High mobility group box-1 inhibition reduces expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in astrocytes in rats after spinal cord injury / 中华创伤骨科杂志

Objective:To investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of inhibiting high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) in the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in spinal cord astrocytes (AS) in rats after spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods:After an SCI model was established in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats using a modified Allen's Weight-Dropping method and ethyl pyruvate (EP) or glycyrrhizin (GL) was used to inhibit the effect of HMGB1, the rats were divided into a sham group, an SCI group, an SCI+EP (50 mg/kg) group, and an SCI+GL (100 mg/kg) group. The expression levels of glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP) and MMP-9 in spinal cord AS were observed. After the spinal cord AS in SD rats was cultured and incubated by the oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) procedure, the expression of MMP-9 protein was detected at 6 h/R 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h after OGD. The time point with the highest expression was chosen in the subsequent experiments as an OGD/R group. HMGB1 was inhibited by HMGB1 shRNA or EP to observe the effect of HMGB1 on the expression of MMP-9 protein in AS treated with OGD/R. Then, toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) inhibitor, TIR-domain-containing adaptor inducing interferon- β (TRIF) inhibitor, and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF- κB) inhibitor were used to investigate the effects of TLR4/TRIF/NF- κB signaling pathway during the regulation of HMGB1 on MMP-9 in vitro. Results:Western blot showed that the expression of MMP-9 protein in the spinal cord was significantly increased in rats at 1 d after SCI, and the expression of MMP-9 protein in the SCI+EP group and the SCI+GL group was significantly lower than that in the SCI group ( P<0.001). Immunofluorescence showed that GFAP and MMP-9 proteins were co-localized in the spinal cord after SCI, and the expression of GFAP and MMP-9 proteins in the SCI+EP and SCI+GL groups was significantly lower than that in the SCI group ( P<0.05). Since the expression of MMP-9 protein in the spinal cord AS cultured in vitro was significantly higher in the OGD 6h/R 12h group than that in the normal group and the OGD 6h/R 6h, 24, and 48 h groups, the OGD 6h/R 12h was taken as the OGD/R group. The MMP-9 protein expression in AS in the OGD/R+HMGB1 shRNA group and the OGD/R+EP group was significantly lower than that in the OGD/R group ( P<0.001). In the cultured AS, moreover, inhibiting TLR4, TRIF, and NF- κB reduced MMP-9 protein expression after OGD 6 h/R 12 h when compared with that in the OGD/R group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:HMGB1 inhibition may result in a reduction in MMP-9 expression both in the spinal cord AS in SCI rats and in AS after OGD/R treatment in vitro. HMGB1 may regulate MMP-9 protein expression in AS after OGD/R treatment via the TLR4/TRIF/NF- κB signal pathway.

Neuroprotective and mechanistic study of GJ-4 on okadaic acid-induced memory impairment in mice / 药学学报

GJ-4 is crocin enrichments extracted from Gardenia jasminoides J. Ellis, and our previous studies have shown that GJ-4 significantly improved learning and memory impairment induced by Aβ in mice. Herein, a memory deficit model was developed by injecting okadaic acid (OA) into the lateral ventricle of mice, and the neuroprotection and underlying mechanism of GJ-4 on neuronal injury caused by Tau hyperphosphorylation were investigated. The Animal Care & Welfare Committee, Institute of Materia Medica, CAMS & PUMC has approved all procedures (No.00000318). GJ-4 at different doses was intragastric administration to mice for 16 days. Step-down test and Morris water maze test showed that GJ-4 could significantly improve OA-induced memory impairment in mice, and reduced the loss of Nissl bodies in the hippocampus of mice. GJ-4 could also decrease the phosphorylation level of Tau protein at Ser396, Thr231 and Ser404 via increasing protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) activity and inhibiting glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) activity. Besides, further researches indicated that GJ-4 could inhibit the level of oxidative stress in the brain of OA mice, reduce neuronal apoptosis and inhibit the neuroinflammation mediated by activation of astrocytes in the hippocampus of mice, and eventually achieve its effects in improving learning and memory impairment in mice. According to these findings, we anticipated that GJ-4 might be a potential therapeutic drug for Alzheimer's disease.

