Grassroots autonomous organizations embedding, non-agricultural employment and farmer homestead withdrawal behavior: based on the research data of Qionglai City, Sichuan Province, China.

In the context of the rapid rise of the village revitalization in China, the study examines the impact of grassroots autonomous organizations embedding level and farmer non-agriculture employment on the farmer homestead exit behavior. Based on 421 household surveys in Qionglai, this study obtained three results through empirical analysis. (1) The system embedding level of grassroots autonomous organization and the interests embedding level of grassroots autonomous organization have a significant positive impact on the farmer homestead withdrawal behavior, but the emotion embedding level of grassroots autonomous organizations has a significant negative impact on the farmer homestead withdrawal behavior. (2) The farmer non-agriculture employment level is beneficial for the farmer homestead exit behavior. (3) Further mechanism analysis shows that the non-agricultural employment level plays an inhibitory role in the positive influence of grassroots organizations to mobilize farmers to exit homestead. Therefore, it is suggested that when mobilizing farmers to voluntarily withdraw from the homestead, grassroots organizations should actively improve their embedding level, improve the construction of farmers' social network, and accelerate the accumulation of farmers' material capital.

Research progress of gut microbiota in diabetic retinopathy / 中华眼底病杂志

The concept of "Microbe-gut-eye axis" holds that metabolites of the gut microbiota are involved in the pathogenesis of various eye diseases. The composition and diversity of gut microbiota in diabetic retinopathy (DR) patients are significantly different from those in non-DR patients. Metabolites of the gut microbiota such as lipopolysaccharide, short-chain fatty acid, bile acids and branched-chain amino acid aggravate or attenuate the progression of DR by regulating the release of inflammatory cytokines, mitochondrial function, insulin sensitivity, immune response, and autophagy of retinal cells. Therefore, gut microbiota and their metabolites play a role in the occurrence and development of DR through multiple pathways. The participation of gut microbiota may open up a new way to prevent and treat DR in the future.

Analysis of regional homogeneity and functional connectivity among the depression and bipolar disorder with mixed features patients / 中华放射学杂志

Objective:To investigate the regional homogeneity (ReHo) among the major depressive disorder patients without mixed features (MDD noMF), major depressive disorder with mixed features (MMF), bipolar disorder with mixed features (BMF) and bipolar disorder patients without mixed features (BD noMF) patients, and to explore the brain activity and functional connectivity patterns of the MMF and BMF patients. Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. The MDD noMF patients (MDD noMF group), MMF patients (MMF group), BMF patients (BMF group), BD noMF patients (BD noMF group), and age-and gender-matched healthy controls (HC group) were recruited from Beijing Anding Hospital, Capital Medical University between April, 2021 and June, 2022. All the participants underwent resting-state functional MRI scanning. The ReHo values was computed with the DPABI software based on the MATLAB. Firstly, the difference in ReHo among the patients with MDD noMF, MMF, BMF, BD noMF and HC group were estimated by the analysis of covariance and the post-hoc method (LSD or Games-Howell). And then, the brain regions with significant different ReHo values were selected as the seeds to calculate the functional connectivity with the whole brain. Results:A total of 29 cases in the MDD noMF group, 24 cases in the MMF group, 26 cases in the BMF group, 29 cases in the BD noMF group, and 42 in the HC group were included. The differences in ReHo values in the left fusiform and the left precuneus of the 5 groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Among of them, the ReHo values of the left fusiform were lower in the MMF, BMF and BD noMF groups compared with the HC group ( P<0.05), while the ReHo values of the left precuneus in MDD noMF, MMF, BMF and BD noMF groups were higher than that in the HC group ( P<0.05). The ReHo value of the left fusiform was lower in the MMF group compared with the MDD noMF group ( P=0.001); the ReHo value of the left fusiform was lower in the BMF group compared with the MDD noMF and BD noMF groups ( P<0.05). The functional connectivity between the left fusiform and vermis, left insula, right putamen, and left medial superior frontal gyrus, and functional connectivity between the left precuneus and right superior frontal gyrus (dorsolateral) showed significant difference among the MDD noMF, MMF, BMF, BD noMF and HC groups ( P<0.05). Compared with HC group, MDD noMF, MMF, BD noMF groups showed higher functional connectivity between the left fusiform and the vermis, and MDD noMF, MMF, BMF, BD noMF group showed higher functional connectivityy between the the left fusiform and the left insula, left medial superior frontal gyrus and right putamen ( P<0.05). Compared with the MDD noMF group, the MMF, BMF and BD noMF groups showed higher functional connectivity between the left fusiform and the left insula ( P<0.05). Compared with the MDD noMF group, the BMF and BD noMF groups had higher functional connectivity between the left fusiform and the left medial superior frontal gyrus ( P<0.05). The BMF group showed higher functional connectivity of the left fusiform with the right putamen than the MDD noMF and BD noMF groups. Additonally, the BMF and BD noMF groups showed higher functional connectivity between the left precuneus and the right superior frontal gyrus (dorsolateral) than HC, MDD noMF and MMF groups ( P<0.05). Conclusions:MMF and BMF patients have local abnormalities of functional activity synchronization in the left fusiform and precuneus and abnormal functional connectivity patterns with multiple brain regions. MMF and BMF patients have specific neuroimaging features compared to MDD noMF or BD noMF patients and also share similar neuroimaging pathogenesis.

