Visible Light-Induced Radical Cascade Difluoromethylation/Cyclization of Unactivated Alkenes: Access to CF2H-Substituted Polycyclic Imidazoles.

An efficient and mild protocol for the visible light-induced radical cascade difluoromethylation/cyclization of imidazoles with unactivated alkenes using easily accessible and bench-stable difluoromethyltriphenylphosphonium bromide as the precursor of the -CF2H group has been developed to afford CF2H-substituted polycyclic imidazoles in moderate to good yields. This strategy, along with the construction of Csp3-CF2H/C-C bonds, is distinguished by mild conditions, no requirement of additives, simple operation, and wide substrate scope. In addition, the mechanistic experiments have indicated that the difluoromethyl radical pathway is essential for the methodology.

Survey results of drinking water iodine level in some areas of Jiangsu Province in 2020 / 中华地方病学杂志

Objective:To dynamically observe the changes in iodine level in residents' drinking water after the change of regional water supply mode (2020) in Jiangsu Province.Methods:The survey of water iodine level was conducted from June to October 2020 in administrative villages of Jiangsu Province with a median water iodine ≥40 μg/L in 2017. The survey mainly covered 1 537 administrative villages in 21 counties (cities and districts) of 5 cities, including Huaian City, Lianyungang City, Suqian City, Yancheng City, and Xuzhou City. Based on the standard of "Definition and Demarcation of Iodine Deficient Areas and Iodine Adequate Areas" (WS/T 669-2020), the administrative villages with a median water iodine of 40 - 100 μg/L were classified as iodine adequate areas. Water iodine testing was conducted using the "Method for Water Iodine Testing in Iodine Deficient and High Iodine Areas" recommended by the National Reference Laboratory for Iodine Deficiency Disorders.Results:Totally 1 498 administrative villages in Jiangsu Province were monitored in 2020, all of which had centralized water supply. The minimum value of water iodine in all administrative villages was 1.2 μg/L and the maximum value was 606.7 μg/L, and the median water iodine was 35.2 μg/L. Among them, 206 administrative villages had median water iodine < 10 μg/L, accounting for 13.75% (206/1 498); 610 administrative villages had median water iodine from 10 to < 40 μg/L, accounting for 40.72% (610/1 498); 635 administrative villages had median water iodine from 40 to 100 μg/L, accounting for 42.39% (635/1 498); and 47 administrative villages with median water iodine > 100 μg/L, accounting for 3.14% (47/1 498). Except for Sucheng District in Suqian City, Xinyi City and Gulou District in Xuzhou City, Qingjiangpu District and Xuyi County in Huaian City, and Guannan County in Lianyungang City, the median water iodine in the administrative villages of the remaining 15 counties (cities and districts) in 2020 decreased significantly compared to 2017, and the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). Conclusion:After change of regional water supply mode in 2020, in most monitored counties (cities and districts) of Jiangsu Province, the water iodine level of administrative villages has decreased significantly compared to 2017.

Objective: To investigate the prognosis factors for death within 90 days after discharge in patients with acute kidney injury(AKI) treated requiring continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT) undergoing surgery for acute Standford type A aortic dissection. Methods: The clinic data of 126 patients undergoing CRRT for postoperative AKI after acute type A aortic dissection surgery in the Center for Cardiac Intensive Care, Beijing Anzhen Hospital from July 2016 to February 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 83 males and 43 females, aging (52.9±11.2) years(range: 25 to 70 years). The patients' demographic characteristics, disease-related information, perioperative data, laboratory indexes during CRRT, complications, and survival information within 90 days after discharge were recorded. Independent prognosis factors for death within 90 days of discharge were determined by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, univariate and multifactorial Cox regression analysis. Results: Totally 57 of 126 patients(45.2%) died over the first 90 days after discharge. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and univariate Cox regression analysis showed that there were significant differences between the non-survival and survival group including ≥65 years old, high lactate values 12 hours after CRRT, pulmonary infection, liver dysfunction, presence of permanent neurological complications, and postoperative ejection fraction(EF)<45%. Multifactorial Cox regression analysis revealed that ≥65 years old(HR=2.14, 95%CI: 1.09 to 4.21, P=0.03), high lactate values 12 hours after CRRT(HR=1.13, 95%CI: 1.06 to 1.20, P=0.01) and postoperative EF<45%(HR=2.21, 95%CI: 1.09 to 4.51, P=0.03) were independent prognosis factors for patients' death within 90 days after hospital discharge. Conclusions: ≥65 years old, high lactate values 12 hours after CRRT and postoperative EF<45% are independent prognosis factors for death within 90 days after discharge in patients undergoing CRRT for AKI after acute type A aortic dissection surgery. Proper identification and management of prognosis factors could be beneficial to improve patients' outcomes.

