplotype diversity, nucleotide diversity and genetic distance were 0.94, 4.79×10-3 and 0.000 0-0.020 3, respectively, suggesting that the genetic diversity was abundant and intraspecific kinship was relatively close. This study laid a foundation for the identification of P. grandiflorum, the protection and utilization of germplasm resources, and molecular breeding.

Specific DNA barcodes, germplasm resources, and genetic diversity of Eleutherococcus senticosus / 中国中药杂志

Eleutherococcus senticosus is one of the Dao-di herbs in northeast China. In this study, the chloroplast genomes of three E. senticosus samples from different genuine producing areas were sequenced and then used for the screening of specific DNA barcodes. The germplasm resources and genetic diversity of E. senticosus were analyzed basing on the specific DNA barcodes. The chloroplast genomes of E. senticosus from different genuine producing areas showed the total length of 156 779-156 781 bp and a typical tetrad structure. Each of the chloroplast genomes carried 132 genes, including 87 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNAs, and 8 rRNAs. The chloroplast genomes were relatively conserved. Sequence analysis of the three chloroplast genomes indicated that atpI, ndhA, ycf1, atpB-rbcL, ndhF-rpl32, petA-psbJ, psbM-psbD, and rps16-psbK can be used as specific DNA barcodes of E. senticosus. In this study, we selected atpI and atpB-rbcL which were 700-800 bp and easy to be amplified for the identification of 184 E. senticosus samples from 13 genuine producing areas. The results demonstrated that 9 and 10 genotypes were identified based on atpI and atpB-rbcL sequences, respectively. Furthermore, the two barcodes identified 23 genotypes which were named H1-H23. The haplotype with the highest proportion and widest distribution was H10, followed by H2. The haplotype diversity and nucleotide diversity were 0.94 and 1.82×10~(-3), respectively, suggesting the high genetic diversity of E. senticosus. The results of the median-joining network analysis showed that the 23 genotypes could be classified into 4 categories. H2 was the oldest haplotype, and it served as the center of the network characterized by starlike radiation, which suggested that population expansion of E. senticosus occurred in the genuine producing areas. This study lays a foundation for the research on the genetic quality and chloroplast genetic engineering of E. senticosus and further research on the genetic mechanism of its population, providing new ideas for studying the genetic evolution of E. senticosus.

Exploration of family rehabilitation model for children with scar contracture after hand burns / 中华烧伤杂志

Objective: To explore the family rehabilitation model for children with scar contracture after hand burns and observe its efficacy. Methods: A retrospective non-randomized controlled study was conducted. From March 2020 to March 2021, 30 children with scar contracture after deep partial-thickness to full-thickness burns of hands, who met the inclusion criteria, were hospitalized in the Burn Center of PLA of the First Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University. According to the rehabilitation model adopted, 18 children (23 affected hands) were included in a group mainly treated by family rehabilitation (hereinafter referred to as family rehabilitation group), and 12 children (15 affected hands) were included in another group mainly treated by hospital rehabilitation (hereinafter referred to as hospital rehabilitation group). In the former group, there were 11 males and 7 females, aged (4.8±2.1) years, who began rehabilitation treatment (3.1±0.8) d after wound healing; in the latter group, there were 7 males and 5 females, aged (4.6±2.1) years, who began rehabilitation treatment (2.8±0.7) d after wound healing. The children in hospital rehabilitation group mainly received active and passive rehabilitation training in the hospital, supplemented by independent rehabilitation training after returning home; after 1-2 weeks of active and passive rehabilitation training in the hospital, the children in family rehabilitation group received active and passive rehabilitation training at home under the guidance of rehabilitation therapists through WeChat platform. Both groups of children were treated for 6 months. During the treatment, they wore pressure gloves and used hand flexion training belts and finger splitting braces. Before treatment and after 6 months of treatment, the modified Vancouver scar scale, the total active movement of the hand method, and Carroll quantitative test of upper extremity function were used to score/rate the scar of the affected hand (with the difference of scar score between before treatment and after treatment being calculated), the joint range of motion (with excellent and good ratio being calculated), and the function of the affected limb, respectively. Data were statistically analyzed with independent sample t test, equivalence test, Fisher's exact probability test, and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: The differences of scar scores of the affected hands of children in family rehabilitation group and hospital rehabilitation group between after 6 months of treatment and those before treatment were 3.0 (2.0, 7.0) and 3.0 (2.0, 8.0) respectively (with 95% confidence interval of 2.37-5.38 and 1.95-5.91). The 95% confidence interval of the difference between the differences of the two groups was -2.43-2.21, which was within the equivalent boundary value of -3-3 (P<0.05). The excellent and good ratios of joint range of motion of the affected hand of children in family rehabilitation group and hospital rehabilitation group were 3/23 and 2/15 respectively before treatment, and 15/23 and 12/15 respectively after 6 months of treatment. The ratings of joint range of motion of the affected hand of children in family rehabilitation group and hospital rehabilitation group after 6 months of treatment were significantly higher than those before treatment (with Z values of 3.58 and 2.30, respectively, P<0.05), but the ratings of joint range of motion of the affected hand between the two groups were similar before treatment and after 6 months of treatment (with Z values of 0.39 and 0.55, respectively, P>0.05). The functional ratings of the affected limbs of children in family rehabilitation group and hospital rehabilitation group after 6 months of treatment were significantly higher than those before treatment (with Z values of 3.98 and 3.51, respectively, P<0.05), but the functional ratings of the affected limbs between the two groups were similar before treatment and after 6 months of treatment (with Z values of 1.27 and 0.38, respectively, P>0.05). Conclusions: The WeChat platform assisted rehabilitation treatment with mainly family rehabilitation, combined with hand flexion and extension brace can effectively reduce the scarring after children's hand burns, improve the joint range of motion of the affected hands, and promote the recovery of affected limb function. The effect is similar to that of hospital-based rehabilitation providing an optional rehabilitation, treatment method for children who cannot continue to receive treatment in hospital.

