Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of intrathyroid thymic carcinoma (ITTC). Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 21 patients with ITTC diagnosed and treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to July 2023, including 9 males and 12 females, with a median age of 52 years (40-60 years old). Results: There is a correlation between the maximum diameter of the tumor (≥40 mm) and lymph node metastasis (P=0.044). Seventeen patients received surgical treatment, and 4 patients only received chemotherapy. During the follow-up period, a total of 4 patients experienced death or progression, with a 2-year mortality or progression free survival rate of 74.8%. Conclusions: The prognosis of ITTC is good, and surgical treatment is the preferred treatment option, lymph node metastasis is significantly correlated with prognosis. The radiotherapy and chemotherapy of ITTC need to be determined based on the patient's condition.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) combined with gabapentin in the treatment of acute herpetic neuralgia (AHN). Methods: A total of 123 AHN patients were retrospectively selected in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from November 2019 to July 2022, who were divided into two groups based on treatment methods: control group (treated with gabapentin, n=61) and study group (treated with gabapentin and PRF, n=62). The visual analog scale (VAS) was utilized for pain severity assessment and the self-rating scale for sleep (SRSS) was utilized for sleep quality evaluation. The differences in serum levels of interleukin (IL)-10, chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL-10), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), IL-2 and IL-6 before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. The overall treatment effectiveness and the occurrence rates of postherpetic neuralgia and adverse reactions were evaluated in both groups. Results: Among the study group patients, 28 were male and 34 were female, and the age was (62.8±8.5) years. Among the control group patients, 35 were male and 26 were female, and the age was (64.0±7.8) years. The VAS scores of the study group before and after treatment were 7.96±1.33 and 1.52±0.60, respectively, while the control group were 7.68±1.52 and 2.70±0.64. The SRSS scores before and after treatment in the study group were 31.74±5.90 and 12.06±2.81, respectively, while those in the control group were 33.10±5.54 and 14.14±2.96, respectively. Before treatment, there were no statistically differences of the VAS scores and SRSS scores in both groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the VAS scores and SRSS scores in both groups decreased compared with before treatment (all P<0.05), the study group's VAS scores and SRSS scores were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). Before treatment, there were no statistically differences of the serum levels of IL-10, CXCL-10, PGE2, COX-2, IL-2 and IL-6 in both groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of IL-10, CXCL-10, PGE2, COX-2 and IL-6 in both groups decreased compared with before treatment, while the IL-2 level increased. Additionally, the study group had lower serum levels of IL-10, PGE2, COX-2 and IL-6 compared with the control group (all P<0.05). After treatment, the study group had 35 cases of cure, 26 cases of effectiveness, and 1 case of ineffectiveness, while the control group had 22 cases of cure, 31 cases of effectiveness, and 8 cases of ineffectiveness. The overall treatment efficacy of the study group was better than that of the control group (P=0.012). The incidence of postherpetic neuralgia in the study group after treatment was 16.1% (10/62), which was lower than that in the control group, which was 37.7% (23/61) (P<0.05). There were no statistically differences of the occurrence rates of adverse reactions in both groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Combining PRF with gabapentin for the treatment of AHN demonstrates better overall efficacy and safety, which can more effectively alleviate pain, improve sleep, and reduce inflammatory cytokine levels.

Abstract
Pre-chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Pre-COPD) refers to individuals with chronic respiratory symptoms, structural abnormalities, and/or functional abnormalities, in the absence of airflow limitation, who may develop persistent airflow limitation over time. COPD is characterized by high prevalence and great heterogeneity and complexity. Early multidimensional identification and promotion of early prevention, management and treatment of Pre-COPD can help delay or halt the development of COPD, which has significant public health implications. This review aimed to summarize the definition, relevant cohorts, clinical trials, and other research progress in pre-COPD in order to improve the understanding of individuals with pre-COPD and improve early prevention and management of COPD.