Investigation and comparative study on death cognition and hospice care attitude of the graduate students of clinical medicine / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Objective:To investigate and analyze the status quo of death cognition and hospice care attitude of clinical medical graduate students, to compare the differences between the two groups, and to explore the correlation between death cognition and hospice care attitude, so as to provide the reference for the reform and construction of death cognition and hospice care education in medical colleges and universities in China.Methods:A survey was carried out on 496 doctoral and postgraduate students majoring in clinical medicine by using the "Questionnaire of General Sociology Survey", the Chinese version of the "Death Attitude Profile Revised Scale", and the Chinese version of the "Frommelt Attitudes Toward Care of the Dying Scale Form B (FATCOD-B)" to investigate the death cognition and hospice care attitude of 496 doctoral and postgraduate students majoring in clinical medicine, and classified and compared the survey results of the two groups. The results of this study were statistically analyzed by t-test, Pearson correlation analysis and other statistical methods. Results:A total of 469 valid questionnaires were recovered after excluding 27 unqualified questionnaires. Statistical analysis showed that the scores of each dimension in the death attitude description scale of doctoral students were ranked as follows: approach acceptance (4.28±0.53), neutral acceptance (3.99±0.41), death avoidance (2.74±0.63), fear of death (2.65±0.57) and escape acceptance (2.47±0.69) the scores of postgraduates were ranked as neutral acceptance (3.96±0.52), approach acceptance (2.84±0.61), fear of death (2.78±0.65), death escape (2.62±0.73), escape acceptance (2.39±0.77). At the same time, the scores of hospice care attitude in the doctoral group were higher than those in the master group [(110.63±8.96) vs. (106.78±6.52)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). In addition, the scores of "fear of death" and the scores of hospice care attitudes were negatively correlated with the scores of doctoral and master students ( r=-0.25, r=-0.21), while the scores of hospice care attitudes were positively correlated with the scores of "neutral acceptance" in death cognition ( r=0.50, r=0.32). However, the hospice care attitude scores of doctoral students were negatively correlated with the "death avoidance" scores in death cognition ( r=-0.27). Conclusion:Doctoral and postgraduate students have a certain awareness of hospice care, while their death cognition and hospice care attitude still need to be improved and strengthened from sociology, psychology, ethics and other perspectives. The above will promote the harmony between doctors and patients while meeting the needs of an aging society in China.

