RESUMO
The fall armyworm (FAW), Spodoptera frugiperda, is a destructive pest native to America and has recently become an invasive insect pest in China. Because of its rapid spread and great risks in China, understanding of FAW genetic background and pesticide resistance is urgent and essential to develop effective management strategies. Here, we assembled a chromosome-level genome of a male FAW (SFynMstLFR) and compared re-sequencing results of the populations from America, Africa, and China. Strain identification of 163 individuals collected from America, Africa and China showed that both C and R strains were found in the American populations, while only C strain was found in the Chinese and African populations. Moreover, population genomics analysis showed that populations from Africa and China have close relationship with significantly genetic differentiation from American populations. Taken together, FAWs invaded into China were most likely originated from Africa. Comparative genomics analysis displayed that the cytochrome p450 gene family is extremely expanded to 425 members in FAW, of which 283 genes are specific to FAW. Treatments of Chinese populations with twenty-three pesticides showed the variant patterns of transcriptome profiles, and several detoxification genes such as AOX, UGT and GST specially responded to the pesticides. These findings will be useful in developing effective strategies for management of FAW in China and other invaded areas.

Objective To investigate the construction and application in practice of information process management system in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods From August 2017 to November 2017,the clinical data of the 597 patients with suspected stroke received green channel treatment for stroke and incorporated into the information process management system at the Cerebrovascular Disease Center,Changhai Hospital,the Second Military Mcdical University were analyzed retrospectively.The operation status and operational efficiency of each link in the AIS treatment process were evaluated.The performance assessment indicators for stroke nurses and visiting doctors were developed.The accuracy and missed diagnosis of stroke determined by the stroke nurses were calculated.The operation ability of stroke nurses was evaluated by the doctor's arrival at triage desk to establishment of intravenous access time and signing of informed consent to rt-PA bolus time,with less than 10 min as the standard.The emergency response capability of consultation physicians was evaluated by calling consultation physician to arriving at the triage desk and establishing venous channel to transport to the CT room time,with less than 5 min as the standard.The standard-reaching rate was calculated.Results A total of 597 patients were prechecked as suspected stroke.Among them,549 patients with stroke were judged by doctors,430 established venous access,443 were transported to CT room,441 completed CT scan,and 52 were treated with venous thrombolysis.In the process,the median time of patients to hospital to doctor to triage desk,doctor to triage desk to establishment of venous channel,establishment of venous channel to transportion to CT room to completion of CT scan,completion of CT scan to rt-PA bolus,patients to hospital to completion of CT scan and patients to hospital to rt-PA bolus was 3 (1,5),8 (3,16),3 (2,5),3 (2,9),9 (3,22),20(10,30) and 27 (19,55) min,respectively.The stroke nurses determined the accuracy and misdiagnosis rate of stroke were 92.0% (549/597) and 8.4% (50/597) respectively.The standard-reaching rate of doctor to triage desk to establishment of venous channel,signing informed consent to rt-PA bolus time were 82.1% (353/430) and 80.8% (42/52) respectively.The standard-reaching rates of calling consultation doctor to doctor to triage desk,establishment of venous channel to transportion to CT room time were 94.5% (564/597) and 91.4% (405/443) respectively.Conclusion A process management system centered on "time management" may help analyze the efficiency of various links and personnel in the AIS treatment process,and optimize the process continuously.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the effects of quality supervision and continuous improvement system on optimizing in-hospital diagnosis and treatment process in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods From September 2013 to May 2016,424 consecutive patients with AIS treated with intravenous thrombolysis and/or endovascular therapy in Changhai Hospital,the Second Military Medical University were enrolled retrospectively.They were analyzed according to the annual running process (the first year[from September 2013 to August 2014],the second year[from September 2014 to August 2015],and the third year[from September 2015 to May 2016]).The spend time and delay (DTN>60 min,DTP>90 min) rate of each treatment process in the first,second,and third year (time from door-to-imaging[DTI],door-to-needle[DTN],imaging-to-needle (ITN),door-to-groin puncture (DTP) and imaging-to-groin puncture (ITP) were compared.Taking the time periods (>median) of having significant differences of the spend time of the treatment processes as the dependent variables in the first,second,and third year,the influence of the years and treatment modalities on delay was observed.The difference of constituent ratio of the reasons for delay in intravenous thrombolysis and endovascular therapy (objective reasons/other reasons) in different years were analyzed.Results (1) DTIs were 23.0 (11.0,42.0) min,22.0 (10.1,39.0) min,and 13.0 (6.0,27.0) min,respectively,and DTNs were 50.0 (30.0,77.1) min,45.0 (30.0,70.2) min,and 36.0 (24.0,57.0) min,respectively in the first,second,and third year.The spending time was shortened year by year.There were significant differences among the different years (all P0.05).(2) The DTN delay rates were 33.3% (40/120),20.7% (29/140),and 8.1% (9/111),respectively in the first,second,and third year.There were significant differences among the 3 years (x2=22.111,P0.05).(4) During the three years,the delay of intravenous thrombolysis was mainly due to objective reasons.The constituent ratio of other reasons caused delay of intravenous thrombolysis was decreased year by year.There was no other reasons for delay in the third year).There was no significant difference in the constituent ratio of the delay reasons in endovascular treatment (x2=3.622,P=0.164).Conclusion Under the existing process and resource allocation,setting the DTN target time and implementing continuous quality improvement are conducive to the effective implementation of brain CT scan and continuous optimization of intravenous thrombolysis in the processes in AIS patients with the first diagnosis.