Abstract
To investigate the common specific immunoglobulin E(sIgE) in children with eczema and urticaria, compare the allergies in children with different diseases, genders and ages, and provide the scientific basis for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment. A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the children who were suspected of eczema and urticaria and tested for serum sIgE in the Tianjin Children's Hospital from December 2019 to August 2021. A total of 8 092 serum samples were tested for ten food allergens and ten inhaled allergens. The method was the enzyme-linked immune capture assay. The allergen epidemiological characteristics were statistically analyzed by Chi square test based on the children's characteristics and factors such as different sexes and ages and by the mass data. The results showed that the positive rate of eczema was 64.42%(5 213/8 092), and the urticaria was 35.58%(2 879/8 092). The positive rate of specific IgE was 66.65%(5 393/8 092), the food allergens was 61.74%(4 996/8 092), and the inhaled allergens was 34.85%(2 820/8 092). The top three positive rates of food allergens were egg 46.65%(3 775/8 092), milk 32.64%(2 641/8 092) and wheat flour 15.08%(1 220/8 092). The top three positive rates of inhaled allergens were house dust 21.40%(1 732/8 092), Alternaria 11.78%(953/8 092) and Dermatophagoides farinae 7.33%(593/8 092). The positivity of food allergens and inhaled allergens was significantly different in different age groups. The positive rates of food allergens in different age groups were 48.92%(947/1 936) in<1 year old, 72.28%(2 680/3 708) in 1-3 years old, 64.58%(919/1 423) in 4-6 years old and 43.90%(450/1 025) in>6 years old. The positive rates of inhaled allergens in different age groups were 17.67%(342/1 936) in<1 year old, 36.35%(1 348/3 708) in 1-3 years old, 46.38%(660/1 423) in 4-6 years old and 45.85%(470/1 025) in>6 years old. The top six positive rates of allergens of eczema were the same with urticaria, which were egg, milk, house dust, wheat flour, Alternaria and Dermatophagoides farinae. The allergens (greater than or equal to grade 4) differed in children with eczema and urticaria. Moreover, there were significant differences in the positive rates of Alternaria, egg, wheat flour, crab and shrimp. In conclusion, this study can reflect the epidemic characteristics of allergens in children with eczema and urticaria to a certain extent. There were significant differences in the positive rates of allergens between different age groups. It is necessary to reasonably avoid the high-risk allergens according to the epidemiological characteristics and clinical symptoms, which provide valuable information for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of allergic diseases.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of high-voltage pulse radiofrequency combined with pregabalin on severe thoracic postherpetic neuralgia (PHN). Methods: A total of 103 patients with PHN who were admitted to the Department of Pain Medicine of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from May 2020 to May 2022 were retrospectively selected, including 50 males and 53 females, and aged 40 to 79 (65.4±9.2) years. The patients were divided into two groups according to the treatment methods they received: the control group (n=51) and the study group (n=52). The patients in the control group were treated with oral pregabalin, and the patients in the study group received pregabalin plus high-voltage pulse radiofrequency therapy. The pain intensity and efficacy of the two groups were evaluated before treatment and 4 weeks after treatment. The pain intensity, the sleep quality and the efficacy of treatment was evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score and nimodipine method, respectively. The levels of pain mediators including serum neuropeptide Y (NPY), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), substance P (SP) and β-endorphin were measured. The differences of the above indicators and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Results: The VAS scores of the study group and the control group before treatment were 7.94±0.76 and 8.20±0.81, and PSQI scores were 16.84±3.90 and 16.29±3.84, respectively, with no statistically significant differences (both P>0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the VAS scores of the two groups were 2.84±0.80 and 3.35±0.87, and PSQI scores were 6.78±1.90 and 7.98±2.40, respectively, and the VAS score and PSQI score in the study group were lower than those in the control group (both P<0.05). There were no significant differences of the serum levels of NPY, PGE2, SP and β-endorphin before treatment in the study group and control group (all P>0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the levels of NPY, PGE2, SP and β-Endorphin in the study group were (240.7±26.8) ng/L, (74.4±8.6) μg/L, (108.9±15.7) ng/L and (4.4±0.9) ng/L, which were lower than those in the control group [(268.1±29.4) ng/L, (79.7±8.3) μg/L, (115.2±16.2) ng/L, (5.2±1.3) ng/L, respectively], with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). After treatment, 29 cases were cured, 16 cases were markedly effective and 6 cases were effective in the study group, while 16 cases, 24 cases and 8 cases were cured, markedly effective and effective in the control group, respectively. The overall efficacy of patients in the study group was better than that in the control group (Z=-2.32, P=0.018). The incidence of adverse reactions in the study group and control group was 11.5% (6/52) and 7.8% (4/51), respectively, with no statistically significant difference (χ2=0.40, P=0.527). Conclusion: High-voltage pulse radiofrequency combined with pregabalin can significantly improve the pain intensity and sleep quality of patients with severe thoracic PHN and reduce the levels of pain mediators, with a high safety profile.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the anatomical basis for the preparation of the profunda artery perforator flap (PAPF) in the posteromedial femoral region and its application in the reconstruction of oral and maxillofacial defects. Methods: Six lower limbs of Chinese adult cadavers were micro-surgically dissected. CT angiography (CTA) data of bilateral lower limbs of 6 patients was also collected retrospectively. The number, external diameter, pedicle length, and distribution of perforators in the posteromedial femoral region were recorded from the specimens and CTA data. Meanwhile, 10 patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Stomatology, Nanjing Medical University from August 2018 to June 2021 were treated with the PAPF. At each follow-up, contour and function of recipient and donor site, as well as swallowing and speech function were evaluated. Results: A total of 19 profunda artery perforator were identified in 6 lower limb specimens. The outer diameter at the beginning of the source artery was (2.34±0.25) mm and the total length of the pedicle was (11.12±1.06) cm. CTA data analysis of 12 legs identified 15 perforators of profunda artery in the posteromedial region. Eleven perforators were septocutaneous, including 2 perforators with a common trunk, while the remaining 4 perforators were musculocutaneous. As for different patterns of perforators (septocutaneous perforators, musculocutaneous perforators and perforators with a common trunk), the longitudinal distance to the pubic tubercle was (19.95±2.43), (21.84±2.54) and (19.48±0.55) cm respectively. The horizontal distance to the posterior edge of gracilis was (3.54±1.10), (3.72±0.30) and (3.85±1.48) cm, respectively. The initial diameters of perforators was (2.4±0.4), (2.6±0.6) and 1.9 mm respectively. Ten cases of the profunda artery perforator flaps survived successfully after operation. The flap sizes ranged from 8 cm×6 cm to 12 cm×7 cm. The patients were evaluated at 1, 3 and 6 months, and with 6 months interval ever since. During the follow-up, the shape of the recipient site was ideal, and the swallowing and language functions were not significantly affected. There was only linear scar in the donor area, and the function of the thigh was basically normal. Conclusions: PAPF possessed a good anatomic stability, suitable vascular pedicle length and diameter, minor influence to the donor area, sufficient amount tissue with good quality. It is an ideal choice for head and neck reconstruction.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological features and differential diagnosis of NTRK3 gene rearrangement thyroid papillary carcinoma (PTC). Methods: The PTC cases without BRAF V600E mutation were collected at Fujian Provincial Hospital South Branch from January 2015 to January 2020. The cases of NTRK3 gene rearrangement PTC were examined using immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The clinical data, histopathological characteristics, immunohistochemical features and molecular pathological changes were retrospectively analyzed. Data from the TCGA PTC dataset and the literature were also studied. Results: A total of 3 PTC cases harboring NTRK3 gene rearrangement were confirmed. All the patients were female, aged from 26,49,34 years. Histologically, two of them demonstrated a multinodular growth pattern. Only one case showed prominent follicular growth pattern; the other two tumors showed a mixture of follicular, papillary and solid growth patterns. All tumors showed a typical PTC nuclear manifestation, with some nuclear pleomorphism, vacuolated foci and oncocytic features. The characteristic formation of glomeruloid follicular foci was present in two cases which also showed psammoma bodies, and tumoral capsular or angiolymphatic invasion. The background thyroid parenchyma showed chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis. Mitotic rates were low, and no cases had any tumor necrosis. The pan-TRK and TTF1 testing was both positive in 3 cases, while S-100 and mammaglobin were both negative in them. FISH studies confirmed the NTRK3 gene rearrangement in all 3 cases. Studies on the TCGA datasets and literature revealed similar findings. Conclusions: NTRK3 gene rearrangement PTC is rare. It may be easily misdiagnosed due to the lack of histological and clinicopathological characteristics. Molecular studies such as pan-TRK immunostaining, FISH and even next-generation sequencing are needed to confirm the diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry of pan-TRK performed in the PTC cases without BRAF V600E mutation can be used as a good rapid-screening tool. With the emergence of pan-cancer tyrosine receptor kinase inhibitors, proper diagnosis of these tumors can help determine appropriate treatments and improve their outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explain the clinicobiological heterogeneity of NPM1 mutated (NPM1mut) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by analyzing the association between next-generation sequencing (NGS) profiles and MICM characteristics in patients with this AML subtype. METHODS Data of 238 NPM1mut patients with available NGS information on 112 genes related to blood disease was collected, and χ2 test and nonparametric test were used to analyze the distribution association between NGS-detecting mutations and conventional MICM parameters. RESULTS In entire NPM1mut cohort, totaling 240 NPM1 mutation events were identified, of whom 10 (10/240, 4.2%) were missense mutations, which did not involve any W288 or W290 locus and were found exclusively in NPM1mut/FLT3-ITD- group. All but one of these missense mutations (9/10, 90%) were accompanied by AML subtype-defining recurrent cytogenetic or molecular abnormalities, of which 7 cases were in the low risk and 2 in the high risk. NPM1mut occurred solely as an insertion/deletion (indel) type in the NPM1mut/FLT3-ITD+ group. The incidence of favorable plus unfavorable karyotypes in NPM1mut/FLT3-ITD- group was higher than in NPM1mut/FLT3-ITD+ group (6.4% vs. 0, P=0.031). The positive rates of CD34 and CD7 in NPM1mut/FLT3-ITD+ group were significantly higher than in NPM1mut/FLT3-ITD- group (CD34: 47.9% vs. 20.6%, P<0.001; CD7: 61.5% vs. 29.9%, P<0.001). Logistic analysis showed that FLT3-ITD independently predicted for CD34+ and CD7+ [odds ratio (OR)=5.29, 95%CI: 2.64-10.60, P<0.001; OR=3.47, 95%CI: 1.79-6.73, P<0.001; respectively]. Ras-pathway mutations independently predicted for HLA-DR+ (OR=4.05, 95%CI: 1.70-9.63, P=0.002), and KRAS mutation for MPO- (OR=0.18, 95%CI: 0.05-0.62, P=0.007). TET2/IDH1 mutations independently predicted for CD34- and CD7- (OR=0.26, 95%CI: 0.11-0.62, P=0.002; OR=0.30, 95%CI: 0.14-0.62, P=0.001; respectively), and MPO+ (OR=3.52, 95%CI: 1.48-8.38, P=0.004). DNMT3A-R882 independently predicted for CD7+ and HLA-DR+ (OR=3.59, 95%CI: 1.80-7.16, P<0.001; OR=13.41, 95%CI: 4.56-39.45, P<0.001; respectively), and DNMT3A mutation for MPO-(OR=0.35, 95%CI: 1.48-8.38, P=0.004). CONCLUSION Co-existing FLT3-ITD in NPM1mut AML independently predicts for CD34+ and CD7+, co-existing Ras-pathway mutation for HLA-DR+ and MPO-, co-existing TET2/IDH1 mutation for CD34-, CD7-, and MPO+, and co-existing DNMT3A mutation for HLA-DR+, CD7+, and MPO-, thereby providing a new mechanism explanation for the immunophenotypic heterogeneity of these AML patients.