Application progress of high-throughput sequencing in antiphospholipid syndrome / 中华预防医学杂志

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is characterized by arterial and venous thrombosis and(or) morbid pregnancy, accompanied by persistent antiphospholipid antibody (aPL) positivity. However, due to the complex pathogenesis of APS and the large individual differences in the expression of aPL profiles of patients, the problem of APS diagnosis, prognosis judgment and risk assessment may not be solved only from antibody level. It is necessary to use new technologies and multiple dimensions to explore novel APS biomarkers. The application of next generation sequencing (NGS) technology in diseases with high incidence of somatic mutations, such as genetic diseases and tumors, has been very mature. Thus, gradually understanding the research and application progress of APS by NGS technology from genome, transcriptome, epigenome and other aspects is meaningful. This article reviews the related research of NGS technology in APS, and provide more reference for the deep understanding of the APS-related screening markers and disease pathogenesis.

Effect of opioid-sparing analgesia on incidence of sepsis in severely burned patients: a retrospective cohort study / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the effects of opioid-sparing analgesia on the incidence of sepsis in severely burned patients in the retrospective cohort study.Methods:The clinical data from patients with severe burns admitted to three teaching hospitals in Guangdong from 2011 to 2020 were retrospectively extracted and analyzed. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the analgesic regimen within 30 days after injury: continuous opioids analgesia group (continuous opioid infusion at a relative constant rate for more than 72 h) and opioid-sparing analgesia group (patient-controlled intravenous analgesia/intermittent administration/opioid-free analgesia). Patient′s age, severity of burn, inhalation injury and basal pain score at rest were matched by the propensity score at a 1∶1 ratio. The primary outcome measure was the occurrence of sepsis within 90 days of admission. Secondary outcome measures included 30-day and 90-day all-cause mortality, clinical diagnosis of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, and prevalence of burn wound infection. The amount of opioid used was also recorded.Results:A total of 328 severely burned patients were finally enrolled, with 145 patients in continuous opioid analgesia group and 183 patients in opioid-sparing analgesia group, and 110 pairs of patients (220 cases) were finally matched by the propensity score.Compared with continuous opioid analgesia group, the total consumption of opioid, daily consumption per analgesia, and consumption per burn area were significantly decreased, and the incidence of sepsis and wound infection was decreased( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, 30-day and 90-day all-cause mortality in opioid-sparing analgesia group( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the continuous opioid analgesia regimen, opioid-sparing analgesia can reduce the risk of sepsis in severely burned patients.