Comparison of the effect between night-wearing orthokeratology lens and frame glasses on the treatment of juvenile myopia / 国际眼科杂志(Guoji Yanke Zazhi)

AIM: To compare the effects of night-wearing orthokeratology lenses and frame glasses on the treatment of juvenile myopia, and provide reference for the selection of myopia treatment methods in adolescents.METHODS: A prospective study was conducted on 106 adolescent myopia patients who received treatment in our hospital from June to November 2020. According to the wishes of patients, they were divided into two groups with 53 cases in each group. The control group was given regular frame glasses after optometry, while the observation group was given night-wearing orthokeratology lenses. The uncorrected visual acuity(LogMAR), refractive index(spherical equivalent and cylindrical lens power), and ocular biological parameters(axial length, central corneal thickness, anterior chamber depth and lens thickness)were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: The uncorrected visual acuity(LogMAR)of the observation group was lower than that of the control group at 1a after treatment(0.51±0.12 vs. 0.73±0.15), and the spherical equivalent(-0.23±0.05 vs. -5.32±1.35D)and cylindrical lens power(-1.53±0.22 vs. -1.97±0.35DC)were smaller than those of the control group(P&#x0026;#x003C;0.001). The axial length of the eyes in the two groups increased at 1a after treatment and the axial length in the control group was longer(25.53±0.84 vs. 25.95±0.83 mm); the lens thickness of the observation group was increased compared with that before treatment(3.39±0.19 vs. 3.31±0.15 mm; P&#x0026;#x003C;0.05). After 1a treatment, the accommodative amplitude(14.29±1.37 vs. 12.90±1.07D), accommodative facility(11.05±2.09 vs. 7.59±1.82cpm), and total staining rate of corneal epithelium in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(15.1% vs. 1.9%), and the accommodative lag was lower than that in the control group(0.55±0.11 vs. 0.97±0.30D; P&#x0026;#x003C;0.05). There were no significant differences in corneal cell density(3197.23±249.66 vs. 3207.41±258.14 cells/mm2), corneal endothelial cell area(309.27±28.04 vs. 312.62±24.95mm2)and the incidence of complications between the two groups before and after treatment(5.7% vs. 9.4%; P&#x0026;#x003E;0.05).CONCLUSION: Night-wearing orthokeratology lenses can improve uncorrected visual acuity in adolescent patients with myopia, reduce the spherical equivalent and cylindrical lens power, and improve the accommodation-related parameters, but has no significant effect on the corneal function.

Excess Oxygen Supply for Different Time Periods Affect Energy Metabolism in Rat Alveolar Epithelial Type Ⅱ Cells / 中国医学科学院学报

Objective To observe the effect of excess oxygen supply for different time periods on the mitochondrial energy metabolism in alveolar epithelial type Ⅱ cells. Methods Rat RLE-6TN cells were assigned into a control group (21% O2 for 4 h) and excess oxygen supply groups (95% O2 for 1,2,3,and 4 h,res-pectively).The content of adenosine triphosphate (ATP),the activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complex V,and the mitochondrial membrane potential were determined by luciferase assay,micro-assay,and fluorescent probe JC-1,respectively.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was employed to determine the mRNA levels of NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1 (ND1),cytochrome b (Cytb),cytochrome C oxidase subunit I (COXI),and adenosine triphosphatase 6 (ATPase6) in the core subunits of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes Ⅰ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ,and Ⅴ,respectively. Results Compared with the control group,excess oxygen supply for 1,2,3,and 4 h down-regulated the mRNA levels of ND1 (q=24.800,P<0.001;q=13.650,P<0.001;q=9.869,P<0.001;q=20.700,P<0.001),COXI (q=16.750,P<0.001;q=10.120,P<0.001;q=8.476,P<0.001;q=14.060,P<0.001),and ATPase6 (q=22.770,P<0.001;q=15.540,P<0.001;q=12.870,P<0.001;q=18.160,P<0.001).Moreover,excess oxygen supply for 1 h and 4 h decreased the ATPase activity (q=9.435,P<0.001;q=11.230,P<0.001) and ATP content (q=5.615,P=0.007;q=5.029,P=0.005).The excess oxygen supply for 2 h and 3 h did not cause significant changes in ATPase activity (q=0.156,P=0.914;q=3.197,P=0.116) and ATP content (q=0.859,P=0.557;q=1.273,P=0.652).There was no significant difference in mitochondrial membrane potential among the groups (F=0.303,P=0.869). Conclusion Short-term excess oxygen supply down-regulates the expression of the core subunits of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes and reduces the activity of ATPase,leading to the energy metabolism disorder of alveolar epithelial type Ⅱ cells.