Abstract
Ceramic implants have superior performance due to the excellent wear resistance and biocompatibility. However, the poor machinability limits their applications. Plasma sprayed ceramic coating on the additively manufactured metal substrate not only provides a 3-dimensional conformal implant coating and but also forms a highly wear-resistant surface layer. In this paper, three types of ceramic coatings of Al2O3, ZrO2, and Al2O3-ZrO2 composite have been fabricated by atmosphere plasma spray on the CoCrMo alloy substrate prepared by selective laser melting (SLM). It has been found that the Al2O3-ZrO2 composite coating has better corrosion and wear resistance compared with the ceramic coating (Al2O3, ZrO2) and the CoCrMo substrate. The adhesion strength between the Al2O3-ZrO2 composite coating and the substrate reaches 238 MPa. In addition, the wear and corrosion resistance increase with wear progression for all the fabricated ceramic coatings. The highly dense microstructure, fewer microcracks, and the amorphous phases are deterministic factors responsible for the superior tribological and corrosion performance of the Al2O3-ZrO2 composite coating. The fabrication route has been proved very promising to manufacture high-performance implants with ceramic coating.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the clinical pathological characteristics and incidence of thyroid cancer. Methods: The clinical and pathological data of 21 980 thyroid cancer patients who underwent surgery in the Department of Thyroid Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2012 to December 2018, including the gender, age, pathological type, tumor size, tumor number, central and lateral lymph node metastasis, was retrospectively analyzed. Results: There were 16 895 females and 5 085 males (gender ratio: 3.3 to 1), aged 4 to 95 (47.6±11.8) years old. Except for 2012, the average onset age of females was higher than that of males, and both genders showed a trend of early onset over time (females: Z=-2.703, P=0.007; males: Z=-3.004, P=0.003). The proportion of female aged 25 to 39 and male aged 20 to 39 was increasing, but the proportion of both genders aged over 60 was decreasing (all P<0.05). With the increase of tumor length and diameter, the positive rate of central lymph nodes metastasis (Z=-2.205, P=0.027) and lateral lymph node metastasis (Z=-2.205, P=0.027) gradually increased. Conclusions: The onset age of thyroid cancer exhibited a much younger trend, with an increasing proportion of women aged 25-39 and men aged 20-39. Therefore, it should be suggested to strengthen the screening of people in the corresponding age range. The newly diagnosed thyroid cancer was mainly thyroid micropapillary carcinoma, with a high proportion of lymph node metastasis and multiple foci, and thus the optimal treatment methods need to be carefully considered.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical and pathological characteristics of IgG4-related ophthalmic disease (IgG4-ROD) involving the lacrimal gland. Methods: A retrospective case series study. Forty cases (56 eyes) of lacrimal gland lesions were collected in Tianjin Eye Hospital from January 2003 to January 2018 and confirmed by histopathology as lymphocyte and plasma cell infiltration with fibrosis of lacrimal gland tissue, excluding lymphoma, epithelial tumor, mesenchymal tumor and metastasis tumor. The clinical manifestations, serological and imaging examination of the patients were analyzed. Meanwhile, HE staining and immunohistochemical staining of IgG and IgG4 were performed on the pathological specimens. According to the diagnostic criteria, the cases were divided into the IgG4-ROD group and the non-IgG4-ROD group. The clinical and pathological characteristics of the two groups were statistically analyzed by Pearson chi-square and signed-rank test. Results: In the 40 cases (56 eyes), there were 15 cases (25 eyes) of IgG4-ROD and 25 cases (31 eyes) of non-IgG4-ROD. Statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in the clinical and pathological characteristics (all P<0.05). About the distribution of eyes position, there were 10 binocular cases and 5 monocular cases in the IgG4-ROD group, and 6 binocular cases and 19 monocular cases in non-IgG4-ROD group (χ2=7.111).There were 21 eyes in the IgG4-ROD group and 5 eyes in the non-IgG4-ROD group about ptosis (χ2=25.631), 4 eyes in the IgG4-ROD group and 21 eyes in the non-IgG4-ROD group about ocular protrusion (χ2=14.992), 23 eyes in the IgG4-ROD group and 15 eyes in the non-IgG4-ROD group about the clear boundary of the tumor (χ2=12.069), 4 eyes in the IgG4-ROD group and 18 eyes in the non-IgG4-ROD group about the involvement of other orbital tissues (χ2=10.266) and 7 cases in the IgG4-ROD group and 3 cases in the non-IgG4-ROD group about the association with other systemic diseases (χ2=6.009). Compared with the non-IgG4-ROD group, the IgG4-ROD group had a heavier lymphocyte and plasma cell infiltration (+++,++,+; 10, 4, 1 vs. 6, 5, 12 eyes, Z=-3.153), and more lymphoid follicles (+++,++,+; 3, 6, 4 vs. 1, 2, 7 eyes, Z=-3.339), interstitial fibrosis was mostly striate (10 vs. 5 eyes, χ2=8.711), and there were a large number of IgG4+ plasma cells [96 (67, 135) vs. 4 (0, 12) cells per high power field, Z=-5.271] and ratio of IgG4+ plasma cells/IgG+ plasma cells [0.570 (0.500, 0.754) vs. 0.046 (0.000, 0.143), Z=-5.268, all P<0.05). Among the 10 cases of IgG4-ROD with serological examination, 9 cases showed elevated serum in IgG and IgG4. The ultrasonography and CT findings showed the lacrimal gland lesions in the IgG4-ROD group were mostly spindle or kidney shaped with clear boundaries, while the lesions in non-IgG4-ROD were mostly round or irregular with unclear boundaries. Conclusions: The lacrimal gland lesions of IgG4-ROD are characterized by bilaterally spindle or kidney shaped enlargement with clear boundaries. They are more associates with other systemic diseases. The pathological characteristics are a large number of IgG4+ plasma cells infiltration among the lacrimal gland tissue, interstitial striate fibrosis and a large number of lymphoid follicles.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and prognostic factors in core binding factor (CBF) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) under current therapy modalities, therefore optimizing the treatment strategies. Methods: Standard cytological and immune methods including next generation sequencing (NGS) were used for risk stratification. Complete remission (CR) rate, disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were assessed by multivariate Logistic and Cox regression models in a total of 206 adults (aged 16-65 years) with CBF-AML, including 152 AML patients with t(8;21) and 54 with inv(16). Results: The CR rate of inv(16) patients after first course was 54/54(100%), significantly higher than that of t(8;21) patients [127/147(86.4%), P=0.005]. The fusion transcript level and KIT mutation were independent factors related to CR rate in t(8;21) patients (P=0.044 and 0.027; respectively). DFS and OS in inv(16) patients tended to be more superior than that in t(8;21) patients (P=0.066 for DFS; P=0.306 for OS; respectively). Multivariate Cox identified negative expression of CD(19) and female gender the independent predictors of inferior DFS in t(8;21) patients (P=0.000 for CD(19); P=0.006 for sex; respectively). Analysis of combining CD(19) with gender indicated that females/CD(1)(9-)subpopulation had significantly poor DFS than did males/CD(19)(+) ones (Bonferroni-P<0.000 01). The number of mutations in each patient, FLT3-ITD and additional karyotype abnormalities did not affect CR rate and DFS (all P>0.05). Conclusions: Patients with inv(16) have better induction response than those with t(8;21). High level of fusion transcripts and positive KIT mutation are associated with low CR rate in t(8;21) patients. Negative CD(19) expression and female gender are independent predictors of inferior DFS in t(8;21) patients.