Chemical constituents in different parts of seven species of Aconitum based on UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS.

Aconitum L., the main source of Aconitum medicinal materials, is rich in diterpenoid alkaloids. Several drugs derived from diterpenoid alkaloids are widely used to the current clinical treatment of pain, inflammation, and other symptoms. This paper aims to clarify the main metabolites and distribution of diterpenoid alkaloids in different parts of Aconitum plants. To that end, 7 species of Aconitum from three subgenera were analyzed by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS under identical conditions. The fragmentation regularity of various types of diterpene alkaloids were determined and a total of 126 metabolites were identified by comparing the reference material and secondary mass spectrometry, with the literature. 67, 49, 17, 41, 14, 17 and 21 metabolites were identified from Aconitum carmichaeli, Aconitum stylosum, Aconitum sinomontanum, Aconitum vilmorinianum, Aconitum pendulum, Aconitum tanguticum and Aconitum gymnandrum, respectively. Meanwhile, the structure type of A. carmichaeli, A. stylosum, A. vilmorinianum, A. pendulum, A. gymnandrum were identified as C19 type, A. sinomontanum was C18 type, while A. tanguticum was C20 type. A high similarity of metabolites was found between A. stylosum and A. vilmorinianum. The quantitative analysis of 19 compounds and the relative peak area of all metabolites which obtained through internal standard berberine, highlighted compounds like karakoline, talatisamine and atisine as references for future study of metabolic pathways. Furthermore, results from metabolites distribution and relative peak area analysis suggest that the leaf of A. carmichaeli, the leaf and stem of A. stylosum and A. vilmorinianum, and the flower of A. pendulum have potential as medicinal resources and are worth further development. These results establish a foundation for the comprehensive utilization of Aconitum resources.

Nasu-Hakola disease due to a homozygous triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 2 gene mutation / 中华神经科杂志

Nasu-Hakola disease is an extremely rare genetic disorder with cognitive dysfunction and fractures as the main clinical manifestations. The clinical characteristics, laboratory, imaging, and genetic data of a Nasu-Hakola case from a consanguineous Chinese family were analyzed. The patient was a 40-year-old female complaining about progressive forgetting and behavior change of three years and urinary incontinence of eight months. Neurological examination of the patient showed tetra-pyramidal signs. Neuropsychological testing revealed severe cognitive and behavioral impairment. Head magnetic resonance imaging showed generalized brain atrophy predominantly involving the frontal lobe, caudate nucleus, and anterior corpus callosum, and head computer tomography showed bilateral basal ganglia calcification. The patient had no history of bone pain or fracture and a skeletal survey showed no abnormalities. Whole exome sequencing identified a novel homozygous triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 gene mutation (c.523delA) in the patient and confirmed the heterozygous status of her parents and sisters. The patient showed no signs of improvement during the last six months after discharge. Although the patient′s clinical presentations mimicked the behavioral variant of frontotemporal dementia, reduced 42-amino acid form of amyloid-β protein level in the cerebrospinal fluid suggested amyloid deposition in the brain, which might be related to astrocytic dysfunction.

Objective To establish a deep learning-based visual model for intelligent recognition of Oncomelania hupensis, the intermediate host of Schistosoma japonicum, and evaluate the effects of different training strategies for O. hupensis image recognition. Methods A total of 2 614 datasets of O. hupensis snails and 4 similar snails were generated through field sampling and internet capture, and were divided into training sets and test sets. An intelligent recognition model was created based on deep learning, and was trained and tested. The precision, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, F1 score and Youden index were calculated. In addition, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve of the model for snail recognition was plotted to evaluate the effects of “new learning”, “transfer learning” and “transfer learning + data enhancement” training strategies on the accuracy of the model for snail recognition. Results Under the “transfer learning + data enhancement” strategy, the precision, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, Youden index and F1 score of the model were 90.10%, 91.00%, 97.50%, 96.20%, 88.50% and 90.51% for snail recognition, which were all higher than those under both “new learning” and “transfer learning” strategies. There were significant differences in the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the model for snail recognition under “new learning”, “transfer learning” and “transfer learning + data enhancement” training strategies (all P values < 0.001). In addition, the area under the ROC curve of the model was highest (0.94) under the “transfer learning + dataenhancement” training strategy. Conclusions This is the first visual model for intelligent recognition of O. hupensis based on deep learning, which shows a high accuracy for snail image recognition. The “transfer learning + data enhancement” training strategy is helpful to improve the accuracy of the model for snail recognition.

Antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 in COVID-19 patients: the perspective application of serological tests in clinical practice

BackgroundWe aim to investigate the profile of acute antibody response in COVID-19 patients, and provide proposals for the usage of antibody test in clinical practice. MethodsA multi-center cross-section study (285 patients) and a single-center follow-up study (63 patients) were performed to investigate the feature of acute antibody response to SARS-CoV-2. A cohort of 52 COVID-19 suspects and 64 close contacts were enrolled to evaluate the potentiality of the antibody test. ResultsThe positive rate for IgG reached 100% around 20 days after symptoms onset. The median day of seroconversion for both lgG and IgM was 13 days after symptoms onset. Seroconversion of IgM occurred at the same time, or earlier, or later than that of IgG. IgG levels in 100% patients (19/19) entered a platform within 6 days after seroconversion. The criteria of IgG seroconversion and > 4-fold increase in the IgG titers in sequential samples together diagnosed 82.9% (34/41) of the patients. Antibody test aided to confirm 4 patients with COVID-19 from 52 suspects who failed to be confirmed by RT-PCR and 7 patients from 148 close contacts with negative RT-PCR. ConclusionIgM and IgG should be detected simultaneously at the early phase of infection. The serological diagnosis criterion of seroconversion or the >; 4-fold increase in the IgG titer is suitable for a majority of COVID-19 patients. Serologic test is helpful for the diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection in suspects and close contacts.

[Research progress of tissue culture of Aconitum].

Aconitum is a kind of important medicinal plant, which has been used in China for more than 2 000 years, with both a good medicinal and ornamental value. However, due to the lack of effective breeding methods and low seed and root propagation coefficients, the comprehensive development and utilization of Aconitum were greatly restricted. Tissue culture is an important basis for seed selection, germplasm conservation and genetic engineering. Therefore, this paper summarized the research on tissue culture of Aconitum, put forward the main problems and corresponding countermeasures, and provided important references for accelerating the seedling breeding of Aconitum and conducting the basic research of molecular biology.

Spatio-temporal patterns of Oncomelania hupensis snail habitats in Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou cities along the Taihu Lake region / 中国血吸虫病防治杂志

Objective To investigate the spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of Oncomelania hupensis snail habitats in three cities of Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou along the Taihu Lake region, so as to provide technical supports for establishing a sensitive and highly effective surveillance and forecast system for schistosomiasis. Methods Snail distribution data were collected from Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou cities from 1950 to 2018, and the changing trend for snail habitats were described over years. In addition, the clusters of snail habitats were detected using Kernel density analysis and SaTScan space-time scan analysis. Results The number of snail habitats appeared a single-peak distribution in Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou cities from 1950 to 2018, which peaked in 1970 and then declined rapidly. There were 62.68% of snail habitats eliminated within 10 years after identification, of which 38.24% were eliminated at the year of identification. Kernel density analysis and SaTScan space-time scan analysis revealed that high-density clusters of snail habitats were mainly distributed in Kunshan City, Wuzhong District and Xiangcheng District from 1970 to 1980, and in Yixing City in 1990; since then, the clusters gradually shrank, and overall appeared a move from northeast to west of Taihu Lake. A total of 4 new clusters were detected after 1970, as revealed by space-time scanning of snail habitats. In current snail habitats, emerging snail habitats are mainly identified in Huqiu District (Dongzhu Town), Wuzhong District (Guangfu Town), Taicang City (Shaxi Town) and Jintan District, and re-emerging snail habitats are scattered in 7 districts. Conclusions The distribution of snail habitats are spatio-temporal aggregation in Suzhou, Wuxi and Changzhou cities. The monitoring and prediction of emerging and re-emerging snail habitats are the key points in the future.

