Effect of different screw speeds on the structure and properties of starch straws. Carbohydr Polym 2024; 328:121701. [PMID: 38220338 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.121701] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/13/2023] [Indexed: 01/16/2024]
Abstract
To illustrate the action mechanism of screw speed on the performance of starch-based straws during the extrusion process, starch-based straws at different screw speeds were prepared using a twin-screw extruder and the structures and characteristics were compared. The results indicated that as screw speeds improved from 3 Hz to 13 Hz, the A chain of amylopectin increased from 25.47 % to 28.87 %, and the B3 chain decreased from 6.34 % to 3.47 %. The absorption peak of hydroxyl group shifted from 3296 cm-1 to 3280 cm-1. The relative crystallinity reduced from 13.49 % to 9.89 % and the gelatinization enthalpy decreased from 3.5 J/g to 0.2 J/g. The performance of starch straws did not increase linearly with increasing screw speeds. The starch straw produced at screw speed of 7 Hz had the largest amylose content, the highest gelatinization temperature, the minimum bending strength, and the lowest water absorption rate in hot water (80 °C). Screw speed had a remarkable impact on the mechanical strength, toughness and hydrophobicity of starch-based straws. This study revealed the mechanism of screw speed on the mechanical strength and water resistance of starch straws in the thermoplastic extrusion process and created the theoretical basis for the industrial production of starch-based straws.

Influence of heat treatment before and/or after high-pressure homogenization on the structure and emulsification properties of soybean protein isolate. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127411. [PMID: 37838131 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127411] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Revised: 09/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023]
Abstract
This study investigates the effects of heat treatment before high-pressure homogenization (HHPH) and heat treatment after high-pressure homogenization (HPHH) at different pressures (20, 60, and 100 MPa) on the structural and emulsification properties of soy protein isolate (SPI). The results indicate that HHPH treatment increases the surface hydrophobicity (H0) of the SPI, reduces β-fold and irregular curls, leading to the formation of soluble aggregates, increased adsorbed protein content, and subsequent improvements in emulsification activity index (EAI) and emulsion stability index (ESI). In contrast, the HPHH treatment promoted the exchange of SH/SS bonds between protein molecules and facilitated the interaction of basic peptides and β-subunits, leading to larger particle sizes of the soluble aggregates compared to the HHPH-treated samples. However, excessive aggregation in HPHH-treated aggregates leads to decreased H0 and adsorbed protein content, and increased interfacial tension, negatively affecting the emulsification properties. Compared to the HPHH treatment, HHPH treatment at homogenization pressures of 20 to 100 MPa increases EAI and ESI by 5.81-29.6 % and 5.31-25.9 %, respectively. These findings provide a fundamental basis for soybean protein manufacturers to employ appropriate processing procedures aimed at improving emulsification properties.

Adsorption properties of corn starch modified by malt amylases and crosslinking agents: A comparison between sodium trimetaphosphate and organic acids. Int J Biol Macromol 2023; 253:127140. [PMID: 37778579 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2023.127140] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023]
Abstract
In order to investigate the effects of different crosslinking agents on physicochemical properties and adsorption properties of porous starch. Native corn starch was hydrolyzed by maltase and crosslinked with different crosslinking agents. Sodium trimetaphosphate crosslinked porous starch (STMP-MPS), malic acid cross-linked porous starch (MA-MPS) and citric acid cross-linked porous starch (CA-MPS) were prepared. After crosslinking, MA-MPS and CA-MPS showed a new CO stretching absorption peak at 1738 cm-1, and the crosslinking degree was much higher than that of STMP-MPS. The surface area of MA-MPS was 36 % higher than that of STMP-MPS. Compared with the average pore size of 12.43 nm of STMP-MPS, CA-MPS (14.02 nm) and MA-MPS (14.79 nm) were increased more significantly. The degradation temperature of MA-MPS and CA-MPS was increased by the introduction of ester bond, which indicates that the organic acid cross-linking strengthens the starch granules and hence more energy is required for disruption. Compared with STMP-MPS, the water absorption of MA-MPS and CA-MPS increased by 64 % and 32 %, respectively. Furthermore, the adsorption capacity of MA-MPS to essential oil was the strongest, about 4 times that of STMP-MPS. Overall, it is feasible to modify porous starch by crosslinking reaction to improve its heat resistance and adsorption properties.

Abstract
To study the relationship between the number of hydroxyl groups of polyols and the plasticizing effect, the effects of different polyols including ethylene glycol, glycerol, erythritol, xylitol and sorbitol on the structure and properties of corn starch straws were analyzed and compared. The results showed that the addition of plasticizer significantly improved the performance of starch straws, which greatly improved the mechanical properties, water absorption rate (WAR) and thermal stability. However, there was no linear relationship between the plasticizing effect on starch straws and the number of hydroxyl groups in plasticizers. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) results showed that erythritol formed the strongest intermolecular interaction with starch. Starch straws with erythritol (S-ERY) had the highest bending force (Fb = 25.78 N) and the lowest WAR. Starch straws with glycerol (S-GLY) showed the lowest relative crystallinity (RC = 12.87 %) and the highest temperature of the maximum degradation (Tdmax = 302.1 °C). In addition, after storing for 180 days, S-GLY showed higher modulus of elasticity in bending (Eb = 4.26 N/cm) and a uniform surface.

