RESUMO
Acheilognathusbarbatulus is distributed in Yangtze River, Yellow River and Pearl River systems in China. Genome data can help to understand the phylogenetic relationships of A.barbatulus, but its complete mitochondrial genome has not been published. We determined the complete mitochondrial genome structure and characteristics of this species and constructed a comprehensive phylogenetic tree, based on mitochondrial genome data of several species of Acheilognathus, Rhodeus and Pseudorasboraparva. The complete length of the mitochondrial genome of A.barbatulus is 16726 bp. The genome is a covalently closed double-stranded circular molecule containing 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNAs, 22 transfer RNAs, a D-loop and a light strand replication initiation region. The base composition of the complete mitochondrial genome is A (29.33%) > T (27.6%) > C (26.12%) > G (16.95%), showing a strong AT preference and anti-G bias. All 13 PCGs have different degrees of codon preference, except for cytochrome c oxidase 1, which uses GTG as the start codon. All the PCGs use ATG as the start codon and the stop codon is dominated by TAG. The encoded amino acids Leu and Ser exist in two types, whereas the rest are all present as one type, except for tRNASer (GCT), which lacks the D-arm and has an incomplete secondary structure, all other tRNAs can be folded to form a typical cloverleaf secondary structure. Based on the 13 PCG tandems, the Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian trees were constructed, based on the concatenated sequence of 13 PCGs for the genera Acheilognathus and Rhodeus, with Pseudorasboraparva as the outgroup. Acheilognathusbarbatulus, Acheilognathustonkinensis and Acheilognathuscf.macropterus were clustered together and the most closely related. The results of this study enrich the mitochondrial genomic data of Acheilognathus and provide molecular and genetic base information for species conservation, molecular identification and species evolution of Acheilognathinae.
RESUMO
Background: Muscle relaxation training is a method of gradually relaxing the whole body by consciously controlling the process of muscle contraction and relaxation, which is mostly used to improve the physical and mental health of breast cancer patients and improve the quality of life of patients. We conducted a systematic review to compare the effects of muscle relaxation training and conventional nursing on the psychological health and quality of life (QoL) of breast cancer patients. The results of this study provide a basis for nursing program selection of breast cancer patients. Methods: The PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, China national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI), WanFang Data, (China Biology Medicine disc) CBM, and WWW.CQVIP.COM (VIP) databases were searched to retrieve articles on randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-RCTs on the effects of muscle relaxation training on the mental health and QoL of breast cancer patients. The search period ran from the establishment of the databases to August 31st, 2021. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and The Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions assessed the risk of bias in the included studies. Stata 15.0 software was then used for the meta-analysis. Results: Funnel plots were analyzed by E Egger's test and Begg's test. The results of the test (P>0.05) showed that the possibility of publication bias was small. A total of 13 RCTs and quasi-RCTs, comprising 1,355 patients, were included in the meta-analysis. The results for the outcome measures were as follows: level of depression [weighted mean difference (WMD) =-9.31, 95% confidence interval (CI): -11.96 to -6.65, level of anxiety (WMD =-8.96, 95% CI: -10.06 to -7.86)], and QoL (WMD =13.13, 95% CI: 7.24, 19.02). The results showed that muscle relaxation training can significantly reduce depression and anxiety in breast cancer patients, improve their quality of life, and can be used as the first choice for breast cancer patients to improve negative emotions. Discussion: Muscle relaxation training significantly reduced the depression and anxiety of breast cancer patients, improved their QoL, and brought about both psychological and QoL improvements.
RESUMO
Lake Dali Nur, located in Inner Mongolia, North China, is alkaline, with Triplophysa dalaica one of the three fish species that not only survive, but thrive, in the lake. To investigate the presence of molecular mutations potentially responsible for this adaptation, the whole-genome sequence of the species was sequenced. A total of 126.5 and 106 Gb data, covering nearly 200× of the estimated genome, were generated using long-read sequencing and Hi-C technology, respectively. De novo assembly generated a genome totalled 607.91 Mb, with a contig N50 of 9.27 Mb. Nearly all whole-genome sequences were anchored and oriented onto 25 chromosomes, with telomeres for most chromosomes also being recovered. Repeats comprised approximately 35.01% of the whole genome. A total of 23,925 protein-coding genes were predicted, within which, 98.62% could be functionally annotated. Through comparisons of T. dalaica, T. tibetana, and T. siluroides gene models, a total of 898 genes were identified as likely being subjected to positive selection, with several of them potentially associated with alkaline adaptation, such as sodium bicarbonate cotransporter, SLC4A4. Demographic analyses suggested that the Dali population might have diverged from endemic freshwater Hai River populations, approximately 1 Ma. The high-quality T. dalaica genome, created in this study, not only aids in the analyses of alkaline adaptation, but may also assist in revealing the mysteries of the highly divergent genus Triplophysa in the future.