RESUMO
Objective To study the role of risk factors associated with hemodynamics in patients with intracranial artery stenosis.Methods Eighteen patients with local stenosis of middle cerebral artery were recruited in this study retrospectively.According to patients′clinical symptoms and magnetic resonance imaging findings, they were divided into the symptomatic group (n=13) and the asymptomatic group (n=5).Wall shear stress ( WSS) , oscillatory shear index ( OSI) , velocity and pressure of the stenotic artery wall were compared between the two groups after reconstructing 3-dimentional model of hemodynamics.Then related risk factors of hemodynamics were analyzed in symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.Results There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the parameters such as age, sex, degree of artery stenosis, mean arterial pressure and some medical histories of hypertension and diabetes.The results showed obvious changes of hemodynamics in local artery stenosis.The WSS(78.69(68.15,117.65) Pa vs 39.34(22.76,60.54) Pa,U=4,P=0.003), pressure of the stenotic artery wall (1 815.14(1 242.44,4 398.84) Pa vs 735.55(361.17,1 528.78) Pa,U =7,P=0.010)and velocity of the local stenosis(3.87(2.58, 4.52) m/s vs 2.31(1.38,3.12) m/s,U=12,P=0.046) in the symptomatic group were much higher than those in the asymptomatic group; however, there were no significant differences between the two groups in OSI.Conclusions Hemodynamic features do exist in local intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.The WSS, wall pressure and velocity of the local stenosis may be vital risk factors associated with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.
RESUMO
Objective To study the prognostic influencing factors for intravenous thrombolysis combined with endovascular interventional therapy in patients with acute moderate to severe cerebral infarction. Methods From September 2013 to December 2015,the clinical data of 179 patients with moderate to severe acute cerebral infarction treated with intravenous thrombolysis combined with endovascular interventional therapy at the Cerebrovascular Disease Center,Shanghai Changhai Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. They were all treated with intravenous thrombolysis combined at least 1 endovascular interventional therapy (intra-arterial thrombolysis,mechanical thrombectomy or stenting)within 4. 5 h after onset. The patients with mRS ≤2 were divided into a good prognosis group (n = 71),those with 3≤mRS≤ 6 were divided into a poor prognosis group (n = 108)according to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores after 3 months of treatment. The clinical data of both groups were analyzed,including age,sex,previous history,the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)score and Alberta stroke program early CT score (ASPECTS)immediately before and after treatment. The influencing factors of prognosis were further analyzed with multivariate Logistic regression analysis. Results The rate of good prognosis was 39. 7%(71 / 179). There were significant differences in age,history of transient ischemic attack at 1 week before the disease onset,the NIHSS score,and ASPECTS score before thrombolysis (62 ± 14 years vs. 71 ± 11 years,8. 4% (6 / 71)vs. 1. 9% (2 / 108),16 ± 6 vs. 19 ± 6,and 9. 5 ± 1. 0 vs. 8. 5 ± 1. 9,respectively;all P 0. 05). There were significant differences in the NIHSS score immediately after treatment,24 h intracranial hemorrhage transformation,and intraparenchymal hemorrhage between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group (10 ± 3 vs. 15 ± 7,7. 0%[5 / 71]vs. 28. 7%[31 / 108],and 0 vs. 12. 0%[13 / 108];all P < 0. 01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the age (OR,1. 047,95% CI 1. 014 -1. 081;P = 0. 005),NIHSS score immediately after treatment (OR,1. 121,95% CI 1. 050 -1. 196;P =0. 001)were the prognostic risk factors for intravenous thrombolysis combined with endovascular interven-tional therapy for moderate to severe cerebral infarction. The ASPECTS on admission (OR,0. 382,95% CI 0. 233 -0. 627;P < 0. 01)was the protective factor. Conclusions The age and the NIHSS score immediately after treatment are the prognostic risk factors for intravenous thrombolysis combined with endovascular inter-ventional therapy for moderate to severe cerebral infarction. With the increase of age and the NIHSS score after treatment,the prognosis of patients is even worse. With the increase of ASPECTS score at admission,the prognosis is better.