Abstract
Herein, we applied the Illumina MiSeq pyrosequencing platform to amplify the V3-V4 hypervariable regions of the 16 S rRNA gene of the gut microbiota (GM) and a gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer to detect the metabolites after supplementation with pumpkin oligosaccharides (POSs) to determine the metabolic markers and mechanisms in rats with type 2 diabetes (T2D). The POSs alleviated glucolipid metabolism by decreasing the serum low-density lipoprotein (LDL), total cholesterol (TC), and glucose levels. These responses were supported by a shift in the gut microbiota, especially in the butyric-acid-producing communities. Meanwhile, elevated total short-chain fatty acid (SCFA), isovaleric acid, and butyric acid levels were observed after supplementation with POSs. Additionally, this work demonstrated that supplementation with POSs could reduce TNF-α and IL-6 secretion via the FFA2-Akt/PI3K pathway in the pancreas. These results suggested that POSs alleviated T2D by changing the SCFA-producing gut microbiota and SCFA receptor pathways.

Abstract
Objective: To compare the differences in the prevalence of mild micro-hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) among patients with cirrhosis by using the psychometric hepatic encephalopathy score (PHES) and the Stroop smartphone application (Encephal App) test. Methods: This prospective, multi-center, real-world study was initiated by the National Clinical Medical Research Center for Infectious Diseases and the Portal Hypertension Alliance and registered with International ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05140837). 354 cases of cirrhosis were enrolled in 19 hospitals across the country. PHES (including digital connection tests A and B, digital symbol tests, trajectory drawing tests, and serial management tests) and the Stroop test were conducted in all of them. PHES was differentiated using standard diagnostic criteria established by the two studies in China and South Korea. The Stroop test was evaluated based on the criteria of the research and development team. The impact of different diagnostic standards or methods on the incidence of MHE in patients with cirrhosis was analyzed. Data between groups were differentiated using the t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, and χ (2) test. A kappa test was used to compare the consistency between groups. Results: After PHES, the prevalence of MHE among 354 cases of cirrhosis was 78.53% and 15.25%, respectively, based on Chinese research standards and Korean research normal value standards. However, the prevalence of MHE was 56.78% based on the Stroop test, and the differences in pairwise comparisons among the three groups were statistically significant (kappa = -0.064, P < 0.001). Stratified analysis revealed that the MHE prevalence in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C was 74.14%, 83.33%, and 88.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Chinese researchers, while the MHE prevalence rates in three groups of patients with Child-Pugh classes A, B, and C were 8.29%, 23.53%, and 38.24%, respectively, according to the normal value standards of Korean researchers. Furthermore, the prevalence rates of MHE in the three groups of patients with Child-Pugh grades A, B, and C were 52.68%, 58.82%, and 73.53%, respectively, according to the Stroop test standard. However, among the results of each diagnostic standard, the prevalence of MHE showed an increasing trend with an increasing Child-Pugh grade. Further comparison demonstrated that the scores obtained by the number connection test A and the number symbol test were consistent according to the normal value standards of the two studies in China and South Korea (Z = -0.982, -1.702; P = 0.326, 0.089), while the other three sub-tests had significant differences (P < 0.001). Conclusion: The prevalence rate of MHE in the cirrhotic population is high, but the prevalence of MHE obtained by using different diagnostic criteria or methods varies greatly. Therefore, in line with the current changes in demographics and disease spectrum, it is necessary to enroll a larger sample size of a healthy population as a control. Moreover, the establishment of more reliable diagnostic scoring criteria will serve as a basis for obtaining accurate MHE incidence and formulating diagnosis and treatment strategies in cirrhotic populations.

Abstract
Sorbitol as a plasticizer is easily crystallized from starch film, resulting in the reduction in plasticizing effect. To improve the plasticizing performance of sorbitol in starch films, mannitol, an acyclic hexahydroxy sugar alcohol, was used to cooperate with sorbitol. The effects of different ratios of mannitol (M) to sorbitol (S) as a plasticizer on mechanical properties, thermal properties, water resistance and surface roughness of sweet potato starch films were investigated. The results showed that the surface roughness of starch film with M:S (60:40) was the smallest. The number of hydrogen bonds between plasticizer and starch molecule was proportional to the mannitol content starch film. With the decrease of mannitol contents, the tensile strength of starch films gradually decreased except for M:S (60:40). Moreover, the transverse relaxation time value of starch film with M:S (100:0) was the lowest, indicating that it had the lowest degree of freedom of water molecules. Starch film with M:S (60:40) is the most effective in delaying the retrogradation of starch film. This study offered a new theoretical basis that different ratios of mannitol to sorbitol improve different performances of starch films.

Abstract
To improve the performance of starch straws in rapidly cooling and annealing procedure of thermoplastic extrusion, control straw was prepared through slowly cooling at 25 °C, and starch straw was prepared through regulating different rapid cooling temperatures including 20 °C, 5 °C, -10 °C and -20 °C. The results indicated that control straw exhibited a homogeneous state, while starch straws treated by rapid cooling displayed like a wash-board structure. Compared to control straw, the ratio of the absorption peak intensity of 1047 and 1022 cm-1 increased from 1.050 to 1.455 as cooling temperatures decreased from 25 °C to -20 °C, indicating short-range order of the double helix structure significantly enhanced. The relative crystallinities of starch straws increased from 12.01 % to 16.58 %. The maximum bending force value (60.92 N) of starch straws cooled at -20 °C was significantly higher than that (46.14 N) of control straw. Conversely, the modulus of elasticity in bending values (4.21-16.43 N/cm) of rapid cooling-treated straws were significantly lower than that (48.42 N/cm) of control straw. Water absorption of rapid cooling-treated straws were lower than that of control straw, indicating the hydrophobicity property of starch straws significantly improved.