WDR62-deficiency Causes Autism-like Behaviors Independent of Microcephaly in Mice / 神经科学通报·英文版

Brain size abnormality is correlated with an increased frequency of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in offspring. Genetic analysis indicates that heterozygous mutations of the WD repeat domain 62 (WDR62) are associated with ASD. However, biological evidence is still lacking. Our study showed that Wdr62 knockout (KO) led to reduced brain size with impaired learning and memory, as well as ASD-like behaviors in mice. Interestingly, Wdr62 Nex-cKO mice (depletion of WDR62 in differentiated neurons) had a largely normal brain size but with aberrant social interactions and repetitive behaviors. WDR62 regulated dendritic spinogenesis and excitatory synaptic transmission in cortical pyramidal neurons. Finally, we revealed that retinoic acid gavages significantly alleviated ASD-like behaviors in mice with WDR62 haploinsufficiency, probably by complementing the expression of ASD and synapse-related genes. Our findings provide a new perspective on the relationship between the microcephaly gene WDR62 and ASD etiology that will benefit clinical diagnosis and intervention of ASD.

Pediatric pulmonary actinomycosis: A misdiagnosed case report.

Background: Pulmonary actinomycosis is an uncommon kind of bacterial illness caused by actinomycetes, involving the chest wall in extraordinarily rare cases. Due to non-specific clinical signs and perplexing radiological characteristics, this kind of pulmonary actinomycosis is frequently misinterpreted as a malignant tumor or lung abscess. Case presentation: An 11-year-old child presented with a palpable lump on his left chest and periodic chest discomfort. An irregular soft-tissue mass in the left upper zone with bony destruction was first identified as a malignant small round cell tumor (MSRCT) known as an Askin tumor on post-contrast CT. However, pathological biopsy of the pulmonary lesion through the chest wall revealed actinomycosis. Conclusion: Pulmonary actinomycosis is an uncommon bacterial illness that has a variety of clinical manifestations, particularly in young patients. A chest lump with nearby "lace-like" rib bone destruction was the distinguishing characteristic of our case. For appropriate treatment and diagnosis, infection with actinomycosis should be considered when observing a similar chest lump. Pathological biopsy, as a valuable diagnostic tool, can help to distinguish between infectious diseases and thoracic tumors. The pathological manifestations of actinomycosis are characterized by inflammatory lesions that range from purulent to granuloma-like inflammatory processes, and second-generation sequencing of alveolar lavage fluid can help to confirm pathogens.

Fibroblast-derived exosomal miRNA-133 promotes cardiomyocyte-like differentiation.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of exosomal miRNA-133 secreted by cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) in promoting cardiomyocyte differentiation. METHODS: Neonatal rat CFs were cultured in vitro, and the cultured CFs were divided into three groups as follows: induction, miRNA-133 high expression, and miRNA-133 inhibition. miRNA-133 was transfected into CFs with lentivirus as a vector. CFs were transfected with the miRNA-133 inhibitor, and the markers of cardiomyocyte were detected through immunofluorescence staining, Western blotting, and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) at 3, 8, and 14 days, respectively. The expression levels of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac actin (α-actin) were determined, and qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miRNA-133 in the fibroblast exosomes. RESULTS: CFs subjected to immunofluorescence staining expressed vimentin and discoid domain receptor 2. The exosomes secreted by CFs were observed as small vesicles of 30-100 nm via transmission electron microscopy, and Western blotting was used to detect exosome-specific protein CD63 and CD9 expression. The expression levels of cTnT, α-actin, and exosomal miRNA-133 secreted into the supernatant of the miRNA-133 high-expression group increased gradually at different time points and reached the highest level at 14 days. The expression levels of cTnT, α-actin, and exosome miRNA-133 in the miRNA-133 inhibition group were the lowest. CONCLUSION: The exosomal miRNA-133, which is derived from CFs, can promote the differentiation of fibroblasts into cardiomyocyte-like cells.