The healthy controls were exposed to air and fed normally, the COPD model controls injected with normal saline at 0.5 mL/ on the first day of modeling by fumigation, the mice of the imDC group injected via the tail vein with 1 ×106 imDCs, and those of the DC-SOCS1 groups injected with 1 ×106 or 2 ×106 DCs with over expressed SOCS1, all via the tail vein on the 1st and 7th day of modeling. Then the lung tissues were collected from the mice for preparation of paraffin sections and HE staining, and ELISA was employed for determination of the levels of Th17-related IL-17 and IL-23 and Treg-related IL-10 and TGF-β in the BALF of the model mice.　Results　Compared with the COPD model controls, the mice in the imDC, DC-SOCS1 1×106 and DC-SOCS1 2×106 groups showed significantly decreased levels of IL-17 on the 1st day ([78.87 ± 1.08] vs [46.46 ± 0.77], [34.09 ± 3.98] and [24.12 ± 0.57] pg/mL, P < 0.05) and 7th day after modeling ([78.87 ± 1.08] vs [55.69 ±0.35], [35.65 ± 0.54] and [27.00 ± 0.58] pg/mL, P < 0.05), and IL-23 on the 1st day ([200.62 ± 0.65] vs [150.19 ± 0.53], [121.09 ± 0. 53] and [70.21 ± 0.91] pg/mL, P < 0.05) and 7th day ([200.62 ± 0.65] vs [167.70 ± 1.73], [136.34 ± 0.90] and [99.35 ± 1.83] pg/mL, P < 0.05), but remarkably increased levels of IL-10 on the 1st day ([39.46 ± 3.88] vs [50.74 ± 1.77], [58.71 ± 3.84] and [70.12 ± 2.62] pg/mL, P < 0.05) and 7th day ([39.46 ± 3.88] vs [44.56 ± 2.63], [54.78 ± 1.43] and [63.00 ± 2.57] pg/mL, P < 0.05), TGF-β on the 1st day ([24.98 ± 0.43] vs [36.46 ± 0.98], [42.40 ± 0.62] and [50.55 ± 0.53] pg/mL, P < 0.05) and 7th day ([24.98 ± 0.43] vs [33.27 ± 0.92], [40.12 ± 0.83] and [44.98 ± 0.52] pg/mL, P < 0.05). The contents of IL-17 and IL-23 were markedly lower while those of IL-10 and TGF-β higher in the DC-SOCS1 1×106 than in the imDC group (P < 0.05), and the levels of the former two significantly higher and those of the latter two lower in the DC-SOCS1 2×106 than in the DC-SOCS1 1×106 group (P < 0.05).　Conclusion　Transfusion of DCs with over-expressed SOCS1 can inhibit the secretion of Th17-related cytokines in COPD, and the effect is better than that of imDCs alone and related to the concentration and time.

Analysis of water iodine content in Jiangsu rural water factory / 中华地方病学杂志

Objective To further understand and master the distribution and influencing factors of water iodine in Jiangsu Province.Methods From 2012 to 2014,half of the water plants in rural centralized water supply monitoring plants in 63 counties (cities,districts) of Jiangsu Province were selected as survey sites,and the types of monitoring,types of water plants,types of water sources,self-inspection ability,disinfection situation,water treatment methods were investigated and analyzed.One sample of peripheral water was collected from each survey site to determine the water iodine content.Results From 2012-2014,there were 938 samples of river water were monitored,and the median water iodine was 5.9 μg/L.There were 57 samples of lake water were monitored,the median water iodine was 6.8 μg/L.There were 228 samples of reservoir water were monitored,and the median water iodine was 7.1 μg/L.There were 43 samples of gully pond water were monitored,and the median water iodine was 6.9 μg/L.There were 5 474 samples of deep well water were monitored,and the median water iodine was 28.2 μg/L.There were 162 samples of shallow well water were monitored,and the median water iodine was 30.9 μg/L.There was a statistically significant difference in the median iodine content of water samples from different water sources (x2 =844.9,P ＜ 0.05).The differences of median iodine of lake water,reservoir water,gully pond water,deep well water and shallow well water among different monitoring types were significant (x2 =9.6,6.3,9.7,121.2,38.1,P ＜ 0.05).The differences of median iodine of river water,reservoir water,deep well water and shallow well water among different types of water plants were significant (x2 =109.5,39.0,153.3,7.6,P ＜ 0.05).The iodine contents of fiver water,lake water,deep well water and shallow well water had significant difference in selfinspection ability of different water plants (x2 =62.5,5.1,29.9,10.1,P ＜ 0.05).The iodine content of reservoir water,deep well water and shallow well water were significandy different in different disinfection situation (x2 =12.1,12.4,35.7,P ＜ 0.05).The medians iodine of river water,reservoir water,deep well water and shallow well water had significant difference in different water treatment methods (x2 =9.5,21.2,102.4,46.9,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The water iodine contents of water samples in different types of water sources in rural area of Jiangsu Province are different.The level of water iodine is affected by factors such as monitoring type,type of water plant,self-inspection ability,disinfection situation and water treatment method.
