【Objective】 To study the effect of macrophage mediator 1 (MED1) deficiency on atherosclerosis in female mice. 【Methods】 ApoE knockout (ApoE-/-), LDLR knockout (LDLR-/-), MED1fl/fl, and macrophage MED1 knockout (MED1△Mac) mice were recruited in the study. Two types of mouse model were constructed:ApoE and macrophage MED1 double knockout (MED1△Mac/ApoE-/-) mice and their littermate controls (MED1fl/fl/ApoE-/-). ② LDLR knockout (LDLR-/-) mice receiving bone marrow from MED1△Mac (MED1△Mac→LDLR-/-) or MED1fl/fl (MED1fl/fl→LDLR-/-) mice. Female mice from these two models were fed a Western diet (21% fat and 0.15% cholesterol) for 12 weeks to promote the development of atherosclerosis. Body weight, total cholesterol (TC), and total triglyceride (TG) content in plasma were measured dynamically. After Western diet feeding for 12 weeks, aortic tree and aortic root were collected and hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) and oil red O staining were performed. 【Results】 Plasma TC and TG did not significantly differ between MED1fl/fl/ApoE-/- control group and MED1△Mac/ApoE-/-experimental group. However, the plaque area in aortic tree and aortic root was significantly increased in MED1△Mac/ApoE-/-mice. Moreover, compared with that in MED1fl/fl→LDLR-/- control group, the plaque area of aortic tree and aortic root had an increasing trend in MED1△Mac→LDLR-/- mice group. 【Conclusion】 MED1 deficiency in macrophages promotes the development of atherosclerosis in female ApoE or LDLR knockout mice.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of transcervical non-inflatable endoscopic thyroidectomy through the posterior inferior sternocleidomastoid approach. Methods:From December 2022 to May 2023, the clinical data of 35 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma treated by transcervical non-inflatable endoscopic surgery via posterior inferior sternocleidomastoid approach were retrospectively analyzed. There were 14 males and 21 females, with an average age of 44.7 years. The operation time, bleeding volume, postoperative recovery, complications and follow-up were recorded. Results:All 35 patients successfully completed the surgery, with an average operation time of 4 hours and 7 minutes, an average bleeding volume of 14 ml, and an average postoperative hospital stay of 3.5 days. There were no serious complications and no obvious neck discomfort during postoperative follow-up. Conclusion:Transcervical non-inflatable endoscopic thyroidectomy via posterior inferior sternocleidomastoid approach is safe and effective, with fast postoperative recovery,high appearance satisfaction and good neck comfort.

Objective@#To evaluate the status of dietary diversity and determinants among school age left behind children.@*Methods@#A total of 501 children aged 9-10 years in Sheyang Mini Cohort Study were enrolled from Sheyang City in Jiangsu Province during 2019. A questionnaires survey was administrated to collect left behind and socioeconomic information. Twenty four hour dietary recall survey was conducted, dietary diversity score (DDS 10 and DDS) and food variety score (FVS) were computed according to Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). Weight and height of children were measured and sex and age standardized body mass index was used to define obesity. Multivariable regression models were preformed to explore the determinants of dietary diversity in school age left behind children.@*Results@#The proportion of left behind children was 40.9%. The mean value and standard deviation of three kinds of dietary diversity score (DDS 10 , DDS, FVS) in left behind children were (5.69±1.31)(6.55±1.44) and (13.48± 4.23 ), respectively. All of these were lower than that in non left behind children (DDS 10 :5.99±1.29; DDS:6.79±1.40; FVS:14.15±4.22). Significant difference in DDS 10 between left behind and non left behind children was observed ( P =0.01). The results of multivariable regression demonstrated that gender, passive smoking, family education level and family economic status were related to dietary diversity scores ( P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#Dietary diversity in school age left behind children was not optimistic and gender, passive smoking, parental education level, family economic status and left behind situation play a critical role in dietary diversity among these children.

Objective:To investigate the diagnostic value of Japan NBI Expert Team (JNET) classification with blue-laser imaging magnifying endoscopy (BLI-ME) for colorectal neoplastic lesions.Methods:Data of 40 colorectal neoplastic lesions in 34 patients that received BLI-ME from September 2016 to December 2018 in Peking University International Hospital were reviewed and endoscopic images from those lesions were selected. Four senior endoscopists analyzed and classified these images according to the JNET criteria and determined the possible pathologic type. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of JNET classification under BLI-ME system were calculated with final pathologic results as the golden standard.Results:Of all the 40 lesions, there were 3 non-cancerous lesions, 20 adenoma, 10 high grade intraepithelial neoplasia/submucosal-superficial lesions and 7 submucosal-deep lesions. The accuracy of 4 endoscopists was 75.00%-87.50%, and 65.38%-95.89% for different JNET types. For each JNET type, the sensitivity was 60.71%-91.67%, specificity was 84.17%-97.73%, PPV was 63.46%-95.89%, and NPV was 88.51%-99.31%. For the 4 endoscopists, the assurance rate of surface pattern was 73.08%-100.00%, 80.77%-100.00% for deciding vascular pattern, and 67.31%-100.00% for deciding final JNET type. The Kappa value between any two endoscopists was 0.630-0.887, and the interclass correlation coefficient for all results was 0.880. Conclusion:JNET classification shows significant diagnostic value under BLI-ME system for colorectal neoplastic lesions.

OBJECTIVE Construct and validate the EGFR-CART (Epidermal growth factor receptor-chimeric antigen receptor T) cells targeting the Fadu cell line of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and provide the preclinical basis for the application of CART cell technology in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma. METHODS EGFR-CART cells and CART-control cells were constructed by lentivirus transfection. The expression of EGFR antibody in CART cells was detected by FACS fluorescence detection, and the expression of EGFR in Fadu cell line and HCT-116 cell line was verified. RESULTS EGFR-CART cells and CART-control cells were successfully constructed, the infection efficiency was about 67%, and there was no significant difference between the two groups in the distribution of cell subsets. HCT-116 is selected as the non target cells of EGFR-CART, Fadu as target cell. CONCLUSION In this study, we successfully prepared and validated the EGFR-CART cells targeting the Fadu cell line of hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and laid the foundation for the application of CART technique in the treatment of hypopharyngeal carcinoma.