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the effect of the changes of hospital diagnosis and treatment mode on the treatment time in patients with acute ischemic stroke before and after the establishment of Cerebrovascular Disease Center. Methods A total of 103 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neurology,Changhai Hospital,the Second Military Medical University between June 2008 and December 2012 were enrolled retrospectively. Thirty-one of them were excluded because of incomplete medical records. Finally,72 patients were enrolled as a control group and received series diagnosis and treatment mode. A total of 210 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Cerebrovascular Disease Center,Changhai Hospital,the Second Military Medical University from September 2013 to February 2015 were enrolled retrospectively. Thirteen patients were excluded (4 patients with recurrent transient ischemic attack were treated with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator,9 without complete data were treated with intravenous thrombolysis),197 were enrolled as an observation group finally,and they were received series diagnosis and treatment mode. The patients of both groups were visited within 4. 5 h after onset and received rt-PA treatment. The time-consuming changes of each time period from onset-to-door,door-to-imaging,imaging-to-needle,door-to-needle,and onset-to-needle time between the control group and the observation group were compared and analyzed. Results Compared with the control group,the door-to-imaging,imaging-to-needle,door-to-needle and onset-to-needle time were significantly shorter in the observation group. There were significant difference between the 2 groups (24 ± 12 min vs. 60 ± 20 min,27 ± 12 min vs. 62 ± 31 min,51 ± 17 min vs. 122 ± 52 min,and 153 ± 69 min vs. 230 ± 81 min,all P 0. 05). Conclusion The establishment of cerebral vascular disease center and the improvement of the processes have shortened the treatment time in patients with acute ischemic stroke within time window. The time from onset-to-door is still longer,and the propaganda and education of stroke should be strengthened.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of mechanical thrombectomy device Solitaire AB for the treatment of distal occlusion of the intracranial artery caused acute anterior circulation ischemic stroke. Methods The clinical data of 9 patients with arterial occlusion of distal anterior circulation treated by using the Solitaire AB thrombectomy device were analyzed retrospectively. Seven of them had M2 middle cerebral artery occlusion and 2 had A3 occlusion. Their clinical features,imaging data,treatment,and the results of 3-month clinical follow-up were analyzed. The effectiveness of treatment was evaluated through the recanalization rate after stent thrombectomy,the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS)scores before and after treatment,the modified Rankin scale (mRS)scores,and the 3-month clinical follow-up results. The surgery-related complications and mortality of patients were used to evaluate the safety of the treatment. Results (1 )Of the 9 intracranial arterial occlusions,8 were recanalized successfully. The modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI)was 2b or grade 3. (2)The NIHSS score median 9. 5 (3. 0,15. 5)at discharge dropped significantly compared with 19. 0 (16. 0,22. 0)before procedure. (Z=2. 703,P=0. 007). No permanent complications related to operation occurred. Four of the recanalized patients had good prognosis (mRS 0-1)and 4 had disability (mRS 3-4 ). The mRS score of one non-recanalized patient was 4 at the 3 months follow-up. Conclusion The embolectomy effect is good whom using Solitaire AB device for acute occlusion occurred in the intracranial artery M2 or A3 segment. Its efficacy,safety,and indications still need to be further explored in a larger sample controlled trial.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of emergency bedside-echocardiography in neonatal intensive care unit.Methods Six hundred and sixty-eight infants with cardiac pathological murmurs,cyanosis and shortness of breath were detected by emergency bedside echocardiography (Sonosite Micromax 1 portable ultrasound or Philips iE33 ultrasonic systems) during January 2007 to July 2011.The accuracy of emergency bedside-echocardiography in the diagnosis of neonatal heart diseases was evaluated according to the results of surgical exploration.Results Among 668 enrolled neonates with the mean age of (7.2±1.3) d,there were 347 males and 321 females,and 309 term infants [mean gestational age (39.1±0.6) weeks (37.0~42.1 weeks)] and 359 premature infants [mean gestational age (33.7±0.91) weeks (28.9~36.9 weeks)].Totally,507 cases were found cardiac abnormality by emergency bedside-echocardiography,including 268 cases of patent ductus arteriosus (232 premature and 36 term infants),115 congenital heart disease,99 persistent fetal circulation and 25 arrythmia.Surgeries were performed on 54 infants and invasive therapy was performed on one infant,and none of them received CT,magnetic resonance imaging or invasive examinations before operation; among which,51 surgeries successed and 4 infants died.Other 452 infants were treated with medications,392 infants recovered and discharged,26 infants did not recover,14 cases died and 20 cases left the hospital before recovery.The accuracy rate of Micromax 1 portable ultrasound in diagnosing congenital heart diseases was 94.5% (52/55),while 96.4 % (53/55) for philips iE33 ultrasonic systems.Conclusions Emergency bedside-echocardiography could provide instant and valuable information of cardiovascular system,which would be helpful in making quick clinical decisions.
