Abstract
This work aimed to clarify the potential regulating effects of Qufeng Xuanfei formula (QFXF) on airway neurogenic inflammation and its underlying target signal pathway. Guinea pig model of airway hyperergy (AHR) was used. The relative susceptibility of major proteins to airway neurogenic inflammation was assessed using Western blot immunoassay followed by being separated by SDS-PAGE. Compared to the model group, QFXF of all concentrations effectively depressed the capsaicin enhanced cough in guinea pigs and the peak values of airway resistance significantly decreased. The results illustrated that QFXF alleviated cough symptom in guinea pigs and reduced airway neurogenic inflammation when compared to AHR model group. Airway inflammation and damage, as well as the levels of NGF, SP and c-Fos in QFXF decreased the most in the high-dose group. The mechanism of antitussive activity may be associated with reducing airway inflammation. QFXF displayed effect on chronic cough through reducing the levels of neuropeptides, attenuating airway inflammation and promoting recovery from disease to decrease the airway neuro sensitivity, suggesting that the potential mechanism may be related to Ras/ERK/c-Fos pathway.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the effect of low-dose X-ray ionizing radiation on thyroid function of radiation workers. Methods: From January to December 2021, a total of 1039 medical workers in some tertiary hospitals in Wuhan were selected as the survey subjects, of which 518 radiation workers were selected as the exposure group, and 521 non-radiation workers were selected as the control group. The general conditions of the two groups were collected, and 5 indicators of thyroid function were measured, including total thyroxine (TT(4)) , total triiodothyronine (TT(3)) , free triiodothyronine (FT(3)) , thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) , and free thyroxine (FT(4)) . The annual cumulative dose of ionizing radiation exposure in the exposure group was collected. Pearson χ(2) test and independent sample t test were used to compare the general conditions, 5 indicators of thyroid function and abnormal rate between the two groups. Linear regression model was used to analyze the correlation between the annual cumulative dose and 5 indicators of thyroid function in the exposure group. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of thyroid dysfunction in the exposure group. Results: The TT(4) levels of the workers in the control group and the exposure group were (7.95±1.07) μg/dl and (8.26±1.41) μg/dl, respectively, and the FT(4) levels were (16.33±2.19) pmol/L and (17.15±2.42) pmol/L, respectively, the rate of thyroid dysfunction was 4.80% (25/521) and 8.49% (44/518) , and the above differences were statistically significant (P<0.05) . Linear regression analysis showed that the annual cumulative dose of the exposure group was significantly correlated with TT(4), TT(3), FT(4), and TSH (P<0.05) . For every 1 mSv increase in the annual cumulative dose, TT(4) increased by 1.661 μg/dl, FT(4) increased by 1.422 pmol/L, TT(3) decreased by 0.113 ng/ml, and TSH decreased by 0.731 μIU/ml. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that the older the radiation workers, the higher the risk of thyroid dysfunction (OR=1.080, 95% CI: 1.016-1.148, P=0.013) ; the greater the annual cumulative dose, the higher the risk of thyroid dysfunction (OR=6.400, 95%CI: 1.796-22.811, P=0.004) . Conclusion: The annual cumulative dose of low-dose X-ray ionizing radiation is positively correlated with thyroid function TT(4) and FT(4) of radiation workers, and negatively correlated with TT(3) and TSH; the greater the age and annual cumulative dose, the higher the risk of thyroid dysfunction.

Abstract
Background Chronic cough is a common complaint which affects a large number of patients worldwide. Increased cough sensitivity is a very important cause of chronic persistent cough. However, there are limited clinical diagnosis and treatment for increased cough sensitivity. Transient receptor potential vanilloid-1 (TRPVl) is a member of the transient receptor potential (TRP) family of channels which is very closely associated with respiratory diseases. However, the mechanism through which TRPV1 that influences downstream events is still poorly understood. Results Capsaicin induced increase in cough sensitivity by upregulating the protein level of TRPV1, leading to the secretions of Substance P and neurokinin A which stimulated neurogenic inflammation. However, sinomenine, a component of traditional Chinese medicine, significantly attenuated the capsaicin-induced cough by inhibiting the expression of TRPV1 in guinea pigs. In addition, capsaicin increased the expression of SOX5 which mediated the transcriptional upregulation of TRPV1. However, pretreatment with sinomenine reduced the expression of SOX5. Conclusion These results indicate that capsaicin induced increase in cough sensitivity by activating neurogenic inflammation, while sinomenine attenuated the increase in cough sensitivity by inhibiting the expressions of SOX5 and TRPV1 in guinea pigs. This finding may provide a novel target for the treatment of aggravated cough sensitivity.