Abstract
To better understand the correlation between structure and properties in thermoplastic starch biopolymer blend films, the effects of amylose content, chain length distribution of amylopectin and molecular orientation of thermoplastic sweet potato starch (TSPS) and thermoplastic pea starch (TPES) on microstructure and functional properties of thermoplastic starch biopolymer blend films were studied. After thermoplastic extrusion, the amylose contents of TSPS and TPES decreased by 16.10 % and 13.13 %, respectively. The proportion of the chains with the degree of polymerization between 9 and 24 of amylopectin in TSPS and TPES increased from 67.61 % to 69.50 %, and from 69.51 % to 71.06 %, respectively. As a result, the degree of crystallinity and molecular orientation of TSPS and TPES films increased as compared to sweet potato starch and pea starch films. The thermoplastic starch biopolymer blend films possessed a more homogeneous and compacter network. The tensile strength and water resistance of thermoplastic starch biopolymer blend films increased significantly, whereas thickness and elongation at break of thermoplastic starch biopolymer blend films decreased significantly.

Abstract
Starch/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) degradable straws with different PVA contents were prepared by the twin-screw extrusion method. The results showed that the starch/PVA straws with 40 % PVA (PS4) had the highest dispersion uniformity of starch and PVA to achieve the best compatibility, and the compatibility size was below the micron level. Molecular interactions between starch and 40 % polyvinyl alcohol reached the highest due to the highest strength of hydrogen bonds, hence resulting in the highest texture densities. Consequently, the largest compatibility and molecular interactions significantly improved the mechanical properties and water resistance of PS4. Compared to the starch/PVA straw with 0 % PVA (PS0), swelling volume of PS4 decreased by 45.5 % (4 °C) and 65.2 % (70 °C), respectively. After soaking, the diameter strength increased by 540.1 % (4 °C, 1 h) and 638.7 % (70 °C, 15 min), respectively. Water absorption decreased by 45.3 % (4 °C, 30 min) and 27.6 % (70 °C, 30 min).

Abstract
To illustrate the correlations between molecular structures and the film-forming properties of thermoplastic starch from various botanical sources, starches from cereal, tuber and legume were modified by thermoplastic extrusion and the corresponding thermoplastic starch films were prepared including thermoplastic corn starch (TCS), thermoplastic rice starch (TRS), thermoplastic sweet potato starch (TSPS), thermoplastic cassava starch (TCAS) and thermoplastic pea starch (TPES) films. TPES film displayed a higher tensile strength (6.28 MPa) and stronger water resistance, such as lower water solubility (15.70 %), water absorption (42.35 %), and water vapor permeability (0.285 g·mm·h-1·m-2·kPa-1) due to higher contents of amylose and B1 chains. TCAS showed a smoother and more amorphous film due to higher amylopectin content, resulting higher elongation at break and larger opacity. TCS film was the most transparent due to a compacter network and more ordered crystallinity structure, which was suit for the packaging of fresh vegetables and aquatic products, whereas TCAS film was the opaquest, which protected package foods from light such as meat products, etc. The outcome would provide an innovative theory to regulate accurately the functional properties of thermoplastic starch films for different food needs.

Abstract
The relationship between thyroid homeostasis parameters and obesity remains poorly understood in subjects with euthyroidism. This retrospective study aimed to investigate the association between the thyroid homeostasis and obesity in a population with euthyroidism. A total of 201 adult participants with euthyroidism (age range: 27-85 years) were enrolled. Clinical measurements, including obesity indices and biochemical analyses, were conducted. Thyroid homeostasis parameters were calculated. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the associations between thyroid function, thyroid homeostasis parameters, and obesity measurements. There was a positive correlation between thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free triiodothyronine (fT3), Jostel's thyrotropin index (TSHI), standard TSH index (sTSHI), thyrotroph thyroid hormone sensitivity index (TTSI), sum activity of peripheral deiodinase (SPINA-GD), and body mass index (BMI) in participants with euthyroidism and a negative correlation between thyroid's secretory capacity (SPINA-GT) and BMI (all P<0.05). Only the fT3, TSHI, and sTSHI had a positive correlation with waist circumference (all P<0.05). We concluded that BMI was positively associated with pituitary thyrotropic function parameters and SPINA-GD, and negatively correlated with SPINA-GT in adults with euthyroidism.

[PMID: 37113296 PMCID: PMC10126503 DOI: 10.3389/fnut.2023.1140737] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2023] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Whey protein microgel (WPM) is an emerging multifunctional protein particle and methods to improve its functional properties are continuously being explored. We developed a method to prepare WPM by heat-induced self-assembly under different ultrasound power (160, 320, 480, and 640 W/cm2) and characterized the particle size, surface hydrophobicity, disulfide bond, viscosity, and foam properties of WPM. Ultrasound increased the particle size of WPM-160 W to 31 μm. However, the increase in ultrasound power gradually reduced the average particle size of samples. The intrinsic fluorescence spectrum showed that ultrasound unfolded the structure of whey protein and exposed more hydrophobic groups, which increased the surface hydrophobicity of WPM. In addition, infrared spectroscopy suggested ultrasound decreased the α-helix content of WPM, implying an increase in the flexibility of protein molecules. The disulfide bond of WPM was broken by ultrasound, and the content of the-SH group increased correspondingly. The rheology indicated that the apparent viscosity decreased with the increase of ultrasonic power. Compared with the control, the ultrasonicated WPM displayed higher foam ability. Ultrasound improved the foam stability of WPM-160 W but destroyed the foam stability of other samples. These results suggest that proper ultrasound treatment can improve the physicochemical and foam properties of WPM.

