Objective:To explore the potential application of combining 18F-FDG PET imaging and radiomics in the diagnosis of Parkinson′s disease (PD) and atypical parkinsonian syndromes (APS). Methods:A total of 154 subjects of two cohorts (training set and validation set) were enrolled from Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from March 2015 to August 2020 in this cross-sectional study, including 40 normal controls (NC; 23 males and 17 females, age: (60.2±10.5) years), 40 PD patients (20 males and 20 females, age: (64.7±6.3) years), 40 progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) patients (20 males and 20 females, age: (64.1±5.9) years), and 34 multiple system atrophy (MSA) patients (19 males and 15 females, age: (65.0±9.2) years). 18F-FDG PET images and clinical scale were selected, and one-way analysis of variance was used to compare differences of clinical scale among groups. Radiomic features extraction and feature selection were carried out. Two and three classification models were constructed based on logistic regression, and the ROC curves of clinical model, radiomics model and combined model were calculated. Independent classification tests were conducted 100 times with 5-fold cross validation in two cohorts. Results:There were significant differences in the scores of unified PD Rating Scale (UPDRS) and Hoehn-Yahr rating scale (H&Y) among different groups in cohort 1 and cohort 2 respectively ( F values: 4.83-17.95, all P<0.05). A total of 2 444 imaging features were extracted from each subject, and after features selection, 15 features for classification were obtained. In the two classification experiment, the AUCs of the three models in binary classification of PD/MSA/PSP/NC group were 0.56-0.68, 0.74-0.93 and 0.72-0.93, respectively. The classification effects of the radiomics model were significantly better than those of the clinical model ( z values: 1.71-2.85, all P<0.05). In the three classification experiment, the sensitivity of the radiomics model reached 80%, 80% and 77% for PD, MSA and PSP, respectively. Conclusion:18F-FDG imaging combined with radiomics has potential in the diagnosis of PD and APS.

The provision of hospice care can improve the quality of life for terminal patients. Currently the measurement tools for knowledge, attitudes and practices(KAP)of hospice care providers have been developed and widely used internationally. This article reviews the measurement scales and relevant factors for KAP of hospice care to provide reference for further studies. The databases of CNKI, Wanfang data, PubMed, Web of Science databases, Google and Baidu search engines were systematically searched. According to the retrieval strategy, 42 literatures were finally included for analysis. The development of measurement scales and influencing factors about KAP of medical staff were reviewed from the included studies. It appeared some mature scales have been applied in different extent, or available for interpretation into different language versions. Most of researches adopted quantitative tools to measure medical staff's KAP on hospice care. The current researches conducted in China mainland showed a change on target population from nurses to specialized doctors and from a single group to multidisciplinary medical team. In the future, it would be more focusing on multidisciplinary team mainly comprised of general practitioners, nurses and social workers. Till recently, there is little literature evidence for study of the characteristics of localization.

Background:Functional dyspepsia (FD)with anxiety and gastric hypersensitivity is still one of the therapeutic difficulties in clinic. Gastrodin (Gas)may have dual effects of modulating gastric sensitivity and anxiety. Aims:To investigate the effect of Gas on gastric sensitivity and anxiety-like behavior in FD with anxiety-like gastric hypersensitivity in rats. Methods:Forty rats were randomly divided into control group,model group,buspirone group,low-dose Gas group and high-dose Gas group. Maternal separation,acute gastric irritation and restraint stress were sequentially performed to induce FD model with anxiety-like gastric hypersensitivity. At the 8th week,rats in control group and model group were intraperitoneally injected with 0. 9% NaCl solution 2. 0 mL/ kg,rats in buspirone group were given buspirone 3. 125 mg/kg,and rats in low- and high-dose Gas groups were given 62. 5,125. 0 mg/ kg Gas,respectively. The course was 7 days. Then elevated plus maze (EPM),open field test,abdominal withdrawal reflex (AWR)and electromyography (EMG) were performed. Results:Compared with control group,EPM test showed that proportions of open arms entries and duration were significantly decreased (P < 0. 01);open field test showed that virtual central grids duration (P < 0. 05),number of virtual grids climbed and times of lifting were significantly decreased (P < 0. 01);when gastric balloon dilatation pressure was equal or greater than 40 mm Hg,AWR score,area under ROC curve (AUC)of EMG was significantly increased in model group (P < 0. 05). Compared with model group,above-mentioned indices in low- and high-dose Gas groups were significantly ameliorated (P < 0. 05). Conclusions:Gas could influence the gastric sensitivity and anxiety-like behavior of the brain-stomach axis regulated anxiety-like gastric hypersensitivity in FD rat model.

Objective To construct eukaryotic enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) expressing recombinant plasmid, pEGFP-C1-hnRNP A1, which contains coding sequence of human hnRNP A1 (heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleo-protein A1), and to perform cellular localization analysis of EGFP tagged hnRNP A1 under stress. Methods Total RNA was isolated from HeLa cell used for synthesis of first-strand cDNAs using reverse primers that are specific for the 3′-un-translated region of hnRNP A1. hnRNP A1 gene fragments were then amplified by touch-down PCR from those cDNAs and inserted into pEGFP-C1 fluorescent bearing vector through EcoRⅠ/BamHⅡdouble enzyme digestion and T4 DNA Ligase connection. The recombinant pEGFP-C1-hnRNP A1 plasmid was transfected into HeLa cells and green fluorescent tagged fusion proteins was examined by Western blot and confocal fluorescence microscopy. Co-localization of EGFP-hnRNP A 1 with poly (A)+mRNA (the marker of the stress granules), or DCP1a (the marker of processome) were detected by RNA fluores-cence in situ hybridization and immunofluorescence. Results The pEGFP-C1-hnRNP A1 was sequenced and digested cor-rectly by restriction single/double enzyme. The green fluorescent fusion protein was also detected in transfected HeLa cell by Western blot and confocal fluorescence microscopy. EGFP-hnRNP A1 co-localizes with poly(A)+mRNA, but not DCP1a. Conclusion Recombinant eukaryotic plasmid of pEGFP-C1-hnRNP A1 was constructed successfully and expressed effec-tively. EGFP tagged hnRNP A1 takes part in forming stress granules.