Abstract
Objective: To improve the clinical recognition of electronic cigarette or vaping product use-associated lung injury. Methods: A 67 year old patient with lung injury induced by e-cigarette was reported. The concentrations of vitamin E acetate (VEA) and tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC) in BALF were measured by UHPLC-MS/MS. A literature review was performed with"Vaping-Associated Lung Injury""vape","e-cigarette","electronic cigarette","EVALI","electronic nicotine device","lung","injury","case"as Mesh terms in PubMed. Results: There were 208 cases reported in the literature, 71.6% of whom were male, and 28.4% were female, with a median age of 27 years (17-67 years), while 2 patients (1%) were over 60 years old. The median time of using e-cigarette was 90 days (2 weeks-3 years). Of the 208 patients, the most common symptoms were dyspnea, fever, chest pain, hemoptysis, and gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, abdominal pain or diarrhea. The most common manifestation of chest CT was bilateral ground glass opacity (n=119, 57.2%). A total of 70 patients received bronchoscopy and BALF, which showed that the ratio of macrophages was (49.5±29.8)%, neutrophil (34.7±28.7)%, lymphocytes (10.1±7.4)%, and eosinophils (2.4±3.6)%. The "foamy" alveolar macrophages were positive in 65 cases (92.9%).A total of 132 patients (63.5%) were treated with antibiotics, and 162 patients (77.9%) were treated with glucocorticoids. The initial dose of methylprednisolone was 40 mg and the maximum was 500 mg. 48 patients (23.1%) were mechanically ventilated and 10 patients (4.8%) were treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Of the 208 patients, 202(97.1%) patients improved and 6 (2.9%) died. Conclusion: Our case and reported cases should alert physicians to the clinical presentation of vaping-associated lung injury for early diagnosis and prompt management. It is suggested that the standardized management of e-cigarette should be strengthened to avoid similar situation of e-cigarette-related lung injury in China. Additional work is needed to characterize the pathophysiology of this disease.

Abstract
Normally, low d-ribose production was identified as responsible for plenty of acid formation by Bacillus subtilis due to its carbon overflow. An approach of co-feeding glucose and sodium citrate is developed here and had been proved to be useful in d-ribose production. This strategy is critical because it affects the cell concentration, the productivity of d-ribose and, especially, the formation of by-products such as acetoin, lactate and acetate. d-ribose production was increased by 59·6% from 71·06 to 113·41 g l-1 without acid formation by co-feeding 2·22 g l-1 h-1 glucose and 0·036 g l-1 h-1 sodium citrate to a 60 g l-1 glucose reaction system. Actually, the cell density was also enhanced from 11·51 to 13·84 g l-1 . These parameters revealed the importance of optimization and modelling of the d-ribose production process. Not only could zero acid formation was achieved over a wide range of co-feeding rate by reducing glycolytic flux drastically but also the cell density and d-ribose yield were elevated by increasing the hexose monophosphate pathway flux. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY Bacillus subtilis usually produce d-ribose accompanied by plenty of organic acids when glucose is used as a carbon source, which is considered to be a consequence of mismatched glycolytic and tricarboxylic acid cycle capacities. This is the first study to provide high-efficiency biosynthesis of d-ribose without organic acid formation in B. subtilis, which would be lower than the cost of separation and purification. The strain transketolase-deficient B. subtilis CGMCC 3720 can be potentially applied to the production of d-ribose in industry.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the reliability and validity of Parkinson's disease sleep scale-Chinese version (CPDSS) through a study of a large PD population in southwest China, and to explore the prevalence and characteristics of sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients from southwest China. Methods: A total of 544 PD patients and 220 control subjects were enrolled in our study. Demographic data, CPDSS, ESS, PDQ39, HAMD and H-Y stage were assessed in all subjects. Statistical description, Cronbach's alpha coefficient, intra-class correlation coefficient (ICC), Spearman rank correlation coefficient and Mann-Whitney U test were used for statistical analyses. Result: The Cronbach's alpha coefficient for CPDSS was 0.79, ICC of the total scale was 0.94 and ICC of each item ranged from 0.73 to 0.97. The factor analysis yielded a five-factor solution, which explained 63.4% of the total variance. Total and each item scores of CPDSS in PD patients were lower than those in healthy controls. 