Abstract
Background
New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) complicating acute myocardial infarction (AMI) can be associated with adverse cardiovascular events. The prognostic implication of the burden of atrial fibrillation has been investigated in various settings.
Purpose
We aimed to explore the association of the burden of post-MI NOAF with the risk of adverse cardiovascular events during hospitalization.
Methods
All consecutive patients admitted forAMI between February 2014 and February 2018 were analyzed by continuous electronic monitoring (CEM) through hospitalization. AF burden was calculated by dividing the total AF duration by the total CEM duration. Patients were divided into 3 groups: sinus rhythm group, low burden (AF burden≤8.5%) group, and high burden (AF burden>8.5%) group. The primary outcome was a composite of in-hospital all-cause death, recurrent MI, acute heart failure, or cardiogenic shock.
Results
Overall, 2405 patients (mean age: 65.8 years; male: 76.6%) were included. NOAF was documented in 11.6% of patients, and the primary outcome was recorded in 288 patients (13.6%) of the sinus rhythm group, 42 (30.0%) in the low burden group, and 71 (50.7%) in the high burden group. Compared with patients with sinus rhythm, a greater burden of NOAF was associated with a higher risk of the primary outcome after multivariable analysis (low burden: hazard ratio, 1.22; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.87–1.70; high burden: hazard ratio, 1.90; 95% CI: 1.43–2.51; p for trend<0.001).

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the optimal duration of pegylated-alpha interferon (Peg-INFα) combined with ribavirin (RBV) in treating chronic hepatitis C infection in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. Methods: A multicenter prospective study was conducted. The study subjects were divided into two groups; HIV/HCV co-infections (Group A, n = 158) and control with HCV-monoinfections (Group B, n = 60). All recruited patients received standard Peg-INFα plus RBV therapy. Group A was divided into 3 subgroups according to CD4(+) cell counts: A1 subgroup, 79 cases, CD4(+) counts > 350 cells /μl, who received anti-HCV before combination antiretroviral therapy(cART); A2 subgroup, 45 cases, CD4(+) counts between 200 and 350 cells/μl, who did not start anti-HCV until they could tolerate cART well; A3 subgroup, 34 cases, CD4(+) counts < 200 cells /μl, cART was administered first, and anti-HCV therapy was started when CD4(+) counts > 200 cells/μl. The anti-HCV efficacy of two groups and 3 subgroups were compared. Statistical analysis for normal distribution and homogeneity of variance data was calculated by t-test and the counting data was analyzed by χ (2) test. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for non-normal data. A one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used for the comparison of multiple groups, followed by SNK method. Multiple independent samples were used for non-parametric tests. Results: There was no significant difference in age and baseline HCV RNA levels between groups and subgroups (P > 0.05). By an intent-to-treat (ITT) analysis, in Group A, the ratio of complete early virological response (cEVR) rate was 75.3% (119/158), the ratio of end of treatment virological response (eTVR) rate was 68.4% (108/158), and the ratio of sustained virological response (SVR) rate was 48.7% (77/158); in Group B, the ratio of cEVR rate was 93.3% (56/60), the ratio of eTVR rate was 90.0% (54/60), and the ratio of SVR rate was 71.7% (43/60); The therapeutic index of Group A were lower than those of Group B (P≤0.05). By per-protocol (PP) analysis, the ratio of cEVR rate in Group A [75.2% (88/112)] was still lower than that in Group B [93.3% (56/60)], but no significant differences were found in the ratio of eTVR rate and SVR rate between 2 groups (P > 0.05). Comparing the efficacy of subgroups (A1, A2 and A3) by ITT analysis, the ratios of cEVR rate were respectively 78.5% (62/79), 75.6% (34/45) and 67.6% (23/34); the ratios of eTVR rate were respectively 68.4%(54/79), 80.0%(36/45)and 52.9%(18/34); and the ratios of SVR rate were respectively 41.8%(33/79), 64.4%(29/45)and 44.1%(15/34). The ratio of eTVR in subgroup A2 was obviously higher than that in subgroup A3 and the ratio of SVR in subgroup A2 was statistically higher than that of subgroup A1(P≤0.05). However, by PP analysis, no significant differences of the therapeutic indexes were found among the respective subgroups (P > 0.05). Conclusion: HIV-HCV co-infected patients would have better anti-HCV efficacy with Peg-INFα-2a plus RBV than HCV- monoinfected patients. The best time for initiating anti-HCV therapy in HIV-HCV co-infected patients is when CD4(+) counts 200 cells/ μl.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical pathologic characteristics of conjunctival osseous choristoma. Methods: Retrospective case series study. Six cases of conjunctival osseous choristoma between January 2009 and June 2016 from Tianjin Eye Hosptial were reviewed retrospectively. The clinical features, CT characteristics and histological characteristics were analyzed. Results: The 6 cases includes 3 male patients and 3 females. The age of the patients ranged from 4 to 20 years. Three cases involved with the right eye and the other 3 involved with the left eye. Major clinical feature of the patient is the flat uplift tumor in the superior temporal quadrant of the conjunctiva. CT features of conjunctival osseous choristoma revealed a oval calcium spot of eyeball surface. All the patients received surgery. Pathological examination showed that the tumor is composed of bone tissue which was surrounded by fibrous tissue, and Haversian canals are present in compact bone tissue. Five patients were followed for 23 months to 8 years. None of the patients relapsed after operation. Conclusions: The major feature of conjuncital osseous choristoma is a tumor in the superior temporal quadrant of conjunctiva. Imaging examination reveals a oval calcium spot of eyeball surface. Pathological examination reveals that the osseous tumor is composed of compact bone tissue which was surrounded by fibrous tissue.Haversian canals are present in compact bone tissue.Diagnosis is dependent on histopathological examination. It is not prone to relapse after complete resection surgery. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2018, 54: 661-664).

Abstract
Objective: To explore and summarize the clinical manifestation, iconographic characterizations, principles of diagnosis and treatment of orbital neurilemomas. Methods: Retrospective case series study. A total of 112 patients diagnosed with orbital neurilemomas and received surgery at Tianjin Eye Hospital from January 2002 to December 2016 were included. The clinical symptoms, eye signs, imageological examination, diagnosis treatment and prognosis of the patients were analyzed. SPSS 21.0 software was used to describe age and follow-up time. Results: In the 112 cases, 48 cases were male, 64 cases were female. At the time of diagnosis, the age of patients ranged from 13 to 73 years. The mean age at diagnosis was (40±4) years. B ultrasound scan was applied in all 112 cases, results revealed round, elliptical, beaded, and irregular shaped lesion in orbit with clear boundary, which was characterized with poor echo, strong sonolucency, and mild compressibility. CT scan was also applied in all 112 cases. The lesions were elliptical, lobulated, S-shaped, or peanut shaped, primarily characterized with evenly high density and a few with the low density fluidized region. MRI was applied in 54 cases. T(1) weighted image (T(1)WI) showed medium signal in all lesions. T(2) weighted image (T(2)WI) showed high, mixed and medium signal. Surgical approaches included lateral orbitotomy in 75 cases, and anterior orbitotmy in 37 cases. Average follow-up time was (64.3±4.1) months. Surgical complications included vison loss (in 3 cases), postoperation ptosis (in 16 cases), and disturbance of eyeballs movement (in 9 cases), while 6 cases involved with recurrence. Conclusions: Orbital schwannoma is mostly characterized with benign solid orbital lesions. Orbital CT examination results of orbital schwannoma are mainly characterized with ellipsoid or beaded mass along the anterior posterior axis of orbit, while a few of tumors showed low density liquefaction areas. T(1)WI shows medium signal in most lesions, and T(2)WI shows mixed signal in most lessions. Histopathologic examination is the basis for confirmation of diagnosis. The recurrence rate is lower after the complete resection of the tumor. Postoperative radiotherapy could be used for controlling the recurrence. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2018, 54: 509-514).

