Abstract
Objective: To understand the relationship between new-type drug use and high risk behavior in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Shandong province. Methods: Cross-sectional surveys was conducted to collect the information about demographics, sexual and drug use behaviors of MSM and HIV-related services in MSM in three sentinel surveillance sites in Shandong from April to July in 2019. Blood samples were taken from the MSM for serological tests of HIV antibody and syphilis antibody. Results: A total of 1 203 MSM were included in this study. The average age of the MSM was 30.2±8.9 years. Among these MSM, 67.7% (815) were unmarried; 66.9% (805) had education level of college or above; 62.2% (721/1 160) had unprotected sex behaviors and 16.3% (189/1 160) had group sex behavior in the past six months and 54.2% (652/1 203) ever used new-type drugs. HIV infection and syphilis prevalence rates were 3.1% (37/1 203) and 4.7% (56/1 203), respectively. Multivariable logistic analysis indicated that MSM who had unprotected anal sex in the past six months were more likely to be from Qingdao (aOR=1.59, 95%CI:1.13-2.23), with education level of high school or below (aOR=1.61, 95%CI: 1.20-2.16), with male sex partners from bars/dance halls or other venues (aOR=1.69, 95%CI: 1.06-2.69), with HIV knowledge awareness score <6 (aOR=1.55, 95%CI: 1.01-2.37), with ≥2 sex partner in the past week (aOR=1.48, 95%CI: 1.12-1.95), to have group sex behaviors in the past six months (aOR=2.43, 95%CI:1.61-3.67) and to use new-type drugs (aOR=1.46, 95%CI: 1.11-1.91). MSM who had group sex were more likely to have following features: being from Qingdao (aOR=2.21, 95%CI: 1.45-3.38), non-Shandong residents (aOR=2.13, 95%CI: 1.28-3.55), HIV knowledge awareness score ≥6 (aOR=3.11, 95%CI: 1.55-6.25), ever having unprotected anal sex behaviors (aOR=2.60, 95%CI: 1.71-3.96) and ever having male commercial sex (aOR=3.38, 95%CI: 1.92-5.95) in the past six months, ever using new-type drugs (aOR=2.71, 95%CI: 1.82-4.04), and never having HIV testing in the past year (aOR=2.66, 95%CI: 1.59-4.43). Conclusion: New-type drug use is common in MSM in Shandong. The use of new-type drugs promotes unprotected sex and group sex in MSM. Surveillance and intervention measures targeting this population should be strengthened.