Construction and validation of a nomogram prediction model of fatty liver occurrence in postoperative breast cancer patients after endocrine therapy / 肿瘤研究与临床

Objective:To explore the risk factors of fatty liver occurrence in postoperative breast cancer patients after endocrine therapy, and establish a risk prediction model.Methods:A total of 120 breast cancer patients who received endocrine therapy after surgery in Huanggang Central Hospital from June 2014 to June 2016 were retrospectively selected, and another 120 breast cancer patients who did not receive endocrine therapy after surgery in the same period were selected as the control group. The difference of prognosis between patients treated with endocrine therapy or not was compared. According to the occurrence of fatty liver after endocrine therapy, the patients were divided into fatty liver group (63 cases) and non-fatty liver group (57 cases). Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of fatty liver occurrence after endocrine therapy. Based on the risk factors, R 3.3.2 software was used to establish a nomogram prediction model. The Harrell consistency index and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (with imageological diagnosis as the "gold standard") were used to analyze the effect of the model on predicting the occurrence of fatty liver, and the calibration curve was used to evaluate the consistency between the model prediction and the actual situation.Results:The recurrence and metastasis rate and mortality rate of patients with endocrine therapy were lower than those of patients without endocrine therapy, and the 3-year and 5-year disease-free survival rates and overall survival rates were higher than those of patients without endocrine therapy (all P < 0.05). Compared with the non-fatty liver group, the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), total bilirubin (TBIL), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and body mass index (BMI) in the fatty liver group increased (all P < 0.05), while the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) decreased ( P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased ALT [ OR = 4.680 (95% CI 3.621-5.738)], AST [ OR = 4.862 (95% CI 3.809-5.914)], TBIL [ OR = 3.808 (95 % CI 2.754-4.861)], TC [ OR = 4.294 (95% CI 3.320-5.267)], TG [ OR = 3.401 (95% CI 2.442-4.359)], LDL-C [ OR = 2.976 (95% CI 2.037-3.916)], BMI [ OR = 4.082 (95% CI 3.118-5.045)] and decreased HDL-C [ OR = 0.930 (95% CI 0.876-0.983)] were independent risk factors for fatty liver occurrence after endocrine therapy (all P < 0.05). The consistency index of the nomogram model was 0.792 (95% CI 0.721-0.863), and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the nomogram model to judge the occurrence of fatty liver was 0.810 (95% CI 0.734-0.886), indicating that the model had a good discrimination between fatty liver and non-fatty liver. The evaluation of calibration curve showed that the nomogram model for prediction of fatty liver had a good consistency with the actual occurrence of fatty liver. Conclusions:Increased ALT, AST, TBIL, TC, TG, LDL-C, BMI and decreased HDL-C are risk factors for fatty liver occurrence after endocrine therapy in postoperative breast cancer patients. The nomogram model based on risk factors has a good effect on predicting the occurrence of fatty liver.

Protein Kinase C Controls the Excitability of Cortical Pyramidal Neurons by Regulating Kv2.2 Channel Activity / 神经科学通报·英文版

The family of voltage-gated potassium Kv2 channels consists of the Kv2.1 and Kv2.2 subtypes. Kv2.1 is constitutively highly phosphorylated in neurons and its function relies on its phosphorylation state. Whether the function of Kv2.2 is also dependent on its phosphorylation state remains unknown. Here, we investigated whether Kv2.2 channels can be phosphorylated by protein kinase C (PKC) and examined the effects of PKC-induced phosphorylation on their activity and function. Activation of PKC inhibited Kv2.2 currents and altered their steady-state activation in HEK293 cells. Point mutations and specific antibodies against phosphorylated S481 or S488 demonstrated the importance of these residues for the PKC-dependent modulation of Kv2.2. In layer II pyramidal neurons in cortical slices, activation of PKC similarly regulated native Kv2.2 channels and simultaneously reduced the frequency of action potentials. In conclusion, this study provides the first evidence to our knowledge that PKC-induced phosphorylation of the Kv2.2 channel controls the excitability of cortical pyramidal neurons.