Abstract
Objective:To determine the correlation between the expression of IL-33 and significance in cancer biologial and patient's prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Method:Twenty pairs of tumor tissue and adjacent normal tissue were collected. qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry (IHC) were used to detect the expression of IL-33 mRNA and protein in tissues. Correlation between IL-33 expression with clinicopathologic features of 107 HNSCC patients were analyzed. Result:IL-33 mRNA and protein expression levels in normal tissue were higher than paired tumor tissue. IL-33 level was significantly lower in patients with advanced T stages, lymph node metastases and advanced clinical stages, IL-33 expression was higher in well differentiated tumor than moderate or poor differentiated tumor. Low IL-33 expression predicts poor prognosis. Multivariate analysis indicated that IL-33 expression was an independent predictive factor. Conclusion:IL-33 is related with the clinicopathological features in HNSCC and could be an independent predictor of HNSCC prognosis.

Abstract
Objective: To observe the immunoreaction of offspring mice by ovalbumin (OVA) re-exposure after their mothers exposed to OVA during pregnancy. Method: A prospective controlled study was conducted to observe mice after repeated OVA exposures at 6-8 weeks.Their mothers were exposed to OVA during different stages of pregnancy.The symptoms were recorded and scored.The levels of OVA-specific IgE in serum, interferon-γ(IFN-γ) and interleukin-4(IL-4) in supernatant of spleen primary lymphocytes in vitro were measured by ELISA.The results were analyzed by single factor analysis of variance or rank sum test. Result: All the mice in each group had acute diarrhea.The diarrhea happened earliest (2 days) and most severe in the late pregnancy group (early pregnancy group 7.0±1.0; middle pregnancy group: 7.1±1.1; late pregnancy group: 9.9±2.2, P<0.01). The levels of absorbance of OVA-specific IgE in the pregnancy groups were higher than those of the control group.The absorbance of OVA-specific IgE in late pregnancy group was the highest (control: 0.27±0.06; early pregnancy group: 0.51±0.13; middle pregnancy group: 0.50±0.09; late pregnancy group: 0.63±0.13, P<0.01). There was no significant change in IFN-γ expression in cultured supernatant of spleen lymphocytes in each group (control: (133±7) pg/ml; early pregnancy group: (133±4) pg/ml; middle pregnancy group: (134±6) pg/ml; late pregnancy group: (132±4) pg/ml, all P value >0.05). The expression of IL-4 in the experimental groups was higher than that in the control group, especially in late pregnancy group(control: (25.3±2.4) pg/ml; early pregnancy group: (32.4±4.4) pg/ml; middle pregnancy group: (35.0±5.4) pg/ml; late pregnancy group: (47.1±5.8) pg/ml; P value all<0.01). Conclusion: The allergic reaction of the OVA re-exposure progeny whose mothers were exposed to OVA in the late pregnancy period was most severe, suggesting that late pregnancy period might be the high risk stage of intrauterine sensitization, or"window period".

Abstract
AIM To determine the clinical non-inferiority of recombinant glargine-Basalin vs glargine-Lantus, in treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) using continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS). METHODS One hundred patients with T2DM were recruited. They were either regularly taking Basalin (Basalin group) or Lantus (Lantus group) (n = 50 each). CGMS was employed to real-time monitor blood glucose profile for 4 days (from day 1 to day 5). To exclude the effect of patient background, the study design was to have a blinded crossover from glargine-Basalin to glargine-Lantus on day 3, and vice versa. 24-hour mean blood glucose (24hMBG), 24-hour standard deviation of blood glucose (24hSDBG), 24-hour mean amplitude of glycemic excursion (24hMAGE), and number of glycemic excursion (NGE) every 24 h (24hNGE) were calculated for each glargine from 100 patients. RESULTS No significant difference of 24hMBG, 24hSDBG, 24hMAGE, and 24hNGE (p > 0.05 for all) was found between Basalin and Lantus treatments. The glucose area under the curve and time when blood glucose was below 3.9 mmol/L, between 3.9 and 10.0 mmol/L, or above 10.0 mmol/L were similar between Basalin and Lantus treatment. The frequency of hypoglycemic episodes was also similar. However, the mean cost of Basalin was only 72% of Lantus's in one treatment course. CONCLUSION Glargine-Basalin is non-inferior in clinical efficacy compared to glargine-Lantus. In view of the large difference in the cost of glargine-Basalin, it would be much more cost-effective for our patients.

Abstract
Objective: To study the tolerance to ovalbumin (OVA) in suckling mice whose mothers had different doses of docosahexenoic acid (DHA) microalgae oil (DMO) supplementation during pregnancy and lactation. Method: According to different doses of DMO fed to mother mice during pregnancy and lactation, 66 suckling mice were divided into four groups. Suckling mice whose mothers were fed with 0.7% DMO were designated as low dose group (group L) (n=16), 2.1% DMO as middle dose group (group M) (n=16), 3.5% DMO as high dose group (group H) (n=17) and no DMO as control group (n=17). Before exposing to OVA, 8 suckling mice were killed in each group at 21-day-old. Remaining suckling mice were killed at 59-day-old after repeated OVA exposure. The serum polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) levels of suckling mice were analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) at the age of 21- and 59-day.Histological examinations of jejunum were performed by HE staining and the mast cells in jejunum were observed by toluidine blue staining. OVA-IgE in serum, total IgA and OVA-IgA in the feces and IL-4 and IFN-γ in the supernatants of splenic mononuclear cells (SMC) were measured by ELISA. Real time PCR was performed to identify the gene expression of IL-10, TGF-β1 mRNA in SMC. Differences among groups were compared by one-way AVOVA and that between each group were compared by LSD. Result: In group M and H, the serum levels of n-3DHA (108±29)μg/ml; (102±34)μg/ml vs.(40±19)μg/ml (F=12.052, P=0.000)and n-3 eicosapentaenoic acid (6.7±2.3)μg/ml; (7.7±2.0)μg/ml vs. (3.9±1.1)μg/ml(F=9.573, P=0.000) were significantly higher than that in control group at the age of 21-day. The serum levels of n-3DHA were higher in group H (17.1±2.9)μg/ml than that in control group (5.9±3.3) μg/ml after repeated OVA exposure at the age of 59-day (F=10.339, P<0.000). Compared with control group (53±12) pg/ml, the levels of IL-4 in SMC in group H (42±9)pg/ml were lower (F=2.484, P<0.05). Conclusion: The serum levels of DHA in baby mice, whose mothers was fed with DMO during pregnancy and lactation, were significantly increased till adulthood. However, the effect on tolerance to OVA was limited.