The value of laboratory parameters in predicting endoscopic manifestations of ulcerative colitis after treatment / 中华消化杂志

Objective:To explore the significance of laboratory parameters in predicting the endoscopic manifestations of ulcerative colitis (UC) after treatment.Methods:From January 2015 to December 2020, the clinical data of 68 patients with UC hospitalized and treated in Peking University People′s Hospital were retrospectively and continuously collected. According to the degree of bleeding, vascular pattern, erosion and ulcer under endoscopy before and after treatment, they were divided into progressive group (post-treatment ulcerative colitis endoscopic index of severity (UCEIS) score higher than pre-treatment) and non-progressive group (post-treatment UCEIS score equal to or lower than pre-treatment). The baseline platelet count, platelet volume, platelet hematocrit, platelet distribution width, serum albumin, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and related laboratory parameters were compared between the two groups. And analyzed the significance of related laboratory indexes in predicting the endoscopic manifestations of UC after treatment. Independent sample t test and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:According to the degree of bleeding under endoscopy before and after treatment, the patients were divided into progressive group (12 cases) and non-progressive group (56 cases). The baseline platelet count and platelet volume of the progressive group were higher than those of the non-progressive group ((375.58±154.30) ×10 9/L vs. (288.22±103.76) ×10 9/L, (9.29±1.13) fL vs.(8.52±1.29) fL), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.40 and 2.08, P=0.019 and 0.049). According to the degree of vascular texture under endoscopy before and after treatment, the baseline platelet volume and serum albumin level of the progressive group (9 cases) were higher than those of the non-progressive group (59 cases) ((9.58±1.18) fL vs. (8.54±1.26) fL, (41.49±5.08) g/L vs. (36.63±6.14) g/L), and the baseline CRP of the progressive group was lower than that of the non-progressive group (2.26 mg/L(0.95 mg/L) vs.8.64 mg/L (26.08 mg/L) ), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.32, 2.32, and z=-2.27, P=0.022, 0.047 and 0.045). According to the degree of erosion and ulcer under endoscopy before and after treatment, CRP and ESR of the progressive group (16 cases) were lower than those of the non-progressive group (52 cases) ((2.21 mg/L(5.26 mg/L) vs. 10.63 mg/L(29.97 mg/L), 14.50 mm/1 h (15.25 mm/1 h) vs.17.00 mm/1 h (11.00 mm/1 h)), and the differences were statisticaly significant ( z=-3.64 and -2.42, P=0.001 and 0.020). The cutoff value of baseline platelet count to assess the progression of bleeding under endoscopy after treatment was 336×10 9/L (sensitivity=0.636, specificity=0.852, area under the curve=0.698). The cutoff value of baseline CRP to assess the progression of erosion and ulcer under endoscopy after treatment was 3.44 mg/L (sensitivity=0.750, specificity=0.727, area under the curve=0.727). Conclusions:The baseline platelet volume, serum albumin and ESR are suggestive of endoscopic mucosal changes in patients with UC after treatment. The baseline platelet count and CRP can predict the efficacy in patients with UC.

Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging for assessment of motor function after hemispherectomy in children with refractory epilepsy / 中华实用儿科临床杂志

Hemispherectomy (HS) is an effective surgical therapy to treat refractory epilepsy caused by diffuse hemispheric disorders.After HS surgery, the seizures are often well controlled in patients, and the bilateral limb motor function improves even recovers in some children.This result reveals the strong neuronal plasticity of the brain.The brain, especially of young children, can achieve functional reorganization and cortical remodeling after extensive damage.Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging techniques can jointly analyze the structure and function of the brain and associated neuroimaging features to reveal the neurophysiological mechanisms underlying improved motor function.In this paper, the progress of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging research on motor function alterations in children after hemispherectomy was reviewed.