China experts' consensus on preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatments of malocclusions of children / 华西口腔医学杂志

Malocclusion is one of the three most common oral diseases reported by World Health Organization(WHO). In China, its incidence rate is rising. Malocclusion seriously affects the dental and maxillofacial function, facial appearance and growth development of nearly 260 million children in China, and what is more, it affects their physical and mental health development. Malocclusion occurrence is related to genetic and environmental factors. Early treatment of malocclusion can create a good dental and maxillofacial development environment, correct abnormal growth and control the adverse effects of abnormal genetic factors. It can effectively reduce the prevalence of children's malocclusion and enhance their physical and mental health. This is an urgent need from the economic perspective of our society, so it has great practical and social significance. Experts from the project group "standard diagnose and treatment protocols for early orthodontic intervention of malocclusions of children" which initiated by China National Health Institute of Hospital Administration wrote the "China Experts' Consensus on Preventive and Interceptive Orthodontic Treatments of Malocclusions of Children", which aims to guide and popularize the clinical practice, improve the clinical theory and practice level, and accelerate the disciplinary development of early treatment of children's malocclusion in China. The consensus elaborates the harmfulness of malocclusion and the necessity of early treatment, and brings up the principles and fundamental contents. Based on the law of dental and maxillofacial development, this paper puts forward the guiding suggestions of preventive and interceptive treatments in different stages of dental development ranging from fetus to early permanent dentition. It is a systematic project to promote and standardize the early treatment of malocclusion. Through scientific and comprehensive stratified clinical practice and professional training, the clinical system of early treatment of malocclusion in China will eventually be perfected, so as to comprehensively care for children's dental and maxillofacial health, and improve their oral and physical health in China.

Fever for 2 months and disturbance of consciousness for 1 week in a preschool-aged girl / 中国当代儿科杂志

Rapid-onset obesity with hypothalamic dysfunction, hypoventilation, and autonomic dysregulation syndrome (ROHHADS) is a rare multi-system disease, and delayed diagnosis and treatment may lead to catastrophic cardiopulmonary complications. As far as we know, no patient with ROHHADS has been reported in China, and this article reports a child with ROHHADS to improve the awareness of this disease among clinicians. A girl, aged 3 years, had the clinical manifestations of rapid weight gain, fever, disturbance of consciousness, and convulsion. The physical examination showed a body weight of 20 kg, somnolence, irregular breathing, and stiff neck. She had increased blood levels of prolactin and follicle-stimulating hormone and hyponatremia. The lumbar puncture showed an increased intracranial pressure. The brain MRI and magnetic resonance venography showed symmetrical lesions in the periventricular region and venous thrombosis in the right transverse sinus and the superior sagittal sinus. The sleep monitoring showed hypopnea. The girl was finally diagnosed with ROHHADS and intracranial venous thrombosis. She recovered after symptomatic treatment including decreasing intracranial pressure, anticoagulation, and respiratory support. The possibility of ROHHADS should be considered for patients with unexplained obesity, fever, and hypoventilation, with or without central nervous system symptoms. Early diagnosis and standardized follow-up can improve the prognosis of children with ROHHADS.