[PMID: 36876769 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2022.120238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2022] [Revised: 09/24/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Waxy maize starch (WMS) was modified using sequential α-amylase and transglucosidase to create enzyme-treated waxy maize starch (EWMS) with higher branching degree and lower viscosity as an ideal healing agent. Self-healing properties of retrograded starch films with microcapsules containing WMS (WMC) and EWMS (EWMC) were investigated. The results indicated that EWMS-16 had the maximum branching degree of 21.88 % after transglucosidase treatment time of 16 h, and A chain of 12.89 %, B1 chain of 60.76 %, B2 chain of 18.82 % and B3 chain of 7.52 %. The particle sizes of EWMC ranged from 2.754 to 5.754 μm. The embedding rate of EWMC was 50.08 %. Compared to retrograded starch films with WMC, water vapor transmission coefficients of retrograded starch films with EWMC were lower, while tensile strength and elongation at break values of retrograded starch films were almost similar. Retrograded starch films with EWMC had higher healing efficiency of 58.33 % as compared to that Retrograded starch films retrograded starch films with WMC was 44.65 %.

Abstract
To reduce the wheat-flour-based food texture and flavor deterioration caused by starch retrogradation, herein wheat starch, the most ingredient in wheat flour, was modified by transglucosidase to delay long-term retrogradation of wheat starch. The study proposed promising data of transglucosidase-treated starch about structure, crystallinity and retrogradation kinetics. Structural properties showed that transglucosidase treatment shortened the average chain length from 19.49 to 16.10 and induced the dominance of amorphous state. Moreover, branching degree increased from 14.11% to 17.97% after transglucosidase treatment, resulting in higher water mobility. Amylose content increased from 25.33% to 59.00% due to the hydrolysis ability of transglucosidase. Relative crystallinity of the retrograded starches decreased from 24.33% to 14.50%. Furthermore, the Avrami parameters demonstrated that transglucosidase treatment significantly retarded the retrogradation rate of wheat starch due to the decrease of re-crystalline rate. The outcoming would supply a solid theory foundation for exploring the wheat staple foods with higher qualities.

Abstract
The study intended to explore the influence of corn resistant starches type III (RS3s) prepared by autoclave, debranching, and microwave heat on the rheology, structure, and viable counts of set yogurt. The rheological analysis suggested that RS3s enhanced the elastic and viscous modulus of yogurt, and that microwave-heated RS was the most effective for improving viscoelasticity. Fitting the creep data using the Burger model showed that yogurt with microwave-heated RS increased the structural strength of yogurt, which displayed the highest instantaneous and viscoelastic deformations. The confocal laser scanning microscopy and scanning electron microscopy micrographs demonstrated that autoclaved and debranched RS3s formed large fragments and disrupted the continuity of the milk protein structure; however, microwave-heated RS evenly filled the gel network and formed an interpenetrating network with proteins. The bacterial count and acidity of yogurt indicated that microwave-heated and debranched RS3s promoted the growth of lactic acid bacteria and accelerated the fermentation process of yogurt. The results of this study demonstrated that microwave-heated RS is a favorable supplement to the microstructure and rheological properties of yogurt compared with autoclaved and debranched RS3s.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of hydrothermal treatments (heat-moisture treatment (HMT) and annealing (ANN)) on the physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility of yam starch and yam flour. Hydrothermal treatments decreased the pasting properties of yam starch and yam flour. Compared with yam starch, HMT significantly (p < 0.05) reduced the pasting viscosities of yam flour. Both HMT and ANN caused an increase of the gelatinization temperatures (To, Tp, and Tc) and a decrease of enthalpy (△H). The increasement in ratio of 1047/1022 cm-1 and 995/1022 cm-1 suggested that HMT and ANN resulted in an increase in short-range order. The crystalline pattern of all samples was still A-type, and HMT yam starch exhibited higher crystallinity (26.20%). The most significant inhibition of in vitro digestibility was found in HMT yam flour, with slowly digestible starch and resistant starch contents increasing by 3.73% and 4.40%, respectively. Hydrothermal treatments made the no-starch ingredients in yam flour agglomerate and adhere to starch granules. Confocal laser scanning microscopy showed that the starch being coated or embedded by protein was a possible reason for the differences in physicochemical properties and in vitro digestibility between yam starch and yam flour.