69.3% of PD patients had sleep disorder, while prevalence in the control group was only 29.6%. Negative correlation was found between CPDSS and ESS. Daytime sleepiness was the most common factor (35.9%) leading to sleep disorders. The sleep disorders of PD patients in Southwest China were significantly related with the course of disease, the severity of disease, the quality of life, depression, cognitive level and motor symptoms. Conclusion: CPDSS has good feasibility, reliability and validity in PD population from southwest China. CPDSS is considered as an effective tool for the assessment of sleep disorder in PD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of three luteal phase supporting strategies on clinical outcomes of intrauterine insemination (IUI). METHODS 1 779 subjects who underwent IUI at the Center of Reproductive Medicine, Peking University Third Hospital from November 2014 to June 2015 were enrolled in this retrospectively study.According to the luteal phase supporting strategies, all the subjects were divided into three groups: subjects receiving Dydrogesterone were group A; subjects receiving oral micronized progesterone were group B; subjects receiving vaginal micronized progesterone were group C. The pregnancy outcomes, including clinical pregnancy rate, early miscarriage rate, biochemical pregnancy rate and ectopic pregnancy rate were compared in the three groups. RESULTS There was no significant difference in the three groups in constituent ratio, average IUI times, rate of the natural cycle, rate ofovulation cycle and dropout rate(P>0.05). Similarly, there was also no significant difference in pregnancy outcomes in all groups.Subsequent stratified analysis demonstrated that pregnancy outcomes in subjects of natural cycle and ovulation cycle still showed no significant difference(P>0.05). CONCLUSION Our study suggested that the effects of three luteal phase supporting strategies on clinical outcomes of IUI were similar.The medication in clinic should be individualized.

Abstract
In the present study, we isolated three populations of Myxobolus ampullicapsulatus from the gills of crucian carp, Carassius auratus auratus, two from Yongchuan, Chongqing area and one from Poyang Lake, Jiangxi area, China, sequenced their complete small subunit ribosome RNA gene, analyzed their genetic distance and gene similarity, and explored their relationship based on Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood analyses of their small subunit ribosomal DNA. The results combined with their morphological characteristics suggest that M. ampullicapsulatus infecting the gills and pharynx of allogynogenetic gibel carp, Carassius auratus gibelio, should be Myxobolus honghuensis. This study highlights the importance of DNA sequence comparisons for distinguishing Myxobolus species and indicates that the intra-species identification for the two Myxobolus species mentioned in the present research should be less than ten variation sites. In morphology, M. honghuensis Liu et al. (2012) parasitic on the gills of C. auratus auratus (goldfish) was collected from Chongqing area, and its mature spore was 16.5–19.5 × 8.5–10.0 μm in size, polar capsule was 7.0–10.0 × 2.5–4.0 μm in size, and polar filament had 9–10 coils. M. honghuensis Liu et al. (2012) isolated from the pharynx of C. auratus gibelio was sampled in Hubei area, and its mature spore was 15.1–19.5 × 9.0–11.3 μm in size, polar capsule was 7.9–8.1 × 3.0–4.5 μm in size, and polar filament had 7–8 coils.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A recent large-scale replication and heterogeneity study reported the new described GWAS locus (MCCC1/LAMP3 rs11711441) was associated with a reduced risk of Parkinson disease (PD) in Asian and Caucasian populations. Its role is still unknown in a Han Chinese population from mainland China. We genotyped the rs11711441 variant to investigate the association with risk of PD. METHODS Using a case-control methodology, a total of 1428 Han Chinese study subjects were genotyped. We also conducted further stratified analysis according to age at onset and compared the clinical characteristics of GA + AA subjects with GG subjects. RESULTS In this study, we confirmed that the A allele of MCCC1/LAMP3 (rs11711441) polymorphism reduces the risk to develop sporadic PD (P = 0.043). Additionally, subjects with GA + AA genotypes have a reduced risk compared to those with GG genotype (P = 0.022). The association was seen among the older age group (P = 0.014), but was not significant among the younger age group (P = 0.641). No significant differences were observed in gender, age at onset, and onset symptoms between GA + AA subjects and GG subjects. CONCLUSION Our study, the first from Mainland China demonstrates that MCCC1/LAMP3 (rs11711441) is associated with a lower risk of PD. Further studies in additional Chinese populations and other cohorts will be useful.