Abstract
Objective: To explore etiology, optimize the search direction of etiology, and short-term efficacy evaluation of acute liver failure in children. Methods: Children with acute liver failure who were diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from November 2011 to November 2019 were collected. Gender difference, age, living environment, etiological factors on the seasonal onset and different etiological profile of short-term prognosis were statistically analyzed. Chi-square test or Fisher's exact probability method was used to compare the rate and the constituent ratio between groups. Results: Among the 236 cases, 114 (48.31%) had unknown etiology and 122 (51.69%) had definite etiology. In the definite etiology group, 38 (16.10%), 27 (11.44%), 22 (9.32%), 15 (6.36%), 17 (7.20%), and 3 (1.27%) cases were related to drugs/toxicants, infection, congenital/vascular/biliary diseases, genetic metabolic diseases, tumor-related, and autoimmune diseases. In addition, the overall etiological distribution did not change statistically with factors such as gender, age, and seasonal onset (P > 0.05), while the difference in different living environments was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Different initial-diagnosed departments had different etiological rates, with liver transplantation department being the highest (78.26%), and pediatrics department the lowest (26.09%). In 122 children with definite etiology, there was no significant difference in gender ratio between the different etiology groups (P>0.05), but there were significant differences in age, living environment and seasonal onset (P < 0.05). Among them, congenital development/vascular/biliary tract and infectivity were the main factors in children < 3 years old, and drug/toxin-related factors were the main factors in children > 3 years old. Most of the rural children had drug/toxin and infection-related etiology, while most of the urban children had tumor and drug/toxin-related etiology. In summer and autumn, drug/toxicant correlation was dominant, while in winter and spring, infection correlation was dominant. In the unknown etiology group, the clinical cure + improvement rate between the medical treatment group and the surgical treatment group was not statistically significant (37.50% vs. 20.00%, P > 0.05), while in the definite etiology group, the above differences were statistically significant (43.96% vs. 83.87%, P < 0.05). Among the different etiology groups, the congenital/vascular/biliary group had the best short-term efficacy (72.72%, 16/22), followed by the drug/toxicity-related group (60.53%, 23/38), and the tumor-related group had the worst (23.53%, 4/17). Conclusion: The definite etiology of acute liver failure in about half of children is still vague. The population distribution of children with definite etiology is related to age, living environment and season, but not to gender. However, the different ages, different living environments, and different seasonal onsets have definite etiology, and the short-term clinical efficacy of the treatment is significantly improved after the definite etiology is identified.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the correlation between alcohol drinking and high-risk sexual behaviors in HIV negative clients of female sex workers and provide scientific evidence for prevention of HIV sexual transmission. Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in HIV negative clients in Ji'nan and Haikou from December 2018 to May 2019. The estimated sample size was 337, the information about their demographic characteristics, AIDS knowledge awareness, sexual behaviors and alcohol drinking habit were collected through convenience sampling. The data were analyzed by using SPSS 24.0 software. Results: A total of 381 clients were included in this study. Most of them were less than 40 years old, accounting for 89.2% (340/381); 85.3% of them (325/381) reported an education level of high school and above; the clients who were married, had cohabitation with females or had girl friends accounted for 53.2% (202/380). The overall awareness rate of AIDS knowledge was 83.7% (318/380). Of all participants, 80.8% (308/381) had commercial sex in the past year, 79.8% (304/381) had non-commercial sex partners, 62.7% (239/381) had high-risk sexual behaviors. The results of logistic regression showed that compared with those with alcohol drinking frequency ≤2 times per month in last year, the clients with alcohol drinking frequency more than once a week (aOR=3.22, 95%CI: 1.25-8.27) were more likely to have high risk sexual behaviors after adjustment for age, living area, location type of residence, time of local residence, education level, monthly income level, occupation, marital status, knowledge awareness of AIDS and HIV related services, the number of commercial or non-commercial sexual partners in the past year, cost of commercial sex and HIV test frequency. Conclusions: Alcohol drinking is related to high risk sexual behaviors in HIV negative clients, and will increase the risk of HIV transmission. To control AIDS, the intervention of alcohol drinking should be combined with other preventions to improve the correct use of condoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE MiR-1 has been reported to act as an inhibitory microRNA in gastric cancer (GC). This study aimed to investigate the regulatory mechanism by which miR-1-3p blocks the progression of GC by targeting stanniocalcin 2 (STC2). PATIENTS AND METHODS The expression level of miR-1-3p in GC was assessed via quantitative Real Time-Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR). Expressions of STC2 were measured by qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Proliferation and invasion assays were detected by MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide) and transwell assays, respectively. Moreover, the dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to confirm the binding sites between miR-1-3p and STC2. RESULTS MiR-1-3p was significantly down-regulated in GC. Moreover, abnormal expression of miR-1-3p was correlated with GC tumor size. Functionally, overexpression of miR-1-3p inhibited proliferation and invasion in GC by inhibiting stanniocalcin 2 (STC2) expressions. In contrast, STC2 was significantly up-regulated in GC. Furthermore, miR-1-3p negatively regulated STC2 expression in GC. The upregulation of STC2 weakened the inhibitory effect of miR-1-3p in GC. CONCLUSIONS MiR-1-3p suppressed cell proliferation and invasion by targeting STC2 in GC, providing a novel therapeutic target for GC.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of children with haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) with central nervous system (CNS) involvement, and to investigate the correlation with clinical biochemical tests. MATERIAL AND METHODS Clinical and MRI data were collected from 118 children with HLH-CNS between January 2012 and June 2019. Patients were grouped according to their MRI findings, and statistical methods were used to test for correlations between the MRI findings and biochemical variables. RESULTS Patients were divided into three groups, including normal appearance (Group 1, 17/118), diffuse parenchymal volume loss (Group 2, 44/118), and brain parenchyma lesions (Group 3, 57/118) containing three subtypes of brain lesions and HLH-CNS complications. Comparing biochemical values among the three groups revealed a significant difference for all values (p<0.05), except for cell counts in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). A pairwise comparison further showed significant inter-group differences for most of the variables. Spearman's rank correlation coefficient also demonstrated that CSF cell counts (r=0.193, p=0.036), CSF microprotein content (r=0.379, p<0.001), serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST; r=0.521, p<0.001), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; r=0.514, p<0.001) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT; r=0.326, p<0.001) correlated positively with the MRI groups, while platelet count (PLT; r=-0.633, p<0.001) and plasma fibrinogen (FIB; r=-0.258, p=0.005) correlated negatively. CONCLUSION Classification of brain MRI findings of HLH-CNS correlates well with the results of several key biochemical tests. Brain MRI is a promising method to elucidate illness severity and clinical outcomes.

Abstract
The striped rice stem borer, Chilo suppressalis Walker, is one of the most destructive rice pests in Asia. Insecticidal crystal proteins (Cry toxins) produced by Bacillus thuringiensis are widely used as biopesticides or in developing transgenic crops for pest management. In this study, we tested the involvement of two newly cloned C. suppressalis cadherins (CsCAD3 and CsCAD4) in the toxicity of Cry1Ab/Ac, Cry2Aa and Cry1Ca. Our results showed that CsCAD4 was expressed highest in the midgut, whereas CsCAD3 was expressed highest in the epidermis. The feeding of double-stranded RNA specific to CsCAD3 and CsCAD4 respectively significantly suppressed the expressions of target gene. The knockdown of CsCAD3 significantly reduced the mortality of larvae to Cry1Ab/Ac, whereas knockdown of CsCAD4 significantly decreased the larval susceptibility to Cry2Aa. In contrast, reduced expressions of CsCAD3 or CsCAD4 were not interacted with larval susceptibility to Cry1Ca. Our results suggest that CsCAD3 and CsCAD4 function in Cry toxin toxicity and these findings will help us to better understand the action mechanism of Cry toxins in C. suppressalis.