Epidemiological and clinical features of children with mild coronavirus disease 2019 / 中国当代儿科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To study the epidemiological and clinical features of children with mild coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).@*METHODS@#The children who were diagnosed with mild COVID-19 in the Wuchang Shelter Hospital in Wuhan from February 5 to March 10, 2020 were enrolled as subjects. The clinical, laboratory, and lung imaging data were collected during hospitalization and isolation. This was a retrospective single-center case series analysis.@*RESULTS@#A total of 1 124 patients with mild COVID-19 were admitted from February 5 to March 10, 2020, including 13 children (1.16%). All the 13 children (7 boys and 6 girls) were residents of Wuhan in China, with a median age of 16 years (range: 10-18 years). Of all the 13 children, 9(69%) were from family clusters of COVID-19 and 4(31%) had unknown sources of infection. The mean time from exposure to onset was 6.8 days (range: 2-13 days) in 9 children with a definite history of exposure. There were 6 symptomatic children with the main manifestations of fever, cough, weakness, and myalgia, and the mean time from onset to hospitalization was 9.2 days. Of all the 13 children, 7(54%) were asymptomatic with positive nucleic acid test of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). There were 4 children (31%) with abnormal lung CT findings, mainly patchy shadows or ground-glass opacities in the lung field, and 6 children (46%) had no symptoms with normal lung CT findings. All children had normal routine blood test results and C-reactive protein levels. Eight children underwent SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG tests at least once, among whom 6 had negative SARS-CoV-2 IgM but positive IgG, and 2 underwent SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG tests twice and had negative results. Of all the 13 children, 11(85%) had negative results of two SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid tests during hospitalization and were discharged, and 2(15%) had positive results of four SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid tests and were transferred to another hospital and lost to follow-up. Among the 11 children who were followed up, 1 had positive results of two SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid tests at the isolation point, and 10 had negative results. The mean hospital stay was 10.9 days for the 13 children. Eleven children recovered during follow-up, with good living and learning conditions.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Children with mild COVID-19 often have an uncertain history of exposure and may not have any clinical symptoms. Etiological diagnosis is more important than clinical diagnosis. The disappearance of clinical manifestations may not parallel with the result of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid test. SARS-CoV-2 has a long detoxification time, and there may be recurrent cases of SARS-CoV-2 positivity. Further studies are needed to investigate the production patterns of SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG and their effect on the body.

Perioperative analysis of the posterior medial approach versus the paravertebral approach for interbody fusion in the treatment of grade Ⅰ~Ⅱ lumbar spondylolisthesis in the elderly / 中华老年医学杂志

Objective:To compare perioperative differences between posterior lumbar interbody fusion(PLIF)by a posterior median approach or open transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion(TLIF)and minimally invasive surgery TLIF(MIS-TLIF)by a paravertebral approach for lumbar spondylolisthesis(Ⅰ~Ⅱ°)in elderly patients.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze clinical data of patients aged 60 years and over with lumbar spondylolisthesis(n=68)who underwent PLIF or MIS-TLIF from January 2014 to December 2017.Patients were divided into the PLIF group(n=40, 12 males and 28 females)and the MIS-TLIF group(n=28, 6 males and 22 females)according to the type of surgery.Differences in operating time, blood loss, exposure frequency, postoperative drainage volume, indwelling duration, hospital stay length and complications were compared between the groups.Results:There was no significant difference in operative time between the PLIF group and the MIS-TLIF group(156±51)min vs.(153±38)min( P=0.77). There were significant differences in intraoperative blood loss and radiation exposure frequency between the PLIF group and the MIS-TLIF group(458±272)ml vs.(157±104)ml( P<0.001); (6.7±1.5)times vs.(30.6±6.9)times( P<0.01). There was no significant difference in intraoperative complications between the PLIF group and the MIS-TLIF group(25% or 10/40 vs.7.1% or 2/28, P=0.057). There were more postoperative drainage, longer indwelling time and hospitalization in the PLIF group than in the MIS-TLIF group(664±351)ml vs.(210±127)ml( P<0.001); (3.7±2.9)d vs.(2.2±0.8)d( P=0.002); (9.2±3.6)d vs.(6.9±1.7)d( P=0.001). The incidence of postoperative neurological complications was not significantly different between the PLIF group and the MIS-TLIF group(7.5% or 3/40 vs.14.3% or 4/28, P=0.365). The incidence of postoperative non-neurological complications was higher in the PLIF group than in the MIS-TLIF group(27.5% or 11/40 vs.7.1% or 2/28, P=0.036). Conclusions:Compared with PLIF, MIS-TLIF has the advantages of less intraoperative bleeding and postoperative drainage, shorter indwelling duration of urinary catheters, shorter hospital stays and fewer complications of non-neurological complications in treating Ⅰ-Ⅱ degree lumbar spondylolisthesis in the elderly, but it requires more radiation exposure.