Abstract
By expanding the contactless conductivity detection (CCD) technique to contactless impedance detection technique, a new contactless impedance sensor is designed to implement the online measurement for both the conductivity of a conductive fluid and the permittivity of a non-conductive fluid. In the new contactless impedance sensor, a new simulated inductor is developed to overcome the unfavorable influences of the coupling capacitances by impedance elimination principle, and the digital phase-sensitive demodulation (DPSD) technique is adopted to realize the impedance measurement. To verify the effectiveness of the new contactless impedance sensor, simulation experiments (using different resistors, capacitors, and their combinations) and practical fluid experiments (using KCl solutions with different concentrations, eight organic solvents, and pure water) are carried out. The experimental results show that the development of the new contactless impedance sensor is successful and the conductivity/permittivity measurement performance of the new sensor is satisfactory. The maximum relative error of conductivity measurement is 3.1% and the maximum relative error of permittivity measurement is 5.5%. Compared with the conventional conductivity/permittivity sensors, the new sensor can implement the contactless online measurement of both the two electrical parameters of fluid. Meanwhile, the new contactless impedance sensor is suitable for industrial applications and has the advantages of simple construction and low cost.

Abstract
This study aims to discuss the remission effect of vitamin C on isoflurane-induced apoptosis of rats and its possible mechanism of action, to provide a theoretical basis for postoperative cognitive impairment. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) detection, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) test, MTT method and Morris water maze were applied for detection tests. For data statistics, double factor analysis of variance (ANOVA) and post hoc Bonferroni test were adopted. It was found that vitamin C could slow down the isoflurane-induced accumulation of ROS in H4-APP cells; moreover, it could relieve the activation of caspase-3 and increase cell survival rate to inhibit the occurrence of apoptosis, indicating that ROS was the source of cell toxicity. On the other hand, vitamin C could protect the cells with its antioxidant effect. It was proved that vitamin C could remit isoflurane-induced apoptosis and relieve the decline in learning and memory ability of rats.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was to investigate the expression of miR-10a in the different FAB subtype of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and its relationship with drug resistance. METHODS Forty de novo patients with AML, 16 patients with non-malignant hematologic disease and three AML cell lines HL-60, U937 and HL-60/ADR were enrolled in this study, the MiR-10a expression in bone marrow mononuclear cells of above-mentioned patients and 3 AML cell lines was detected by TaqMan RT-PCR. The correlation of miR-10a with clinicopathological factors of AML patients was analyzed. RESULTS The miR-10a expression level in HL-60 cell line was higher than that in U937 cell line (P = 0.039). And its expression level in de novo AML patients was higher than that in patients with non-malignant hematologic disease (P < 0.01). FAB-AML-M3 patients exhibited higher expression of miR-10a than that in M1, M2 and M4 (P < 0.05); HL-60/ADR cell line showed higher miR-10a expression than that in HL-60 cell line (P < 0.01) . Except M3, the patients without CR (non-CR) after the first cycle of chemotherapy showed a higher level of miR-10a as compared with CR patients (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION The high expression of miR-10a may be closely related to over-proliferation of promyelocyte and drug resistance of acute myeloid leukemia cells, except M3.

Abstract
We report on the strong photo-bleaching of the photo-darkening (PD) induced loss under the cladding pump of a 793 nm laser diode (LD) in double clad Yb-doped fibers. Up to 68% PD loss at 810 nm was bleached. The bleaching rates under different powers show that the higher pump power corresponds to the more bleached loss within the same time. Moreover, repeatable processes of PD and photo-bleaching were observed when alternately pumped with 915 and 793 nm LDs. Furthermore, it was found that simultaneously pumping the fiber with 915 and 793 nm LDs can suppress about 80% PD loss, compared with pumping the fiber only with 915 nm LD. The mechanism of photo-bleaching under 793 nm pump was also discussed.

Abstract
Numerous studies have evaluated the association between TCF7L2 gene polymorphisms (rs12255372 and rs7903146) and breast cancer risk. However, the results have been inconsistent. Therefore, in the current study, we performed a meta-analysis. A systematically literature search of the PubMed and EMBASE databases was conducted in November 2013, and the reference lists of articles were retrieved. A summary odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to evaluate the strength of association. Publication bias was investigated using Begg's funnel plot. Meta-analysis was performed using STATA package version 12.0. A total of 4 case-control studies met our inclusion criteria, including 4600 cases and 5289 controls. Overall, TCF7L2 gene polymorphisms were significantly associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in genetic comparison models (rs12255372 for GG vs GT: OR = 0.90, 95%CI = 0.83-0.98; rs7903146 for CC vs TT: OR = 0.75, 95%CI = 0.63-0.90, CC vs CT: OR = 0.88, 95%CI = 0.81-0.97, dominant model: OR = 1.16, 95%CI = 1.06-1.27, recessive model: OR = 0.79, 95%CI = 0.67-0.94). This meta-analysis demonstrated that TCF7L2 gene polymorphisms (rs12255372 and rs7903146) are associated with an increased susceptibility to breast cancer. However, further studies including large sample sizes are needed to validate this association.

Abstract
The melatonin-related receptor GPR50 plays an important role in mammalian adaptive thermogenesis in response to calorie intake. The evolutionary history of the GPR50 gene is poorly understood in primates; however, it has been reported that GPR50 is the mammalian ortholog of Mel1c, which has been well characterized. In this study, the complete coding sequences of the GPR50 gene in the Sichuan snub-nosed monkeys (Rhinopithecus roxellana) and Tibetan macaques (Macaca thibetana) were sequenced, and the orthologous nucleotide acid sequences of the GPR50 gene in 11 other primate species were downloaded from GenBank. Thirteen species representing 6 major primate lineages (human, great ape, lesser ape, Old World monkey, New World monkey, and prosimian monkey) were subjected to statistical analyses. A selective test showed that the entire GPR50 gene sequence is under strong purifying selection in these primates but has a significantly different evolutionary rate among the 6 major primate lineages. Notably, both the Homo and Pan branches exhibited an ω ratio >1, indicating accelerated evolution of the two lineages. Further analysis of different domains revealed that the acceleration trend was more significant in the C-terminal domain (CTD). Interestingly, in the alignment of 13 primate GPR50 nucleotide acid sequences, numerous insertions or deletions were only found in the CTD region, implying that this region may play a key role in the process of primate GPR50 evolution. The results provide deeper insight into the functional evolution of GPR50 in mammals at the molecular level.

Abstract
Rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Muell. Arg.) is an important industrial crop of tropical areas for natural rubber production. In October 2013, foliar spots (0.1 to 0.4 mm in diameter), black surrounded by a yellow halo, and with lesions slightly sunken were observed on the rubber tree leaf in a growing area in Heikou County of Yunnan Province. Lesion tissues removed from the border between symptomatic and healthy tissue were surface sterilized in 75% ethanol and air-dried, plated on PDA plates, and incubated at 28°C with alternating day/night cycles of light. The pathogen was observed growing out of many of the leaf pieces, and produced abundant conidia. Colonies 6.1 cm in diameter developed on potato carrot agar (PCA) after 7 days, with well-defined concentric rings of growth. Colonies on PCA were composed of fine, dark, radiating, surface and subsurface hyphae. Conidia produced in PCA culture were mostly solitary or in short chains of 2 to 5 spores, long ovoid to clavate, and light brown, 40 to 81.25 × 8 to 20 μm (200 colonies were measured), with 3 to 6 transverse septa and 0 to 2 longitudinal or oblique septa. Morphological characteristics were similar to those described for Alternaria heveae (3,4). A disease of rubber tree caused by Alternaria sp. had been reported in Mexico in 1947 (2). DNA of Ah01HK13 isolate was extracted for PCR and sequencing of the ITS region with ITS1 and ITS4 primers was completed. From the BLAST analysis, the sequence of Ah01HK13 (GenBank Accession No. KF953884), had 97% similarity to A. dauci, 96% identical to A. macrospora (AY154701.1 and DQ156342.1, respectively), indicating the pathogen belonged to Alternaria genus. According to morphological characteristics, this pathogen was identified as A. heveae. Pathogenicity of representative isolate, Ah01HK13 was confirmed using a field rubber tree inoculation method. Three rubber plants (the clone of rubber tree Yunyan77-4) were grown to the copper-colored leaf stage and inoculated by spraying spore suspension (concentration = 104 conidia/ml) to the copper-colored leaves until drops were equally distributed on it using manual pressure sprayer. Three rubber plants sprayed with sterile distilled water were used as controls. After inoculation, the plants were covered with plastic bags. The plastic bags were removed after 2 days post-inoculation (dpi) and monitored daily for symptom development (1). The experiment was repeated three times. The typical 0.1 to 0.4 mm black leaf spots were observed 7 dpi. No symptoms were observed on control plants. A fungus with the same colony and conidial morphology as A. heveae were re-isolated from leaf lesions on inoculated rubber plants, but not from asymptomatic leaves of control plants, fulfilling Koch's postulates. Based on these results, the disease was identified as black spot of rubber tree caused by A. heveae. To our knowledge, this is the first report of A. heveae on rubber tree in China.