Abstract
Potato flour is used in bakery products, extruded products and snacks. However, it displays weaker gel strengths and thus the wholesome utility is curtailed significantly. To improve viscoelastic properties and stability of potato gels, herein potato flour was treated with laccase and peroxidase to create a protein network structure leading to stable gels. The results revealed that the secondary structure of potato proteins altered upon the enzyme treatment. The gels of peroxidase-treated potato flour (PPF) and laccase-treated potato flour (LPF) displayed larger anti-shear ability, thermal stability and stronger three-dimensional network structure compared to the native potato gel. The PPF and LPF gels exhibited stronger viscoelastic properties and structural stability compared to peroxidase-treated potato protein and laccase-treated potato protein gels. The outcome serves as a theoretical basis to improve the properties of potato gels and to promote the designing and the development of novel potato flour based functional food.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the effect of dual-tube epidural segmental injection of lidocaine analgesia on the delivery outcome and maternal and infant complications of persistent posterior occipital position postpartum or lateral occipital position postpartum patients with protracted active phase. Methods: The full and single-term primiparas (n=216, 37 to 42 weeks gestation, 22 to 35 years) diagnosed as persistent posterior or lateral occipital position during the active period were selected from the Department of Obstetrics of Qingdao Municipal Hospital from January 2015 to October 2019. The subjects were randomly assigned into two groups: double-tube epidural block group (n=108) and single-tube epidural block group (n=108), 1% lidocaine was used for epidural analgesia respectively under ultrasound guidance. Senior midwife or obstetricians implement new partogram, and guide women to perform position management, and push or rotate the fetal head in a timely manner. Observation indicators: general condition, the use of non-pharmacological analgesic measures, analgesia related conditions and pain visual analogue scale (VAS) score, delivery-related indicator, cesarean section indication, anesthesia-related indicator, maternal and child complications. Results: (1) General condition: the age, weight, height, gestational age, the ratio of persistent lateral or posterior occipital position, cephalic score, and neonatal birth weight between the two groups of women were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). (2) The use of non-pharmacological analgesic measures: the women's Lamaze breathing method, Doula delivery companionship, percutaneous electrical stimulation, and other measures between two groups were compared, and there were not significant differences (all P>0.05). (3) Analgesia related conditions and VAS scores of women undergoing vaginal delivery: compared with the single-tube epidural block group (n=40), the second-partum time of the women in the double-tube epidural block group (n=59) was significantly shortened [(124±44) vs (86±33) minutes, P<0.01]; after 30 minutes of analgesia (4.4±0.5 vs 0.9±0.5, P<0.01), during forced labor in the second stage of labor (5.7±0.6 vs 1.3±0.4, P<0.01), the VAS scores of pain were also significantly reduced (P<0.01). (4) Labor-related indicators: compared with the single-tube epidural block group, the natural delivery rate (21.3% vs 49.1%) and the delivery experience satisfaction rate (51.9% vs 98.1%) of women in the double-tube epidural block group were significantly increased (all P<0.01), cesarean section rate (63.0% vs 45.4%), instrument assisted rate (15.7% vs 5.6%) decreased significantly (all P<0.05). (5) Cesarean section indications: compared with the single-tube epidural block group, the cesarean section rate caused by prolonged labor or protracted active phase of women in the double-tube epidural block group was significantly reduced (38.0% vs 22.2%; P<0.05), and the fetal distress, intrauterine infection, and social factors caused by cesarean section between the two groups were compared, while the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05).(6) Anesthesia related indexes: the block planes of the maternal upper tube administration in the double-tube epidural block group were mostly T7, T8, T9-L2 and L3,While,the block planes in the single-tube epidural block group were mostly T10, T11-S1, S2, S3, and the modified Bromage score were all 0. (7) Maternal and child complications: compared with the single-tube epidural block group, the postpartum hemorrhage rate (18.5% vs 7.4%), the perineal lateral cut rate (20.4% vs 5.6%), the neonatal asphyxia rate (12.0% vs 3.7%), ICU rate of transferred neonates (13.9% vs 4.6%) in the double-tube epidural block group were significantly reduced (all P<0.05). Soft birth canal injury rate, puerperal disease rate and neonatal birth rate between two groups were compared, and there were not statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Dual-tube epidural segmental injection of lidocaine analgesia could increase the natural delivery rate of women with posterior occipital or lateral occipital position with active stagnation, reduce the rate of cesarean section and the rate of transvaginal instruments, and reduce the complications of mother and child.

Abstract
PURPOSE To reveal the mechanism that links industrial trans fatty acids (iTFAs) to various chronic diseases, we examined the impact of iTFAs on the local microenvironment of the small intestine (duodenum, jejunum and ileum). METHODS Forty male 8-week-old mice were fed diets containing one of the following: (1) low soybean oil (LS); (2) high soybean oil (HS); (3) low partially hydrogenated oil (LH), and (4) high partially hydrogenated oil (HH). The analysis of microbiota from small intestinal content was performed by real-time qPCR. The fatty acid composition of small intestine mucosa was measured by GC/MS, and comparative transcriptome of the small intestinal mucosa was analyzed by RNA-sequencing. RESULTS The intake of iTFAs changed the fatty acid spectrum of the small intestine mucosa, especially the excessive accumulation of iTFA (mainly elaidic acid). For microbiota, the relative abundance of δ- and γ-proteobacteria, Lactobacillus, Desulfovibrio, Peptostreptococcus and Turicibacter were significantly different in the iTFA diet groups compared to the control group. Based on the identification of differently expressed genes(DEGs) and pathway annotation, comparative transcriptome analysis of the small intestine mucosa revealed obvious overexpression of genes involved in the extracellular matrix (ECM)-receptor interaction and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway, which suggests that ECM remodeling and abnormal lipid metabolism may have occurred with iTFA ingestion. CONCLUSION Our research demonstrated multiple adverse effects of iTFA that may have originated from the small intestine. This finding could be to facilitate the development of new strategies to suppress iTFA-related diseases by reversing the adverse effects of iTFA on intestinal health.