Expression and role of angiopoietin-like protein 4 signaling pathway in rats with adenine- induced chronic kidney disease / 中华肾脏病杂志

Objective:To observe the expression of angiopoietin-like protein 4 (ANGPTL4) signaling pathway in adenine-induced chronic kidney disease (CKD) rat model, and to explore the role of this pathway in renal fibrosis.Methods:Thirty-six male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into control group (saline, intragastric administration, n=15) and CKD group (250 mg·kg -1·d -1 2.5% adenine, intragastric administration, n=21). At the end of the 1st, 2nd and 4th week, 5 rats were randomly selected from each group. Renal function and 24-hour urinary protein quantity were measured. HE and Masson staining were used to observe the pathological changes of kidneys. Immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR were used to detect renal protein and mRNA expressions of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), ANGPTL4, bone morphogenetic protein 7 (BMP7), Smad1, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and type Ⅰ collagen (Col-Ⅰ). Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the different indicators. Results:(1) Compared with the control group, the expression levels of serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen in CKD group were higher at each time point, and the expression levels of 24-hour urinary protein quantity were higher at the end of the 2nd and 4th week (all P < 0.05). (2) HE and Masson staining showed that there were obvious renal structural disorders and collagen fiber deposition at each time point in CKD group compared with the control group, which got worse with time. (3) The results of immunohistochemistry and real-time PCR showed that compared with the control group, the protein and mRNA expression levels of ANGPTL4, α-SMA and Col-Ⅰ were higher, while the protein and mRNA expression levels of BMP7 and Smad1 were lower at the end of the 1st, 2nd and 4th week, and the protein and mRNA expression levels of HIF-1α were higher at the end of 2nd and 4th week in CKD group (all P < 0.05). (4) Correlation analysis results showed that HIF-1α and ANGPTL4 mRNA expression were positively correlated with α-SMA mRNA ( r=0.919, P < 0.001; r=0.757, P < 0.001), and also positively correlated with Col-Ⅰ mRNA ( r=0.925, P < 0.001; r=0.777, P < 0.001). HIF-1α mRNA expression was positively correlated with ANGPTL4 mRNA ( r=0.766, P < 0.001). There were significant negative correlations between HIF-1α, ANGPTL4 mRNA and BMP7 mRNA ( r=-0.652, P < 0.001; r=-0.741, P < 0.001). Conclusions:ANGPTL4 signaling pathway may be activated in adenine-induced CKD rat model, and involved in the renal fibrosis process of CKD.

Feasibility of Free-Breathing, Non-ECG-Gated, Black-Blood Cine Magnetic Resonance Images With Multitasking in Measuring Left Ventricular Function Indices

Objective@#To clinically validate the feasibility and accuracy of cine images acquired through the multitasking method, with no electrocardiogram gating and free-breathing, in measuring left ventricular (LV) function indices by comparing them with those acquired through the balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) method, with multiple breath-holds and electrocardiogram gating. @*Materials and Methods@#Forty-three healthy volunteers (female:male, 30:13; mean age, 23.1 ± 2.3 years) and 36 patients requiring an assessment of LV function for various clinical indications (female:male, 22:14; 57.8 ± 11.3 years) were enrolled in this prospective study. Each participant underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using the multiple breath-hold bSSFP method and free-breathing multitasking method. LV function parameters were measured for both MRI methods. Image quality was assessed through subjective image quality scores (1 to 5) and calculation of the contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) between the myocardium and blood pool. Differences between the two MRI methods were analyzed using the Bland–Altman plot, paired t-test, or Wilcoxon signed-rank test, as appropriate. @*Results@#LV ejection fraction (LVEF) was not significantly different between the two MRI methods (P = 0.222 in healthy volunteers and P = 0.343 in patients). LV end-diastolic mass was slightly overestimated with multitasking in both healthy volunteers (multitasking vs. bSSFP, 60.5 ± 10.7 g vs. 58.0 ± 10.4 g, respectively; P < 0.001) and patients (69.4 ± 18.1 g vs. 66.8 ± 18.0 g, respectively; P = 0.003). Acceptable and comparable image quality was achieved for both MRI methods (multitasking vs. bSSFP, 4.5 ± 0.7 vs. 4.6 ± 0.6, respectively; P = 0.203). The CNR between the myocardium and blood pool showed no significant differences between the two MRI methods (18.89 ± 6.65 vs. 18.19 ± 5.83, respectively; P = 0.480). @*Conclusion@#Multitasking-derived cine images obtained without electrocardiogram gating and breath-holding achieved similar image quality and accurate quantification of LVEF in healthy volunteers and patients.