Abstract
The azo linkage is a prominent chemical motif which has found numerous applications in materials science, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. Described herein is a sustainable heterogeneous-gold-catalyzed synthesis of azo arenes. Available nitroarenes are deoxygenated and linked selectively by the formation of N=N bonds using molecular H2 without any external additives. As a result of a unique and remarkable synergy between the metal and support, a facile surface-mediated condensation of nitroso and hydroxylamine intermediates is enabled, and the desired transformation proceeds in a highly selective manner under mild reaction conditions. The protocol tolerates a large variety of functional groups and offers a general and versatile method for the environmentally friendly synthesis of symmetric or asymmetric aromatic azo compounds.

Abstract
A bench scale system integrated with a non-thermal plasma (NTP) and a biotricking filtration (BTF) unit for the treatment of gases containing dimethyl sulfide (DMS) was investigated. DMS removal efficiency in the integrated system was up to 96%. Bacterial communities in the BTF were assessed by PCR-DGGE, which play the dominant role in the biological processes of metabolism, sulfur oxidation, sulfate-reducing and carbon oxidation. The addition of ozone from NTP made microbial community in BTF more complicated and active for DMS removal. The NTP oxidize DMS to simple compounds such as methanol and carbonyl sulfide; the intermediate organic products and DMS are further oxidized to sulfate, carbon dioxide, water vapors by biological degradation. These results show that NTP-BTF is achievable and open new possibilities for applying the integrated with NTP and BTF to odour gas treatment.

Abstract
A proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) which stimulates the cell proliferation is abundantly expressed in colorectal cancer (CRC) tumors. In this report, the promoter region of the APRIL gene was determined and the major transcription factor was investigated for the first time. Deletion analysis of 5'-flanking region of the human APRIL gene and transient transfection revealed that a 538 bp region (from -1539 to -1001) was essential for promoter activation of the APRIL gene. The data from electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSA) indicated that the 538 bp promoter region was responsive to the specificity protein 1 (Sp1) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB). Overexpression of Sp1 or NF-kB increased the activity of the APRIL promoter. Mithramycin A (inhibitor of Sp1) and Bay11-7082 (inhibitor of NF-kB) exhibited an inhibitory activity to APRIL promoter. Our results will benefit to the APRIL gene regulation investigation and contribute to discover new drug target for the APRIL gene therapy of CRC.

Abstract
AIM Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a potent chemokine and plays an important role in atherosclerosis of Type 2 diabetes. The aim of this study was to investigate the methylation status of CpG sites in the MCP-1 promoter in Type 2 diabetic patients and its correlation to serum MCP- 1 level, and blood glucose level. METHODS The 32 patients with Type 2 diabetes and 15 healthy controls were enrolled into the study. Bodymass index, blood pressure, blood lipid, blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and serum MCP-1 were measured. Genomic DNA was isolated fromthe peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC). Methylation status of CpG sites in theMCP-1 promoter was determined using methylation specific polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS The promoter region (2890-3050 bp) was predominantly methylated in PBMC from controls.Methylation of CpGmotifs were less methylated in the patients than in the controls (25% vs 80%; p<0.001), while the level of MCP-1 in serum was higher in patients with Type 2 diabetes (193.95±74.96 vs 88.46±55.10; p<0.001). MCP-1 promoter methylation was significantly correlated to serum MCP-1, HbA1c, fasting blood glucose, and triglyceride. CONCLUSION These data suggest that hypomethylation of CpG sites in the MCP-1 promoter region may be affected by blood glucose and TG, which then increase the serum MCP-1 level and may play a role in the vascular complications of Type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
The malignant transformation of esophageal mucosa is a progressive process, which includes basal cell hyperplasia, dysplasia, carcinoma in situ, and invasive esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). The objectives of this study were to prove the relationship of squamous cell carcinoma antigen 2 (SCCA2) mRNA expression in peripheral blood with non-malignant lesion, premalignant lesion, and carcinoma of the esophagus at the same assay, as well as to evaluate whether or not SCCA2 mRNA expression in peripheral blood may be a biomarker for monitoring the premalignant lesion of the disease. The subjects consisted of 50 patients with basal cell hyperplasia, 50 patients with dysplasia, 50 patients with ESCC (12 carcinoma in situ, 38 carcinoma in invasive stage), and 50 controls who were pathologically diagnosed to be normal and whose esophageal mucosa were stained brown by iodine. All the subjects are residents of Feicheng, China, which is considered an area with a high incidence of esophageal cancer. All subjects were diagnosed by two separate histopathologists, and the expression of SCCA2 mRNA in peripheral blood was detected by semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Furthermore, SCCA2 concentration in the serum was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In the cancer group, SCCA2 mRNA expression was also detected in 20 tissues of esophageal cancer. By using the band intensity ratios of SCCA2 to beta-actin, with a positive cut-off value of > or = 0.4, the positive rates of the SCCA2 mRNA expression in peripheral blood were found to be 82% (41/50), 60% (30/50), 48% (24/50), and 36% (18/50) in the cancer, dysplasia, basal cell hyperplasia, and control groups, respectively. The positive rate of the cancer group was significantly different from the three other groups (P < 0.05), and there was also a significant difference in the SCCA2 mRNA expression between the dysplasia group and the control group (chi(2)=5.769, P= 0.016). In the multinomial logistic regression analysis, the odds ratios (ORs) were 1.71 [95% confidence interval (95% CI), 0.73-3.99] in the basal cell hyperplasia group, 2.77 (95% CI, 1.14-6.71) in the dysplasia group, and 7.87 (95% CI, 2.88-21.55) in the cancer group after being adjusted for age, gender, smoking index, drinking index, and family history of esophageal cancer. The SCCA2 mRNA expression in peripheral blood was then divided into different grades according to the band intensity ratios of SCCA2 to beta-actin. By using a positive cut-off value of > or = 0.4, the testing sensitivities in the basal cell hyperplasia, dysplasia, and cancer groups were found to be 48%, 60%, and 82%, respectively, with the same testing specificity at 64%. On the other hand, SCCA2 mRNA expression in peripheral blood had a 97.5% agreement with that in tissue, and there was a significant correlation between the ELISA SCCA2 levels in the serum and the SCCA2 mRNA expression levels in the peripheral blood (r= 0.80, P= 0.01). The results indicate that SCCA2 mRNA expression in peripheral blood is linked with the different stages of esophageal pathological changes, despite the fact that SCCA2 mRNA was not a biomarker for screening early esophageal cancer. This knowledge may be useful in monitoring the processes of change that occur in esophageal premalignant lesions among subjects who live in a high-incidence area.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the +33371 A/G polymorphism of adiponectin receptor 2 gene and the risk of Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) in the Chinese population. METHODS A case-control study was performed among 594 unrelated Chinese people. All of them underwent a standardized assessment on phenotypic characterization including anthropometry, 75-g oral glucose tolerance test with insulin levels, fasting serum total cholesterol, and fasting serum triglyceride. The +33371 A/G polymorphism was detected by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. RESULTS The PCR products after digestion displayed 3 genotypes, including AA, AG, and GG. The frequencies of AA, AG, and GG genotypes in T2DM group (no.=261) and control group (no.=353) were 0.379, 0.414, 0.207 and 0.162, 0.541, 0.297, respectively. There was a significant difference in both genotypic and allelic frequencies distribution of +33371 A/G polymorphism between T2DM and control subjects (p<0.001). Subjects with AA+AG genotypes showed higher levels of fasting plasma glucose (p=0.024), fasting serum triglycerides (p=0.036), and body mass index (BMI) (p=0.013) than those with GG genotype in the T2DM group but not in the control group. Compared with GG genotype, AA (p<0.001) and AA+AG (p=0.002) genotype group had a significantly higher risk of T2DM, with odds ratio (OR) for 2.290 [95% confidence interval: 1.482-3.359] and 1.963 (1.183-2.997). Compared with AG+GG genotype group, the risk of T2DM in AA genotype increased slightly (p=0.007), with OR for 1.478 (1.025-2.036). CONCLUSION The present findings suggest that +33371 A/G polymorphism is associated with increased risk of T2DM and multiple insulin resistance-related phenotypes (including fasting plasma glucose, fasting serum triglycerides, and BMI) in the Chinese population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of puerarin (Pue) on nitric oxide (NO) produced by neonatal rat cardiomyocytes during hypoxia/reoxygenation injury. METHOD NO contents in the culture supernatants sampled from different groups (control, model, and therapeutic groups with 1, 0.1, 0.01 g.L-1 Pue) at different time were assayed with nitrate reductase method. RESULT NO content of model increased after reperfusion (P < 0.01), while it increased sharply at 6 h after reperfusion and kept thereafter. Only at 6 h after reperfusion did Pue in these three doses inhibit NO production (P < 0.01) and kept to the 24 h after reperfusion. CONCLUSION Pue exerts inhibitive effect only after NO production is enhanced sharply during hypoxia/reperfusion injury in a dose-dependent trend.