RESUMO
Objeclive To analyze the occurrence characteristics of stenosis or occlu-sion in guilty artery in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Methods The data of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) of 304 patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease were analyzed retrospectively, in which there were 188 patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) and 116 patients with cerebral infarction. Guilty arteries were identified, and the length of stenotic segment and severity of stenosis were measured. Results Of the 304 patients, 227 (74. 7%) had cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion. 193 (85.0%) identified guilty arteries, in which 104 (53.9%) were in extracranial artery only, 70 (36. 3%) were in intracranial artery only, and 19 (9. 8%) were in both intra- and extracranial arteries, The incidence of cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion (97/116, 82.9%) in the cerebral infarction group was significantly higher than that in the TIA group (130/188, 68.8%) (P <0. 01); the incidence of extracranial vascular lesions in posterior circulation in the TIA group was significantly higher than that in the cerebral infarction group (24.3% vs. 7.0%, P < 0. 01); and the incidence of intracranial vascular lesions in anterior circulation in the cerebral infarction group was significantly higher than that in the TIA group (32.6% vs. 20.6%, P <0. 01). However, there yeas no significant difference bergen the TIA group and the cerebral infarction group in the length of stenosis and severity of guilty artery. Conclusions Cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion in the in the cerebral infarction group is more common than that in the TIA group. The extracranial artery lesions in posterior circulation is more common in the TIA group, and the intracranial artery lesions in anterior circulation is more common in the cerelral infarction group, while the severity of cerebral ischemia is not associated with the stenosis degree and length of guilty artery.
RESUMO
Objective To analyze the clinical manifestations of early cerebral ischemic lesions after stenting with WingSpan system for symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis, and to evaluate the early effects and safety of the stenting therapy. Methods Twenty-nine consecutive patients with symptomatic intracranial stenosis underwent diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) before and after stenting (within 72 hours). The clinical data, including patients' general condition, stenting procedures and newly-developed cerebral ischemic lesions, were recorded. Neurological defect was estimated with NIHSS, the safety and early outcome of stenting were evaluated. Results The degree of stenosis was reduced from a mean baseline of (72.3 ± 10.7)% to (31.9 ± 13.6)% immediately after stenting. The technical success rate was 100%. The total eomplicatiom nate was 17.2%. And among them, z were symptomatic (6.9%). Sixty-three ischemic lesions were demonstrated on DWI in 13 patients (44.8%). Among them, 11 (84.6%) were asymptomatic. Fifty-five newly-developed lesions on DWI (87.3%) were located in the region of stented vessels and 3.2% were situated in the region of branch vessels of stented artery. Conclusion DWI is of great value in assessing the safety of intracranial stenting procedures. The treatment of symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis by using WingSpan system is safe and effective. Newly-developed ischemic lesions can be well detected on DWI and should receive physician's attention, although most ischemic lesions are asymptomatic. Long-term outcome of this treatment needs to be further observed.
RESUMO
The de novo transcription of hTERT gene represents a rate-limiting step in the activation of human telomerase.The expression of hTERT is strictly regulated with several oncogene products and tumor suppressor gene products in normal cells.The construction of a reverse-transcriptional virus vector that contains the promoter of hTERT without losing its specificity can dramatically augment the expressions of anticancer genes in telomerase-positive cancer cells,which prompts the use of an hTERT promoter for anticancer gene therapies.Firstly,we briefly introduce the structure and regulation of hTERT gene,and then we also review the present knowledge of its biological function in cancer progression.

RESUMO
2(38.2 vs 34.4 months, P=0.214).The 1, 2 and 3-year local control rates were 84.0%, 72.9% and 56.7%, respectively.Conclusion:When given a sufficient combination of modality treatment for selected elderly patients with esophageal carcinoma, the tolerance and therapeutic efficacy were not significantly worse than those of younger patients.Therefore, combined chemoradiotherapy for elderly patients is worthy of further study.
RESUMO
The study and discussion of the establishment,continuance,and termination of physician-patient relationship from a legal point of view is of great significance for establishing a harmonious physician-patient relationship,standardizing the rights and duties on both sides,and regulating doctors' clinical practice.The physician-patient relationship is a special type of contractual relationship,whose establishment needs the patients' requirement,doctors' commitment,and the consistence and acknowledgement expressed or implied by both sides.But the patients with acute diseases or dangerously ill or the patients with Class A infectious diseases are exceptions.In the physician-patient relationship,patients enjoy more rights and doctors assume more duties.In the continuance of physician-patient relationship,principles of the bilateral equality and negotiated consensus should be followed.The physician-patient relationship should be terminated when the doctors have fulfilled their duties or the occurrence of statutory causes.