Abstract
Specialized computational chemistry packages have permanently reshaped the landscape of chemical and materials science by providing tools to support and guide experimental efforts and for the prediction of atomistic and electronic properties. In this regard, electronic structure packages have played a special role by using first-principle-driven methodologies to model complex chemical and materials processes. Over the past few decades, the rapid development of computing technologies and the tremendous increase in computational power have offered a unique chance to study complex transformations using sophisticated and predictive many-body techniques that describe correlated behavior of electrons in molecular and condensed phase systems at different levels of theory. In enabling these simulations, novel parallel algorithms have been able to take advantage of computational resources to address the polynomial scaling of electronic structure methods. In this paper, we briefly review the NWChem computational chemistry suite, including its history, design principles, parallel tools, current capabilities, outreach, and outlook.

Result:Compared group B with A, AHI, BMI, LSaO2, Epworth sleepiness scale(ESS) score, the amino acid homocysteine, the prevalence of hypertension, type 2 diabetes, the prevalence of acute myocardial infarction(ami) and vascular lesions and SYNTAX score increased significantly(P<0.05). The ejection fraction decreased significantly(P<0.05). The BNP(Brain natriuretic peptide) and cTNT(cardiac troponin, cTn) concentration there was no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05). CPAP treatment(30.0±4.2) months later, Group B: CAPA + conventional treatment group, compared with the simple routine LSaO2, ejection fraction increased significantly(P<0.05), AHI, cardiovascular adverse events, vascular lesions, SYNTAX score, the BNP and TNT concentration significantly reduced(P<0.05); Group A: AHI, decreased significantly(P<0.05), LSaO2increased significantly(P<0.05), ejection fraction, cardiovascular adverse events, vascular lesions, SYNTAX score, there was no significant difference between the BNP and TNT concentration; Survival analysis showed that: Group A CPAP+conventional treatment group cumulative survival rate higher than the conventional treatment group, but there was no statistically significant difference(P=0.260). Group B: CPAP+conventional treatment group total survival rate was significantly higher than that of the conventional treatment group(P<0.001); Conclusion:With the increase of the severity of OSA, OSA merge CHD coronary artery pathological changes degree aggravating, CPAP therapeutic benefit the long-term prognosis of CHD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the regulatory effect of long non-coding ribonucleic acid (lncRNA) FER1L4 on biological behaviors of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cells, such as proliferation and invasion. PATIENTS AND METHODS The expressions of FER1L4 were detected in 42 pairs of ESCC tissues and corresponding para-carcinoma tissues and 5 kinds of ESCC cell lines via quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Polyethyleneimine (PEI) and liposomes were used for FER1L4 expression or interference elimination assays, respectively. The proliferation and invasion of ESCC cells were detected via MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide), apoptosis assay, cell cycle assay, and transwell chamber. RESULTS Results of qRT-PCR showed that, compared with that in normal tissues, FER1L4 was lowly expressed in ESCC tissues. Overexpression of FER1L4 could inhibit cell proliferation and invasion, promote apoptosis and increase the cell cycle distribution in G0/G1 phase. Knockout of FER1L4 could promote the proliferation and invasion of ESCC cells, inhibit apoptosis and decrease the cell cycle distribution in G0/G1 phase. CONCLUSIONS FER1L4 is involved in the occurrence and development of ESCC and plays a key role as a tumor suppressor gene in ESCC.

Abstract
CXCR5 mediates homing of both B and follicular helper T (TFH) cells into follicles of secondary lymphoid organs. We found that CXCR5+CD8+ T cells are present in human tonsils and follicular lymphoma, inhibit TFH-mediated B cell differentiation, and exhibit strong cytotoxic activity. Consistent with these findings, adoptive transfer of CXCR5+CD8+ T cells into an animal model of lymphoma resulted in significantly greater antitumor activity than CXCR5-CD8+ T cells. Furthermore, RNA-Seq-based transcriptional profiling revealed 77 differentially expressed genes unique to CXCR5+CD8+ T cells. Among these, a signature comprised of 33 upregulated genes correlated with improved survival in follicular lymphoma patients. We also showed that CXCR5+CD8+ T cells could be induced and expanded ex vivo using IL-23 plus TGF-β, suggesting a possible strategy to generate these cells for clinical application. In summary, our study identified CXCR5+CD8+ T cells as a distinct T cell subset with ability to suppress TFH-mediated B cell differentiation, exert strong antitumor activity, and confer favorable prognosis in follicular lymphoma patients.