Objective:To analyze the related factors of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section, to establish and evaluate a nomogram model for predicting the risk of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section.Methods:A total of 170 pregnant women who underwent cesarean section in Hunan Provincical Maternal and Child Care Hospital from April 2019 to May 2020 were prospectively selected as the research objects, and they were divided into poor healing group (48 cases) and good healing group (122 cases) according to the uterine scar healing situation after cesarean section. Logistic regression model was used to analyze the related factors of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section. The nomograph model for predicting the risk of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section was drawn by using rms package in R language (R3.6.3). The nomogram model was evaluated and verified by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), calibration curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test.Results:Logistic regression model showed that prenatal body mass index (BMI), the number of cesarean section, premature rupture of membranes, incision position near the cervical orifice, operation time were the independent risk factors of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section ( P<0.05). According to the above results of logistic regression analysis, a nomogram model was drawn to predict the risk of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section. The ROC results showed that the area under curve (AUC) of this nomogram model to predict the risk of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section was 0.902. The calibration curve was a straight line with a slope close to 1 and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test (χ 2=5.912, P=0.657) showed that the nomogram model has good consistency and good calibration. Conclusions:The nomogram model for predicting the risks of poor uterine scar healing after cesarean section is established based on the five independent factors of maternal prenatal BMI, number of cesarean section, premature rupture of membranes, incision position near the cervical orifice and operation time, which has good accuracy and differentiation.

Effect Evaluation of PBM Pilots in Wuhu City of Anhui Province from the Perspective of Patients / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE： To evaluate the effects of Pharmacy Benefit Management （PBM） model on drug compliance， health outcomes， economic burden and satisfaction of patients in Wuhu city of Anhui province. METHODS： In cross-sectional study， the questionnaires were designed according to the National Health Service Survey. Through cluster sampling and convenient sampling， the questionnaire survey （including subjective evaluation） was conducted among hypertensive patients who participated in or did not participate in the PBM program in pilot area of Wuhu city. Descriptive analysis was used to analyze the general characteristics of the two groups. The Propensity Score Matching （PSM） was used to approximately randomize the included data to balance the baseline characteristics. Univariate linear regression or Logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the relationship of whether to join PBM or not with drug compliance，QALY， hospitalization probability，monthly average drug cost for chronic diseases and monthly self-paid drug cost for chronic diseases， etc. RESULTS： A total of 755 valid questionnaires were collected， including 405 in the PBM group and 350 in the non-participating group. There was statistical significance in patient’s gender， age， education degree， nature of household registration， type of medical insurance or usual visited medical institutions （P＜0.05）. About 95％ patients （405 cases） satisfied with PBM program. 281 cases of PBM group and 193 cases of non-participating group were included through PSM. Results of regression analysis showed that lower one level at least of medication compliance in PBM group was 0.49 times as that in the non-participating group； the hospitalization probability in PBM group was 0.56 times as that in the non-participating group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistical significance of difference in control of blood pressure QALY， monthly average drug cost for chronic diseases and monthly self-paid drug cost for chronic diseases between two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS： The implementation of PBM model in pilot areas can improve drug compliance and reduce hospitalization rate of patients. The most patients are highly satisfied. However， the effects of PBM on patients’ control of blood pressure， QALY and medical expense are not obvious， and its long-term effect needs more follow-up studies to verify.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of super large venous flap with palmaris longus tendon for repairing the complex tissue defect of the palm of finger.Methods From May,2011 to October,2017,complex tissue defect of the palm of 15 fingers in 15 cases was treated by a super large vein flap with palmaris longus tendon.There were 10 males with 10 fingers and 5 females with 5 fingers.The age was from 19 years to 51 years (average,35.8years).Among these cases,machine injury was in 12 cases and crush injury was in 3 cases.Complex tissue defect of the palm of the finger with tendon defect occurred in all the cases.There were 3 thumbs,5 index fingers,3 middle fingers and 5 ring fingers.The area of skin defect was from 3.5 cm×2.0 cm to 7.5 cm×3.5 cm.The length of tendon defect was 2.0-4.0 cm.Phalangeal fractures occurred in 4 cases (2 cases of proximal phalanx,1 of middle phalanx,and 1 of distal phalanx).All the patients received the operation in one stage.The time between the injury and the operation was 1.5-3.0h(average,2.0 h).The time of the operation was 3.0-4.5 h(average,3.6 h).Regular followed-up was performed after operation.Results All flaps survived.Fourteen cases were followed-up for 6 to 12 months(average,7 months),and 1 case lost.The skin flap has soft texture,good elasticity,and no bloat.The color of skin flap was close to the normal skin.Sensory recovery reached S2 to S3,and the function and appearance of the finger were well restored.Conclusion The super large vein flap with palmaris longus tendon can be used to repair the complex tissue defect of the palm of fingers.The flap can get a satisfactory effect after surviving.It is an ideal method of repairing this kind of damage.