Abstract
AIM To compare the effects of extract F of red-rooted Salvia (EFRRS) on mucosal lesions of gastric corpus and antrum induced by hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion in rats. METHODS The rats were subject to hemorrhagic shock and followed by reperfusion, and were divided randomly into two groups. Group 1 received saline, and group 2 received EFRRS intravenously. The index of gastric mucosal lesions (IGML) was expressed as the percentage of lesional area in the corpus or antrum. The degree of gastric mucosal lesions (DGML) was catalogued grade 0,1,2 and 3. The concentrations of prostaglandins (PGs) were measured by radioimmunoassay. The concentration of MDA was measured according to the procedures of Asakawa. The activity of SOD was measured by the biochemical way. The growth rates or inhibitory rates of above-mentioned parameters were calculated. RESULTS As compared with IGML (%), grade 3 damage (%) and MDA content (nmol/g tissue) of gastric antrum which were respectively 7.96 +/- 0.59, 34.86 +/- 4.96 and 156.98 +/- 16.12, those of gastric corpus which were respectively 23.18 +/- 6.82, 58.44 +/- 9.07 and 230.56 +/- 19.37 increased markedly (P <0.01), whereas the grade 0 damage, grade 1 damage, the concentrations of PGE(2) and PGI(2)(pg/mg tissue), the ratio of PGI(2)/TXA(2) and the activity of SOD (U/g tissue) of corpus which were respectively 3.01 +/- 1.01, 8.35 +/- 1.95, 540.48 +/- 182.78, 714.38 +/- 123.74, 17.38 +/- 5.93 and 134.29 +/- 13.35 were markedly lower than those of antrum which were respectively 13.92 +/- 2.25, 26.78 +/- 6.06, 2218.56 +/- 433.12, 2531.76 +/- 492.35, 43.46 +/- 8.51 and 187.45 +/- 17.67 (P<0.01) after hemorrhagic shock and reperfusion. After intravenous EFRRS, the growth rates (%) of grade 0 damage, grade 1 damage, the concentrations of PGE(2) and PGI(2), the ratio of PGI(2)/TXA(2) and the activity of SOD of corpus which were respectively 632.56, 308.62, 40.75, 74.75, 92.29 and 122.25 were higher than those in antrum which were respectively 104.89, 58.40, 11.12, 56.58, 30.65 and 82.64, whereas the inhibitory rates (%) of IGML, grade 3 damage and MDA content of gastric corpus were 82.93, 65.32 and 59.09, being higher than those of gastric antrum which were 76.64, 53.18 and 42.37. CONCLUSION After hemorrhagic shock reperfusion, the gastric mucosal lesions in the corpus were more severe than those in the antrum, which were related not only to the different distribution of endogenous PGs in the mucosa, but also to the different ability of anti-oxidation of the mucosa. The protective effect of EFRRS on the gastric mucosa in the corpus was more evident than that in the antrum, which was related to higher growth degree of PGs contents and anti-oxitative ability in gastric corpus after administration of EFRRS.

Abstract
The elimination efficiency of advanced conventional biological wastewater treatment was compared to membrane-assisted biological wastewater treatment. The sum parameter analyses dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) or substance-specific analyses such as gas chromatography combined with mass spectrometry, flow injection analysis (FIA-MS) and liquid chromatography (LC-MS) in combination with mass or tandem mass spectrometry (MS-MS) were applied to assess elimination of hardly eliminable compounds in both types of wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Reduction of DOC and COD in wastewater treatment processes confirmed a favourable elimination efficiency. Substance-specific methods which were applied in addition permitted a qualitative and semi-quantitative assessment of elimination with a visual pattern recognition approach. In order to identify pollutants either the NIST library of electron impact mass spectra for unpolar compounds or the laboratory-made collision-induced dissociation spectra library for polar pollutants was used. To assess elimination efficiency FIA-MS in the selected ion monitoring mode (SIM) besides high selective substance-specific mass spectrometric techniques such as parent ion scans and neutral loss scans were used for quantification. Results proved that membrane-assisted treatment was more effective than advanced biological treatment. In both types of WWTPs predominantly unpolar pollutants were eliminated, while all effluents were dominated by polar compounds of anthropogenic and biogenic origin. These unpolar and polar compounds which had been identified as hardly eliminable are reported about. Quantitative results obtained by FIA-MS, LC-MS and MS-MS for the elimination of alkyl polyglycol ethers, nonylphenol ethoxylates and linear alkylbenzenesulfonic acids from wastewater are presented.

Abstract
Immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) has shown promise of isolating desired proteins from a mixture based on their difference of affinity for chelated metal ions. With its technological superiority, such as large adsorption capacity, mild separation condition, simple ligands and wide applications, IMAC has become powerful tool for biotechnological products separation, such as proteins, amino acids and gene products. In spite of many sophisticated applications for IMAC, the theoretical analysis of Immobilized metal chromatography has remained insufficient. In this paper, the eluted efficiencies of bovine serum albumin (BSA) in a single-component system under different elution conditions are studied. The effects of several elution factors, such as pH value, ammonium concentration and anion species on protein separation are studied. Comparing the elution data of BSA in IDA-Cu and IDA-Zn columns, the different ability of affinity between metal ions and proteins is found. In addition, the elution behaviors of different proteins are investigated. This work facilitates the further research in separation of real systems.