Nutritional risk and malnutrition in patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumors in day wards:a cross-sectional analysis / 肠外与肠内营养

Objective:This study investigated the nutritional risk and malnutrition of patients with digestive system malignant tumors in the day ward and evaluated the risk of comorbidity with nutritional risk and the risk factors of malnutrition in this population.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to collect patients with malignant tumors of the digestive system who were admitted to the day ward of our hospital from November 23,2020,to December 14,2020.The Nutritional Risk Screening Form(NRS 2002)was used for nutritional risk screening,and the Subjective Assessment of Overall Nutritional Status(PG-SGA)was used to assess malnutrition,to investigate nutritional risk and prevalence of malnutrition,and to analyze potential influencing factors.Results:Among the 464 patients with malignant tumors of the digestive system in the day ward,the incidence of nutritional risk was 26.9％,the incidence of malnutrition was 34.7％,and the incidence of severe malnutrition was 14.2％.Multivariate analysis showed that patients with Karnofsky Performance Status(KPS)score＜90 and hypoproteinemia were more likely to have nutritional risk(P＜0.05).Patients with KPS score＜90 and chemotherapy cycles＞6 were more likely to be malnourished(P＜0.05).Conclusions:Digestive system malignant tumor patients in the day ward still have a high proportion of nutritional risks and malnutrition.For patients with KPS score＜90,hypoalbuminemia,and chemotherapy cycles＞6,nutrition issues should be given special attention.

Evaluation of intervention effect of health education on overweight and obesity among middle school students in Guangzhou / 中国学校卫生

Objective@#To explore the effect of the comprehensive intervention on overweight and obesity among middle school students at the population level (health education lecture and official account push) and individual level (personalized dietary guidance), so as to provide a reference for preventing and controlling their overweight and obesity.@*Methods@#Three junior high schools and three senior high schools were randomly selected in Guangzhou in 2018 by convenience sampling. Through physical examination, 1 457 overweight and obese students aged from 12 to 18 years old were screened. Intervention was administered through "Student Personalized Dietary Guidance" manual, health tweets on the official accounts, and health education lectures from September 2018 to December 2019. The Chi square test was used to compare the difference in overweight and obesity constituent ratio between the two groups before and after the intervention. And intervention effect was evaluated by analyzing the number needed to treated(NTT).@*Results@#The proportion of overweight before the intervention was 66.71% (972/1 457), and decreased to 59.92% (873/1 457) after the intervention; the proportion of obesity before the intervention was 33.29% (485/1 457), which decreased to 26.63% (388/1 457) after the intervention. Among obese students, the smallest NNT was seen in the girl group aged 12-13 years (NNT=2.6, 95% CI =1.9-4.1), while the largest NNT in the boy group aged 14-18 years (NNT=5.9, 95% CI =4.7-8.1). The NNT of the girls aged 12-13 years was the smallest (NNT=2.7, 95% CI =2.2-3.5), and the NNT of the boys aged 14-18 years was the largest (NNT=7.4, 95% CI =6.0-9.7).@*Conclusion@#Health education at population level (health education lectures, official account push) with individual level (personalized dietary guidance) can effectively intervene overweight and obesity among middle school students in Guangzhou.

Study on biological basis of primary dysmenorrhea based in different progressive stages based on untargeted metabolomics / 中国药理学通报

Aim To explore its potential biological basis and the endogenous metabolic characteristics of urine during the formation of primary dysmenorrhea via untargeted urine metabolomics. Methods Twenty SD rats were randomly divided into control group and model group. The primary dysmenorrhea model was reproduced by estradiol benzoate combined with oxytocin, and the contrrol group took food and water freely. The differential metabolites and core metabolic pathways were found by multivariable pattern recognition method combined with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. The receiver operating characteristic ( ROC ) curve was drawn by metaboanalyst 5.0 platform to evaluate the clinical diagnostic efficacy of core metabolites. Results A total of 46 metabolites with significant differences, such as hippuric acid, phenylacetaldehyde, prostaglandin G2, 6-hydroxy-5-methoxyindole glucuronide, were screened, mainly involving phenylalanine metabolism, pentose and glucuronate interconversions, and arachidonic acid metabolism. ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of four core biomarkers was greater than 0.7. Conclusions Different metabolic maps are presented in different progressive stages of primary dysmenorrhea, mainly involving the disorders of fatty acid metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism and amino acid metabolism. Meanwhile, the extracted characteristic bi¬omarkers have high diagnostic value for the evaluation of primary dysmenorrhea.