Clinical characteristics and endoscopic findings in patients with cirrhotic upper gastrointestinal variceal bleeding / 中华普通外科杂志

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and endoscopic findings in patients with cirrhosis and upper gastrointestinal variceal bleeding (UGIB) and to evaluate the risk factors of rebleeding after endoscopic therapy.Method Between May 2010 and May 2017,383 patients who diagnosed with cirrhosis and UGIB were enrolled.Results The incidence of rebleeding was 8.88％ (n =34).In the univariate analysis,advanced age (P =0.362,OR =0.662),male (P =0.036,OR =2.975),cause of cirrhosis (P =0.047,OR =2.512),Child-Pugh scores (P =0.026,OR =1.852),prothrombin time (P =0.017,OR =3.746),thrombocytopenia (P =0.445,OR =0.577),severe varices (P =0.314,OR =0.745),red color sign (P =0.016,OR =4.013),portal vein diameter (P =0.365,OR =1.026),portal thrombosis (P =0.027,OR =1.954) were risk factors for rebleeding following endoscopic therapy.In the non-condition multivariate logistic regression analysis,male (P =0.036,OR =2.975),autoimmune liver disease (P =0.047,OR =2.512),Child-Pugh scores (P =0.026,OR =1.852),prothrombin time (P =0.017 OR =3.746),red color sign (P =0.016,OR =4.013),portal thrombosis (P =0.027,OR =1.954) were independent risk factors for rebleeding following endoscopic therapy.Conclusions Esophagogastric variceal rebleeding is common after a successful initial endoscopic therapy.Independent risk factors for rebleeding are male,autoimmune liver disease,elevated Child-Pugh scores,prolonged thrombin time,portal vein thrombosis and red color sign.

The clinical characteristics and endoscopic findings in the elderly patients with cirrhosis and variceal bleeding / 中华普通外科杂志

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and endoscopic findings in the elderly cirrhotic patients with variceal bleeding.Method In this study,181 cirrhotic patients with variceal bleeding cltnically and endoscopically diagnosed from May 2011 to May 2016 were divided into ≥60 years of age group (58 cases) and control group (＜ 60 years of age,123 cases).Clinical data and endoscopic findings were compared retrospectively.Results The cirrhosis caused by virus and alcohol (15/58,62/123) was less in elderly group,but autoimmune disease and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was more common (14/58,12/58)(x2 =7.452,P =0.004).The incidence rate of hypertension and coronary artery disease was higher in elderly group (20/58,7/58,x2 =6.124,12.764,P =0.012,0.001).However,there was no difference in the incidence rate of diabetes between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Gastric varices bleeding was higher in the elderly group (x2 =3.965,P =0.049).The gastric varices located in cardia were more in the elderly group (37.93％,22/58) than control (34.96％,43/123),(x2 =4.124,P =0.044).The rate of EIS was higher in the elderly group and cyanoacrylate injection was less than control (x2 =3.621,P =0.046).Conclusions Compared with those of ＜ 60 years of age,the causes and endoscopic findings and treatment are different cirrhotic variceal bleeding in patients ≥60 years of age.