Abstract
Objective: To determine whether 60 Gy is superior to standard 50 Gy for definitive concurrent chemoradiation(CCRT) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) using modern radiation technology in a phase Ⅲ prospective randomized trial. Methods: From April 2013 to May 2017, 331 patients from 22 hospitals who were pathologically confirmed with stage ⅢA-ⅣA ESCC were randomized to 60 Gy or 50 Gy with random number table. Total of 305 patients were analyzed, including 152 in 60 Gy group and 153 in 50 Gy group. The median age was 63 years, 242(79.3%) males and 63(20.7%) females. The median length of primary tumor was 5.6 cm. The clinical characteristics between two groups were comparable. All patients were delivered 2 Gy per fraction, 5 fractions per week. Concurrent weekly chemotherapy with docetaxel (25 mg/m(2)) and cisplatin (25 mg/m(2)) and 2 cycles consolidation chemotherapy with docetaxel (70 mg/m(2)) and cisplatin (25 mg/m(2), d1-3) were administrated. The primary endpoint was local/regional progression-free survival (LRPFS). The data were compared with Pearson chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Results: At a median follow-up of 27.3 months, the disease progression rate was 37.5% (57/152), 43.8% (67/153) in the high and standard-dose group, respectively (χ(2)=1.251, P=0.263). The 1, 2, 3-year LRPFS rate was 75.4%, 56.8%, 52.1% and 74.2%, 58.4%, 50.1%, respectively (HR: 0.95, 95%CI: 0.69-1.31, P=0.761). The 1, 2, 3-year overall survival rate was 84.1%, 64.8%, 54.1% and 85.4%, 62.9%, 54.0%, respectively (HR: 0.98, 95%CI: 0.71-1.38, P=0.927). The 1, 2, 3-year progression-free survival rate was 70.8%, 54.2%, 48.5% and 65.5%, 51.9%, 45.1%, respectively (HR: 0.93, 95%CI: 0.68-1.26, P=0.621). The incidence rates in toxicities between the two groups were similar except for higher rate of severe pneumonitis in high dose group (χ(2)=11.596, P=0.021). Conclusions: The efficacy in disease control is similar between 60 Gy and 50 Gy using modern radiation technology concurrent with chemotherapy for ESCC. The 50 Gy should be recommended as the regular radiation dose with CCRT for ESCC.

The rabbits in the general group were observed their behavioral changes, ocular surface and iris were scored by Draize eye irritation test scoring system. IOP was measured at different time points. Electroretinogram (ERG) was used to detect b-wave amplitude. In the corneal injury group, corneal epithelial defect repairment was observed at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 days after the corneal defect. Corneal histopathology observation after discontinuation of all rabbits. The pH value of rabbit tears was described by the paired t test, and the score of Draize eye irritation test were described by the rank-sum test. The analysis of variance and SNK-q were used for IOP, electroretinogram b-wave amplitude, corneal epithelial injury area and repair time. Results: No abnormal behavior was observed in the general group rabbits after single and multiple administration. There was no significant difference in the Draize eye irritation score among the general control group and the general group A, B, C at 1, 2, and 4 weeks of multiple administrations. Among them, the Draize eye irritation score of the general group C was 7 (0, 12), 6 (0, 10), 6 (0, 16) points (χ(2)=1.640, 0.265, 1.963, 1.381; P>0.05).There were no significant difference in IOP at different times among the general control group and the general group A, B, C at different times (F=0.065, 0.292, 0.015, 0.041; P>0.05). Before multiple administrations and after administration at 2, 4 weeks, the b-wave amplitudes of the general control group were (127.75±17.12), (129.18±15.83), (128.81±13.58) μV, and the general group A were (130.68).±18.75), (131.38±16.96), (130.62±12.18) μV,and the general group B were (128.00±16.74), (128.44±16.64), (129.06±16.16) μV, and the general group C were (131.81±19.37), (132.13±18.36), (129.94±12.60) μV. There was no statistically significant difference in b-wave amplitude in the groups at different times before and after administration (F=0.037, 0.011, 0.017, 0.702; P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the results of corneal histopathology among the general control group and the general group A, B, C. The area of corneal epithelial defect in each corneal injury group was statistically significant at different time (F=5.316, 25.864, 127.613; P<0.05). The corneal injury control group compared with the corneal injury group A, B, C, the corneal epithelial defect area in the corneal injury group C was significantly larger than the other three groups, with statistical differences (q=5.153, 10.313, 6.976; P<0.05). The repair time of corneal epithelial in control group and the group A,B,C of corneal injury were (83.0±1.85), (82.9±2.07), (83.7±2.09) and (101.6±2.20) h. The corneal epithelium defect repair time in group C was longer and the difference was statistically significant (F=301.437, P=0.000). Comparing the corneal injury control group and corneal injury group A and B, there was no statistical difference in the repair time of corneal epithelial defect (F=0.813, P=0.450). After repair, there was no significant difference in the pathological results of the corneal tissue between the corneal injury groups. Conclusions: Berberine solution in rabbit eyes with topical application was safety, and has no obvious toxic effect on the ocular surface and ERG of normal rabbits. 1.5 mg/ml berberine solution delayed the repair of experimental corneal epithelial defect, but had no effect on the integrity of corneal tissue after repair.