An investigation of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia in 13 hospitals of Jiangsu Province, China / 中国当代儿科杂志

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the incidence of severe neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and the management on the treatment and follow-up of this disease in Jiangsu Province, China.@*METHODS@#The neonates with severe hyperbilirubinemia who were admitted to 13 hospitals in Jiangsu Province from January to December, 2018, were enrolled as subjects. A retrospective analysis was performed on their mediacal data and follow-up data.@*RESULTS@#In 2018, 740 neonates with severe hyperbilirubinemia were reported from the 13 hospitals in Jiangsu Province, accounting for 2.70% (740/27 386) of the total number of neonates admitted to the department of neonatology. Among these neonates, 620 (83.8%) had severe hyperbilirubinemia, 106 (14.3%) had extremely severe hyperbilirubinemia, and 14 (1.9%) had hazardous hyperbilirubinemia. Four neonates (0.5%) were diagnosed with acute bilirubin encephalopathy. A total of 484 neonates (65.4%) were readmitted due to severe hyperbilirubinemia after discharge from the delivery institution, with a median age of 7 days, among whom 214 (44.2%) were followed up for jaundice at the outpatient service before readmission, with a median age of 6 days at the first time of outpatient examination. During hospitalization, 211 neonates (28.5%) underwent cranial MRI examinations, among whom 85 (40.3%) had high T1WI signal in the bilateral basal ganglia and the globus pallidus; 238 neonates (32.2%) underwent brainstem auditory evoked potential examinations, among whom 14 (5.9%) passed only at one side and 7 (2.9%) failed at both sides. The 17 neonates with acute bilirubin encephalopathy or hazardous hyperbilirubinemia were followed up. Except one neonate was lost to follow-up, and there were no abnormal neurological symptoms in the other neonates.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Neonates with severe hyperbilirubinemia account for a relatively high proportion of the total number of neonates in the department of neonatology. Jaundice monitoring and management after discharge from delivery institutions need to be strengthened. For neonates with severe hyperbilirubinemia, relevant examinations should be carried out more comprehensively during hospitalization and these neonates should be followed up comprehensively and systematically after discharge.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the major histological subtype of primary liver cancer, with a high degree of invasiveness and metastatic potential. HOXB7 is a transcriptional regulator in the homeobox genes (HOX) family, which plays a significant role in the process of DNA synthesis and transcription. HOXB7 can promote the proliferation and invasion of liver cancer cells and other biological processes through a variety of mechanisms. HOXB7 expresses highly in HCC tissues and is closely related to disease progression and poor prognosis. HOXB7 is highly expressed in HCC tissues, and its high expression is closely related to disease progression and poor prognosis. This paper reviews the structure and function of HOXB7 gene, its role in the development of HCC and its prognostic value.

Application of Eye Tracker in Lie Detection / 法医学杂志

Objective To investigate the application value of eye tracking in lie detection. Methods The 40 subjects were randomly divided into two groups. The pupil diameter, fixation duration, points of fixation and blink frequency of the subjects in the experimental group in observing target stimulation and non-target stimulation were recorded with eye tracker after they accomplished the mock crime. The eye movement parameters of subjects in the control group were directly collected. The differences in eye movement parameters of the experimental group and the control group in observing target stimulation and non-target stimulation were analyzed by t-test. Pearson coefficient analysis of correlation between eye movement parameters that had differences was conducted. The effectiveness of eye movement parameters to distinguish between the experimental group and the control group was calculated by the receiver operator characteristic （ROC） curve. Results Participants from the experimental group had shorter average pupil diameter, longer average fixation duration and fewer fixation points （P<0.05）, but the differences in blink frequency had no statistical significance. The differences in the above indicators of the control group in observing target stimulation and non-target stimulation had no statistical significance. The average fixation duration showed a negative correlation with fixation points （r=-0.255, P<0.05）; the average fixation duration showed a negative correlation with average pupil diameter （r=-0.218, P<0.05）; the fixation points showed a positive correlation with average pupil diameter （r=0.09, P<0.05）. The area under the curve of average pupil diameter, average fixation duration and fixation points was 0.603, 0.621 and 0.580, respectively. Conclusion The average pupil diameter, average fixation duration and fixation points obtained by the eye tracker under laboratory conditions can be used to detect lies.