Abstract
Diabetes is a group of metabolic disorders that is characterized by hyperglycemia which increases the risks of cardiovascular, microvascular, and macrovascular complications. Innovative therapeutic trials regarding diabetes control and management are continually being undertaken. The present review was aimed to explore the potential effects and mechanisms that lead to the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its relation with asprosin. Asprosin is a newly discovered hormone that is encoded by protein fibrillin 1 (FBN1 gene), secreted by white adipose during fasting conditions at 5-10 nM levels, which acts on the liver through cell membrane receptors and activates the G protein cAMP- PKA pathway. Asprosin secretion is increased during fasting as the compensatory mechanism in hypoglycemia. Asprosin concentration is higher in patients with T2DM and impaired glucose regulation compared to healthy subjects. Genetic deficiency of asprosin may cause problems of poor appetite and extreme leanness in humans. Attenuating asprosin activity or depleting asprosin may serve as a novel therapeutic innovation for the treatment of T2DM and obesity. Hence, asprosin may serve as a beacon for the target of a future therapy in diabetes management.

Abstract
Alcohol is a globally well-established cause of fatty liver disease (FLD). Increased salt consumption is associated with an increased prevalence of adipocyte hypertrophy and liver injury. In this study, high dietary salt potentiated chronic alcohol-induced hepatic damage. We explored the physiological mechanism of alcoholic FLD in the gastrointestinal tract. Male C57BL/6J mice (8-week-old) were fed a high-salt diet (HSD; 4% NaCl) with or without chronic ethanol (CE) for 1 month. The fecal microbiota, serum biochemical indices, intestinal permeability, level of liver damage, and liver mitochondria were evaluated. The HSD, CE, and their combination (HSDE) significantly changed the gut microbiota's structure, and the HSDE mice contained more probiotic species (e.g., Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus). The serum aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and alkaline phosphatase levels were increased, and the lipid was accumulated in the liver tissues in the CE, HSD, and HSDE groups, which indicated liver damage, especially in the HSDE group. The increased intestinal permeability and mitochondrial dysfunction in the liver cells caused greater injury in the HSDE group than in the other groups. Thus, consuming HSD with alcohol contributes to FLD development and progression.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize clinical experience on the clinical feature, etiology and treatment of patients with spontaneous bloody tears as the initial symptom. Methods: Retrospective series of case studies. The clinical data and follow-up data of 27 cases of bloody tears as the first symptom in Lacrimal Center of Ophthalmology, the Third Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from June 2015 to December 2018 were reviewed. The clinical feature, specific cause, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of these cases were evaluated. Results: A total of 27 cases were collected in this study. The patients were 10 males (37.0%) and 17 females (63.0%), including 21 adults (≥ 18 years old, 77.8%) and 6 minors (<18 years old, 22.2%). There were 22 monocular cases (81.5%) and 5 binocular cases (18.5%). Five cases (18.5%) were bleeding from the eye and other parts of the body, and 22 cases (81.5%) were bleeding only from the eye. There were 19 cases (70.4%) with hematic epiphora and secretions from the punctum, 3 cases (11.1%) with blood-stained tears, and 7 cases (25.9%) with blood-like tears. With regard to etiology, 6 cases (22.2%) were combined with systemic lesions, one of which was granulomatosis with polyangiitis and five of which (<18 years old) were idiopathic bloody tears. Twenty-one cases (77.8%) were local lesions, including 18 cases only involving the lacrimal system, 2 cases only involving the ocular surface, and 1 case involving both the lacrimal system and the ocular surface. Among the 21 cases with local lesions, 5 cases were induced by foreign body, 6 cases were induced by simple inflammation, and 10 cases were induced by tumor including 1 case with conjunctival benign tumor and 9 cases with tumor of the lacrimal system (5 with malignant tumor and 4 with benign tumor). Patients with idiopathic bloody tears received psychological and medical treatment, and interictal discharge was lengthened. One case of granulomatosis with polyangiitis was treated by trans-nasal endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy. With the recurrence of granulomatosis and polyangiitis, bloody tears recurred after surgery. One patient with conjunctival hemangioma was untreated. Lesions in the lacrimal duct system were removed and dacryocystorhinostomy was performed. In this study, 2 patients (1 with small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma and 1 with adenoid cystic adenocarcinoma) died and the other had a good prognosis. Conclusions: Among the cases of bloody tears, adults and local lesions are more common. Most of the lesions are located in the lacrimal system and are tumors. The main treatment is to remove the lesions, and if necessary, to expand the resection and reconstruct the lacrimal duct. Idiopathic bloody tears occur in minors, who are gave psychotherapy and necessary medical treatment. (Chin J Ophthalmol, 2020, 56: 53-58).

Abstract
Objective: To study the imaging characteristics and accumulate data of optical coherence tomography (OCT) of the lacrimal punctum in normal adults. Methods: From September to November 2018, 59 healthy adults (90 eyes) with normal lacrimal punctum structure were enrolled in this cross-sectional study conducted at the Lacrimal Center of Ophthalmology, Third Medical Center of PLA General Hospital, including 21 males (34 eyes) and 38 females (56 eyes), aged 18-65 years. All the subjects were examined by slit lamp microscopy to measure the maximum transverse diameter. OCT was performed to observe the inferior lacrimal punctum, including the external punctal diameter, the punctal diameter at 100 μm and 200 μm depth. The difference in the diameter of different parts of the punctum was analyzed. Independent sample t test and single factor analysis of variance were used for statistical analysis. Results: In normal adults, the maximum transverse diameter under a slit lamp was (545.6±149.3) μm, the external punctal diameter on OCT images was (548.4±130.5) μm, and the punctal width at 100 μm and 200 μm depth on OCT images was (262.8±120.8) μm and (179.2±110.0) μm, respectively. There was no significant difference between the maximum transverse diameter of the punctum under a slit lamp microscope and the OCT outer diameter of the punctum (t=0.133, P=0.894). There were significant differences between the diameter of the lacrimal punctum in the different scanning sites of the OCT (F=213.237, P<0.01). There was significant difference between the punctal width at 100 μm and the external punctal diameter on OCT images (t=15.229, P<0.01). There was significant difference between the punctal width at 200 μm and the external punctal diameter on OCT images (t=20.517, P<0.01). There was significant difference between the punctal width at 100 μm and 200 μm depth on OCT images (t=4.855, P<0.01). Conclusion: The width of different parts of the lacrimal punctum in healthy adults is different on OCT images, and the punctal width at 200 μm depth is the narrowest.