Long Non-Coding RNA Expression Profile in Vascular Endothelial Cells before and after Infected by Dengue Virus Type Ι / 中山大学学报(医学科学版)

@#【Objective】 To use high- throughout sequencing technologies for examining differentially expressed long non-coding RNA（lncRNA）in human umbilical vein endothelial cell（HUVEC）infected by dengue virus type Ι（DENV-1）， to analyze and explore the potential molecular mechanisms of HUVEC dysfunction or damage.【Methods】After 24 hours of DENV-1 infection，RNA samples were extracted from control groups and viral groups. Sequencing and the differentially expressed lncRNAs were screened ，and then GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were conducted and a co- expression network map was constructed.【Results】In contrast to the control group，there were 2 623 lncRNA expressed differently， among which 1 441 were up-regulated，while 1 182 were down-regulated. It was found that the differentially expressed lncRNA and the predicted corresponding target genes were mainly distributed in the regions of biological processes of antigen presentation，interferon synthesis，apoptosis and cell adhesion. 【Conclusion】After HUVEC were infected with DENV-1，lncRNA expression profile changes significantly，which is closely related to the occurrence and development of dengue hemorrhagic fever/dengue shock syndrome（DHF/DSS）.

The estimation of influenza-related outpatient rate in children under 5 years in Suzhou from 2011 to 2017 / 中华疾病控制杂志

Objective To estimate the outpatient rate of influenza-related influenza-like illness (ILI) for children younger than 5 years in Suzhou municipal districts. Methods From October 2011 to March 2017, we conducted a prospective surveillance program on ILI for children under 5 years in outpatient settings of Soochow University Affiliated Children’s Hospital (SCH). The throat swabs were collected and tested for influenza viruses by RT-PCR. Based on the healthcare utilization surveys and population data, the number of visits and the outpatient rate of influenza-related ILI for children younger than 5 years in Suzhou municipal districts were estimated. Results During 2011-2017, in total, there were 45 930 estimated influenza-related ILI cases younger than 5 years in Suzhou municipal districts, which consisted of 7 490 influenza A/H1N1 cases, 17 843 influenza A/H3N2 cases and 20 597 influenza B cases. The estimated outpatient rate of influenza-related ILI was 6.4% in 2011-2017, which was highest in 2011-2012, 20.5%, and the lowest in 2012-2013, 2.4%. Conclusion The number of visits and the outpatient rate of influenza-related ILI in children younger than 5 years was high in Suzhou municipal districts.

Unilateral short-segment screw fixation and bone graft fusion for special upper cervical spine injury / 中华创伤杂志

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of posterior unilateral short segment screw fixation and bone graft fusion in the treatment of special upper cervical spine injuries.Methods A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 15 patients with upper cervical spine injury adrnitted to Shanxi Bethune Hospital from July 2012 to May 2017.There were nine males and six females,aged 10-69 years [(41.9±20.9)years].There were eight patients with traumatic atlantoaxial dislocation,one with congenital atlantoaxial dislocation,two with atlantoaxial dislocation with nonunion of odontoid process,three with Anderson type Ⅱ odontoid process fracture,and one with old odontoid process fracture.All patients had cervico-occipital pain to different degrees,slender unilateral pedicle and distinct stenosis of vertebral artery.All patients were treated with posterior unilateral screw fixation and bone graft fusion.The injury of spinal cord and vertebral artery,operation time and intraoperative blood loss were recorded.Visual analogue scale(VAS)was used to evaluate pain before and after operation,and Japanese Orthopaedic Association(JOA)score was used to evaluate spinal cord function and postoperative improvement rate before and at the last follow-up.The position of internal fixation and fusion of bone graft were ohserved by X-ray after operation.Results All 15 patients were followed up for 6-36 months [(20.4±8.6)months].All the screws were implanted successfully at the first time.Without spinal cord or vertehral artery injury.The operation time was 100-210 minutes [(131.3±32.0)minutes],and the intraoperative blood loss was 100-450 ml [(203.1±104.0)ml].Preoperative VAS score was(7.9 ±0.9)points.And postoperative VAS score was(3.7 ±0.8)points(P＜0.01).Preoperative JOA score was(12.1±4.4)points.And the JOA score at postoperative follow-up was(16.1±1.4)points.With the improvement rate of 68％.Postoperative X-ray showed good recovery of cervical spine sequence.One patient developed loosened internal fixation after the neck hrace protection was removed one month after surgery.And the patient recovered after timely second surgical fixation and fusion.The remaining 14 patients did not have loosened internal fixation.Fracture or loss of reduction.With bone fusion 6-12 months after surgery.Conclusion Posterior cervical unilateral short-segment screw fixation and bone graft fusion can restore cervical stability,relieve pain,and improve function recovery,which can he used as complementary procedure to treat upper cervical spine injury with anatomic structure variation.