Abstract
In this study, a mesoporous TiO2/carbon catalyst (TiO2/C) was prepared by a facile impregnation-carbonization approach to catalyze ozonation of p-chloronitrobenzene (p-CNB). The catalyst was well characterized and the catalytic efficiency under various conditions was systematically evaluated. TiO2/C has a disordered mesostructure with a high specific surface area. 92.8% of p-CNB (2 μmol/L) can be degraded within 20 min in the TiO2/C/O3 system in the presence of 1 mg/L O3, 100 mg/L catalyst, at pH = 5. Based on the evaluation of the effect of basic parameters, it could be deduced that the removal of p-CNB relied on the synthetic effect of catalysis by TiO2/C and the autocatalytic induction of p-CNB. The removal efficiency of p-CNB, the structure change and the leaching of Ti ions were also evaluated in five cycles, indicating TiO2/C is stable and recyclable for catalytic ozonation in water treatment.

Abstract
Abstract Objective To investigate the application of the comprehensive use of multiple genetic markers in full and half sibling relationship testing through the identification of a case of suspected sibling relationship. Methods Genomic DNA were extracted from bloodstain samples from 4 subjects (ZHANG-1, ZHANG-2, male; ZHANG-3, ZHANG-4, female). Autosomal STR loci, X-STR, Y-STR loci and polymorphisms of mtDNA HV-Ⅰ and Ⅱwere genotyped by EX20 STR kit, X19 kit, Data Y24 STR kit, and Sanger sequencing, respectively. Results According to autosomal STR based IBS scoring results, full sibling relationships were indicated among ZHANG-2, ZHANG-3 and ZHANG-4, but those were not indicated between ZHANG-1 and ZHANG-2 or ZHANG-3 or ZHANG-4. According to autosomal STR based FSI and HSI, with ITO method and discriminant function method, full sibling relationships among ZHANG-2, ZHANG-3 and ZHANG-4 were indicated, and half sibling relationships between ZHANG-1 and ZHANG-2 or ZHANG-3 or ZHANG-4 were also indicated. X-STR and mtDNA sequencing results showed that all the 4 samples came from a same maternal line, and Y-STR results showed that ZHANG-1 and ZHANG-2 did not come from a same paternal line, which supported the half sibling relationship between ZHANG-1 and ZHANG-2 or ZHANG-3 or ZHANG-4, verified by parental genotype reconstruction based on autosomal STR genotyping. Conclusion For the identification of sibling relationships, it is effective to have reliable results with the mutual verification and support of multiple genetic markers (autosomal STR, sex chromosomal STR and mtDNA sequence) and calculations (IBS, ITO, discriminant function method and family reconstruction).

Abstract
Abstract
Background: An emerging novel liquid biopsy technology called Cancer Differentiation Analysis (CDA) has been evaluated as a viable early stage breast cancer screening tool. CDA technology is a blood-sample based, multi-level, multi-parameter diagnostic method which detects signals from both protein, cellular, and to some extent, molecular levels, in which multiple aspects of information can be collected to improve diagnostic accuracy, even for early stage of cancer. Improving capability to screen breast cancer is an important on-going research effort, as breast cancer represents a leading cancer with high incidence rate.
Methods: In this single-blind study, 22 breast cancer patients and 25 healthy individuals were recruited at Changhai Hospital of Shanghai. Histopathological examination results of breast cancer patients were collected, 22 cases were diagnosed as infiltrating ductal carcinoma of breast, of which 10 patients were stage I breast cancer. 25 individuals were confirmed healthy after physical examinations. Peripheral blood was drawn in EDTA tubes For CDA tests. CDA data of 22 breast cancer patients and 25 healthy individuals were conducted using SPSS, and the results were shown in the table below.
Results: The average CDA of breast cancer, stageIbreast cancer, and controls were 43.20, 44.17 and 36.17 (rel. units) respectively as shown in Table 1. Both breast cancer and stage I breast cancer could be significantly distinguished from the control (p = 0.000, p = 0.001, respectively). For stage I breast cancer vs. control group, Area under ROC curve was 0.876, sensitivity and specificity were both 80.0% (Table 2). In contrast to traditional breast cancer screening methodologies which have relatively low sensitivity and high false positives for stage I detection, often with radiation side effects and high costs, advantages of CDA technology include ability to detect early stage cancer with relatively high sensitivity and specificity, and it is also highly cost effective without side effects.
Conclusions: Initial results showed that CDA technology could effectively distinguish stageIbreast cancer from healthy individuals, CDA could be a potential candidate for breast cancer screening.
